Global Drivers

Global Drivers in OneStream's Line Item Modeling solution are key variables or factors that can be used in formulas. These drivers can be financial indicators that are common concepts across organizations, for example, merit, bonus, tax limits and percentages, benefit amounts, and vacation days. Global Drivers can be used when you have a static value that can be used across all time or dimensions (one driver with one value).

By using Global Drivers, organizations can align their planning processes, improve accuracy, and enhance the comparability of results across different units or departments. It is a powerful tool for strategic planning, budgeting, and forecasting, helping decision-makers understand the impact of various factors on the company's performance.

IMPORTANT: Any attribute named in the solution, such as Register Field Names, Accounts, Global Drivers, Cube Drivers, Lookup Drivers and Formula Names, must be unique from each other.
