Copying Data
You can copy plans from one dimensional intersection to another, including relational data and supporting detail. For example, you can copy Budget, FY10, Final to Forecast, FY11, First Draft.
Note:
-
Selected Copy Data settings are preserved for the current session only.
-
Copied dimension members must be present in the selected cubes.
-
Data must be copied into cells that can accept data. For example, you can't copy data into read-only or dynamic cells.
-
You can copy account annotations, supporting detail, and cell text. You can't copy approval unit annotations.
-
You can't use this feature with attributes, so don't select attributes to be copied.
-
Because this is an administrative function, the application assumes you have full access to data you copy. You're not prevented from copying to approval units that are approved.
-
This feature doesn't calculate data. To perform calculations, such as increasing the forecast by 5%, apply the business rule after copying data.
-
For Copy Data to be successful, you must select at least one member for Scenario, Account, Entity, Period, and Version dimensions.
- Copy Data is enabled for block storage and aggregate storage cubes.
