BPC 10.0 NW - Black data cells

Hello experts,
we experienced quite a strange behaviour of our BPC webreports. Some of our reports show black data cells (see screenshot below). The same reports executed in BPC for Excel look perfect.
[Screenshot|http://img131.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=438462475_BPCError_122_453lo.jpg]
The column header are greyed out in the screen.
Anyone any suggestions?
Thank you in advance,
Karsten

Hi Karsten,
I deleted the environmenshell by running the program UJS_ACTIVATE_CONTENT, it was deleted successfully, but when I again ran the same program with selection as all the remaining options apart from delete/clean the environment (i.e . activate the content, activate the environment, etc), it gave an error - UJT_EXCEPTION, Message Type I, Message Number - 109, There is no environment dependent entity to be imported.
When I check in rsa1, infoarea corresponding to environmentshell is not found at all.
Did you get such an error message while activating the environmentshell again?
Which option did you use clean the environment or delte the environment?
Any help on the error appreciated.

Excel sheet has modified data cells error - do you want to submit

Using smartview in office 2007 I often get trapped in a loop where each time I modify any data on the excel sheet I get the error "Excel sheet has modified data cells. Do you want to submit the modified data cells before proceeding?". Regardless if I choose yes or no I basically have to start a new instance of excel to clear the error.
For the most part I never use member select rather just type the members I want freehand in the excel workbook. Seems like the error arises after I insert or delete a row or column and then try to update the page.
If I "reset" the connection it seems to help but not all the time.

This may be the same issue as you are experiencing "When Trying to Copy Cells Between Excel Tabs Get Message "Excel Sheet has modified data cells do you want to submit the modified data?" [ID 1301092.1]"
The document is on "My Oracle Support"

How to associate a fixed $ value to a date cell?

I'm trying to keep track of payments made, according to date.
I have one column where I enter dates.
Can I associate these date cells to a fixed $ value, so that each time I enter a new date the SUM cell will automatically update?
I hope so...
Thanks!

HI cp,
By "associate these cells to a fixed $ value," I assume you mean that fixed value will be added to the sum as each date in sentered.
Here are two examples, one showing the fixed amount in the adjacent column when the date (or anything) is entered in column A, the other showing only the total.
Both use a second table to hold the fixed value, making it easy to edit, if necessary.
Formulas:
(Method 1)
B2, and filled down to B10: =IF(LEN(A)>0,Fixed value :: A$2,"")
LEN(A) returns the length (in character) of the entry in the cell in this row of column A. If anything is entered, the IF condition is TRUE, and IF returns the value in A2 of the smaller table. If nothing has been entered, the condition is FALSE, and IF returns a null string to the cell.
B11: =SUM(B)
Row 11 is a Footer row, and is not included in the cells to be summed.
(Method 2)
D11: =Fixed value :: A2*COUNTA($A)
COUNTA counts the number of entries in column A of the Main table, then multiplies the fixed value in the small table by the result of the count and returns the result.
This formula may be placed in any cell.
(Both methods)
The cell reference to Fixed Value::A2 (or Fixed Value::A$2) may be replaced with the actual value, and the second table eliminated, if desired.
Regards,
Barry

BPC Error while loading master data from SAP BW

Hello Guru,
I have NW BPC 7.5 installed on BW server. Currently i have started to work on one application where i have to load master data first. I am loading master data for cost center.
I looked into the process chain "BPC: Import BW InfoObject master data" and i found that few processes are in GREEN color and few are in RED color (Display). is that correct or not ? then as per some of the thread i went to "BPC: Convert BW infoObject master data" --> SOURCE_TYPE = IP and added one parameter "FORMULA_FILE_NO". Then i saved this process chain and activated it.
I created transformation file in BPC and it got created successfully but while i try to load packages it throws me error.
Q. Do i need to have entire process chain with all processes in GREEN to have the master data in BPC ?
Q. Do i need to activate any BADI's for this or not ?
I appreciate your help in advance. I trie

ADF calendar date cell background color change

Hi,
I am new to jdeveloper / ADF.
I coded per the below calender sample in my jdeveloper and it runs fine.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/calendar-091799.html
The current date cell shows in yellow color background. How/where can I change that color.
Also the small calendar look up for the start/end date-time setting allows the user set the start/end time upto HH/MIN/seconds. How can I remove the seconds
Thanks for all your help.

You can create a new skin for your application and use the following selector which we deliver..
.AFCalendarTodayBackground:alias
background-color: blue;
ALternatively, you can use the specific selector
af|calendar af|calendar::day-of-week:today {
background-color: blue;
You can also see other ways of customizing your look and feel of the calendar component by referencing the hosted demo for skinning the calendar component.

How to deactivate the context menu for data cells in web reports

Hello,
we would like to have the data cells (for example: values in euro) without context menu. I mean, right now, when users navigate in web reports and stop with a mouse over the data cell, text like "Context menu for 5.000 Highlighted" appears. Especially users don't want to see the exception cells with this information like
"Context menu for 6.000 critical 4".
Is it possible to deactivate this context info?
Thanks and Regards,
Nuran Adal
Message was edited by: Nuran Adal

Hello Nuran,
I guess you want to disable the Tooltip and not the ContextMenu. Anyway, use the table interface for it.
Have a look at paramter C_CELL_CONTENT
In Method DATA_CELL.
This one contains strings like:
30,0
Rebuild this String to:
30,0
Kind Regards,
Alican

BPC 7.5 will extract data from flat file or directly from cube

Hi,
i have a doubt plz give me a solution.
1) previously our BPC 7.0 team extracted data from BI 7.0 through flat file, but now they have upgraded to BPC 7.5 i want to know whether BPC 7.5 will extract directly from our BW infocube or not.
2) please let me know how data extracted from BPC 7.5.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
If your import file has duplicate record in it then the Status of your DM package for import ends with warning, where all the records in your file might have got accepted but only one last data rows amoung the duplicate rows might have got submitted to the system.
The duplicate records will be rejected and you can see the list of duplicate records as well in the DM package status report.
Like Nilanjan said you can use Append DM Pacakge to submit all duplicate records aswell into the system. But here the problem is it appends the data in flat file with data available in the system.
Say you have 100 for account1 in the system and you run Append DM Package having values duplicate values for account1 say 100 and 200. So after the Append Package execution you will have 100100200= 400 for account1.
So for Append DM package to work in the same way as import, run clear package before executing the Append package.
Hope this helps,

Edit JTable Date Cell, press Enter, the Time Cell changes to GMT time!

Has anyone seen this strange behavior? I try to edit a Date Cell in JTable (orig. value 10/02/2000) and change it to (10/03/2000), I press Enter. But, the value of my Time Cell in the next column, same row which I never edited (orig. value 00:05:00) changes to approximately my system time in GMT (16:28:48).
This is an excerpt from my TableModel which get called from setValueAt():1734 javax.swing.JTable, JTable.java. In the code below, the debug statement prints out:
row, col = 0,0
Value in SubTableModel = 10-02-2000 16:28:48
Value should be "10-02-2000" since I did not edit the time cell at all. And why is row and col both zero?
public void setValueAt(Object value, int row, int col) {
try {
((ITableCellAdapter)adapters.get(col)).setData(getRow(row),col);
System.out.println("row, col = " + row + col);
System.out.println("Value in SubTableModel = " + value.toString());
((ITableCellAdapter)adapters.get(col)).setValue(value);
catch (PropertyVetoException badSet) {
System.out.println("could not set value");
fireTableCellUpdated(row,col);
How can I force it to set the date cell's new value only and leave the time cell alone?
I've also seen that sometimes my date entry gets lost, the old value still showing, what am I doing wrong? I've seen a bunch of bug parade listings about terminating edits within a JTable being buggy, is this related?
Any help on this is most appreciated!

Quick way to assign table header IDs to data cells?

Acrobat X (10.1.9)
For accessibility of tables with complex headers, is there a quick way to assign header IDs to data cells associated with them? I haven't found any faster way than going one cell at a time.
All tags already have an ID, this question is how to quickly assign IDs of the header cells to all data cells in a row or column.
Even better, is there a feature or plug-in that looks at a table's column and row spanning, and automatically assigns headers to all data cells?
I've used Table Inspector in Acrobat, and a several-years-old version of the CommonLook plug-in. Both of these allow you to set various properties to all cells in a selection. And they act like they happily set header IDs for multiple cells, but after clicking OK and looking at cell properties, TI doesn't set it for any of them, and CL only sets it for the first cell that was selected.
I prepare PDFs of scientific reports for Section 508 compliance. Often they are hundreds of pages long and have scores of large tables. Some clients insist on complex headers. Going cell by cell is astonishingly time-consuming.

Hi Danny,
The table editor in Acrobat XI is improved in some respects over X but still behaves exactly as you describe on table IDs – it pretends to allow IDs to be set for multiple cells but they do not stick.
You may want to evaluate the current CommonLook. It reportedly excels at tagging complex tables. I evaluated it quite some time ago and was underwhelmed, but I understand it has improved.
You might also be able to cheat a bit on some tables, using alt text (see raeben3’s post here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1188165) or adding blank cells to the table tag structure to “regularize” the table. In other cases you may be able to deviate from the visual table representation and tag the content as a series of sub-headings and smaller, regular tables or lists. In some cases you will have to bite the bullet and use spanning properties and header IDs.
Hope this helps.

When we get the actual data in BPC for planning, is the data consolidated

I had a question regarding Planning. When we get the actual data in BPC for planning, is the data consolidated? Do we need to run the consolidation business rules( IC Booking, Matching, IC Eliminations) on the data before we can use it for planning? Per my understanding we have to run Currency Conversion on this...correct?
Also, where do I get my actual data from? Does ECC/ Source system have data from all entities( CHQ, Region and Countries)?
Please help!
Thanks in advance

Hi Kimi,
In a hierarchical structure, the data is always loaded in to the base level, and the data is automatically rolled up to its parents.
The currency conversion will also take place at the base level, and as mentioned earlier, the converted data will also be rolled up as per the hierarchy.
The heading of this thread says planning. So, ideally, there wont be any legal (or statutory) consolidation. You might use the US elimination however, for eliminating the intercompany transactions, if any.
The planning can be done as zero based (wherein the user has to enter the planned data manually from scratch) or non-zero based (wherein the planned data of previous year is copied and the user can change the data as required).
The flow of events cannot be suggested by us. It has to be discussed with the business to understand how do they do the planning.
Hope this helps.

Calendars - aligning pictures within date cells

When inserting pictures on certain dates ie on October 1st, normally you can double click the picture to align it properly within the date cell. With some pictures, you double click on the picture on that date but you don't get the popup window to customise the alignment. From the moment you try to align one picture and it doesn't work, then the following issues begin: you can't remove this picture at all - a grey box remains permenantly on that date cell. Also the calendar is bound to crash if you click the Gallery to look for more pictures and then click back the calendar you were working on, iphoto will loop indefinitely with message "Loading Calendar... ". Then you have to close iPhoto and when you go back in iPhoto, the Calendar has disappeared. You have to start over! It happened to me 6 times.

Hitting detele or dragging a pic to a different cell normally works but not once you start getting the problem. Dragging the problematic pic to other cells simply leaves a grey cell behind and puts the pic on the new cell. And if you try dragging to a new then same process happens. I was trying dates 1 October and 18 October. But then i played around with more dates and there were problems too. I suspect the problem is related not with the date but with certain pictures. I made a new calendar, didn't insert any pictures apart from that particular pic and tried to align it - still it wouldn't let me. That pic was taken with an older Nikon Coolpix 4500 while the ones that do work are taken with a Canon EOS 350D (digital rebel xt).
Any other clues?

Bpc 7.5 - not sending data on a specific application

Hi I use SAP BPC 7.5 SP7 patch 1 with Microsoft Sql Server 2008.
I moved my AppSet from a server 32bit to a server 64bit.
On 32bit server everything works fine.
On 64bit server (64bit configurations written in BPC installation guide applied + no error in Server Manager > DIagnostic): I can't send data on a specific application I have.
On 64bit server: I precessed all dimensions and all applications and then I even optimize. Nothing change.
I have to applications: A and B.
On Application A I can send data correctly.
On application B in my Input schedules when I send data: everything seems to work fine but afer data refresh on my sheet the value disappear and nothing is written into FactWB table. No error displayed.
Those input scheules are the same I have and working on 32 bit server.
No errors into Windows event viewer so... what can I check or do more? How can I fix it?
Edited by: Francesco Andolfi on Feb 10, 2012 7:56 PM

Hi Francesco,
have you tried modify application on B?
have tried if you can send data through a new simple input schedule?
Kind regards

BPC 10.0 NW - Journal data when clearing the data

Hej Gurus,
I have a quite simple question:
When a journal i created and posted in the system, the journal is stored in a specific table for the model, and the data is stored in the cube. What is going to happen with the journals, if we clear the cube for all data, both journal and non-journal data. Will the journals still be posted in the journal table?
The reason is, we have some scattered bad data that we would like to have cleared, and we want to know, if we can delete all data and import everything again without the journal postings are gone.
Best regards,
Mikkel Kristensen

Hi Mikkel
Journal stored in Journal Table along with BP Cube. Any point of time you want to delete due to Bad data. First you have to Unpost Journals that means No Effect in Journals or No Financials update. Then you can clear BPC Cube data.
When you are ready for Journals just simply Post from Unpost Journals. This process will ensure your data integrity.
Otherwise you will have to face again bad data issue.
In Short :
When you decide to Delete Data from Cube:
1. Unpost Journals from Post
2. Delete Data from BPC Cube( from Backend)
3, Re-load Transactional Data
4. Post Journals from Unpost
Hope this will help you
Thanks
