@noelle_murphy Hi, can I set up a 1:1 with you? Some of my formulas in lesson 6 aren’t working & it’s hard to move on from that. I also sent you an email. Thank you
@Efuacudjoe
Yes the formula is correct. Just set the summary to 'Any'. You will get your output correct

You can post the question here as well if you want.
@anand.shekhawat Thank you.
For activity 6.6.2 this is what im getting but its different from the screenshot.
Also,
Im not getting the FY20 & FY21 boxes to be checked off.
its hard moving on in the course without getting these done.
Please check the formula of Forecast Period? line item in the SYS00 Time settings Module. The formula should be written in such a way that the boolean is checked for all the forecast months Also make sure you have set the Current Period correctly in the time settings. You can find the Time settings on the top left in Model Settings panel.
I hope it helps
@anand.shekhawat
These are all done properly, please see attached images.
Is there anything else I need to try?
Both the screenshots look good. Yes, you need to check one more bit.
Kindly navigate to SYS00 Time settings Module and check if you have written a correct formula for 'Forecast Period?' line item.
This should be the right formula right?
@anand.shekhawat Thank you so much. It finally worked. But Can you pls explain the logic behind that? Why did summary need to be set to 'Any'?
Yes so the logic here is,
By using the formula - 'SYS00 Time Settings'.Forecast Period? you are pulling the Yearly data of 'Forecast Period?' line item. Why Yearly ? It's because the SYS01 Module is Time dimensioned and the Time Scale is set to Year. That is why if the summary was set to None in the earlier case, your booleans for the summary items(FY) were all blank. After setting it to 'Any' the booleans of FY in your SYS00 Module got checked in case any of the months of that particular year is 'True'.
I hope it helps.
@anand.shekhawat Thank you so much
Hi, for some reason my shipping costs are the same over every month and I don't know what to do to fix it.
Hello folks, Does anyone know how to work around the Polaris limitation of using the Formula or Ratio summary method alongside the Closing Balance within the same line item? I have a Business Unit list where the total (All BUs) must display the Corporate (1 of 20 leaf items under All BUs total) number of Unique Customers.…
Has anyone found success using Anaplan XL with Polaris models in a shared drive with or without concurrent users? My team has experienced a variety of errors, login failures, etc. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. We've been recommended to save and edit files locally, which helps but certainly with its limitations…
