Transformation rule, Mapping IC based on account property

Hello,

The data I am loading have a lot of wrong account/IC combinations and my load fails because of those.

I want to create an expression rule to say:

if the 'Is IC Account' property for target account in OneStream is not set to True; then map to IC#None

Else

Do normal mappings.

Any help appreciated

    Also,

    Make sure the Account Dimension is being processed before the IC dimension.  You do this on the Integration tab of the Cube properties:

    I hear you! The problem is then the order of the Transformation. I presume you are using this in a mask rule? Then it means you can not use One To Ones then... remember the order: SourceDerivative, OneToOne, Composite, Range, List, Mask... but if you push this BR to the Mask as it is the last the ones before can not be used. 
    Use the Order in the mask and push your code to be used as the first one....

    Hi GorkemSenol 

    It sounds like you do not have quality data in your source for your IC. I would suggest that you solve this in your source.
    An alternative could be to do the "opposite" and map all your accout and then use a mask rule to map all the rest to IC#None using * to None. That would be the easiest option.

      Thanks Nicolas,
       
      Yes but it's not an option to fix the issues in the source at the moment. I've written an expression to check if the target accounts ICP property is set to True or false. But since this mapping is being picked up by all the lines, the rest of the mappings are completely ignored. I'm sharing my expression below:
       
      'Grab the target account value   
      Dim vaccount As String = args.GetTarget("A#")
      Dim vAcc_ID As Integer = BRApi.finance.members.Getmemberid(si,dimtype.Account.ID,vaccount)
      'Grab the is IC property
      Dim vAccountIC As String = BRApi.Finance.Account.IsIC(si, vAcc_ID).ToString
      Dim vIC As String = args.GetSource("IC#")
      'brapi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, vaccountic)
      If (vAccountIC = "FalseValue") Then
      Return "None"
      ' Return args.GetSource("IC#")
       
      Else
      This should allow the mapping for these accounts should be done normally
       
      End If
