Setting Numeric Precision

The NUMERICPRECISION configuration setting, used by the RESTRICT command, defines the number of precision digits the internal numerical comparison considers in the Report Extractor. If a precision setting is greater than necessary for the data, retrieval is slower than it could be. Identify the correct precision level and adjust NUMERICPRECISION accordingly. See the Oracle Essbase Technical Reference.

If you change an essbase.cfg setting, restart Essbase Server to apply the change.
