Business rules sequences showing up in multiple applications

Hi,
We've added four sequences to a project for one application in EAS but they are showing up in all three of our applications in Workspace. How can we make sure these sequences are only available in the one application?
Version 11.1.1.3
Thank you.

Hi,
One thing to check for is that hbrserver.properties exists in file structure under the planning web application, e.g.
\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\HyperionPlanning\webapps\HyperionPlanning\WEB-INF\classes\HBRServer.properties
This example is for tomcat on 9.3.x
If the file doesn't exist there copy it from your AAS installation dir e.g. Hyperion\AnalyticAdministrationServices
Make sure you restart planning if you have to copy the file across
Cheers

Business Rule Sequence Error in Planning

Hello Everyone,
I have a Planning application where users can run a sequence of rules by going to Tools > Business Rules and selecting the sequence. The sequence has about 8 rules in it. The sequence errors after the 7th rule (a currency conversion/calculation which takes upwards of 12 minutes). The logs do not say anything about an error, however, it does say that the active user was cleared on the database. (The BR log says that the rule never finished but the Essbase log says that it finished. The following rule in the sequence never starts.
Note: The business rule sequence completes without errors when the sequence is started from Essbase Administration Services.
Is there some type of timeout/setting update I should look at or any suggestions on where to look within the business rule?
Thank you,
Mark

Hi,
Have a read of the following :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/ch02s07s04.html
It explains how to set the threshold before business rules are run in the background to get around timeouts.

Business rule not showing the result

When i am executing a business rule, it runs successfully but it does not show any result. But when i enter any amount in that specific cell where the BR should calculate the amount and then run the BR then it shows me the required result. What can be the reason for that?
We are on 11.1.2
and im making BRs through Calc Manager (Wizard Based)
Edited by: ar_aff on Mar 24, 2011 9:56 PM

I think that's about Block problem (value of a cell). The BR can't open block automatically. In BR sorce usually used a command Set Createnonmissngblk on before calculating value;

Business Rule Sequence issue

Hi,
We have our system on 9.3.0.1 and I am currently facing a strange issue.
I have a set of rules that I have added to an existing sequence. Now I want these rules to execute in an order and I have set the order in the sequence. However when I save, close and open the sequence again, it randomly changes the order.
Has anyone seen this issue before?
Regards,
Amol

Hi,
Well firstly the version 9.3.0.1 isn't a very stable one. So if you are working on 9.3.1 or above then I don't think it should affect you. Also what I noticed was that as long as the total number of business rules in the sequence were less than 10 then it wouldn't cause the issue.
Hope it helps.

Amol

Business Rule Of Sample Application in Planning

Hi Planning Gurus,
I am unable to find where the business rule is saved in Planning Application (Sample Application shipped with Planning), though i see some default Rules under Business Rule within Admin console like aggall etc. But where are the basic calc like Revenue=Unit*Unit Price.
Thanks & regards
N Kumar

If the location and access has been set up on the business rule then they should appear soon after in planning.
If no business rules are showing and depending on your version, check that HBRServer.properties exists in the planning web server strucure e..g \Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\HyperionPlanning\webapps\HyperionPlanning\WEB-INF\classes

Security group provisining only to show Business rules to the users.

Hi,
Could anybody tell what setting in the Group Provisioning required so that users in that group only see business rules in planning application and not calculation script on the servers. We work on 9.2 env. ?
Thanks,

Yes group is provisioned as planner and have essbase server access... and user in this groups are able to see both business rules and calc script in planning application... but we want to show them only business rules and not calc scripts...

Business rules application invocation throws operationErroredFault

Hello,
I'm hitting the operationErroredFault exception using OBR on a Bpel component in soa 11.1.1.6.
The debugging of the business rule engine shows that a rule is fired and the assertions on the action part of the rule exits on the engine working memory.
Has anyone hit this problem and can give me a clue of how to proceed to fix it.

The error message concerning org.edf.ALERTE is misleading because there is a fact asserted on the rule engine concerning this class.

I found that I had to import the following jar files as well:

Invoking business rules 11g from Java application

We have SOASuite 11g running on weblogic and have read through documentation/played with Oracle business rules
We want to utilize business rules engine within our Java web applications deployed to glassfish server (Non SOA application). Is this even possible and does anyone use it in this way? Any pointer is much appreciated.
What are the libraries like Oracle rules SDK that I need to include in the classpath of Java web app?
This link assumes that web app is co-located in the same weblogic instance running SOASuite and doesn't help my case.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e10228/non_soa.htm#BGBBCICB
By using it within Java application, we want to able to make local calls as opposed to calling a decision function as web service. Volume of actual rules and their usage is so high within our Java app. Also we want to take advantage of java beans defined in our business layer by using Java facts and without having to define XSD for XML facts.

I had seen the blog, It explains how to test business rules by loading the dictionary from static rules file.
my requirement is to invoke the business rule engine running on the SOA server, from the application module. can you please help me in this.
Thanks inadvance.

Upgrade Business rules with Calc Manager

Hello Gurus,
Recently performed an upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 by replicating the Database to a new database machine.
I had Business rules in 11.1.1.3 and did not perform any steps to migrate the rules to Calculation manager in 11.1.2.2
The doubt I have is,
1. Are the business rules automatically upgraded when performing upgrade by EPM system configurator (since the database is replicated)
2. If so, how do I see the business rules in 11.1.2.2 environment? How can I use migrate feature option.
Thanks
HyperionEPM.

From 11.1.2.2 documentation:
Upgrade Wizard
If your application used Oracle Hyperion Business Rules, the Upgrade Wizard automatically converts Business Rules business rules to Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. Release 11.1.2.2 supports onlyBusiness Rules business rules as the calculation module.
Notes:
•Classic application administration is now called Oracle Hyperion Planning application administration (versus Oracle Hyperion EPM Architect application administration).
•The Upgrade Wizard automatically upgrades applications having Oracle Hyperion Business Rules business rules, converting them to Calculation Manager business rules. However, the Upgrade Wizard does not automatically convert Release 11.1.2.1 applications having Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. For those upgrade instructions, see the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
Business Rules Maintenance Release and Upgrade Installation PrerequisitesIf you are using Business Rules, you must migrate to Calculation Manager rules in Release 11.1.2.2. Before migrating business rules, you must perform prerequisite tasks. Note that these tasks are required if you are applying the maintenance release or if you are upgrading.
To prepare to migrate Business Rules, perform the following tasks in your current Business Rules environment before installing Release 11.1.2.2:
1.in Business Rules, within the Rule Editor, remove the associated outline (that is, the design time location) from each business rule. After you do this, the Associated Outline drop-down list should display the text, Select Outline.
2.On the Locations tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has a valid launch location, which must be an absolute location. Although “All Locations” is valid in Business Rules, when you migrate business rules, you must provide the details of a specific launch location (that is, the application type---Planning or Essbase, the server name, the application name, and the database or plan type). If you want a business rule to be valid for multiple launch locations, you must provide the details for each location. The locations must be in different applications; you cannot migrate the same business rule to different plan types in the same application within Calculation Manager.
If the rule is a part of a sequence, then the launch location of the rule within the sequence must be one of the launch locations listed in the Locations tab of the rule.
3.On the Access Privileges tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has security defined for a specific location or locations and not “All Locations.” If multiple locations are defined for a business rule on its Locations tab, you must add security for each location individually.
4.Do not modify rules in Calculation Manager until migration is completed.
5.If you are using Business Rules with Planning, as a precaution, create a backup of the rules: Use Administration Services to export the rules to XML in Business Rules format. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format. EPM System Configurator exports the rules during database configuration for use during application upgrade.
6.If you are an Essbase-only Business Rules user, you must export business rules. To export the Essbase rule from Business Rules:
a.From Administration Services Console, right-click the Business Rules node and select Export.
b.Export the rules in Business Rules format and then select all of the Essbase rules in the repository. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format.
c.Specify the location to save the XML file, and then click OK. If you are upgrading, the location should be a shared drive that is accessible from the upgraded environment.
Make a note of the location. You import the file later in the process.
Migrating Business Rules to Calculation Manager for use with Planning
If you applied the maintenance release to move from Planning Release 11.1.2.0 or 11.1.2.1 to Release 11.1.2.2, and you were using Business Rules rules, you must migrate the rules to Calculation Manager rules.
Before you migrate, ensure that user directories and native users with the same SID are available when you upgrade Shared Services.
Ensure that the Planning applications are upgraded to the current release and are available in Calculation Manager under SYSTEM View.
To migrate Business Rules rules to Calculation Manager rules:
1.In Calculation Manager, select the migrated Planning application, and then select Migrate.
The data that was exported during database configuration with EPM System Configurator is imported to Calculation Manager.
2.Repeat for each Planning application.
3.Deploy the rules from Calculation Manager to Planning. See the Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager Designer's Guide.
After migrating business rules and rules security, if any of the rules had multiple launch locations and you migrated to more than one location, Calculation Manager creates a rule for the first migration, and shortcuts for all subsequent migrations. If the rule had rule-level variables, for the shortcuts that are created in the application in the new environment , its variables are moved to the Plan level. In this scenario, test rules in your environment to ensure that they work as expected.
If you still have problems, raise an SR and we can get on a call to figure out why the rules are not coming over.

Error opening business rule from AAS

Hi,
I'm unable to open business rules from AAS console associated with one of the Planning/ Essbase application. This particular planning application is also not showing up when I try to "select outline" for the business rule. The business rules for this particular application are running fine from Planning web application.
Error retrieving Planning application app_name on server server_name.
Detail:Exception occurred. Please check your log file for details.
hbrserver.log randomly shows one of the two errors given below:
2010-06-15 16:02:56,469 WARN [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '1' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' com.hyperion.hbr.plugin.planning.PlanningMetadata - Error retrieving Planning application app_name on server server_name.
or
2010-06-15 15:28:22,094 WARN [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' com.hyperion.hbr.plugin.planning.PlanningMetadata - Cannot retrieve connected root element for Planning/server_name/app_name/database_name
There is no issue with other business rules which are associated with other applications.
I have tried restarting EAS service but that didn't fix the issue. Also, i reckon this problem came up after I manually deployed 64 bit weblogic for EAS. On other environments where tomcat is being used there are no issues at all.
Thanks in advance.

I take it you have tried the standard process of :-
Stop Planning,EAS, RMI services.
Start RMI,EAS,Planning
Log into the planning application through the web.
Log into EAS, open your rule.
Also can you create a new rule for the planning application after following the above process?
Cheers

Business Rules 3.5

Hi,
Our Company still using Hyperion Business Rules 3.5 and for an acquisition process they need to separate the Essbase and HBR instances in separate servers. That is already done. The process to export and import all the Business Rules was using the export/import application feature. All the rules were exported as a .GAL file and then imported to the new system.
The situation is that some rules run perfectly, doing all the distributions but others apparently run successfully but they don't do all the distributions, they don't process the formulas at all and no errors showed up. When we do a retrieve after those rules with problem run the data still unchanged.
Another note. The same rules that still in the original server run fine.
I'll appreciate all the hints and information you can bring me to go to the bottom of this situation.
Thanks.

You have appeared the rights! All trouble was in RTP settings. Its menu is allocated very inconveniently. I haven't found it at once))

Trouble Creating Business rules from EAS

Hi All,
I am new to Essbase and Planning. I am facing trouble creating Business rules from EAS. Every time I click on Business rules it shows login failed...

Hi,
Welcome! I believe it could be an access issue. Take a look at this: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hbr_admin_help/ch03s02s01.html
I would also check the provisioning. Here are the Business Rules roles: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_security/apas08.html
Hope it helps.

Business Rule Deployment Date & Time

Hi All,
Can we know if a business rule is deployed or not, including the time and date for deployment?? This must be available in RDBMS i think.
Like i tried a query which selects all the Business Rules and display created , modified and moved date and time.
The issue is that the time provided by the result of query do not match if we access the same business rule through workspace --> calc manger--> specified application --> specified plan type--> and the rule name
The query is
select * from
hsp_object ho
where ho.OBJECT_TYPE = 115

Error in Business Rule execution

Dear Gurus,
I have two base planning applications whihc are having lot of business rules. I have created Duplicate application for those two application by using LCM and EPMA. I have migrated each and every artefact.
I am able to see all the Business Rules in planning application and able to launch those but one business rule is giving problem.
That business rule is having 6 runtime prompts but in error it is stating only one RTP name.
The Error is - Unable to retrieve variable RTP_LAST_ACT_WK deployed in application PROPTEMP in Planning instance Default
I am clue less why the application is throwing this error.
Thanks
Giri Prasad

Hi Rahul and Endy,
I have created another duplicate application now and migrated all the artefacts and I set the default value for RTPs which i got from validation of particular business rule. Now its running fine with default instance.
The problem is i have created some more applications on different instance than the base application where the business rule validation is throwing different error.
I can stongly say that the instance is making the difference.
can you please let me know how to change the instance of existing planning applications.
Thanks
Giri
