For evaluating some events of my organization, I use two ConfiForms tables:

  1. Database for employees
  2. Database for events with a Smart Multi-select field, recurring on the employees database.

I would like to automatize my reportings. Is there a way to automatically count the values listed in the Multi-select field?

For example, I have the following in mind:

Event

Participants

Count

2024-01-12

John Doe, Jane Doe, Anne Bravo, Charly Sierra, Mike Holiday

5

2024-01-16

Jane Doe, Mike Holiday, Sally Subway

3

  • The column "Participants" shows my Multi-select field values,
  • The column "Count" sould be the counted number of the "Participants" values.


I am happy to receive suggestions for implementation :)

Hi @Ulrich Fries 

You can use "asCount" virtual function on your Participants field

Set field name to 

Participants.asCount

 (on the ConfiForms Field macro)
