Essbase 7 YTD Calcscript

Question

Hi All, this is my first post, and I've been really looking for a solution but I could not find anything like it to solve my problem.
I have a cube that I'm loading data daily in a month to date basis.
My date dimm is like:
Dim:Date
-> Months
->Jan
-> Jan_01
-> Jan_02
-> ....
-> ....
-> ....
-> Jan_31
->Feb
-> ....
-> ....
-> ....
-> Dec
->Calcs
YearToDate
MTD
RRate
Dim:Metrics
->EOP_Bal (UDAs: ULT)
->Sales (UDAs: ACU)
As my metrics are balance (EOP or AVG) and some turn over like Fees or Sales but MTD, I set up all of them as TB_Last.
AÑO is the SCENARIO Dim
And then wrote 12 calc scripts to calculate YTD depending on current month:
(Sample for March YTD)
FIX (@DESCENDANTS("AÑO"))
YearToDate (IF(@ISUDA(Metrics,"ULT"))
YearToDate = MES_03;
ELSE
YearToDate = MES_01 + MES_02 + MES_03;
ENDIF);
ENDFIX
(Sample for April YTD)
FIX (@DESCENDANTS("AÑO"))
YearToDate (IF(@ISUDA(Metrics,"ULT"))
YearToDate = MES_04;
ELSE
YearToDate = MES_01 + MES_02 + MES_03 + MES_04;
ENDIF);
ENDFIX
Any of these calc scripts it works only one time, after running one, if I run other one nothing happens until I modify something in the outline save it and restructure it...
I hope you can understand what I'm trying to do and explain.
Thanks in advance and happy new year!

Answer 1

Thanks for the fast repaly, I know DTS, and I use it in other cubes, but the problem with this one is that, suppose I'm loading Sales data every day
Jan_01 (Sales from Jan_01)
Jan_02 (Sales from Jan_01 + Jan_02)
Jan_20 (Sales from Jan_01 to Jan_20)....
So if I declare Sales as as Time Balance instead of TB_Last, January will be the sum of every day of its childs (Jan_01 to Jan_31) and it should be the same as Jan_31 if I'm at the end of the month.
How can I check if Intelligent Calc is turned on?
I found it!!! I added this line at the beginning of each ytd_calc and It works!!!
Set updatecalc off;
Thanks!
