However, I can underline the steps I took to create the named expressions. The workflow is shown as Domain tab &gt; Setup &gt; New named expression &gt; x_acceleration + y_acceleration &gt; manually inputting the z_acceleration.&lt;br&gt;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<strong>&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 14pt;&#8221;&gt;Step 1:&lt;\/span&gt;<\/strong>&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/21-05-2024-1716258853-mceclip0.png\" \/>&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 14pt;&#8221;&gt;<strong>Step 2:<\/strong>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/21-05-2024-1716258895-mceclip1.png\" \/>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 14pt;&#8221;&gt;<strong>Step 3:<\/strong>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/21-05-2024-1716258921-mceclip2.png\" \/>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 14pt;&#8221;&gt;<strong>Step 4:&nbsp;<\/strong>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/21-05-2024-1716258963-mceclip3.png\" \/>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 14pt;&#8221;&gt;<strong>Step 5:<\/strong>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/21-05-2024-1716258980-mceclip4.png\" \/>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 10pt;&#8221;&gt;I hope that clarifies what I had explained in my previous answer.
