For accounts with the Dynamic Calc data storage type, which capability is supported?

• A. Enter data through a data form
• B. Create Member Formulas
• C. Load data to this account
• D. Load data to this account and create member formulas

Answer: (B)

Dynamic Calc means the account doesn’t store values; instead, its numbers are computed at run time from formulas. Because of this, you don’t enter or load data into the account—the values come from calculations defined elsewhere. The only natively supported capability for a Dynamic Calc account is to define how those values are produced, i.e., create member formulas. These formulas specify the calculations that produce the account’s values across members and periods. Entering data through a data form or loading data would be inappropriate for a Dynamic Calc account, since there is no stored data to populate. Similarly, you can’t both load data and have formulas drive the account’s values.
