Marking Blocks as Clean

Essbase marks data blocks as clean in these types of calculations:

Using two CALC DIM statements causes Essbase to do at least two calculation passes through the database. In this calculation, Essbase does not, by default, mark the data blocks as clean. Because Intelligent Calculation depends on accurate clean and dirty status, you must manage these markers carefully. See Maintaining Clean and Dirty Status.

Essbase marks calculated data blocks as clean only in the situations described above, unless you use the SET CLEARUPDATESTATUS command in a calculation script. See Using the SET CLEARUPDATESTATUS Command.
