Following are considerations for writing rules for applications:
Rules are executed when users perform calculations, translations, consolidations, and allocations. Calculation rules execute one time for each Entity/Value dimension intersection to which the calculation or consolidation applies. See Calculation Rules with Calculation Commands.
The dimension members to which Financial Management applies calculations depend on the data grid cell where the user’s cursor is placed and the members specified in the Point of View bar. See Current Dimension Members.
When a function puts data into a currency-related Value member, Financial Management might delete the current value in the Value member. See Functions Automatically Clear Data.
Rules execute in sequential order within a routine and there is a set order in which routines run before other routines. See Rule Execution During Consolidation.
