    Available load method descriptions:

      This method requires that you define the data and driver dimensions, and unique identifiers for the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud application. You define data load and driver dimension in the Data Dimension for Auto-Increment Line Item field and Driver Dimension for Auto-Increment Line Item field on the Target Options tab in the Data Load Rule.

      For detailed information on this option, see Loading Incremental Data using the LINEITEM Flag to an EPM Application.
