When choosing attributes for a planning level, should PeriodId always be chosen in the Time Profile?
If it is not, what is the impact?

ah ok, my misunderstanding. if you dont want to use it (I dont see any disadvantages to flag it), please be aware if you have some planning levels WITH and some WITHOUT the field, that this could make cross-level calculations a bit more tricky. Check chapter 7.1 "PERIODID and PERIODID(n) Attributes in Time Profile Levels" in the model config guide for more details. Some attribute transformations may need it.

Not having any time attribute would mean: No time dimension for the key figure.
Can be used for a couple of workarounds.
...But best example would be UoM conversion, where the conversion factors are not time depenent...

Hi,
Selecting PERIOIDID in the planning level is not mandatory. Having said that, if you don't select this attribute in planning level, it will not be possible to use PERIODID in the calculation definition of the key figure defined at the this level.
