The top-bar calculator: words kept in the math, a variable, and a personal history
The top-bar calculator: words kept in the math, a variable, and a personal history

A quote gets worked out on the phone's calculator, then copied by hand into an email, without the steps. Three weeks later, nobody knows where the figure came from.

The top-bar icon, or Alt+Shift+C, opens a calculator screen. You type the words with the numbers: « 6 (weeks) * 750 $ » gives $4,500.00 and keeps the weeks. As on a real calculator, the result stays in the field: an operator continues from it, a digit starts over.

Tabs do the rest: reverse tax (total back to before taxes, with the rates read from your accounting), hours, margins, a column pasted from a spreadsheet, and business days with Québec's statutory holidays. « 100 USD en CAD » converts at the Bank of Canada's daily rate, and the rate travels with the calculation.

A calculation posts as an internal note to the open record's thread, in your name and with your rights. History and variables stay personal, administrators included. No email is sent.

Comparable to the phone's calculator, but it remembers and explains its figures
