    Hi @alexlee 

     

    The Switchover works in such a way that until the assigned month(for the version) the actual flows and future months forecast period flows.

     

    if your forecast period starts from jan 23 the switchover period should be Dec 22 not feb23.

    Hi @alexlee 

    If the goal is to store all user inputs, The quick way is to drive the Lineitem A with the Swichover using a Lineitem B without switchover.

    While Lineitem A is used for calculation, Lineitem B should be used for input.

    This will allow you to store user inputs for any analysis.

    The new lineitem can also have its Write access DCA limited to prevent changing of past data.
