Calculation in rule file
Hi
On the rule file in data column is possible apply a calculate???
(datacolum / 1000000) * -1
Regards!
Hello Sringelmo,
Technically that kind of "calculation" you can do.
Scaling and flip sign on UDA.
BUT all data in the data load will be scaled. So do not load FTE or other numbers with it.
The UDA should be there before loading.
I would see if there are options in the source or do a calculation in Essbase afterwards (input_version -> working_version)
Regards,
Philip Hulsebosch

How to get an account with an IsICP -"R" attribute calculated in the HFM Rule file
Till recently everything was going fine with the calculations in our HFM setup ( Version 4.1)
We have say around 8 Expense accounts which roll up into a Parent account say ALL446 which finally rolls up into Operating Expenses.
Operating Expenses
|__ parent account
|_INVALO
|_ALL446
|__222446
|__242446
And we have a calculation in the rule file as below
HS.EXP "A#BE FIXED COST = A#Operating Expenses +A#SGA - A#BE VC OP F10"
This was calculating correctly till we did the below change
Added IsICP attribute to couple of accounts say 222446 and 242446 ( in the above example) in the metadata which finally rolls up into Operating Expense.
Note: we did not add any Plug account attribute to the accounts
Now the problem what we have in hand is -> Fixed Cost is not calculating correctly.- It happens that the two accounts for which we added the IsICP are not showing up in the calculation and the data in those two accounts are not adding up in Fixed Cost.
POV in GRID/Excel -> actual,2013,periodic,<Entity Currency>, ICP Top, AllCustom1, AllCustom2, AllCustom3, None( for custom4)
But when we retrieve Operating Expenses in Excel - it is showing the correct amount, even in the grid - but looks like when the rule tries to calculate Fixed Expenses using the above rule - these accounts are not adding up in the Operating expenses.
I tried the formula ( to check what number is coming into Fixed cost ) - the result is zero - But in the grid/excel I see amount for acct2. Same POV as above
HS.EXP "A#BE FIXED COST = A#222446"
and if I add & Tops to the account like below ( getting some weird number instead of what is there in acct2)
HS.EXP "A#BE FIXED COST = A#222446" & Tops
Questions:
1) Where exactly I am going wrong ?
2) Is it MANDATORY to have a Plugaccount attribute when we have IsICP turned to "R" ?
3) What will happen if we do not have a Plugaccount for the IsICP account ?
4) How to correct the formula to make sure I get the number in the acct2 into Fixed Cost??
5) Do we need to have the IsICP turned on to the immediate parent of the account having IsICP and the Top parents of the account too??
6) Is it possible to get the exact number what we have in 222446 into BE Fixed Cost account via Rule?- why I am not getting it
Notes:
BE Fixed Cost-> account type -"Expense", IsCalculated - yes, IsConsolidated - yes, IsICP- N, Custom1TopMember - AllFunctions, Custom3TopMember- AllCustom3, enabled allcustom1,2,3,4aggregations
Operating Expenses->"Expense", IsCalculated - No, IsConsolidated - yes, IsICP- N, Custom1TopMember - AllFunctions, Custom3TopMember- AllCustom3, enabled allcustom1,2,3,4aggregations
INVALO ->"Expense", IsCalculated - No, IsConsolidated - yes, IsICP- N, Custom1TopMember -none, Custom3TopMember- none,
enabled allcustom1,2,3,4aggregations
Problematic account 222446 -> "Expense", IsCalculated - No, IsConsolidated - yes, IsICP- R, Custom1TopMember - Operations, Custom3TopMember- AllCustom3, enabled allcustom1,2,3,4aggregations
The Entity on which I am trying to get the data( mentioning wherever I have attributes for this entity)
DefCurrency - DEM, Allowadjs- enabled, IsICP - enabled, Userdefined 2 - financial, - SecurityasPartner attribute - is not selected through out the applicaiton.
Variable
Tops = ".I#[ICP Top].C1#AllCustom1.C2#AllCustom2.C3#AllCustom3.C4#[None]"
tried attaching the attachments ( but service is unavailable)
Waiting for all of your valuable suggestions..1) why was I not getting the formula right when I use & Tops
I'm assuming that BE Fixed Cost has N for IsICP, in that case you can not write to invalid intersections as it would attempt to use the same ICP information
2) Is it MANDATORY to have a Plugaccount attribute when we have IsICP turned to "R" ?
No
3) What will happen if we do not have a Plugaccount for the IsICP account ?
It will not run eliminations
4) Do we need to have the IsICP turned on to the immediate parent of the account having IsICP and the Top parents of the account too??
If you want it to rollup, yes you would need that. We have all Parent accounts as isICP set to Y and top member to ICP Entities so that they roll up
5) which will have priority the rule or the Grid where we have the calculated member like the BE Fixed Cost - because in the grid I had icptop, allcustom1,2 3 and when had & Tops to the account - I got some weird numbers...
I'm not following the question here, grids are just really a display mechanism, rules will handle all of the calculations. -
Rules File Not Running in EPMA During Consolidation
Greetings -
I am doing a migration from 11.1.1.2 to our Production environment in 11.1.1.3. We are using EPMA, though I wrote and maintain the rules files in the old editor and import them to the calc manager. I have exported and imported the metadata, recreated the applications, imported the rules file, and recreated security. Everything between the two systems seem to match. The rules file imported without issue and can be extracted from the application, I know it is deploying. When I run a consolidation, the rules file seems to be getting skipped somehow. System translation and consolidation (no special rules for those) run fine, but the consolidation immediately starts at 40% and none of my dynamic or calculated accounts are ever populated. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
SarahIn Calc Manager, check in the menu bar, look for Deployment View.
Make sure the Sub Calculate is checked and then re-deploy. -
Hyperion DLL use in Rule file?
This is probably a stretch to even ask this, but has anyone attempted to reference the DLL/API commands through the rules file? Since it's VB code, it seems like it might be possible to some how reference the dll files stored on the server to allow a subroutine to perform tasks such as open a journal period.
Does anyone know if this is possible?Theoretically you can do anything within the bounds of VBScript. Keep in mind that the DCOM user is the one performing the operations, so whatever you do must be accessible/executable by the DCOM user. We have had discussions with development to restrict the boundaries of VBScript from rules since this can pose a security hole. So, even if you could run some code from rules in 9.3, it's possible that it won't run in 11.x. When we developed Calc Manager, we researched hundreds of applications and found the majorit of non-calculation activities launched from rules encompassed "Write To File" and "Timers and Counters". For these reasons, we added logging and timers directly into Calc Manager.
Is there something else you'd like to specifically try with rules, or are you just curious?

\\Error Reading Rules File when dimbuild with DLR
Hi
I am using Essbase 11.1.2.1.
I create a DLR via the web console EAS (11.1.2.1 too) : a very simple one : dimbuild DLR, ";" as separator, 2 fields (parent and child)
when i try do do a "Update Ouline..." with a very simple file (1 line : accounts;test) I have this error message "\\Error Reading Rules File"
I don't know if it can help but if I create the same DLR on another 7.1 essbase serveur through this same wec eas console (11.1.2.1), I have no problem...
another information, too : my 11.1.2.1 server has a //ESS_LOCALE English_UnitedStates.Latin1@Binary ESSLANG. My 7.1 server has a //ESS_LOCALE French_France.ISO-8859-15@Default ESSLANG. I really don't know if there is a link, or absolutely not.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Fannyunable to load essmsh.exe : the error message seems to indicate that it is a problem with a path in the environment variables.
So if you say that the "Error Reading Rules File" is typically a path issue, all is probably linked!
The admin will probably correct that tomorrow : I let you know if it solves the problem!
Thanks!

How can end users execute rules files ?
There is a need to have Hyperion Planning end users kick off a rules file in EAS. Obviously we can not give end users access to EAS to execute a SQL based rules file. Our Admin is now executing the same rules files 20 times a day. What is the best way for the end user to execute a rules file themselves or load data to Essbase from a SQL source ?
ThanksThanks for the suggestions. The first reply of using the MaxL script to call the load rule is what you would do if you were an administrator. My problem is that this solution is for end users and they would need to somehow need to use a Remote Desktop Protocol to log into a server and call a batch file that contained the MaxL script to load data.
The second reply seems a little bit more elegant in that the end users could theoretically kick off a data load by executing a BR that calls an ODI Package. This way, the users don't have to leave the Planning Application to load data.
We do use ERPi and therfore we do have ODI, but I'm new to ODI and it would take me awhile to piece together all the moving pieces to make this work. I guess the first reply is my path of least resistance so I'm going to give it a try. I'm more perplexed however, in that we can't be the only company out there that has a need for the end users to execute a load rule at their own discretion. Are there any more suggestions out there ?
Thanks Gurus. -
How to tune data loading time in BSO using 14 rules files ?
Hello there,
I'm using Hyperion-Essbase-Admin-Services v11.1.1.2 and the BSO Option.
In a nightly process using MAXL i load new data into one Essbase-cube.
In this nightly update process 14 account-members are updated by running 14 rules files one after another.
These rules files connect 14 times by sql-connection to the same oracle database and the same table.
I use this procedure because i cannot load 2 or more data fields using one rules file.
It takes a long time to load up 14 accounts one after other.
Now my Question: How can I minimise this data loading time ?
This is what I found on Oracle Homepage:
What's New
Oracle Essbase V.11.1.1 Release Highlights
Parallel SQL Data Loads- Supports up to 8 rules files via temporary load buffers.
In an Older Thread John said:
As it is version 11 why not use parallel sql loading, you can specify up to 8 load rules to load data in parallel.
Example:
import database AsoSamp.Sample data
connect as TBC identified by 'password'
using multiple rules_file 'rule1','rule2'
to load_buffer_block starting with buffer_id 100
on error write to "error.txt";
But this is for ASO Option only.
Can I use it in my MAXL also for BSO ?? Is there a sample ?
What else is possible to tune up nightly update time ??
Thanks in advance for every tip,
ZeljkoThanks a lot for your support. I’m just a little confused.
I will use an example to illustrate my problem a bit more clearly.
This is the basic table, in my case a view, which is queried by all 14 rules files:
column1 --- column2 --- column3 --- column4 --- ... ---column n
dim 1 --- dim 2 --- dim 3 --- data1 --- data2 --- data3 --- ... --- data 14
Region -- ID --- Product --- sales --- cogs ---- discounts --- ... --- amount
West --- D1 --- Coffee --- 11001 --- 1,322 --- 10789 --- ... --- 548
West --- D2 --- Tea10 --- 12011 --- 1,325 --- 10548 --- ... --- 589
West --- S1 --- Tea10 --- 14115 --- 1,699 --- 10145 --- ... --- 852
West --- C3 --- Tea10 --- 21053 --- 1,588 --- 10998 --- ... --- 981
East ---- S2 --- Coffee --- 15563 --- 1,458 --- 10991 --- ... --- 876
East ---- D1 --- Tea10 --- 15894 --- 1,664 --- 11615 --- ... --- 156
East ---- D3 --- Coffee --- 19689 --- 1,989 --- 15615 --- ... --- 986
East ---- C1 --- Coffee --- 18897 --- 1,988 --- 11898 --- ... --- 256
East ---- C3 --- Tea10 --- 11699 --- 1,328 --- 12156 --- ... --- 9896
Following 3 out of 14 (load-) rules files to load the data columns into the cube:
Rules File1:
dim 1 --- dim 2 --- dim 3 --- sales --- ignore --- ignore --- ... --- ignore
Rules File2:
dim 1 --- dim 2 --- dim 3 --- ignore --- cogs --- ignore --- ... --- ignore
Rules File14:
dim 1 --- dim 2 --- dim 3 --- ignore --- ignore --- ignore --- ... --- amount
Is the upper table design what GlennS mentioned as a "Data" column concept which only allows a single numeric data value ?
In this case I cant tag two or more columns as “Data fields”. I just can tag one column as “Data field”. Other data fields I have to tag as “ignore fields during data load”. Otherwise, when I validate the rules file, an Error occurs “only one field can contain the Data Field attribute”.
Or may I skip this error massage and just try to tag all 14 fields as “Data fields” and “load data” ?
Please advise.
Am I right that the other way is to reconstruct the table/view (and the rules files) like follows to load all of the data in one pass:
dim 0 --- dim 1 --- dim 2 --- dim 3 --- data
Account --- Region -- ID --- Product --- data
sales --- West --- D1 --- Coffee --- 11001
sales --- West --- D2 --- Tea10 --- 12011
sales --- West --- S1 --- Tea10 --- 14115
sales --- West --- C3 --- Tea10 --- 21053
sales --- East ---- S2 --- Coffee --- 15563
sales --- East ---- D1 --- Tea10 --- 15894
sales --- East ---- D3 --- Coffee --- 19689
sales --- East ---- C1 --- Coffee --- 18897
sales --- East ---- C3 --- Tea10 --- 11699
cogs --- West --- D1 --- Coffee --- 1,322
cogs --- West --- D2 --- Tea10 --- 1,325
cogs --- West --- S1 --- Tea10 --- 1,699
cogs --- West --- C3 --- Tea10 --- 1,588
cogs --- East ---- S2 --- Coffee --- 1,458
cogs --- East ---- D1 --- Tea10 --- 1,664
cogs --- East ---- D3 --- Coffee --- 1,989
cogs --- East ---- C1 --- Coffee --- 1,988
cogs --- East ---- C3 --- Tea10 --- 1,328
discounts --- West --- D1 --- Coffee --- 10789
discounts --- West --- D2 --- Tea10 --- 10548
discounts --- West --- S1 --- Tea10 --- 10145
discounts --- West --- C3 --- Tea10 --- 10998
discounts --- East ---- S2 --- Coffee --- 10991
discounts --- East ---- D1 --- Tea10 --- 11615
discounts --- East ---- D3 --- Coffee --- 15615
discounts --- East ---- C1 --- Coffee --- 11898
discounts --- East ---- C3 --- Tea10 --- 12156
amount --- West --- D1 --- Coffee --- 548
amount --- West --- D2 --- Tea10 --- 589
amount --- West --- S1 --- Tea10 --- 852
amount --- West --- C3 --- Tea10 --- 981
amount --- East ---- S2 --- Coffee --- 876
amount --- East ---- D1 --- Tea10 --- 156
amount --- East ---- D3 --- Coffee --- 986
amount --- East ---- C1 --- Coffee --- 256
amount --- East ---- C3 --- Tea10 --- 9896
And the third way is to adjust the essbase.cfg parameters DLTHREADSPREPARE and DLTHREADSWRITE (and DLSINGLETHREADPERSTAGE)
I just want to be sure that I understand your suggestions.
Many thanks for awesome help,

Here i'm building the dimension through generation build method.
setting the properties as
Field, Dimension, Field Type, Field Number
Field1,Product,Generation,2
Field2,Product,property,2
Field3,Product,Generation,3
Field4,Product,Generation,4
After mapping it shows dimensions are correctly mapped.
When i load the source file and the rule file, it shows error partially loaded data,.And it doesn't shows the shared member property. That is what asked How to modify the source file for building shared members using Rules file.

Error while loading data to ASO database using rules files and buffer id
Hello all,
While loading the data to our ASO cube from a data file and using a server rules file, I am getting a warning: "Incorrect Syntax near ['$'] ". But my script no where mentions the usage of $. Also the console throws no error while loading the data. It displays the progress bar 0-100% while the data is being loaded, but actually no data is getting loaded (when retrieval is checked). Also the script is unable to form any log file or error file. Can anyone throw some light what might be the reason behind this kind of data load behaviour.
Thanks in advance.
Amitis that the real script? I don't see you using any parameter. (That's where $ comes to play). Try a double quote with echo (I never used echo in MaxL)
Also don't post passwords and server names on a forum.

Thanks,
Santhosh" Incompatible rule file. Duplicate member name rule file is used against unique name database."
I am just guessing here as I have never used the duplicate name functionality in Essbase, nor do I remember which versions it was in. However with that said I think your answer is in your error message.
Just guessing again.... It appears that your rule file is set to allow duplicate member names while your database is not. With that information in hand (given to you in the error message) I would start to explore that. -

Issue with rule file and Substitution variable
Hi All,
I am using Essbase 9.3.3
I created a rule file with 5 dimensions in which 3 dimensions I defined in columns and two dimensions I gave it as header in data column with comma seperated.
Among those two dimension members, one is an account member with "/" in it within quotes and other is a substitution variable.
The member assigned for that Substitution variable has a space in between and is updated within quotes in variables list.
When I try loading data, I am getting an error saying that two members are not valid.
Eg: "Tax/Unit",&Scenario is not valid.
&Scenario - "Budget Q1"
Can some one please suggest on the issue.
I am not facing any problem in calc scripts or reports scripts using the substition variable.
Thanks in advanceMark,
Modifying the default files is dangerous and ill advised. You could always just add a style sheet (inline or linked) to your application that overrides that one setting while you wait on the permanent fix.
