The following items are checked as part of outline verification:

• All member and alias names must be valid. Members and aliases cannot have the same name as other members, aliases, generations, or levels, in non-duplicate member outlines.

  See Naming Conventions for Applications and Databases.

• Only one dimension can be tagged as accounts or time.

• Only one dimension can be tagged as currency type or country.

• Shared members must be valid.

  See Guidelines for Shared Members.

• Level 0 members cannot be tagged as label only or Dynamic Calc (unless the member has a formula).

• Label-only members cannot be assigned formulas.

• A descendant of a label only member cannot be tagged as Dynamic Calc.

  See Label Only Members.

• The currency category and currency name must be valid, in a currency outline.

• Parent members with only one Dynamic Calc child, must themselves be Dynamic Calc.

• Parent members with only one Dynamic Calc child, which is two-pass, must also be Dynamic Calc and two-pass.

• The two names of members of Boolean attribute dimensions must be the same as the two Boolean attribute dimension member names defined for the outline.

• The level 0 member name of a date attribute dimension must match the date format name setting defined for the outline (mm-dd-yyyy or dd-mm-yyyy).

• The level 0 member name of a numeric attribute dimension must be a numeric value.

• Attribute dimensions must be located at the end of the outline, following all standard dimensions.

• Level 0 Dynamic Calc members of standard dimensions must have a formula.

• Formulas for members must be valid.

During outline verification, the following conversions to appropriate numeric attribute dimension member names are made in the outline:

• Minus signs in member names move from the front to the end of the name; for example, –1 becomes 1–.

• Leading or trailing zeroes in member names are stripped; for example, 1.0 becomes 1, and 00.1 becomes 0.1.
