Since 13.01.2017 the SP1 of Analysis for Office 2.4 is available. You can download it here. You need a S-User to download it. There are three new file system settings:
- UseDataSourceDeltaUpdate
- EnforceDatePickerForCalendarDayVariable
- SetEmptiedDoubleDataCellsToValue0
There are also some changes in the User Interface Customization.
You can now create, delete and reorganize groups and elements. A nice feature too is when you create a toggle button, you can get the button state. This I haven't tested yet, but it could be very useful. About the file system settings:
- UseDataSourceDeltaUpdate
The default value is true and you can use this setting to specify if you only want the delta data or the complete data of a data source when you reload or update. If you change it to false, the complete data of the data source will be reloaded. I don't know if this setting makes so much sense but maybe someone use it.
- EnforceDataPickerForCalendarDayVariable
The default value is false, this means the date picker is not enabled and the dates are displayed in a list. If you change it to true, you get a date picker and also there is no fetching of date values from the backend system. This is very useful, many threads in the SCN are about the date picker problem. Thanks.
- SetEmptiedDoubleDataCellsToValue0
The default value is true, this means if you save empty planning data cells, they are saved as 0. If the value is false, the old value remains and the cells are not saved as 0. I don't know if some "features" are necessary when you see that there are other problems like this.
