PRORATA FOR OVERLAP PERIOD


Hello, We import our sick leave period data into a transaction list in Pigment:
Each employee could have several records of different periods. But it's possible
to have overlap periods for one person, for exemple: Emp_2 has an overlap period
from 03/04/2023 - 03/08/2023. So for this case, I have two needs: 1. Create a
metric to affiche those employees who have overlap period 2. Even it's error and
we warn it, we still want to calculate these sick leave period from the earliest
start date to the lastest end date. PS: I’m not sure if it’s helpful to create
unique ID for all records in the transaction list. We can do it if need. Thanks
you in advance for any advice!!

SPARSE ENGINE CONCEPT


Hi Pigmenteers! While I’m taking Pigment trainings and explore my personal
application, I figure out that there is no information about the size of my
application or total number of cells, etc.. and the reason behind is that
Pigment is a sparse engine. Therefore, can you help explain to me more about the
concept of sparse engine - what is a sparse engine, how does it actually work
and what is the benefit compared to non-sparse engine?

SHOW QUARTER AND YEAR END HEADCOUNT WITHOUT SUMMING PERIODS


I am trying to show just the quarter end and year end headcount. However, rather
than taking the last month in the quarter or the year, the quarter end numbers
sums every month. How do I set up headcount so the quarter does not show a sum
of the periods but rather the last period? For now, I’ve created a report with
just the last months of the quarter but I plan to add headcount to the bottom of
a PnL which has accounts summed in the quarter.

DEPENDENT DROPDOWN IN A FORM


Hello,I need to create a form for end users to assign a cross-dimension
(direction and activity) to 2 new dimensions (Analytical Dim level 1 and
Analytical Dim level 2). To do this, I was thinking of: Creating a table with
the direction/activity cross and the associated data. Creating 2 metrics with
the direction and activity dimensions A. to select: Analytical Dim level 1 B. to
select: Analytical Dim level 2 However, I would like the selection of
"Analytical Dim level 1" to only display the child items of Analytical Dim level
2. Is it possible to do this and if so, how? Thank you in advance for your help.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE PREVIOUS() SIMULTANEOUSLY ACROSS MULTIPLE DIMENSIONS?


I am building an attrition model based on month dimension and a dimension called
‘30 Day Cohort’. I am almost certain that I will run into a circular reference
if I do not use the Previous function. However, because I am working with 2
dimensions I am unclear on how to reference the previous month and previous ‘30
Day Cohort’ dimension simultaneously. Is this possible? Can I combine multiple
Previous functions? Is it possible to nest two Previous functions? To start my
model, I have “initialized” the metric with both the starting values in the
first month and the forecasted new subscribers in the first ‘30 Day Cohort’ (0
in my case): What I would like to do is calculate a formula on the value in the
previous month and previous cohort and then do so recursively (this is why I
think I need to use the Previous function). So for Oct 23 and cohort 1, I would
want to do my calculation based on the Sep 23 and cohort 0 value (1,895); for
Oct 23 and cohort 2, I would want to do my calculation b

CONDITIONAL RECIPIENTS AND SCENARIOS


I have configured an Automation that triggers in my scenario “Forecast”. The
automation contains a conditional recipient, but the issue is that the recipient
is defined by my metrics value in scenario “Baseline” instead of the value in

around it?

LOOKER WEBHOOK IMPORT ISSUE


I am attempting to import data from Looker via webhook but am receiving a CSV
Format & Mapping error each time. I have the saved import configuration ID
correct in the webhook address, but when importing, it seems like Pigment does
not recognize the column headers. I was careful to import the same exact CSV
when setting up the configuration, it should have the same headers. Would anyone
be able to advise on this?

UPDATE A FORMULA


I have a formula on my data load table, which automatically attributes a ‘clean’
code to an uploaded busline code. For eg. If a country NG uses XXXNOTALLOC , the
clean code attributed to it is XXXNOTALOCNG The formula is the following :
if(('Actuals P&L Data Load'.'Busline Code - Warehouse' = Busline."LOCCENTRALTN"
or 'Actuals P&L Data Load'.'Busline Code - Warehouse' = Busline."LOCCENTRAL")and
'Actuals P&L Data Load'.id_company='Legal

- Warehouse'.Code,Busline),'Actuals P&L Data Load'.'Busline Code - Warehouse'),
'Actuals P&L Data Load'.'Busline Code - Warehouse')) I dont want this to happen,
I want to code to stay at XXNOTALLOC. I am not sure if this will have

FILTERING DIMENSION SELECTIONS


Is there existing functionality to facilitate the filtering of a dimension input
metric, say on a Department dimension, whereby subsequent selections would then
be filtered based on only valid intersections that apply? I currently have two
input metrics, one by dimension Department and the other by dimension Position.
Is there a way that when the selection is made for Department, say “Accounting”,
only the relevant Job Positions are now available within that dimension
drop-down, so that something like Job Position “Legal Analyst” isn’t a viable
option?
