Error in Business Rule for Data Mgmt Process
Data Mgmt sequence and steps work great when utilizing a 'manual' initiation of this process and business rule. However, the DM process automatically initiates twice daily at specific times using the same code and rules. When this occurs, it fails on occasion (not always), and this error message is received: Summary: Error processing Data Management Step 'ProcessRecons_RCM'. Unable to execute Business Rule 'RCM_DataMgmtProcess'. One or more errors occurred. () Concurrency violation: the UpdateCommand affected 0 of the expected 1 records. This is the business rule in use... asking if anyone can spot an obvious issue I have overlooked or might know the cause of the failed task on occasion.

Where does Stored Calculations store Data?
Today, a customer asked me:Where do stored calculations store data? api.Data.Calculate If Statements In stored calculations, If Statements are helpful to specify that a formula is only required to execute on specific Data Units, as shown in the image below. If ((Not api.Entity.HasChildren()) And (api.Cons.IsLocalCurrencyForEntity()))contains two logical operators (AndandNot). Due to theANDoperator, the statement api.Data.Calculate("S#Forecast = S#Actual") betweenThenandEnd Ifwill only run if both of the following are true: The Entity is a Base-level Entity Member, i.e.: doesNOThave Children (Not api.Entity.HasChildren()) The Consolidation Member is Local indicating the Entity Member's local currency (api.Cons.IsLocalCurrencyForEntity()) The statementapi.Data.Calculate("S#Forecast = S#Actual")will copy the S#Actual data buffer to the S#Forecast data buffer. TheIf...End Ifis limiting the calculation statement to execute only for specific Data Unit Dimension Members. Other consideration to take into account when creating store calculation rules.💥 api.Data.Calculate("A#CashCalc=RemoveZeros(A#10000)")uses the RemoveZeros function to remove cells with No Data or 0.00 cells in the A#10000 data buffer. The results are stored in the A#CashCalc data buffer. The RemoveZeros function is to help with performance if there are large amounts of No Data or 0.00 cells. END IF😂😀😃Turn off Translation - Budget Scenario for Specific Entities or Account
Looking into a way to turn off translation for specific entities, yet only for the budget scenario and select gain/loss accounts. Having translation on for Other Expense and Net Income as it relates to budgeting is skewing the EBIT bottom line. Is turning translation on a budget scenario and specific Entities possible? Thanks in advance,
cashflow statement : Condition in the mapping of accounts
Hello OS community, I am currently developing my Cash Flow Statement and I want to add a condition for a loan account. If it has a positive balance in the Working Capital Requirement variation flow, I want to map it under one CFS table. However, if it has a negative balance, I want to map it under a different CFS table. How can I implement this condition in my Cash Flow Statement?
