Dear Model Builders,
Please refer my attachd Opening Capex code which I believe not referring to the previous month's closing capex correctly.
Appreciate your help on finding the cause of error and possible solutions.
Thanks
Hi @TD1,
Simplifying the formula will make it easier to understand and troubleshoot, while also reducing the calculation effort % of this line item and improving your model's performance. This line item probably has high calculation effort due to multiple nested IF statements. Here are a few suggestions:
2. Consider separating ITEM(FV01 Versions) in your versions system module if you have 10+ versions.
3. Try to move this part to a system module, too.
These will make the formula easier to fix.
I hope this helps.

Here is an example of how a simple If+Boolean formula optimization can reduce the calculation effort:
Formatted Sales 2 Formula - Calculation Effort = 27%
IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Number Unit Input = 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Thousands THEN Sales / 1000 ELSE IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Number Unit Input = 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Millions THEN Sales / 1000000 ELSE Sales
IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Number Unit Input = 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Thousands
THEN Sales / 1000
ELSE IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Number Unit Input = 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.Millions
THEN Sales / 1000000
ELSE Sales
Formatted Sales 1 Formula - Calculation Effort = 60%
IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.'Input = Thousand?' THEN Sales in Thousands ELSE IF 'SYS01 Sales Number Units'.'Input = Millions?' THEN Sales In Millions ELSE Sales
I'd like to note that calculation effort can fluctuate depending on factors like early exit logic, but the main idea here is keeping formulas short and clean improves performance and makes them easier to read.
Hope this helps! Seyma 🌷🙂
If you want to match numbers, try using PREVIOUS.
PREVIOUS('DEP10 Closing Capex')
Something like this:
IF 'SYS02 Time'.Is First Month THEN [Your IF-ELSE logic here] ELSE PREVIOUS('DEP10 Closing Capex')
Hi ALL, I have a module where a line item (Assignments column) is formatted by a large ‘Projects’ list. Each record is assigned to a Project and this module is published to a UX page. When users apply a filter on the Assignments column, the filter dropdown displays the entire Projects list (since the column is…
Hi ALL, In my model, I have Need stored at a 'D3' RS Group level. I need to use this Need in another module at the G5 Location level. I currently have a mapping module where each G5 Location maps to a D3 RS Group. This Module uses D2 Role as dimension. but the line item I've to find the RS Group (Find D3 RS Group = 'FIND…
I couldn't find any formula to do this, but I want a way to put on the page/grid the connection details. This is so I know what connection I'm in rather than going into Connections details to see it. Is there an XL3 formula to return this value?
