Special operators

Special operators are used in indirect referencing, in assigning special variables, in text calculations and other instances that require special pre-processing by XERAS before performing standard calculations.

In some cases, these may require a substitution of data or references within a particular spreadsheet within a formula. In this way, templates can be more extensively customised during calculation and therefore retain a standard format that will result in a decrease in templates in your model.

Special operators can be used to reference values and text within formula or within descriptive fields.

There is only one special operator.
