Which of the following is a valid method to update FCCS metadata?

• A. Metadata import
• B. Export Data
• C. Run a Data Load
• D. Post Journal Entries

Answer: (A)

Updating FCCS metadata means changing the structure and definitions of dimensions like accounts, entities, and their relationships. The only way among these options to alter that structural layer is through a metadata import. This process updates the metadata setup in the application without touching actual transactional data.

Exporting data pulls data out of the system but does not modify the model or its structure. Running a data load brings in numeric values for periods, not changes to the metadata. Posting journal entries records transactions and affects data, not the metadata structure. So the metadata import is the appropriate method to update FCCS metadata.
