Access to "RATE" and "PLANNING" applications in "APSHELL" Appset

Hi,
When I login into "BPC for Excel" why are the applications "RATE" and "PLANNING" not in drop-down for 'Application'? Has this anything to do with security or has it got to do with "RATE" and "PLANNING" being SAP delivered content in BPC?
Regards
DN

Yes, it has to do with member access profiles. I updated the member access profiles per your suggestion and I can now see 'RATE' and 'PLANNING' in drop down for 'Applications'. Thanks.

Configure clients to develop essbase and planning applications

Hi Gurus
I have installed hyperion on one of the windows server. Now I want to configure the client components on local machine to develop essbase and planning applications. How to do that? My goal is to have multiple clients configured so that multiple developers can work simultaneously.
Thank you.

If you have essbase/planning running on a server then you don't really need to install many client components.
Planning is mainly accessible through the web, you could install smartview or the excel addin for use in excel, there are standalone installers available for this.
EAS console can be accessed over the web which will save it having to be installed on client machines, it can be accessed by http://<easmachine>:10080/easconsole/console.html
If you are looking at using financial reporting then you would have to install financial reporting studio, as you only said planning/essbase then you may not be interested.
Cheers

Financial report for essbase and planning application

Hi,
Can any one please explain me what is the difference between creating financial report for essbase application and planning application.
Considering we will have Essbase cube for the planning application
Thanks in advance

Correct, the data that is stored in Essbase will be the same regardless of which connection type you use.
Data that is only stored in Planning can only be retrieved using a Planning connection. This includes Supporting Detail and SmartLists as these are stored in the Planning relational database.
As a general rule I always use an Essbase connection unless i specifically want to get supporting detail or smartlists but that is just me.
Hope this helps

Essbase and planning applications migration from 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.4

Hi Masters,
I have few Hyperion 11.1.2.1 running servers for Essbase and planning applications (Essbase alone applications and planning applications are running into different servers). Now we are planning to upgrade 11.1.2.1 directly to new 11.1.2.4 servers.
could you guys please suggest me the best way of migrating these applications to 11.1.2.4?
Thanks a lot,
Siva

Hi John,
Actually we are moving all our existing servers to some new data center. the plan is like installing 124 in the new server in the new data center and migrate the existing 121 applications to the 124 servers.
So is there a best way to migrate like i said above? or do we need to install 121 in the new server 1st and migrate the applications from existing 121 servers, then apply maintenance release of 124 would be best way?
Thanks,
siva

ODI and Planning Applications Created from EPMA

Dear All,
can ODI be used with Planning applications created from EPMA or it only can be used with classic applications?
Your answer is very much appreciated.
BR,
ioGGo.

Hi,
Because the adapters provided within ODI does support only classic Planning applications, you can use ODI with classic Planning for metadata integration. This doesn't mean though, that you cannot use ODI to feed metadata in to EPMA. You can load the metadata to interface tables and automate the integration using EPMA batch utility.
Plus, you can still use it for data extract & load as essbase is essbase no matter your application is classic or EPMA.
However I must admit that it's more handy using with classic Planning. Check John Goodwin's blog if you haven't.
Cheers,
Alp

Created a new planning application ..while loggin in giving error as :.....

Created a new planning application with Admin id ..while loggin in giving error as :.....
Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator
Steps i followed :
1. created schema
2.created DSN on application servr
3.Created planning Applicaion from AppWizard plannig link
4.Application was succesfully created.
5.tried login into the plannig aplication got the boce error.
6.the application i not seen when i login with Admin id through EAS console ....
7.Applicaction is not created in essbase server also...i see in essbase server back end

Check out in shared services if the user is still provisioned with appropriate access, if not do it.
Try running updateusers utility because user dosent exists as NTLM and try creating the application again from Essbase and from Planning.
If it doesnt work then Create a new user with administrator access and In EAS refresh the security from shared services and try creating the essbase and planning applications using new admin. Check if it works.

Unable to find planning application option in Administer

Hi
i have created application through web in 9.3.1 version but i am unable to find out the planning option.
In workspace
Navigate --> applications --> here both hfm and planning applications display but
Navigate -->Administer -->Classic application Administration --> consolidation administration(HFM) only shows but planning doesn't shows here
please suggest ur valuable suggestions to rectify this..
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
This is governed by the shared services role of "Dimension Editor", have you provisioned the role to the user that is accessing workspace?

Unable to log on Planning application using Spreadsheet Add-In

Hi.
We are experiencing some problem with Spreadsheet Add-In and Planning application.
We provisioned Planning users and created regularly security filters in Essbase: in fact, we are able to see users in Administration Console with Planning as Application Access Type.
However, users are able to connect to Essbase server using Spreadsheet Add-In but they cannot connect to any application: I mean that they do not see the Planning application and its related databases by Spreadsheet Add-In.
Any idea?
Thanks a lot in advance

Just one more issue.
I tried to create a filter in Essbase, naming it as filter 1. Actually, the filter work correctly, even if the its name has a blank space.
However, if I verify the filter in Administration console, it returns an error ( Invalid object name specified. filter 1 ): I think that it is a bug on 9.3.0.1.
With regards to Planning, I noticed that users are not assigned to their filter in Essbase. In fact, as I take a look under Security node in Administration Console, no user has Access Database set to Filter, even if I would expect for it. Am I wrong?
Anyway, that it is why users ticked to Analytic Services and Planning in Shared Services are able to use Spreadsheet Add-In... Unfortunately, they are able to retrieve all data... :_|
Thanks a lot in advance

Access denied error for Java application on 2630

Hello!
I have bought a 2630 recently. Now I have installed a small Java application that tries to store some data in the phones memory. However, each time the application tries to do so, I get a "java.lang.SecurityException Access denied" message and the application states that it could no save its data. I have set the security settings for that particular application so that the phone should ask before each access to the file system. In fact, before I get the error message, the phone asks whether the application may write data to the file system. But still answering that question with "yes" I get the Access denied error message. Now I am puzzled. By the way, the application uses JSR-75 which the 2630 should support.
Anybody any ideas?
Regards,
Volker

RESOLVED!
I was able to create file from java application on Nokia 2630. Here is how:
1. root C:/ is mapped to folder "Downloads"
2. The folders does not show with their names
3. there are 2 folders in C:/ predefgallery and predefjava
4. in predefgallery there are several predefined folders e.g. predefrecordings is one of them
5. I am able to create file inside predefrecordings, creating file in upper folders is denied
6. user created folders aro NOT shown at all
7. I had to manualy confirm reading of data many times and writing data once.
I hope this can help to other Nokia users since I did not find this anywhere.

Business Rules and Planning Login Error

Hi Experts,
Today with the help of our DBA we migrated all the Production Planning Oracle database to Planning development database.
But after all, we restarted all the services and after that when we are connecting to the Console and Planning application we are getting log in erros and in console it is successfully opening all the administration services but giving fail to login to HBR.
When i login into the Planning application I am getting this error.
"Unsuccessful logon check for details"
We are using Planning 4x and Essbase 7x.
Please suggest me.
Edited by: 795788 on Jun 14, 2011 11:03 AM

I guess I did not read your post carefully before this. Did you just copy application databases or planning system database too? You probably just needed to copy application databases for copy applications from prod to dev.
You cannot log in because of difference in user authentication. when you add a user to any system, it translates that userid into a ID that identifies the user according to external system you may be using. However, if you are using PROD to connect to prod MSAD but using dev to connect to dev MSAD (or other), they potentially resolve in different internal IDs. My suggestion would be to drop planning tables and recreate/reconfigure planning in dev. Then create your applications in dev. After creating application shells, you can ask DBA to copy database for applications into application databases followed by copying essbase apps from prod to dev. For HBR, you should just export rules from PROD and import to DEV. Its more involved but much cleaner.

Can 9.2 HFM/Planning applications be migrated to 11.1.2

Hi,
Can the HFM and Planning applications on 9.2 version be migrated into a newly installed 11.1.2 Hypeiron environment? The reason for not doing a in-place upgrade has been to do the clean install and optimize the intall and configurations..
Any help would be appreciated...

I have taken backup from 11.1.1.3(sql server 2005) and restored it into 11.1.2.2(sql server 2008 R2).
I followed your blog and upgraded planning application too.
but i didn't see any change in the planning application. How can we get forms, rules, scripts from 11.1.1.3 version to 11.1.2.2?
In epm_install_1112200 doc, we have about about upgrade, can you briefly explain us about this upgrade concept?
Thanks,

Separate Appsets for Consolidations and Planning

Hi BPC Gurus
We are on NW 7.5 version. We are implementing Consolidations and Planning. Our Planning functionality has 9 applications and Consolidations will have 4 applications.
At this point we have decide whether to have one Appset for both Consolidations and Planning or two different appsets.
From the business perspective, there is no dependancy between the two. We never move data from planning and Consolidation, nor do we share dimensions like account, entity etc.
Could any one give me the pros and cons of having one appset and two appsets in this case
Thanks
Anjali

Because you don't have dependency between the consolidation and planning I think it is a recommende to use separate appset.
Pro:
- security separation and maintenance easier (heaving just one appset means a more complex security which has to be manage for each user for all applications (consolidations and planning)
- Load of dimensions are done separate which means faster login (dimensions are load per appset so heaving one appset means an user will load for 13 applications. heaving two appset user will load or 4 or 9)
- Appsets maintenance can be done in paralel - Optimize application can be done in paralel for applicationm from different appsets but it can not be done in paralel into same appset)
Contra
- Reporting with data from both planning and consolidation in the same time easier when you have just one appset.
I hope this will help you.

EPMA Common Timebalance for Essbase and Planning

Hi,
We are using EPMA for managing dimensions in Planning and Essbase. We have a shared ACCOUNT dimension, the account dimension is used to create an Essbase and Planning application.
We are facing issue with TIMEBALANCE property on the shared ACCOUNT dimension, when we set TIMEBALANCE for a member as NONE it works fine for Essbase application and throws out error when we deploy for PLANNING application, viceversa when TIMEBALANCE is set as FLOW it works for PLANNING and not for ESSBASE.
We don't want to maintain 2 separate ACCOUNT dimension in EPMA for ESSBASE and PLANNING just for this purpose. Is there a way to overcome the TIMEBALANCE property or a common value which will work as FLOW/NONE.
Thanks
Ramesh

I haven't faced your specific issue, however I faced something VERY similar. We were trying to set properties for both an ASO and BSO cube, using EPMA to manage the hierarchies. Setting the ASO property would change the BSO property and vice versa. My general impression was that the Essbase property settings weren't really sorted out in EPMA. This is one reason people don't use EPMA for Essbase (yet). It's okay for Planning, but not really ready for Essbase. Hopefully it will be better in 11.1.2.

How to find out total of number of users accessing Hyperion Planning applications ?

Hi All,
Could someone help me with the details of how to find out total number of users who are accessing Hyperion Planning application in Env.?
This is with regard to licenses so wanted accurate and unique information,
Thanks
Amith

Hello Amith,
I think you should have a look at the blog of Cameron Lackpour http://camerons-blog-for-essbase-hackers.blogspot.be/
In the "Shared Services Stupid Trick" blogs, he shows how to find the real access to an application. The side benefit is that it is amusing to read.
In how far this is OK for the licenses is written on another page. You likely need to use the same method as Oracle does. Ask the Salesperson how to do this. (I am curious what his/her reply is).

Philip Hulsebosch.

Thank you for your reply.
With your help, I can verify it easier rather than creating dataform to verify it.
I have resolved the question now, the root cause is I had used the wrong parameter, shouldn't add '/N' in the command. for /N is a dry run to check whether there are error in CSV file, it won't perform metadata load.
If no error occured, run the command without /N, then the metadata load will be performed.
I refer to this artical,
