New Profitability and Cost Management Application Setting

A new Profitability and Cost Management application setting, Scenario Upper Level Start / End Years Replaced with Level Zero, resolves parent Year members in Scenario dimensions, which are used to determine whether the data for those scenarios can be edited.

  • If Yes, and All Years is selected in the Scenario dimension Start Year or End Year, then the Years dimension automatically resolves to all years configured and allows you to edit the cell level data for the given scenario.

  • If No, you cannot edit cell level data when All Years is used.

Business Benefit: Leaving this setting at its default value guarantees that when the Start Year and End Year are set to All Years, any future years are automatically resolved to the correct year; otherwise, you would need to keep changing the End Year when new years are introduced.
