Each measure in the facts are described in chapter Measures. Corresponding Information Sources are described below.

Consolidated Balances

Consolidated Balances information source is based on IFS/Group Consolidation. This information source can be used to design reports/analysis based on consolidated balances which are the result of the Group Consolidation process.

The information about consolidated balances can be analyzed based on consolidation structure, period, balance version, structure node, sublevel node and reporting entity etc. The analysis can be performed for the balances which resulted in different steps of the consolidation process.

Note: There are several consolidation transaction types generated during the consolidation process such as Consolidated Balances, Translated Balances, Profit Elimination, Ownership Elimination, Intercomany Elimination. Therefore, the reports should be based on the appropriate selection of consolidation transaction types. Eg: Consolidated Balance Sheet should be based on consolidation transaction type 'Consolidated Balances'. If not the balances could be duplicated.

Consolidation Reported Balances

Consolidation Reported Balances information source is based on IFS/Group Consolidation. This information source can be used to design reports/analysis based on reporting and adjustment journals that are to be used in the Group Consolidation process.

Consolidated Parallel Balances

Consolidated Parallel Balances information source is based on IFS/Group Consolidation. This information source can be used to design reports/analysis based on parallel consolidated balances which are the result of Parallel Consolidation process.

The information about parallel consolidated balances can be analyzed based on consolidation structure, parallel consolidation structure, period, balance version, structure node, sublevel node and reporting entity, parallel structure node, parallel structure sub node/dimension value etc. The analysis can be performed for the balances which resulted in different steps of the parallel consolidation process.

Note: There are several consolidation transaction types generated during the Parallel Consolidation process such as Parallel Consolidated Balances, Parallel Transferred Balances, Rollback Intercompany Elimination, Parallel Dimension Elimination. Therefore, the reports should be based on the appropriate selection of consolidation transaction types. If not the balances could be duplicated.

Consolidated Balance Set Analysis

Consolidated Balance Set Analysis information source is based on IFS/Group Consolidation. This information source can be used to design reports/analysis based on consolidated balances which are the result of the Group Consolidation process.

The consolidated balances generated as a result of the Group Consolidation process are generated as accumulated balances for a given period. Therefore, these accumulated balances should be segregated to each period by using Calculate Period Balances process before used to design reports/analysis.

The information about period consolidated balances can be analyzed based on consolidation structure, period, balance version, structure node, sublevel node and reporting entity etc. The analysis can be performed only for the period balances with the transaction type Consolidated Balances.

The report/analysis will retrieve data according to the configuration set by the BI Consolidation Balance Set Period Analysis Configuration in the IFS Applications. User can predefine which information should be retrieved to each accounting period using the BI Consolidation Balance Set Period Configuration, using the different balance versions based on budget or actual. The ETL process must also be configured to define GL Balance Sets representing measures like Actual (ACT), Budget (Bud), Current Forecast (CFC) and Next Forecast (NFC).  All amounts are in base currency.

Overview Dimensions

Configurations

The Group Consolidation cube is designed to use only one master company which means that it is necessary configure a specific master company to be used by this cube. The created/selected identity must also be defined in the configuration Consolidation Master Company. Config should be made for record IFS_BI_GroupConsolidation_Orig. The configuration tools has been prepared to set up three different cubes using records IFS_BI_GroupConsolidation_Alt1 and _Alt2 for additional cubes.

Configurations for Accounting Structures and - Attributes are made in tabs Consol Accounting Struct Lookup and - Attr Lookup respectively.

The cube supports calculation of base currency amounts to a reporting currency. To make this work it is necessary to create/select a currency rate type in one company as the rate source. The relevant configuration lookup must also be defined. TBD if implemented

Please refer technical documentation for more informtation.

Limitations

The cube is limited to use only one master company. See previous section.

Combinations of facts and dimensions that do not match will not give any results (See chapter Fact and Dimension Connections).

Fact and Dimension Connections

The following picture shows how different facts in the cube are connected to the available dimensions.

Measures

General

Aggregation of measures is based on SUM if not explicitly noted.

Balances/Amounts do not include Period 0 or periods >12. These are only visible using measure Balance Orig. It can be chosen whether to use Reverse Income Statement balances for Cost and Revenue accounts. In this case db-column Balance_RIS is used. This setting is done in SSIS Config Utility per Fact table.  This behaviour is common for all balances and amounts.

Note!
All measures are described in Node Currency Amounts if nothing else stated. Other types of measures are Group Currency, GC or Currency amounts, using suffix Curr.

Calculated Measures

Calculated measures are in the cube calculated with respect to other measures. The table below defines the general meaning/definition of each calculated measure.

Measure Meaning
Diff <amount> - Budget <amount> <amount> Balance - Budget <amount>
% Diff of Budget (<amount>) (<amount> Balance - Budget <amount>)/abs(Budget <amount>)

Time Based Measures

Time based measures are calculated in the cube with respect to other measures. The table below defines the meaning/definition of  the different time measures. These measures need to be used with a specific time dimension hierarchy defined in the table below.

Measure Meaning
YTD Aggregated value for current period in current accounting year. E.g. for period 201210 YTD represents sum of periods 201201-201210.
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
YTD Avg Average aggregated value for current period in current accounting year. E.g. for period 201210 YTD Avg represents sum of periods 201201-201210 / number of periods 201201-201210 e.g.10 periods
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
R12 - Rolling 12 For a given period, the sum all periods from one year back up to the current period. E.g. Rolling 12 for 201210 is the sum of periods 201111 - 201210
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
PY - Previous Year The value of the corresponding period one year back. E.g. for period 201210, the value of period 201110.
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
YTD PY - YTD Previous Year Aggregated value for corresponding period one year back. E.g. for period 201210 YTD Previous Year represents sum of periods 201101-201110.
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
YTD Avg PY - YTD Average Previous Year Average Aggregated value for corresponding period one year back. E.g. for period 201210 YTD Previous Year represents sum of periods 201101-201110 / number of periods 201101-201110 e.g.10 periods
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
R12 PY - Rolling 12 Previous Year For a given period, first going one year back, then taking the sum all periods from one (more) year back up to the previous period. E.g. for period 201210 the sum of period 201011-201110
Based on hierarchies [REPORTING DATE].[RepAccPerFHy] or [RepAccPerSHy].
