OLAPDIM FILE Data Mart Dimensions The Data Mart Dimensions (OLAPDIM) file stores the dimension settings for each data mart. The information in this file comes from IA15.1 (Dimension Settings). UPDATED BY AC87.1 CXA1.1 HC01.1 HC02.1 GL87.1 GL88.1 POA1.1 SAA1.1 WOA1.1 FIELD NAME DESCRIPTION/VALID VALUES UPDATED BY OLD-APPLIC-NAME Alpha 8 (Lower Case) AC87.1 CXA1.1 Application Name The Application Name is the name of the GL87.1 GL88.1 application that describes the database HC01.1 HC02.1 names it contains. This user-defined POA1.1 SAA1.1 name can contain up to eight characters. WOA1.1 The first letter of the name must be capitalized. OLD-DATABASE-NAME Alpha 8 (Lower Case) AC87.1 CXA1.1 Database Name The Database Name is the name of the GL87.1 GL88.1 database that is stored within the OLAP HC01.1 HC02.1 application. Each application may POA1.1 SAA1.1 contain more than one database. This WOA1.1 user-defined name can contain up to eight characters. The first letter of the name must be capitalized. OLD-USER-DIM-NAME Alpha 50 (Lower Case) AC87.1 CXA1.1 User Dimension Name The User Dimension Name is the name GL87.1 GL88.1 associated with the dimension in the HC01.1 HC02.1 data mart outline. This user-defined POA1.1 SAA1.1 name can contain up to 50 alphanumeric WOA1.1 characters. For example, you might name a dimension Fiscal Year or Organization. OLD-LAW-DIM-NAME Alpha 50 (Lower Case) AC87.1 CXA1.1 Lawson Dimension The Lawson Dimension Name is the name GL87.1 GL88.1 Name of the Lawson defined dimension name. HC01.1 HC02.1 Instead of the User Dimension Name, this POA1.1 SAA1.1 name is assigned by the Analytic WOA1.1 Architect system and is used by the system that provides data to the Analytic Architect system. If a user changes the User Dimension Name, data sent to the data mart is unaffected. OLD-SEQUENCE-NBR Numeric 4 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Sequence Number The user-assigned sequence number to GL87.1 GL88.1 keep the records unique and to determine HC01.1 HC02.1 order. POA1.1 SAA1.1 WOA1.1 OLD-ALIAS-NAME Alpha 80 (Lower Case) Alias Name The Alias Name field contains an alias name for the dimension. OLD-DIMENSION-TYPE Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Type The Dimension Type field specifies the GL87.1 GL88.1 dimension owner. HC01.1 HC02.1 POA1.1 SAA1.1 Value values are: WOA1.1 L = Lawson U = User OLD-DIMENSION-CAT Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Category The Dimension Category field specifies GL87.1 GL88.1 the category to be assigned to the HC01.1 HC02.1 dimension in the outline. Choose this POA1.1 SAA1.1 category by the type of data that will WOA1.1 populate the data mart. Dimension categories are predefined by the data mart. Categories specify the attributes for the dimension. These attributes affect how the data mart performs and stores data. Value values are: ~ = No category A = Accounts C = Currency T = Time Y = Country " " OLD-DENSITY-VALUE Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Density Value The Density Value field specifies GL87.1 GL88.1 whether the data in the dimension is HC01.1 HC02.1 dense or sparse. In a dense data mart, a POA1.1 SAA1.1 relatively high percentage of the WOA1.1 possible combinations (intersections) of all dimension members contain data values. In a sparse dimension, a higher percentage of the intersections have missing data. Valid values are: D = Dense; Default value. S = Sparse OLD-PROTECT-REBLD Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Static Dimension The Static Dimension field lets you GL87.1 GL88.1 prevent this dimension from being HC01.1 HC02.1 rebuilt when the rest of the outline is POA1.1 SAA1.1 rebuilt. You can use this feature on WOA1.1 static dimensions where members are not added, moved, or deleted on a regular basis. Valid values are: Y = Yes No = No; Default value. OLD-DIM-BUILD-DTE Numeric 8 (yyyymmdd) Dimension Build Date The Dimension Build Date field contains the most recent date that this dimension was updated in the outline. The date format used is YYYYMMDD. OLD-DIM-BUILD-TME Numeric 6 (hhmmss) Dimension Build Time The Dimension Build Time field contains the most recent time that this dimension was updated in the outline. The time format used is HHMMSS. OLD-OLD-DIM-NAME Alpha 50 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Previous Dimension The Previous Dimension Name field GL87.1 GL88.1 Name contains the previous user dimension HC01.1 HC02.1 name if the name was changed. POA1.1 SAA1.1 WOA1.1 OLD-MODIFY-ALLOW Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Allow Modifications The Allow Modifications field GL87.1 GL88.1 determines whether modifications are HC01.1 HC02.1 allowed to the Dimension Category or POA1.1 SAA1.1 Density Value fields. Changes to the WOA1.1 Density Value field may cause data mart size and performance issues. Changes to the Dimension Category will require the outline to be rebuilt. Valid values are: Y = Yes; Default value. No = No OLD-NUMBER-OF-MBRS Numeric 7 Number of Members The Number of Member field contains the actual number of members for the dimension in the outline. OLD-DIM-OBJ-ID Numeric 12 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Object The Dimension Object Identifier field GL87.1 GL88.1 Identifier contains a unique numeric identifier HC01.1 HC02.1 assigned to the dimension, which POA1.1 SAA1.1 associates this record to the member WOA1.1 records. OLD-META-PROGRAM Alpha 6 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Build The Outline Build Program field GL87.1 GL88.1 Program contains the name of the program that HC01.1 HC02.1 the Analytic Architect system calls to POA1.1 SAA1.1 supply the outline (description of the WOA1.1 data) to the data mart. This may be the same program as the data values load program. OLD-META-FORMAT Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Build The Dimension Build Source file GL87.1 GL88.1 Source contains the value that represents the HC01.1 HC02.1 source for the dimension outline. POA1.1 SAA1.1 WOA1.1 Valid values are: 1 = Program; Default value. 2 = Rules File 3 = Manual OLD-META-LOAD-PATH Alpha 2 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Dimension Build Path The Outline Build Path field specifies GL87.1 GL88.1 the system responsible for delivering HC01.1 HC02.1 the outline to the data mart. If IA is POA1.1 SAA1.1 specified, the outline build program WOA1.1 writes the outline to an ISAM file and the Analytic Architect system builds the outline using the information in this file. If AP is selected, the outline build program builds the outline directly. Valid values are: IA = Analytic Architect system AP = Data mart outline build program " " OLD-META-FILE-PATH Alpha 100 (Lower Case) Path and File Name The Path and File Name field contains name of the text file that contains the data mart outline (description of the data) for the dimension. If a dimension build program is not specified, a text file and a rules file are required. The text file contains the outline and the rules file contains the outline build rules. OLD-RULES-FILE Alpha 100 (Lower Case) Rules File The Rules File field contains file name of the rules file to be used by the data mart. If a rules file is used, the data source is the file specified in the Data Source File field. The rules file is responsible for loading the data source file into the data mart. Both the rules file and the data source file must be placed in the $ARBORPATH/app/application name/database path before using IA120 (Data Mart Load). OLD-IA-OUTLINE-IND Alpha 1 AC87.1 CXA1.1 Retain Member List The Retain Member list field specifies GL87.1 GL88.1 the value that determines whether a list HC01.1 HC02.1 of members is retained in the Analytic POA1.1 SAA1.1 Architect system when the data mart is WOA1.1 created. This list of member names is used during the operand mapping process for the Performance Indicator suite.
