Rebase(Input: ITimeSeries;
BaseDate: String;
[BasePeriod: DimCalendarLevel = 1;]
[BaseValue: Integer = 100]): Variant;
Input. Variable.
BaseDate. Date, relative to which the function is calculated.
BasePeriod. Calendar frequency for function.
BaseValue. Base value for function calculation.
The Rebase method applies the Rebase function to the specified variable.
Features of setting parameters:
BasePeriod. Optional parameter. The default value: DimCalendarLevel.Year - annual frequency.
BaseValue. Optional parameter. The default value is 100.
Executing the example requires that the repository contains a modeling container with the MS identifier. This container includes a model with the MODEL_D identifier that is calculated by the determinate equation method and contains at least one input variable.
Add links to the Metabase and Ms system assemblies.

// Check if the expression is correct
If Expr.Valid
// If the expression is set correctly, save the model
Then ModelObj.Save;
// If the expression is incorrect, display a message to the console window
Else Debug.WriteLine("Model is not saved: error in the formula");

After executing the example the model will transform the first input variable using the Rebase function.
Expression 1:
Rebase({Brazil|BCA},"2005A")
Result: the Rebase function is applied to the Brazil|BCA factor.
Use: it can be used in formulas of cross functional expression editor in any platform tool where it is available.
Expression 2:
Rebase(X1,"2000A")
Result: the Rebase function is applied for the X1 factor.
Use: it can be used in model formulas of modeling container.
