About Resolving Dimension Keys


By default, dimension key resolution is performed by the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse in the load mapping. The load mapping uses prepackaged, reusable lookup transformations to provide prepackaged dimension key resolution. This section describes how dimension keys are looked up and resolved.

There are two commonly used methods for resolving dimension keys. The first method, which is the primary method used, is to perform a lookup for the dimension key. The second method is to supply the dimension key directly into the fact load mapping.
