Summary

This view contains the all of the transactions posted below UCSD General Ledger at the interface level.

  • This view contains only transactions that have posted.  This does not include pre-posted, unposted, not approved transactions, not posted, and/or un-processed costs.

(info) In order to see the General Ledger data within Oracle UI you'll need access to General Accounting Dashboard > Inquiry and Analysis Balances

Due to the number of transactions in this view, reports built against this view will run longer that other FINAH views.

When possible, use FINAH-UCSDGeneralLedger-View or FINAH-UCSDGeneralLedgerBalances-View for best performance. 

Data Loads

Data is loaded nightly from oracle.  To see when the data completed being loaded by UCSD into FINAH see this report: Tableau > Public > AH Data Load Status Report

Granularity

Granularity is the scale or level of detail present in a set of data.  It identifies where levels of uniqueness exists in the data.  The data lives in the view at the lowest level, but each BI tool totals the levels differently.

Please note:  The Level of Detail (LOD) calculations listed here for Tableau developers are a baseline and do not necessary include all of the LOD equations needed for your report.


LevelKey (uniqueness / group by)Measure
1CCOA Levels

There are multiple groups of fields that live at a higher grain than the Transaction Line.  These groups are not part of a hierarchy and should be considered separately.

If you use the measures from this group you will see them repeat with combined with lower grain data.

Example:

Tableau report developers:  {FIXED[Entity Code]: MIN([Entity Is Current Count])}

Be sure to use the matching fields.

{FIXED[% Code]: MIN([% Is Current Count])}


All measures in the Flag Measures folder
2Transaction Line

Transaction Header Code + Transaction Line Code

Tableau report developers: {FIXED[Transaction Header Code], [Transaction Line Code]: MIN([Transaction...])}

All measures starting with Transaction%
3SLA Line

SLA Event ID + SLA Event Header ID + SLA Event Line Number

Lowest level, no LOD needed.

All measures starting with SLA%
