    Hi Omkareshwar

    the syntax should work, I used it several time. Did you specify all the needed dataunit dimensions, not only entity and time? Custom calculations are bound by the same restrictions as standard calcs (dataunits). If you don‘t specify them, OS uses the pov and workflow settings. To test, if the calc is executed and for what pov, I would use API.logmessage and API.pov.

    I‘m not in front of a pc and can‘t give you a sample, but I hope this helps and cheers

    As Christian mentions, you need to supply all the DataUnit dimensions in the call. It could look like:

    {BRRule}{CustomCalc}{Entity=Entity1,Cube=Cube1,Consolidate=Local,Scenario=Scenario1,TimeFilter=T#2022M12}
