Adding a Units-Rates Formula to a Graphical Business Rule

A Units-Rates formula calculates based on values of a designated unit, rate, and amount values. There are three types of units-rates formulas from which you can choose. The types are:

Amount = Units x Rates—The default calculation is Destination = Unit x Rate.
Rates = Amounts / Units—The default calculation is Destination = Amount / Unit.
Units = Amount / Rates—The default calculation is Destination = Amount / Rate.

To add a Units-Rates formula to a business rule:

If it is not open, open the graphical business rule to which you want to add a Units-Rates formula.
If the BR Language tab is not selected, select it in the bottom of the left frame of the Analytic Administration Services window.
Expand the Formulas folder, then expand the Units-Rates folder. Select the type of Units-Rates formula to add:
- Amount = Units x Rates
- Rates = Amounts / Units
- Units = Amount / Rates
Double-click the formula or drag it to the desired location in the business rule on the Graphical tab.
The Formula tab is displayed.
On the Formula tab, enter details for each operand of the formula. Do the following tasks:
1. Define the destination for the formula. The destination stores the calculated values from the formula. See Specifying a Destination in a Formula.
2. Define the source for the formula. See Specifying a Source in a Formula.
3. Define the ratio by specifying the numerator and denominator. See Specifying a Source in a Formula.
Select the Formula Range tab and specify the members that remain constant throughout the formula.
The formula range more narrowly defines the business rule range. See Specifying a Range in a Formula.
Select the Data Condition tab and enter criteria that must be met for the formula to be calculated.
