Hi Gavin,

I did not understand how to make it work, maybe you can give me some guidance to set up an account where I compare a specific time and two categories(Actual and Budget)

Hi Gavin,

I am still trying to get AVA up and running on BPC 10 for MS, you don't have a short description on how to set it up?

If I could make it run on BPC 10 for MS I am sure I will have feedback to you from my users

ok played around a bit with the AVA in BPC 10.1 SP1 now, when you change model it doesn't update available members for category (where I got security turned on) and showing different categories depending on model. (So when you change model you still got the "default" categories to choose from.....

replying myself, ok if I skip to select "define variance" after changing model and click ok immediatly (so I get error message: "Base value not set" it updates the existing values in category for selected model (in reality the refresh should be done after changing model)

would be a nice Little fix (if hard just make a refresh button)

Hi Mattias,

thanks for the trying. I'm interested to know what was not working or what made you giving up.

Regarding BPC 10.1 MS, it will be aligned with BPC 10.1 NW to have a HTML5 based web client. You will see a different web UI. We plan to make it general available end of June next year.
