Adding Dimensions and Members to an Outline

You can add dimensions and member hierarchies to an outline in several ways:

Before naming dimensions and members, see Naming Restrictions for Applications and Databases.

  To add dimensions and members to an outline using Outline Editor, see “Adding Dimensions to Outlines” and “Adding Members to Dimensions” in the Oracle Essbase Administration Services Online Help.

  To add dimensions and members to an outline using Data Prep Editor, see “Creating Dimension Build Rules Files” in the Oracle Essbase Administration Services Online Help.

  To add dimensions and members dynamically (using a rules file) from Outline Editor, see “Updating an Outline Dynamically Using a Rules File” in the Oracle Essbase Administration Services Online Help.
