View

The View dimension represents various modes of calendar intelligence such as Periodic, Year-to-Date, and Quarter-to-Date frequencies. If you set the View to Periodic, the values for each month are displayed. If you set the View to Year-to-Date or Quarter-to-Date, the cumulative values for the year or quarter are displayed.

You load data into the system at the base-level view. Data is stored in the Periodic member.

Data can be loaded on a Year-to-date (YTD) basis. If data is loaded to the FCCS_YTD_Input member instead of the FCCS_Periodic member, then Financial Consolidation and Close will populate the Periodic member such that the YTD amount matches the input amount.

By default, when you create an application, the View dimension has these members:

• Periodic - Each period shows the data entered, calculated or derived for this specific period.

• YTD - Year-to-Date view. Periods within a year are cumulative.

• HYTD - Half-Year-to-Date view. Periods within a half-year are cumulative. HYTD is only created it if you selected it during application creation.

• QTD - Quarter-to-Date view. Periods within a quarter are cumulative.

• FCCS_YTD_Input - Shows the data entered for Year-to-Date.

You cannot remove any View dimension members or create new members. You can edit member properties, such as Alias.
