Deleting Dimension Attributes

Dimension member attributes will be logically deleted instead of physically deleted. Internally, the member attribute will still be retained, but marked as its no longer available for selection. The member attribute information will still be displayed if it was previously set in a journal. When you delete a dimension member attribute, it will no longer be included when creating new Enterprise Journals. However, the dimension member attribute will remain within any existing journal.

If there are no references to the logically deleted member attribute, it will be physically deleted in the next run of the system maintenance job.

To delete dimension attributes:

  1. On the Home page, click Application, and then click Enterprise Journals.
  2. Click the Dimensions tab on the left.
  3. Select a Local dimension, then click Edit.
  4. On the Attributes tab, select an attribute, and then click Delete.
  5. From the confirmation prompt to delete the attribute, click Yes.
