Troubleshooting
Problem
What values should be set as INPUT and OUTPUT scale and number of decimals when setting the properties on the column and measure properties sheets? Sometimes measure values do not appear to be correct when viewed in PowerPlay Client - this seems to be a particular problem with decimal values, an example would be totals calculated in Impromptu are not the same as the totals that are calculated by Transformer.
