Hi Community!

 

I always try to share my knowledge about calculation formulas within the HCM Module, but this time I have a question.

 

I learned the hard way that there can only be a limited number of functions between an IF and an ENDIF function.

 

But is there also a limit of the total amount of functions within a single calculation formula?

 

I try to explain by using an extreme example:

I have a calculation formula with 500 steps (Ifs, end ifs, Additions, Muliplications, Get Wage codes and so on and so on).

 

Now the first 300 steps work perfectly fine (they are responsible for the calculation for a month with 31 days). From 301 to 500 are responsible for basically the same calculation but for a month with 30 days.

 

When I have all steps active the calculation for the month with 31 days works perfectly fine but the calculation for the month with 30 days does not work at all. Now I deactivate the lines from 100 to 300. When I do this the calculation for the month with 30 days works fine. 

 

So as said: Does anybody know if there is a maximum amount of functions/lines within a single calculation formula that IFS Cloud can process?
