Using Normalized and Denormalized Data Models

If a data model requires change because tables are being consolidated or divided, the creation of the new data model involves additional steps. To create a data model that is a superset of the original table structure use metatopics. You must give metatopics and the columns correct names, so the new data model is a true superset of the original data model. When names are correct, use the new data model in place of the original.

See “Metatopics” in the Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio User's Guide.
