Question 24

Question
Assuming the following dimensions and members: Scenario - Actual, Budget and Year - 2010, 2011, you need to create a data form with two columns. One column should list Actual for 2010 and the second column should list Budget 2011. You do not want to show data for Actual 2011 even though the first three months of the year have been loaded from the GL. What Is the best way to only show the 2 columns In the data form?
Answer
  • You cannot build a data form with these two columns, hour columns will display: Actual >2010, Actual >2011, Budget->2010 and Budget >2011
  • Use Segments on the data form to create the asymmetric columns.
  • Use User Variables on the data form to create the asymmetric columns.
  • Use a composite data form to meet this requirement.
  • Use data suppression on the data form.

Question 25

Question
Identify the three true statements about weekly distribution.
Answer
  • For Weekly Distribution options 445, 454, 544, the quarterly values are treated as if they are divided into 13 weeks and the weeks are distributed via a pattern you specify.
  • The only valid weekly distribution options are 445, 454, and 544.
  • If you select the 4-5-4 Weekly distribution option, Planning treats the first month in the quarter as if it has 4 weeks, the second month as If it has 5 weeks, and the third month as if it has 4 weeks.
  • If you choose weekly distribution for Custom-based time periods. Planning will not distribute the data values across base periods.

Answer
  • Data may not exist for the combination of dense members so you have to create the block before calculating the data value for the block.
  • Data may not exist for the combination of sparse members so you have to create the block before calculating the data value for the block.
  • Data may not exist for the combination of dense members so you have to create the block before block loading data to the block.
  • Data may not exist for the combination of sparse members so you have to create the block before loading data value to the block.

Question 58

Question
Based on the following design: Plan type 1: Summary Plan type with all Accounts by Entity Plan type 2: Sales Plan type with Sales by Product by Entity Plan type 3: Salary Plan type with Salary Expense by Employee by Entity You need to get Sales data to the Summary plan type. Identify the two true statements about sharing revenue data between the sales plan type and the summary plan type.
Answer
  • Planning will build in @XREF calculations in a calc script by default to share data between plan types.
  • A replicated partition could be created to replicate data from the sales plan type to the summary plan type and this would be done if we wanted to store the sales data in the summary plan type
  • A transparent partition and @XREF calculations could have performance issues for retrievals because data is not stored; it is dynamically calculated.
  • A calc export script on the source database with the DATAEXPORT command could be used to export data out of the revenue plan type and calc import script on the target database with the DATAIMPORT command could be used to import the data file to the summary plan type.
  • To disable the building of @XREF, update the HSP Properties file for the application before you click Create during the application creation process.
