Creating a Condition Component
You create condition components from within business rules or templates. Unlike script and formula components, condition components cannot be created as independent objects. They are linked to the business rule or template for which they are created. They cannot be shared.
Note:
Condition components can be used in Oracle Hyperion Financial Management, Oracle Hyperion Planning, and Oracle Essbase block storage business rules and custom templates.
To create a condition component:
- Financial Management users only: Select Enable Timer so the time taken to process the condition component is recorded in the log file when the business rule is launched. You can enable the timer for rules, rulesets, and components. The process time is included in the log file for every object whose timer is enabled. For example, if you have a rule whose timer is enabled and the rule contains three condition components whose timers are enabled, the time taken to process the rule, and each condition component in the rule, is recorded.
- Planning and Essbase users only: If you want to create a member block, click the Ellipsis icon, and select a member or function. By default, processing of a condition component calculation starts with the first member you enter in the grid. If you want to start processing with another member, enter the member or function name in Member Block, or click the Ellipsis icon to pick one from the Member Selector.
