Has anyone received an error trying to set up an SFTP connection with ADP? It seems to be finding the file OK (we get a different error message if we put a non existent file) but is generating this error in Pigment: “Error while uploading the file. Cannot get the size of '/fromADP/xxxxxxxx.csv'" I’m not sure if it’s a permissions issue or something else. 

Hi everyone,I would like to display both Code and Name of a Dimension, in a Table.Below is the objective which I created from screenshots:In the first row, “CESSION” is the Name of the Code “AU1”, in the “Business Area” Dimension.Thanks !

Is there a way in Pigment to submit a button?(i.e. similar to marking a checkbox as True)

I want to be able to make specific notes about forecasted line items to document the rationale for the forecast.  This would be particularly useful for when a default forecast calculation is overridden to be able to have documentation.  Comments don’t seem to be a viable solution for this, as the comment can only be made on a cell within a grid, and if that cell is no longer visible in the view, (i.e. the switchover date changes and the forecast is hidden and replaced with actuals), it’s not there for anyone updating the forecast to see. I also dislike that comments are permanent and cannot be removed. Has anyone come up with a solution for this that they would be willing to share?

Hi,I have a set of metrics for wich I want to copy the input from one version to another.Version is a dimension ex: Budget 2025, Reforecast 2025….I have in mind something like using the function “ copy input between scenario” but at a version level.Thanks

Hello, Can anyone tell where I am going wrong here? 

HelloCould you please tell me how can sort the below formula so I don’t have the time out formula error ?Formula : roundup(IFBLANK(((('Wallet Lifetime Value'*0.7)[ADD : 'L9 - P&L']-'Input Wallet Upfront'[REMOVE : 'L9 - P&L'])[FILTER : 'L9 - P&L'='L9 - P&L'."Wallet fees"]/ 'Wallet Lifetime'[ADD : 'L9 - P&L'][BY:'SalesForce opportunities'.'Activity level 2'][FILTER : 'L9 - P&L'='L9 - P&L'."Wallet fees"])[FILTER : CURRENTVALUE >= 0],0),2)Thanks

Our current approach uses a formula that pulls department data from a NetSuite Actuals saved search. It looks up the department code and returns the department name if it is in the actuals report. However, for new departments that don’t yet have transactions, the lookup fails—defaulting to “No Department”—even though the department code and name already technically exist in NetSuite.While we can hardcode logic (e.g., map department 239 to a specific name), this isn’t scalable. From what I understand, we can’t create a transaction list that syncs directly to the full NetSuite department list, since that’s not a saved search.One workaround we’ve considered is exporting the department list manually from NetSuite into a Google Sheet and syncing that, but we’re hoping there’s a cleaner solution.How do others or Pigment typically handle this situation when planning for future departments without actuals? IF(ISDEFINED('NetSuite PL Actuals'.Dep

I am investigating using Fivetran to export Pigment data into Snowflake and I didn’t see anything in the Pigment or Fivetran documentation about access to snapshots. Is it possible to export Pigment data from a snapshot into Snowflake?

Hello Everyone,  I have a dimension which is called Supervisory Org which is the Workday hierarchy. In that dimension, I have properties called Level2, Level3, Level 4 etc. which is basically the hierarchy chain.  I am seeing help to develop a logic as to if I select select someones name, I should get everyone rolling up to that person and not only the direct repartees. Not sure if anyone has faced this before. Any help will be appreciated. 

I currently uploaded 2 transaction list containing payroll details. 1 of the report has both Employee ID and Name and the other report only has Name.I’m able to match the names below but i want it to return the employee ID as well, what formula should I use? The example below: I want the 3rd column to return 4068 for Aaron Brethorst.   Thanks in advance!

I have a transaction list with a roster from each month taken on the last day of the month. Sometimes HR would make retroactive changes after the load is done. For example, HR may input a term date on July 1 for someone who terminated June 30. The term date now shows up in the July roster but is missing from June roster. I want to somehow flag that the June roster is MISSING this term date. In the image, Vincent’s term date was captured in July because the term info was processed AFTER the June date was imported. Vincent should have a June term date in the June snapshot, but it is missing instead. In Excel, I could do this:=XLOOKUP(“Snaphot Month”, “Test1 (Term Month)”, “Name”, “Name”, “Term1 (Term Month))This essentially looks up the the employee’s Term month using the snapshot month that is = to the term month (in “Test1”). The result here for Vincent would be blank since there is NO Term month Vincent’s June data. The end goal would to fi

 Hi Pigment Community 👋,I’m working with a table that contains monthly revenue data across several years.

Is there a way to automatically deactivate Pigment users that have left the company?  

Hi everybody,I am looking for a way to implement a form of circular referencing across multiple blocks. Essentially, I am trying to create a feedback loop like below: This is a snip of an OPEX forecasting model. I want to give the end users the possibility to use the output of a certain forecasting version as the input for a new forecast. That means that users can say: prefill my new forecast with the figures from any of the previous forecasts. I don't think that PREVIOUSBASE() or PREVIOUS() can work, because if I'm not mistaken that only takes the previous value from the iteration dimension. But I want the users to be flexible to choose whatever forecast they want as the base for their new forecast.How can I best go about this? Bas 

Is there an option to apply the conditional formatting on KPIs?

Hello community,I'm looking for a cumulate grouped by Qty. I have a first metric which indicates my need of Qtés per week, and I need a second metric able to detect the week when I exceed the minimum to order. In my example, I have a minimum order of 6. In Line 1 I calculate my requirement per week. (that's done)In Line 2 I want to trigger an order when I've reached at least my minimum order.If I have that, it's already good In an ideal world, I'd have to reduce this quantity to the 1st week, a bit like a moving sum function but with variable parameters. If anyone has an algo idea, I'd be grateful ^^.

Hello,I need help setting up an API request for UKG. Is there a solution or guide available? 

Hello! Could you help me with setting up the formula with the given metric/txn list below? Metric: 1.0 [Post Acq.] Amortization Schedule (Forfeit+Current)I created amortization metric for each grants by month. I confirmed this amort. distribution is correct. Transaction List: RSU Accounting DataBelow is the transaction list, providing the grant details for above metric (type, employee termed date, grant vesting month, employee original terminated month).

How can I filter a dimension dropdown in my table? I created a dependent dropdown but there is still the ability to select “all options”. I still need the user to have read access of all list members in because they are also viewing their previous budget but I want to limit the dropdown because some choices are now inactive. 

Hi everyone, I am working a logic where I need to Input P&L interest value line based on calculation which will refer to P&L Interest line again.  Below is example of same with Excel formula, how do I avoid error on P&L Interest line.   Thanks.

I am trying to recreate the below waterfall-type allocation and running into an issue having to use previous() functions across multiple dimensions. I created an example below to recreate what I am trying to accomplish. In the example, I have a certain amount of dollars to spend each month that I need to allocate across various items. I can’t spend more than the amounts on the column header and each item has a certain cost associated with it.  I am able to accomplish it with the formula using excel below but when I try to do it in Pigment, I having to use previous on both the month dimension and the item dimension in order to ensure I don’t go over the capped quantity/cost. Anyone have any suggestions?   

My team has been experiencing issues with the Excel connector lately, receiving this error sometimes when trying to pull data into Excel:“An error occurred (Data pull). Please try again later or contact us”.  Does anybody know why this error occurs? Is there a row or data limit when pulling into Excel that we should be aware of?
