Workday-Adaptive-Planning practice question 9 of 10

Which element is required to create a modeled sheet?

Full set: 61 questions
Answer options
A: Dimensions
B: Accounts Correct answer
C: Levels
D: Attributes
Correct Answer:
B. Accounts
Explanation

A modeled sheet is designed for detailed calculations (e.g., personnel or capital planning) where the results must integrate with the overall financial plan. To achieve this integration, the calculated results from the modeled sheet's columns must be mapped to General Ledger accounts. This mapping is a required configuration for the sheet to be financially functional and post its data to the central cube. While dimensions, levels, and attributes are part of a modeled sheet, the link to accounts is essential for its core purpose.

Why Incorrect

A. Custom dimensions are optional and are used to add more detail or drivers to the model, but are not required for creation.
C. Levels are a default, foundational dimension in any instance; they are associated with the sheet but are not an element you add during creation.
D. Attributes are optional columns that provide descriptive information and are not a mandatory element for a modeled sheet.
