ASO application - Dimension type changes

I have changed 6 out of 19 dimensions in my ASO application from 'Multiple Hierarchy Enabled' to 'Stored'. The changed dimensions used to have only 1 hierarchy (stored) under them. On rebuild and reload of data, the cube shows different numbers? Any clue why is this happening?
Old and New applications both use default aggregations.
Many thanks in advance.

When you enable multiple hierarchies enabled, it makes the dimension member a label only and pulls the total from the first hierarchy(First member) under it. If you change it to stored, its possible you are now aggregating up multipe groupings that you didn;t realize were being considerd as multiple hierarchies.

  • After installing Acrobat/Reader on Windows 7 or Vista, icons of all applications/file-types change t

    After installing Acrobat/Reader on Windows 7 or Vista, icons of all applications/file-types change to Acrobat/Reader icon and double clicking on any icon/file launches Acrobat/Reader (instead of the native application associated to the file type). Is there an easy fix for this problem?

    I'm sorry, but I wasn't aware of a native PDF viewer for Windows.
    Nonetheless, if you want to change your default PDF application in Windows, you need to right click on any .PDF file, select "Properties",
    then "Change",
    then select the program you want to open a PDF with.

  • Changing dimension types in Hyperion Planning

    I have a Planning 11.1.1.3 application and I would like to change the dimension type of a dimension. Dimension Customer is the one that has the country type now but it needs to be changed as dimension Product is the one that now need the country type, leaving Customer without a type. Is there a way of changing the type without having to delete all the data forms, deleting the members, changing the dimension names and the reloading the metadata to the correct dimension? I tried changing the type via Essbase but as soon as I refresh the application, the types change as they are in Planning (expected) and I can't seem to find a way of changing the type in Planning without having to rebuild part of the application! Thanks in advance for your replies.

  • EAS7.1 aso dimension property change using rule file.

    I have a outline having 1 dimension "Terms" as a account type and data storage as "data store".Now i am trying to load members using rule file.
    Outline: ABC (Active Alias Table: Default)
    Scenario Stored <2>
    Currency Stored
    Terms Accounts
    Now i have ceated a rule file using source file like
    "Terms","T1","Terms Hierarchies","~O","",""
    "T1","TOT"," ","~O","",""
    "T1","OTH","","~O","",""
    "OTH","Loaded Days","","~","",""

    "TOT","R99"," ","~ "," "," "
    "R99","R90","","+ "," "," "
    "R90","R901","","+ "," "," "
    i am using parent child relationship and i hav cheched the option s
    like "allow property changes" and allow formula changes....in dimension build settings..the rule shows valid ..but during dimension member load it is giving me the folowing error
    "\\Outline verification errors:
    \\Member Terms has no value source. Aggregate storage outlines require non level-0 members in accounts dimension to be either non-stored members or have internal/external formula.
    \\Member [Terms] has an unspecified error.
    but if i am removing "~O" property with "O" only in data source file then the dimension member load is suuccessful...
    wat i feel is anyhow the "dimension property change is not being set"...
    can any one please tellme wat option i m missig to check in rule file..??
    your opinion and suggestion will be highly appreciated.....

    The documentation explains the difference with examples, now I was going to post the link but I might as well post the info from the link.
    Joining Fields
    You can join multiple fields into one field. The new field is given the name of the first field in the join. For example, if a data source has separate fields for product number (100) and product family (-10), you must join the fields (100-10) before loading them into the Sample.Basic database.
    Creating a Field by Joining Fields
    You can join fields by placing the joined fields into a new field. This procedure leaves the original fields intact. Creating a field is useful if you need to concatenate fields of the data source to create a member.
    For example, if a data source has separate fields for product number (100) and product family (-10), you must join the fields (100-10) before you load them into the Sample.Basic database. If, however, you want to preserve the two existing fields in the data source, you can create a field (100-10) using a join. The data source now includes all three fields (100, -10, and 100-10).
    For other rule options read - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/ddlfield.html

  • EPMA 11.1.1.3  deployment of ASO application to Essbase issue

    Hi,
    We are having trouble deploying an ASO application from EPMA to Essbase. When we deploy the application it validates okay and then completes 100% but the outline does not get loaded into Essbase. In the EPMA deployment message text is the following error
    *[Network Error: Cannot send Data, Loading new outline for database Failed]*
    NB: 1. we have two other applications: a planning application and a BSO application. Both can be successfully deployed from the same application library to the same Essbase server so i think the issue is specific to the ASO application.
    2. We successfully deployed the ASO application last Friday at 4pm prior to the change I am tryign to implement this week.
    3. The three applications share common dimensions from the shared library one of which is the Account dimension.
    4. The change I am trying to deploy is an alternate hierarchy in the account dimension (dynamic calc - containing shared members) - I have changed the storage type to Storedata in the ASO application.
    5. I have subsequently removed the alternate hierarchy and tried to deploy - still gettign the same issue.
    Any suggestions on where to look to solve this would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Restoring the whole driectory has still been unsuccessful.
    deployign the application from EPMA will start to build the otn file - very slowly - it took over an hour and then it just stops and never completes the deploy so we are left with an OTN and an OTL file and EPMA states that the application is deployed but out of sync with deployment.
    the error we are gettign in the application log file is
    [Thu Oct 04 09:20:27 2012]Local/FINASO///Error(1270005)
    Fatal error: invalid page encountered in aggregate storage file at location [0001.0001.00000002]
    [Thu Oct 04 09:20:27 2012]Local/FINASO///Error(1270071)
    Page ID [0000.0000.00000000] in the page header doesn't match page location [0001.0001.00000002]
    I have also tried building a replacement ASO application in EPMA and deploying it - we were able to complete this with an application with 3 local dimensions each with 1 member but this took over an hour. when we try to do it with the same build as our DEVELOPMENT equivalent for the ASO file (which works in dev) it starts to build it but then falls over and leaves just an otn in the database directory.
    any ideas on what else i should be lookign at?
    cheers

  • Question regarding ASO application in Essbase 11 version

    Hi All,
    Thanks for the replies to my previous posts.
    I have a question regarding the ASO applications for telecom company built in Essbase 11 version. Please provide your feedback on the design.
    The ASO application has the following number of Dimensions:
    Dimensions     Number of Levels     Number of Level 0 Members     Number of Attribute Dimensions
    Dimension1     2     6.5 million     15
    Dimension2 1     3     
    Dimension3     1     4     
    Dimension4 1      6     
    Dimension5 1     6     
    Dimension6     1     5     
    Dimension7 1     3     
    Dimension8     5     1700     
    Dimension9     2     800     
    Dimension10 2     40000     
    Dimension11 3     750     
    Dimension12 2     34000     
    Dimension13 1      15     
    The number of Measures is 8.
    The outline size is around 2.12 GB.
    The data is mostly sparse. Does this design yield a good performance. Should I change some of the attributes to UDAs to increase the performance.I think Attribute dimensions are more flexible than UDAs but it affects the performance of the retrieval.
    Thanks in advance.
    Kannan.

    In ASO attribute dimensions are treated like regular dimensions, That is to say they are materalized just like a regular dimension. Changing them to UDA's won't buy you the same performance as having them as dimensions will. The one nice thing about Attributes in ASO cubes (and BSO cubes) is you don't clutter us the screen with dimensions that are not used a lot. If your attrubite dimensions are used often in your ASO cube, there would be no performance difference if you made them regular dimensions.

  • How to export level0 data in COLUMNAR form from an ESSBASE ASO application?

    Hello,
    I am in the need to export the level0 data from as 11.1.1.3 Essbase ASO application in COLUMNAR form.
    please note that the size of the db is 6GB and report script failed.
    Is it possible? please sugesst a way.
    thanks,
    Ankit

    y dont you use report script
    few tips to for build report script when you have huge data
    1. Decrease the amount of Dynamic Calcs in your outline. If you have to, make it dynamic calc and store.
    2. Use the <Sparse command at the beginning of the report script.
    3. Use the <Column command for the dense dimensions instead of using the Page command. The order of the dense dimensions in the Column command should
    be the same as the order of the dense dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Column (D1, D2)).
    4. Use the <Row command for the sparse dimensions. The order of the sparse dimensions in the Row command should be in the opposite order of the sparse
    dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1)). This is commonly called sparse bottom up method.
    5. If the user does not want to use the <Column command for the dense dimensions, then the dense dimensions should be placed at the end of the <Row command.
    (Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1, D1, D2)).
    6. Do not use the Page command, use the Column command instead.
    this will work trust me

  • Application Focus randomly changes

    Im about to go nuts... Even as I type this, Lion is doing this crazy thing.
    If I have a bunch of windows open, which I always do, the Application focus randomly changes.  To better describe, If I am typing something in the address bar in Safari, it will bring windows from other applications, but the cursor is still in Safari, typing the keys I hit.  I can't see what I am typing because it brings EVERYTHING to the front (Excel, Word, PPT, Skype, SFDC Chatter.. and the 10,000 other apps
    I end up having to having to minimize everything to the dock so that I can see what I am typing.. and to keep from pulling my hair out.
    This is a hard one to search discussions for, I hope it has been solved!

    PS - This happens on my brand new MBP, 2 year old quad core iMac and second gen MBA.

    Well, I guess there's the standard troubleshooting stuff to try to see if we can't get a hint....
    Have you tried:
    -  Starting in Safe Mode (hold shift key during startup) and seeing if the behavior persists?
    -  Creating a new user (or using Guest) and seeing if the behavior persists for that user?

  • How to deploy a Flex application (Server Type ColdFusion) to production

    I have built a flex application using Flash Builder 4.6.  It utilizes ColdFusion Flash Remoting for its data services.  When first setting up the data services I had to set a bunch of properties in the flex server section.  Which I am not sure are all correct but the app does run and connect to the data services.  They were:
    Application Server type: ColdFusion
    Use remote object access service
         ColdFusion flash remoting
    Server Location:
         Deployed to Java application server
         Web Root: v:\inetpub\testFlex
         Root URL: http://myDevServerIP/
         ColdFusion Was folder: v:\CF9\JRun4\servers\testFlex\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war
    My question is now when I'm ready to deploy to my production machine and load the app onto a tablet or other computer, obviously the Root URL will be different something like http://myLiveURL.com.  Is this the only thing I change?  Do I even change it here or is there some other location?  Any other things I need to change?
    Thanks!
    Your help is much appreciated!

    All the paths to CFCs are the same in my live production site.  Can you be more specific as to what you mean by "RemoteClass aliases in your AS Classes and CFCs (if any) are correct."?  How will the app know that the CFC is on http://myLiveSite.com instead of http://myDevSite.com?  The only line of code that I have noticed that points to a URL is the endpoint in a file called _Super_XXX.as.  And at the top of that file it says that the file is not meant for editting.
    To clarify...I see your app/code all exists on a server access via a web browser so I can understand that everything still works when deployed.  Mine is a mobile app so when I am developing and testing on my local computer the URL points to my local development machine.  However when I deploy it to a mobile device like a tablet and run the app, it needs to be able to access a cfc on a remote server via a different URL ie. my http://myLiveSite.com/myCFC.cfc instead of http://localhost/myCFC.cfc
    Thanks for your help!  I will now take a look at your thread.

  • Using dimension type u2018Subtableu2019 in BPC

    Does anyone know about using dimension type u2018subtableu2019? Has anyone ever used it?
    Thanks in advance
    Nitin

    The sort answer is - No - you need not use it if you don't want to.
    In the application, the normal transactions would have some u2018catch allu2019 dimension member such as u2018noaccountu2019 assigned to them for this subtable dimension. You donu2019t have to use this subtable dimension since the same can be achieved by using other regular dimensions as well. However if you are not using the stored procedure, you can write SQL logic to accomplish the same. Alwyn Berkhout has given a good example of one such SQL code in an earlier thread in this forum. It is as follows:
    *SELECT(%OPENINGACCOUNTS%,"ID",ACCOUNT,OPENINGACCOUNT_PROPERTY'')
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET TIME = 2006.DEC
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET SUBTABLES = F_CLO
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET ACCOUNT = %OPENINGACCOUNTS%
    *WHEN SUBTABLES
    *IS "F_CLO"
    *WHEN ACCOUNT
    *IS %OPENINGACCOUNTS%
    *REC(FACTOR=1,TIME="2006.JAN",SUBTABLES="F_OPE"
    *ENDWHEN
    *ENDWHEN
    *COMMIT

  • Financial Analytics How to determine dimension types

    How can we determine what ypes of dimensions are built by Oracle as part of OBIA?

    Easiest way to check what are enables as SCD Type 2 are those that have a "SCDUpdate" mapping associates with them. To check exactly which fields are enabled for Type 2 Changes..you will have to dig into the SIL Mappings. Here is an excerpt from the BI Apps guide that explains this:
    The logic that tracks Category 2 changes is contained in exposed objects in each SIL dimension mapping that supports Category 2 changes.
    There is a lookup between the Source Qualifier and the Filter. This lookup is used to determine if the record already exists in the target and, therefore, needs to be updated in addition to other system columns. Columns that track Category 2 changes are returned in this lookup and passed to the next expression. The columns returned by the lookup are compared with the columns passed from the staging table. If any of these columns are different, the record is flagged for a Category 2 change.
    This expression contains a variable port named 'TYPE2_COLS_DIFF'. If this port is flagged as 'Y' then a Category 2 change will be triggered. If it is flagged as 'N' then a Category 1 change will be triggered.
    To change the columns used to determine a Category 2 change, modify the lookup to pass any additional columns you want to be evaluated for Category 2 changes. Then, modify the variable port 'TYPE2_COLS_DIFF' to include this column when being evaluated.
    hope this helps...

  • How to update the editor properly after the source types change??

    Dear all;

    recently i have upgraded from vs 2008 to vs 2013 and i got the following  bug :
    strange thing i have noticed is that if i tried to make any changes in db and updated it in llbl application then visual studio (after clean and rebuild the solution ) recognize changes only in the code behined editor but in the design editor if i
    tried to put gridview control and tried to populate it using LLBLdataSource control  then the gridview control load old fields not the new ones
    why this problem keep happening in the design editor but fixed in the code behind????
    so i tried to post this bug in LLBLgen forums and i got the following response :
    " the datasource controls sometimes act weird because vs.net doesn't update the editor properly after the source types change. This is unfortunately a problem related to the ASP.NET tooling for webforms.."
    so  any idea on how to fix this issue

  • Duplicate member in ASO application

    Hi,
    I need to load data in an ASO application (version 11.1.2.1). Provision for duplicate members is enabled for this application and so, some of the members across dimensions have duplicate members. But during data loading, Essbase is throwing error on duplicate members and data is not loaded. Similarly, in Smart View, query is not accepted if duplicate members are selected.
    Please advise if there is any work around to load data for duplicate members.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    one basic things is duplicate members / member aliases are not allowed within same parent.
    Make sure your application is enabled for duplicates and try to create some duplicates manually and then send data through some add-in, etc. For data loads, have you tried to load them using qualifiers ?
    Refer the below link for working on duplicates
