In the previous post, we showed how easy it is to use our handy tool called Aliases. But we are yet to talk about its coolest feature, formulas:
1. Formulas for metrics 2. Formulas for report
The first one is simple and clear. Using the same logic as before, we can create formulas with aliases followed by a dot and its metrics: (XYZ.DEBTCURRENT + XYZ.DEBTNONCURRENT)/XYZ.EBITDA.
The formula will be applied to each company under that alias.
Besides the above, it’s possible to write formulas for reports!
What if you want to get a report on companies at the time of their merge and compare that to a third one? Easy-peasy!
(Company1 + Company2; Company3) as XYZ
