Passed formula 4.8.3.5
A vote session can result in either ‘Passed’ or ‘Not passed’. If the Quorum formula is used and the result is
“true” being ‘Quorum obtained’ the result is calculated based on the formula specified in the Passed field.
If the result of the formula is ‘true’ the result is ‘Passed’
If the result of the formula is anything else than ‘true’ the result is ‘Not passed
If Quorum was not obtained the result is always ‘Not passed – Quorum not met’ regardless of the result of
this calculation.
The result of the Passed formula is displayed on the various vote result screens right after finishing the
vote session. ‘Passed’ is in clear green colour and ‘Not passed’ in clear red colour.
Please refer to the paragraph “Use of Voting Group parameter” for details about the variables to use.
Here are some different examples that show ways of calculating:
Example 5
Passed if Yes votes are more than No votes
Total1>Total3
Example 6
Passed if Yes votes are more than No+Abstain
votes
Total1>Total2+Total3
Example 7
We have exactly 120 appointed Members and
more than half of them must vote Yes
regardless of how many of them are present
during the voting:
sum(Vote1) > 60
Example 8
Exactly half or more of the present delegates
must vote Yes:
sum(Vote1) >= (sum(Present) / 2)

user must specify a header label, colour and a width. The widths are used on the CUA and CDA Result
