Creating, loading, and refreshing cubes

The OLAP cubes are initially created during installation and thereafter refreshed in the Requester or the Supply Management Administrator page.

The relevant cubes for Requisitions are Requisition, Requisition Line, and Requisition Line Distribution.

You can refresh and reload cubes. A cube refresh action only includes transactions since the last reload or refresh. A reload action deletes the data in the cube and reloads it. In an implementation with robust data, an initial load or a reload can run for a long time. The reload action is only available to the Supply Management Administrator role. You can immediately run cube refresh and reload actions or scheduled to run later.
