FDM Application Creation

Hi
Is it necesseory to Give User Name OF FDM Schema (Database Tab) in Capital Letter when we are creating New Application in FDM.
Why i am ASking this Question
When we are trying to import Data into FDM using ERPi i am getting Table or View Does Not Exist Error . IF we give FDM Schema User Name Small Letters it creating a Queru with Small Letter with in Double Quotes like "fdmdev". <Table Name>. This is My Assumption.
This is Error because of Import Data from ERPi Tables to FDM Tables.
Please give your Valuable Suggetion to Resolve this.
Thanks in Advance
Nagarjuna Reddy

The Case that was used to create the user ID by the Oracle DBA should be used, it must match in order for the connection to the DB at import for ERPi to run successfully.

Schema already exit eroor during FDM application creation

Hi,
I have done the installation and configurqation of FDM, when i am trying to create new application it is throwing an error SCEMA ALREADY EXIT.
Can some one clarify me, when every we go for new application it should have new scema?, because i used this scema to create new application, it went wrong due to invalid path, but it created some objects in the scema.
thanks,
msr

As SH said, you do need a separate schema (Oracle) or database (SQL server) for each application.
Usually when application creation fails the main thing that happens is FDM creates the application folder structure which you specified the location for in the first tab -- that named application structure e.g. MYFDMAPP must be removed from that file share before you can re-create the application if your DB credentials were incorrect.

Unable to connect to Database Error in FDM application creation

Hi All,
I have Installed Financial Data Quality Management 11.1.2.2 in my machine. Database [Oracle 11g R2 64 bit] and client[Oracle client 32 bit] also installed in the same machine.
We selected the following components while installing Oracle client[Custom installation],
Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle Data Provider for .NET
Oracle Providers for ASP.NET
Oracle Provider for OLEDB
Complete the install.
When I tried to create FDM application it throws me the following error. Unable to connect to Database. Please check the database information and verify the database is accessible.
Kindly guide me to overcome this issue.
Thanks and Regards
Sai

Hi Sai,
first of all, you have posted FDM issue in Essbase forum. Thats the reason you didn't get replies to this issue.
To resolve this, we need to Oracle Client 32 bit first then Oracle Client 64 bit.
Install Oracle Clients completly. (As per documentation, we need to install Clients completly. Means choose Administrator, not instant client and custom)
After installing also if get same error, Goto Environment variables, Edit PATH variable and copy the 32 bit Client path to the first in the PATH variable.
Then reboot the Server and try again to create FDM application.
Thanks,
mady

Re-importing FDM application from XML not removing deleted objects/records

I migrated our FDM application from one environment to the next environment, by exporting the FDM application from the source environment to an XML file and subsequently importing the FDM application XML file in the target environment. This appeared to work fine.
After some updates were then applied to the source environment, I re-exported the FDM application to an XML file, and re-imported this in the target environment.
However, I have noticed that:
- Import Scripts that were deleted in the source application still remain in the target application.
- Mappings that were deleted in the source application still remain in the target application.
- Extra mappings that were added in the source application have been added to the target application.
So we now have duplicate mappings in several tables and scripts that should have been deleted in the target environment!
It appears that the "Import" process is more of an update, rather than a drop and replace. There is no "replace" option on the import process. Can anyone please advise how one should correctly migrate an FDM application between environments? At present, it seems to me that the whole application will need to be completely dropped/deleted (including the SQL database/Oracle schema) and re-imported all over again from scratch.
Surely there must be a better method?!!

Here is Oracle's response for anyone else who requires further information on this:
"Hello,
The Import of the .xml files in terms of application creation is meant as a 'once only' event and a result is not meant as a method of post-create administration of the application. Any further imports will just add metadata to the application not replace or merge. If you wish to migrate an application via this method then you will need to get the source application into the state required for the migration then migrate this as a whole. Please note that this will only migrate the metadata of the application.
The other method of migration as you have mentioned in the SR description, is via the database which will migrate the entire application with data.
Please see KB article 806173.1 which gives instructions on the two methods, both of which are the only recommended methods. Please review the article to suit your requirements.
Thanks"

Can I create two different FDM applications in a single database?

Hi,
Atpresent we are using separate database (MSSQL Server 2008) for each FDM applications, now our databases have increased in numbers due to increase in number of applications.
Now we are searching for any possibility to use a single database for more than one different FDM applications inorder to reduce the new database creation numbers in future.
Any suggestions would be greatly helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Abdulla Javeed Hassan

Yes. Reduce the number of FDM applications you are creating. You can have multiple target system adapters in a single FDM application (i.e. a single database only required). There is no need to create a new application for each target system.

Unable to create FDM application

Hi Gurus,
While creating FDM application receiving error as "Database User id and password is required for login".
There is firewall between FDM server and SQL server and the SQL port number is different instead of 1433. Also we have SQL instance.
I have configured SS, FR and workspace successfully, but unable to create FDM app.
All products are in the same server.
Provided the SQL db information as:
db servername\sql instance name
database name
db username and password.
Receiving the above error message on both workbench and web.
Please provide some solution for this issue, its urgent.
Regards,
Kamal

If you use a UDL file on the FDM application server with the same information provided in the application creation screen can you successfully connect to the SQL Server database?
If it is running on another port other than 1433 you will need to specify the port in the servername field:
servername\instance,port

Error when creating a FDM application on SQL Server 2005

Hi,
we are getting this error when creating a FDM application on SQL Server 2005
Error: EPMCSS-07003: Failed to validate identity. Invalid identity . Check identity.[SET_ROLES_LIST]
We are using Windows System Integration although we have also tested with sa user.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Based on the error message it appears to be having a Shared Services issue. Verify that the "ADMIN" account is being used for the HSS connection and that you are using "ADMIN" to create the application and see if the same error is returned.

Where is the highS2.xml located on the disk? If you add it to your project you should set its Build Action to Content and its Copy To Output Directory to Always in Visual Studio:

Multiple import formats in one FDM application....?

I wanted to know in my situation where there are 15 EBS Set of Books. whether it is possible to use only 1 FDM application to import all these data into my HFM application.
My ERPi application is like this :
1 source application that is EBS.
1 target application that is HFM.
15 EBS Set of books, for which i think i have to create 15 import formats in ERPi for each set of books. this also implies to the locations.
then I have to do the common period mapping and category mapping.
in the Data load Setup: I have to select each location and do the member mapping. create a data load rule for each location.
FDM Application:
i already have an FDM application which i am using to import data from EBS to HFM using ERPi, till now i have only used 1 set of books just to verify that everything is working fine. now as everything is working fine with the application, I want to add additional import formats in the existing FDM application to answer the import formats and locations created in the ERPi application.
Is it possible to do like this, if so then i need your assistance in achieving this task.
please put your comments in this regards.
Thanks,
Shantan Kommera

You can do this by specifiying the appropriate data load rule to be used by ERPi within Integration Option 1 in the location. This will kick off the data load rule you specify in ERPi that should be tied to the corresponding set of books in EBS.

Enable data protection in the FDM application

Hi All,
I just added a custom member in HFM and I would like to enable data protection in the FDM application for the particular custom member. Can anyone tell me how to enable the data protection in the FDM application.
Regards,
Sanjeev

Hi,
There are options needed to be set for data protection in FDM.
In Integration settings->Enable data protection, Protection value, Protection operator.
Set these values and u can use data protection facility.
You can also go through the forums for more understanding:
1. Re: Data Protection Switch - FDM
2. Data Protection
Hope it helps!

FDM Application directory/Folder structure Backup

Hi
Next week we are planning to migrate the FDM Application from environment to other.
My question is do we need stop the application services to take the Backup of the FDM Application directory?
Ideally i would prefer to stop the services and take the folder backup however not sure if we would have the downtime from the business to do the same.
Please let me know the drawbacks if i take the backup of the application directory without stopping the application services.
Thanks in advance
Regards
krishnatilak

No you do not need to stop any services to take a copy of the application directory

But my VC server version : 70 1.6.01.I don have search option in the VC.how to search the RFC?Is there any documents for the application creation using VC 7?
Regards,

Hi Naga,
you need to use the find data service. Maybe you should work through the example given in help.sap.com:

Pointing single FDM application to multiple Essbase databases

Is it possible to point a single FDM application to multiple Essbase applications and databases? I have heard it is possible to (re-)add the Essbase adapter multiple times to the same FDM application, to then point to different Essbase applications databases.
Does this work successfully and are there any potential problems with having duplicate adapters registered?

To add weight to our proposal of splitting the FDM applications, is there any documentation/KB/bugs/forum posts on the issues with duplicated adapters and using drill back? Is there definitely an issue with FDM here? It is not something I have yet experienced and it sounds more of a possibility than a definite issue? If you can, please let me know if there are any further references you can provide on this so I can inform the client on the best route forward. Many thanks in advance.
