Data Management Global Time
Hi all, I thought this was easy but not sure what I am missing. I have a current data management job that is running off this parameter and works just fine.
Scenario=[Actual], Time=[|GlobalTime|]....
I have the same issue. It seems that there must be some type of limitations on what can be set in the DM job, but I can't find any details. I've tried different combinations but so far have been unsuccessful finding a way to have it automatically run for prior period.
What was wrong with Teresa's suggestion of using T#MonthPrior1(|GlobalTime|)?
And, of course, if you can't find or are unaware of a built-in function or variable that gives what you want, you can always get whatever you would like from an XFBR() rule.
Nothing wrong with the suggestion at all. I'm still learning and it just seems that there are certain areas where this works and where it doesn't. I would love to be able to understand why that is or if there is something I am just looking at incorrectly. If there are special circumstances around using this, it would be helpful if I could find those.
Nothing wrong at all but the DM step will not accept that syntax. I ended up using an XFBR variable and it worked just fine.
