Setting a Default Alias Table

If you create alias tables with aliases for Account, Currency, Entity, Scenario, Period, Version, Year, and user-defined dimensions and members, you can select a default alias table for the application. Users can set preferences for which set of aliases (stored in an alias table) to use for displaying member and dimension names.

  To select the application’s default alias table:

  1. Select Administration, then Application, then Settings.

  2. In Current Application Defaults, select Application Settings.

  3. For Alias Table, select a default alias table.

  4. Click Save (or Reset).
