Question #16
Assuming you have a Period dimension with calendar months rolling to quarters to total
years. If you assign the property Time Balance Last to the "Headcount" account member,
what will user see for Q1?
A. January's value
B. March's value
Explanation: Set the time balance as last when you want the parent value to
represent
the value of the last member in the branch (often at the end of a time period).
Note:
Essbase - Time balance properties
The tags :
first,
last,
average,
and expense
are available exclusively for use with accounts dimension members.
Using this tag requires an accounts dimension and a time dimension
If an accounts dimension member uses the time balance property, it affects how
Essbase
calculates the parent of that member in the time dimension. By default, a parent in
the time
dimension is calculated based on the consolidation and formulas of its children.
For
example, in the database in this scenarion, the Q1 member is the sum of its
children (Jan,
Feb, and Mar). However, setting a time balance property causes parents, for
example Q1,
to roll up differently.
If you set the time balance as first, last, or average, set the skip property to tell
Essbase
what to do when it encounters missing values or values of 0.

Question #33
Planning utilizes which type of database to store data (for example, "the numbers")?
A. Block Storage Option Essbase database
C. Relational database
D. XOLAP database
E. Proprietary database
Explanation: Since version 7, Essbase has supported two "storage options" (BSO
and
ASO) which take advantage of sparsity to minimize the amount of physical
memory and
disk space required to represent large multidimensional spaces. The Essbase
patent
describes the original method, which aimed to reduce the amount of physical
memory
required without increasing the time required to look up closely-related values.
With the
introduction of alternative storage options, marketing materials called this the
Block
Storage Option (Essbase BSO), later referred to as Essbase Analytics.
(BSO) enables driver-based scenario modeling, forecasting, and predictive
analytic
applications.
Note: To give you our idea of the ideal application of ASO and BSO,:
ASO Database: The ASO database is ideal for dynamically built Essbase cubes
that are
usually Read Only and used for reporting, presentation, and analysis. This type of
database would also tend to have a rather large outline where at least one
dimension has a
significant amount of members. A parts dimension or product dimension comes to
mind.Behind this ASO database would be a large BSO parent Essbase database,
from
which the dynamic ASO databases are built on the fly.
BSO Database: The BSO database is ideal for virtually any size cube, but where
performance is not necessarily the number one priority. Accuracy and
completeness of
data would be the main consideration. The BSO database is ideal as the large
parent
database where users from many different departments can trigger jobs which will
dynamically build ASO reporting cubes on an as needed basis. The typical BSO
database
is ideally suited for financial analysis applications.

Question #35
Identify the two true statements with regard to Versions and Scenarios.
A. Versions control data entry based on time periods set by the administrator.
D. Users must have the same security settings in the Version dimension as they
have in the Scenario dimension.
Explanation: C: You use the Scenario and Version dimensions to create individual
plans
to be reviewed and
approved. Each scenario/version combination contains its own set of data for the
accounts
and
other dimensions of each entity. After users complete data entry for an entity for a
specific
scenario and version, they can submit or promote the data for the entity to
another user for
review and approval. The intersection of entity, scenario, and version is referred to
as a
planning unit. Planning tracks the status of each planning unit as it moves through
the
review
process.
D: Seems likely.

Question #45
You are designing a new Planning application. Which two requirements dictate multiple
plan types in a single Planning application?
A. Multiple currencies are required.
C. Sales are planned by product and channel, and salary expenses are planned by
position.
D. Security is applied to the Entity dimension but can differ for users for accounts
"sales" and "expenses".
Explanation: C: When you define an entity member, you assign a plan type for
which it is
valid. If you do not
assign a plan type to a member, that members children do not have access to that
plan
type. If
you move a member, and the new parent of that member is valid for different plan
types,
then
the member remains valid only for the plan types it has in common with the new
parent.
Your organization may require that different entity members prepare different
plans. For
example, in your organization all entity members may submit expense plans, but
entity
members that are cost centers do not submit revenue plans. When you define
entity
members
you specify the plan types for which they are valid. Because data forms are
associated with
plan
types, this allows you to control which entity members can enter data for each
plan type.
E: You would need two plan type. To add a Capital Expense plan type to an
existing
application see Note below.
Note: To add the Capital Asset Planning plan type to a Planning application:
1 In Performance Management Architect, select Navigate, then Administer, then
Application Library.
2 In the Application Library, right-click the application to which you want to add
the Capital
Asset Planning
plan type, select Initialize, then select Capital Asset or Workforce and Capital
Asset if the

If a business rule has a runtime prompt and Use Members on Forms is selected,
the
default
member on the runtime prompt window matches the current member in the page

one of
these
access rights: Read, Write, or None. Access rights for a user can be combined
based on
groups
to which the user belongs.
B: When creating a scenario For Start Yr., Start Period, End Yr., and End Period are

inherent
Data Forms, MS Excel, Web based grid interface for the data entry and reporting
needs.
ata Forms in Hyperion planning provides a standard centralized grid-based
interface for
data entry and data-checks. Customizing or fixing a Data Form issues take lesser
time and
effort compared to the Excel based spreadsheets.
C: Use of a central repository makes administration and maintenance of business
rules
easy,
because the repository stores information for several applications in one
database.
A user or group who has the role of basic user can do these tasks:
* Launch business rules and sequences to which the user has access
* View business rules and sequences to which the users has access
* View all variables and macros
* Edit business rules, sequences, macros, variables, and projects for which the user

Question #53
C. The user has read access to the members on the data form.
Explanation: C, E: By assigning access to a data form, you control which users can
change its design (for example,
its layout and instructions) and input data. Users can select only members to
which they
have
read or write access. Users can edit data forms only if they have access to at least
one
member
of each secured dimension. For example, if users have read-only access to the
Europe
entity, the
rows and columns on data forms that include the Europe entity are displayed as
read-only.
Users
can change data only for members to which they have write access.
D: For bottom-up versions, rows and columns with level 0 members allow data
entry. Rows
or
columns set to a parent member are read-only. The point of view must also be set
to the
level 0
member to allow data entry on a bottom-up version. Target versions allow data
entry in
parent
and children members.
If you assign children to bottom-up versions, these versions display as read-only
parents
on data forms.

Not C: Business Rules are a powerful to automate complex calculations.
However, arule typically runs a specific calculation/allocation on a single Essbase
Database.
E: Macros are used to avoid duplicating code.
Incorrect:
not A:ESSCMD is the original command line interface for administration
commands.
Not B: Cacl scripts is a powerful to automate calculations.
Not D:MaxL, a "multi-dimensional database access language" which provides both
a
superset of ESSCMD commands, but with a syntax more akin to SQL, as well as
support
for MDX queries.

Question #59
Identify the two true statements about Enterprise performance Management Architect.
C. You can create Planning, TM, Essbase, and FDM applications in EPMA.
D. Data can be shared from a Planning application to an FM application within
EPMA.
E. EPMA can be used by end users to manage and update member properties such
as hierarchies and aliases.
F. In the Dimension Library, you can maintain one full dimension (for example.
Account) but filter portions of the dimension for different applications (for
example, Revenue accounts. Balance Sheet)
Question #60
Planning administrators can access which four administration tools via the EPM
Workspace?
A. Planning
B. EPMA
C. ODI
D. LCM
E. Calculation Manager
F. EAS
G. FR Studio
Explanation: A: Planning is available within Oracle Enterprise Performance
Management
Workspace
B: Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Architect (EPMA) is accessible
from the
EPM Workspace.
D: The Shared Services Web application and the LCM utility communicate over
TCP/IP to
the EPM Workspace Core Service.
Note: One of the smartest tools Oracle/Hyperion ever integrated into its product
suite was
the migration utility. Overtime this has evolved to the LifeCycle Managment utility
or LCM
for short. Actually Oracle/Hyperion has taken it even one step further by calling its
fully
integrated migration tool the BI+ Artifact LifeCycle Management utility even
though they
have retained the same acronym, LCM.
E: Calculation Manager was introduced in EPM workspace common Foundation
Services
in release 11.
Single interface for both Hyperion
Planning and Financial Management
Graphical flow provides better
understanding of calculation process
Re-usable rules to share among
applications

Question #61
In the Workforce Planning module, an employee is terminated. What two activities do you
perform in WFP, so that total salary numbers are correctly calculated?
B. Change the employee's status on a data form using the Smart List drop down.
C. Change the employee's status on a data form using the free form text measure.
Explanation: You can change the status of the Employee through options from a
Drop
down/Smart List on a data form by running a Business Rule.
Incorrect answer:
Deleting the employee is a bad praxis. It would remove old salary entries.
You do not access the attributes directly on the Employee dimension.
Note: The Workforce Planning Module for Hyperion Planning provides a robust set
of
calculations and pre-defined web-forms that allows organizations to track and
budget down
to the benefit-level for each employee.

Question #62
You are designing a form for fast retrieval speed. Assuming a plan type with two dense
dimensions and four sparse dimensions, what is the optimal layout?
A. Sparse dimensions in Page and POV, Dense dimensions in Rows and Columns
B. Sparse dimensions in Rows and Columns, Dense dimensions in Page and POV
C. Sparse dimensions in Page and Columns, Dense dimensions in Rows and POV
D. Sparse dimensions in Page and Rows, Dense dimensions in POV and Columns
E. The layout of sparse and dense dimensions has no impact on form performance;
only the number cells on a data form impacts form performance.

Question #63
B. Block size = 40 * 17 * 2 * 8
C. Block size = 50 * 17 * 5 * 8
D. Block size = 50 * 17 * 5
Explanation: We need to multiple the stored (not the total) members of the dense
dimensions (here Measures: 40, Time:17, and Dense:2) with 8 to calculate the
block size.
Note: Data block size is determined by the amount of data in particular
combination of
dense dimensions. For ex: when you change the dense or sparse configuration of
one or
more dimensions in the database, the data block size changes. Data block size is
8n bytes,
where n is the number of cells that exist (ie. Stored, not total) for that
combination of dense
dimensions.Note: Optimal range is 8 to 100 kb

Question #64
Identify the three differences between Grid Spreader and Mass Allocate.
A. Grid Spreader processes on the client whereas Mass Allocate processes on the
server.
B. Mass Allocate generates and runs a business rule behind the scenes, allowing
members not displayed on the form to be updated.
C. Both M-3CG Allocate and Grid Spreader require special roles in Shared Services.
D. Grid Spreader gives users a "preview" to the spread result before saving
whereas Mass Allocate will automatically save results to the server.
Explanation: Grid spread allocates data across the cells on the webform and runs
on the
client browser.Mass allocate triggers a calc script which can allocate data beyond
cells
those are available in the form.
If your administrator has enabled Grid Spread as a data form property, you can
specify an
amount or percentage by which Planning increases or decreases values across
multiple
dimensions on the data form, based on the existing values in the target cells. You
immediately see the result in the data form and can save the new data or discard
it. When
calculating the spread data, Planning ignores read-only and locked cells and cells
having
supporting detail. Data integrity is ensured by spreading values only to cells to
which you
have access.
If you have the Mass Allocate role (assigned in Oracle's Hyperion Shared Services)
and
an administrator has enabled Mass Allocate as the data form property, you can
spread
data using the powerful feature, Mass Allocate, which:
✑ Allocates data to all the source cell's descendants
✑ Allocates across multiple dimensions
✑ Spreads data even to cells not displayed on the data form
✑ Does not require that you have access to the target cells
✑ Cannot be undone after you mass allocate values
✑ Is processed with dynamically-created calc scripts
✑ Executes the calc scripts against the Essbase server, against all dimension
combinations
✑ Can use customized spreading patterns, created by an administrator (see
the Oracle Hyperion Planning Administrators Online Help)

Question #65
Assuming EAS Business rules, a user cannot see a business rule on a data Form. What
are three possible causes?
A. The business rule has not been assigned to the data form.
C. The valid locations have not been defined for the business rule.
D. The valid locations have not been defined for the data form.
E. The Validate and Launch privileges have not been granted for the business rule.
F. The Validate and Launch privileges have not been granted for the data form.

Question #66
Why is the Create Blocks function in calc scripts and Business Rules important in
Planning?
A. Data may not exist for the combination of dense members so you have to create
the block before calculating the data value for the block.
B. Data may not exist for the combination of sparse members so you have to
create the block before calculating the data value for the block.
C. Data may not exist for the combination of dense members so you have to create
the block before block loading data to the block.
D. Data may not exist for the combination of sparse members so you have to create
the block before loading data value to the block.
Explanation: Where needed in the calculation script, you can use multiple SET
CREATEBLOCKONEQ commands to define the Create Blocks on Equation setting
value
for the calculations that follow each command.

Question #67
What are valid data types for the Accounts dimension? Select all that apply.
A. Currency
B. Non-currency
C. Percentage
D. Saved Assumption
E. Text
F. Smart List
G. Date
Question #68
You are designing the storage properties for your Planning application. What two design
principles should you follow related to the dynamic calc storage property?
E. If you use a large number of dynamic calcs, you should consider increasing the
Dynamic Calculator Cache.
Explanation:
B:
"If you specify a Dynamic Calc or Dynamic Calc and Store member explicitly in a
calculation script, the calculation script fails. You cannot do a calculation script
calculation
of a Dynamic Calc or Dynamic Calc and Store member. To use a calculation script
to
calculate a member explicitly, do not tag the member as Dynamic Calc.
E: The dynamic calculator cache is a buffer in memory that Essbase uses to store
all of the
blocks needed for a calculation of a Dynamic Calc member in a dense dimension
(for
example, for a query).
Incorrect answer:
F: Storing the information is no advantage in this scenario.
Question #69
You are designing a monthly projection Planning application. A starting point projection file
is received with the current month data. Data forms, Business Rules, and Essbase data
load rules, and reports should always focus on the current projection month.
What is most efficient way to design the components to reduce maintenance each month?
A. Manually update the forms each month and use a "CurMth" substitution variable
for Business Rules, Essbase data load rules, and reports.
B. Manually update the forms each month; Use "CurMo" Global variable for
Business Rules and use a "CurMth" substitution variable for Essbase data load rules,
and reports.
C. Use the Planning data form utility to update data forms and use a "CurMth"
substitution variable for Business Rules, Essbase data load rules, and reports.
D. Use a "CurMth" substitution variable for data forms, Business Rules, Essbase data
load rules, and reports.
E. Use the Planning data form utility to update data forms; Use "CurMo" Global
variable for Business Rules and use a "CurMth" substitution variable for Essbase
data load rules, and reports.
