Roll forward datasets
When you are finished working on a calculation for a period, you can roll dataset forward to the next period.
note
To maximize the data rolled forward, you should roll forward the same template used previously. Some information may not roll forward if you select a different template.
- On the Calculations window, select the dataset and selectRoll Fwdon the toolbar.
- On the Dataset Properties window, enter the details for the dataset name, and then selectNext. The period start and end dates, period length and purpose will be pre-populated based on the original dataset, but can be overwritten.
- On the Entities window, select the entities to include in the dataset. You can clear entities that are no longer required.Entities from the previous period dataset are automatically selected.
- SelectNext. If you add entities that were not in the dataset prior to roll forward, there will be no prior period data to roll forward.
- On the Templates window, assign templates to new entities added. You cannot change the assigned template for an existing entity within the dataset.
