In Oracle Planning 2024, cell-level security restricts access to specific data intersections using anchor and nonanchor dimensions. The two true statements are:

A. Anchor dimensions are always required in the cube that is used in the cell-level security definition: Correct. Anchor dimensions (e.g., Entity, Scenario) are mandatory in the security definition to specify the primary scope of access control within the cube.

B. Anchor dimensions are never required in the cube that is used in the cell-level security definition: Incorrect. Anchor dimensions are always required, contradicting this statement.

C. By default, nonanchor dimensions are not required: Correct. Nonanchor dimensions (e.g., Account, Period) are optional by default in cell-level security definitions, allowing flexibility in granularity unless explicitly included.

D. By default, nonanchor dimensions are required. You can change this setting later: Incorrect. Nonanchor dimensions are not required by default, and there’s no setting to make them mandatory—it’s an optional inclusion.

The Oracle documentation specifies that A (anchor necessity) and C (nonanchor optional) align with cell-level security behavior, making them the correct answers.

In Oracle Planning 2024’s Strategic Modeling module, balancing a model with a deficit involves adjusting funding options to ensure cash flow or balance sheet equilibrium. When there’s a deficit (e.g., insufficient cash), you can either increase inflows or decrease outflows. The two valid statements are:

A. You can decrease Preferred to balance the model: Incorrect. "Preferred" typically refers to preferred stock (an equity component), but decreasing it (e.g., reducing preferred equity) would not directly increase available funds to cover a deficit—it might even worsen it by reducing capital.

B. You can increase Debt or Equity to balance the model: Correct. Increasing Debt (e.g., issuing loans) or Equity (e.g., issuing stock) provides additional funds to cover a deficit, a common strategy in Strategic Modeling to balance cash needs.

C. You can decrease Dividends or Assets to balance the model: Correct. Decreasing Dividends reduces cash outflows, retaining more funds, while decreasing Assets (e.g., selling assets) generates cash inflows, both helping to balance the model.

D. You can increase Contra-Equity to balance the model: Incorrect. Contra-Equity (e.g., treasury stock) reduces total equity when increased (e.g., buying back shares), which decreases available funds, not helping to balance a deficit.

The Oracle documentation highlights that increasing Debt/Equity or decreasing Dividends/Assets are standard funding options in Strategic Modeling to address deficits, making B and C the correct statements.

In Oracle Planning 2024, importing data from a file and saving the operation as a job involves specific steps and options. The two true statements about Import Data jobs are:

A. Reference a data file stored locally when creating the Import Data job: Incorrect. Oracle EPM Cloud does not allow referencing files stored locally on a user’s machine for Import Data jobs. Files must be uploaded to the cloud environment (e.g., Inbox) for processing.

B. Select the option to clear data before import: Correct. When configuring an Import Data job, you can choose to clear existing data in the target before importing new data. This option ensures a clean slate for the import, avoiding data duplication or overlap, and is a standard feature in the job setup.

C. Upload your data file to the Inbox before running the Import Data job: Correct. Oracle requires that data files be uploaded to the Inbox (or another cloud storage location like the Outbox) before scheduling or running an Import Data job. The job then references this uploaded file for execution.

D. Include the path for the data file stored on the server: Incorrect. While you specify a file name in the job definition, you do not manually include a server path. The system automatically manages file locations within the cloud environment (e.g., Inbox), and users select files from there, not via explicit server paths.

The documentation confirms that uploading the file to the Inbox and optionally clearing data are key aspects of setting up an Import Data job, making B and C the true statements.
