Dynamically Calculating Data in Partitions

You can define Dynamic Calc members in transparent or replicated regions of the partitions.

In a transparent partition, the definition on the remote database takes precedence over any definition on the local database. For example, if a member is tagged as Dynamic Calc in the local database but not in the remote database, Essbase retrieves the value from the remote database and does not do the local calculation.

Note:

When Essbase replicates data, it checks the time stamp on each source data block and each corresponding target data block. If the source data block is more recent, Essbase replicates the data in the data block. However, for dynamically calculated data, data blocks and time stamps do not exist. Therefore, Essbase always replicates dynamically calculated data.
