Marking Blocks as Dirty

Essbase marks a data block as dirty in these situations:

  • Calculating the data block for a partial calculation of the database only if SET CLEARUPDATESTATUS AFTER is not part of the partial calculation statement in the calculation script

  • Loading data into the data block

  • Restructuring the database (for example, by adding a member to a dense dimension)

  • Copying data to the data block; for example, using DATACOPY
