Left align equation with multiple lines or long equations












0















I have a long equation that needs to be separated into multiple lines to fit on my page.
I would like to align the first line of this equation to the LEFT of my page, and then the following line should be aligned to the = symbol of the first line.



For now I have the following



begin{flalign}
begin{aligned}FC M-0 Future MI (u) = CALCULATE([Quantity (u)],P2_Profile_Data \
[Cycle_Distance] ="M-0", P2_Profile_Data[Profile]="MI", \
FinCalendar[Fin MonthOffset]>=1 &&
FinCalendar[Fin MonthOffset]<=50
)
end{aligned}
end{flalign}


The code above doesn't align the first line to the left of the page, and the second line is not aligned to the = symbol of the first line.
Screenshot of output

          Something like this could work:



          documentclass[11pt]{article}
          usepackage{lipsum}
          usepackage{amsmath}
          begin{document}

          lipsum[1]
          begin{equation}
          scriptsize
          begin{aligned}FC M-0 Future MI (u) &= CALCULATE([Quantity (u)],P2_Profile_Data \
          [Cycle_Distance] &="M-0", P2_Profile_Data[Profile]="MI", \
          FinCalendar[Fin MonthOffset]&ge 1 &&
          FinCalendar[Fin MonthOffset]le 50
          )
          end{aligned}
          end{equation}
          end{document}


          But I am sure you could find better ways like placing the text inside text commands and defining long words with "acronyms" so that the equation could fit in the text in normalsize
