When are the values of Prism calculation fields determined?

The values of Prism calculation fields are determined at the time of publishing. This is the stage in the data processing cycle when all the calculations are finalized, and the data is prepared for use. During the publishing process, the system evaluates all the calculations based on the latest input data and the defined logic in the calculation fields.

It's important to note that while data entry happens beforehand and may influence the data used in calculations, the actual computation and assignment of values to those calculation fields occur only when the data is published. This ensures that all calculations reflect the most current and complete set of data available in the system at that moment, providing accurate outputs for analysis or reporting. This characteristic of Prism ensures that users are working with up-to-date information derived from all adjustments made prior to publishing.
