access group
A security property used to provide view access to artifacts. The following items use access groups for security: cubes, workflow profiles, confirmation rules and profiles, certification question groups and profiles, data sources, transformation rule groups and profiles, form template groups and profiles, journal template groups and profiles, cube view groups and profiles, dashboard maintenance units and profiles, and data management groups and profiles.
access permissions
A set of operations users can perform on a task or property.
account
A dimension containing the financial, statistical, and other associated data details. The account dimension provides for certain properties that can be used for financial type processes. For example, storage of the data from a period-to-period basis such as account type, variance presentation such as better/worse reporting, and currency translation including income statement and balance sheet rate types.
account blocking
How accounts accept input data in the consolidated file.
account eliminations
Accounts with values set to zero in the consolidated file during consolidation.
account type
A member property on the account dimension that controls the account. This changes how accounts roll up to parent accounts, translates, and responds to the view dimension.
active-active high availability system
A system that all available members can service requests.
active-passive high availability system
In a failover server, this acts as a backup to the active-active system when a member fails.
activity
Transactions occurring within an account during an accounting period. For example, financial transactions and journal entries.
activity-level authorization
Defines user access to application components and the types of activities they can perform on an application component.
adapter
Software that enables a program to integrate data and metadata from target and source systems.
adhoc analysis
Using a spreadsheet environment to report on data loaded to the cube, which empowers users to create their own reports.
adhoc report
An online analytical query created dynamically by a user.
adj profile
An Input Child workflow profile used to set up journal entry tasks in either a base input profile or a parent input profile.
admin
The default administrator account set up on the Administration Server.
aggregate cell
A cell comprised of numerous cells.
aggregate storage database
A database model that supports large data volumes.
aggregate view
A collection of aggregate cells based on the levels of the members within each dimension, such as BI Blend.
aggregation
Storing values in an aggregate storage database.
aggregation info
A BI Blend parameter that configures whether aggregation is used for a dimension type based on the hierarchies built in the Dimension Library.
aggregation script
A file outlining the collection of aggregate views to be built into an aggregation.
aggregation weight
A relationship property requiring a keyed in number to change how the given member roll ups to its parent. This property is multiplicative, so if you enter a 0, that member’s data does not roll up to its parent member.
alias
An alternative name.
alias table
A table holding alternative names for members.
alternate hierarchy
A hierarchy of shared members created in the Dimension Library. This may be used to meet different reporting requirements.
alternate input currency
A member property on the flow that enables this member to enter a different currency than its local entity.
analytic blend
Term used to describe when cube data blends with non-cube data. This is the concept of aligning different data sets into a consumable, unified reporting view on a dashboard. This data can be cube consolidation based planning, specialty planning, relational, or operational/transactional data that stays in its current position and operational/transactional data that needs light to moderate financial intelligence added. For example, BI Blend.
ancestor
A branch member that has members below it.
application
A related set of dimensions and dimension members used to meet a specific set of analytical or reporting requirements.
application administrator
A person responsible for setting up, configuring, maintaining, and controlling an application.
application currency
The default reporting currency for the application.
application migration utility
A command-line utility for moving applications and data in a system.
application properties
Used to control the global point of view, number formatting, currencies, dimension aliases, and standard report formatting that impacts how a user views a report.
application security roles
Security roles that control access to perform specific actions in a OneStream application.
application user interface roles
Security roles that control access to application pages and tools.
artifact
An individual application or repository item.
assignment
The relationship between a source and destination in the allocation model that controls the direction of allocated costs or revenue flow.
attribute
A characteristic of a dimension member.
attribute association
A relationship in a database outline in which a member in an attribute dimension describes a characteristic of a member in the base dimension.
attribute calculations dimension
A system-defined dimension that operates the SUM, COUNT, AVG, MIN, and MAX calculations on groups of members.
attribute dimensions
A special type of dimension used in a cube that provides the ability to introduce additional detail from the data source while not negatively affecting the size or performance.
attribute reporting
A reporting process based on the attributes of the base dimension members. See also base dimension.
attribute type
A text, numeric, boolean, date, or linked-attribute type that enables different functions for grouping, selecting, or calculating data.
attribute value dimensions
Dimensions in a cube that can store numeric data.
authentication service
Identity verification mechanism, comparable to passwords, for time-sharing systems. Authenticates network clients by servers enabling many users to work on multiple tasks at the same time using the same service.
auto reversing
A journal created at the beginning of a reporting period that reverses entries made in the accounting period immediately preceding the current one.
automated stage
A stage that does not require human intervention.
average rate
A standard type of exchange rate where currencies are evaluated at an average monthly rate.
