Target, when combined with the range, defines the region in the database where allocation values are written. The target can consist of only level 0 members.
You can use these parameters to further define target:
(Optional) Target time span specifies one or more time periods to be considered for the target. Time periods must be level 0 members in a Time dimension.
(Required if target time span is set) Target time span option specifies the method for allocating values across the time periods specified in target time span. You can choose to divide the amount value or repeat the amount value across the specified time periods.
If basis time span specifies multiple time periods, and the target time span specifies one time period or is empty, you must set the basis time span option to combine. Essbase ignores the target time span option.
If basis time span and target time span specifies multiple time periods, and you set the basis time span option to split, the periods specified by the basis time span and target time span must be identical. Essbase ignores the target time span option.
