I ran an analysis and what I put in on the impacts screen for my direct effect is not matching the direct effect on the results page. I am not sure why this is happening.
Direct Effect not matching Direct Input

Hey Catwoman!
There are a few reasons that the data you entered on the Impacts screen will not match the Direct Effect on your Results screen.
Margins:
Margins can be applied to retail and wholesale Industry Events and Commodity Events. Details can be found in these two articles:

https://implanhelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043678993-Retail-and-Wholesale-Commodity-Margins
Local Purchase Percentage:
The Local Purchase Percentage (LPP) in Commodity Output Events and Spending Pattern Events is by default 100%, but this can be edited via the advanced menu. Local Purchasing Percentages (LPP) indicate to the software how much the Event impact affects the local Region and should be applied to the Multipliers.
Different Dollar Year & Data Year:
In order to see the exact number that you used on the Impacts screen in your Direct Effects, you will need to ensure that your dollar year matches on both screens. For example, if you analyzed your Events using 2018 Dollar Year, filter your Results for 2018 Dollar Year.

Event Type:
The only Event Types that will give you a Direct Effect are Industry Events, Industry Contribution Events, Commodity Output Events, and Institutional Spending Pattern Events. Direct Effects are not a part of Labor Income Events, Household Income Events, or Industry Spending Pattern Events.

Commodity Market Share:
If you are analyzing Commodities, some of the Market Share can come from Institutional Sales (like out of inventory or produced by the government). These are considered leakages and won’t show up in your Direct Effect.

Missing Industry:
If one or more of the Industries that you are modeling doesn’t exist in your Region, there will be no effect from that Industry. If you know that the Industry does now operate in your Region, you can add it by customizing your Region.
