A button to precalculate all formula fields

[dkvartal]

Its will be very useful to have ability to calculate all fields which set with formula when a user creating new object. A button "Recalculate" near Save and Cancel buttons for example

There's no point in this. When a record is created, formula is calculated upon creation. Before record is created, it's not possible to calculate anything.

Formula is a "user friendly" way to create back end hooks without regular php coding, so as yuri explained, it requires a record to exist.

If you are looking for a way to use calculated fields before a record exists you could create a dynamic handler for the entity and write your computation logic there instead of using formula.

You can learn about the dynamic handler class in these posts:
