I've got a legacy app from 2003 that's still in use today and showing no
signs of changing. Woo hoo! :-) Now for the question. Say you've got
the following fields:
Cost
Tax
Overhead
Margin (or Markup)
...and the customers want to do different calculations. Customer Jones
wants his cost to be calculated this way:
Jones_Total = (Cost * Tax%) + Overhead (% added) on that subtotal, and
then Markup after that
Customer Smith wants to calculate differently:
Smith_Total = (Cost + Overhead% + Markup) + Tax%
The object variables are all the same, so it's just a matter of
re-arranging the formula per client's desire.
I'm trying to think of a meta-way of doing this, storing code in the
database so I don't hardcode anything in the app. Storing the code in a
TEXT (memo) file and then doing something like EXECSCRIPT or something
similar.
Suggestions?
tia,
