Avoid page dimension roll up

Hi everybody,
my question is:
is it possibile to avoid, for a particular scenario only, that a custom (icp) member rolls-up to its parent?
Suppose a scenario ACT (actual) and a scenario ACT_P (actual percentage of turnover) calculated as follow: "A#X = A#X.S#ACT / A#Turnover.S#ACT * 100".
Is there a way to avoid aggregation by customs and icp (without loosing customs/icp details)? That is, is it possible to get the same results as with dynamic account?
(Avoiding roll-up through entities would be not a problem)
Hope I did manage to explain.
Thanks for your attention.
Andrea

Hi Darshana,
thanks for your replay.
Indeed at parent account would not be a problem because the percentage factor (turnover) is still the same, consider the following:
Act
Act_P
Turnover
100
100%
materials-1
(10)
(10%)
materials-2
(10)
(10%)
materials-3
(10)
(10%)
Total Materials
(30)
(30%)
It is possible to have the same result in FR but there would be another limit. Imagine to desing a report with accounts at rows and entities at columns. If you specify each entity you easly get the result. But if you want to leave free the user to choose an entity and have the percentage for each children of the entity choosen running the report, column formula does not work. That's why I'm try to implement ACT_P scenario. The same proble exists with the calculation of diferrence % (Budget/Actual -1).
Thanks anyway for your time
Regards
Andrea

Financial Reporting 11.1.2.1 Page Dimension

I am using FR 11.1.2.1 and connected to Planning. When I selected two dimensions in the page and preview the reports, the two page dimensions will be "combined" in one page filter. For example, if I set up Year and Period in the page, it will be FY11-Jan, FY11-Feb...etc. Is there a way we can keep the two dimensions separated as two filters? Thank you.
Jerry

Hi Mehmet,
Thank you for your response. Sorry I forgot to mention that we were connecting to Planning, not Essbase. I recalled that this problem doesn't exist in the FR 9.1, but for some reasons it happened in FR 11.1.2. I will check the link you provided to see if there is any connection.
By the way, do you happen to know if it's possible to separate the page filters defined in the FR? For example, I would like to have Year and Period as two different filters, not combined as one showing FY12-Jan, FY12-Feb...etc. Thank you in advance!

Merge jpgs into a single pdf, but page dimensions? how to set...?

I have merged a number of jpgs into a single pdf but for some reason it ends up being a strange page dimension - 23.6 in x 30.6 in. The jpgs were saved at a resolution so that they might print an 8.5 x 11 at 200 dpi. Is there a place you can set these dimensions? I know it is quite easy to still make it print on a letter sized sheet but the ppl who I am sending the dosument to might be thrown off by the dimensions.

I had a difficult time finding the answer on the web. Finally found a forum with my answer to share with others facing the same issue. Last entry worked for me.

Financial Reporting Sorting with page dimensions

I had a report that was sorting account by description, in ascending order.
However, then I changed it and added the Entity Dimension into the Hierarchy and it removed the Sorting. I cant get it to sort again.
Is this a function of FR that if there are page dimensions you cant custom sort, or is there something that I am missing.
Any help would be great
Thanks

Position Page Dimension in FR

In Financial Reporting (9.3.1), when i create a report with a page dimension, in the html version of the report, the page drop-down is always in the middle of the page. Is there a way to move and position this page drop-down to some other places, for example, the top-left corner or top-right corner?
Thanks

Hi
If you are asking what I think you are asking, i.e. "how can I get a PDF for just the 1 page that I have selected from the page dimension in a Financial Reporting Report rather than getting a PDF with a page for each member in the page dimension" then I'm afraid you can't.
FR sees members on the page dimension as part of the report and this has several consequences:
1. When you run the report you may notice it takes longer (particularly if there are a lot of members on the page) as data is retrieved for all members selected on the page dimension so that you can then quickly change from one to another without having to run further queries against the database.
2. You cannot then produce a seperate PDF for a specific member from the page dimension.
Have you tried moving the dimension from the page to the POV? You can only select a single member at a time in the POV and whilst this has similar opposite implications to those above I tend to find it works better and there is only one page when you convert to PDF.
Hope this helps

Planning menus driven off of the Page dimension controls in Smart View

Apologies if this question is answered but I simply couldn't find an answer on the web, or in OTN, or on Oracle Support, or even (gasp) in the docs.
With that preamble...
I have a Planning form with popup/right click menus that, in a web browser -- IE9 in this case, can be called by right clicking on the row headers (or, with great difficulty in 11.1.2.2) the itsy-bitsy little Page dimension drop down triangles. Some (most) of the menus use the Planning Required Parameters feature to read row or page dimension members to pass the selected member as context to the new form.
So what about Smart View? Ah yes, in Smart View the row header right click allows the menu that uses Required Parameters to drive, for instance, Employee Detail for an Account (Planning passes the Account to a new form). It works just fine. This is the same as IE9.
But I simply cannot figure out how to make Smart View's POV display a popup/right click menu and of course pass that dimension member to the new form. Beyond reading the above sources, I tried just about everything i could think of in Smart View. Is it possible? If not, this would be a major bummer because the planners are not exactly in love with the ADF interface but do rather like Smart View.
Fwiw, it is Excel 2010 and Smart View 11.1.2.2.300 (Build 070).
Thanks,
Cameron Lackpour

I've not seen someone using a menu in POV (There could be valid reason for you doing it).
11.1.2.2 If you are using an dimension in POV as required parameter IE shows it in POV, Smartview is not showing that option at all. (Right click on Form shows blank)
I tried it on 11.1.2.3 to see something got fixed there (or updated) and found that right click on row shows the menu item (POV). (You don't need to right click on POV)

What is a page dimension?

What is a page dimension?
What is POV dimension?

A page filter holds filters of dimensions members for a given pivot table analysis.
When analyzing multi-dimensional databases you're often reporting in pivot tables. Hyperion tends to use a Column, Row, Pages and POV pivot table layout.
POV is a feature that filters the report like pages, but follows the user around as they open other reports.

Can I pass the selected member at page dimension to form business rule?

I have a business rule which will be executed when the form get loaded, the business rule is very complex, so I want to narrow down the calculation by passing the selected member at page dimension to the business rule.
For example, I have year as page dimension, and I only want to calculate the selected year at one time? How can I do it?
I know runtime prompt, but I don't think it's a good way, since you need to select again.
Thanks
Tony

You can use a variable and a run time prompt.
You can set the business rule options in planning to "Use Members on Form" and "Hide Run time prompt"
This way the page/pov member will be passed into the business and into the variable.

Selectively pulling members in dataform based on a page dimension

Hi,
I have an entity dimension having business units and location dimension having cost centers. for example,
I placed --> just to show you the hierarchy properly and has no meaning to the dimension member. Hyperion planning version 11
Entity(gen 1)
-->X1(gen 2)
-->X2(gen 2)
----->X3(gen 3)
-------->X4(gen 4)
-------->X5(gen 4)
----->X6(gen 3)
-------->X7(gen 4)
-------->X8(gen4)
Location(gen 1)
-->Y1(gen 2)
----->Y2(gen 3)
----->Y3(gen 3)
-->Y4(gen 2)
----->Y5(gen 3)
----->Y6(gen 3)
and when we do allocation, user will select the member in entity dimension which is a page dimension in a data form.
Is it possible when he selects X4 it should only bring Y2 and Y3 from location dimension and when the user selects X7 it should only bring Y5 and Y6.
If my question is not clear, please let me know. Appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.
Sai

Hi,
Assuming you have locations* on rows and months and accounts* on columns for example, prepare and load below data for all entity-location combinations to essbase.
Entity Location Period Data
X4 Y2 BegBalance 1
X4 Y3 BegBalance 1
Make sure you load this to begbalance and a dummy account which I assume is not used in budget data collection.
Place Begbalance as the first column on the form. Check "Suppress Missing Block" selection from form edit menu.
Now whenever you change the entity from page, only associated locations should be visible in the form.
Cheers,

Hi,
When you view the output from the report run in batch you are presumably looking at the spool output. Because you are viewing a preview of what is sent to the printer the spool applies page breaks based on the printer parameters. When you run the report in dialog you view the report on the screen, and the spool is not involved, so no page breaks.
If you print your report in dialog then review the spool you'll find it has the page break just as the background run has.

Nick

If it is related to visibility you can choose Draft Mode or change the Page size.

Change page dimensions to match an object

Hello. If I bring in an object (e.g. a photograph), is there a simple way to have the page dimensions match the object?
Currently I copy the dimensions of the photograph, select the page tool, select the page, and manually enter the new dimensions.
Thanks!

You're better off just selecting the bunch of images and Combine them Acrobat.
What you can do is go into Acrobat
File>Combine>Merge files into a single PDF.
If the images are huge - then I suggest running a Batch action on the folder of images to save them to a new folder - perhaps reducing the size something more screen friendly, perhaps 400 px in height and at whatever resolution is appropriate.
Basics of that are here: http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/digitalphotography/l/blps_batch.htm
I don't think there's much need for InDeisgn here at all.

Referring to Page dimension in smartview using VB

Hi,
Is it possible to refer to one or more of the page dimension member using VBA code. The data form is opened in smart view.
Version is 11.1.1.3
Regards,
Ragav.

Thanks for the replies.
@jpaul
I actually ended up removing the PageSetup active area section, but now, no, there are no errors from the vi or from the AcitveX nodes when I highlight execution order. I say that it isnt working because the page setup properties are not changing in the Excel file.
Yes, I have been lazy about not closing ActiveX references, is there any disadvantage other than digging a memory hole?
@drewsky
I have alot of things coded and working, this is the only issue so far. Its too late to turn back to templates
