@Davidm96

Your syntax is correct, so the error you are getting is probably related to the way you spelled the line item in REV04. Check the spelling of Unit Price %. You may have spelled it Unit Price% without the space.

TBH, the best way to create the formula is to use the editor bar and navigate to the line item and use the mouse instead of typing it in. This way if there are any special characters or the spelling is a little different, Anaplan will get it right. If the spelling is the same, then try looking at SYS04 and SYS06 spelling.

Give it another try. Your almost there.

No problem. We'll find the issue. Next, let's make sure your system module line items are formatted correctly. Can you validate that Country and Product Family in your system modules are formatted as Lists? Also, attach a screenshot of your system module blueprint for each of those system modules. Lastly, make sure you are using the mouse to enter the line items rather than typing them in.

@Davidm96,

As@JaredDolichmentioned your formula looks correct but what I have noticed in the screenshot is you have Subsidairy View in the line item, so make sure your REV04 & REV05 should be by year.

Goto blueprint -> Time Scale -> Change to year

Bingo!@Akhtar.shahbazcalled it. You need to resolve the subsidiary views. to do this make sure your line items match your module in the "applies to" AND the "calendar". Like so,

Looks like it's working. Take the context selector down to a product and location. For example, New York and Nutzo Bar. There is where you should see the correct percentage. The reason why you see a large number there at US and Chocolates is because you are adding up the percentages. If you don't want to see those at that level, you can either turn off the summaries, or set the summary to Average.
