OneStream XF - Entity Dimension

This article goes into more detail about the Entity dimension in OneStream XF. For a brief overview of all the dimensions in OneStream XF, feel free to visit the article OneStream Dimensions Pt. 1 and OneStream Dimensions Pt. 2.

ENTITY DIMENSION

• The entity dimension uses parent and children relationships.
  • Parent entities store data and need to be consolidated or aggregated before being populated by children.
  • Parent entities are driven by reporting standards.
• Data loading locations are the driving force behind base level entities.
• Consolidations and eliminations are driven by hierarchies

Please Note: It is not recommended for base members to be changed into parents after data has been loaded.

Extensibility & Entity Dimensions

• Entity Dimensions are not extendable and each Business Unit that uses Extensibility must have created a different Entity Dimensions.
• These Entities can be inherited via Relationships in the Corporate Entity Structure.
• By allowing this inheritance, OneStream XF can link the Corporate Cube to additional Business Unit Cubes.
