Modifying Ratio-Based Drivers

To modify ratio-based drivers:

  1. From Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace, select Navigate, then Applications, then Profitability, and then select the application for which you want to modify the driver.
  2. From Task Areas, select Manage Allocations, and then Driver Definitions.
  3. Click Edit Driver Edit Driver icon.
  4. In Define Driver, modify any of the following parameters for the selected driver:

    • Name

    • Description

    • Operation Type

    • Sequence Priority

    • Assign to Destination Measure

    Caution:

    Do not use special or restricted characters in the driver name, such as /,+, or @ signs, because doing so may cause import operations to fail. See the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide to view the latest restrictions.

  5. Optional: Under Define Driver Value, modify the driver formula equation, and then click Validate.

    The SQL driver formula is validated, and a success message is displayed. Address any errors before proceeding.

  6. Optional: Under Options, modify the Allow Idle selection, and the Override Total Driver Value Measure.
  7. Click OK to save the modified driver.

    If you want the modified driver to be applied to the calculated results, you must recalculate the model.
