Working with Attribute Dimensions in Hyperion Planning, Essbase, EPBCS and PBCS

Описание

Have you ever had a need to group hierarchy rollups as based on characteristic, for example utilizing a tag called “Green” to capture all green-colored “Item” dimension members? How about the prospect of reporting data using such characteristics in Oracle Hyperion Planning, Essbase, Oracle Planning and Budgeting and Cloud Service (PBCS) or Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud Service (EPBCS)?
Great news! Both business cases can be satisfied with little effort through the use of attribute dimensions. In this blog post, we’ll discuss the topic of attribute dimensions (hierarchies commonly referred to as “attributes” for short) in detail within the context of PBCS. Sub-topics include how to create and manage attributes, how to integrate them into forms and reports, and how to leverage them in calculations.
