                            MBROPTIONS FILE

                             Member Options

The Member Options (MBROPTIONS) file contains information about member UDAs
and alias names. This information is applied to the members by the Analytic
Architect system in addition to the information supplied by the data source.
The information in this file comes from IA120 (Data Mart Load) for Lawson
member names, and from IA12.1 (Member UDAs) and IA12.2 (Member Alias) for
user-defined alias names.

FIELD NAME           DESCRIPTION/VALID VALUES                    UPDATED BY

MBO-MBR-OBJ-ID       Numeric 12
Member Object        The Member Object Identifier field
Identifier           contains a unique numeric identifier
                     assigned to a member, which associates
                     this record to the appropriate MEMBER
                     file record.

MBO-RECORD-TYPE      Alpha 1
Record Type          This field identifies the type of
                     record defined.

                     Valid values are:
                     S = Summary
                     D = Detail
                     U = UDA
                     A = Alias Name

MBO-ALIAS-TABLE      Alpha 8  (Lower Case)
Alias Table          The Alias Table field contains the name
                     of the table that contains member alias
                     names. You use the Essbase Application
                     Manager to define alias tables. You can
                     use the Analytic Architect system to
                     define an alias name to associate with a
                     member. These alias names become part of
                     the alias table. The alias table must be
                     defined for a specific application and
                     data mart.

                     This field can be left blank. All
                     member aliases applied to the blank
                     alias table name are associated to the
                     default alias table defined by the data
                     mart.

MBO-INSTANCE-NAME    Alpha 50  (Lower Case)
Instance Name        The Instance Name field contains the
                     UDA value or alias name, depending on
                     the record type assigned in the Record
                     Type field.

MBO-DATA-MART-NAME   Alpha 20  (Lower Case)
Data Mart Name

MBO-UDA-USEAGE       Alpha 1
UDA Usage            The UDA Usage field contains the value
                     that determines how the UDA is applied
                     to a member and its descendants. This
                     field is not used in release 7.0.7 of
                     the Analytic Architect system.

                     Valid values are:
                     Blank or spaces = Member only; Default.
                     1 = Children only
                     2 = Descendants only
                     3 = Member and children
                     4 = Member and descendants

MBO-RECORD-STATUS    Alpha 1
Record Status        The Record Status field is used to
                     temporarily mark a member information
                     record as deleted so that the Analytic
                     Architect system can remove the UDA or
                     alias name from the member. When the UDA
                     or alias name have been deleted, this
                     record is deleted.

                     Valid values are:
                     A = Active; Default value.
                     D = Deleted

MBO-RECORD-OWNER     Alpha 1
Record Owner         The Record Owner field contains the
                     name of the record owner.

                     Valid values are:
                     L = Lawson
                     U = User
