Smart View to Essbase (GL). How to set the Ancestor position to be on Top when zooming in?

Hi everyone,

We're using Smart View to connect to our ERP GL, which in turn connects to Essbase. When zooming into parent members in Smart View, we'd like the ancestor position to be displayed at the top instead of the bottom (which is the current behavior).

We understand this setting can be configured through Smart View options for Ad Hoc Grids. However, since we're connecting directly to Essbase, we found the following information in the Oracle documentation for Smart View:

Note: Essbase only: The ancestor position is set in the application by your Essbase administrator. By default, the ancestor position is set to Bottom. To set the ancestor position to Top, an administrator must set the application configuration setting, SSANCESTORONTOP, to True.

Howdy, Stranger!
