How to: "Create a Data Series"

This post contains a simple example of creating a data series and also lists out a starter's definition to "data series" in Demantra application. For those who have worked on ODP, Series in Demantra are like "Measures" in ODP. One can create and build a simple to quite complex logic for data values which are stored and are shown in the Series. 

A simple series could be "Budget Data", which simply is created to store financial budget information. On other hand, one can create series like "Projected Inventory" or "Safety Stock", which uses multiple base series for computing the values. 

More details on Series creation and options available, can be easily found in documentation provided by Oracle. Please refer to below documentation for a better understanding of "Series":
