Which three types of objects can be created in Allocation Manager?
A.
components that contain formulas, points of view, or allocation Objects
B.
Journal formulas grouped together and executed sequentially to update account balances step
by step
C.
Rules that contain components, such as points of view, formulas, and templates
D.
Rule Sets that contain sets of rules that can be calculated sequentially
E.
Complex computations based on different variables to automatically calculate allocated
amounts.
Explanation:
The Allocation Manager feature is used to create allocation and other formulaic
journal templates for generating periodic journal entries automatically. Allocations are defined and
generated on top of the pre-aggregated balances in the balances cubes and provide the followingbenefits:
* Immediate real-time access to financial balances for allocations
* Accelerated performance with highly scalable allocations
Allocation components include run-time prompt variables, rules, formulas, and rule sets. These
components are stored in Oracle Essbase. The Allocation Manager feature:
* Distributes revenues or costs with recursive allocation rules
* Creates complex formula rules using formula component(C)
* Contains an allocation wizard to define allocation and formula rules
* Uses real-time check of rule definitions to validate correctness of rules
* Minimizes setup and maintenance with reusable components
* Simplifies the allocation-generation process by integrating with enterprise scheduler
* Groups rules together in rule sets to cascade allocations for processing efficiencies (D)
* Creates primary, statistical, or foreign currency allocation and formula rules
