Reference “My Calculations” by the name vs. the definition/code
Organization Name (Required - If you are an Oracle Partner, please provide the organization you are logging the idea on behalf of):
In same workbook, if you have a 'my calculations' like Total that is referencing other 'My calculations' , the moment you drag it, it pulls in the actual definition (instead of like a name/pointer) in Total, now you have 2 places you have to remember to update if it changes in the future ( once in the previous calc and also now in total ).

This would dramatically simplify custom calcs. Not only does the code become increasingly difficult to read/troubleshoot with each nested function, but it also means that modifying a calc doesn't update all of the places that calc is embedded (Since we're embedding the actual code into the calc rather than just a reference to that calc). This enhancement aligns with competitor functionality.

Please add this! It would reduce confusion when working with complicated calculations!

This indeed is a must have and would make the calculations scalable

This feature has been desirable not only for DV but also the Answers/Analytics calculations.
Definitely an UP vote.
Thanks,
