Add the quarter to the time dimension

Hello

We have created a time dimension using the owb wizzard, but did not include the quarter level. Is it possible to add it to the dimension later without deleting a re-creation of the entire dimension?
A new time dimension would probably be corrupt all the cubes (data and metadata), so I would avoid that.
Any ideas?

See you soon,.

Hi Knut

Yep, should be possible.

Change the dimension and select the quarter level in the levels Panel, and then click quarter in hierarchies pane to add it to the hierarchy. You can then delete the link and autobind on details for the physical links to the underlying table. On the hierarchies pane, there is a button "Create map" that will regenerate the mapping to load the time dimension.

See you soon

  • Hour/Min column in the Time Dimension

    Please can someone help me with the script to fill in the time Dimension Table that contains a column of hours/min. Here's my Time_D structure:

    Year
    Quarter
    Month
    Name of the month
    Week
    Day
    Hour
    Min

    Also is it a good practice to have the hour/Min column in the time Dimension?


    Thanks in advance.

    B,
    Sorry if I confused things a bit...
    I wanted to say in the MDB layer, you can model a dimension table (time) with the path complete drill (year-> quarter-> month-> day-> hour-> Min)
    This a logical table would have two sources of logical table to map required fields of your two tables of phyiscal (Date_Dim and Time_Dim)
    You must define the levels of content accordingly for each logical table source, so the user in responses can perfectly break of the year all the way up to Min, their sound a single dimension, actually its two tables and the BI server switches according to the levels of content in the LTS.

    Sorted?

  • How to create the time dimension?

    Hi friends...
    I'm working on OBIEE since the last 2 months.
    I created a few reports; I don't have the time dimensions in the layer of MDB.

    Now, I need to give a few zoom feature in my reports. Almost all of the reports have the time factor.
    As year, month, and day. can I still create the time dimension based on the exercise.
    (1) what is - that I think give the zoom feature in the reports.
    (2) can we have multiple time dimensions in the MDB layer?


    Thank you very much in advance.

    Toony,

    You can create a time dimension based on the fiscal year, and you can have many dimensions of time within a business model. There is a lot of documentation, of messages and articles about dimensions. If you haven't already done so, check out page 126 of the Server Management Guide and read this article. That should at least help you get started on building your time dimension.

  • 1 h period and the time dimension

    Hi all

    1. I'm new to OWB and I was wondering is it possible to force the default time dimension (done using Wizard) to have some 'small' level then a day (say, 1 h)?
    If this is not the case, have you tried to manually update the dimension and mapping?
    Or it is better to leave default dimension and start with my own time dim?

    2. What is the difference between the dimension created as the dimension "time" and with a similar but defined content as typicall dim? (issues / analysis performance)?

    Thanks in advance.
    See you soon,.
    B

    Hello

    OWB can create dimensions date to the level of the day.
    You can use this dimension as a source of a map of your own to create a time dimension to the level of the time (enclose it with values of 1-24).

    Have you considered using a date on the day level dimension and a second dimesion of time containing only 1-24 hours?

    With the help of the wizard makes living easier, but there is no advantage in terms of performance in relation to a normal size. Be sure to add all the clues you need.

    Kind regards

  • Best practices for the Time Dimension

    I'm a new contour design. I need to set up a time for daily dimension, perpetually. In the past I would set up a member years i.e. 2010, 2011, 2012... and a second dimension with the days i.e. Jan 01, 02 Jan.

    Is there a better way than that? I would like if possible do so in only one dimension.

    Have you looked at the Date-Time dimension? It's ASO-only, but has a ton of features:
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E12825_01/EPM.111/eashelp/frameset.htm?sel_cal_hier.htm

    He put everything in a single dimension, btw. I've seen similar dimensions in cubes BSO stored in sparse form. Shudder.

    By default the period dimension is composed of 19 members stored (12 months, 4 quarters, YearTotal BegBalance and exercise). Is it possible to remove the quarters so the size of the block on my application will become smaller and have only the YearTotal > hierarchy of the month?

    Minimum block size if the period is dense and a difference very little time to retrieve time for these members, because they will be calculated on the fly.
    Normally most of the Parents members of dense accounts and Dimension of the period is marked as dynamic Calc.

  • How to add the time-out explicit?

    Hello

    We have implemented beginning period Jan and end of period of Mar for real member of the scenario.

    in the form of planning, we want to show that these three periods but we see all periods / other periods are read-only.

    Thanks for help

    How about using essbase substitution variables, for example actPeriod1 defined as Jan, actPeriod2, defined as the Feb, actPeriod3 defined as Mar and do the same thing for months of forecasts.
    Then put these substitution variables, as in the form instead of the month.
    Then when the change of months, you can simply change the substitution variables and you won't have to touch the forms, evolution of the substitution variables can be scripted with maxl and group upward and demand.

  • Problem in making a chart with the time Dimension

  • Time Dimension type to different values in the attributes - Bug or feature?

    Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.

    But if there is a time dimension hierarchies. You have the option of specifying different values for member attributes in different hierarchies.

    For example.

    A hierarchy has MIN_ID for its members and uses MIN_END_DATE for its end_date

    Hierarchy B has MIN_ID for its members and uses SESS_END_DATE for its end_date

    According to this message and a comment by David Greenfield:

    Gender issue when several mappings for different hierarchies

    "You try to map the same attribute, SORT, on different columns in two hierarchies? In other words, what do you expect the same Member to have different values for the attribute in the two different hierarchies? If so, then this is a problem because a member must have the same value for the attribute independently of the hierarchy. »

    Unlike a dimension of the user, a time dimension seems to allow this and it seems to work as expected. Behavior in this case is the difference between a user and the time dimension?

    Your description of the structure of the dimension is very clear, but I have a question about system requirements. When you say you want to the time running from 17:00 to 16:59, do you mean that the calculation must spand day? for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" to "4:59 PM: 2 Jan 2012".» If so, then this you is impossible by making a loop only the dimension of time-seconds. Or do you really mean it must wrap around the same day. for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" at "11:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012", then again to "00:00 AM: 1 Jan 2012" to "4:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012"?»»»

    If you want the calculation for the period of days, then I think you need to spend TIME on the DATE dimension level. You can leave some MINUTES in the second dimension, which can be a dimension of standard user. You must then two levels of the DAY (with different members) in the date dimension - each with a different set of the child. You can assign the TIME_SPAN to the TIME level 1.

  • Add the dimension attribute

    Hello

    Anyone know how to add the attribute dimension on Hyperion Planning?

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards
    Stephan

    Hello

    If you have more than 1 size of the attribute associated with a dimension, then when you reverse the planning application in the dimension you will get a column for every dimension of the attribute.

    So if you have a TestAttrib1, TestAttrib2 associated with the entity, reverse dimension model.

    Look in the entity of the inverse model dimension, you will see the TestAttrib1 and TestAttrib2 columns.

    Now in your workload file, you can load into the columns in your source file.

    Ok?
