Problem with model solve - Missing data

Hi people! I'm running a system with data for 2000-2020 y forecasts for 2021-2024. Everything works fine, except the following. I successfully created this variable pib_r_annual:

m_costa_rica.append @identity pib_r_anual = @movsum(pib_r,4)

but when I tried to compute its percentage change:

m_costa_rica.append @identity pib_r_anual_d = ((pib_r_anual / pib_r_anual(-4)) -1)*100

I get the message: Unable to compute due to missing data. However, as I explain above, the series pib_r_anual exists for the whole period 2000-2024.

Could you give me a hand with this?

Thanks a lot for your time!

Ricardo

Hello,

Are you trying to solve the model over the entire period (2000-2024) or just the forecast period (2021-2024)?
