The standard calculation approaches enable you to do all the most common types of calculations automatically.
For example, adding, subtracting, and multiplying values from the same or other measures and performing calculations.
This includes using numerators and denominators to calculate common ratios used in finance and beyond.
The advanced calculation approaches enable the use of historical data from other measures, e.g., the average of the last 12 entries from another measure. Also, conversation (look-up) tables can take a number from within a range of values and convert it to a different number.
The Advanced Data Management add-on includes additional specialist calculation approaches. For example, calculations for air quality from vehicles and machinery and the quality of buildings are added at the request of customers to support complex measure requirements.
Also included are standard calculation variables, which simplify, for example, common conversion values like the number of hours in a standard working day. These calculation variables further simplify the use of measures.
