To meet the requirements, you should use Calculated columns or Formula columns.
Formula Columns: This is the modern, recommended approach in Microsoft Power Apps. They use Power Fx to calculate values in real-time when a record is retrieved. They do not store data in the database and work perfectly in both forms and views.
Calculated Columns: This is the legacy feature that performs real-time calculations. Like formula columns, they do not store values in the database for time-dependent calculations (like using NOW() or UTCNOW()) and are supported across views and forms.
