Getting Text1 Value for Account Dimension Varying by Scenario BRApi

Good Evening,

It should be something simple but apparently I am missing something. I am trying to get the Value for the Text1 field for an Account Dimension member using a Business Rule. The Text1 value vary by scenario. I trying to use ".Options()" but can get it to work. Is this the best alternative? Would you know of other alternatives? Is there a BRApi function which already does this?

Thank you for the help,

Did you try BRApi.Finance.Account.Text ?

for example: 

'Get the member ID for the Cash account, 5 is the Account dimension dim type	
Dim memberID As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si, 5, "Cash")		

'Get the Text1 value for the default scenario type and time. The two "-1" are the defaults scenario dim type and time. 	
Dim acctText1 As String = BRApi.Finance.Account.Text(si, memberId, 1, -1, -1)

Hello, Try this please

 

Dim lstBaseAccounts As List(Of MemberInfo) = api.Members.GetMembersUsingFilter(api.Pov.AccountDim.DimPk, "A#[Root].DescendantsInclusive")
If lstBaseAccounts.Count > 0 Then

For Each curBaseAccount As MemberInfo In lstBaseAccounts

Dim sCurBaseAccount As String = curBaseAccount.Member.Name.ToString

Dim sText1 As String = api.Account.Text(curBaseAccount.Member.MemberId, 1)


End If

Next

Thanks,
