Hi, I'm working with some long term calculations and wonder if this constant could be added to the 'sc.Input[].GetTimePeriodType()' input function? I realize 3*TIME_PERIOD_LENGTH_UNIT_MONTHS can be equivalent in some situations, but having this constant built-in would make using it with, for example, 'sc.GetStartOfPeriodForDateTime()' much easier/cleaner. Many thanks for the consideration!! |

Using a '3' for the 'TimePeriodLength' appears to be returning the start of quarters rather than "3 months relative to the input date." This wasn't obvious to me previously. Case closed. sc.GetStartOfPeriodForDateTime( inputDateTime, TIME_PERIOD_LENGTH_UNIT_MONTHS, 3, 1 ); |
