I have added a sum field to a few keys on a table.

There were exisiting fields there my question is when does SQL go in and calculate the SIFT for the newly added field?

    Its the same when you modify normal index. When you save a table with modified SIFT definition corresponding SIFT view is dropped and recreated, along with clustered index on it.

    Same happens when you import a fob with table defnition having different SIFT index structure than existing table.

    In NAV 2015 / 2016 update occurs when you synchronise changes with tenant databases.

    Later on SQL internally keeps clustered index on SIFT view updated. This is happenning as a part of any insert/modify/update operation which touches any record included in the view.
