Plan Mapping

The mapping of the FIN BSEG x elements determine the leaf elements of the FIN BSEG x Plan dimension. When data is copied from the FIN General Ledger cube to the planning cubes the Plan Map ID is the leaf element that the data is copy to in the FIN BSEG x Plan dimension. The rollup of the FIN BSEG x Plan dimension is inherited from the rollup under Total FIN BSEG x in the FIN BSEG x dimension.

The mapping is based on levels. Level 0 is the leaf level of the FIN BSEG x dimension. Level 1 is the first consolidation of the leaf elements. Level 2 and above are the consolidation levels up the Total FIN BSEG x element. NA is a special mapping where the data against the element in the FIN BSEG x dimension is copied to the NA element in the FIN BSEG x Plan dimension.

To begin, set a level under Map Level Entry for the Total FIN BSEG x element. This level is inherited to all elements under the Total FIN BSEG x element. The initial mapping can be overridden in the Map Level Override column.

You can not override the mapping of component element lower level than is parent consolidated element. This will cause an error when build the planning business segment dimension.

Once the planning mapping has been completed, click on the Build Dimension button to update the planning business segment dimension. The final dimension rollup can be viewed in the FIN BSEG x Plan tab.
