You can include a dynamically calculated member in a formula when you apply the formula to the database outline. For example, if Qtr1 is a Dynamic Calc member, you can place the following formula on Qtr1 in the database outline:
Qtr1 = Jan + Feb;
You cannot make a dynamically calculated member the target of a formula calculation in a calculation script; Essbase does not reserve memory for a dynamically calculated value and, therefore, cannot assign a value to it. For example, if Qtr1 is a Dynamic Calc or Dynamic Calc and Store member, Essbase displays a syntax error if you include the following formula in a calculation script:
Qtr1 = Jan + Feb;
If Qtr1 is a Dynamic Calc or Dynamic Calc and Store member and Year is neither Dynamic Calc nor Dynamic Calc and Store, you can use the following formula in a calculation script:
Year = Qtr1 + Qtr2;
This formula is valid because Essbase does not assign a value to the dynamically calculated member.
