You see a different formula editor if your recipe was converted from Data Prep Classic
to Data Prep and your formulas couldn’t automatically upgrade. You’re still able to edit and use
these formulas, but to get the most formula options through EA-SQL and best experience, recreate
the formula in the Data Prep recipe editor.

Edit CRM Analytics Dataflows OR Edit Dataset Recipes
In a Data Prep recipe that was converted from Data Prep Classic to Data Prep, select a

A formula that was not converted automatically looks like this. Continue to use
these instructions to upgrade or edit your formula.
To edit your formula without upgrading, make your edits following the same syntax used
when the formula was originally written. Do not select to switch to the SQL editor.
If needed, change the label of the calculated column.
When you have completed the formula, click Apply to add the
transformation to the Transform node.
The new formula column appears in the recipe preview.

Numeric Operators and Functions for Unconverted Formulas Use numeric functions to calculate values from measures in your recipe. For example, you can round, truncate, and determine the absolute value of a number. The arguments for numeric functions can be numbers or measure columns. If your recipe was upgraded to Data Prep, but your recipe doesn’t convert, this topic is for your unconverted recipe.
String Functions for Unconverted Formulas Use string functions to create values based on other strings. For example, you can change the casing of text strings, concatenate values from multiple columns, and replace values. The arguments for string functions must be text strings or dimension columns.
