After you create dimensions and members, you can rearrange them within the outline. Before moving members and dimensions in an outline, consider the following information:
The positions of dimensions and members in an outline can affect performance.
Moving dimensions and members can affect the performance of calculations and retrievals.
Moving members could move a shared member before the actual member in the outline (which is not recommend).
If you add, delete, or move nonattribute dimensions or members, Essbase restructures the database, and you must recalculate the data.
Position attribute dimensions at the end of the outline. Otherwise, during outline verification, Essbase prompts you to move them there.
