I can "enter" or "remove" a calculation, but I cannot "edit" a previous entered calculation. That choice doesn't appear in the dimension where the calculation is. I used to be able to do it in Version 6, but not in Version 7. Any idea? Please.
 
You've never been able to edit a transformer calculation. A report calculation in browser yes. In PP client I think not, can't remember that it could have been done in v6 either.

I am talking about the browser, In Upfront, the choice of editing a calculation doesn't show. Only the ones for inserting or removing a calculation show. Is there a setting I have to change on the Upfront Server to see that option
 
Claude12275,
What options do you get if you right-click within the calculation column (or row) header?
Using 7.3, I get a drop down list beginning "Delete, Edit Calculation, Rename Calculation, " and so on.
Perhaps it's a version difference.

soi la, soi carré
 
First I am using Version 7.0 and the company doesn't have any intentions to move to a later version. I cannot do a right-click on the row I want to edit the calculation. I have to click on the drop down arrow beside the dimension name. The only choices I have are "Insert calculation" and "Remove calculation". I remember that in Version 6.0 there were tow more choices: "Rename calculation" and "Edit calculation". Do you know if there is a setting I have to change on the Upfront Server Configuration to get back the two choices I am missing?
Thanks for your help
 
Only thing comes to mind, but I'm not sure (check your self), is that isn't there UI choice in PPES of Dynamic or Enhanced. Move on to Enhanced if users accept this change, it is much better. Maybe your problem is related to this.

Cheers
