Business Rules for Business Users

Folks,
There is a requirement from my clients to use Business rules by Business users, apparently it is difficult to give them jdeveloper and ask to devlop, have you come across such situation? if so what is the best way to handle such scenarios.
FYI: we're implementing 11g BRE
TIA

The only way is to use Rules SDK. We had a similar requirement and had to develop a custom GUI with all CRUD operations using Rules SDK.
The starting points are:

or simply starting from the master index (search for Business rules)

Essbase parent level aggregation business rule for end users

Can someone provide me the basic syntax of a business rule to allow end users within Planning to run a run time prompt business to aggregate their responsibility level within a dimension like Cost Center? So for example, I want to allow a cost center manager to pick his parent level cost center and then run the aggregation script to rollup only his cost center expenses. I've tried to include AGG and CalcDim commands with various global variables to enable them to select the cost center fix point, but the aggregation doesn't seem to produce the right results. Anyone have a workable syntax for this?

If you are just trying to agg the children up to the parent it is even simplier I'll assume you are trying to roll up the company to some intermediate level
Say you have the outline
company
---East
------NY
-----NJ
---West
-----Ca
-----Az
and you want to roll up East you could do something like
FIX (FY10, Final, Actual)
@IDESCENDANTS("East");
ENDFIX
Of course I would add more into the fix to do the least work possible
The command Idescendants really means calculate all of the descendants of the selected member. I guess if you wanted to make it more efficient you could add the level command into it
like @idescendants("East"",-1) that would avoid looking for anything to do on the level zero members

Business rule for Essbase cube calculations in 11.1.1.3?

Hi,
Can we use business rules to use @XREF from data transfer from one cube to other cube.Why I went for business rule is, I can put set of business rules in a Sequence and any new user can run this Sequence on demand and even we need prompt also in that.
So, I want to clarify whether I can use the business rules for Essbase calculations along with calc scripts??
Appreciate the response.
Thanks

Right,
Actually, Business rules are running essbase cubes in every case.
Remember planning and BRs are adding extra layers like prompts, forms, security, processes...
Think Business rules are extended version of calc scripts with some more functionality. They are ultimately running on essbase cubes...

Business rules for leaves

Hi All
I know we can define calendar and holiday rules.
Can we also define rules for 'leaves'?
Say for example, a participant 'P' in role 'R' is on leave for 3 days, then all his due instances get postponed by these three days. Alternatively, all his instances become available to his manager to work on. The manager can be in the same Role 'R'.
Thanks

BUSINESS RULES FOR PRODUCT

Hi,
Can any one help me to provide Business Rules(Validation Rules) of Product domain to be considered in integrating with other technologies.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Giri

BPM and a rules engine are different. Both are important, but they have different uses.
Oracle BPM Studio is used by Business Analysts and Developers to model processes, integrate underlying components (including business rules) and develop user interfaces.
There's an Engine that executes the processes that have been modeled. It sends the work item instances to the right person or persons with the right data when the work item reaches an interactive activity in the process. Similarly the Engine has invokes the underlying components specified in the process when the work item instance reaches an automatic activity.
There's an out of the box Workspace runtime that lets end users manage and run their work item instances as they flow throughout the processes.
We can business rules inside the processes, but one does not replace the other.

Business rules for check current date and session user

MDS 2012
Hi All! How to make validation business rules:
1. date < GETDATE()
2. current session user is UserName(), where UserName() - system function like in MS Analysis Services
from Moscow with Love

There is no way to create this with a Business Rule, you have to write a custom workflow or SQL nightly job or something to update your fields.
Ok people start screaming.
"solution" if you want to call it that. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, try in dev first :)
1. Create an Attribute / Column in your Entity and call it Today or something.
2. Go to Business Rules and create a dummy rule where you are setting this attribute (unconditionally with no Condition)
Today equals 1/1/2000 or something.
3. Go to tblBRItem find this BR and etin ItemSQL from N'1/1/2000' to GETDATE()
now you have Todays Date field...
OK NEVER MIND, I've tried it and it works, the problem is that tblBRItems gets updated via a stored proc and will overwrite your entry.
One can modify the code there as well but I don't have time to play with it unfortunately, as at that time you have to pass some token in to identify some values as your own special commands ... Either way this becomes messy and not a way to go.

BPC10 / BPC7.5 NW: the use of US ellimination business rule for matrix elim

In tryuing to make the US Elim business rule work:
-     Can the US elim procedure support the elimination between an entity and intco AND a segment and partner segment in the same app ? So basically the need is to eliminate intercompany transactions between the management structure (entity and interco) and the segment structure (or LOB structure as you will) that are in two different dimensions ( in other words an entity can belong to more than one segment and therefore they cannot have the segment in the same entity dimension and need to have a second dimension for that). Now the problem is that I have one entity dim and an intco dim, and two user defined dimensions (one for segment and one for partner_segement, aka the intco belonging to the segment). I believe this cannot be done since the US Elim procedure will look for a dimension of type entity and of type intco and therefore will only work on those two dimensions. It will not work with the user defined dimensions.
-     Meaning, that if that is the case, you have to move your segment dimension into your entity dimension as an unrelated second hierarchy. Ofcourse the downside is then that you will clutter the entity dimension with this segment information and you have to enter your data twice (as ideally you wanted to enter the data for entity XYZ and then distribute the number over the various segments, that now becomes a bit more chunkier). What is a best practice if you need to eliminate on two different axisses like legal entity and management structure or Lobu2019s etcu2026
-     If using the US elim procedure, do you technically need a GROUPS dimension in your application ? The documentation mentions it in its example, but since it is not used anywhere in a typical application that uses US eliminations (as it is more for legal consolidation applications where you need it), I was wondering if you can leave it out.
A quick answer is highly appreciated. Short words/clues or simple yes or no are more than enough. No need to write prozau2026.
Thanks,
*edwin

Jianbai-- when you see 0 submitted 0 success 0 fail..
it just means that there is no data tht suits the us-elim criterion.
For the package parameters...
1)make sure that there is data   for the CATEGORY
2)The CURRENCY has its reporting property set to Y
3)There are INtercompany transaction entries between 2 ENTITIES and their ELIM property(ENTITIES involved) is NOT "Y".
4)In 3, make sure the ACCOUNT being used for the intercompany transactions have their ELIMACC property NOT BLANK.
then you shld be all set !!!...if you configured your DATASRC (is_consolidated property(it shld be eith I/M) dimension correctly ...
you don't even need any business rules to have your ICELIM working..
Best luck

Substitution rule for Business place and section code

Hello Friends,
We have a business place and a section code. I want to write a substituion rule for vendor invoice for business place and section code.
When i see in header, i am not find BUPLA and SECCO in header. I am finding them in line item. How do i get these fields in header segment. I tried substution rule in line item, but the tds is not deducted.
Thanks
SK

hi SK,
i am not understand your problem. Previously i face one problem regarding business place and section code. While booking invoices and advance payments the user forgets to specify business place or section code and some times he specifys wrong business place also. Basing on business place or section code we cant restrict the users because there is no authorisation object.
i created one validation that if my business area is 1000. then substitute the business place field with section code.
we have business place individual business area wise so i created this substitution.

Sankar

Substitution rule for Business area in F-02

Dear SAP gurus,
The client has 2 plants at different locations. 2 plants are created as business areas.
Our requirement is, when users at bus area 1 are posting expenditure in f-02, the field business area should be automatically filled with '1000'(bus area 1). the users need not manually update the field Business area since they only operate and post in that location. Same functionality is needed at plant 2 also.
I came to know that this requirement can be fulfilled with Substitutions in SAP.
Can anybody please tell me how to write a substitution rule for the above requirement. Any other ideas are also welcome.
Please help me in this issue.
Thank you very much in advance.
Regards,
Vishnu
VST-ITPW

Hello,
You have to do two things.
1. First you write the substitution in GGB1
2. Assign the substituion to your comany code OBBH
In OBBH, write substituion at line item level of the document.
If the plant = A
Substitute business area with A
Check if there are any standard substitutions are available in your system
just for your reference.
Hope this resolves your problem.

Ravi

BPC NW - Error in Business Rule for Account transformation rule table

hi
I have given the Account transformation Rule to move Amount from Account A to Account B and then I have given the following script logic in the default script
**RUN_PROGRAM CALC_ACCOUNT*
*CATEGORY = Category*
*CURRENCY = RptCurrency*
*TID_RA = %TIME_SET%*
*CALC=A*
*OTHER = ENTITY=C1000*
**ENDRUN_PROGRAM*
But when I try to load data through Input schedule in Account A and expect amount to transfer to Account B, I m getting an error
Book Name:Book4

Submitted Count : 1*
Accepted Count : 1*

Can someone please advice me what to do ....

hi Marcel,
Lot of thanks for your answer.
But I have used your logic after removing GROUPS as I dont have GROUPS dimension in my application.
*RUN_PROGRAM CALC_ACCOUNT
CATEGORY = %CATEGORY_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
CALC=FX
OTHER = [ENTITY=%ENTITY_SET%]
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
This is the error I m getting

          - Error Message -
Error running default logic (Business rules are not available)
          - Rejected record list -

Can you please advice
a) Does it mean some issue with my client installation as I dont see these LGF files. I even dont see the data folder in which lgf files are supposed to be present
b) Where to find information for this interface CALC_ACCOUNT? How did you decide to use 'FX' and how do you know which dimensions to use. Like I dont have GROUPS.
Please give me your comments.

BUSINESS RULES FOR Vendor, Customer & PRODUCT

Hi Joseph,
First tell me how you want to maintain Inventory size wise?? If it is your A is Length, B is Width and C is your Height and you are not maintaining size wise stock then use Length,Width and Height which is in Item master here you can set fix values and activate same columns in document and you can change it in document. But in this case you cannot maintain size wise stock
If you are maintaining stock size wise then you have to create new item code every time.
You cannot use BP catalog number for this.
Thanks

Business rule for compare data in form

Hi all,
Let us explain my scenario,
I have 2 dynamic calc members in a dataform. I just want to compare those 2 member rows( data compare) and show some message.
is there any way i can make?
can i create one business rule to make this happend? is it possible? If its possible can you give me your thoughts on this.
Any information would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry about that . . . . I read the first post and assumed the code was related to a business rule instead of JavaScript - should have looked closer.
I would do a couple of things:
1) Simplify your code. Why have a separate function? Why not drop all the logic into validateForm?
2) Why haven't you populated the app name and form name in validateForm? (sorry if I missed this in the rest of the post somewhere)
3) Insert alerts within the code that cycles through the cells. Something like this:
cellVal = getCellValueXY(col,row);
alert(" Column: " + col + "\n" +
" Row: " + row + "\n" +
" Cell Value: " + cellVal);
This will tell you exactly how your JavaScript is evaluating each cell. This can help when you're dealing with floating point decimal issues. (you entered 10, but it's being evaluated as 10.00000001) If this ends up being your issue (floating point issues), let me know and I'll show you how to get around this.
If you throw enough alerts at this code, your issue will finally show itself.
4) I wouldn't assign values to "startCol" and "numberGridCols". I believe these variables are set elsewhere in the code (not in YOUR code, but in EnterData.js or somewhere else).
Instead, I would use my own variables
5) I would structure the code more like this: (I haven't validated this or tested it . . . . use this for suggestion purposes only)
function validateForm()
var valid = true;
var c;
if (equalsIgnoreCase(applicationName,"PUT YOUR APP NAME HERE")) {
if (equalsIgnoreCase(formName,"PUT YOUR FORM NAME HERE")) {
for (c=3; c<numCols; c++) {
if((grid23[c] != missing) || (grid24[c] != missing)) {
var actualVal = getCellVal(23,c);
var budgetVal = getCellVal(24,c);
if(actualVal != budgetVal){
valid = false;
if (!validated) {
alert("The numbers you have submitted for SII are not equal to Actuals. Please adjust your numbers.\n");
return valid;
I hope this helps. Hopefully there aren't too many bugs in this.
