Which data is cleared when using the Clear Data Data Management Step?

The Clear Data Data Management Step is designed specifically to remove data from a specified Data Unit, and, if needed, to focus the clearing process even further by allowing the selection of specific Origin Members. By choosing both a Data Unit and an Origin Member, users can target the data they wish to clear with precision, ensuring that only the relevant portions of data are deleted while preserving the integrity of other information within the cube that may be tied to different Data Units or Origin Members.

This approach provides flexibility in data management by enabling users to perform selective deletions, which is essential in scenarios where only a subset of data needs adjustments or removal, rather than a blanket cleanup of all data. As a result, it allows for greater control over data integrity and assists in maintaining accurate reporting and analysis across fiscal periods.
