FirstScenarioYear
Syntax
FirstScenarioYear
Description
This function returns the year of the First Scenario Year.
In some cases you might want to specify a time-series of historical data in Current Accounts (e.g. using an Interp function) and then have the scenarios start in a later year. For example imagine you have historical data for 1980-2000 and you then want the scenarios all to run from 2001-2030. In this situation, you can specify a variable called First Scenario Year on the General: Settings: Years screen. You can then reference this value in your expressions using this function.
Note: previous versions of LEAP allowed you to write this function as "FSY". This is no longer supported.
