AttrPutN is a TM1 Turbo Integrator function that inserts a numeric value onto a specific attribute for the current element in a specified dimension. Note that this function does not insert a string into an attribute. To insert a string value into an attribute please see AttrPutS.

Note this is not AttPutN. It has an “r” in it!

Syntax of AttrPutN

The syntax is AttrPutN(Value, DimName, ElName, AttrName, [LangLocaleCode] );

• value, is the number that you want to insert
• dimname, is the dimension that you want to update
• elname, is the element in the dimension that you want to update
• attrname, is the attribute of the dimension that you want to update

Usage

AttrPutN is used for assigning a specified attribute to an element in a dimension.  For example if we define a couple of variables:

vDim = 'Map Factory'; 
vAtt = 'Product';
vFactoryTime = 'ABC';
AttrPutN ( 123456, vDim, vFactoryTime, vAtt);

This will place the value 123,456 against the attribute ‘Product’ on the element ABC in the dimension Map Factory.

Note that this will not work when it is combined with a DimensionElementInsert where both are on the Metadata tab. Please see this explanation for more information.

See AttrPutS for inserting the value of a string attribute in the same way that AttrPutN does for a numeric attribute.
