This release is all about Array Variables! We’ve been working hard to release this feature, which allows even more flexibility and ease of configuration, particularly for variable-type products.

NEW

• Arrays & Array Variables can now be configured and used! Array variables allow users to specify a different formula for different values of an array, and then reference the array variable from other variables. This effectively creates a chain of calculations that iterates on the array values, without having to configure each one throughout the chain. Array value results can also be aggregated or singled out for more complex/flexible calculations.
  
  See our help site documentation here for more detailed information.

IMPROVEMENTS

• We’ve added a bit more context to the error message when an IRR formula fails to calculate properly, so users can more easily troubleshoot any issues.

FIXES

• Fixed an issue when calculating deeply nested IRR formulas that project well beyond the end of the projection with a very specific and uncommon configuration that sometimes generated errors.

This release focuses on some smaller improvements and bug fixes while we work on some larger initiatives behind the scenes. Stay tuned for more soon!

IMPROVEMENTS

• Existing references to old scenario table versions can now be selected when updating projection settings. This allows the updating of settings without changing the scenario table to a new version.
• The ‘Share’ link on dashboards is now also available on dashboards without filters.
• We’ve updated the error message on a failed economic variable rate scenario file read in the calculation engine logs to include the name of the variable rate for easier diagnosis.

FIXES

• Fixed formula builder state issues with deeply nested time indexed variable references within goal seek seed formulas.
• Fixed an issue causing cell selection in the data table editor to require a refresh to work properly after removing rows from the table.
• Saving a variable while the variable list is filtered no longer clears out the filter.
• Fixed an issue where info icon tooltips were sometimes not displaying on formulas.

OPERATIONS

• We’ve upgraded some backend servers with the latest patches to keep performance and security up to date.
