Default members in the reporting application store the data that is pushed from the source Planning application. If any of the following constraints are not met, or if a dimension in either application is not mapped and has no valid default member, then a mapping is not valid and an error message is displayed.
Rules:
If the reporting application is an aggregation storage database, then the default members must be level 0 members.
For information on block versus aggregate storage application databases, see the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide.
If the reporting application is a block storage database, then the default members can be any members with the Store Data property.
If the Planning application has only dimension to dimension mappings, then the default members can be any level or data storage type.
If the Planning application has Smart List to dimension mappings, then default members must be only level 0. In addition, the source plan type must contain a dense Account dimension with at least one member associated with a Smart List.
If Descendants (Acct_Default) is selected in a mapping, the Acct_Default member must exist in the reporting application.
Note: | Mappings that were once valid can become invalid if dimensions, members, or Smart Lists are renamed, removed, or added. |
