Entering Values for an Array Variable

An array variable can be a Planning execution variable. Arrays contain a list of values that can be multidimensional.

Typically, arrays are used to store variables as part of a member formula. The size of the array variable is determined by the number of members in the corresponding dimension. For example, if the Scenario dimension has four members, the following command creates an array called Discount with four entries. You can use more than one array at a time.

ARRAY Discount[Scenario];

To enter values for an array variable:

  1. Select the Array check box to make this execution variable an Array. After you select Array, you must select a dimension from the dropdown list, or it defaults to a dimension in the plan type.
  2. In the Value field, enter a value creating the variable at the plan level.
  3. Optional: Enter a group for the variable.
  4. Click Save button.
