- You cannot reference a value in a row other than the current row (as opposed to Excel).
- You cannot reference a value in another list or library.
- You cannot reference lookup fields in a formula.
- You cannot reference the ID of a row for a newly inserted row. The ID does not yet exist when the calculation is performed.
