EPMAxisOverrideLocate this document in the navigation structure

This function overrides one or several dimensions (and their members) for a specified axis (row or column axis).

When you enter the function and then click Enter, the member override is reflected in the EPM pane, but not in the report. To reflect the override, refresh the report.
Parameter Description
reportID ID of one or several reports. Mandatory.
row axis Specify which axis is overriden. Enter TRUE to override the row axis, FALSE to override the column axis. Mandatory.
dimension1... to dimension5 On a Planning and Consolidation connection, specify the dimension name. For other connections, specify the hierarchy name; to specify a hierarchy, enter: dimension.hierarchy. Dimension1 is not mandatory
member1... to member5 Members that override the members currently in the report(s). member1 is mandatory.
  • You can apply the selection to one or more reports, using the reportID parameter. See EPMDimensionOverride.
    Note The master report takes precedence over the other reports.
  • For the members parameter, see EPMDimensionOverride.
    Restriction

    The ID given to a member/dimension/hiercharchy/navigation attribute in the database should not be a keyword.

  • To specify a dimension, you can select the cell in which a dropdown list retrieves the dimensions, via the EPMDimensionList function. If another dimension is selected from the dropdown list, the dimension change is taken into account in the EPMAxisOverride function.
Note
  • Do not use the EPMAxisOverride function more than once on the same axis and the same report.
  • If you enter one function for the row axis and one for the column axis, the row axis takes precedence over the column axis.
Note
  • If the description of a member exists in several dimensions, once you have entered the function, a message appears, stating that the description is ambiguous and recommending that you use the ID of the member instead.
  • If the ID of a member exists in several dimensions, once you have entered the function, a message appears, stating that the ID is ambiguous and recommending that you use the full unique name of the member instead.
