Hello !I would like to duplicate a board for our German team (I have currently created a sales reporting for our French and Belgian team). However, if I duplicate this board and apply “Germany” in my Country dimension page, it also applies this country to my other board (for France and Belgium)… Do you know how I can unlink the 2 boards so that when I select a country, it doesn’t change the country in the other board?Thanks!!Elodie

Hello community,I contact you regarding an issue of indirect costs allocation to several list items.I have (fictive number) 10K€ of indirect costs categorized as “No checkout ID” which i want to allocate to each item of my item lists based on an allocation key.To do so i’ve created 2 metrics based on 2 unique dimensions :1. “Id_checkout” (Item list to which the direct costs and indirect costs are to be allocated)2.  “Month” (because the allocation is based on a monthly basis)First metric - Checkout level test - Consolidation of indirect costs→ Filter on Indirect costs (“No checkout Id”)→ Dimensions : Date (Month), Id_Checkout  Second metric - Allocation Key Fees Test - Indirect cost allocation Key→ Logic is to divide the direct costs allocated to each item list by the total cost of the month1. Checkout level test - Direct cost per item - 2 dimensions (ID_checkout, Month)2. Checkout level Fees for allocation key - Total cost per month - 1 dimension (Month)→ It will give to each item lis

Hello,I have a metric (dimensions Month and Employee) where I have the Country of an Employee by Month (for example : from Jan 22 To Jun 22 → France, From Jul 22 to Dec 22 → UK).I have a Transaction with financial accounts with columns of Month and Employee ID.I need to get the Country of the Employee in the Transaction, according to the Month. How can I do that ? Thanks,Alexandre

Hello Pigment Community, I am trying to calculate the quarterly bonus of my employees and shift it by one month to simulate the payout on the first month after the quarter end.I will detail below the steps of my calculation and where I am stuck:My bonus expenses are by month. I was able to sum the quarterly amount with a [BY SUM: Month.Quarter] modifier. I want to add again the “Month” dimension and put this quarterly amount on the last month of the quarter only (or first month of the quarter, it doesn’t matter). This is where I am stuck. If I use a [BY CONSTANT: Month.Quarter] - the amount is written on all months of the quarter, and then I am unable to filter only on the first or last month of the quarter. The last step will be to SHIFT this amount by 1 month to simulate the payout on the first month after the quarter ends.  I would appreciate your help if you already worked on this topic! Thanks in advance,Steven

Hello Pigment Community, We are importing our General Ledger in a Transaction Table. In this Transaction Table, we have 2 key information that we are trying to rework:Document Number CC ID (= it’s the department ID) Our issue is that we have multiple lines for the same document number with multiple CC ID. Our objective is to get a unique list of document numbers with a unique CC ID attached to it. We know in advance that a specific list of CC IDs are not relevant and that we want to exclude them. If you look at the screenshot below, we have multiple lines for the Document Number “JOUFR12797”. We want to attach to this document number which CC ID it is flowing to. Our standard CC ID is a set of 3 digits, followed by the name of the department. Here, it is “340 - Customer Experience”. The others CC IDs that you see on the screenshot (“4 - P&L Allocation..” and “5 - P&L allocation”) are not relevant and we don’t want them in our unique list. What we want is basically a unique list

Hi Team,I just want to know is their any way by which pigment can automatically generate some number/code to a line item so that unicity remains in the list and once the code is allotted to a line item it can’t be changed even after the line item is deleted.   Thank you in advance 

Hi Community!Love our trace dependent feature for tracking interlinked metrics/data sources but I’m wondering if there is any way I can see from a dimension which metrics/applications it is being used in. Wanting to do some cleanup of our dimensions and prior to deleting I want to find a way to ensure I won’t break anything after deleting.Thanks!

Hello community! I’v created several boards with sames tables but for different stakeholders (Top management, Finance and People).

Hello Pigment Community, I need your help on calculating merit increase for existing employees. To give you more context, our merit increase calculation is made of:1. The annual package of an employee → this is the basis for our calculation. 2. The merit increase % : it will be applied to the annual package and is cumulative through the years. 3. The merit increase eligibility: we calculate it based on the start date of the employee. 4. The timing / effective date of the merit increase: it is the month the merit increase will be effective.We are currently stuck on the last part, which is the timing of the merit increase.I will explain quickly each component below and will explain more in details why we are stuck on the effective date and what we try to achieve.  1 : The annual package of an employee.Let’s say we have an employee making 40,000 EUR a year. We have a metric in which we have 40,000 EUR on every month for this employee.  2 : The merit increase %.It is defined by year and it

Hi Pigment community, My case description:I have 3 Transaction List [TL], which have accounting transactions, I added to those list identical dimension.Then I have created a “Staging Metric” that’s adding up for 3 [TL] the column “USD Net value” (number property), on the following dimensions [by: Company, ‘Company and Account’, Month]Note: ‘Company and Account’ dimension is the lowest level and from where stem the Reporting dimensions (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3).The metric aggregates well, and adds up the transaction values at each reporting level and at each time level (month, year, quarter).Then I want to create a metric that does the cumulative for “USD Net value”, so I can get the values for the “Balance Sheet” cumulating on a monthly basis. I use the following syntax:Cumulate('Staging Metric'[Filter:'Company and Account’.Report = Report."Balance Sheet"],Month) Cumulate('Staging Metric',Month)The formula works well when showing Month Dimension in the columns The problem: When showi
