CDF - calc script

The calc script for the Export cdf shows @Jexport being executed like rollup functions - in that there is no requirement that you have 'member = @Jcdf'.When I try this with a sample cdf, I get an error 'not a CALC command'.How do I get Essbase to recognize that this doesn't need anything on the left side?Harold

An other question about CDF and Script.I want to export data in a SGBDR , the sample works fine but :Is there a way to keep relationnal database connection open ( to increase performance) and so not to load connection class, open connection for each Essbase member ?X. VDS

DATAEXPORT - set Dynamic File name in Calc Script

Hi,
I have a calc script which exports data from BSO cube to a flat file. Currently I have hard coded file name within the calc script which is
DATAEXPORT "File" "," "D:/in/CAPXPT_FERC_*FY12*.txt";
and, for example, I want use the substition varaible to dynamically assign the file name let' say
DATAEXPORT "File" "," "/u11/oracle/OHDDEVD/in/CAPXPT_FERC *" + &fYear + "*.txt";
Is there any way to set the export file name dynamically?
Thanks for your help
Regards,

A kind of intriguing thought would be to use the sub var as a way to drive the file name, then grab Robb Salzmann's CDF to dynamically set sub vars on the fly, and then use a RTP to grab that string. I have no idea if this would all tie together, but it would be interesting to try.
Here's Robb's post: http://codingwithhyperion.blogspot.com/2011/08/create-and-update-substitution.html This is my second in a row post that refers to his CDF -- it is almost like that's my pseudonym except of course I'm too thick to write a CDF.

Call ODI 11g scenario from Essbase calc script/business rule using ODI SDK

I am looking for any hints on how to use the ODI 11g SDK. I want to call a java application (CDF) that runs an ODI scenario using RUNJAVA in Essbase which I have successfully done in the 10g environment.
The java application has the odi-core.jar included in the project and registers OK with Essbase and I have replicated code from the Oracle sample code site. When I run the application in a calc script I get the following error:
EssbaseCluster-1.EFTS.EFTS.odi     Execute calculation script     June 17, 2011 10:20:40 AM NZST     Failed
Error: 1200456 Problem running [indigo.essbase.odi.RunODIScenario]: [java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/util/StringUtils]
When I comment out the code that calls the creates the OdiInstance then the java app executes fine - i.e. writes something to the Essbase log.
The research I have done so far indicates that a classpath is incorrect. If that is the case where do I start looking to correct the classpath? Is it the ODI classpath or the Essabase classpath?
Any tips would be grateful.
Thanks.

You need to import more jars to execute this
following are the jars
1)     bsf.jar
2)     bsh-2.0b2.jar
3)     commons-collections-3.2.jar
4)     eclipselink.jar
5)     odi-core.jar
6)     ojdl.jar
7)     oracle.ucp_11.1.0.jar
8)     persistence.jar
9)     spring-beans.jar
10)     spring-core.jar
11)     spring-dao.jar
12)     spring-jdbc.jar
Once you have this in classpath - your scenario will execute
Hope this helps.

Run a BR or Calc Script within another BR

Is there a way from which I can run one Business Rule/Calculation Script in another Business Rule/Calculation Script (Run one BR/Calc Script within another BR)?
Edited by: 930603 on May 3, 2012 4:44 PM

Hi,
Do you want to run two BR's parallel y, why you are not going for sequences option, you can divide your rule in parts and run the rules in the sequence you want.
run one Business Rule/Calculation Script in another Business Rule/Calculation Script (Run one BR/Calc Script within another BR)?I don't think so you can call one BR from other, if you want the same might be you have to write CDF for calling the BR/CalcScript within the BR. or you can use Essbase Macro option.(+I am not sure for this option+)
Thanks,

How to capture user ID within Calc script, when running?

Client wants to capture run information automatically (user ID - who ran selected calc script ), and save that information in application itself to see who ran it last time, without checking related logs.
User IDs have been enumerated already so if we can pick user ID text, we can set them as number value in Essbase. Expectation is to generate CDF to see related user ID and refer property file to get related number, to save in one of account. Its only possible if we can get in same session when run CDF and check who runs it.
Any possible way to identify user ID from calc script in Essbase?

Is there exist Str to num ifunction n BSO calc script

Hi all,
Do we have any function in Essbase calc script for BSo
Iam using in ASO
StR to Num
Num to Str
same function I need in bso
Which functions can i use insted of this in BSO
Any help would be appriciated

There are no functions that do that. The closest you could get is the @member what will turn a value into a member name. For the functionality you want, you would have to use a Custome Defined Function (CDF). If this is for comparison, there is one already created at https://codesamples.samplecode.oracle.com/servlets/tracking/action/ExecuteQuery?query=essbase1
You will have to log in to get there

How do you stop multiple users executing the same calc script at the same time?

We have an issue when users uplaod a spreadsheet and then run a calc script. at one time we have multiple exectuions of the script running.
This slows up the system and we have to go cancel all the executions and run it again.
Can we stop this and put them on a queue, so only one execution of the calc happens at one time. Or stop multiple executions getting submitted at all.

You could use EXCLUSIVECALC to stop more than one calc running at the same time, although this will apply to all applications on your server. And it doesn't just stop the same calc being launched twice. Easier than the alternatives I can think of though, if it works for you.

@ATTRIBUTESVAL works properly in Calc script but not in Member Formula.

We are using Essbase 11.1.2 –
"Global_Period" is a Dynamic Calc Member. Below is its Member Formula:
"ProjType " is an attribute (text) dimension.
"Global_Period" ="ValidAccount";
IF (@ISLEV ("Total_Expenses", 0) AND @ISMBR("HSP_InputValue") AND @ISLEV ("Version",0) AND
@ISMBR("No_GL_Account") AND @ISLEV ("Scenario",0) AND @ISLEV ("Years",0) AND @ISMBR ("Local")
AND @ISLEV("Tot_Org",0) AND NOT @ISIDesc ("Service_Division") AND @ISLEV("Tot_PRJ",0) )
"Global_Period"->"No_GL_Account"-> @CURRMBR ("Projects") =
1* "ValidAccount"->"Global_Version" ->"Global_Scenario"->&Budget_Year->"Global_Entity"->
"No_GL_Account"->"HSP_InputValue"->"Local"->
@MEMBER(@NAME(@CONCATENATE ("Proj_",@ATTRIBUTESVAL("ProjType"))));
ENDIF
The above Member- Formula is failed to work when opening a Data Form that contain "Global_Period".
The error messages in the log file are as follow:
[Thu Mar 1 16:55:39 2012]Local/Projects/Plan1/admin@Native Directory/1122748736/Error(1200370)
Error executing formula for [Global_Period] (line 1): attempt to cross a null member in function [@X]

Error executing formula for [Global_Period] (line 0): attempt to cross a null member in function [@_VAL]
When converting the "Global_Period" to be a Store member.
The Calc Script below is exactly equivalent to the Formula, and run perfectly with no Errors.
"Global_Period" ="ValidAccount";
FIX ("HSP_InputValue", "Local","No_GL_Account", @RELATIVE ("Total_Expenses", 0),
@RELATIVE ("Version",0), @RELATIVE("Scenario",0), @RELATIVE ("Years",0),
@REMOVE (@RELATIVE ("Tot_Org",0),@IDESCENDANTS ("Service_Division")),
@RELATIVE ("Tot_PRJ",0))
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
"Global_Period"
("Global_Period"->"No_GL_Account" -> @CURRMBR ("Projects")=
1* "ValidAccount"->"Global_Version" ->"Global_Scenario"->&Budget_Year->
"Global_Entity"->"No_GL_Account"->"HSP_InputValue"->"Local"->
@MEMBER(@NAME(@CONCATENATE ("Proj_",@ATTRIBUTESVAL("ProjType"))));
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK OFF;
ENDFIX
For many reasons we prefer to use the Dynamic Calc Formula for "Global_Period".
As result of some checking I discover that the problem is with the function @ATTRIBUTESVAL,
because the formula has worked fine when I replace the @ATTRIBUTESVAL with a string.
Please help, what is the right way to write the formula in order to make it work.
Thanks

Dear Cameron Lackpour,
Thank you very much, for your reply.
I'd given it a try, but it didn't help.
The purpose of this formula is as follow:
We holds 1's (ones) for allowable combinations of "Project_Type and Accounts", namely, each project type has different list of accounts that are allowed for input.
I need to populate the input 1's to all projects (and their children) according to its "ProjType".
The Data forms has periods in columns, thus by putting "Global_Period" (Hide) as the first column, and use "Suppress Missing rows" - for each project (on the "Page") , the form will show just the allowable Accounts in rows.
(we have around 300 Accounts, 50,000 members in Project dimension and around 25 Types of projects).
Please help.
Thanks!

IF Statement with multiple ORs in Calc Script

Hello,
May I know what is the best way to script the following statement in a Member formula, not calc script (can't use Fix statements)
If (A->B->C == 1, 3 or 5 AND X->B->C == Value1)
returnvalue1
ELSE
#Missing.
Basically I am looking for syntax for an IF statement where IF one condition is equal to multiple values as mentioned, then the result is this...
Help is much appreciated. Thanks.
Adi

You won't be able to use a comma separated list, you'll have to repeat the combination. A->B->C == 1 or A->B->C == 3 so on and so forth
If you can give a use case scenario or the logic behind it then there are more chances that you might end up with a nicer solution.

How to make a calc script on a dense dimension ?

Dears,
I want to make a calculation script on a dense dimension where :
- I want to get an input from a member, then make a mathematical calculation , then populate the result in another member at the same dimension .
For More Clarification :
I have the following fix
CALC ALL ;
FIX ("SAR","Working.V01","Budget2012","FY12","G_10","NM_CAT01","Employee General","BegBalance")
"Internal Transportation" = "Monthly Transportation"*30 ;
ENDFIX
-Internal transportation and monthly transportation are 2 members on FB_account dimension (dense dimension) .
Waiting for your response, Thanks in advance.

Dear ,
I appreciate your feedback . But, My problem is that after executing the calc script , No calculation happens .
by another means ,
-If I wrote "Internal transportation" = 500 ; --> It put 500 in it
-If I wrote "Internal transportation" = "Internal transportation" * 100 ; --> No calculation happened but it executed successfully
-if I wrote "Internal transportation" = "Monthly transportation" = 500; --> No calculation happened but it executed successfully
I don't know Why ???

The export file from a calc script - naming and date/time stamp

Here is a simple calc script to export data.
2 questions:
1. Is there an easy way to add a date/time stamp on the name of the data file so that it does not overwrite the older ones every time?
2. I tried to specify the path so that it write to another server. "\\mfldappp011\E:\Exp_AW.txt". It's not working. How should I specify the path ?
Fix (@Relative("Yeartotal",0),"Actual","Working",&ActualYear);
Dataexport "file" "," "C:\Exp_AW.txt" "#MI";
EndFix;
Edited by: user9959627 on Sep 7, 2012 11:25 AM

Probably easiest to call the maxl script from a command line script, then rename the exported file to include the tme stamp and copy/move it to a location.

Assigning a value to a constant in Calc Script

Hi All,
I'm trying to assign a value to a constant in a calc script, but not able to make it work.
I need to get a user entered value from the database such as Indexation Value, and use that many times in my script. Rather than use:
"member1"->"member2"->"member3"->"member4"->"member5"
every time I access the value, I'd like to use:
VAR IndexVal = "member1"->"member2"->"member3"->"member4"->"member5";
and then use IndexVal in the script.
Is this possible?, or do I have to use a substitution variable?
Thanks.

It is possible, but the variable and the calculations that use it must exist in the same Calc Bloack statement (Beginning and ending in parens)

But i can not identify which calculation is referenced and that I understand is what is failing.
Could guide me about that would have to check to find what is generating the error.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi,
One problem is that I can not identify the script because it was not created by me, as I understand this calc is implicit in planning, only runs when you select the option "mass allocate".
The published extract was obtained from the log of the application in which the calculation is running, this was extracted from essbase directory that hosts the application.

OBIEE 11g write back to Essbase and run calc script feature

Hi,
I have a requirement to write back into Essbase Cube and run calc script from OBIEE dashboard.
From what i have search on google, we must deploy additional Java Script into weblogic, but that is before OBIEE 11.1.1.6.
I have 2 question:
- Does OBIEE 11.1.1.6 already supported native write-back to Essbase and running calcscript?
- Anyone has example of the custom java-script for write back and running calcscript?
And another, if there are requirement like this, is it better to install Essbase Add-in on Microsoft Excel and do the what-if analysis there, then just display the report on OBIEE dashboard? (based on user-friendliness and the complexity on maintenance)
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Even I am trying to achieve the same thing as you have mentioned but think that it is not possible to achieve easily in obiee 11.1.1.6, though we do have a work around to perform a writeback in Essbase cube using JAPI as mentioned below.
Also we can call Hyperion reports from OBIEE using Action Links and also pass parameters to the same but dont know if it runs calculation script.
Below link could be useful for you for write back workaround.
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2009/05/25/oracle-bi-ee-10-1-3-4-1-writebacks-to-essbase-using-japi-and-custom-html-part-1/
Let me know in case you have found out anything else related to same.
Thanks,
