i2024.2.4 New Features and Improvements - Calculation Group References in Calculated Measures

Business Requirement 

Simple KPIs that require the use of in-line aggregation over time frames are tightly coupled to both the Time-Frame and the Time Hierarchy.  If I want to evaluate the same basic calculation over different time-frames or Time Hierarchies then I have to create many copies of my basic calculation with boilerplate modifications.   

  1. Hard to write and maintain
  2. More complexity in the model confuses end-users, requiring more training.

 

AtScale Feature Review 

  1. Put the boilerplate components in a Calculation Group!
  2. Use the new Calculation Group "Wildcard" expression Syntax:
    1. Don't reference Hierarchies by Name.
    2. Instead of Level Name references use Time Type references.
  3. Use tuple syntax in the simple calculation to automatically scope the Measure by the boiler plate Calculation Group expression.
