Inherit Metric Formatting in Grid Totals

Before


User Security for Metric Importing

• Secure importing of metric data across a distributed user base

• New Data Channel parameter: enableDataSecurity

• “true”= data security is applied

• “false”= data security is not applied (default)


User Security for Metric ImportingExample

User loading data has access to 12 rows * 12 columns


Forge Sanitization

• Major cleanup, only Forge-specific functionality remains

• Removed all non-functioning and non-supported configuration options

• Removed all configuration options that can be performed in the “standard” UI

Toggleable features:• Application Export• Edit Model

After

Before


Export/Import/Clone TBMs & Actions

Creates a copy of the Business Method and its associated Actions

Improves transportability between clouds

Streamlines configuration of similar TBMs & Actions.


Load Zero Values for Metrics

Allows zero values to be loaded into metrics

New parameter on Metric Import Data Channel: ignoreZero

“true” = zeros are ignored (default)

“false” = zeros are loaded.


Auto-Retry After Job Failure

Improves stability of job execution due to timeout errors

New tenant level toggles for retry options• Number of retries• Time between retries

Applies to:• dimension data import• metric data import• calc-and-store action• tbm_fact_delete• tbm_copybydimension
