ROLLFORWARD_MUL

Basic Overview

Description

Rolls the values of OriginalNode forward with the influence of Node1 and other optional Nodes.

The rollforward starts after the last value along the finest time level and is done for each shared dimension individually. If Node is not of type percent, the percentage-wise differences are calculated relative to the first value of the Node.

Both nodes need to have the time dimension available. The dimensions of OriginalNode are retained and determine the dimensionality of the result. Node1 is rolled up according to its aggregation function to match the dimensions of OriginalNode.

The difference between this function and ROLLFORWARD is how they treat multiple influence nodes.

ROLLFORWARD sums up the effects and then applies them to the OriginalNode. ROLLFORWARD_MUL multiplies up the effects and then applies them to the OriginalNode

Signature

ROLLFORWARD_MUL('OriginalNode' [, 'Node1', …])

Parameters

  • OriginalNode: Input node, specified using the node name in single quotes (e.g. 'Revenue')

  • Node1: Input node, specified using the node name in single quotes (e.g. 'Revenue')
