Metadata build using Outline Load utility in 11.1.2.2

I am looking to automate the process of metadata build using OutlineLoad utility using flat files (csv format).
However the Planning Server is located on UNIX machine. Is there a way the Oracle team can place files on the Planning Server (UNIX box) or can I grab the files from a shared driver ( which I think is not possible but just want to confirm).
Would like to hear from someone who has done this before.
Thanks in advance

Thanks John,
I meant that the flat files will come from relational tables and it needs to be placed on Planning Server.
You mentioned that we can use SFTP for file transfer. Can this file transfer process be automated ? I think the answer is yes but just wanted to confirm.

  • How to use Outline Load Utility with local encoding names of dimensions?

    Hi,
    I'd like to load metadata (dimensions members) to Planning classic application via Outline Load Utility.
    Target dimension name has been set in local encoding (cyrillic).
    After execution my batch file I get error that unable to find specified load dimension "????" in target application.
    Batch file has been created to start OutlineLoad in ANSI encoding:

  • Loading Data Using Outline Load Utility - Error

    Trying to load some data using Outline Load Utility. I followed the Oracle documentation on this and Under the Administration -> Manage Data Load area I defined Accounts as data load dimension, and period as driver dimension. I then added Jan - Feb as driver members. I wanted to load data for Jan. My data header looks like this:
    Accounts,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
    acct1, 768, "2010, Ver1, Actuals, entity1, etc" Plan1
    The command i typed is this:
    C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1>outlineload /A:Plan1 /U:Admin /M /I:C:\MockData2.txt /D:Accounts /L:C:\dataload.log /X:c:\dataload.exc
    I get the following errors:
    [Mon Nov 22 11:03:02 CST 2010] Unrecognized column header value "Jan".

    This is version 11.1.2. What am I doing wrong here? I also find it interesting that the command for data load and metadata load is the same as per oracle docs. I guess Planning knows if we're trying to load data or metadata based on the CSV file header?

    I don't usually bother with loading data using the outline load utility but as a test on 11.1.2 using the planning sample application I gave it a quick go.
    In planning, went to Administration > Data Load Settings > Picked Account as the data load dimension, Period as the driver dimension and selected Jan as a member
    I created a file :-
    Account,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
    TestMember,100,"Local,E05,Actual,NoSegment,Working,FY11",Consol
    And used the following command line from the directory with the planning utilities
    OutlineLoad /A:plansamp /U:admin /M /N /I:F:/temp/dload.csv /D:Account /L:F:/temp/outlineLoad.log /X:F:/temp/outlineLoad.exc
    The log produced :-

    Hi John,
    thanks for reply..

    From the OutlineLogs (Planning Outline load process finished (with no data load as specified (/N)). 1 data record was read, 1 data record was processed, 1 was accepted, 0 were rejected.), it doesn't mean the data successfully loaded, isn't it...??

    i am trying to export the members (metadata) of one of my dimension into csv file by using the outlineload utility of hyperion planning. The version of hyperion is 11.1.2.2

    this command was working fine till yesterday. for the sake of testing i try to export the metadata of another application deployed on the same sever and got the same error for that; so it shows that some thing went wrong with the whole server instead of individual application

    HI,
    Some additional information.
    When you see this error message "Planning Product not found". Please check the logs in
    C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services, check in HyS9EPMServer-sysout.
    You should be able to see the error message as " Received exception while creating connection for pool "EPMSystemRegistry": ORA-28001 the password has expired".
    This is an easy way of identifying the case.

  • Loading Dimensions using Outline Load utility in 11.1.2

    Hi All,
    I tried to use the Outline Load utility for loading dimensions in Planning (11.1.2). The file available is OutlineLoad.cmd.template. I tried running that but doesn't work. So i remaned it to OutlineLoad.cmd and tried but it still doesn't work. Have there been any changes regarding how to use it in 11.1.2?
    Cheers,
    Abhishek

    Hi John and Rahul,
    I navigated to the location mentioned by Rahul and entered "OutlineLoad.cmd.template". it just goes to the next line and another window opens up asking which program you want to use.
    If I enter only "OutlineLoad.cmd" so that it'll return the parameters I need to give, then it says "The syntax of the command is incorrect".
    What command do I need to give? Earlier in 11x, I would just enter "OutlineLoad.cmd" and it would give an error with the expected parameters.

  • Outline Load Utility error using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2

    I am using Outline Load Utility to extract outline from Hyperion Planningin .csv format.
    We have three planning cubes and I am trying to extract a dimension that is only a standard dimension in the third cube. However, I get this error message:
    Error: Unable to obtain dimension information and/or perform a data load: com.hyperion.planning.sql.HspMember cannot be cast to com.hyperion.planning.sql.HspTimePeriod
    When I check Shared Services, the dimension is not part of standard dimensions in Global Artifacts for the app. I can see it under the specific Plan Type as a standard dimension.
    When I try to extract any of the dimensions under the Global Artifacts, the command is successful. Here is the syntax I type for outline load command:
    OutlineLoad /A:HFPlan2 /U:admin  /-M /E:c:/position_export.csv /D:Position /L:c:/outlineLoad.log /X:c:/outlineLoad.exc
    Please advise if I need to add something else to the command or totally use any other tool.
    Thanks!

    Log an SR with Oracle, because that is a varchar field with I think 2000 char limit.
    Is that happening for just that application (do you have other apps, or can you create a sample application)

    Check for the double quotes (the one John mentioned). Also I can see that you are taking the approach of Data Load dimension. Is Data load dimension and driver members defined correctly in Planning?

  • Create, Load, & Assign Attribute using Notepad + Outline Load Utility

    Hi all, I have a requirement that I need to create a new attribute and then assign to many different members. Since there are so many members, I believe the best way to do this is to process this dynamically in notepad or wordpad through Outline Load Utility.
    This is the normal way how I would do it manually in Planning:
    1. Let's say this is my outline in Planning. "1000-X" is the base member where I will be assigning the new attribute to. And many more siblings to "1000-X" will be assigned with the same attribute:
    http://i.imgur.com/U6d1i.jpg
    2. So I changed the data type of "1000-X" to Stored. I highlighted "Entities". I created the new attribute named "Company".
    http://imgur.com/Kg2oe
    3. I have selected base member "1000-X" -> Edit -> then assign the new attribute to "Company". So that's done for a single member. However, keep in mind, I still have many more members to assign the new attribute to. I want to do this much quicker through dynamic way so I'm not sure if I have to go through this process. Maybe this could be alternated by creating it in notepad/wordpad?
    http://i.imgur.com/lg9G6.jpg
    Now, my question is, if I want to just type up everything in notepad/wordpad for assigning the new attribute "Company" to a massive amount of members. How would that structure look?
    I was reading this but I'm still a bit confused about how the structure should be formatted when it gets more complex:
    https://blogs.oracle.com/HyperionPlanning/entry/attributes_loading_and_assigning_attributes
    So basically there are 2 files: Attribute Load file and Entity Metadata Load file
    Now, this is my Attribute Load file. Can someone help me to verify my work?
    http://i.imgur.com/fnT8I.jpg
    =========
    Parent, Office
    Office,Office
    =========
    Next, here is the Entity Metadata Load file I created:
    http://i.imgur.com/wrSt9.jpg
    =============================
    Parent,Entity,Company
    "Total Non-Admin","Total Admin","Department XYZ - A & B & C", "Department X","TOtal Administration","USA","Operation XYZ","Operation X","1000-X"
    =============================
    Apparently, there's something wrong with it so correct me. Thanks for taking time reading this.
    - N

    I think Outline Load Utility needs .CSV files as the source files. See below format that loads fine.
    Parent,<Base Dim Name (Entity)>,<Data Storage>,<Alias: Default>,<Attr Dim 1>,<Attr Dim 2>,<Attr Dim 3>
    All Entites,Entity,Store,,,,
    Entity_1,All Entities,Store,,,,
    Entity_1_1,Entity_1,Store,,<Attr Dim 1_Member_1>,<Attr Dim 2_Member_2>,<None>
    Entity_1_2,Entity_1,Store,,<None>,<Atter Dim 2_Member_2>,<None>
    Note: Attribute assignments must be of the same level in the base dimensions. It may let you assign but will get error during the refresh.
    Thanks,
    KK

    First row in the excell sheet: !Hierarchies=Account
    Second Row: Parent, Child, Data storage......
    Do I need to change this header...?

    Which utility are you trying to load it with? If it is EPMA then you should look at using the EPMA batch client - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epma_batch_user/launch.html

  • Outline Load Utility - associating attributes when loading members

    Hi - simple one this I'm sure.
    I'm trying to use the Outline Load Utility to load members to a simple custom dimension, which already exists. I want to assign an attribute to each member I am adding.
    So I have my data file with the requisite headers including "Attribute Dimension Name" as per the HP admin guide.
    I specify member name, parent, alias, and the attribute member I want to associate with the dimension member I am adding, but the utility does not like the header & returns *"unrecognized column header value "Attribute Dimension Name" "*
    here is the script:
    OutlineLoad -f:h:\HYSL\password.txt /S:demodrive /A:MikeTest /U:demoadmin /M /N
    /I:c:\Bootcamp/OLUtest\Dim3.csv /D:Customers /-C /L:c:\Bootcamp\OLUtest\Dim3Load.log
    /X:c:\Bootcamp\OLUtest\Dim3Ldex.exc
    here is the top of the file:
    Customers,Parent,Alias: Default,Attribute Dimension Name
    Cust 3,Top 10 Customers,,North
    Cust 4,Top 10 Customers,,South
    Cust 5,Top 10 Customers,,East
    Thx

    You have to give the attribute dimension name, so if you have an attribute dimension called "Shop", then your head would be
    Customers,Parent,Alias: Default,Shop
    The attribute dimension already has to exist as well.
