Working with UDAs

You can use user-defined attributes (UDAs)—words or phrases describing a particular characteristic of members—within calc scripts and reports so they return lists of members associated with the specified UDA. Workforce Planning includes one predefined UDA called ACTUAL. This UDA flags the Actual scenario and ignores member formulas. This prevents actual data from being overwritten.

Note:

Member formulas do not calculate data in any scenario that has the ACTUAL UDA assigned. Before or after initializing Workforce Planning, assign the ACTUAL UDA to the scenario that is used to store actuals data.
