From the 27th of December 2021, FactSet will be discontinued (both for estimates and fundamentals data).
- MorningStar (MRS) will provide fundamental data;
- Standard and Poors (SNP) will provide estimates data.
For Excel Add-In versions prior or equals to v3.34.0 (released on the 2th of December 2021)
For InfGet() and InfGetHist() functions
Thoses functions will no longer support the FactSet source (set either as “FactSet” or “FDS”).
Work around: replace it by source “AUTO”. It will automatically:
- Switch to SNP for estimates data;
- Switch to MRS for estimates data.
You can also set those sources instead of the one selected in your previous models.
Recommendation: upgrade your Excel Add-In version to the latest (v3.35.0).
For Quick Report
The Quick Report will automatically swich to the new database.
However, the Quick Report’s fields headers will unproperly display “FactSet” as a data source instead of either MorningStar for fundamental data or S&P for estimates ones. But values will be provided by the new sources.
For Excel Add-In versions greater or equals to v3.35.0 (released on the 24th of December 2021)
For InfGet() and InfGetHist() functions
Thoses functions will no longer support the FactSet source (set either as “FactSet” or “FDS”).
Work around: replace it by source “AUTO”, “MRS” or “SNP”. You can also select directly “MorningStar” or “S&P” sources from panels, depending on the type of data chosen.
For Quick Report
The Quick Report will automatically swich to the new database. And the headers will be correctly set.
