If a parent entity is marked as dynamic calc, what is the effect on the entity dimension during consolidation?

• A. The entity dimension is updated with fixed values.
• B. The consolidation updates the entity dimension with an alternate calc.
• C. The consolidation has no effect on the entity dimension.
• D. An error occurs.

Answer: (C)

When a parent entity is set to dynamic calc, its value is not stored as a fixed number. Instead, that parent’s value is computed on the fly from its child entities during consolidation. Because nothing about the entity structure or its members is written or changed—the calculation happens at run time and only the resulting value is produced—the entity dimension itself remains untouched. In short, dynamic calc affects how the value is derived, not how the entity dimension is stored or updated.
