Additional Dimensions

Employee

The Employee dimension contains employed workers in your organization. Employees are typically paid compensation and benefits through the employer’s payroll application. This dimension is created if you use Employee budget detail or Position and Employee budget detail. The Employee dimension uses these members:

  • Unspecified Employee—Tracks data for which this dimension does not apply, such as vacancy compensation details with respect to positions.

  • Vacancy—Tracks position vacancy compensation details. When you specify position details, track the position vacancy in the Vacancy member from the Employee dimension.

  • Existing Employees—Parent member for all existing employees. Loads all existing employees from HR as children of Existing Employees.

  • New Employees—Parent member that includes 100 placeholder child members (To be Hired 1 through To be Hired 100) that are used to add new employees during a budget cycle.

Set the Addition aggregation option for child members so that they aggregate correctly to the parent members. For example, add all existing employee members to calculate the total for the Existing Employees parent member.

Job Code

The Job Code dimension contains generic employee roles or classifications that can be independent of positions or organizations. For example, Secretary can be a job code in the Finance department and the Youth Services department. Job Code is used only with the Employee budget detail, and uses these predefined members:

  • Unspecified Job Code—Tracks data for which this dimension does not apply

  • Total Job Code—Parent member for all job codes. Load job codes from HRMS as children of Total Job Code.

  • Default Job Code—Captures job defaults

Administrators can add job codes during a budget cycle to reflect new proposed jobs.

Position

The Position dimension contains the occurrences of jobs in entities. For example, position 2655 could hold a Firefighter job in the Fire Services department. These members are used:

  • Unspecified Position—Tracks data for which this dimension does not apply

  • Total Existing Positions—Parent member for all existing positions. Load all existing positions from HR as children of Total Existing Positions.

  • Total New Positions—Parent member that includes 100 placeholder child members (New Position 1 through New Position 100) that are used to add new positions during a budget cycle.

  • Default Position—Captures position defaults by entity

Set the Addition aggregation option for child members so that they aggregate correctly to the parent members. For example, add all new position members to calculate the total for the Total New Positions parent member.

HSP_Rates

Used only in multi-currency applications, the HSP_Rates dimension contains a member to store exchange rate values for each currency. It also contains a member for input values and currency overrides.
