The COMPARE function compares text values. If they're the same, it returns 0. If the first text value is greater, it returns 1, and if the first text value is less, it returns -1.

IF THEN ELSE

Tests a Boolean argument and returns one of two results based on whether it is true or false.

ISCURRENTVERSION

The ISCURRENTVERSION function returns a TRUE result for the version that is set as Current in a model. It returns FALSE for all other versions.

ISFIRSTOCCURRENCE

The ISFIRSTOCCURRENCE function returns a Boolean value of TRUE for the first occurrence of a value in a list dimension.

ISNOTBLANK

The ISNOTBLANK function returns a Boolean result for values that are not blank.
