HFM Rules - Creating a trigger account for forecast that clears after

EmmaPaMar 20 2015 — edited Mar 20 2015


Hi All,

I have written a rule to create a forecast trigger which copies data to the next forecast when the trigger account for the period is populated with a 1. I have then told the trigger account to clear after consolidation.

The issue is that when the trigger account clearing is commented out, the rule copies across fine and when the it is included in the rule, it does not work.

I assume this is a timing issue somehow but can anyone offer me advice on how to include the clearing of the trigger account? Below is my rule:

Sub FcastFcastMap(xvPeriodList)

vIsBaseDataEntryLevel = IsBaseDataEntryLevel()
  vIsDataEntryLevel = IsDataEntryLevel()
  vEntity = HS.Entity.Member()
  vValue = HS.Value.Member()
  vTransCur = HS.Value.IsTransCur()
  VtriggerAccount = HS.GetCell ("A#T002.E#[None].C1#[None].C2#[None].C3#[None].C4#[None].P#CUR")
Dim vGlobalRate
Dim vGlobalRateList

  For Each vPeriod In xvPeriodList
   If HS.Period.Member() = vPeriod Then
  
    If vEntity = "[None]" And vValue = "[None]" Then
     If vtriggerAccount = 1 Then
      vGlobalRatesList = HS.Account.List("ExRate","[Base]")          
       For each vGlobalRate in vGlobalRatesList
        HS.Clear "A#" & vGlobalRate
        HS.Exp "A#" & vGlobalRate &" = A#" & vGlobalRate & ".S#"&PrevForecastScenario&".P#" & vPeriod
       Next 'end of global exchange rates list
     End if ' trigger account
    End If 'end of entity none - value = none condition

    'Run at data entry level to include intercompany impact
    If vValue = "<Entity Currency>" Then
  
     If vtriggerAccount = 1 Then
      'Map P Loss Accts
      vActualAcctList = HS.Account.List("PLoss","[Base]")
      For Each vActualAcct In vActualAcctList
       vFcastAcctMap = vActualAcct
         'Clear Forecast mapped accounts before running mapping calculation
         HS.Clear "A#" & vFcastAcctMap         
         HS.Exp "A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#LocalRep" &"= A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#GrpRptTot" & ".S#"&PrevForecastScenario&".V#<Entity Curr Total>.P#" & vPeriod
      Next 'end of actual accounts mapped loop
     End If

     If vtriggerAccount = 1 Then
      'Map Bal Sheet Accts
      vActualAcctList = HS.Account.List("BalSheet","[Base]")
       For Each vActualAcct In vActualAcctList
        vFcastAcctMap = vActualAcct
         'Clear Forecast mapped accounts before running mapping calculation
         HS.Clear "A#" & vFcastAcctMap         
         HS.Exp "A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#LocalRep" &"= A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#GrpRptTot" & ".S#"&PrevForecastScenario&".V#<Entity Curr Total>.P#" & vPeriod
       Next 'end of actual accounts mapped loop
     End If

     If vtriggerAccount = 1 Then
       'Map Metric Accts
       vActualAcctList = HS.Account.List("SuppData","[Base]")
                  For Each vActualAcct In vActualAcctList
         vFcastAcctMap = vActualAcct
            'Clear Forecast mapped accounts before running mapping calculation
            HS.Clear "A#" & vFcastAcctMap         
                    HS.Exp "A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#LocalRep" &"= A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#GrpRptTot" & ".S#"&PrevForecastScenario&".V#<Entity Curr Total>.P#" & vPeriod
       Next 'end of actual accounts mapped loop
     End if
    
     If vtriggerAccount = 1 Then
       'Map Metric Accts
       vActualAcctList = HS.Account.List("Metrics","[Base]")
                  For Each vActualAcct In vActualAcctList
         vFcastAcctMap = vActualAcct
            'Clear Forecast mapped accounts before running mapping calculation
            HS.Clear "A#" & vFcastAcctMap         
                    HS.Exp "A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#LocalRep" &"= A#" & vFcastAcctMap & ".C3#GrpRptTot" & ".S#"&PrevForecastScenario&".V#<Entity Curr Total>.P#" & vPeriod
       Next 'end of actual accounts mapped loop
     End if
    End if
   End If
  Next
HS.Clear "A#T002.C1#[None].C2#[None].C3#[None].C4#[None]"

Thank you,

Emma
