Hello, not by default or configuration.

Do you mean on submission form? What is the purpose and what should happen after that?

  • Do you want to store/save the 3rd value in the database?
  • Do you just need a temporary/realtime value as sum?

In custom template you may display summ of 2 fields.

I do not think that calculate it into another filed is good idea. It can be changed.

But it is also posible with custom form template where you can use javascript to do this.
