Most of you know the concept of an IF statement within TurboIntegrator
IF (expression); statement1; ENDIF; |
… and most of you also know the concept of nested-IF statements
IF (expression); statement1; ELSEIF (expression); statement2; ENDIF; |
… and most of you also know the concept of generically using an ELSE command as a catch-all
IF (expression); statement1; ELSEIF (expression); statement2; ELSE; statement3; ENDIF; |
But did you know that Planning Analytics has a maximum number of nests that can be included within a TurboIntegrator process? You can nest up to 20 ELSEIF/ELSE statements in a process. If you exceed 20 nested statements then you will receive an error when attempting to save the process.
If you come across situations where you are using a lost of nested IF statements, then there may be a way to re-assess the expressions that are being used. Give us a call!
