New to this- can't figure out if this is the table that I'm drawing from

[leecarlton]

Hi, 

 

I have the following expression in one of my reports, and I'm trying to make heads or tails of it. Is it drawing from the table named transcript, and then getting the field named UserDescriptionIndicator? Also confused as to the question mark that appears after it. I looked through our tables, and don't see one named transcript. Not sure where it is drawing that from

 

Thanks for any help. Getting this figured out will save me a lot of time. Only working with smaller formulas up until this point

Code:

$F{transcript}.getUserDescriptionIndicator() ? $F{transcript}.getSchoolCourse().getNumber()+" "+$F{transcript}.getCourseDescription() : ($F{transcript}.getSchoolCourse() != null ? $F{transcript}.getSchoolCourse().getNumber()+" "+$F{transcript}.getSchoolCourse().getDescription() : "")

The snippet provided is using the Field "transcript" and passing it to a Java Class that runs specific methods to return data. Without the class file I can't tell you more.
