Problem in building a dynamic Version to Version Variance Calculation

edited May 2024 in Modeling

Hi All,

I have a request by a customer to have version to version variance analysis done where, when a version is selected from a drop down for comparison the version name selected appears on the column header. And not version 1 or version 2

NB: Am not using a native version. The version used for the drop down is a custom version with many versions.
e.g - 1+11 FY24, 2+10FY24, 3+9FY24, 4+8 FY24

Please guys is there a work around to achieving this build?

Any suggestion will be really helpful.

Thanks.

    Yes, Map to forecast variance list to version list to get data at version list. Please find updated step.

    Are u using custom versions or Native Version?

  • Hi @Ashutosh I am using a custom version not a native version.

    Assuming you are using Custom Version . Please find the below steps:

    1. Create a another list which have version names and also add one another item Variance . Use that list for selection.

    2. Create a mapping module between the version variance list and custom version.

    3. Create a another module using the forecast variance list and other versions excluding custom version list and create below line items as shared in screenshot :

    4. Create a Final Filter module by using version variance list and line item 'Filter':

    Formula for filter line item :

    And apply that filter in step 3 module and show line item name 'Final Data'.

    Hope that will solve your issue.

    Thanks

  • Thank you very much @Ashutosh for taking your time to create this awesome workaround. I'm not so clear with the step 2 part.

    2. Create a mapping module between the version variance list and custom version.

    Could you please explain clearly on this one. What I gathered is that with this I will have 3 different custom version. My original custom version list, b, the mapping version and c, the Forecast version.

    Is that what you mean?.

    Thanks once again for your time.

  • Thank you @Ashutosh for the work around.
