HiI’ve seen the new images widget option you launched recently. That’s great, thank you! But: how can I add images from my desktop or from my Google Drive?If I want to add e.g. our logo from our official source, I need to take the official one we have in Drive, but that URL or pasting it into my desktop, is not working. It just works with a web page in my browser (but I can’t use that one as is not with the quality I want or not coming from our official sources) Thank you!!

I am attempting to import data from Looker via webhook but am receiving a CSV Format & Mapping error each time. I have the saved import configuration ID correct in the webhook address, but when importing, it seems like Pigment does not recognize the column headers. I was careful to import the same exact CSV when setting up the configuration, it should have the same headers. Would anyone be able to advise on this?

Hello there! Is there any functionality to edit display names of Scenarios in Pigment? (Or any work arounds)Here is the situation: I’m working on a BvA (comparing Actuals vs. Plan). In order to show my Actuals data I am using the “Current Forecast” scenario (because the Current Forecast scenario always has the latest and greatest actuals). However, when I put the BvA together the title of the scenario is “Current Forecast” and I don’t see any way to change it to “Actuals”Questions:1) Is there functionality to edit display names of Scenarios in Pigment?2) Is it general best practice to have a “Actuals” scenario (fully dedicated to only showing Actuals data)

We have the Snowflake connector already set up to bring data into Pigment, however we’re now looking to export data from Pigment back into Snowflake for reporting. I’m wondering if this is possible to automate (I didn’t see any Pigment->Snowflake functionality mentioned here) - ideally I can set up a table with a few metrics that is exported to Snowflake monthly. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,I have created a metric to retrieve the current version i am working on, and it is based on my dimension Version. But when I try to retrive it in other blocks (like in a transaction list) I have this error : Dimension error: the Dimensions of the formula and the current Metric structure are not compatible. Can't implicitly remove Version Dimension(s) on non numerical Metric. how can I solve this issue?Thanks in advanceNada

Hello,I have a transaction list with month, employee, role and value like this : Month Employee Role Value oct-23 1000 RA 12 nov-23 1000 RA 23 dec-23 1000 RA 12 oct-23 1001 RB 34 nov-23 1001 RB 32 dec-23 1001 RB 21 oct-23 1002 RA 45 nov-23 1002 RA 67 dec-23 1002 RB 54 oct-23 1003 RB 32 Each column (whitout value) is connected to a dimension. I would like to have the max of a value by role but I would like to can change the month.Ex : If I select no month in the table(or all), I would like to see : RA 67 RB 54   And if I select nov-23 : RA 67 RB 32  Same things if I select oct-23 and nov-23 : R

Is there existing functionality to facilitate the filtering of a dimension input metric, say on a Department dimension, whereby subsequent selections would then be filtered based on only valid intersections that apply?  I currently have two input metrics, one by dimension Department and the other by dimension Position.  Is there a way that when the selection is made for Department, say “Accounting”, only the relevant Job Positions are now available within that dimension drop-down, so that something like Job Position “Legal Analyst” isn’t a viable option?

Hi Pigment Community, We have a dimension list that generates unique IDs for potential hires before they go through our formal requisition process. Curious to know:1.  Is there a way to customize unique IDs so they follow a specific nomenclature (i.e. TBH - 001)? Would concatenating them be the best approach? 2.  Is it possible to generate unique IDs based on a dimension? For example, if we created a “to-be-hired” role under Department A, it would generate unique ID #1. If we created a “to-be-hired” role under Department B, it would generate unique ID #2 since unique ID #1 is already in use elsewhere. Currently, both roles are tied to unique ID #1. Ideally, we would want to associate properties to these unique IDs as well.

Dears, I am trying to filter by the current month in each of the metrics, I would use TODAY() function in excel, but since there is no function like that on Pigment. As a workaround I created a metric that I called Current Date (Month Dimension) , which I will update monthly, so that I can filter by that metric and automatically update all the other metrics. IF('MRR Be Churn Analysis'=1,TRUE)[FILTER:'Data Hub'::Month='Current Date'] However, I did not work, do you have any suggestion or guidance? Thank you very much in advance! Jose

Hi!If I have this info in several rows, as a list of transactions:One column with the amount in a local currency One column with the amount in EUR One column which tells me the month of the transactionHow can I calculate the FX rates per month, as a weighted average (not the simple average, but the average taking into account the weight of each transaction in the total amount of that month)?Sorry maybe is so obvious how to do it, but I don’t know, I know how to do it exporting the transaction list and calculating it in the file but...not sure how to calculate it directly in Pigment, which is what I would like to do better. Thank you!

Hi Team,We have been trying to figure out how to visualize and separate actuals and forecast data when sharing rolling forecast scenarios with budget owners and other users, mainly because non-FP&A users are not familiar with the switchover date workflow. We bring this up because the period type is a cross scenario setting, and we set different switchover dates for different scenarios so it won’t help.What’s the best practice? Roy and the rest from Melio :)
