Functions
Data Management contains numerous predefined expressions called functions. A function performs a very specific operation. For example, the function UpperCase changes the capitalization of all text strings in the field value to upper case. Functions make it very easy to design and develop complex analyses and calculations.
Functions accept one or more inputs, and generate a single value. Functions can be overloaded—that is, the same function name may accept different argument types. The arguments must be entered using a specific syntax.
