Re: Ultimate Long TM1 quiz

Nothing. You have to hit enter first. :-)

After you hit enter, 10 will replace each of the cells in that cell and to the right. In this case Total Year will now equals 120.

Send an email to entire company that they have to resubmit their budget due to a catastrophic failure. That and pray to Manny that I don’t lose my job.

Source is feeding, but not to the target cell shown in the function, which is seemingly a live functional statement.

Re: Ultimate Long TM1 quiz

Also feed from Job Type - it’s a string cell so any change to it will cause FEEDER to trigger and re-trigger:

Code: Select all

['Job Type'] => DB('Employee analysis', !organization, !EmployeeList, !Year, !Version, 
	DB('Employee', !organization, !EmployeeList, !Year, !Version, 'Job Type'), 
	!Employee);

Re: Use of VBA in PA

THAT aside, keep your expectations with VBA/PAfE interactions low. VBA is practically undead at this point and is fairly limited in how it can interpret responses from REST/PAfE. PAfE itself is notoriously undocumented and a few of the core functions (like TM1ELLIST) don't behave as described. Resp...

Re: IF Statement Evaluation in Rules

Short-circuiting is the concept here, and not every language implements that. VBA also does not for those using PAXAPI.

Agree - either don't separate, or there should be an Invite T/F column in the CSV.

PA on IBM Cloud - Uploading users

Just wanted to memorialize something I ran into today for benefit of others in the future. For PA on IBM Cloud (PAOC, IBM SAAS), there's two ways to add users in PAW: Manually creating them one-by-one using the Invite button -or- Uploading users from a CSV. When you use Invite button it's one stop s...

Re: Check current user selection in UI

The only way would be to add an element to your column dimension (perhaps named “Selected”), then if a user inputs a value or picks a value in a picklist, you can programmatically identify which elements have been selected.

For me this happened during a dirty Excel crash. Symptoms are: No references to IBM PAFE in the Excel Add-ins window. IBM...

Re: Quickly promote or copy a PAW book

Nice little use case: When creating an action button in PAW and you link it to a process, when setting parameter picklist, you cannot specify control dimension, e.g. }Clients. So pick some other dimension, then do Ctrl + Q + / and you can find/replace all references of the dummy dimension with the i...
