When writing the script we may sometime want to sum multiple user field value from different user field name (for example FF CP-1A + FF CP-1B +FF CP-2 +... FF CP-9), we would put prefix or suffix on the user field name so that later we can write script with minimum effort. If this is excel all we need to do is to write SIMIF(user field name column, "FF *", user field value column of the name). However, this cannot be done in synchro, we have to write for resource
RESOURCE ASSIGN_UF("Total FF", NUMBER, UFV("CP-1A")+UFV("CP-1B")+UFV("CP-2")+...+ UFV("FF CP-9")). While for TASK it would be
TASK ASSIGN_UF("Total FF", NUMBER, SUM(UFV("CP-1A")*1.0)+SUM(UFV("CP-1B")*1.0)+SUM(UFV("CP-2")*1.0)+...+ SUM(UFV("FF CP-9")*1.0))
If there is a way to cut short the amount of time to write, it would be welcome.

Thank you for submitting this idea. At the moment we are not planning to adjust SYNCHRO Script, but we will consider for possible future implementation.
Kind Regards,
