About Alias Tables

You can assign alternate names, or aliases, to Planning Account, Currency, Entity, Scenario, Period, Version, Years, and user-defined dimension members. Planning allows up to 10 aliases per dimension member, including the default alias.

Multiple alias tables support, for example, these language combinations:

  • English, French, German, Spanish, and Italian

  • Japanese and English

  • Korean and English

  • Turkish and English

Note:

Alias table support is not restricted to these language combinations.

You can set alias tables to display members in an application. Planners can set alias tables in preferences.
