I am trying to model the age of sheep over years. The closing balance of a 1 year old sheep becomes the opening balance of 2 year old sheep the following year. The closing balance of 2 year old sheep becomes the opening balance of 3 year old sheep the following year. And so on.  

I am modelling the flock of sheep over a period of time.The logic: 2023 sheep * lambing percentage = 2023 Lambs bornAfter one year the lambs born are added to flock of sheep. 2023 sheep + 2023 lambsThis is then multiplied by you lambing percentage to get you current year lambs births. (2023 sheep + 2023 lambs)*lambing percentage = 2024 LambsAnd this repeats for the following years.

Hi!I am trying to populate a column in a transaction list by using a IF-formula. I want it to say that IF the Fulfillment center name = Start Depot name, then it should be classified as a Fulfillment Center (FC), and if it is not true, it should be classified as a Dip, but I get an error saying “Expressions are incompatible and cannot all be converted to Dimension ('[00] Hub'::'Fulfillment center')”Please see below the formula I am trying and screenshot of my expected result:IF('Act last Mile'.FULFILLMENT_CENTER='Act last Mile'.START_DEPOT_NAME,"Fulfillment Center","DIP")  

Is there a way to filter both “blank” and “non-blank” FALSE boolean cells in one filter?I am trying to filter on check boxes that have not been checked, but however I filter (= FALSE, <> TRUE, etc), it still excludes “blank” boolean boxes, aka boolean boxes that have not been checked yet. Is there a way for a single filter to include both “blank” and “non-blank” FALSE check boxes?

Hi Community,I’ve created a Commissions Forecast metric to calculate the difference between YTD Commissions and Total Target Commissions. The value is then spread over the remaining months left in the current year. I’d like to maintain the values from this metric and have it to flow through to my Total Compensation metric which has more dimensions defined in the metric structure. Any tips on how to accomplish this? Commissions Forecast Metric Dimensions: Department, MonthTotal Compensation Metric Dimensions: Department, Month, ID, Employment Type, Employment Status, Location, State.

I’m trying to map one dimension in my transaction list to another using the lastnotblank function: ‘Pigment Dealer Model’ is the transaction list and ‘Dealer Type’ and ‘Dealership Id’ are both list properties; sometimes when I use the lastnonblank function it will work and other times, I get the error below: Is there a reason this function would be working sometimes, and not other times? When it works it produces this:  Any help would be much appreciated and please feel free to ask for more detail if needed. 

Hello Pigment community, Quick one here. I want to modify the Month Dimension in my calendar but “Cannot update a protected property (eg. built-in properties of calendar dimensions)”I’m currently showing Jun 23 (MMM YY) and would like to switch to Jun-23 (MMM-YY).How can I tune my own Calendar?Thanks in advance !!Guillermo

Bonjour,J’aimerai avoir la donnée des mois suivants. J’ai une donnée par mois et j’aimerais calculer une donnée dépendante des 3 mois suivants.  Merci par avance.  Par exemple : 1 257 k€ est la somme des mois de décembre à Février.  

Hi!I’m trying to create a new column with YTD figures in a table where we see EBITDA by market.The logic we’re trying to find is to be able to tell Pigment that this column has to be the sum of the actual months and to group it all in a single column.  That is to say, it would be something similar to a filtering option, just as we can filter by month to see the info for a specific month, so that we can choose to see only the YTD figures.The idea is that it would be something dynamic and as we close new months that become current months Pigment would understand that the YTD info has to be updated.

Guys, I have a business use case that happened to have a data in weeks, and I would like you to help on how to solve this problem. What are your suggestions..?

Hi there, More and more people in my company are using Pigment. We have different access rights settings (By Cost Center/ By Business Model/ By Country etc...).Today, I'd like to create a board that allows each Pigment user to see which dimensions they have access to and which they don't.I can of course create a new application by making all accesses available to all users , but I want the user in question to be able to see only his or her accesses.I thought of creating Rights accesses by user ("User A" will have an access Read/No Write only to "User A") but you can not, as far as I know, have 2 similar dimensions in a Metric.Any suggestion?Many thanks
