Guidelines for User-Defined Fields and Analysis Cubes

If the Vantagepoint Intelligence module is activated, you can make user-defined fields that you have added to some hubs available in Analysis Cubes for use on Vantagepoint Intelligence dashboards.

The following guidelines apply:

  • For optimum performance, Deltek recommends that you include no more than 21 user-defined fields per Vantagepoint application in the data cubes.
  • You cannot add columns from user-defined grids to the data cubes.
  • The user-defined fields that you select to include in the data cubes are not updated to the data cubes until a system administrator uses the Powershell script to update the data cubes with the user-defined fields.
  • If you clear the Available for Analysis Cubes check box for a user-defined field after you create reports that include that user-defined field:
    • A system administrator must use the Powershell script to apply the changes in the data cubes.
    • Any reports that reference the removed user-defined field will produce an error. You must manually remove the user-defined field from the reports.
  • If you modify the label of a user-defined field in Screen Designer and the field was previously in use and available in Analysis Cubes, a system administrator must use the Powershell script to update the data cubes with a new label name. If you have custom report designs that included the old label name, you must refresh the report data, and then manually re-add the user-defined field with the new label to the report design.
