Transformation Rules for Time dimension
Hi, all,
Could you please advise why we need to add each base time dimension member on Transformation Rules table when source and target base time member are the same?
Irina, I don't have a super technical explanation for why this is needed—but yeah, it is.đŸ˜ƒ
I usually just create a generic Time Transformation Rule Group to reuse across my Transformation Rule Profiles.
Maybe they added this so you can control which periods are available for loading? Like, to prevent loading into future periods. I know there are other ways to handle that, but this seems like a good fit... even though I've never actually used it for that.
Hi,
You don't have to define a transformation rule group and add it to the transformation profile, for Time, if the source time value does not need to be transformed or you are referencing the time from the Workflow.
