You use this process to submit data to a central database.

Features

When submitting data, you can do the following:

  • Send active worksheet or workbook. Sends all changed records on the active worksheet or workbook, respectively.

    Note Note

    Planning and Consolidation places a limit on the number of digits it can send. Currently, the number of digits that Planning and Consolidation supports when sending data is from -9999999999999.9999999 (smallest: 13 digits on the left of decimal and 7 digits to the right of the decimal) to 99999999999999.9999999 (largest: 14 digits to the left of the decimal and 7 digits to the left of the decimal). A number smaller or larger, respectively, than the valid range is either rejected or regarded as invalid in the system.

    End of the note.
  • Submit supporting documents. This option opens the Content Library where you can post a file with or without application context. See Content Library.

  • Set work status. See Work Status.

Note Note

If the work status or data submission validation is enabled by your administrator, the system checks to make sure there are no work status locks or validity issues, respectively, on the data region. A validity check includes making sure that the members are valid, the periodicity is correct, and the member type is correct (for example, the member is not a calculated member). A concurrency check, which prevents data from being sent concurrently to the same region, is always performed by the system for data submissions.

End of the note.
