Alias in Planning.

Hi,
We are building planning app. right now we are loading dimention member.
So I have a question that can I use same alias for more then 1 member? if yes then how?
Thanks,

You can always append the actual node name in front of the alias, that will make the description unique.

  • What are the gotchas when you create alternate alias in Planning

    I will be creating an alternative alias in Planning for the first time and I am curious if there are any gotchas. Any drawbacks?

    Uniqueness would probably be the one to watch out for, I don't see many drawbacks it is quite common to use alternate alias tables.
    Cheers

  • Alias in Webform

    Hi
    Is there any way we can use an alias other than default alias in planning webform.
    Please suggest..
    Thanks

    If i understand your question correctly, you want to use an alias name in a particular data form. In that case, you can go in edit mode of that data form, and look for your "Display Properties: <Dim Name>" option. It will give you an option to choose member name or Alias name or both. Again you can do this selection for each dimension in your data form and only for that one data form.The question was about using a different alias than the default in a form, which is set by user preferences.

  • How to changing char. values and create new lines in C_TH_DATA

    Hi experts,
    we need to distribute the cost of some sender costcenters to the corresponding receiver costcenters.
    We have already created a DSO and maintained this with the sender and receiver costcenter. We use this lookup table later in the execute method of our created planning function type to take the sender costcenter and distribute this to the corresponding receiver costcenters.
    I've already implemented an IP planning function based on planning function type for this process.
    At the end when I debug the method I see that this works fine. I give you an example:
    I have in my lookup table the following record:
    sender costcenter           receiver costcenter            distribution percent
    4711                                    4712                                    75
    4711                                    4713                                    25
    Based on those records in the lookup table I've to distribute the cost of sender costcenter to the receiver costcenters.
    Just imagine I would get this record from c_th_data:
    sender costcenter    costelement     value
           4711                 3000111         100
    I have to have the following result after running the exit planning function:
       costcenter    costelement     value
           4711                 3000111         100                   -> without changing
           4711                 8000111        -100
           4712                 8000111           75
           4713                 8000111           25
    When I debug the exit function I see in the execute method that c_th_data will be filled correctly. I see exactly the records that I want to see.
    But once the function is finished I don't see this result. I also checked the conversation
    Changing Char Value in IP C_TH_DATA
    but I can't understand what happens after my coding yet.
    Can anyone help me or give me an advice what could be the problem here?
    Thank you all in advance for your support.
    Kind regards,
    Ali

    Hi Ali,
    The planning function generates the records in delta mode. I am explaining the concept taking your example only:
    Records in cube before running PF:
    sender costcenter           receiver costcenter            distribution percent
    4711                                    4712                                    75
    4711                                    4713                                    25
    sender costcenter    costelement     value
           4711                 3000111         100
           4712                 3000111         100
           4713                 3000111         100
    The records that you need to generate from code(Previous ones need to be changed):
    sender costcenter    costelement     value
           4711                 3000111         000
           4712                 3000111         175
           4713                 3000111         125
    **Please note that you dont need to generate any corrections(delta records), you only need to generate the final values in the records and the PF will generate the delta's on its own. Also in this case you should see 3 Records Read, 0 Deleted, 3 Changed.
    Please let me know if you need any more clarification,
    Thanks,
    Puneet

  • Not able to get the Alias Name(Member Description) in FR by using Planning

    Hi All,
    we are using the 11.1.2 version in my project. While i am developing the FR repots by using planning database i am not able to find the Member name in my report, but i am able to see the option. MemberName, Alias and Both. If i check the Alias or both its giving only member name only.
    Any ides on this or any post are there prior this .
    Thanks in Advance.
    Rao

    Rao,
    Thanks for the info! It is strange that despite having alias name report is populating member name. It is not the first time strange things hapend with FR.
    Can you please check if you are connecting to same data source where you see alias name? Can you pull alias name from SmartView?

  • Hyperion Planning Data form alias issue

    Hi,
    I am using Hyperion Planning version 11.1.2.2. I created data form and after member selection is over I selected alias in dimension properties. But when I am opened the data form I see member names but not alias. I want to see alias name in the data form instead of member name. Please give me solution to this?

    Hi
    In the later releases you now as a user override the data form setting with your own personal user preferences.
    Navigate to FIle->User Preferences and then Planning. In there within the display properties you will see an area for Alias settings. There is an option for member name/alias display. Make your selection there.
    Thanks

  • Planning 11.1.2 with Chinese alias

    We would like to create a planning application (non unicode mode) with some Chinese alias. All the Chinese alias are display correctly in workspace, but all the Chinese alias become to "?" in EAS after we have refreshed the application to Essbase.
    The planning config is as follows:
    Server OS: Windows Server 2008 x64
    RDBMS: MS SQL Server 2008 x64
    SQL Database collation: Chinese_PRC_CI_AI
    Planning & Essbase version: 11.1.2
    esslang: SimplifiedChinese_China.MS936@Binary
    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
    Please let me know the proper steps to create a planning application with Chinese alias
    How can we change the Planning locale, current setting is "en_US"
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The solution to your problem might be as simple as changing font used in AAS console. Simply go to options and select a Chinese compliant font instead of default Arial.
    However, I'm not sure Chinese is supported in non-unicode mode.
    Cheers,

  • Loading Alias from EBS to planning through erp integrator

    Hi all,
    Can anybody tell me how to load the member properties from EBS to Hyperion Planning using ERP integrator. My trial only loaded the members with few default properties.
    My planning application is classic. And i used mapping type as "single segment". Didnt find any detailed options there to define the member properties.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    I do not believe storage type is available.
    The Alias is based on the languages you have defined when you setup your applications inside of ERPi. Not all "aliases" will come over; and only the basic information is actually stored as a description. I would suggest you review the ERPi Admin guide for your release.
    Please review the documentation completely and ensure you understand it. The most current documentation can be found at the following URL.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/erpi_admin.pdf
    Information retrieved from the source can be found on Page 31.
    Information about aliases can be found on Page 34.
    Thank you,

  • Planning application is taking alias name in Essbase

    Hi,
    I have successfully created and deployed an EPMA application.But when i'm looking at the application in EAS two of my dimensions are taking Alias names instead of original names.. :( :( one dimension is Entity type and one dimesion is Generic type....
    suggestions on this are very helpful..
    thanks

    This is an expected behavior.
    The logic for this is EPMA is a central repository for all application dimensions. There can be multiple Entity, Account etc dimensions which are used in various applications.
    You would like to keep them seperately in the repository. So you can name them uniquely. For instance, Entity1, Entity2 etc.
    However, in the application you would want to give same names to these dimensions. In that case, you can set the alias same for both the dimensions. In above example, you can set alias as Entity for Entity1 and Entity2 dimensions which are used in different apps.
    This alias is what appears as the dimension name in the deployed Planning application - Essbase databases.
    So in short, EPMA helps you to keep multiple versions of the same dimension by giving different names to that dimension and Dimension Alias helps you to have the same name for that dimension across various apps.
    Hope this helps.

  • Alias when loading metadata into Planning

    Hi all,
    We are trying to load metadata into Planning 11.1.2 using the outline load utility. We have the dimension name, parent, data storage, and alias.
    We get this error when doing the dry run(with /N):
    Unrecognized Column header value: Alias
    Does this mean we cannot load aliases using the outline load utility? Unfortunately, all the examples in the hp-admin document only talks about loading data. Where in the 'cmd' do we specify that we are loading metadata(and not data itself)?
    Thanks,
    Sujani

    If you are loading to the default alias table the header should be Alias: Default
    Cheers

    Is there a way I can delete my primary @me email address so that I can receive emails only via my "reserved" @icloud address. eg. delete "msjones@me" and receive emails via "msjones@icloud" only.The reason being, I receive a fair bit of spam to my @me address. Going forward I plan on using an alias for certain websites to minimise this problem.

    You can't delete the address, but you can set up a Rule to move messages to that address to the Trash or another folder. Go to http://icloud.com and go to the Mail page, click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose 'Rules'.
    It's a bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - even though in fact you haven't posted them in full; I've asked the hosts to remove them.

  • Alias names missing in Planning

    Hi,
    Alias Names are missing in planning and subsequently not showing in the essbase, I checked in hsp_alias table and found 5 rows under it.
    Can you suggest the way to restore back to normal?
    Thanks, UB

    Hi John
    Restored back the schema, alias names now appearing in the Planning but not in EAS console. I tried refreshing the database by choosing the Incremental update from Hyperion Desktop Client, it just completed in a second. Then I went and check in the EAS console but no alias information pushed to Essbase.
    Then I perform Full Database Refresh, at the end of it, encountered the below error.
    Error Detected:
    *(MoveMember: 0): Could not move member (Source, destination) : [5101015, 510101DD)*
    -2147218899
    Actually, I have 5 schemas for planning application. I restored only Planning schema(where Planning app Configured). DO I need to restore all the 5 schemas to fix this issue?
    If not required, could you please tell what could be the reason for the above error. Please help.
    Thanks, UB

  • Samsung Alias 2 with a daily prepaid plan?

    I have an Alias 2 and i tried to get a service only plan but when i tried to do it there was no option for a daily plan just monthly.

    Call Customer Service at 1-888-294-6804 it might have to be reprogramed for a daily prepaid. I was told that the Alias 1 was useable on prepay but I don't know about the Alias 2.

  • After 10gto11g upgd, 'Planning Data Pull Worker'  perf is very slow

    Hi all,
    We upgraded database from 10g to 11gR2. We have 3 prod instances , they work together. They are ebiz, planning, and configurator. Some of you might be familiar with this kind of setup.
    We are running 'Planning Data Pull Worker' in APS instance (planning) instance. This program "SELECTs" (and gets data) from EBIZ instance and "INSERTS" into planning instance.
    But after upgrade, this works fine in one instance (PERF6) (half hr), and takes very long like 6+ hrs in another instacen ARCH6.
    We figured where the problem is. A select statement.
    "select count(1) from apps.MRP_AP3_SALES_ORDERS_V ;"
    Eventhough this is not exactly the select been used. We simplified by just trying "count(1)" of the main view which as the culprit.
    I am pasting trace of both instance where working fine (PERF6) and where it is taking too long (ARCH6).
    Please have a look and help. We opened a sev-1 tar as well , still problem persists.
    Thanks,
    Gopal
