I am transitioning from a background in BW-IP to BPC 10.1 Unified/Embedded.
I would like to understand what preparatory steps need to be taken in BW concerning the infoprovider (transactional cube; aggregation level; query; etc).
Specifically, the demos show the added attributes in the "controlling" dimension: ie: OWNER / TEAM / REVIEWER. Are these to be added manually? How are they populated? Must there be a hierarchy?
The "audit" dimension is added automatically after ticking the setting for the infocube. Must anything else be done to this dimension or is it populated automatically?
In setting the "work status" it is necessary to reference the "owner dimension" "owner property" etc. How are these dimensions identified? In 10.1 unified it seems that this must be set in BW. How? Is this something automatic? What are the prerequisites for this dimension? Hierarchy?
Are there any other things to be set in BW? On the infoprovider? On the aggregation level? Planning filters and Functions?
I thank you in advance for all answers. I have spent much time trying to locate and/or infer the answers. The lack of documentation is making this transition more challenging and frustrating than it should be.

PS. I have posted this also in the EPM area. I am still not sure where BPC 10.1 discussions belong
