If you follow the disjoint two-stage approach that is nowadays usually recommended there are no problems with manual calculation.
If you choose to follow some repeated-indicator approach, you have to do it manually.

Hello Community
I have a question regarding HTMT criterion. Do I have to have use it as part of my analysis or I can rely only on Furnel Lercker criterion instead?
Note: I am employing the two stage analysis .

Fornell Larker criterion is outdated and most reviewers will request HTMT criterion to assess discriminant validity.
