Description
UPDATECALC specifies whether Intelligent Calculation is turned on or off by default.
If required during a calculation, you can override this default setting and turn Intelligent Calculation on and off using the SET UPDATECALC command in a calculation script.
Using Intelligent Calculation, Essbase calculates only updated data blocks and their dependent parents. Therefore, the calculation is very efficient.
