January 2021: Product Compare Overhaul, Automation API + More!

Our product development team is hard at work in this new year to bring you all some great new features. While many large initiatives are still in the works, see below for this months latest features, updates, and fixes!

NEW

Product Compare & Merge

The product compare and merge features have been merged into a single view and updated to the new compare & merge interface to match the new model compare.

Automation API Released

For customers with licensed access to it, the initial version of our application programming interface (API) has been released, with initial endpoints for automating the management of files and self-serve API credentials generation within the SLOPE interface. Please contact your account rep for details, if interested.

IMPROVEMENTS

  • Converted error to informational message when a portfolio variable references a product variable that cannot be found on any products.
  • Stabilization improvements have been made around queueing of projections, especially with a large number of scenarios.

FIXES

  • The compare view now properly compares the Gender and Age formulas on an Annuity Factor.
  • Single clicking a node in the relationship view no longer performs the action of a double-click.
  • Product Variable validation errors are now properly displayed on projection validation.
  • ‘Back to Details’ link on relationship view no longer causes visual issues with the documentation field or the formula builder.
  • IRR formulas that fail with a result that is positive or negative infinity now show up properly on the debug view, if a default value fallback value was used.
  • Fixed an issue with goal seeks inside array formulas sometimes resulting in errors.
  • Fixed array value dropdown on the debugger being inaccurate for some variables that were array variables and force recalc variables.
  • Invalid dates are no longer resulting in an unknown error when importing a data table.
  • Fixed link to sales allocations from projection validation details.
  • Arrays that were once referenced by deleted products can now be removed.
  • Fixed an issue where long running sequential scenarios sometimes failed to start, requiring a restart of the scenario in order to finish the run.
