Plan Fields - Configure a Financial Rollup Field

  • Updated

This article explains how to configure Financial Rollup fields in OnePlan. Financial Rollup fields allow administrators to create calculated plan fields that automatically summarize Financial Plan data and surface those totals in plan details and portfolio views.

What you will accomplish
By the end of this article, you will be able to create and configure a Financial Rollup field to display financial totals based on cost type, date range, and optional filters.


Requirements

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • A OnePlan account with Administrator permissions
  • Access to the Front End Plan Details configuration experience
  • At least one Financial Plan configured with cost data

Background

Financial Rollup fields are a special type of Plan Field designed for high‑level financial reporting. Instead of entering values manually, these fields calculate totals automatically from Financial Plans.

Once configured, Financial Rollup fields can be reused across plans to ensure consistent reporting and can be displayed directly in:

  • Plan Details forms
  • Portfolio List views

These fields are especially useful for executive reporting, portfolio reviews, and financial visibility without opening individual Financial Plans.

Important
Financial Rollup fields must be configured from the Front End Plan Details experience. Configuration is not available from Configuration > Fields > Plan Fields in the backend.


Instructions

Access the Plan Field Configuration

  1. Open any plan and go to Plan > Details.
  2. Select the Configure icon. The Form Editor opens. Financial Rollup Access Form Editor.png
