Please help me..

Post by ram3sh »

When I am summing the element values at leaf level(N), if any of the elements are null it is not summing up. Can anyone help me on this.


['After Adj'] =N:['B4 Hedg'] + ['Prior Adj'];
in some cases ['Prior Adj] is having no values, at that juncture that the result is yeilding null/0. Actually it should yeild the value of ['B4 Hedge'] in the cell ['After Adj']

Any reason you're not using a hierarchy for this instead of rules?

Just like Steve I'm wondering whether there's anything stopping you from using a consolidated element instead of the sum in the rule.

Are you using SKIPCHECK/FEEDERS? If so, what is the feeder for the rule? Could it be you're feeding from ['Prior Adjustment'] only?
Is the ['Prior Adjustment'] element in itself a rule calculated element? If so, what is the calculation (and feeder) for this element?

ThanQ Michel, it worked when I have included elements in @ Feeders.

As pointed out by both Steve and Michel you'd be better to do this using a consolidation in the dimension instead of a rule. It's faster, clearer and will apply automatically to any cube that uses the dimension.

It may work, but rules are considerably less efficient than consolidations. You should always opt for the latter if you have a choice.
