Adding commentary in ASO Cube and aggregating it to TOP Level

Hi Gurus,
I have one peculiar problem. We are adding commentary in BSO Planning cube now i have couple of problem related to it.
a) These commentary needs to be pushed in ASO cube (Reporting) which need are entered in Lower Level.
b) At top level these commentaried need to be Aggregated or rather Concatenated.
eg.
ProfitCentre has two child P1 and P2 and user enter commantary in BSO for P1 and P2 as "Market Risk Deviation" and "Standard Output"
then in the HSPgetval Smartview report the conent of report will look like:
Profit Centre          Market Risk Deviation + Standard Output
P1                        Market Risk Deviation
P2                        Standard Output.
Any thoughts/ Suggestions/ Input/ Ways to achieve so
Thanks
Anubhav

Apart from what Glenn suggested
Not out of box, you are looking at a JAVA API + SQL based solution here
Here are my thoughts
Either use a Select query and get the Text values and IDs from the tables HSP_CELL_TEXT (or HSP_TEXT_CELL) table
Create a Java API, which can import a TextList in ASO cube, ID is going to be what you get from the table
Load the data to ASO from Planning
Now for the aggregation/concatenation part, you'll have to Add those as again Smart List, This can be done by looking at HSP_CELL_TEXT (or HSP_TEXT_CELL) table, there is an ID associated with each text, get the id associated
So for example Market Risk Deviation is 1 and Standard Output Deivation is 2, then you should add Market Risk Deviation + Standard Output as 3, however you'll have to make sure that there is no entry from Planning for 3
It is complicated

ASO cubes and dimensional security, how???

Hi,
I'm getting my feet wet with ASO, and I'm wondering how to implement security on dimensions in a way similar to a Planning application (which is BSO only, I understand). When administering a planning application, I can apply security to specific members in dimensions, then refresh security etc, but what can I do for an ASO cube? I'm assuming that ASO cubes can be created/administered only through EAS.
I need to be able to control what groups/users can access certain members of dimensions of ASO cube, when they run reports on the cube.
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
User management and security is the same either for ASO or BSO application from Essbase point of view.
You can either use Native security mode or security through shared services based on the configurations done.

OBIEE BI Answers: Wrong Aggregation Measures on top level of hierarchy

Hi to all,
I have following problem. I hope to be clear in my English because it's a bit complicated to explain.
I have following fact table:
Drug Id Ordered Quantity
1 9
2 4
1 3
2 2
and following Drug Table:
Drug Brand Id Brand Description Drug Active Ingredient Id Drug Active Ingredient Description
1 Aulin 1 Nimesulide
2 Asprina 2 Acetilsalicilico
In AWM i've defined a Drug Dimension based on following hierarchy: Drug Active Ingredient (parent) - Drug Brand Description (leaf) mapped as:
Drug Active Ingredient = Drug Active Ingredient Id of my Drug Table (LONG DESCRIPTION Attribute=Drug Active Ingredient Description)
Drug Brand Description = Drug Brand Id of my Drug Table (LONG DESCRIPTION Attribute = Drug Brand Description)
Indeed in my cube I've mapped leaf level Drug Brand Description = Drug Id of my fact table. In AWM Drug Dimension is mapped as Sum Aggregation Operator
If I select on Answers Drug Active Ingredient (parent of my hierarchy) and Ordered Quantity I see following result
Drug Active Ingredient Description Ordered Quantity
Acetilsalicilico 24
Nimesulide 12
indeed of correct values
Drug Active Ingredient Description Ordered Quantity
Acetilsalicilico 12
Nimesulide 6
EXACTLY the double!!!!!!! But if I drill down Drug Active Ingredient Description Acetilsalicilico I see correctly:
Drug Active Ingredient Description Drug Brand Description Ordered Quantity
Acetilsalicilico
- Aspirina 12
Total 12
Wrong Aggregation is only on top level of hierarchy. Aggregation on lower level of hierarchy is correct. Maybe Answers sum also Total Row????? Why?????
I'm frustrated. I beg your help, please!!!!!!!!

ASO Cube, increase aggregation or improve retrieval performance

We've been using the essbase cube to create report using OBIEE.
When we use level-0 member filter, it takes quit a long time to get the results.
Any idea to improve the performance?
Is there anyway that I can improve the number of aggregation occurs at a time? Thank you.

What doesn't make sense to me is you don't need aggregations on level zero members as that is where the data is stored. I'm guessing oyu mean level sero members of one dimension and higher level members of other dimensions. Are those other dimensions dynamic or stored? Do you have a lot of calculations going on that are being retrieved? Have you materalized aggregations on the cube?

Cube and aggregation

Hi All,
I have created a cube using OWB wizard. The aggregation tab applies to all measures of the cube, where as i want to apply aggregation at an individual measure. Any idea.
Jak.

Hi,
i have tried to assign differnet aggregation roles to differing measures within the OWB Cude editor without success.
I created a simple dimension with two measures one requiring a sum aggregation and one requiring an average aggregation. I can set them ok and vailidate ok but when I close the editor and re-open theey have bothe been set to the overall cube aggregation policy. Even if this is set to NOAGG they all become NOAGG. It seems there must be a flaw in the implementation of aggregation within OWB.
Anyone found a resolution or work-around? I came accross this wjhen trying to utilise degenerate dimension keys in the cube definition....

MDX query with DMV to get all cubes and aggregation row count on SSAS engine

Hi All,
How can I get all cube names on a SSAS engine server and count of number of aggregation rows in each cube ?
I got a DMV where it shows all catalogs names and description but where can I found aggregation row count of each cube.
Please let me know, thanks in advance.
Maruthi...

Hi Maruthi,
Please check below link, hope this will help you.
SSAS 2008 CTP6 – new DMV $SYSTEM. DISCOVER_ OBJECT_ ACTIVITY
lists the memory usage and CPU time for each object i.e. cube, dimension, cache, measure, partition, etc. They also show which aggregations were hit or missed, how many times these objects were read, and how many rows were returned by them:
Discover_object_memory_usage and discover_object_activity
select * from $system.discover_object_memory_usage
select * from $system.discover_object_activity
Thanks

Show child levels when the top level is forced to be null - Avoid aggregations on the top level

Hi everybody,
it was difficult to select a title for my question.
Let´s say I have a geographical hierarchy with Region --> Country --> District --> Store levels
I want to avoid the aggregations in local currency at the Region Level because that makes no sense.
I scoped the Net Sales measure like this:
SCOPE ([Measures].[Net Sales], [Fx Rate].[Fx Rate].[Local Currency], [Stores].[Store].Members);
this = SUM([Fx Rate].[Fx Rate].&[1], [Measures].[Net Sales LC]);
END SCOPE;
SCOPE ([Measures].[Net Sales], [Fx Rate].[Fx Rate].[Local Currency], [Stores].[Region].Members);
this = null;
END SCOPE;
The scopes are working but I have a visualization problem. When I drag and drop the geo hierarchy in the pivot table nothing is shown because the upper level (Region) has only empty cells (this=null;). If I change the Fx Rate type to a reference currency,
then the regions are shown and I can expand the lower levels, change the filter again to local currency and the values are back, but this is not the best approach.
Any ideas about how to tackle that? Any comment would be appreciated
Kind Regards

Trasformations and DTP are decactivating after adding some NAV in cube

Hello Experts
Trasformations and DTP are decactivating after adding some NAV in cube and activating it.
I knew that it is normal but activating all the DTP's and Transformations is painfull work, would like to just know whether there is any programme to activate the dependent objects!!!

yes, thats right. A stupid job.
in my last project I created 3 multicubes, 14 infocubes and 23 dso's.
-> 1 change in the data modell and you must reactivate 20 objects.
I wrote a ABAP program to activate
- datasources
- transformations
- DTP's
- update roules and
- multicubes.
It's very nive. So simple now, to make a change.
I select
- a object or
- or an infoarea
- and the program search all objects in the dataflow.
I have two modes
- to display all objects
- and activate the inactive objects.
They are many tasks, where I think a tool can help me to increase my development performance. But I don't have enough time.

Adding new characteristics to cube with data

Hi Gurus,
i need to add some characteristics to a cube already in production, this cube is customized version of material stocks/movements cube (0ic_c03).
i am looking for a way to add the new characteristics without having to do reinitialisation (opening stock,...), i am thinking about a loopback process but how do i manage to get the new characteristics populated for the historical data?
Thank you.

Hi,
If you want to load historial data, you must take ECC down time and re-intialization is required.Becasue you are adding new object in Cube and for that you need to change the Update rules, then need to load historical data, so without down time and reinitialization it is not possible.
Check like below.
You have data in PSA, so try to delete data from Cube and then load from PSA. Because you may write code in Update rules on;y I think. So in that case, it may work.
Thanks

SSaudit for ASO cubes in 11.1.1.3?

Hello Gurus -
I was wondering if anyone has been able to get the SSaudit feature working on ASO cube on version 11.1.1.3 to get the .atx and .alg file generated?
We tried but it doesn't seem to work for us. Also, the "send" activity itself doesn't seem to get captured in either apps log or essbase logs.
I was wondering if there is a workaround or especial setting we need to do for ASO.
Pls, throw some light if anyone know anything on it.
Regards

SSAudit is not supported for ASO cubes and unfortunatly neither is transaction logging.
If you need to do something like this I suggest using Dodeca which can save sends in a relational table

Adding fields to 0IC_C03 cube

Hi friends,
I have to add some fields into 0IC_C03 cube. The fields are reson for movement ,special stock indicator,sales order etc. They are cmg in the datasource 2lis_03_bf. I did add them and load the data , but the data was not coming properly. Is there any other method by which i can make use of these fields without adding them in the cube and make a multiprovider on that. I need to have the customer field also. Will this data come if i make a multiprovider on top of this . Can i make a generic datasource from the table which is giving these fields and make a DSO with these fields and make a multiprovider on it.
Will the key date concept work on this .
I would appreciate ur help.

ASO cube

Hi
we are trying to build a cube . Cube is ASO cube and want to build cube wich has functionality of planning .But , we saw that planning creates a BSO cube and has fucntion for allocation. I want ot know how to do this in ASO cube
Jim

Hi Jim,
1. Firstly, I appreciate you work of incorporating the whole functionality of P and B in an ASO cube.
2. I would like to know your version .In version 11.1.2 , we do have allocation even for ASo cube. So, if its the new version, you have the pre defined function for you( "execute allocation")
Do update on the progress to the forum

ASO cube structure

Hi everyone,
I'm aware of the main differences between aggregate storage and block storage in terms of performance and features (http://www.datawarehousingsupport.com/2010/03/differences-between-aggregate-and-block.html). However I don't know anything about how ASO cubes are structured on a bit-level and the algorithms used to peform fast search (e.g. hashing, trie ...) on them.
Someone suggested me to read the Dan Pressman's presentation on www.odtug.com. It's a good beginning but does anynone have further documentation?
Thanks,

Probably you are running into this one:
Bug 14469960 - DATA REPLICATION FROM BSO TO ASO CRASHES TARGET DATABASE
Supposedly they fixed this issue in 11.1.2.2 but we are getting the problem on a 11.1.2.2 system.

MDX query performance on ASO cube with dynamic members

We have an ASO cube and we are using MDX queries to extract data from that cube. We are doing some performance testing on the MDX data extract.
Recently we made around 15-20 account dimension members dynamic in the ASO cube, and it is taking around 1 and a half hour for the query to run on an empty cube. Earlier the query was running in 1 minute on the empty cube when there were no dynamic members in the cube.
Am not clear why it takes so much time to extract data from MDX on an empty cube when there is nothing to extract. The performance has also degraded while extracting data on the cube with data in it.
Does dynamic members in the outline affect the MDX performance? Is there a way to exclude dynamic members from the MDX extract?
I appreciate any insights on this issue.

I guess it depends on what the formulas of those members in the dynamic hierarchy are doing.
As an extreme example, I can write a member formula to count every unique member combination in the cube and assign it to multiple members, regardless if I have any data in the database or not, that function is going to resolve itself when you query it and it is going to take a lot of time. You are probably somewhere in between there and a simple function that doesn't require any over head. So without seeing the MDX it is hard to say what about it might be causing an issue.
As far as excluding members there are various function in MDX to narrow down the set you are querying
Filter(), Contains(), Except(), Is(), Subset(), UDA(), etc.
Keep in mind you did not make members dynamic, you made a hierarchy dynamic, that is not the same thing and it does impact the way Essbase internally optimizes the database based on Stored vs dynamic hierarchies. So that alone can have an impact as well.

Hi Ankyjay. Ifound this in DBAG page 1087 this might help. When you take advantage of the aggregate storage data loadbuffer, Analytic Services sorts and works with the values after alldata sources have been read. If multiple records are encountered for any specificdata cell, the values are accumulated. Analytic Services thenstores the accumulated values.
