    <title>topic Usage suggestion for eval in Splunk Search</title>
    <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Usage-suggestion-for-eval/m-p/33018#M6985</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;It would be great if "eval" could do multiple evaluations in a single command, in a similar way that "stats" can:&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;stats sum(someField) as "sumField" sum(otherField) as "sumOtherField"
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;

&lt;P&gt;and with eval:&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;... | eval field1=(eval statement) field2=(eval statement)
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;

&lt;P&gt;instead of | eval | eval | eval&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Yes it would but this isn't a question. I suggest you contact support asking for this as an enhancement request.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
