### Result

Returns OK or error.

### Description

Set whether stored calculations are audited.  
Unstored calculations are always ignored. This setting allows you to disable auditing of stored calculations. Due to field type caching, setting this property does not take effect immediately.  
  
Must be called before first Audit run to take effect. Otherwise cache may mark a field as eligible for audit before the rule is set.  
  
You may best call this in start script of the solution to setup Audit as needed.  
  
For this feature to work, your field needs to have the result of the FieldType() function return a text with "StoredCalc" included. Formula fields are always ignored, but they need to return a field type with "UnstoredCalc" in the text.

    - Changed [Audit.SetIgnoreSummaryFields](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/AuditSetIgnoreSummaryFields.shtml) and [Audit.SetIgnoreCalculations](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/AuditSetIgnoreCalculations.shtml) to clear field cache, so the setting is applied sooner.
