In keeping with the theme of checkboxes and formulas, we provide an easy way to create a checkbox formula field using Visualforce: the checkbox tag with the disabled attribute:
First, the Apex controller method:
public boolean checkformula(){ boolean b = [insert formula here]; return b; } |
And the visualforce code:
< apex:inputCheckbox disabled = "true" value = "{!checkformula}" /> |
That's it! Of course, there are many ways to set up the Apex method, but the important piece is the Visualforce markup. By using a tag usually associated with an edit page but making it disabled, the checkbox becomes an output field.
