Custom field value = formula result

Is this possible without scripting? Create a custom field that automatically pre-populates its default value based on the result of a formula that uses other field values as input?

The specific idea I have is to set a default expected delivery date in sales order based on the posting date, wherein default value = Posting Date + X days

Taking it one step forward even more, the value of X could be customized by customer or customer type (now this will likely require more work on back end).

Currently there is no way to define a formula without custom client script. But the custom script is pretty simple, you can look at the following example.
https://github.com/webnotes/wnframework/wiki/Client-side-scripting#assign-expected-delivery-date-as-x-days-after-sales-order-date

If you want to fetch days from customer master, that kind of example is also there in the above link.

That rocks. The correct code using default fields is:

// below is for setting default expected delivery date
cur_frm.cscript.custom_sales_order_date = function(doc) {
    cur_frm.set_value("delivery_date", wn.datetime.add_days(doc.transaction_date, 3));
}

Will look into linking it by customer master later.
