The settings for the input template calculation function define the units for which figures are calculated. The most commonly used setting is the branch type generation in which all input units (for which the user has required rights) are generated for input template calculation under the selected level.

Elements, attributes, and possible values

Input Template Calculation function - path: <outlookparameter><inputcalculationdimensions><dimensionselector>

This element and its parent element <inputcalculationdimensions> (see above) are needed if the input template calculation function has been added to the template (<inputcalculation>).

Note! If <multiselect> is in use and a user selects multiple units for a dimension defined by the 'dimensiontype' attribute, the dimension and unit combinations are generated for each unit according to the 'generatetype' settings. If the selected dimension is not included in the 'dimensiontype' settings, the unit selections are passed on to the template and processed according to the template settings.

Attributes

dimensiontype: Defines a dimension to be generated.

Possible values:

•dim00 ... dim09

generatetype: Defines how units are generated for the dimension.

Possible values:

•next: Input units to which the user has required rights are generated for input calculation starting from the next level below the selected level. If entering data to consolidation units is allowed (AllowConsolidationInput=True), also consolidation units are generated (refer to Allowing Input to Consolidation Units in Clausion Financial Performance Management Administrator's Guide). Attribute level is required with value next.

•input: Only input level units for which the user has required rights are generated for input calculation regardless of the value of the AllowConsolidationInput parameter (refer to Allowing Input to Consolidation Units in Clausion Financial Performance Management Administrator's Guide).

•selected: Specific selected units for which the user has required rights are generated for input calculation.

•branch: All input units for which the user has required rights are generated for input calculation under the selected level. If entering data to consolidation units is allowed (AllowConsolidationInput=True), also consolidation units are generated (refer to Allowing Input to Consolidation Units in Clausion Financial Performance Management Administrator's Guide).

•all: All input units for which the user has required rights are generated for input calculation. If entering data to consolidation units is allowed (AllowConsolidationInput=True), also consolidation units are generated (refer to Allowing Input to Consolidation Units in Clausion Financial Performance Management Administrator's Guide).

level: Defines how many levels down from the selected or defined level units in the hierarchy are generated. Required with the 'generatetype' attribute value next.

Possible values:

•Hierarchy ID: The units are generated from the defined hierarchy.

•Variable %DIMnn HIERARCHY%: The units are generated according to the hierarchy selected by the user on the input task's Basic Options tab.

sourceyear: Defines the financial year according to which units are generated.

Possible values:

•Variable %YEAR CODE%: The units will be generated according to the financial year selected by the user on the input task's Basic Options tab.

sourcedatatype: Defines the data type according to which units are generated.

Possible values:

•Variable %DATA TYPE CODE%: The units will be generated according to the connections of the data type selected by the user on the input task's Basic Options tab.

forceconslevels: Defines whether consolidation units are always generated for input calculation in the next type generation regardless of the value of the AllowConsolidationInput parameter (refer to Allowing Input to Consolidation Units in Clausion Financial Perforrmance Management Administrator's Guide).

Possible values:

•true: Even if AllowConsolidationInput=false, consolidation level units are generated for input calculation (in the active data type and year) in the selected branch on the defined level n.

•false: When AllowConsolidationInput=false, consolidation level units are not generated for input calculation (in the active data type and year) in the selected branch on the defined level n. When AllowConsolidationInput=true, consolidation level units are generated for input calculation.

includeselected: Defines whether the unit selected in the Basic Options is also included in the input template calculation when the <multiselect> function is in use.

Possible values:

•true

•false (default)
