InServiceNow Reporting,Function Fieldsare used toperform calculations, manipulate text, and transform datain a report. These fields allow users to applyarithmetic operations, coalescing, concatenation, and length calculationson existing data.
Arithmetic Operations- Performaddition, subtraction, multiplication, and divisionon numeric fields.
Coalesce- Combine multiple fields into one (useful for handling NULL values).
Concatenation- Join multiple string fields together (e.g., combining first and last names).
Length Calculation- Measure the length of a text field (e.g., checking character count in a description field).
Function fields aredesigned specifically for calculations and data transformationsin reports.
They allowadvanced data processing without requiring scripting.
