BPC Dimension Members displayed as numbers/index in HANA tables

Hi,
I used the following post from Selva BPC tables in HANA to lookup a BPC model in HANA. However all the dimensions members are represented by numbers/index instead of the actual dimension member description. Is there a way in HANA to see the actual dimension member instead of an index value?
e.g. Category Actual is displayed as 2 and Category Plan as 3 and so on.
Please refer to the screenshot

BW also has the values in text correctly. I am not sure if only the dimension member index value is passed on to HANA.

Period dimension members display

Hi,
we have set up start period to Jan and end period to Mar for Actual /member of scenario/
in planning form we want to display only those three periods however we see all periods /other periods are read-only/.
thanks for help

How about using essbase substitution variables, for example actPeriod1 set as Jan, actPeriod2 set as Feb, actPeriod3 set as Mar, and do the same for Forecast months.
Then put these substitution variables in the form instead of the months.
Then when the months change you can just change the substitution variables and you won't have to touch the forms, the changing of the substitution variables can be scripted with maxl and batched up and scheduled.
Cheers

Looking for BPC user contacts with large numbers of dimension members

I would like to make contact with other BPC users that have multiple dimensions with dimension members in excess of 10K.
Thanks,

Hi Helene,
With 3,000 members you should not be experiencing these problems, if your report is designed properly.
I'm running BPC 5.1 SP8 on SQL 2005, with a dimension containing 22,000 members. Client PC's are typical (XP, Excel 2007, 1 or 2 gig RAM).
Using EVDRE and this dimension expanding on the rows, most reports & input schedules can expand & refresh in the range of 10 to 30 seconds.
The faster times are when I use a row expansion memberset using dimension properties, such as Active="X". The slower times are when the memberset is hierarchy-based, such as BAS.
If you're using a dynamic template (one using EVEXP for the expansion) then you should start over using EVDRE. It will be much faster, particularly if you optimize your row expansion.
It's often a good idea to add dimension properties specifically for the purpose of optimizing the report expansion, if the dimension has thousands of members. I sometimes go as far as to add properties which mimic the hierarchy (MyLevel2, MyLevel3, etc) just for this purpose.

Cannot maintain dimension members in SAP BPC

Hello, Masters in BPC
I have just create mention and want to input data, I used maintain dimension members CUSTOMER in SAP BPC but It seem not effect although I press Process dimension already and I open excel and paste data also saved them already. When I open other dimension and reopen CUSTOMER but nothing is shown.
Please give me a advice to resolve the problem.
Thanks you so much.
Best Regards
Chinh

Dear Raju,
Yes, I did it some times but nothing is happen,
I maintain dimension members, I did it as below:
- Choose maintain dimension members
- copy data from excel file and paste into the dimension
- click process dimension
Show a dialog
- Uncheck Take system offine
This task is successful.
but I go to dimension ACCOUNT in order to insert data,
I came back maintain dimension members : CUSTOMER but I see no data is displayed.
It is the same for ACCOUNT when I want to see data on that dimension
when I try one more time , I click save to server, The Error message show that : Dump Error
I reinstall BPC client and its patch but nothing to change
How can I do???
Thanks

Dimension Members in BPC is not updating

Dear Friends,
I have trasfered the values of the 0GL_ACCOUNt to the account dim of my appset in BW using the transformation and i could see the values in the BPC display dimension members.
But simillary i have created the transformation and uploaded the values of the 0Move_type to the flow dimension and am trying to view the same in the BPC but am not getting any valuess in dimension member list of the Flow dim.
I too closed and reopened the admin console. What could be the reason, kindly suggest.
Thanks
Prem

There is a task in the Action Pane from BPC Administration to Refresh client dimension members. Try it. Also try to save and process your dimension again. Finally, hate to state the obvious but make sure your DTP loaded to the right infoobject which was generated from BPC. Do you see the master data in BW from RSD1?

How to display single dimension members in Columns and rows

Item category on rows Item brand on columns, Different levels in the Item hierarchy , can it be presented as above in the pivot table ?
I have Item dimension with the below hierarchy :
Item
|- All Items
|-- CAT-Beauty Products
| |-- SEG-Skin Care
| |-- BD-Andes
| -- CAT-Beverages
| |-- SEG-Bottled Water
| |--BD-Agua Vide
| -- CAT-Grocery
| |-- SEG-Meats
| |- BD-Harris
I need to display All 'CAT' elements in rows and all its children (SEG and BD elements) in columns in a pivot table.
Could you please help me to form the MDX query to display the data in ADF Pivot table.
Sample query that I used:
SELECT
{[Item].[CAT-Beauty Products].Siblings}
ON COLUMNS,
{[CAT-Beauty Products].members}
ON ROWS
FROM Vcp_Tu1.Supply
This is giving the below error message:
Statement Executed with Warnings.

Sorry you can't do that. as a work around you could create attribute dimensions for the parent and the could cposstab them, or split the dim into two dimensions

Activating audit for Dimension Members in BPC 7.5 NW

Hi,
Is it possible to activate dimension member audit in BPC 7.5 NW. Meaning, can we trace changes to master data (dimension members) in BPC 7.5 NW?
Best regard
SSC

Hi,
The Activity Auditing tracks Administrative and User tasks at the Appset level.
This will be controlled by the Administrators to check whether activity auditing is enabled or not.
To enable this future go to -> Administration for the Web, choose Manage Activity Audit -> then choose one or both types of activities to audit.
Please check the help file for the same.

Automatic creation of new dimension members

Hello all,
Bit of a long post so please bear with me.
I am about to embark on only my third BPC project after having spent several years implementing solutions using BusinessObjects Planning (formerly SRC software), and am still struggling to come up with an elegant solution to the fact that I cannot save data to dimension elements unless they are already explicitly defined in the dimension member list (presumably due to cube architecture).
Those of you who have used BOP/SRC will remember this as unvalidated dimensions.
I find having to first go to admin and pre create members before being able to use an input schedule to save data against them is very restrictive.
I'm hoping one of you guys can help me improve on the workaround I currently use.
For example I have a 'bid submission' input schedule that is used by the user to submit bids for increased budget, capital or revenue, capturing basic costs and commentary. The user selects a bid number from a combo box which is populated by using an EVLST formula to read in pre created dimension members. I have to save a flag to the db which I then use to exclude already used numbers when feeding the combo box on future submissions.
Which works ok but if I have a hierarchy on bid number based on say, cost centre, how do I get around the fact that number ranges have to be pre-assigned to cost centre, Cost Centre A = 1 to 1000, Cost Centre B = 1001 to 2000 etc. What happens if I go over the 1000 on Cost centre A? I then get non contiguous ranges per cost centre.
Is it possible for the bid number to be dictated by the user when they start to fill in the bid submission? Or give the impression that they are?
Or if the client has a bid number format that cannot be pre created? Eg incorporating things like year or person etc. This information could be save separately but not within the bid number. Is it possible to save data to dimension property columns from an input schedule?
Hope you guys can help
Many thanks
Phil

Displaying row numbers in tables

Is there a way to get JTable to display row numbers on the left-most side of the table? Are there any functions in JTable that will allow you to do this?
I am thinking that to do this, I will probably need to add a column to my table model and make the first column and uneditable JLabel that shows the row number.
Thanks for any help.

Ok , the class i am pulling this code from is 500+ lines of code, so I will try to pull out only the important pieces.

Valid Combinations for DImension Members

Hi All,
We have dimensions for Cost Center and Company code in one of our BPC Applications..Is there a way we can avoid users planning for incorrect combinations?
E.g. -
Valid Combinations -
Cost Center 1 >>>Company Code 1000
Cost Center 2 >>>Company Code 2000
In case the user selects Cost Center 1 & Company code 2000 in current view and enters plan values - the system should not allow the same...Is there a way to maintain valid combinations for dimension members (belonging to different dimensions) in BPC???

Hi Shibu,
It was just an example, to show you how to control the combinations. You might have to design it based on the exact business requirement.
Please note that this wont be a straight-forward process, and you might have to use some VB macros to ensure you get, what you require.
Lets say, based on the expansion, you have 5 company codes to be displayed in the template. You should, first, use an EVEXP function to list all the 5 company codes in some empty region of the template. Use a macro to concatenate all the 5 company codes separated by "|". Then, for the expansion on cost centers, you should again use a macro which will consider each of the 5 company codes at a time, and set the expansion to "P_COMPANY = ABC". Since you have 5 company codes, hence you will have 5 such combinations of member filter pertaining to each of the 5 company codes. Then you must concatenate them using "|", and this should be the memberset option for the cost center dimension.
I understand that this is going to be a bit complex, but I dont see any other option.
Hope this helps.

How can I manage access to dimension members in a layout?

Hello,
I have a dimension member list of materials (400) on a "material" dimension. But some people have access to one portion of the whole group and others may have access to other groups. But the materials can be shared between groups so I cannot group them in differents hierarchies.
The problem is in the layout you need to select a hierachy to show various rows (the whole group of materiales). The layout shows all the list of materials. Even if the user only have access to 10 of them. I don't know how is the best way for presenting this to the user? It should presents only the 10 rows corresponding to his materials.
One way that I found (but I don't find it acceptable because of the hard effort that represents the maintenance) is to create differents member access profiles and denied the access to each material (dimension member - 390) that the user cannot modified. Then in excel I have to run a macro that hides all the rows that have an empty description in the cell of the material name.
How can I achive this?
Is there a function in BPC to see if a user have access or not to a dimension member?
The only way to show in a layout various rows is to set in the view a hierarchy?
Thanks & Regards
SU

hi
pl. verify whether this will suit your requirements:
Material           UG1           UG2
MAT1               Y
MAT2                                 Y
MAT3               Y
MAT4                                 Y
MAT5               Y               Y
Now UG1,UG2 diff user groups and property in Material. Assignment of Y is one time job.
At the time of accessing the dimension members can restrict on the basis of UG1="Y" or UG2="Y" property
Here MAT5 is common in both UG1 and UG2
(Hardly may have 3-4 set of users: Accordingly can have UG1,UG2,UG3,UG4 etc.)

How to auto-update of script logics after adding new dimension members?

Hi Experts,
Just wanna ask if BPC has a functionality that would automatically update/validate and save my script logic whenever I add new dimension members. I've added new PL accounts but they are not automatically added to my calculated BS Net Income. I had to re-validate and save my logic for it to be included in my logic and for the amounts to be computed correctly.
Thanks,
Marvin

Hi Marvin,
There is no functionality as such. we need to configure the script as and when we make any changes in the dimension members.

Import Comments data and Dimension Members from csv file via Data Manager

Dear Experts,
I have two questions regarding the data manager.
Q1.Is it possible to import "Comments" from the csv file via Data Manager?
We'd like to import the amount with "Comments".
My image of csv file is like below;
ACCOUNT,CATEGORY,TIME,ENTITY,INPUTCURRENCY,AMOUNT,COMMENTS
1100000,ACTUAL,2010/06,LC,30000,This is comment
Q2.Is it possible to import the dimension "members" from the csv file via Data Manager?
We have a user-defined dimension named "Project"
and would like to import the members, instead of maintaining them in BPC administration manually.
I found an online help information which says "Import Master Data from a Data File Example",
but I could not find any relevant sample package for this.
(I tried to import the members by using "Import" package, but it failed...)
reference:http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75/helpdata/en/86/8b1bfc12c94fb0b585cca70d6f1b61/content.htm
Thanks in advance for your help.
Fumi

Hi Fumi,
In this case, I would suggest you to create a customized SSIS package which will fill-in the "Comment<APP>" table, according to the csv file you have. I do not know any standard package that allows you to import comment the way you would like...
Best Regards,
Patrick
