Which symbol is used to indicate an unused field in a OneStream Excel function?

• A. #
• B. %
• C. *
• D. ""

Answer: (D)

An empty string "" is used to indicate an unused field in OneStream Excel functions. This placeholder signals the function to ignore that parameter rather than passing a value, which is handy when some inputs are optional. For example, if a function accepts several fields but you only want to supply the first two, you would use "" for the third. The other symbols don’t convey “unused field” in this context: # is an error indicator in Excel, % is a numeric/percentage sign, and * is a wildcard, so they wouldn’t indicate an omitted parameter in OneStream formulas.
