Add calculation

Abstract

Create a pipe in Varicent ELT with data mapped to Incentives before adding a Varicent ELT calculation.

Once the integration is set up in your model, you will see a new object in the Composer module's palette: a Varicent ELT calculation.

Before adding a Varicent ELT calculation, you must have a pipe set up in Varicent ELT with data that you can map to the Incentives source you want to use. Your pipe must also include an export tool.

Tip

Make sure the export tool uses the Export to CSV option.

  1. In the Composer module, select Varicent ELT from the Palette in the sidebar.

  2. Type a name and description for the calculation and click Save.

  3. On the Data Sources tab, add the data source you want to use for the Varicent ELT calculation.

    Note

    You can only select one data source for Varicent ELT calculations.

  4. On the Source to Pipe Mapping tab, select a Varicent ELT pipe and data tool.

  5. Map the data source columns to the data tool columns from Varicent ELT.

  6. On the Pipe to Result Mapping tab, select an Export tool from your Varicent ELT pipe and then map the columns you want to appear in the export.

  7. Click Finish.

Tip

After you run a calculation, you can see the results of your Varicent ELT calculation or use it as a source in another Incentives calculation.

You can run an individual calculation on the Varicent ELT calculation or run a full model calculation.

When you run a calculation that includes the Varicent ELT calculation, it's as if you're doing a build action against that Varicent ELT pipe. The data goes into Varicent ELT, runs through the pipe, and then is sent back to Incentives as one operation.
