Alias

For Oracle Hyperion Planning and Oracle Essbase, the Alias dimension or table is required to support languages. Keep in mind these special considerations:

  • The Alias dimension must include a member named "Default."

  • If the dimension name is not the same as the Alias name in an Oracle Hyperion EPM Architect Planning application, the drill through landing page does not return any data.

  • When creating Alias table members in a dimension, define them with the same name that is displayed in E-Business Suite, or PeopleSoft. This is the value of the NLS_LANGUAGE column.
