Data Seeding

Hello,

I am trying to seed data from Actual to Forecast scenario. I am running the Business Rule through a DM step, whose data unit contains the forecast scenario, so that it picks this forecast scenario in the destination string.

My Actual (Detail level accounts) are on more granular level and extend my planning accounts (plan and forecast accounts). The planning accounts are on top level. 

Now, when i try to seed the data, it picks the Planning Accounts (since i have Forecast Account in my DM step), due to which my  Actual accounts are not picked up by the process. and the data copy is partial.

I am trying this by using DataBuffer. Please let me know if there are any suggestions or solution to this.

Thanks

You want to investigate ConvertDataBufferExtendedMembers (search for it in the helper tree). You pass the source buffer, and the coordinates it came from (in this case, the Actual scenario and cube), and OS will do all the necessary rollups for you! Isn't that cool?!?
