How to Use Calculation Fields?
Step 1: Add Calculation Field
Navigate to the Form Builder, then click on “Add Elements”, then select the “Calculation” field.
This field will perform calculations based on the previous form inputs from the user.

Adjust the label of the calculation field to match the purpose of your form.
For example, you can change the label to "Total Cost" for a payment form, or "Estimated Monthly Payment" for a loan calculator form.

The calculation fields will automatically perform math on submissions, giving users accurate results instantly.
