Summary


In this chapter, we have introduced and defined the basic dimension of a Planning Application.

We have learned that there are two kinds of planning applications—multi currency application and single currency application. We have also understood the differences between them, not only in terms of dimensions, but also their business requirements.

We have introduced every standard dimensions starting from Accounts dimension to Currency dimension. We have seen the how these dimension look in both Planning Application and in EAS Console.

This chapter's objective is to introduce Planning Dimensions and we will learn more about them in subsequent chapters.

In the next chapter, we'll learn how to create our first Oracle Hyperion Planning Application.
