Modifying Model Stages

Model stages can be easily modified; however, if you modify any items after the model is deployed, the model must be redeployed.

To modify model stages:

  1. Optional: Modify metadata, such as dimension members, in the Profitability Applications Console, and deploy the modifications to Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management before you modify the stages.
  2. In an open model, from Task Areas, select Manage Model, then Stages.
  3. Select the stage to be modified, and click Edit Stage Edit Stage icon.
  4. Modify any of these items:
    • Name

    • Description

    • Prefix

    • Intrastage Setting

    • Scripts

  5. Optional: Under Dimension, modify the selected dimensions as required.
  6. Optional: Under Order, use the Up Up Arrow Button or Down Down Arrow Button buttons to reposition the dimensions in the correct sequence.
  7. Optional: Under Driver, select a different driver dimension for the stage.
  8. Click OK.
  9. Optional: Select a stage and use the Up Up Arrow Button or Down Down Arrow Button buttons to reorder the stages.

    Note:

    This operation reorders the calculation and invalidates all assignments and assignment rules selections pertaining to this stage.

  10. Redeploy the model if any items (Other than Stage Name, Description, Order of the dimensions in a stage) are modified.

    Note:

    Stage Name, Description, Order of the dimensions do not influence the Essbase cube deployed state.
