Dimensions

Dimensions describe an organization’s data and usually contain groups of related members. Dimensions define where data is stored within the application.

Examples of dimensions are Account, Entity, and Period.

Financial Management provides eight system-defined dimensions and enables you to populate an unlimited number of custom dimensions that you can apply to accounts.

The elements that comprise a dimension are called members. For example, Gross Margin and Total Revenues are members of the Account dimension

Dimension members are arranged in hierarchies. Upper-level members are called parent members, and a member immediately below a parent member is referred to as its child.

All members below a parent are referred to as descendants. The bottom-level hierarchy members of the hierarchy are called base-level members

Data is typically entered into base-level members of dimensions and not into parent members. Values for parent-level members are aggregated from the children of the parent-level members

Scenario DimensionThe Scenario dimension represents a set of data, such as Actual, Budget, or Forecast.

For example

The Actual scenario can contain data from a general ledger, reflecting past and current business operations.

The Budget scenario can contain data that reflects the targeted business operations.

The Forecast scenario typically contains data that corresponds to predictions for upcoming periods.

A Legal scenario can contain data calculated according to legal GAAP format and rules

Year DimensionThe Year dimension represents the fiscal or calendar year for data. An application can contain data for more than one year. You specify a year range when you create the application and select a year from the Year dimension to process data

Period DimensionThe Period dimension represents time periods, such as quarters and months. It contains time periods and frequencies by displaying the time periods in a hierarchy. For example, if the Actual scenario maintains data on a monthly basis, generally 12 periods of data are available for this scenario in a year. Financial Management supports years, months, and weeks for the period dimension

Entity DimensionThe Entity dimension represents the organizational structure of the company, such as the management and legal reporting structures. Entities can represent divisions, subsidiaries, plants, regions, countries, legal entities, business units, departments, or any organizational unit. You can define any number of entities.

Value Dimension

The Value dimension represents the different types of values stored in your application, and can include the input currency, parent currency, adjustments, and consolidation detail such as proportion, elimination, and contribution detail. For example, the Entity Currency member stores the value for an entity in its local currency. The Parent Currency member stores the value for an entity translated to the currency of the parent entity.

Account DimensionThe Account dimension allows you to build a hierarchy of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense, and so on. Accounts store financial data for entities and scenarios in an application.

Each account has a type, such as Revenue or Expense, that defines its accounting behaviour.

You define attributes for Account dimension members, such as the account type, the number of decimal places to display, and whether the account is a calculated, consolidated, or intercompany partner account.

Intercompany Dimension

The Intercompany dimension represents all intercompany balances that exist for an account.

This is a reserved dimension that is used in combination with the Account dimension and any custom dimension.

View DimensionThe View dimension represents various modes of calendar intelligence; such as, Periodic, Year to- Date, and Quarter-to-Date frequencies.

If you set the view to Periodic, the values for each month are displayed.

If you set the view to Year-to-Date or Quarter-to-Date, the cumulative values for the year or quarter are displayed

Custom Dimensions

Custom dimensions are dimensions associated with accounts.

These dimensions enable you to specify additional details associated with accounts, such as products, markets, channels, balance sheet movement, or types of elimination. For example, custom dimensions could include Product Line, Region, Channel, or Customers

Loading of Data into HFM and moving consolidated data from HFM to EBS (EA-Push) programs as follows. EBS>FDM>HFM>FDM>EBS (Staging TablesEBS (EA-Push)

All data for the VMWare HFM application will be sourced mainly from Oracle EBS.

When enabled by the FDM Administrator and using ERPi, data loads of the Actual financials will begin for all Sets of Books in Oracle for the designated close period.

Data will be loaded approximately every three hours.

After the data has been loaded to HFM, a consolidation at the Total VMWare Entity will be executed.

After each consolidation run, FDM sends out translated (to USD) and consolidated HFM data to EBS (Consolidated Set of Books). This customization is called the ‘Write back (EA-Push)’ process
