This session will demonstrate several Active Form examples that IRL have used to improve information accessibility and user productivity, and describe some TM1 issues overcome while building these.

Planning at different levels – Advanced TM1 Level - Martin Ryan (Fairfax)

TM1 doesn't support planning at different levels straight out of the box, but Martin will demonstrate several ways to handle this including spreading, ragged hierarchies and rules driven by attributes.
