| Macros for performance-indicator scripts |  |
| When writing performance indicator scripts all functionality present in tools development kit is available. This means that a script is written in the same way as a report script, an exchange scheme, or a program script. Predefined variables At compile time a few variables are added automatically to the performance indicator script. These variables retrieve their value when the performance indicator object is executed by the batchprogram in the Calculate Performance Indicators (tgeis0214m000) session. These variables can also be used in the performance indicator script. Macros For reading tables and calculating results, the standard tools can be used. To write those results and texts to EIS-tables a lot of macros have been defined. There are macros for updating and retrieving data, for text handling within output files of the performance indicator, and for date conversions. All macros use the calendar, which is linked to the specific performance indictor for writing and reading data from the table. This means that all performance indicators used in a script must have the same calendar code linked, otherwise results cannot be aggregated, copied, or used for other PIs due to a different time base. Before compiling the performance indicator- script the system will check on this. The available macros:
    (1,UPDATE.VALUE)          - UPDATE.CUM.VALUE(2,UPDATE.NORM)           - UPDATE.CUM.NORM(3,UPDATE.MIN)            - UPDATE.CUM.MIN(4,UPDATE.MAX)            - UPDATE.CUM.MAX(5,UPDATE.ADJ.NORM)       - UPDATE.CUM.ADJ.NORM(6,UPDATE.BENCH)          - UPDATE.CUM.BENCH(7,WRITE.LINE)(8,BLANK.LINE)(9,UPDATE.TEXT)(10,GET.VALUE)             - GET.CUM.VALUE(11,GET.NORM)              - GET.CUM.NORM(12,GET.ADJ.NORM)          - GET.CUM.ADJ.NORM(13,GET.MIN)               - GET.CUM.MIN(14,GET.MAX)               - GET.CUM.MAX(15,GET.BENCH)             - GET.CUM.BENCH(16,GET.PERIOD.OF.DATE)(17,GET.DATES.OF.PERIOD)(18,OPEN.PI.LOG)(19,MSG.PI.LOGG)(21,ERROR.PI.LOG)(22,CLOSE.PI.LOG)
UPDATE VALUE
             long UPDATE.VALUE(domain tgeis.pind perf.ind,

       long update.mode,
       [ domain tcyrno year,
       domain tgeis.yrpt year_part,
       domain tgeis.pern period ])

       Update mode: 0=overwrite, 1=add
The calculated pi.value is written to the Calculated Value field for the specified performance indicator. Depending on the specified update.mode, the value is added to an existing value or it overwrites an present value. Year, year part, and period are optional. If you do not specify these values, the program determines the periods itself, using the last calculation date. If year, year part, and period are given, the system will write data to that specified period. So, you can update another PI as the current and also store data for other periods than the current. Return value 0 OK <0 Error UPDATE.NORM
                 long UPDATE.NORM(domain tgeis.pind perf.ind,

       domain tgeis.pern period ])

    Update mode: 0=overwrite, 1=add
The calculated norm.value is written to the Norm Value field for the specified performance indicator. Depending on the update.mode an existing value is overwritten or the given norm.value is added. Year, year part, and period are optional. If these values given, the system will write to the specified period. If these values are not given, the system will determine the period to use itself, using the last calculation date. So, you can update another PI as the current and also store data for other periods than the current. Return value

If these values are not given, the system will determine the period to use itself, using the last calculation date. So, you can update another PI as the current and also store data for other periods than the current. Return value 0 OK <0 Error UPDATE.MAX

Year, year part, and period are optional. If these values are given, the system will write to the specified period. If these are not given, the system will determine the period to use itself, using the last calculation date. So, you can update another PI as the current and also store data for other periods than the current. Return value 0 OK <0 Error UPDATE.ADJ.NORM
              long UPDATE.ADJ.NORM(domain tgeis.pind perf.ind,

If these values are not given, the system will determine the period to use itself, using the last calculation date. If this macro is not used, text files generated with WRITE.LINE and BLANK.LINE will not be stored in database and thus, not be present in enterprise modeler. After use of this macro the generated text file will be cleared, and a new text file can be generated with WRITE.LINE(). Return value 0 OK <0 OK GET.VALUE

If these values are not filled, the current period is read (according to the calendar). This macro can only be used to read data of PI with a Processing Sequence Number lower then the sequence number of the current performance indicator. This to avoid reading data which have not been calculated yet. GET.NORM

This macro returns the contents of the Benchmarking Value field. Year, year part, and period are optional. If these values are not filled, the current period is read (according to the calendar). This macro can only be used to read data of PI with a Processing Sequence Number lower then the sequence number of the current performance indicator.

       ref domain tcyrno year,
       ref domain tgeis.yrpt yrpt,
       ref domain tgeis.pern pern)
This macro calculates the year, year part, and period belonging to the given check.date. The macro uses the calendar code of the period indicator (the PI to which the script belongs) and stores the values in the 3 ref fields. Caution: If the check.date is before the first defined period of the calendar the 3 ref fields contain value 0. If check.date is later then the last defined period, the ref fields contain the last defined period. So, take care that calendars of all years are filled! Return value 0 OK <0 Error GET.DATES.OF.PERIOD
           long GET.DATES.OF.PERIOD(domain tgeis.pind perf.ind,

This macro creates/opens a log file in directory $BSE/log/eis.### (where ### is the current company number). The name of the log file is the performance indicator- code extended with the time period. Messages can be written to this log file with use of the macros MSG.PI.LO and ERROR.PI.LOG. Finally the log file should be closed with CLOSE.PI.LOG. Return value 0 OK <0 Error MSG.PI.LOG
