PBCS/EPBCS - ASO exclude shared & Dynamic

As you all are aware that Oracle releases patches to EPM cloud every month (EDMCS is released every 2 months) and the patches are applied on first-week of Friday in Dev and third-week of Friday in Prod I did a post long back about a challenge that I have faced in on-premise and how I have addressed that. New functions were released in Nov-2018 release of PBCS. Below is an excerpt from the readiness document.

We might have received multiple requests / written different types of calculation scripts where we have to copy a subset of data from one combination to other combination.
