Currently the entity alternate hierachies are not used as they should.
Several issues are encountered when using those :
- Validation reports and Intercompanymatching report can not be filtered using this alternate hierarchy. Whereas it is only a matter of what members you want to see.
- When using the alternate hierarchy on an XL3 report, the Group dimension is not working as for the default hierarchy. In such case it only shows the amounts stored with the member value, not adding the "no group". This lead to inconstitency on way data are retrieved :
- When using default Entity hierarchy selecting "Total_Group" for Group dimension ⇒ Data retrieved from Total_Group + No Group
- When using alternate entity hierarchy selecting "Total_Group" for Group dimension ⇒ Data retrieved from Total_Group Only. Need to add "No Group" value manually to have the right figures
The following improvements should be useful :
- Possibility to retrieve validation reports and intercompany matching reports based on alternate hierarchy nodes
- Maintain the way "Group" dimension is considered and calculated, whatever the entity hierarchy used.
