Hi,I have a metric that pulls data from previous version and has metric override on. In current version, is there a way to delete data that came over from previous version without that cell reverting back to formula based result even if I don’t input any value. 

Hi everyone,I’m running into a problem with filtering months dynamically based on version in Pigment, and I’m not sure how to handle it. Here’s the situation:Context: I have a table with Version in rows and Month in columns. I created two metrics (both identical, boolean, dimensioned by Month and Version): A filter metric that marks which months are related for each version. Example: New Biz 2025 → Sep-24 to Dec-25 = TRUE New Biz 2026 → Sep-25 to Dec-26 = TRUE A data-entry metric to “open/close” months for each version. This ensures that, when a version is selected, only the relevant months are shown, not all months.

Hello community,I was wondering if there was a way to display more information when you hover over one cell. For instance when i display top 10 clients upsell of one month i display only the name but would like to be able to see other dimensions (region, sales owner, ...) when you’re hovering the name of the client.

I want to set up a variable item that i can use as a default filter on my Boards.I want it to default to the local currency of a selected subsidiary.I have tried creating a mapping metric, dimensioned by Subsidiary and with the data type = currency dimension. I have also tried it as a boolean with subsidiary and currency as dimensions.Neither are available for selection when trying to set up the variable.How can i get this to work?

Hi Everyone,I am looking for a way to visually group and indent independent Metrics on a Pigment Board to create a hierarchy, similar to a traditional P&L view.The Setup: I have four separate Metrics, each calculated using its own formula: Other Operational expenses (The parent/total) Warehouse expenses Transportation cost Other expenses The Goal: I have added these four metrics to a Pivot table. I want to arrange them so they appear grouped together, with the sub-categories indented under the total, like this: The Question: Is there a way to achieve this visual "parent-child" grouping directly on a Board or Pivot table w

Hi,Can a notification be triggered even when the Automation has been turned off? I have been receiving emails even though I have the notifications turned off. There are no changes in the model history to point to what triggered it. 

Hello,I was wondering if it is possible to create a CAGR % in a table (via calculated items or SVA). At the moment I have a separate metric that calculates a CAGR on a granular P&L level, but once I pull that metric in my table it simply sums or flat-out averages that metric for the higher P&L levels.Does anybody know if there is some smart way to recreate a CAGR SVA or calculated item in a Pigment table?Thanks, Bas

 Hi Everyone,I have a metric based on TRx data (quarter-wise: Q1–Q4) across multiple Accounts, with dimensions including Region and Version (e.g., Forecast FY24).I want to identify the top-performing account within each Region and Version based on the highest TRx value (either quarterly or total for the year).I tried using the RANK function, but I’m only able to rank by grouping on a single dimension. I’m not able to rank dynamically by multiple dimensions together (Region + Version). It seems like the grouping works only for one dimension at a time.What would be the best way to write a formula or configure this in Pigment to dynamically return the top account by both Region and Version?Any guidance on the correct approach

Hello Pigment Community,We have replicated our monthly reporting pack in Pigment, which was previously in Google Sheets. One key function (and final touch) that would make it identical to our files in Google Sheets would be the ability to add comments in the right hand margin for each income statement line of our variance analysis.I’ve reviewed Pigment’s commenting functionality, which works well, but is not suitable for our use in this instance. We’re really set on having the comments visible, and being able to archive them. Here’s our specific requirements:Be able to archive comments by period, version (actuals vs. forecast, actuals vs. budget, etc.), and by income statement line.  For example: Imagine I am reviewing the May 2023 Actuals vs. Budget Income Statement variances. I comment to the right of the Revenue line “Revenue underperformed due to X, Y, Z. If in a year’s time, I filter on the month of May, for the May 2023

Hello, I noticed that there were some adjustments made to view aggregators functionality in widget. Previously it was possible to remove the total from the dimensions in grid an copy it over to every metric, but now this button is unavailable. Are you planning to restore it? Thank you! 

Hello Team, Do we have an option to export Block History in Pigment ? if not, do we have alternatives to do an analysis for the block changes / overrides made by the end-user against the time period. Thanks !  

Hello,I have 3 metrics :- Capa Test (Dimensions: Macro Ressources, Mois)- Charge Test (Dimensions: Macro Ressources, Macro Item, Mois)- Saturation Test (Dimensions: Macro Ressources, Macro Item, Mois) : Saturation Test = Capa Test / Charge Test But as you can see, when I use a multi-selection, the KPI “Saturation Test” doesn’t display the expected result (which would be 132/185 = ~71%).Do you know how I can aggregate this formula in order to have the expected result ?Thank you very much

BonjourExemple :j’ai 2 dimensions, une rayon et une critère, je voudrai pouvoir ne faire apparaitre que les critères relatifs au rayon afin de limiter la selection.J’ai crée une metric de type bolean CP1 , cela fonctionne quand les critères sont exploitées en ligne  mais pas en page merci pour votre aide

I have a transaction data containing 3 columns:QuarterAccountSales OrderI need to insert rank columns wherein the condition is:For an account whenever gets any Sales Order in a quarter, it should be assigned a rank for the line items for the quarter in ascending order of the quarterExample1:Quarter Account Sales Order Rank 2024-Q3         Alpha 100 1 2024-Q3         Alpha 200 1 2025-Q2         Alpha 300 2 2025-Q3         Alpha 50 3 2025-Q4         Alpha 70 4 2026-Q2         Alpha 80 5 Example 2:Quarter

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?

Hi everyone,I’m a Pigment newbie, and I need support from you !I would like to manually sort the Items of a Dimension displayed in a Pigment Object.Let me show you an example :In the picture below, I want the “NA1” to be between “AU7” and “IN1”.I selected “No Sorting”, but I didn’t manage to drag & drop the NA1.Thank you !​

I have 2 lists, lets call them ‘list1’ and ‘list2’. ‘list2’ has two properties with all values populated: ‘name’ and ‘product’. ‘name’ is a text property with duplicative values and ‘product’ is a dimension ‘product L0’. ‘list1’ has the same properties, with only ‘name’ populated. What formula can I in the ‘product’ property from ‘list1’ to call ‘product’ from ‘list2’ by looking up ‘list1.name’ against ‘list2.name’?

Hi,I am trying to build a forecast in Pigment which can have multiple versions. Is there a way, we can lock formulas in versions? I know there is a scenarios feature, in which we can have formulas for different scenarios. Are scenarios the preferred way of versioning in Pigment?  Thank you

Hi Community,I’m currently exploring the Pigment × ChatGPT integration using the new MCP server. However, it appears our IT team is not comfortable enabling Developer Mode in ChatGPT.Does anyone know when the connector is expected to become verified so we can integrate Pigment with ChatGPT without needing to rely on Developer Mode?ThanksNeo

Hi, I just wanted to get some advice on best practice around FX handling when using snapshots.We load our underlying revenue data in local currency and use an FX rate table to convert this to USD. However, it appears that when a snapshot is taken, the USD conversion is locked using the FX rates that are active at that point in time.As a result, when updated FX rates are loaded later, for example FY26 rates, any forecasts that were already snapshotted cannot be recalculated using the new FX table. The snapshot remains fixed to the FX rates present at the time it was taken and cannot be toggled to any FX rates added after the snapshot was created.Any guidance on how others typically handle this scenario would be really helpful. 

Hi,Does anyone know if there is a way to rollback an application to previous version before a certain change was made?

Hi all, I have a strange behavior in some reports: if I collapse a dimension it adds an aggregation.For example I have a report which shows the following list of dimension and only the Months is aggregated inthe columns.In my example the Planning Cycle dimension is not aggregated (which wouldn’t make sense).But if I click on [- FY] to collapse the last columns it automatically activates the Planning Cycle dimension aggregation.The filter is activated automatically:

I’m having an issue restoring an application. I’ve gone through the restoration process but when I open the app I no longer have access to certain key lists:Does it take a while for these to populate or is there another issue with our restoration?

What is the best way to compare two formulas to find differences between them?When updating logic in other systems I typically create a copy of the existing metric. Metric A contains the original logic and Metric B contains the new logic. In order to spot the differences between them, I would create a boolean formatted Metric C with the formula: Metric A < > Metric B. This would return all instances where the logic behaves differently.However this has been a challenge in Pigment due to the way the system handles sparse cells. Am I missing something here? or is there a best-practice for handling these situations?
