Hi,
Need help creating a formula that will look at LI for a rolling 5 day forecast and return back the max number of those 5 days. I set up a systems module that looks at the forecast for 5 days, and then tried to use it in the formula below.
Hi @neg177
To achieve this, you need to make a lineitem that only has values for the rolling 5 days. It's formula will be ' IF Rolling 5 days Forecast THEN Max cash demand ELSE 0'. The MAX of this lineitem will be your desired result, it can be achieved by setting the summary for this lineitem and MAX and referring the top level in the target lineitem.
Hope this helps.

Mandeep
Please try the following formula.
TIMESUM('Rolling 5 day forecast', -4, 0, MAX)
@ravi
Please do not use TIMESUM() with Time in the Applies as it can have performance issues:
@rob_marshall
Does this performance hit also apply to MOVINGSUM?
Can the following formula solve the problem without the performance hit?MOVINGSUM(Line item, -4, 0, MAX)
No, MovingSum() does not have the same performance issues that TimeSum() does because MovingSum() was specifically made for line items with Time in the Applies To and TimeSum() was not. Here is a video which talks directly to that:

Hi - I cannot seem to create a migration for Assignment 3 and it will not allow me to update the hierarchy and proceed further. It seems to think that a link has already been created, but I don't see anything. Any ideas?

A quick reminder of the Bulk Copy functionality. Bulk Copy allows you copy large volumes of data from one slice of a model to another in a single, optimised operation, instead of using formulas or imports. Use case: copy a version (RF1) into a prior year version (PY RF1) using a versions list to allow for year-on-year…
