Cube Suffix and moving workflows

We are setting up TXM/RCM and would like to have the workflows in a separate Cube View Workflow Profile.  We have added a suffix to the appropriate scenario types on the cube setup and created the de...

    If I am understanding your ask correctly, you have a cube where only the Actual scenario type has been used so far.  And there is no suffix on the Actual scenario type.

    Now you want to utilize the forecast scenario type, which is net new and no data so far.  Yes, you can add the suffix for Forecast/Budget scenario type to the cube, assuming they have not been used before.  They will appear under a different cube root workflow profile from Actuals, which I think is what you want.

    That should work.

Yes, sorry Cube Root workflow profile.  We have not set up the suffix yet and they have workflows they are already using for TXM (including a data splitter).  This is in an existing cube.  We were hoping to be able to add the suffix to these scenario types and then move the existing workflows.  We did some testing and it looks like we won't be able to, but wanted to see if anyone else ran across this and had a solution.

    Ok, yea I understand now. Yea it is always better to setup the suffix when the cube is first spun up.  One way around it would be If you created a new scenario in the cube as assigned it an unused scenario type then create the suffix on the cube, you should be able to single out TXM on that workflow. When you go to move the workflow, you will probably have to do it in the XML to expedite the process or you could recreate it. You would really want to test this to make sure TXM would still be functioning like you wanted but I am not sure if this is a viable solution for you.
