The label value can be similarly changed to ACT after double clicking on the text
NewMember1 under the Label column. An optional description of Actual can be
added by double clicking in the Description column. In the direct data entry method,
new dimension members can be added by selecting New Sibling from the Actions
menu. Every time the New Sibling is selected from the Actions menu, a new member
with Name and Label values of NewMemberx is added to the dimension. The names
and labels can then be modified by double clicking on the text, and entering the
desired values. For the purpose of the example in this chapter, another member with
Name, Label, and Description values of Budget, BGT, and Budget respectively is
added to the Scenario dimension. The final Scenario dimension member list is shown
in the bottom half of Figure 7-18. After all the dimension members are entered by
the direct data entry method, the dimension can be saved or checked in. Checking in
will automatically save the dimension data to the PPS Planning system.
Load Members from Data Source The dimension member data can be loaded from a
data source that has already been added to the Data Sources link on the left pane
Figure 7-18 The direct entry of dimension data is feasible for small dimensions with fairly
static data.
