It provides the ability to create an application with more than four custom dimensions.  You can also create additional custom dimensions for existing HFM applications. The HFM application server tier is also the data source. Therefore, there is no need to push consolidated results to another repository to make the results available for reporting enabling real-time reporting against consolidated results. HFM manages the consolidation entries necessary for organizations that have direct and indirect interests in multiple organizations and complex cross-ownership situations through multiple organization hierarchies and predefined business rules. In addition, the process of determining effective ownership, ultimate percent control, and proper consolidation method is done automatically – no manual intervention is required.
