About Metadata Loop Components
Note:
Metadata loop components can be used in Oracle Hyperion Planning and Oracle Essbase block-storage, custom templates.
Metadata loop components enable you to assign a value to multiple members using either a function (Metadata) or a start and end value (Fixed).
For example, you may want to assign #missing
to all the "level 0" accounts under the parent "Gross Profit". In this example, you would select the following in the metadata loop:
-
Dimension—"Account"
-
Function—
@RELATIVE("GP",0)
-
Variable—A "member" type design-time prompt
