CROSS MODEL COPY Data action

[Deb_]

Hey

I have a central model and few auxiliary model (for several departments needing different views in the company)

when all department end their planning - a cross model copy data action brings the relevant data in.

so My cross-model copy data action has few step, on all of them the target model is the same, and few sources.

the thing is that I want the users to define with a parameter the planning period they need are working on. (ex: year 2024)

but as I have many "sources" they have to enter the same periods several times on the prompt.

it's very frustrating - is there any way to use only one date parameter?

Hello Deb,

in a Multi Action, you can define a Cross-Model Parameter, that can be reused when using Data Actions on different Models.

However, as the tooltip implies, that only applies to public dimensions, that are reused in different models. You can not define a common Date Parameter. So as far as I am aware, your use case can not be simplified as of now.
