How to reference a charisma modifier from a save misc field?

I am a newbie in Roll20. I'm playing Pathfinder as a Paladin, and because I have a few archetypes I'm not using Charactermancer and filling the list manually.

As a paladin, my Charisma modifier is added to all my saves. I'm trying to make it work by referencing it in the fortitude_misc field, but it does not seem to work.
I tried to write: @{charisma_mod} and @{Belarim|charisma_mod} (my character's name is Belarim), but it does not work, I don't receive the bonus from my charisma.

Of course, I can just type "2" in this field, because my modifier is 2, and then update it manually each time my charisma changes. But I want to learn how to use references.

Can somebody help me with such referencing? =-)

There are 3 (that I can think of at the moment) Pathfinder 1E character sheets, and a sheet for Pathfinder 2E.  You need to be specific about which character sheet you are using.

If this is the Pathfinder by Roll20 (1E) sheet, then the easiest might be to create a custom buff that you leave on all the time.  That way, the bonus will automatically calculate when your charisma modifier changes.  Something like this should work:

Divine Grace

+[[@{charisma_mod}]] to saves
