Dimensions

Dimension(dimTag) returns the name of a predefined dimension.

The dimtags are:

  • DIM_NAME_PERIOD
  • DIM_NAME_YEAR
  • DIM_NAME_ACCOUNT
  • DIM_NAME_ENTITY
  • DIM_NAME_SCENARIO
  • DIM_NAME_VERSION
  • DIM_NAME_CURRENCY

Calculation Manager Syntax:

[[Dimension("DIM_NAME_ENTITY")]]

Example:

CALC DIM([[Dimension("DIM_NAME_ENTITY")]]);

In this application, Entity is named Entity, so the above script returns:

CALC DIM ("Entity");

If the entity dimension was named Cost Center, it would return:

CALC DIM ("Cost Center");
