What is an allocation?
It is a system of dividing expenses and
incomes among the various branches
and departments of a business.

Business Samples
Allocating costs across
Often used for driver based cost
components in rolling forecasts Manufacturing costs (e.g. electricity) could
be allocated to lines based on equipment
type and volume

Business Samples
Allocating high level forecasts down
High level values being pushed down to
detailed plans Top Down
Middle Out

Allocations & Forecasting
2011 ClearLine Group, L.L.C. 11
Bottom Up forecasting starts at the 0 level and aggregates up.
Simple system with no allocations Large amount of data entry
Not as accurate as people think
User may allocate off line with reduced accuracy
Users might enter lump sums can cause calculation and reporting issues.
Higher volume of data entry will lead to more user input errors

Allocations & Forecasting

Top Down forecasting starts with a single top level number and
allocates down to the 0 level A fast and simple process with allocations
Very little data entry
Good for an assigned goal
Detailed levels may be less accurate than desired when poorly designed

Numerous Allocation Options
Oracle has provided a lot of different ways to allocatedata within the Hyperion products
There are also third party options
You need to pick the right tool for the job What is important to your project?
Upper level writes
Audit trails
Allocating down verses across Calculation complexity verses large data volumes
In memory verses directly impacting data in the cube
Do you already own something that can do the job?

Built-in Options for Hyperion Planning
Adjusting & Spreading Data Hyperion Planning web form feature
Adjust either individual or multiple data cell values up or down
by a percentage or by a specific amount
Security lets users only adjust cells with write access
Date and text values are automatically excluded
Further flexibility by utilizing cell locking
Temporarily lock cells while Hyperion Planning calculates and spreadsthe results into the unlocked cells within the range
Users are given the opportunity to evaluation the new values
before sending the data to the database

Built-in Options for Hyperion Planning
Time Spreading Hyperion Planning web form feature
Allows data to be entered at a high level instantly allocated
Spreading data based on a proportional allocation of existing values
Spreading week level based on i.e. 454, 445, 544, or None
Adjusts for Time Balance
Security lets users only adjust cells with write access
Further flexibility by utilizing cell locking Temporarily lock cells while Hyperion Planning calculates and spreads
the results into the unlocked cells within the range
Users are given the opportunity to evaluation the new values
before sending the data to the database 2011 ClearLine Group, L.L.C. 20

Built-in Options for Hyperion Planning
Grid Spread Grid Spread must be enabled as a data form property
Specify an amount or percentage to change values on the data
form
Selectable spreading patterns (Proportional, Even Split, & Fill)
Can see results immediately on the data form
Can save the new data or discard it.
Ignores read-only, locked cells, and cells having supportingdetail.
Data integrity is safeguarded by spreading values only to cells
that you have access to.

Built-in Options for Hyperion Planning
Mass Allocation Need Mass Allocate role assigned Shared Services and the Mass
Allocate data form property must be enabled
Spreads data even to cells not displayed on the data form
Allocates data to all the source cell's descendants
Allocates across multiple dimensions
Allocate from either a subtotal cell or total cell
Uses dynamically-created calculation scripts
Customized spreading patterns
Does not require that you have access to the target cells
Cannot be undone after you mass allocate values

Oracle Essbase ASO
Oracle Essbase ASO allocations Added in Oracle Essbase Release 11.1.2
This is GREAT when it fits your needs
Scale up the size of the database
Allows simple allocations to run with great speed
Allocations any level in the databases dimension hierarchies
Spread evenly or as a percent of total
Runs within MaxL or in the API
Results use ASOs temporary data load buffers
Keep in mind ASO database allocations are not quite as flexible as BSOallocations
Write back only at the level 0
Cannot use relative references to dimension members

Third Party Tools
PACE Robust and easy to use 3rd party tool for Essbase BSO
In-memory engine built to extend Essbases spreading and
allocation functionality
Rapid calculation with advanced what-if modeling
Data is only written back to the database when the planner
decides that it ready to send
Pace includes additional features like:
n-Dimensional Locking-and- Spreading
Built-in Business Logic
Inverse Calculation Logic for multiple targets
Multi-Dimensional Web- Enabled Spreadsheet

Calculation Script Definition
Oracle Essbase BSO Calculation Scripts andHyperion Business Rules
Easier than a lot of people think
Allocations let you to distribute values that are atthe parent level across child members.
Allocations are based on a number of criteria that
can be expressed in the following functions.
@ALLOCATE a single dimension
@MDALLOCATE across multiple dimensions
