Which of the following is a valid combination of dimensions for an FCCS application?

• A. Period, Year, Entity
• B. From Currency, Movement, Scenario
• C. Multi-GAAP, Data Type, Intra-company
• D. Value, Entity, Account

Answer: (A)

In FCCS, data is organized along named dimensions that form the axes of a cell. To locate a value, you must specify a time context and a business unit. The time context is provided by Year and Period, and the business unit is the Entity. So Period, Year, and Entity together correctly define a cell’s location in the cube.

The other options run into issues: “From Currency” isn’t a standard dimension name (the proper one would be Currency, not From Currency); “Value” represents the data value, not a dimension to define the cell; and while there are valid dimensions like Movement, Scenario, Multi-GAAP, Data Type, and Intra-Company, the listed combinations don’t form the typical time-plus-entity context plus a valid third dimension. Therefore, Period, Year, Entity is the best, valid combination.
