• All table view-related properties, including:
- Coordinates.
- Positions of dimensions in table views.
- Table header cells.
- Sections of table views.
• Table data.
Import Maps
PTAEACECONV converts all import maps into cube collections. Note that BAM 8.8 import maps lack
important information n eeded to complete cube collections, including:
• Mapping between cube collections to main and aggregate records.
• Field mapping between dimensions and data cubes to fields in the main and aggregate records.
See C
hapter 7, “
Creating Cube Collections,” Mapping Data Cubes and Dimensions to Fields, page 59.
For this reason, it is necessary for application developers to provide this information in the converted analytic
model.
These import map attributes are unaffected by conversion:
• All reference
s to dimensions.
• All reference
stodatacubes.
• Notes.
PTAEACECONV converts import map names but changes the names in the following manner:
• Original import map names are converted into new cube collection names using the part names conversion
method.
See “Part Name
s C onversion Method”
•Originalimpo
rt map names are also converted into new cube collection descriptions.
PTAEACECONV does not convert all table view-related properties, including:
• Coordinates .
• Positions of dimensions in import maps.
Organizers
PTAEACECONV converts all organizers.
These organizer attributes are unaffected by conversion:
• Hierarchies w
ithin organizers (for example, folders within folders).
• Notes.
• References to
all parts except:
- Expression mo
difiers.
- Prefix modifi
ers.
- Styles.
