6.14 JavaScript Label

JavaScript Label

The JavaScript label field type allows you to enter your own javascript commands that function within the tab. The script shown above will calculate the age of a client based on their date of birth. 

JavaScript fields can be used in a variety of ways: they can carry out calculations, edit the UI and provide advanced formatting options dependent on the values saved in the fields present in the tab. Unlike on save and on load scripting, JavaScript labels only function in the tab they are present in, so cannot be used when creating documents or reports.

This screenshot shows the field above in the contact tab. The calculation is carried out using the "Date of Birth" field above and the result is displayed in the JavaScript field. 

To see what else you can do with JavaScript labels, take a look at our examples here.
