Updating budget dimensions

You must complete this procedure to create budget dimension files. These files contain the metadata that you import in your budget application.

  1. On Budget Architect (EB10.1), select the budget to process metadata.
  2. Click Submit Rpt to show Budget Report Updates (EB19.4).
  3. Click Dimensions to show Dimension Update (EB110).
  4. On EB110, select or specify a job name in the Job Name field.
    Note: You can reuse the job name that you specify to rerun the dimension update. If you select a job name from the list, click Inquire to populate the fields on EB110.
  5. Optionally, provide a description for the job in the Job Description field.
  6. In the Budget Name field, select the budget to update metadata.
    Note: You can select the dimensions that have changed or you can select all the dimensions for your budget. If you leave all dimensions blank, then all budget dimensions are selected.
  7. Select the dimensions to create import files. A separate file containing dimension metadata is created for each dimension that you specify.
  8. Add and submit the job.
    Note: When the job is complete, use Print Manager to view or print the results. You can see each dimension for which an import file was created, the path and file name, and the number of records in each file.
