Use the Modeling workbench to create and maintain your model (beta)

IBM Planning Analytics 2.0.64 introduces the modeling workbench as a beta feature. The modeling workbench is a dedicated modeling space optimized for all modeling activities.

To use the modeling workbench during the beta period, open the modeling perspective in your Planning Analytics Workspace environment. For example, https://<my_planning_analytics_url>/?perspective=modeling. Only users with the modeler or administrator role can create or edit workbenches.

As you can see, the workbench efficiently presents all your modeling assets in a tabbed and sectioned layout.

You can use the modeling workbench to:
  • Create, edit, and delete any of these objects: dimensions, hierarchies, sets, processes, chores, and rules
  • Run processes and chores
  • Create and save cube views
  • Edit settings for cubes, dimensions, processes, and chores
  • Create drill processes, import data, import dimensions, reload/unload cubes
  • Reorder dimensions
  • Refresh security, set cell security
