Support for Transient Text Data Type
Dimensions now support the Transient Text data type, which displays the data as text without storing.
Applies to: Financial Consolidation and Close, FreeForm, Planning, Tax Reporting
Because regular textual data can indirectly result in "Out of Memory" errors, we've added support for Transient Text data types. Transient Text data displays at runtime in Web forms, Smart View, and Reports, but does not persist into Essbase or in the relational database.
NOTE: Transient Text is not stored in Essbase or in the relational database. If an existing member is changed to use the Transient Text data type, then the existing data will not be displayed in the form and the data will not be deleted from Essbase.
Business Benefit: Using the Transient Text data type instead of the Text data type for textual data reduces "Out of Memory" errors.
