Who This Is For
This update is for users who build:
Company-based workflows
Custom object-based workflows
It is especially useful for businesses that need to automate calculations using company data or custom object fields without relying on manual processes or external tools.
Examples include:
Construction businesses calculating project costs
Agencies calculating retainers or service totals
Membership businesses tracking balances or usage
Businesses using custom objects for products, properties, projects, or subscriptions
What’s New
The Math Operation workflow action is now supported in:
Company-based workflows
Custom object-based workflows
This enhancement allows workflows tied to companies or custom objects to calculate numeric values automatically using the same Math Operation behavior already available in other workflow types.
How Math Operation Works
When a workflow reaches the Math Operation action, Kyrios:
Retrieves the selected numeric values
Performs the selected calculation
Stores the result for use in later workflow steps
The action behavior, operators, and output handling match the existing Math Operation functionality available in other workflow types.
Supported Workflow Types
Math Operation is now supported in:
Company-based workflows
Custom object-based workflows
How to Use Math Operation in Company or Custom Object Workflows
Open a company-based or custom object-based workflow.
Add the Math Operation action.
Select the numeric fields or values to calculate.
Choose the math operation.
Save the result for use in later workflow actions or conditions.
You can use the calculated result in subsequent workflow steps for automation, reporting, or conditional logic.
Example Use Case
A construction business uses a custom object workflow tied to a project object.
The workflow:
Retrieves the project’s material cost
Retrieves the labor cost
Uses a Math Operation action to add both values together
Stores the total project cost for later workflow actions
This allows the business to automate project calculations without manual data entry or external tools.
Why This Matters
Businesses can now automate calculations directly inside more workflow types without:
Switching between objects
Creating manual calculation steps
Using external workarounds
This improves workflow flexibility and keeps automation logic centralized inside Kyrios.
Common Issues and Fixes
Math Operation is not available in the workflow
Verify the workflow is either:
A company-based workflow
A custom object-based workflow
The action is only available in supported workflow types.
Calculation result is incorrect
Ensure the selected fields contain numeric values. Non-numeric or empty values may affect calculation results.
Result cannot be used later in the workflow
Confirm the calculation result is being stored correctly and referenced in supported downstream workflow actions or conditions.
FAQ
Can I use Math Operation in company workflows?
Yes. Math Operation is now fully supported in company-based workflows.
Can I use Math Operation with custom object fields?
Yes. You can calculate values stored on custom object records using the Math Operation action.
Does this use the same Math Operation behavior as other workflows?
Yes. The functionality and behavior are consistent with the existing Math Operation action available in other workflow types.
Can I use the calculation result later in the workflow?
Yes. The calculated value can be used in later workflow steps, conditions, or automations.
