After clicking on Apply 5% increase the CY Budget column is empty.
The Label uses procedure BUD - Increase Sales Budget by 5%.
I checked formula of Data model procedure BUD - increase Sales Budget by 5%. It is set correctly to a*1.05 as you can see in the 2nd screen.

Any idea where the error might be?

I repeated all the steps from 207 finding no solution…

The same when I execute Dynamic increase. I think the mistake is somewhere before Module 207 ?

Hi Michael,

I do not have access to my own training environment at the moment so I can't double-check my own equivalent of this, but I suspect that the issue is that you are not selecting the previous year in the Edit Layout part of the dataflow. Can you check the steps and confirm whether you are supposed to be doing that?

Hi Crystal, you're right. I checked Data Model > Procedures > BUD - Increase Budget by 5% > EDIT > 3 Data Flow > EDIT Layout (of a. ACT - DF - Sales LC) and changed Time functions to PY.

Now everything is as it should be…

Many thanks! (I think I need to work more with board to ge t more routine… :-)).

Info: I looked again at Level 200: Module 207, Step 1.3: Nothing there about setting PY… (I use the german version).
