Formula Class

Contains the recalculateFormulas method that updates (recalculates) all formula fields on the input SObjects.

Namespace

System

Usage

Recalculate formula fields on new or queried SObjects. If all data is present on the SObjects, SOQL limits are not affected. If the data required to evaluate a formula field is missing, that data is loaded and limits are changed accordingly.

The new formula values are stored in the SObjects themselves and overwrite previous values of formula fields.

Example

1Account a = new Account();
2a.Name = 'Salesforce';
3a.BillingCity = 'San Francisco';
4List<Account> accounts = new List<Account>{a};
5
6List<FormulaRecalcResult> results = Formula.recalculateFormulas(accounts);
7System.assert(results[0].isSuccess());
8// Option 1
9System.debug('New value: ' + accounts[0].get('My_Formula_Field__c'));
10// Option 2
11System.debug('New value: ' + results[0].getSObject().get(‘My_Formula_Field__c’));
