ODB-REQ-DIM-REBLD      Alpha 1                                   IAAP.1
Required Dimension     The value in the Required Dimension
Rebuild                Rebuild field is set by the system. The
                       value is based on whether changes that
                       require the dimensions to be rebuilt
                       have been made to the data mart.

                       Valid values are:
                       Y = Yes
                       N = No; Default value.

ODB-REQ-DATA-REBLD     Alpha 1                                   IAAP.1
Element: Required Data The Required Data Reload field is set
                       by the system. The setting is based on
                       whether changes that require the data
                       values to be reloaded have been made to
                       the data mart.

                       Valid values are:
                       Y = Yes
                       N = No; Default value.

ODB-LOCK-OPTION        Alpha 1
Element: Lock Option   The Lock Option field provides
                       additional security by preventing
                       changes to the data mart definition,
                       even if the user tries to initiate an
                       outline build or a data load. The
                       operation of this field depends on the
                       user's security privileges.

                       Value values are:
                       Y = Yes
                       N = No; Default value.

ODB-PROCESSING         Alpha 1
Element: Processing    The Processing field shows the current
                       status of the data mart. It provides a
                       locking mechanism to prevent updates
                       when data is being loaded to the data
                       mart.

                       Value values are:
                       ~ = No data is being processed
                       M = Outline build in process
                       D = Data load in process
                       C = Data mart calculation in process

                       " " = Not Processing
                       L = Process Lawson Data
                       A = Process MSOLAP
                       F = FTP Data

ODB-AUTO-REBUILD       Alpha 1

                       whether the data mart should be rebuilt
                       if dimensions or data values have
                       changed. If an incremental data load is
                       requested, this field uses the values in
                       the Required Dimension Rebuild and
                       Required Data Reload fields to determine
                       if the data mart should be reloaded. Set
                       this field to Y if all data for a
                       complete load is still available.

                       Valid values are:
                       Y = Yes
                       N = N; Default value.

ODB-ERROR-LOG-NBR      Numeric 3

                       error message number found during the
                       outline build or data mart load.

ODB-LAST-DIM-SEQ       Numeric 4                                 IAAP.1
Last Dimension         The Last Dimension Sequence Number
Sequence Number        field contains the sequence number of
                       the last dimension in the outline. The
                       number in this field determines the
                       number of the next dimension that is
                       added to the outline.

ODB-STAGE-APP-NAME     Alpha 8  (Lower Case)

                       that is temporarily created when the
                       data mart staging option is set. Staging
                       a data mart lets users work with the
                       data mart while data is being loaded.

Sources Exist          determines whether external data sources
                       are used to update the data mart. A
                       value of Y (Yes) in this field indicates
                       that external data sources exist,
                       thereby preventing the administrator
                       from clearing the data mart prior to
                       updating it.

                       Valid values are:
                       Y = Yes. External data sources exist.
