How do I change the From date in time series to an earlier year?

Jonathan Cook

The current time series of my data model starts 2017. If I want to change to start in 2011, will I need to extract and reload the time related cubes?

Philipp Schumacher

Hi Jonathan,

That is correct. The easiest way will be to use the procedure step "Extract all Cubes", modify the begin date of your time range and then "Reload all cubes".

Of course, depending on the size of your DB, this step can take quite some time and you should also check if there is enough disk space for all the flat files at the specified extract destination.

Let me know if you need further information

Kind regards

Philipp

Hey Jonathan,
Following on from Philipp's accurate answer above, here is some more reading material you may find of use. Section 3.1.1 has detailed steps for reference.

Hope this helps.
