Casabase Cube 4.0.0
Release: 4.0.0
Release type: Major
Released: August 10, 2026
Platform: Snowflake Native App
Casabase Cube 4.0.0 introduces significant enhancements to formulas, time-series analysis, attribute dimensions, query performance, calculation behavior, security, and auditing.
What’s New
Section titled “What’s New”Formula Engine Enhancements
Section titled “Formula Engine Enhancements”Formula validation and processing have been enhanced to identify formula errors earlier and provide clearer error messages.
Formula-heavy cubes also benefit from improved query performance.
Dynamic Time Series
Section titled “Dynamic Time Series”Casabase Cube now supports dynamic cumulative-to-date calculations, including:
- Year-to-Date (YTD)
- Quarter-to-Date (QTD)
- Half-Year-to-Date (HTD)
Dynamic Time Series members calculate automatically as periods change, reducing the need to maintain separate formulas for cumulative period calculations.
Dynamic Time Series supports both flow and balance account behavior.
Attribute Dimensions
Section titled “Attribute Dimensions”Casabase Cube now supports attribute hierarchies for adding secondary classifications to base dimensions.
For example, a Product dimension can be associated with attributes such as:
ColorSizeProduct TypeAttribute members can be used independently or together with members of their associated base dimension, providing additional ways to analyze cube data.
Performance Improvements
Section titled “Performance Improvements”Query Performance
Section titled “Query Performance”This release includes performance improvements for multidimensional queries, particularly for larger cubes and complex analytical workloads.
No changes to existing queries or cube configuration are required to benefit from these improvements.
Calculation Improvements
Section titled “Calculation Improvements”Solve Order
Section titled “Solve Order”Casabase Cube now provides enhanced support for authored solve orders, allowing calculations to respect the intended calculation precedence during multidimensional queries.
This improves compatibility with Oracle Essbase ASO applications and provides more predictable results when multiple calculated members interact.
Security
Section titled “Security”Row-Level Security Modes
Section titled “Row-Level Security Modes”Row-level security now supports two enforcement modes for secured hierarchies:
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| EXCLUDE | Restricted members are excluded from results. Rollups contain values only from members the user is authorized to access. |
| MASK | A rollup returns #NOACCESS when it includes restricted data. |
These modes give administrators greater control over how secured data is represented in multidimensional query results.
Audit & Compliance
Section titled “Audit & Compliance”Casabase Cube 4.0.0 expands auditing across application operations.
Audit coverage includes activities such as:
- Hierarchy changes
- Data loads
- Formula changes
- Security changes
- Configuration changes
Audit records provide administrators with information about application activity, including the user, timestamp, operation, and outcome.
Upgrade Notes
Section titled “Upgrade Notes”Version 4.0.0 is a major release.
Customers upgrading from an earlier version should review formulas, security configuration, and other cube settings after the upgrade to confirm that existing models behave as expected with the new capabilities.
