The Multiperiod Performance Calculator (MPC) is a server-side process that identifies, calculates, and commits weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly, since inception unit values, and to-date statistics at the total and rollup levels. Any new performance data or as of changes to performance data are identified and used to update subsequent unit values and to-date statistics. In addition, the MPC can build and update monthly, quarterly, or yearly performance records.
The MPC consists of an interface for defining MPC rules and MPC fields, a PACE engine that acts as a preprocessor, and a second PACE engine that calculates and commits unit values and to-date statistics. For information about configuring user security for the MPC function, including access to the MPC options in PACE, see Configure PACE for Performance Calculations.
In some cases, dynamically calculating multi-period linked returns on the fly requires more overhead than calculating and committing linked returns based on predefined time periods. For example, if you need to know a month to date return every day, you generally have two options: dynamic multi-period returns and static multi-period returns.
