Import Format: Copy source account into UD1

The Source G/L Account is used for both the HFM Account and HFM UD1 (Custom1). The mapping for FM Accounts and FM UD1 is set-up based on the GL Accounts. UD1 is not included in the GL extract file.
How can I easy copy source Account into UD1 through the import format that can be used for several locations with different import formats?
Example:
GL Account: 1000 -> HFM account: 1000 > HFM UD1: FinS
GL Account: 3000 -> HFM account: ctrl_Logic -> HFM UD1: Stat
Currently I use for UD1 a script like DW.Utilities.fParseString(strRecord,4,2) to do that and it works. Unfortuntely I have at least many different locations with different import formats that would require this script to be adjusted for each import format.
Any idea? Thanks for your help!

Good day
To get this working for different import format layouts you need to make use of the Res.PVarTemp1,,5 FDM variables, you can store information between different fields in the import fields. There are also workarounds if you need to store more than 5 values.
So you need to create two scripts, the TempPut is attached to the account import field and the TempGet is attached to the UD1 import field
Function TempPut(strField, strRecord)
Res.PvarTemp1 = strfield
TempPut = strfield
End Function
Function TempGet(strField, strRecord)
TempGet= Res.PVarTemp1
End Function
Hope this helps

  • Importing or copying Excel list into drop down list

    Can anyone help me with this??  I have a list of 115 departments that I would like to populate the drop down box in an acrobat pdf form and dont have the time to enter them one by one..  Is it possible to either import this list or do a copy and paste??  Please help..  Thanks so much!!

    Here's a link to a very simple PDF that demonstrates how you can populate a combo box (aka drop down) with a list of items that can be pasted into a text field, after copying them from Excel (or some other source): https://acrobat.com/#d=sIJoabh12oYOY19AuTZ9yw
    The idea is that once the drop-down is populated after clicking the "Populate combo box" button, you can copy & paste the field to your form. Be sure to check for duplicates and blank lines.

  • ERPI : Unable to create mappings in Import Format / pull metadata into ERPI.

    Hi All,
    I am strugling to set up metadata rules in ERPI. I am unable to set up Import Formats as i can not see the source segments.
    This is 11.1.2.1 System.
    --registered the source system with EBS system details, and able to initialize successfully.
    --registered Target system ( EPMA planning application) successfully,here i am able to view  Target dimension  Names, Data Table column Names, Target Dimesnion Class in 'Diemnsion details' tab
    -- Could retrieve Source Acconting Entity with it's details
    --Created Import Format with with Accounting Entity , Source system, Target system names.
    But in the Mappings area,( Data Load Mapping Tab) , Source Segment  fileds are not populated with source segments.Instead all the drop down boxes are empty ( few fields are even disabled) . I think, due to this, when i try to create Metadata rules, in Metadata section, the Dimesnion drop down list shows empty.
    Any one has exact idea on where i am missing ?

    Hi Jeff,
    I have clicked 'Refresh Metadata' button which  is there on 'Target Applciation' section.But still Source segments f drop down lists in 'Data Load Mappings' tab  of 'Import Format' section are empty and even few  fileds are disabled.

  • SSIS 2012 is intermittently failing with below "Invalid date format" while importing data from a source table into a Destination table with same exact schema.

    We migrated Packages from SSIS 2008 to 2012. The Package is working fine in all the environments except in one of our environment.
    SSIS 2012 is intermittently failing with below error while importing data from a source table into a Destination table with same exact schema.

    End Error
    But when we reorder the column in "Updated" in Destination table, the package is importing data successfully.
    This looks like bug to me, Any suggestion?

    Hi Mohideen,
    Based on my research, the issue might be related to one of the following factors:
    Memory pressure. Check there is a memory challenge when the issue occurs. In addition, if the package runs in 32-bit runtime on the specific server, use the 64-bit runtime instead.
    A known issue with SQL Native Client. As a workaround, use .NET data provider instead of SNAC.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I share my movies with my wife's iTunes account on the same iMac, without having to actually copy the movie into her library?

    I apologize if this is already in the forum somewhere, I simply could not find this question being asked anywhere.  We have an iMac running Lion with all of the latest updates as well as the latest version of iTunes.  All of the digital movies we've purchased through iTunes, have been purchased through my iTunes account.  However, my wife is the one with the iPad, and syncs it with her own iTunes library and her own Apple ID.  I have turned on Homesharing for my library, and she can see my library from within her iTunes account.  We turned on the feature to automatically copy new movies into her library so that she could sync those movies onto her iPad.  However, I quickly discovered that it is literally storing a second copy of the movie file in her iTunes folder, and therefore eating up precious hard drive space.  Is there a way for her to "check" movies in my homeshare library from within iTunes to sync with her iPad when she connects it, without actually copying those movies into her iTunes folder?  If not, any suggestions on how we can solve this issue?

    What you're describing is the expected behaviour.  I believe though that is also is the easiest way to have all the contents available to both of you at all times.  If you have a spacious hard drive you should probably allow this to happen as anything else will be harder to manage.
    My suggestion would be the following if you want to try something different.
    Store all your music at a location that is accessible by both of you — an example would be to use your Public Folder as the locations where iTunes will go and look for all the media files—.  Your wife does have access to it.
    In the Finder you will need to move the folder name iTunes Music to the location in your Public Folder (see above).  Once that's done, you and your wife will have to go into the iTunes Preferences > Advance Preferences and un-check Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library.  From this point on, you can continue to use iTunes as usual.  You'll need to tell your wife what has been newly downloaded/imported into your iTunes so she can manually go look for those items in that Public Folder iTunes of yours and import them into her iTunes.  She will not duplicate by doing that, but, like I say this is an all-manual work.
    She can do the same, so you have access to contents she imported herself.  One more downside of this is that both usernames have to be active in your iMac.  If yours isn't, she won't be able to access any item (song, book, app) located in your Public Folder's iTunes.
    I'm sure there's a way, if you have an router with external hard drive conectivity, for both of you to be able to access —independently— the iTunes Media at all times but I was just reading at another post that doing so can further complicate things.
    Hope this helps.  Please let me know what you think or decide to do.

  • FDM Fixed-Width Import Format & Multiple Accounts/Periods Issue

    Hi FDM experts,
    I have an issue that I wanted to reach out to you on regarding fixed-width import formats and how to cater for my current scenario for export to Hyperion Planning.
    I am working with a flat file (.txt) I need to import to FDM with the current format;
    A
    B
    C
    D
    E
    F
    G
    Z
    Year
    Channel
    Product
    Jan-MTD-Account 1
    Jan-MTD-Account 2
    Jan-YTD-Account1
    Jan-YTD-Account2
    Dec-YTD-Account2
    2013
    Channel_1
    Product_1
    1000
    2000
    1000
    2000
    10000
    These are all fixed in width so the field lengths will need to be defined in the import format. The requirement for loading to the system is only a speciifc Month YTD value for both Account1 and Account 2.
    If my chosen Month is 2013 Jan, I will only require columns F and G to be loaded. These are the issues I have identified;
    Can a fixed width import format cater for loading to multiple accounts in the same file? Or would I need a separate import format per account?
    Can a fixed width import format cater for loading to a variable Actual Month period? Or do I need 12 import formats/locations per month?
    Your help is much appreciated!
    Many thanks
    Aaron

    Hi Aaron,
    the solution you are looking for needs pivoting your source file.
    Think that FDM, by default, only accepts files with one single column for amount. You have to pivot your file based on your logic and import the pivoted file.
    For example:
    Year     Channel     Product     ... Jan-YTD-Acc1     Jan-YTD-Acc2 ...
    2013     CH1          PR1               1000                    2000
    If your POV is Jan-2013, your data imported will look like:
    Year     Channel     Produc     Account     Amount
    2013     CH1          PR1          ACC1          1000
    2013     CH1          PR1          ACC2          2000
    All this process can be automated by playing with Import Scripts.

  • How to important "sent mail" from another account into Mail?

    I wasn't sure where to put this question because of the way this forum is organized.
    Anyway, here is my problem:
    I woke up thinking I may have forgotten to send an important e-mail yesterday. I thought, "No problem, I won't have to drive all the way to work. I'll just set up Mail on my iMac to use the e-mail account I use at work." It's an SBCGlobal account, so I found most of the information I needed about the mail servers and POP and IMAP and all that stuff that could be termed in a lot more user-friendly language so I don't have a conniption fit trying to figure out what it is I'm doing.
    I finally managed to get it set up to where all of the messages from the inboxes were imported into my Mail app. One big problem: I need to look at the *sent* mail, and if I didn't send the e-mail I thought I needed to, I need to access attachments that I sent to others.
    So how do I important the sent folder from my work e-mail account into Mail?

    I wouldn't doubt it. I work at a small church so we don't have much funding, but we're switching to Gmail. I found an older, unedited print copy of what I was supposed to send and made alterations to that and e-mailed it to the people who needed it. The other thing I was supposed to e-mail isn't essential, I suppose, as it's Sunday's bulletin and everyone will be picking one up tomorrow when they come to church anyway. It's just that I'm fairly new at the position, I love everyone at the church and with whom I work, and I want to do everything right 100% of the time to please them because I'm very Type A. I've been really getting a hang of my job, but it seems there's always one thing that I screw up. I guess I'll get better with experience. And hopefully switching to Gmail, if I do this again, I can just access everything from home.

  • How to download Oracle EBS patch to import source file  into FDQM

    Hello Experts,
    I am not able to find patches for importing source file from Oracle EBS into FDQM.Actually I have HFM,FDQM,ESSBASE,Planning,erp,epm,calculationManager in my virtual machine.I didn't Install Oracle EBS
    Please tell me how to import source file from Oracle EBS like Flatfile from HFM into FDQM and share me what I need to install regarding EBS to Import and register the EBS adapters.It's urgent please share asap.
    Thanks in advance.....

    There are not any EBS Adapters for FDM.
    If you are just importing a source file from EBS, you would need to setup an import format to parse the source file in FDm and then assign the import format to the location that will be used to load the target system and run the import process.
    If you are looking to pull directly from EBS, you would need to use ERP Integrator (ERPi) to connect to oracle EBS and then use the ERPI adpater in FDM to pull the data from ERPI into FDM.
    Can you be specific on what you are looking to do?

  • If I actually import full files into FCP, can I then drop source files into the trash?

    Just to confirm: in Preferences, Import, Files..."copy to library storage location" is selected.
    So I assume I can dispose of source files.
