Experts,
I have a use case and would like to get your feedback.
We currently use Versions / Scenarios to track different forecast numbers by different departments.
2 questions
1) Is it possible to perform calculations using versions?
Example : V1 and V2 are versions... KF1 (Stored and calculated) is in both versions. V2.KF1 (calc) = (V1.KF1(Stored) - V2.KF1 (Stored)) * V1.KF1 (Stored).
2) is it possible to use different exchange rate based on different versions?
Thanks,
Krishna
general rule for versions:
when you want some input KF always have the same value, than make it as BASELINE
when you want some input KF play with different versions, than make it version-dependent
but than you have to initially fill the different versions with an initial value by manage version -> copy from baseline (or any other) to your target version --- if you forget this step, it will not work and you likely get an error such as "no data found" when you try to enter a value manually in your version and try so simulate/save

Thanks Irmi and Ghita...
Follow-up question - Do you know if it is possible to assign different authorizations to a KF in different versions?
Example : Say Forecast is KF & Sales and MKTG are versions. Sales.Forecast should be editable by sales teams and MKTG. Forecast should be editable by Marketing users respectively...
Thanks,

Hi Krishna,
Yes, you can have version specific values for the exchange rate. Only if you reference the exchange rate to the base version it will contain the same values.
To have calculations across versions, I would use the local members.
