Hi everyone, I have two questions regarding input configuration in Pigments. 1. Conditional input depending on the versionWhen I enable data input in the metric settings (by checking “Allow overriding formula result with an input”), the input becomes available for all cells.However, I would like to enable input only for specific periods depending on the selected version.For example, for the Forecast Q2 version, the cells should be editable only from Q2, while Q1 should remain read-only because it contains actuals.Is there a way to restrict input to specific periods depending on the version? 2. Input

The first time I pulled data from Pigment into Excel, everything worked correctly and the data loaded. However, when I tried to pull the same dataset again using the same filters, I received an error saying: “The view is too big to be displayed.”How can I resolve this issue? 

Hi - do model snapshots factor in Access Rights? In other words, if a user takes a snapshot but does not have full access, will the snapshot only include the data they have access to or will it still snapshot the entire model?

I accidentally deleted a snapshot, is there a way to restore it ?Thanks

Hello Pigment Community,I just want one option to be marked, if suppose Absolute is checked, then the other options (Percentage and fixed) cannot be checked. How can I do this?  Please kindly guide me to perform this operation. Thanks a lot!

I have a Calendar folder in [01] Data Hub app. As I create additional related apps should I create a new Calendar in each? I know I can open the Data Hub dimension to be shared  Can I dimension-chain my way back to the Data Hub time dimension’s properties? I use the Data hub Time period lists in the structure (dimension format) of Metrics in the related apps, can I reach data hub propts in formulas? 

I currently have a table with months and years in the columns and metrics in the rows. I want to have a YoY% appear as a column after each year for all metrics. i.e.    FY26 | YoY% | FY27 | YoY% |Is this possible and if so, how to I go about it?

Hello,I Have the below list of leads and I want to count 1 in the column Count only for the lastest lead of the company.The goal is to remove duplicate leads of my lead analysis.Thanks  

Hello,I have a question. Hope you guys can help me out. I have a metric dimensioned on week, business unit and version. This is calculated from a TL that is being continually and automatically updated from the source system. However, I would like to ‘freeze’ this data for specific versions. For instance, at this moment in time I would like to freeze the metric for the budget 2026. Later on (in a couple of months) I want to freeze the data for the first forecast of 2026 (but leaving the data for budget 2026 untouched of course). I was thinking along the lines of using a M2M import, but I can't seem to work out a scalable solution on how to import only item A and not item B of the same dimension. Maybe using data access rights? Thanks for your help.Best, Bas 

Hi Pigment - would you please share the difference between Previousbase and Previousof. They look the same from the documentation perspective. Thanks,Louie

 I am trying to recreate a table like this in Pigment where the scenario would be Actuals and Var $ and Var % are calculated items and $ per head is ‘Total $’ in ‘Show Values as % of’ format. In Pigment, the red cells end up calculating as a % of as well instead of a variance. Does anyone know of a work around for this? If I make an independent $ per head metric the total $ per head line will be inaccurate. Thank you! 

Hi!Could you please elaborate on what “preferred” means here? If dimensions are not in the preferred selection, will they be left out? Thanks,Louie  

Can we integrate Pigment with Python 

Hi,Is there a way to create a master button to import data in mutiple metrics at the same time instead on having to click 20 times (20 metrics) on each import data button ? Thanks for your help

Hello,I have a transaction list per customer_id with information regarding sales_team. However some clients are not properly mapped and do not have any data inside the “sales_team” column.When i retrieve the data from this transaction list via [BY : sales_team] i lose all clients that are missing the info.How could i include in my formula a way to have all customers not mapped under “blank” sales team ? I could add a formula directly into my transaction list but as i do have 6M lines i’m afraid it’ll trigger performance issue. Thanks in advance

I am trying to export pigment data to PowerBI following the guided steps available on community, but I get an error “404 id not found”. Does anyone know what I could be missing in the setup? I used payload functionality to generate ID for metrics. 

Hi!Can someone please help me to find the vendor names from the description of a transaction from a list of vendor list that I already have?Right now, with the help of ITEM function its able to only recognize if the description has only the full vendor name from the list. But I want to populate vendor names by finding the vendor names in the description among other extra texts as well.For example,if my Description is “Amazon.com” ITEM function is able to recognize the vendor name and populate Amazon.com from the list that I have as a dimension. if the description is “Orders from Amazon.com”, its not able to find “Amazon.com” among the other texts in the description.So I’m looking for a way to find these vendor names from the description which has other text apart from the vendor name and populate it.Thank you!

Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well ! I have a question regarding displaying properties in Pigment. In my model, every dimension has both a Name and a Display Name property. When I place a dimension on a row or a column, I can choose to show either the code (name) or the Display Name by using the “Update header labels” feature, which works perfectly.  However, this feature does not exist when a dimension is used as a Page Filter. As soon as the dimension is placed in Pages, the option to display Display Name disappears.As far as I can see, the only current workaround would be to modify the dimension so the Display Name becomes the Name which

I want a table that has costs actual ytd, costs budgeted ytd, costs ytd variance, costs full year budget, and costs YTG (i.e. total year budget less actuals YTD).However, my budget is captured as a scenario snapshot. Is this possible?

Is Pigment capable of handling two billion records?

Dears, I have been getting this error recently when I perform divisions on Pigment. I understand division by 0 or blank can give NA, that is why I use an IF in the formula to make sure we do not computate those values. Thank you very much in advance!Jose

Hi,Can someone please tell me about the best practice for Data Cloning in metrics from one version to another such that even data which is the result of a formula gets cloned when new version is added? This is my find with regards to data cloning:1) In formula driven metrics with manual override on, only manual inputs get cloned. Data resulting from formula does not get cloned.
