Introduction

Dimension varaibles are used to substitute a Dimension Member. The objectives of dimension variables are:

  • Reduce system maintenance by replacing many used dimension members with variables. If ever the defaults change, only the variable value needs to change.
  • Make the initial rollout of the cockpit faster. The initial setup of CXO-Cockpit only uses variables and no dimension members. By just correcting the dimension variable values, every report and template should work correctly.
