Hyperion Planning Data form alias issue

Hi,
I am using Hyperion Planning version 11.1.2.2. I created data form and after member selection is over I selected alias in dimension properties. But when I am opened the data form I see member names but not alias. I want to see alias name in the data form instead of member name. Please give me solution to this?

Hi
In the later releases you now as a user override the data form setting with your own personal user preferences.
Navigate to FIle->User Preferences and then Planning. In there within the display properties you will see an area for Alias settings. There is an option for member name/alias display. Make your selection there.
Thanks
Anthony

  • Not able to see data in Hyperion Planning data forms.

    Hi ,
    I created Hyperion planning EPMA application and loaded data in to it. But I am unable to see data in my data forms? Please give me solution for this?

    Hi,
    Here there are 2 things, once your epma heirarchy is ready did you deploy it against your planning App ? and incase if you haven't deployed your planning application, then old outline would be existing in Essbase and if you load data for old outline it will still take into but when you deploy the database gets restructured and older data gets restructured/removed.
    Before going onto that level first check if your load data to essbase completed successfully. and did you load data for the combinations on dataform ? ? Try manually inputting a number through data form and submit and do a refresh to see if value comes up. ? Check your data form settings , if you have enables suppress missing rows/blocks.
    Thanks

  • Forcing use of Supporting Detail in Hyperion Planning data form

    Hi everyone.
    We're using Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.2 and for one particular data form, I'd like force users to HAVE TO use Supporting Detail on specific cells. I think there might be a way to do this using custom JavaScript functions and modifying the form code but I am wondering if there is a way to do this without code on the form. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    A quick simple example
    function customCellEnterPre(row, col, cell) {
         if(row == 3 && col ==1)
              doSupportingDetail();
         return true;
    Cheers

  • Strange Hyperion Planning data form bug...

    Hi all,
    I'm having a very strange problem on a data form in Hyperion planning. When trying to input a number against a percentage type member, after pressing enter it sometimes displays as the number I put in - 0.00000000000000001 !!
    So, for example, I input 0.47%, hit enter, and it changes to 0.469999999999999999 in the form. Even after I save the form, it continues to display this way. This only seems to happen for specific numbers - i.e. if I input 0.46%, press enter, it displays correctly as 0.46%. But I have this problem with 0.47% and other specific numbers, across all data forms, regardless of the member intersection where they're entered.
    A retrieve in smartview shows it correctly as 0.0047, so I suspect it is not a problem with how the data in being input, but rather how it is being displayed by Planning.
    Has anyone ever come across this or anything similar before? Any solutions that come to mind?
    I'm using EPM 11.1.2.2. Have tested with Mozilla and IE - problem occurs with both.
    Thanks.

    Essbase represents numbers as double.
    Go through this document to understand data precision (even though it is for 6.5, i think it is still valid)

  • Hyperion planning data form in smartview: problem with summary time period

    We are using Planning ver. 11.1.2.2.300.20 and smartview 11.1.2.2.300 (build 070)
    We use common Data Form:
    In columns: Periods (Descendants including YearTotal - with no checkbox on start expanded)
    In Rows :accounts
    In some of our users computers,
    When they open Data Form in Excel (with Smart View) - its appears very strange:
    Summary Accounts are displayed as level 0 account in the summary Period columns (i.e. not in grey) and permit entering data.
    In addition when Entering data in summary time period (i.e. Year or Quarter),
    strangely,  the data doesn't  spread to the descendants months (level 0) .
    This phenomenon occurs just in few of the computers.
    Please help, how can we overcome this problem?
    Thanks and Regards
    Tami Kedem

    Hi Celvin,
    Thanks for your rapid response!
    All computers have the same version of planning and smartview.
    The computers where the Periods spreading and aggregation properties in Data form are not working,
    do work wonderfully when opening the Data forms in the web.
    I've tried everything, (remove suppressing, validations etc.):
    In all kind of data forms the spreading and aggregation properties on summary time periods are not working in smartview -
    and summary accounts on rows are not displayed in grey and permit entering data.
    We remove and reinstall MS-Office (2007) from the problematic computers, but it didn't help.
    Do you know if there is any kind of settings or softwares that might cause this phenomenon
    i.e. interrupts the smartview translation of the web Data Forms.
    Thank and best regards,

  • Hyperion Planning Data forms - conditionally/dynamically populate rows

    I am building a budgeting data form which I am trying to invoke some dynamic capabilities so that it is either not one giant for, or one that users have to load to multiple pages through a drop-down, which they will essentially see as too cumbersome and not accept it as a good solution.
    The basic relationship is one entity owns multiple cost centers. I am trying to find way that a user can select their entity in the header row drop-down, and from that have the data form only pull in their relevant cost centers into the rows, then repeat the set of accounts we have defined for each group.
    Essentially i want it to provide something such as below (the spacing is not being recognized, but the accounts should all be justified into a row). The set of entities are pre-defined. No problem. As are the set of accounts. The issue is getting it to vary which cost centers are on the page to load to. There are thousands of cost center in the system, so again I can't list them all. Also there are hundreds of entities so I can't have a different form for each. Way too much maintenance. I have a few ideas on how to link the relationship between the entity and cost centers. Probably an attribute on each cost center to tell it which entity owns it. Or worst case an alternate rollup in the Cost center dimension, grouping them together under a CC-Entity parent. Problem again is how do I use this in the form? Open to any suggestions at all. Thanks
    Mark
    Sample
    Entity (user selected)
    Cost Center 1 Account 1
    Account 2
    Account 3
    Cost Center 2 Account 1
    Account 2
    Account 3
    Cost Center 3 Account 1
    Account 2
    Account 3

    If you have data tied for the cost centers of entities 'supression' options should only bring the related cost centers.
    You can put all entities and accounts in a single form , member level access will only let the users see what they have access to...
    There may be other solutions from experts here..
    Thanks

  • Arrange members in hierarchical order in planning data form

    I am trying to hierarchically arrange the dimension members in row of a data form.
    Assume the following hierarchy
    Parent1
    --- Child 11
    --- Child 12
    Parent2
    --- Child 21
    --- Child 22
    When I place this dimension in the row of a Hyperion planning data form and select "honor hierarchy", the members are arranged in reverse order.
    --- Child 11
    --- Child 12
    Parent1
    --- Child 21
    --- Child 22
    Parent2
    How do i arrange them such that the parent appears above the child ?

    We had a similar issue with & in smarlist and patch .502 fixed it. However i put in your memeber "Cost per Minor Suite Turn (< 5K)" in the .502 environment and i saw the same issue: where "Cost per Minor Suite Turn (< 5K)" cuts off to Cost per Minor Suite Turn (
    and i tried just "Cost per Minor Suite Turn < 5K" and it provided this Cost per Minor Suite Turn.
    We also have a 11.1.2.4 environment i tried it in there and the same issue exsits.  And i guess the only work around is spelling it out because that is what they told us regarding the & in smarlists.

  • Planning Data Form Lock

    Hi,
    I am wondering whether the Excel Lock & Send mechanism can be implemented in Hyperion Planning data form. I am using 9.3.1 of Hyperion Planning. This means that when one user is working (writing) on the data form with the specific page members, the other users can only read the data form (or get some sort of notification) for the same combination only.
    Of course, one possible solution is to use the custom javascript to do so (I am not so sure how difficult this can be,either). Anyone got any experience on that?
    Thank

    Like you said this would require custom java script. Additionally you would need a central location to store user states to be able to flip the read switch.
    Unless you are very good at javascript or someone provides you a custom script this is a non-trival exercise.
    Likely you would use the xmlphttprequest function, setup a custom web service and have it interact with a database to store user state.
    Implenting process, communication, and appropriate security is the manner to avoid people over-writing other values.
    Good Luck,

  • How to show two different aliases in planning data form

    I have two alias members in the Alias dimension-Default,alias-1.
    Alias is associated with all the dimensions.
    For ENTITY dimension i have values for both the aliases.
    Now my requirement is to show Default alias member in one planning data form and alias-1 member in another data form.
    How can this be achieved ?

    If this is a consistant requirement, you could create another alias table and assign the aliases as a concatenation of the two aliases you need to see at the same time.
    IOW, export both tables, and in excel or a text editor, concatenate the two existing aliases for each member into one string, then import that list into yet another alias table.

  • Selecting a member range on Planning Data Forms?

    Hi all,
    Can somebody confirm it is not possible to select a range as a member on a Planning Data form?
    Here is my situation:
    Description: On a planning form we would like to populate forecast months. Currently planners can input data to six months: Jul-Dec. In October, we will change it to Oct:Dec.
    Issue: For each data form, we need to manually add/remove members.
    Failed attempt: Created a SubVar and assigned the following range: &CurFstMo:Dec. Of course it failed :)
    Work around: I think the easiest solution is to display 12 monts and change the start and end date for Forecast scenario. I need to check with the planners if they'd be ok with displaying all 12 months other than just the input months.
    Can you think of another solution?
    Thanks,
    Mehmet

    The short answer is no.
    You could make separate forms per entity which could be cumbersome to manager or pershaps do something with a suppress missing form by filling in say BegBalance with a value and suppressing the intersections that were not valid.

  • How to add a mm-dd-yyyy date field type in a Planning Data Form

    Hi John,
    pls, I have one question regarding the possibility of adding a date field type for example 03-03-2009 in a cell of Planning Data Form application.
    for example, I created:
    - 2 members in Period dimension: StartProject and EndProject and I need to enter and track date for these fields;
    - one Account member called Project;
    - and a simple form with these collumns and row;
    Trying different settings for my members - seems that I cannot input date in the cell and rcvd errror: "you have entered invalid value".
    Pls, can you confirm me if it's possible to enter date type in a form?
    If yes, what is the specific setup for the Account and Period properties: Data storage, Time Balance, Data type, Account type etc
    many thanks,
    Robert

  • How can I fix the 1st column width (member) in Planning data forms

    Hi all,
    does anybody know a trick, how I can fix the first column width in planning data forms? I need a composite data form (Planning 9.3.1) and the problem is, that in the first form the member names are longer. So Planning sizes the column as it is needed to display the full member name. The member names of the second data form are shorter, so the data entry cells are not exactly among each other for both data forms and that looks terrible....
    Thanks and kind regards
    André

    There are 3 ways of setting the width in webforms:-
    1. There is a global setting for input box length which has a syntax of FormInputBoxLength=30.
    2. When you specify the format for each of the dimensions you can choose to select the width of either a column heading or a row heading. In the following example, each time you specified the dimension ‘Account’ a format would be applied to its header. The syntax for this would be something like… HeaderOptionAccount=Length:50,Style:font-size: 12pt;font-family: calibri
    3. Each column can have its own width specified. The syntax for this can be setting in each of the column’s code. For example C6=Blank,Style:Background-color:rgb(203,218,231);width:3 would just show a thick vertical line as the width is so small.
    You can not set widths in data grids through the normal settings. You can manually change the widths and save the grid though. This can be done in the xml directly. For example… <HDRWIDTH idx=”0″ width=”50″/>.
    Then load the amended xml file back into the system.
