Automating Hyperion Planning Testing Activities

Hi All,
I would like to automate the following operations in Hyperion Planning from testing prespective.
1.Data retrival in web forms,
2.Calculation script execution,
3.Data sheet comparision
Could any one post your experiences on how we can go about with automating these stuffs.
Thanks a lot !

Hi,
Guess you have asked same question in essbase forum too- requesting the test process in essbase.
In Planning also, we do have the following
Unit testing,functional testing ,Performance testing , SIT and UAT..etc
Be specific If you have a specific concern .

Hyperion Planning Classic vs. BPMA 9.3

Hi,
We are on Hyperion Planning 9.3 (including all latest patches). We are in the process of building a new Planning application. Currently we donot have an ETL tool and it doesnt seem we will get one for the next few months until our new Planning application is deployed into production. So in a nutshell we wont have an ETL to solve the below problem.
I have used Planning Classic along with an ETL tool to build my meta-data in past implementations, and havent had a chance to use BPMA. Lately I have started getting aquinted with BPMA and understand some of its advantages. However, I still have a few specific questions;
1. I know Planning Classic allows manual creation of members, does BPMA allow the same? Or does BPMA have to have flat file or interface table to create or add members? Our business users would be manually creating some members, or for instance change the start or end month of a 'Scenario'. So, does BPMA allow manual editing and pushing of meta-data?
2. If an application is created via BPMA, they would have to interface via BPMA and not Planning Classic anymore. Is that true?
3. I understand it is possible to convert a Planning Classic application into BPMA but "NOT" vice versa. Is this true?
4. Finally, a more difficult question, a more specific question which kinda of dictates the choice for us.
My client would like individual departments do their respective budgeting (noting unusual there). However, most of these departments budget per 'Project' and more specifically like to budget based on 'Project Name' (which are unique and not generic) as opposed to 'Project Numbers' (there isnt a Project number standardization as such yet). The challenge is getting the 'Project Names' into Hyperion Planning (sadly it doesnt exist in ERP/GL yet because these are new projects).
So, though the Finance Team ultimately approves each department's budget, they would like each department be able to create their respective 'Project Names' in Hyperion Planning. And Planning capabilities like supporting detail, etc wouldnt work as they would like variance based on 'Project Names' and be able to slice-n-dice based on 'Project Names'.
Now if we had an ETL tool the above would have been simple, I would have just created an automation to say pick-up a file with 'Project Names' from a pre-determined folder location. However, because we donot have an ETL, I was wondering if BPMA could do the same, i.e., automatically pick-up a file from a folder and create members and refresh Hyperion Planning? Could the 'Batch Processing' in BPMA handle this?
Appreciate all your responses...

Hi,
First of all I wouldn't recommend using EPMA until version 11, 9.3.1 was riddled with issues.
To try and answer some of your questions
1. You can manually maintain members in EPMA if you choose to do so, you need to push it down to planning/essbase if you do make changes.
2. If the planning app is in EPMA mode then you can't edit/add/delete member information through the classic route, you can view. You still can design forms, task lists etc through planning web.
3. It is possible but no you are not meant to.
Sounds like you could do with ODI it would make your life easier, are you sure you are not licensed to use it, you may be entitled to use it.
Cheers

How can I delete only shared instance of a member from Hyperion Planning

Hello,
Can anyone tell me how I can instruct the Hyperion Planning IKM to delete a only specific instance of a shared member from Hyperion Planning? I've tried specifying the shared member, the parent of the shared instance, 'Shared' as the data storage type, and 'Delete level 0' as the operation. Instead of deleting just the shared instance under the specified parent, however, the IKM deleted the base member, which in turn deleted all shared instances of the member and all the data for the member (lucky thing I'm working in a development environment!). At one point I thought I had things working as I wanted, but now I think I must have mistaken.
Does anyone know definitively whether only a specific instance of a shared member can be deleted from Planning and, if so, exactly how to do it?
Thanks very much.

Well, with a careful review of my ODI interfaces and some additional testing I found my problem. My interface for one dimension was defined exactly as it should be and it worked as expected, whereas I found I had failed to activate the mapping for the data storage property in my interface for another dimension (DOH!). Naturally, the latter interface deleted the base member because the default data storage property value is 'Store'.
Thanks for testing and confirming that deleting only a specific shared instance of a member from Hyperion Planning does work, John.
(P.S. to John: I can't see how to change my "Helpful" tag on your first reply to "Correct", so if you want to post another reply, I'll mark it "Correct" (for more points!). Or, if you can tell me how to modify the "Helpful" tag to "Correct" I'll do that instead.)

Hyperion Planning migration error while refreshing/creating Essbase cube

Hi,
I'm migrating a Hyperion Planning application (11.1.1.4) to a complete other environment (due to the split of the companies). I have read most post on otn, but unfortunately nothing that helped me to solve the issue, yet... I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
I have executed the following steps:
1. Create a new Oracle database
2. Create a datasource to the Oracle database and to Essbase (both tested succesfully)
3. Create a fresh planning application (I have used a native Admin account and not the original owner)
4. Go into the database tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
5. Go into the database planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created - I did not do this since I could not delete this value. null is not accepted.
6. Stop Planning
7. Restore the planning application database over the one created in the first step (I had to drop the existing tables first)
8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
9. Start planning
10. Log on to planning and I did see the webforms, etc as expected.
11. Now, when I try to refresh the database, I receive an error:
Cube refresh/create in progress
Status failed
Step 4 Adding dimensions
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: getAttributeType
Does anyone has an idea? Hope someone can help me since the deadline is getting closer and closer.
Thanks!
Kind Regards
Martin

Hi John,
Thanks for your reply.
I have exactly done what you have described. I droped the schema and recreated it with an impdp to import.
But, in the meantime I have been investigating the dimensions and there's indeed something very wrong. Some dimensions have been mixed up. In the 'old' environment I have 10 stored dimensions and 4 attribute dimensions (as well as in EAS as in Planning, offcourse as you expect). In the 'new' environment, two stored dimensions have been mixed up with two attribute dimensions.... How is that possible?
I have never seen that. Could this be caused by the reason that we use a different version of Oracle (11G release 2 vs 10G (10.2.0.4))? Or went something wrong with exporting the schema...? Can you tell me what I can do to investigate this?
Thanks!
Kind Regards,
Martin

Setting mail notifications in Hyperion Planning 9.3.1

I have tried setting up the email notifications in Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 version
There are 3 settings that needs to be changed:
1) Advanced Settings in Hyperion Planning
2) Notifications in Hyperion Workspace
3) Set provisions in Hyperion Shared Services
Also our company mail server is set on googlemail so the standard SMTP server used for outlook confirguration is smtp.gmail.com
The problem I'm facing is:
1) During send test mail at notifications in hyperion workspace it is not showing any result as there is an error at "Send Test Mail to"
2) Also does googlemail work as a mail server since smtp.gmail.com acts as the mail server for our company?
3) The default port number used for SMTP is 25 but in our case it is 995. Where is the provision for changing the port number in Hyperion Planning System?
Thanks in advance

===================================
Loading the Module 'HyperionPlanning.planning' failed.
The Operation was times out.
===================================
Restarting the Hyperion services does not resolved the issue.
We can login to the shared service , workspace and other Hyperion modules , however Hyperion Planning is not working.
Could you please advice where would be the problem and How I should go ahead to resolve this issue
Thanks ,

How to migrate dimension member text files from ODI to Hyperion Planning

Hi
We are having an issue with ODI that it was not connecting to planning.
Later with some instructions from oracle, we have tried to set some RMI path in websphere and we tested the RMI connectivity test.
It was successfully connecting to planning.
Then we want to test that ODI is connecting to planning or not.
For this I think if anyone can send the doc relating to dimension member upload thru ODI to hyperion planning using text files, it will be helpful.
Appreciate if anyone can help us on this.
Please communicate to [email protected] for doc sending.
Thanks
Rajesh Reddy

Go through His(John's) earlier blogs which very clearly explains how to get connected & keep the ball rolling.
If you're so scared to use the existing connections, you may want to-
i) Set up new Master & work repository;
ii) Do few quick configurations from Topology Manager;
iii) Create your project, models, Interface;
Let us know if something isn't still clear.

How to copy and paste from excel in Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2 using the Mozilla 17 as my browser?

Hi,
I'm using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2.300 and Mozilla 17 as my web browser, and I'm trying to paste a number from excel directly into a cell in a data form in Hyperion.
ie. after I copy the figure from a cell in excel, I go to a cell in Hyperion Planning and either press Ctrl+V or use the right-click mouse button on the cell where the Copy/Paste/Cut... menu appears.
Either way the number is not pasted (nothing happens)
On the other hand, if I double left-click in the cell (which is used for entering values manually in Hyperion Planning) the number if pasted correctly, however this is not a good workaround.
Please assist.
Thank you

Hi, Theresia
Yes you're absolutely right, I created VR from the manage form's menu. So I use standard HP 11.1.2 functionality. I've seen it in new features while read Oracle documentation. Also with testing of approvals in Proccess managment I use distinct colours for negatives and diff values (greater 1000 and 100 in my example). Colours work fine, but i can't say it about aprovals :). And all these examples of using planning form VR's i've taken from oracle administrators&user guiide and from presentations of EPM 11.1.2
In addition I've started work with Hyperion products 2-3 month ago. Hence I have to read a lot of information because my previous experience was OLTP, RDBMS not OLAP.
As a first step i wanna know all standard possibilities of product i use. And also best practice and some often used technics. Many thanks for your idea with Smart list and BR i'll try it (though i use EMPA and Calc Manager rules). I know that soon I have to use Java API's, so I might read and learn Java to write the simplest code first. But for me it's too much info i have to load into my brain in such short period :)
As a resume, my opinion it's a bug of new features EPM 11.1.2. But maybe I'm wrong cause none has said the same
Anyway thanks, Theresia, for your help. If you know or will some new additional info i'll say you thanks again
Best regards,
Vladimir

Strange Hyperion Planning data form bug...

Hi all,
I'm having a very strange problem on a data form in Hyperion planning. When trying to input a number against a percentage type member, after pressing enter it sometimes displays as the number I put in - 0.00000000000000001 !!
So, for example, I input 0.47%, hit enter, and it changes to 0.469999999999999999 in the form. Even after I save the form, it continues to display this way. This only seems to happen for specific numbers - i.e. if I input 0.46%, press enter, it displays correctly as 0.46%. But I have this problem with 0.47% and other specific numbers, across all data forms, regardless of the member intersection where they're entered.
A retrieve in smartview shows it correctly as 0.0047, so I suspect it is not a problem with how the data in being input, but rather how it is being displayed by Planning.
Has anyone ever come across this or anything similar before? Any solutions that come to mind?
I'm using EPM 11.1.2.2. Have tested with Mozilla and IE - problem occurs with both.
Thanks.

Essbase represents numbers as double.
Go through this document to understand data precision (even though it is for 6.5, i think it is still valid)

ODI - Java Error when trying to reverse engineer - Hyperion Planning

Hi,
I am receiving the error below when I am attempting reverse engineer the emission members into the models tab in the ODI Designer. In topology manager I get connection successful in both Synopsis memory engine and in File technology and I have checked all my settings and everything looks correct compared to the test environment. We are actually testing the Production install with a very simple Hyperion Planning dimension build. Does anyone have any ideas why I am receiving the error below.
Thank you in advance for the help!!

Hi,
It looks as though we got it to work. However the way we got it to work is a bit confusing. We had someone just login and try it. The only difference is they used the admin username instead of the one we were using. They successfully ran the reverse. Then we re-logged in with the other username we were using before and it worked.
I just realized however before they did that, I was on the Prod server trying to open and view the odiparams.bat file. I accidentally ran the file by choosing 'open' instead of 'edit'. Thus I'm thinking that running that odiparams.bat file actually fixed the issue rather than logging in with admin account.
What would your professional opinion be on this as we can't recreate the issue and figure out which one fixed it.
Thanks,

ODI Integration - Hyperion Planning inbound to GL

ODImates,
I am designing a full integration (2 way-sided) from EBS-GL to Hyperion Planning and Hyperion Planning back to EBS-GL.
The first side is almost finished, I extract the information from GL and create the specific format used by OTL Loader to update both metadata and data.
But my problem is when I want to reverse Planning application data and return it to update GL... I had no information of how ODI can do such thing. Or maybe anyone can give me some idea of how create Open interfaces to accomplish that task in an automated way.
Hope to know about you soon

You will need to extract the data from essbase and load into a staging area where it can be transformed for going back into EBS.
I wrote an article on extracting essbase data with ODI in the past - http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/2008/12/odi-series-extracting-data-from-essbase.html
Cheers

Cannot Initialize Sample Application in Hyperion Planning

Hi,
I am new to Essbase and Hyperion EPM System 11.1.1.1.0, and I am currently trying to test Planning functionality. I have installed and configured the EPM system, and when I run the EPM System Diagnostics, everything is Successful except Connecting to Essbase Studio Server (which is a seperate issue for another thread).
I am trying to work with the sample Planning application included with the install. I followed directions here from John Goodwin's blog, but I encounter an error when I try to initialize the sample application. I have also tried creating the application through the Workspace, which is documented here. I get the same error when initializing the sample application.
The error message I'm getting says: "Failed to initialize Sample Application. Please see log for details." Where is this Planning log located? I am running on Tomcat.
When I try to create the database, following John's blog, through Administration > Manage Database > Create, I also am getting an error on step 18 of 21: [Consol] Verifying member formulas. The error reads:
com.hyperion.planning.olap.HspVerifyOutlineException: Verify Outline failed with the following errors:
     Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "411100".
     Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "412100".

     Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "511700".
     Error [1200497] detected in member formula for member "511800".
What do I need to do to get this sample application up and running so I can see what it does?
How do I initialize the sample application?
Why can't I create a database correctly (without the error above) so I can then load data into the Consol database via the Essbase Administration Services Console? Currently the outline in EAS does not verify (it gives me the same list of member error messages above), and so I cannot load the sampleapp_data into the database. If anyone has any insight, please help. Thank you.

Thanks Seb,
This was very helpful, but my problem of initiliazing and creating a functional Sample Applicaiton is not quite solved. I checked my outline in Essbase Administration Services, and received the same member errors I mentioned in my first post. It seems that my outline has member formulas that reference unknown member names (as you suggested), so these members with invalid member formulas are returning errors. I went in to all these members and manually changed the formula scripts to ; (semi-colon) and verified them.
After I fixed all the errors, the outline verified successfully. However, I still am getting an Error when trying to load data from sampleapp_data.txt file. The first couple times, my error was related to unknown members names that were in the datafile but not in my outline, like "FY08", "Plan", "BAS" (i'm guessing this is a currency?), and "Working". It gave me these errors one at a time, so for example, the first time when loading the data the error would read "Unknown Member in File [FY08]", then after i added that member to the outline it would go through a list of other unknown members one by one. Finally, when I manually added them all, I am currently getting this error message after attempting to load the sampleapp_data.txt file:
Parallel dataload enables; [1] block prepare threads, [1] block write threads.
Incorrect Number Of Column Members In Asymmetric File After [1] Records Completed.
Unexpected Essbase error 1003005.
I have the Oracle guide that describes what Essbase error 1003005 means, but the information isn't very helpful to me. The guide simply seems to suggest that I check to see that my datasource is valid. Since my data source is the sampleapp_data.txt file included with the installation, I myself did not create the data so I really don't know how to ensure that it is valid. Is it possible that when I downloaded the files, I got a bad version of the Sample Application database outline or datafile? I am unsure of how to fix this problem, as my goal still remains to test the functionality of Essbase and Hyperion Planning. If anyone can point towards a solution or towards another way to test out applications in Planning, please help. Thank you.
