Security group provisining only to show Business rules to the users.

Hi,
Could anybody tell what setting in the Group Provisioning required so that users in that group only see business rules in planning application and not calculation script on the servers. We work on 9.2 env. ?
Thanks,

Yes group is provisioned as planner and have essbase server access... and user in this groups are able to see both business rules and calc script in planning application... but we want to show them only business rules and not calc scripts...

  • VBScript does not retrieve Member details if a Distribution/Security Group have only one Member

    Hi,
    VBScript does not retrieve Member details if a Distribution/Security Group have only one Member. I have tried several Scripts even changed the coding in it, also tried few External Script by created by other Scriptor's. Any suggestion on why this is happening. 

    Perfect... Thank you. I reworked on the Script and it is showing up. One more info required. I know my script is having another bug. Can you help me getting the member list of a User Group. When i pull it retrieves all the Group info for a user
    but no "Domain Users" Group.
    Sorry for the lame humor but it was getting late.
    As for you new request.  I do not understand what you are asking. Can you post your script and any error messages you are getting.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Business Rule err The following value is not valid for the run time prompt.

    Hyperion Planning v 9.3.3
    I have created a new BR with 2 local variables (created at the time of the BR), Variables are set as run time prompts. They are created as "Member" (not Members). The BR basically does a calc dim on dense and Agg on Sparce other than the prompt on Entity and Version dimensions. The entity variable has a limit on level 0 of the dimension. The Version variable limits to the input (Submit and Sandboxes)
    The BR is associated in Planning with an input web form. Entity and Version are in the page. Is set to Run on Save and Use members on form.
    If the run time prompts Hide boxes are checked, an empty Prompt pops up with only a Submit button. Click the button and an error comes up: "The following value is not valid for the run time prompt it was entered for:. But it does not indicate what member - just ends in the :.
    The BR will run sucessfully only if the Run-time prompt is not hidden - "Hide" in the BR is unchecked. So the syntax and logic of the BR is correct and security should not be an issue.
    The client wants no prompt. In production we have similar situations in which the BR works with the Web Forms without a prompt.
    What am I doing wrong - I have tried restarting the Planning service and the EAS service.

    My preferred method of doing this is:
    1. In business rule, do not hide the run-time prompts. This makes it easy to validate the business rule as you are building it. I only use Global Variables.
    2. On the form, have business rule set to run on save, use members on data form and hide prompt.
    Check that in the business rule, for the variables (Run-Time prompts), that they are all in use. If not, delete them from the business rule. Are all your variables global? Are some local and some global? This could be the issue.

  • Unable to provision Business Rules access for users

    Hi all,
    Our analytic server is properly configured in Shared Services : we can correctly create users, provision Essbase access for those users, change password, etc...
    An application business rules is visible in the left pane of shared services, but we are not able to provision Business rules access for users.
    When we try to provision access for a user, we have only access to the Analytic properties.
    What's going wrong ?

    It sounds like the user you login to HSS with hasn't been assigned with "Provisioning Mgr" rights to business rules.
    Get the HSS admin user to grant you these rights and you should then be able to provision users to use Business RUles.

  • Hr_maintain_masterdata showing an infotype that the user does not have auth

    subject: hr_maintain_masterdata showing an infotype that the user does not have authorisation for
    Hi all,
    I've a user account that's meant to perform staffing, based on the actual HR role.  The system is also set up with an infogroup that contains infotypes 0000, 0001, 0006, 0185, XYZ and other infotypes; XYZ representing an actual infotype.  The HR role is not supposed to have this infotype XYZ.
    When PA40 is used, infotype XYZ will be skipped, as the user account do not have authorisation for it.  I could then proceed to create the record.
    When the fm: hr_maintain_masterdata is used, I was prompted that I do not have authorisation for infotype XYZ.
    I have setup my fm with the mininum amount of values, as indicated below.
    I did not populate a table for "proposed_values" so the infotypes called were due to the actions of the infogroup.
    fm: hr_maintain_masterdata
    pernr = 01234567
    massn = 01          (new staff)
    actio = INS          (insert record)
    tclas = A          (master record)
    begda = 01.09.2010
    endda = 31.12.9999
    werks = myCompanyPlant
    dialog_mode = 2     (online)
    luw_mode = 1          (commit, if no errors encountered)
    no_existance_check = X
    Q. Is there any way to let the function module call the infotypes, with authorisation checks, as what PA40 is doing?
    Your guidance would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    James Wong

    A behaviour that has been observed was that, after infotype 0185 was saved, the function module throws me back to infotype 0000, citing, "No authorization to maintain XYZ exists".  Data that I had populated to the screen, either via the FM or by manual input were cleared.  If I skip the next 4 screens, I'll arrive at the Infotype after XYZ, with the data populated.  Subsequent infotypes also have their data filled in.
    Once I complete the sequence, the personnel record will be created.  Upon examination, the frist 4 screens that were skipped in the 2nd pass contains data that were entered in the 1st pass.
    My question, as posted in the original post, is why infotype XYZ is triggered by the function module, as the staffing account does not hae access for it.  If I repeat the process using PA40, the infotype is skipped accordingly.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    James Wong,

  • AD Security Group name change not showing in Sharepoint 2010

    Hi!
    We have a Sharepoint 2010 Standard enviroment and are heading for a role-based identity-managment in our company. That's why we find it better to use AD Groups instead of Sharepoint Groups.
    So we have over 1000 AD Security Groups groups that have been added to our Sharepoint Sites and our goal is to control every permission in Sharepoint from AD.
    I have done all this with the combination of Excel and Powershell and it have worked great.
    The problem i see in the long run is the name change of AD Security Groups. Sharepoint 2010 isn't showing the new name of the group.
    Does anyone know of any workaround that can solve this problem. It's a bit of a disappointment that Microsoft haven't fixed this. The only information i think they should store in Sharepoint is the SID of the groups.
    I was thinking of designing a powershell script that runs every night and updates the display name of the groups that do not match the AD display name.
    Is there any other way?

    As far as I know, and I'm not sure where to go from here without testing on my own...and I'm not sure when I'll be able to do that.  Perhaps a configuration issue.
    Have you tried removing the incorrectly named group and adding in the correctly named one?

  • How to group datasrc member in CarryForward Business Rule

    Hi Experts,
    I want to group few datasrc members to be used as source datasrc in CarryForward Business Rule. Which property of Datasrc Dimension will show the grouping in CarryForward rules ?
    For your information - i have DIMLIST, DIMLIST1, COPYOPENING, DATASRC_TYPE, OPENING_DATASRC with some values but none of these properties getting enabled in CARRYFORWARD Business Rule.
    Kindly help
    Regards,
    Samvir

    Hi,
    You need to define this in the Group property of the Datasource dimension.
    The GROUP :It is used to gather datasrc in six groups:  example:
    INPUT          Input datasrc
    STA          Standardization datasrc
    ELI          Eliminations datasrc
    C          Consolidation datasrc
    ICMATCH     Intercompany matching datsrc
    IC          Intercompany datasrc
    I think,  for carry forward , you need not assign this in the group above. in the business rules of carryforward, need assign like this.
    Source Account   Source Flow    Destination Account   Destination Flow Datasource Type
    BSDIM                     999                                                       100                     ALL

  • EAS does not show Business Rules node

    I'm in the process of validating an 11.1.2 Planning installation. This is the development environment, so one Essbase server, one everything else server.
    One of the issues I've run across is that my client install of EAS does not have a Business Rules node (I am staying away from Calculation Manager because of multiple horror stories from multiple sources I have heard about it).
    However, it does show up in the launched-from-the-web version.
    The web launched release numbers are:
    EAS 11.1.2.0.00.462
    APS 11.1.2.0.0.615
    HBR 11.1.2.0.0.722
    And now this gets really weird. The client launched release numbers are:
    EAS 11.1.1.2.0.00.462
    APS 11.1..2.0.0.615
    HBR *4.1.1*
    Somehow my clean install has magically gotten the last release of Planning 4's Business Rules?
    It sure sounds like something didn't get installed correctly. I was able to find this thread regarding the same problem:
    How to add HBR plugin in EAS console
    In that thread, RahulS wrote:

    There you go I was on the right track, who needs oracle support :)^^^Isn't this board a sort of unofficial Oracle support? I have to admit that after my first fruitless search of the KB on support.oracle.com, I purposely came here first before I had the client log a SR.
    That's wrong, of course, or at least a little illogical, given that the customer pays for support and after all, answering these kinds of questions is sort of their primary job. Putting on my ODTUG hat, KScope 2011 is going to have a support symposium that is going to focus on process (like why is Cameron so brain-dead that he can't type 'EAS and node' into the KB search field which pops up the obvious answer?) so that people don't do a time waster like I just did. It's going to have some pretty big names and I hope you all can come.
    I'm going to forward this thread to my contact at Oracle support as evidence that even "intelligent" people could use some help with how to do searches, no matter how elementary that may be.

  • Business rules inside the dabase - how to avoid

    Dears,
    I have a friend who is working on our project and he is an
    Oracle DBA. The problem is that he's been very stubborn when it
    comes to the app's business rules. He insists that all of the
    business rules should be inside the database, represented by
    triggers, stored procedures and the likes.
    Even the applications's parameters should go into the database,
    according to him. "Property files ? Hell no !"
    I tried to convince him of the importance of OO design principles,
    abstraction, blah blah blah but he won't listen.
    Does any of you guys know of a link or an article available on
    the web that addresses this discussion ?
    I wanted to persuade him, instead of forcing him to accept our
    design decisions.
    I mean, I know we all have to be reasonable but I wanted to
    have something written by some of the OO gurus, it would be
    easier...
    Thanks a lot

    Finding a case study for what you speak will not be easy, and I suspect will do little to sway the opinion of your DBA. If you do find something, please post it to the list here.
    Here are the fundamental problems with his approach (feel free to use these arguments against him):
    1) Business logic is hidden / spread across multiple tiers. This is a biggie. If you are using triggers, etc you have business logic that is spread across both the actual code level and across the DB. For a developer that is going to implement a change you have effectively doubled the cost of that change. Plus your development team has to be well versed in both Java coding and in SQL / DB specific coding as well - if your DBA is doing proprietary things in Oracle... well, you get the picture.
    2) Changes to DB. If you ever change DB solutions, or even want to switch to a new set of tables, you have to replicate all of that work. There is no real reason for doing that with todays technology - you are just creating more work and making your system(s) less flexible to change and more challenging to migrate.
    3) Object / DB disconnect. When you get into the guts of things, there is a wide gap between what is considered best practices for DB design and what is considered best practices for OO design. This culminates in a lot of work going into how to map objects to DB's and vice versa. The differences between these paradigms can cause huge problems when you are implementing business logic in both tiers. Here is an example:
    Let's say that you have a universal rule that states that you must have a full 9 digit zip code for all addresses. In the object world this type of rule implementation is simple - you simply enforce this rule on your Address object and use it everywhere you need an address. But in the DB world it is a common practice to embed this type of data within other tables. For instance, you have a customer table with address fields. Same thing for employees, vendors, etc.
    Now in order to enforce that 9 digit rule you have to create a stored procedure (or a constraint, whatever) on each of the tables that contains address data. Add a new table with address data? Re-create the rule enforcement.
    4) People - As you had mentioned (or maybe someone else did), most companies follow this formula; coders > DBA's. And they do it for good reason. By making the DBA the gate keeper for all of the rule logic you are increasing your "bus" risk factor (he gets hit by a bus, your company is screwed). Plus he is certainly increasing his own job security (I call this complexity based job security - the more complex I can make my work seem, the less likely anyone is to fire me). If I were to perform a risk assessment here I would definitely want my larger group of coders handling rule logic.
    Hope this helps.

  • Solving "COMMIT business rules" on the database server

    Headstart Oracle Designer related white paper
    "CDM RuleFrame Overview: 6 Reasons to get Framed"
    (at //otn.oracle.com/products/headstart/content.html) says:
    "For a number of business rules it is not possible to implement these in the server
    using traditional check constraints and database triggers. Below you can find two examples:
    Example rule 1: An Order must have at least one Order Line ..."
    But, one method exists that allows solving "COMMIT rules" completely on the database level.
    That method consists of the possibility of delaying the checking of the declarative constraints (NOT NULL, Primary Key, Unique Key, Foreign Key, Check Constraints) until the commit
    (that method was introduced first in the version 8.0.).
    E.g. we add the field "num_emps" to the DEPT table, which always has the value of the number
    of the belonging EMP rows and add DEFERRED CK which uses the values from that field:
    ALTER TABLE dept ADD num_emps NUMBER DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL
    UPDATE dept
    SET num_emps = (SELECT COUNT (*) FROM emp WHERE emp.deptno = dept.deptno)
    DELETE dept WHERE num_emps = 0
    ALTER TABLE dept ADD CONSTRAINT dept_num_emps_ck CHECK (num_emps > 0) INITIALLY DEFERRED
    Triggers that insure the solving of the server side "COMMIT rules" are fairly simple.
    We need a packed variable that is set and reset in the EMP triggers and those value
    is read in the bur_dept trigger (of course, we could have place the variable in the package
    specification and change/read it directly, thus not needing the package body,
    but this is a "cleaner" way to do it):
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pack IS
    PROCEDURE set_flag;
    PROCEDURE reset_flag;
    FUNCTION dml_from_emp RETURN BOOLEAN;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY pack IS
    m_dml_from_emp BOOLEAN := FALSE;
    PROCEDURE set_flag IS
    BEGIN
    m_dml_from_emp := TRUE;
    END;
    PROCEDURE reset_flag IS
    BEGIN
    m_dml_from_emp := FALSE;
    END;
    FUNCTION dml_from_emp RETURN BOOLEAN IS
    BEGIN
    RETURN m_dml_from_emp;
    END;
    END;

    END IF;
    -- only EMP trigger can change "num_emps" column
    IF NOT pack.dml_from_emp THEN
    :NEW.num_emps := :OLD.num_emps;
    END IF;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER air_emp
    AFTER INSERT ON emp
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    pack.set_flag;
    UPDATE dept
    SET num_emps = num_emps + 1
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    pack.reset_flag;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER aur_emp
    AFTER UPDATE ON emp
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    IF NVL (:OLD.deptno, 0) <> NVL (:NEW.deptno, 0) THEN
    pack.set_flag;
    UPDATE dept
    SET num_emps = num_emps - 1
    WHERE deptno = :OLD.deptno;
    UPDATE dept
    SET num_emps = num_emps + 1
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    pack.reset_flag;
    END IF;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER adr_emp

    WHERE deptno = :OLD.deptno;
    pack.reset_flag;
    END;
    If we insert a new DEPT without the belonging EMP, or delete all EMPs belonging to a certain DEPT, or move all EMPs of a certain DEPT, when the COMMIT is issued we get the following error:
    ORA-02091: transaction rolled back
    ORA-02290: check constraint (SCOTT.DEPT_NUM_EMPS_CK) violated
    Disvantage is that one "auxiliary" column is (mostly) needed for each "COMMIT rule".
    If we'd like to add another "COMMIT rule" to the DEPT table, like:
    "SUM (sal) FROM emp WHERE deptno = p_deptno must be <= p_max_dept_sal"
    we would have to add another column, like "dept_sal".
    CDM RuleFrame advantage is that it does not force us to add "auxiliary" columns.
    We must emphasize that in real life we would not write PL/SQL code directly in the database triggers, but in packages, nor would we directly use RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR.
    It is written this way in this sample only for the code clarity purpose.

    Zlatko,
    You are right, your method is a way to implement "COMMIT rules" completely on the database level.
    As you said yourself, disadvantage is that you need an extra column for each such rule,
    while with CDM RuleFrame this is not necessary.
    A few remarks:
    - By adding an auxiliary column (like NUM_EMPS in the DEPT table) for each "COMMIT rule",
    you effectively change the type of the rule from Dynamic (depending on the type of operation)
    to a combination of Change Event (for updating NUM_EMPS) and Static (deferred check constraint on NUM_EMPS).
    - Deferred database constraints have the following disadvantages:
    When something goes wrong within the transaction, then the complete transaction is rolled back, not just the piece that went
    wrong. Therefore, it becomes more important to use appropriate commit units.
    There is no report of the exact row responsible for the violation nor are further violations either by other rows or of other
    constraints reported.
    If you use Oracle Forms as a front end application, the errors raised from deferred constraints are not handled very well.
    - CDM discourages the use of check constraints. One of the reasons is, that when all tuple rules are placed in the CAPI,
    any violations can be reported at the end of the transaction level together with all other rule violations.
    A violated check constraint would abort the transaction right away, without the possibility of reporting back other rule violations.
    So I think your tip is a good alternative if for some reason you cannot use CDM RuleFrame,
    but you'd miss out on all the other advantages of RuleFrame that are mentioned in the paper!
    kind regards, Sandra

  • Essbase parent level aggregation business rule for end users

    Can someone provide me the basic syntax of a business rule to allow end users within Planning to run a run time prompt business to aggregate their responsibility level within a dimension like Cost Center? So for example, I want to allow a cost center manager to pick his parent level cost center and then run the aggregation script to rollup only his cost center expenses. I've tried to include AGG and CalcDim commands with various global variables to enable them to select the cost center fix point, but the aggregation doesn't seem to produce the right results. Anyone have a workable syntax for this?

    If you are just trying to agg the children up to the parent it is even simplier I'll assume you are trying to roll up the company to some intermediate level
    Say you have the outline
    company
    ---East
    ------NY
    -----NJ
    ---West
    -----Ca
    -----Az
    and you want to roll up East you could do something like
    FIX (FY10, Final, Actual)
    @IDESCENDANTS("East");
    ENDFIX
    Of course I would add more into the fix to do the least work possible
    The command Idescendants really means calculate all of the descendants of the selected member. I guess if you wanted to make it more efficient you could add the level command into it
    like @idescendants("East"",-1) that would avoid looking for anything to do on the level zero members
