    Hey, module 2 is based off of LIne item Subset (LIS) and not line items. So you will have to use COLLECT function first so that use LOOKUP. My recommendation is to  Introduce TIME dimension in Module 2 . Steps to follow:

     

    Module 2 dimensioned by LIS, Parent of Dimension 1, TIME and one line item. (Do not use FY22 name in line item, just say Totals). Use COLLECT() as formula

    Create SYS Global module with no dimension. Create a line item call it as Time and format it as Time-Year. Manually pick FY22 in this line

    Create Module 3 dimensioned by LIS, Parent of Dimension 1 and one line item. Use formula as Module 2.Totals[LOOKUP:SYS Global module. Time].

    We do not use SELECT over time. That is hardcoding and messes up with scalability of the model.

    Hope that helps,

    Could you share the formula that you have used in the second module? I think you have missed to tackle TIME dimension in your formula.

     

    Also, confirm the dimensionality/artifacts of you modules

    Module 1: Dimension 1, Time in Years and Line items

    Module 2: Parent of Dimension 1, Line item Subset (based on Module 1) and One Line item

    Hi @Misbah,

    Thank for your quick response,
    As you mentioned about time, i have used time(Year) in module 1 and have not used in module 2 (instead i have referred it).

    Here is the structure for both modules.
    Module 1: Dimension 1, Time in Years and Line items
    Module 2: Parent of Dimension 1, Line item (based on Module 1) and One Line item (this will have same values from module 1)

    Formulas used in the module 2 LI: 'ESG DAT01 - TTC Data Module'.Corporate income[SELECT: TIME.'FY22']

    Let me know if you need any more info.

    Thanks,
    Gaurav
