Financial Periods Intermediate Processes

After importing the input fields and augmenting them with the data from their lookup objects, the Financial Analytics dataflow filters out non-relevant or repeated records.

You can use the dataflow editor in Analytics Studio to visualize the Financial Analytics dataflow and its nodes. Alternatively, you can download the dataflow definition file which is a JSON file representing the dataflow and its logic. For more information on the dataflow editor and the dataflow definition file, see Configure the Dataflow in the Salesforce Help.

Warning:

Modifying the Financial Analytics dataflow might result in the loss of functionality. Contact your system administrator before using the data manager tool in Analytics.
