Apptio Costing:::Automatic granularity

A common challenge in TBM Studio configuration is finding and eliminating "various" throughout the model.  This represents where granularity is lost through grouping down data, and it will impact allocations and reporting.  This idea is to implement an ability in Apptio to automatically set granularity for each object.  The expectation is that the platform would inspect the granularity needed by allocations and by reporting and can automatically add fields to a grouping step and the object identifier (or some effectively similar configuration mechanism) without admin intervention.  It should also be configured to notify and warn if an allocation or a report will result in a non-performant model, giving the administrator recommended next steps to investigate further.
