Triggering calculations for parent-dependent cons members using member filters in DM
Hi, I'm curious to find out how I can trigger a calculation for any consolidation member that requires a parent reference, such as OwnerPostAdj, through a data management step using member filters.

2 years agoNot tested, but P#<TopParent>.Base.Parents should give you all the parents. However, this will likely result in executing the sequence multiple times for the same parent, and for invalid combinations of entity/parent.
The workaround would be to write a Custom Calculate instead, targeting the bits you need.
For the record, unless you have a custom consolidation algorithm, targeting OwnerPostAdj rather than simply consolidating parents will not really make sense, because you're doing 99% of the same work but then not saving any result in the database.
