Loading Predefined System Variables into Financial Management Applications (Financial Management Users Only)

To work with Oracle Hyperion Financial Management system templates, first you must load predefined system variables into the applications in which you want to use the system templates. These system variables are execution and replacement variables that enable the system templates to work.

Note:

Do not modify or delete these system variables. If you do, the system templates do not work as designed. If you modify or delete a system variable accidentally, you can reload the system variables into the application.

After you load the predefined system variables into an application, you can copy them to another application and use them as application variables. You can modify and delete these copied versions, because they are not linked to the system variables.

To load predefined system variables into a Financial Management application:

1. From the System or Filter view, click the Variable Designer icon.
2. In the Variable Navigator, expand Consolidation to display its applications.
3. Right-click the application in which you want to use the system templates, and select Load System Variables.

   A message is displayed that lets you know the system variables loaded successfully into the application. The predefined system variables display with application variables on the Execution and Replacement tabs when you select the application into which you loaded them.

   Note:

   You must perform this procedure for each application in which you want to use system templates.
