Important: Use the code injector in the formula builder. if your code requires additional instructions (such as when processing dates), you should wrap all your statements in an arrow function definition (() => '.

PropertyString`Project name` + ' - ' + sequenceId`document` if your logic can be expressed in a single expression, you can type it directly in the formula builder, for example:.

General rule: the JavaScript code defining a formula must be made of one, and only one, expression. You can use either in your formulas, but we recommended taking account of the following considerations.

multiple instructions, wrapped in an arrow function.
