Hello:
Is it possible to multiply two list field with flow and store in a diferent list ??
Can I store a calculated list field to a variable? I can´t see the calculated field.
Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @fms,
Could you please share a bit more about your SharePoint list?
Do you want to multiply two fields for a SharePoint list within a flow and store the result in a field of a different list?
I have created a two SharePoint lists on my side and the data structure of it as below:
For your first question, I have made a test on my side and please take a try with the following workaround:
Within Result field of "Create item" action, type the following formula:
mul(triggerBody()?['Multiplier1'],triggerBody()?['Multiplier2'])
The flow works successfully as below:
For your second question, the Calculated field of a SharePoint list is not available in Microsoft Flow, we could not assign a value to the Calculated field or update the value of the Calculated field in Microsoft Flow. So I afraid that there is no way to store a Calculated field to a variable.
In addition, if you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Best regards,
Kris

@v-xida-msft Thank you for your answer.
That is exactly what I tried, but when I want to add the expression to the result filed I receive an error in expresion.
If I copy
mul(triggerBody()?['Multiplier1'],triggerBody()?['Multiplier2'])
to the result field the flow fails because it places as string not an expression.
For the calcualetd field what I want is to store the value in other list field, but I can´t select it.
I am writing a full description of my lists and operations, I will publish in short.
Thanks in advance
My fault.
I was using ";" as separator between arguments in mul() as I use to do in Powerapps (Language Spanish change separatot) instead of ",".
I try with "," as separator and everything works fine.
In relation with calculated columns, what I really want to achive is:
List1 :
columns:
Hours int
PriceperHour int
Total calculated Hours*PriceperHour
List2
columns
Total int
When I create an Item in list1 I want a workflow to create an Item in List2 with List2:Total=List1:Total.
List1:Total is calculated column so everytime I create or update the list this column wil be recalculated in sharepoint online and the workflow will add to list2:Total I don´t need calculations inside the workflow
I can´t find list1:Total to add to list2:total in create item list2 step
Thanks for your answer
Mult() solve (My fault)
I think calculated is also solved because it is not possible right now.
