Detailed Profitability Business Dimensions

The Business dimensions in the model contain members that store information that is specifically related to the requirements of the business or organization, such as product types, sales regions, manufacturing processes, general ledger accounts, payroll, departments, activities, locations, customers, and products and so on. They may apply to one or more stages or models.

At least one Business dimension type must be defined when creating the Detailed Profitability application by the user.

One or two of the Business dimensions are used as Measures dimensions when defining the Source and Destination stages for the application. These dimensions are identified as the Source or Destination Measures dimensions during Model Data Registration.
