Changing Time Bucket Profile

Former Member

Hi,

Can anyone let us know the steps to be performed if we have to change the Time bucket profile in one of the Views of the planning book.

We have a Planning book with 3 Views (Yearly/ Quarterly/ Monthly), we need to change the TB profile in the Quarterly view to show one more quarter in future, than what it is showing right now.

Do we have to deactivate the complete Planning area for this?

It would be great if someone can help us with the steps reqd for this, so that we test if it works ?

Thanks in Advance for your help.

Ashok Verma.

Hi Ashok,

No need to deactivate the planning area or anything for changing the Time Bucket profiles in a Data View.

All you have to is as follows:

1. Create a new time bucket profile as per your requirement or modify the existing one.

2. Go to Edit mode of the plannning book / Data view combination and update the TB Profile to newly created one. If you have modified the existing one - just select it from the drop down list once again.

3. Save the data view by clicking on the Complete button in Key figures tabstrip.

4. A Message should come saying the macros were adjusted to reflect the new time bucket profile.

5. Check the macros in Macrobuilder and make sure they are active (Green).

6. Open the Planning Book / Data View in Interactive Planning - you should see the additional quarter in future.

7. Create a transport for the planning book (and TB Profile also) for moving to Production system.

Thanks,

Somnath

if you dont want your old time bucket profile anymore and if you want to do it quick and dirty just go to your time bucket profile and change it in the new periods

and save it.

Your dataview will change. Am not sure of your macros but i think it should change too automatically if you enter the plannign book again. but bett

er confirm
