The Edit Calendar Hierarchy dialog box provides a way to build a time dimension modeled on a standard corporate calendar. You can build a time dimension based on a standard (Gregorian) calendar, an industry-specific calendar, or a customized version of one.
Note: | Varying attributes are not supported in calendar hierarchies. |
For each calendar type, Essbase Studio provides a list of time-period definitions from which to choose, such as year, semester, and quarter.
Essbase Studio supports hierarchies for the following calendar types:
Gregorian—See Gregorian Calendar Hierarchies.
Fiscal—See Fiscal Calendar Hierarchies.
Retail—See Retail Calendar Hierarchies.
ISO—See ISO Calendar Hierarchies.
Manufacturing—See Manufacturing Calendar Hierarchies.
Note: | When you use a calendar hierarchy to build a cube schema and Essbase model, you must specify a default data load binding for the lowest level in the calendar hierarchy at cube schema creation time. See Defining Data Load Mappings for more information. |
