BPC 7.5NW consolidation error

Hi,
We are using BPC 7.5 NW version (7.50.04). We changed standard dimension 'GROUPS' to dimension type 'R' and included it in our legal applications.
We are using below logic to run both currency conversion and legal consolidation.
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
      CATEGORY = %C_CATEGORY_SET%
      GROUP = %GROUPS_SET%
      TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
      RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
*RUN_PROGRAM CONSOLIDATION
    CATEGORY = %C_CATEGORY_SET%
    GROUP = %GROUPS_SET%
    TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
The standard data manager package with process chain 'LEGAL_CONSOLIDATION' fails with error message 'Member "G_CG2" not exist'. G_CG2 is a member of GROUP dimension. When we executed the below logic (with hardcoded variables) in BW transaction UJKT, it worked fine and posted values correctly.
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
      CATEGORY = C_100
      GROUP = G_CG2
      TID_RA = 2008.DEC
      RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
*RUN_PROGRAM CONSOLIDATION
    CATEGORY = C_100
    GROUP = G_CG2
    TID_RA = 2008.DEC
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
Any idea, why system is not able to recognize 'G_CG2' when we use data manager package? In BPC 7.5NW, is it mandatory to use both 'R' and 'G' type dimensions? SAP Help has different contradictory views !!!

Hi Nilanjan,
We are using 'GROUPS' dimension of type 'R'.
The above dimension has members of both GROUPS and CURRENCY (ex: G_CG1, G_CG2, LC, USD etc).
1) Run currency translation for 'USD'. The logic works fine if i change it as follows:
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
CATEGORY = %C_CATEGORY_SET%
CURRENCY = %GROUPS_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
2) Run currency translation for 'G_CG2'. The logic works if i change it as follows:
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
CATEGORY = %C_CATEGORY_SET%
GROUP = %GROUPS_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
3) Run COI for 'G_CG2'. The logic works if i change it as follows:
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
CATEGORY = %C_CATEGORY_SET%
GROUP = %GROUPS_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
4) The logic is executed successfully from BW UJKT if i hardcode the values for 'GROUPS' dimension.

BPC 7.5NW SP08: "unknown MDX error" message for simple dimension formula

Hi everyone!!
We are facing many different issues concerning dimension formulas and
script logic. Maybe it's something related to SP08. For instance,
consider the following:
- there is a dimension named P_Account, with members Price, SalesCost,
and others
- there is a dimension named P_Product, which consists of a hierarchy,
for instance: Prod1 with two children, Prod1A and Prod1B
We want to set the following dimension formula in P_Product for Prod1 member:
IIF([P_Account].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID") = "Price", Null, 1)
that is, we wanted to try to be able to avoid summing Price, returning
Null for (Price, Prod1). Later we would try to replace "1" with the
appropriate formula to sum children of Prod1 for all other members of
P_Account. The result is an odd error: "MDX statement error: unknown MDX
error" (or something similar, since I get the error message in portuguese).
We have spent almost two days studying alternatives in SDN Forum, blogs,
google, etc, trying to find a reason for the error but couldn't find it.
Could anyone help on this one?
Thanks!
Luigi

Hi everyone!
After contacting SAP, we were asked to try to reproduce the error in APSHELL. I did the following:
1) created another application set, copying APSHELL, named it TESTAPPSET;
2) added two members to dimension P_ACCT (ID, ACCTYPE, SCALING, RATETYPE):
   (PRICE, INC, Y, END)
   (SALESCOST, INC, Y, END)
3) saved to server and processed P_ACCT dimension successfuly
4) added a UD dimension copied from P_Activity, named P_Product
5) deleted all members of P_Product, processed the dimension sucessfuly
6) added FORMULA property to P_Product, with size 200
7) added three members to P_Product (ID, PARENTH1)
   (Prod1, "")
   (Prod1A, Prod1)
   (Prod1B, Prod1)
8) saved to server and processed the dimension successfuly
9) edited P_Product members and added the following as FORMULA for Prod1:
IIF([P_ACCT].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID") = "PRICE", Null, 1)
Result was sucess!!
10) edit P_Product again and removed the formula, saved to server and processed dimension successfuly;
11) created an Application named SALES, type Financial Report, copied from PLANNING with dimensions
12) edit dimensions, removed P_Activity and added P_Product to the list
13) went back to step (9) and tried to add the formula again, saved to server and processed P_Product dimension. Result was success again!!
So I imagined the issue might be caused by the user I was log in with. I went back to our application set, logged in as BPC_SYSADMIN and tried to set the formula again and it didn't work. User was not the problem.
Since I had tried all the above creating everything with all UPPERCASE, I decided to try the following Formula
IIF([P_ACCOUNT].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID") = "Price", Null, 1)
that is, P_ACCOUNT instead of P_Account. Result: success in processing dimension!!! And the formula worked as expected when I opened an Input Schedule to test it.
When I check my dimension list in BPC Admin it says P_Account (mixed case), instead of P_ACCOUNT (all uppercase) since it was the way we created it.
So, I spent 1hour to do the whole test, but it worked. I sent two questions/requests for correction or improvement to SAP:
I) which case should be used in formulas? given I see P_Account in Dimension list, how should I know that I should write formulas with P_ACCOUNT, all uppercase?
II) could BPC provide more descriptive error messages when processing dimensions and validating script logic? a simple error message such as "unidentified command or reference at P_Account" or anything similar would have saved us 4,5 days of work! it's a lot!
Thank you guys for your support!!

BPC 7.5NW Report Issues When Requesting Year To Date Data

Dynamic reports built with 2 row expansions (Cost Ctr, Account) up to 3 columns (not expansions, set to different categories with excel formulas for variance calculations...Act vs. Bud for example) result in error messages (error retrieving data and another related error messge) when requesting YTD data vs. Periodic data. The report runs fast and properly with Periodic measure. When running with the YTD measure, attempts to reduce the report data volume by removing comparative categories and removing formatting (after ranges) still results in YTD data retrieve errors.
Has anyone else had similar issues with BPC 7.5NW, SP9, and YTD data not pulling into reports? What are the common causes for issues with YTD data retrieval? Given the design by SAP of the BPC NW product and promotion of using BPC for both Periodic and YTD data, should I expect this report to work properly, meaning that I can get output with YTD data without long runtimes or errors that result in terminating the report? Thank you.

Using a variable in an allocation routine in SAP BPC 7.5NW

Below is a very simple BPC allocation routine I wrote. The data originally sits on a dummy profit center and needs to be allocated to all itu2019s relevant profit centers. These relevant profit centers can be derived from the profit center hierarchy (BPC_ + ID of entity).
When I hardcode the Profitcenter and the entity, the routine works (as below). But what I really want is that it works variable as in the line that I commented out. Any idea whether this could work (BPC 7.5NW) ? If not, I am afraid I need to go to ABAP, which is really a pitty
//ALLOCATION PROCEDURE CONVERSION RATE
//=====================================
*RUNALLOCATION
*FACTOR=1
*DIM SEBACCOUNT WHAT=CONV_RATE; WHERE=<<<; USING=<<< ; TOTAL=<<<
//*DIM PROFCENT WHAT=DUMPC; WHERE=BAS(BPC_"%ENTITY_SET%");USING=<<<; TOTAL=<<<

*DIM ENTITY WHAT=OKB; WHERE=<<<; USING=<<< ; TOTAL=<<<
*ENDALLOCATION
Thanks
Nico

Gersh,
It works now. I have implemented the below code (ENTITY needed to contain the variable as well). The relationship profitcenter and entity is very important as it derives the relevant profitcenters from the profit center hierarchy (e.g. all profitcenters under the legalentity node).
//ALLOCATION PROCEDURE CONVERSION RATE
//=====================================
*FOR %ENT% = %ENTITY_SET%

*DIM CATEGORY WHAT=FCSTCUR; WHERE=<<<; USING=<<< ; TOTAL=<<<
*DIM ENTITY WHAT=%ENT%; WHERE=<<<; USING=<<<; TOTAL=<<<

Transport of Security objects in BPC 7.5NW

As a part of NW BPC transports, changed the entries in table UJT_TRANS_CHG. For the 1st transport (from DEV to QA)wanted to transport ALL objects including Security and Teams. So, selected 'Development' for ALL objects under this table.
After the transport collection via tcode UJBPCTR and importing into QA, found that 'Users', 'Teams' and 'Task Profiles' did NOT transport. 'Member Access Profiles' did transport to QA.
I expected 'Users', 'Teams' and 'Task Profiles' also to be transported. We are on SAP BPC 7.5NW, SP4.
Am I missing something here ?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi
we had the same problem and didn't know if Security objects could be transported, but we found the BPC User Mass Management Tool.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/d0cdbccf-0def-2d10-298d-f4223de9a6ed&overridelayout=true
This could help you to export the security objects in DEV and import the objects in PRD.
The transports you need for the ZUJE_MASS_USER_MGMT Programm you found on page 46 in the document mentioned above.
Please let me know if we could help you.

Set of Business Rules - BPC 10.0 Consolidation

Hi experts,
I´ll need help to work with two scenarios on BPC 10.0 (Consolidation) as following: 01- The scenario 01 has four entities: 1001, 1002, 1003 and 1004 and four business rules: ELIM01, ELIM02, ELIM03 and ELIM04. I need only rules ELIM01 and ELIM02 are performed for entities 1001 and 1002 and rules ELIM03 and ELIM04 are performed for entities 1003 and 1004. Is it possible in BPC? How can I do it? 02 - The scenario 02 has two entities: 1005 and 1006 and I´ll need to perform a set of rules with business rules ELIM05, ELIM06 and ELIM07 until 2014.03 and I´ll also need to perform other set of rules with ELIM05, ELIM06 and ELIM08 from 2014.04. In thi scenario I want to create a new set of business rules without the rule ELIM07 but I don't want to delete this. Is it possible in BPC? Can I work with two or more set of rules in BPC? How can I do it? Is it possible work with time dependent on set of rules?
Thanks a lot! Madhuk

Hi,
01
The scenario 01 has four entities: 1001, 1002, 1003 and 1004 and four business rules: ELIM01, ELIM02, ELIM03 and ELIM04. I need only rules ELIM01 and ELIM02 are performed for entities 1001 and 1002 and rules ELIM03 and ELIM04 are performed for entities 1003 and 1004.
Are we talking about the eliminations and adjustments business rule? Those rules have an entity property filter which you can use.
02
The scenario 02 has two entities: 1005 and 1006 and I´ll need to perform a set of rules with business rules ELIM05, ELIM06 and ELIM07 until 2014.03 and I´ll also need to perform other set of rules with ELIM05, ELIM06 and ELIM08 from 2014.04. In thi scenario I want to create a new set of business rules without the rule ELIM07 but I don't want to delete this?
Are we talking about the eliminations and adjustments business rules? They work based on the method based multipliers. So one possible solution would be to have different methods and therefore different method based multipliers in your ownership cube.

thanks for replying..
No this issue doesn't persists from Day one.We were able to do consolidation.
There were a few updates to my system,I am mentioning them:
Patch apply:
1.Patch no:6880880-10.2 version for updating opatch version 10.2.0.5.1
2.Patch no:9314073
The above two mentioned patches are the prequisite to apply PATCH 10051655,,We havent applied this patch as of now ,because after applying patch no 9314073 we cant see the changes in workspace.
Now once again to resolve our consolidation error we have applied the patch fix 11.1.1.3.50 but still there is no consolidation.
Still it shows the same error.
pls suggest

EC-CS, BPC, BOBJ Financial Consolidation Compare

What major difference would be there between EPM solutions "BPC" and "Financial Consolidation" as far as consolidation goes? What added advantage do we get compared the original EC-CS in SAP? How long will EC-CS can be used or supported by SAP?

ECCS is supposed to out of active maintenance around 2009. But this was the news some time back. But one customer configured for go live in ECCS this November.2009.
BOBJ concoliation will be merged with BPC landscape soon. This is pure business objects way of doing consolidation and SAP bought the BO and trying to merge it with BPC product.
BPC is the wayforward for SAP...not only they are maintaining BPC's original format of outlooksoft with minor modification, in BPC7NW release they inegrated with BI/BW. In BPC 7.5/8 NW version they are going to integrate the BO fully to BPC.
Hope this answers your questions Sridhar.

BPC and Financial consolidation

Dear All,
I would like to understand what is difference between BPC and Financial consolidation.
I have a client who wants to implement only consolidation in system and we would like to know which product to implement BPC or Financial consolidation.
Is there any advantage/ disadvantage if we go ahead with BPC and not Financial consolidation.
Regards,

One major difference which BPC has over their competettor product is
"BPC is a unifed application for finacial planning , forcasting , budgeting & consolidation."
if u thinking to use other functions apart from consolidation like planning etc ... then BPC is the go forward path for u

BPC 7.5NW - Client SP6 - Unable to log in to clients on older versions

REPOSTED UNDER BPC 7.5NW FORUM
Edited by: Sunil Narahari on Mar 7, 2011 2:04 PM

I'm having a similar problem with 10.5.2 Leopard server and client -- no Tiger involved.
I have the green light on the login screen and am able to log in as an OD administrator, but regular OD users are rejected with a login window shake. I never specified any home directories because they were auto-generated on machines locally when I logged in with the OD administrator.
Apple phone support were able to duplicate my problem and had me do an Enterprise Data Capture. Apple engineers were also able to duplicate my problem. Here is some of what phone support emailed me:
+I got a reply from engineering. They said they were able to duplicate the issue with a 10.5 up to a 10.5.2 client with no home directory specified. The only current workaround is to set up an automount location for home directories and specify a home location place for the users. The clients do not have to be bound to the server, they just need to have a home folder directory specified.+
+Engineering is aware of the issue and are working on it. For now this is the only workaround we have.+
I haven't had a chance to try this Apple workaround, but maybe it will help you.

Hi George,
did you find any solution for the problem? I get a similar Error: "Public member 'ClearParameterNodes' on type 'XMLCreator' not found" when I try to start the Admin Client on a Windows XP system. It works perfect when I start the Admin Client on the windows server with the BPC 7.0 installation.

Measures:YTD behavior in BPC 7.5NW

All,
Has anyone come across this?
When I execute EVDRE and use measures, my PERIODIC and QTD are working fine. But YTD is working incorrectly and the behaves just like QTD. Account I am doing is for EXP account. I am on BPC 7.5NW Pack 4. Any help is appreciated?

Hi Danny,
You can try changing the text description of your application in the admin console and resaving it, which should reset the delivered measure formulas. However, I wonder if there is something wrong with your time hierarchy. How is your Time dimension hierarchy set up?

BPC 10.0 MS Version - Error when performing consolidation - Error FX-300 nothing extract from Fact - CLCFXTrans

Dear All,
In BPC 10.0 Microsoft Version, I am performing consolidation. Running consolidation pckg was successful initially. Suddenly, it fails - giving the following error message:
Error FX-300 nothing extract from Fact - CLCFXTrans
I believe the above error happens during currency conversion which happens to the final consolidation process.
Pls. help to fix this error message.
Thank you.
Regards,
Peri

Hi Peri,
If you have access to back end data base then please check one table that is clcFXTrans_Consolidation (clcFXTrans_model name)
All currency conversion rule are stored in the table. Actually there are two tables you can check for currency conversion rule.
1) clcFXtrans_Consolidation(clcFXtrans_model name)--> store currency conversion rule
2) clcFXtransh_Consolidation(clcFXtransh_model name) store rate type
write a query on that table and check,if nothing is their then validate all rule again.

BPC 7.0: Consolidation in financial application but with errors

Hello
Currently we consolidate with an FXConsol data package in a financial application type. We did not want to create a consolidation application type, as any eliminations are not necessary. But adding all company values up to a group value is essential.
However, putting all numbers together with the FXConsol package is working, but nevertheless the log details show an error - no instruction retrieved from ELIM table.
Is it possible to let FXConsol finish without showing an error in a financial application? Or is it better to use FXTrans with an additional formula?
Thanks for your help.
Melanie

Hi Melanie,
There is some inconsistency which has come up during the entire process. If you can please let me know the exact steps you have followed, that would be great.
The main problem, I see, is with the argument list of the SPRUNCONSO. Check the parameters of SPRUNCONSO in the database and match it with the arguments using which you are invoking the stored procedure. There is some mismatch between these 2 places.
Since the requirement, based on your previous post, was just to have another copy, I would suggest you to create copy of the specific function and rename it, instead of creating the copy of the entire .lgl file.
1. In your script logic, change the statement RunConsolidation(parameters) to RunCon(parameters).
2. In the file AAG_System_Library.lgl, copy from
*SUB Runconsolidation(......
*ENDSUB
and paste it at the end of the same file.
3. Change Runconsolidation to RunCon
4. Make the desired changes in this function.
So, this process will create a new function runcon and you can modify it as required. This function can be refered in your script file and this should work absolutely fine.
Hope this helps.
