A formula field calculation knows nothing about the context of where the entity is being viewed, or by whom the entity is being viewed, so this is fundamentally not possible. The result of a formula field is always the same for all people\*, no matter the ‘context’ of the entity. \*minor exception is that formulas that result in a datetime value will be localised to the user’s timezone It could be that you might need something like this: > [@Kanban view columns & formulas](https://community.fibery.io/t/kanban-view-columns-formulas/3695): > > Hey guys, Not sure if doable or not but would it be possible to allow defining custom formulas allowing to compute specific indicator based on Kanban columns content? Computed value could be located under the column title (close to the count information when displayed).
