Dimensions
Dimensions describe an organizations 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 parentsatya.attili@prolifics.com

Scenario Dimension
The 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 Dimension
The 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 Dimension
The 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 Dimension
The 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 Dimension
The 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 Dimension
The 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 (EAPush) process
