Defining Application Dimension Details

The dimension details differ for each application type. For Public Sector Planning and Budgeting and Essbase applications, you reclassify the dimensions and change the dimension class, as necessary.

  To define dimension details:

  1. After defining the application details, on the Dimension Details tab, enter or click Search button to select the Target Dimension Class for each dimension that is not defined in the application.

    The dimension class is a property that is defined by the dimension type. For example, if you have a Period dimension, the dimension class is also “Period.” For Essbase applications, you must specify the appropriate dimension class for Account, Scenario, and Period. For Public Sector Planning and Budgeting applications, you must specify the dimension class for Employee, Position, Job Code, Budget Item, and Element.

    Tip:

    You can click Refresh Metadata to synchronize the application metadata from target application.

  2. For Essbase applications only: Select Create Drill Region for the dimensions that you want to create a drill region.

  3. Click Save.

    The target application you selected is now ready for use with ERP Integrator.

  4. For Public Sector Planning and Budgeting applications only: Define the application properties. See Defining Application Properties for Public Sector Planning and Budgeting Applications.

Tip:

To edit the dimension details, select the target application, then edit the application or dimension details, as necessary. To filter applications on the Target Application page, ensure that the filter row is displaying above the column headers. (Use the Query by Example button. to toggle the filter row.) Then, enter the text to filter.
