Account Dimension Properties

Hi,
I have some questions concerning Account dimension properties:
1. "EnableCustom1Aggr"--->Whether aggregation is enabled for intersections of the Account and Custom dimensions This attribute is used for special totals, not summing. Specify Y if the account can aggregate with Custom dimensions or N if it cannot. does this mean that by default summing is working?
2."EnableDataAudit"---> what does it mean to have an audited account or scenario?
3. did anyone try member name that have space character on oracle database.
4.what is the use of plug accounts.
Thanks,
foksh

does this mean that by default summing is working?
The account rollup is summing by default, but if you do not have the EnableCustomAggr checked, the Custom dimension members will show nothing.
"EnableDataAudit"---> what does it mean to have an audited account or scenario? will allow you to see changes made to that account from the Tasks Folder -> Data Audit option.
what is the use of plug accounts. R/= This are were you usually store the difference between your Intercompanies.
Using spaces in member names is not recommended, try undercores _

Description on Essbase Account Dimension Properties

Hi everyone! I am a newbie on Oracle Hyperion and Essbase. I joined a company as a trainee software developer. And my role is to support my superiors in developing Planning and Budget Applications for Plantations of our company.
I tried my best to find places in internet where I can improve my knowledge in the application but there is no place I found as free since my company is not ready to give good professional training. so I decided to choose the forum where I guess I would get help.
My first question to ask is about Account Dimensions Properties,+_ what they do, what are their uses, what for an account type is used, where time balance is used etc.

Hi,
Welcome to the world of Hyperion first i suggest you to start reading the essbase dbag, it will help you to understand what exactly the product do and also help you to understand the best optimum solution for your design & implementation

Hyperion Planning- Account dimension - Sort Order Issue with ODI 11.1.1.5

Hello Experts,
First of all, I thank you everybody in this forum for posting their valuable suggestions.
I am facing a strange issue with ODI (Version 11.1.1.5) while loading metadata to Planning ACCOUNT dimension (Version 11.1.2.x). I am using a Oracle view to load metadata to this dimension. I have defined the sort order in the view and enabled SORT_ORDER_BY_INPUT. For the fresh load to the dimension, everything is working fine. But, when I move a member from one parent to another parent, and define it as the top member of new parent, it is missing its sort order.
But it is working fine if you define it as the second, third...or last member under new parent. I have tried all the possible ways by flipping all the properties but unable to fix it.
Please help me here to resolve this issue.
Your help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks

To be honest I think you are best logging it with Oracle because it sounds like you are doing everything correctly so it could be a bug.
Have you tested this on any previous versions of ODI or is it a new installation?
If it does get logged with Oracle please keep me informed of the outcome as I would be interested to hear.
Cheers

Loading Essbase Members for [ Accounts ] Dimension in ODI 11.1.1.3 ?

Hi
My source is Oracle Database tables and Target is Essbase Members of Dimension ('Accounts') i m trying to load Data to Accounts member (Employee Rate) When i perform Reverse Engineering I am only able to view Dimensions not is members. So in my interface i am not able to perform mapping cause Members are not showing up.
Problem Example:
1- Essbase Dimensions and Members
Accounts <--------------- Dimension
| Employee Rate <---------- Members
| Headcount
| Over Time Rate1
| Employee Salary
Currency <--------------- Dimension
Entity <--------------- Dimension
Period <--------------- Dimension
2- IN ODi After Reverse Engineering when i drag and drop to Target i only see Dimension Properties NOT members
Example: Parent, Two Pass Calculation
but my goal is to insert data into Memember (Employee Rate) of Accounts Dimension
So i am not able to see Members of Accounts Dimesion so i cant perform mapping with my source table.
Looing for your help.
Regards

Hi John,
Yes you are right, that was issue.
Now How i am going to get sub Members: what should be format.
Accounts Dimension ----> Dimension
|
Employee Rate -----> Member
|
Over Time1 ------> Sub Member of "Employee Rate"
|
Shift Rate ---->Sub member of "Over Time1"
I am having above hierarchy than what should be Format that i have to put in:
DATA_COLUMN_DIMENSION = ??
DATA_COLUMN_MEMBERS = ????
Thank u john, you are always helping.

Time series / account dimension

Hi,
Kindly let me know what additional benefits we get if we declare a dimension as time series or accounts .
Is it in time series we can consolidate first and last, none
and in accounts - we can give 2 pass calc ,
I am not sure whether to make a dimension year in the outline as time dimension or simply leave it as normal dimension .
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Sushmita

Hi,
Sandeep is right here.But this will give more straight forward idea.
The time dimension enables several accounts dimension functions, such as first and last time balances. These tags, called "time balance tags" or "properties".These tags provide instructions to Analytic Services "how to calculate the data in a dimension tagged as accounts".
To use the tags, you must have a dimension tagged as accounts and a dimension tagged as time. The first, last, average, and expense tags are available exclusively for use with accounts dimension members.
You can also use Two Pass calculation on members of account dimension if member contains formula.
Thanks & Regards,
Ram.

Proper formatting for dimension properties in SQL script logic

Hi all,
I'm trying to pass the time member from a property in account dimension. (Post recognized revenue by looking at deferred revenue accounts.) The dimension ACCTREV has a property called DATENAME. DATENAME refers to a valid TIME member. In 4.2 this logic worked fine. In 5.1sp3 it's not passing the correct time period (formula log indicates null value for time member).
For example: ACCTREV = 4101Billing_2008.JUN DATENAME = 2008.JUN (DATENAME is a property of ACCTREV)
Here's the logic: *REC(EXPRESSION=%VALUE%,TIME=ACCTREV.DATENAME,ACCTREV=ACCTREV.ACCT)
I've read the other post indicating brackets are required by SQL when passing parameters that contain delimiters like "." but it doesn't say how to do it!
I've tried TIME=ACCTREV.DATENAME resulting in null time members.
I've tried TIME=ACCTREV.DATENAME resulting in null time members.
I've updated the property value to 2008.JUN with TIME=ACCTREV.DATENAME resulting in null time members.
Also how do you post a thread using a bracket without turning it into a hyperlink?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edited by: Ara Toroyan on Aug 5, 2008 2:24 AM

Thanks Kranthi,
It's still not working.
I believe the problem is SQL 2005 related and the DATENAME "2008.JUN."
ACCT is a property of ACCTREV and the properties refer to valid ACCTREV members.
DATENAME is a property of ACCTREV and refers to valid TIME members-- not TimeID or UserTimeID
The formula log reveals the correct ACCTs but no TIME (null values). The problem is with DATENAME. Closer inspection of the formula log below shows that Query1 doesn't load DATENAME. (Not sure why but this could be because of improper formatting.)
I've validated the existence of all property values with =EVPRO. The values are part of the dimension tables.
Here's the forumula log: (I've deleted some of the product and time members in the log for brevity.)

Using dimension properties in LOOKUP

Hi,
I'm trying to use dimension properties in a LOOKUP, but when I execute the script the log tells me that COMPANY, SALESORG, PRODUCT and TRANSCURRENCY is not defined and therefore create a lookup on all members.
THe usage of properties in LOOKUP is described in the documentation, but somehow it doesn't seem to work for me. Can anyone help me?

Hi Gersh,
I'm getting closer. I have now tried to use the FOR/NEXT logic on 1 property and it works. I know want to include another. In this case it seems as if the LOOKUP works fine, but the WHEN/REC/ENDWHEN is not. It doesn't recognize my LOOKUP(%LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%).
Any suggestions have to solve this problem?
*LOOKUP ACTIVITYPLAN
*FOR %LOOP_CO% = %P_COMP%
    *FOR %LOOP_CU% = %P_CURR%
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:TRANSCURRENCY=%LOOP_CU%
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:ACCOUNT= "FULLCOST"
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:PARTNER="I_NONE"
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:COMPANY=%LOOP_CO%
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:SALESORG=%LOOP_CO%
        *DIM %LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%:PRODUCT=PRODUCT.PRODREF
    *NEXT
*NEXT
*ENDLOOKUP
*WHEN ACCOUNT
   *IS "QPURC"
               *FOR %LOOP_CU%=%P_CURR%
                   *REC(EXPRESSION=(%VALUE%*LOOKUP(%LOOP_CU%%LOOP_CO%)),ACCOUNT="529996")
                   *END
               *NEXT
*ENDWHEN

How to use one Account dimension for multiple account structures

We are implementing a HFM application to replace two general ledger applications, one being Corporate and the other a new subsidiary. We need to maintain both of the chart of accounts and their unique rollup structures. We are facing the difficulty in attempting to combine the two chart of accounts into one HFM Account Dimension because a few of the subsidiary accounts have the same account numbers but they are meant different things.
Question:
How can we set up two distinct account structures in HFM and also have the subsidiary accounts rolled into the Corporate accounts for consolidation reporting?
Appreciate your help.

Hope this help.

How to hide member Account dimension from BPC Administrator for Reporting

Hi experts, i need to hide some members of the Account dimension for reporting, because those members dont use it anymore, but i dont want delete them.
The question is: Does it exist any propierties for this dimension type that allows hiding members in reporting without set members in the BPC for Excel?
I can create a report which contain the members i want to show, but if any change occurs (client desire) the report is outdated.
Thank you in advance
Ignacio Vazquez

Ignacio,
There is no function like that.
You can choose below two options.
1. Create a property like 'NOUSE' and set a value 'Y' for unused member
When you create EVDRE report, set a filter against that property that has value 'N'
then those members will not be shown at the report.
2. Create 'NOUSE' parent member and put members under this parent member.
Maybe option 1 is more easier to do that.
I hope it will help you

UPLOAD MASTER DATA FROM SAP GL TO ACCOUNT DIMENSION

hi
how can i upload master data (chart of account) from BW 0GL account info object to BPC Account Dimension ?
how can i upload the hierarchy, there is no hierarchy in ECC for the chart of account

SAP offers free content + documentation in the form of rapid-deployment solutions (RDS).
In the Extended Financial Planning Rapid-deployment solution, there is a module called G/L Financial Planning which includes the full load of SAP-based account dimension from SAP ERP to BPC via BW. This content introduces BPC-based Package Links as a best practice way to load master data (including the account hierarchy and transaction data). You can download the content and documentation from the highlighted page above or HERE.
SAP also offers free training on the EPM rapid-deployment solutions in the EPM RDS Academy 2015 on SAP JAM. If the link to the Academy does not work, please register HERE and SAP will invite you.

Account dimension logic

Hi,
I've hit an issue with the length of my calculation exceeding 255. I'd like to add functions to the mdx logic library, but can't seem to figure out the best way to edit the file. I can see that there are logic files in the adminapp folder for each application, however I'm not sure how to edit and validate it. Is there an easy way to edit the files in this folder through the BPC Administrator tool?
Kind Regards,

Great - thanks. I've actually created a copy in my LegalApp and edit it through the Script Logic section and after validating I copy back into the AdminApp Folder - possibly not the best method, but it works at the moment.
Can anyone tell me how to include a calculation in the Account Dimension that is based on another calculation? As far as I am aware the solve_order is only for across dimensions. How do you manage solve order within a dimension? I have a Tuple that I want returned and I then use that account member in another account calculation. When reviewing the results the first calculation returns the value that I expect, but it seems that at execution time the first calculations result does not exist when calculating the second calculation so I get a zero result.
Any ideas? At the moment I am creating a fairly large calculation that recalculates the tuple in the second calculation, but I'd like to avoid this.
Kind Regards,
Fiona

Account dimension hierarchy text nodes ACCTYPE property

Hello,
We have master data being populated into BPC from BW. So for the Account dimension in BPC, we use the 0GL_ACCOUNT infoobject in BW. This infoobject also has all the Financial statement version hierarchies which are being loaded to BPC. The question that I have is, how should the hierarchy text node values for ACCTYPE property be populated if I have to automate this load on a daily basis.
For the actual GL accounts, we have the account number ranges defined. Like 1* series accounts are Assets etc..So we can easily define a rule for populating the ACCTYPE property values. But not sure if there is any easy logic for populating the hierarchy text nodes as we dont have any pattern in them. Would we need to maintain it manually always?
Thanks
Gaurav

Hello Richard,
If there is really no logic behind them there is off course no way of automating this. Then I guess you will have to maintain each node separately.
Some customers are also willing to change their text node structure. For example I had one when where the rules for the 0HIER_NODE records were as follows:
*           EXP -> Starts with 32*, 311*, 312*, 321*, 3111*, 3112*,
*                  3142*, 31111*, 31112*, 311111*
*           INC -> Starts with TOT, 3000000000, 3100000000, 313*,
*                  322*, 3113*, 3141*, 31113*, 311112*
*           AST -> Starts with 1*
*           LEQ -> Starts with 2*
Kind regards,
Christophe

How to use the FORMAT property of an account dimension

Hi Experts,
I tried my best but I just can't find any information about the format property of an account dimension. I know that it is a reserved one and I have seen something such as #,##0. In detail I want inc member to look like 1.000.000 and exp member like -4.000.0000.
This is probably a stupid question.
Thanx in advance,
Cora

Hi Cora-
These are Excel custom formats..please review the following link for detailed information:
[Custom Number Formats in Excel|http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/CustomFormats.htm]
For your specific example: ###,###,### for INC and -###,###,### EXP should be sufficient.
Regards,
Sheldon
