Question: We’ve inherited an application which has a CORP cube with a corporate COA and additional cubes with extended account dimensions which include the relevant local GL accounts.

Question (cont)

Is this a common OneStream approach and, if so, is there additional documentation about this approach?

 

Answer

  • This approach is not generally advocated by OneStream.
  • We are aware that many customers request this and require their application be build in this manner.
  • However, we would first recommend using relational blending with stage data to give the necessary level of detail in reports.
    • This reduces maintenance and avoids unnecessarily increasing the size of the data unit, which will have a detrimental impact on performance.

Please refer to OneStream Blueprint bulletin on both Data Units and Extensibility.
