  • Datasource set to NONE after classic to EPMA conversion

    Hello everyone.
    We recently transformed a classic Hyperion application to EPMA.
    Everything seems to be alright and the application is working fine after conversion.
    However, when performing application deploys, we've noticed that the datasource appears to be set to NONE, as seen in the following image:
    https://c69ee7db-a-62cb3a1a-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/ktratsites/Home/deploy_none.png
    The system seems to be respecting the actual datasource that we set up for this application (name it APPDSCR), but the "Deploy" dialog window shows this NONE.
    Should we be worried about this?
    Is this a known issue of transformed applications?
    Is there a way so the actual datasource is shown again instead of NONE?
    Thank you.
    Best regards,

    Hi again.
    I'm finding a new issue related to this topic.
    The application we transformed from Classic to EPMA exists in two environments: DEV and PRO.
    It happened the PRO application was updated with new dimension members, hence the DEV application should be updated, too, so we decided to perform a migration from APPNAME PRO to APPNAME DEV. Everything seems ok as of this point.
    I exported the EPMA local dimensions (all dimensions are local in these applications) from APPNAME PRO, then proceeded to import them in APPNAME DEV.
    When I tried to redeploy APPNAME DEV, I got an error message. The log reads:
    [21-mar-2013 12:20:00]: An Exception occurred during Application deployment.: You cannot change the Default Currency after deploying. You must select USD as the Default Currency before redeploying the application.
    This makes no sense at all. The default currency for both applications has allways been ARS. However, the system shows the deployed application's default currency is USD. I'm working this via SR with Oracle.
    I run a diagnostics test on both applications, and both failed the "Deployed status but not in product" test, as seen here:
    https://sites.google.com/site/ktratsites/Home/diagnostics.png?attredirects=0
    I made a dummy move and chose "Retrieve potential deployed locations". This allowed the correct datasource to be shown in the "deploy application" dialog box instead of NONE, but didn't resolve the problem.
    BTW, FinFu, the applications do not exists anymore in Classic Planning Administration.
    All in all, I don't know whether all this verbose clarifies something to you or not.

  • Classic to EPMA automation

    Hello,
    Can someone tell me if there is a utility for automating the Classic to EPMA conversion instead of using "Transform classic to EPMA" in workspace?
    Thanks

    Hi there
    I don't think there is a utility that will do this. I can't think of a way unless you scripted the EPMAFileGenerator.exe to run or something like that.
    Why do you need to automate the conversion? In my experience this is a one time activity that doesn't take too long..
    Thanks

  • Hyperion Planning Classic or EPMA?

    Hi,
    We are creating new Hyperion Planning applications (11.1.2.2.300) and it is time to decide if we should continue using Hyperion Planning Classic or move to
    EPMA. We are already using Calculation Manager, but not Dimension and Application Library. Currently, we have DRM installed and we bring all Metadata
    from DRM into Oracle tables. We are using ODI to load data/Metadata from Oracle tables to Hyperion Planning / Essbase. I heard that Hyperion Planning Classic may go way in near future. I'm not aware of any ODI KM for EPMA but I know that EPMA has improved a lot recently. Any advice or comments on either way will be great appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Caio

    It is definitely not going away, if you take 11.1.2.3 there was lots of new functionality introduced for classic and not so much for EPMA, if you look at Oracle's cloud solution it is classic only as it runs on Linux and no windows which EPMA still requires.
    If you are already using DRM and ODI ask yourself what benefit you will get from EPMA, if you feel you will gain from EPMA then try it out, it is long old debate classic vs EPMA which everybody has there owns views on so there is no definite right or wrong but I know from experience which one I prefer

  • Classic to EPMA and alias

    All,
    Version is 11.1.2.1 with EPMA patch 11804477.
    Intially there are no EPMA applications and no dimesnions in Shared library / application library.
    When transformed classic application to epma, dimensions are migrated as local dimensions. Then right click dimensions and selected Share Dimension option to migrate them to Shared dimension library (master view). Once the dimension is shared, Aliases of members getting lost.
    Tried to share the alias dimension before any other dimension. Still didn't work. Is there a particular sequence or is it expected. Any help greately appreciated.
    Thanks
    Krishna

    Jusdt out of curiosity is the Alias missing in the shared library or when you view the alias property in the appview? Have you activated all associations in the appview? If you do so does this bring in the property? If I recall right sometimes the associated properties aren't available except in the appview and with the correct associations activated.

  • Planning EPMA migration using LCM

    Hi Experts,
    Kindly advice how can we migrate EPMA Planning data?
    As per document:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_lifecycle_management/frameset.htm?ch07s04s03.html
    >
    Planning data migration is not supported in Lifecycle Management.Does it different if we use Essbase Data migration using LCM under essbase Node?
    Ver: 11.1.2 (EPMA Plannning)
    Regards
    Kumar

    Hi Alp,
    Thanks for the help.
    It means I should fallow
    Step 1: Migrate security and all artifacts of EPMA Planning using LCM except Planning Data - OK
    Step 2: Export/Import Essbase data using EAS/Maxl Script – seems OK
    Q1: we have option of essbase data under essbase node while migrate essbase application/Database using LCM, Why can't we just migrate Planning data using LCM itself?
    Regards

  • Classic Vs EPMA and Calc Manager in 11.1.2.3

    I'm trying to remember if it is possible to use the Classic mode in 11.1.2.3 or if you are finally forced to EPMA and Calc Manager? Does anyone know?
    We are looking at doing an upgrade and want to make sure we pick the right version.
    Thanks

    You can use Classic metadata management in 11.1.2.3. You can also use EPMA with "Classic" rules if you'd like.

  • Classic vs EPMA

    Hi All,
    Why many implementations will be Classic application oriented than EPMA ? For that matter even HFM also. Were there any significance performance issues exists in EPMA ? What are the draw backs of EPMA over Classic Application creation
    Thanks,
    PVR

    In 11.1.1.3 we did see some significant performance issues when rebuilding dimensions. We had a customer dimension of approximately 28,000 members that we needed to refresh daily. Using EPMA it was several hours for the first load and up to six hours for refreshes. Performing the same process using outline loader and classic was a consistent 10 minutes. We did log an SR and run it through the support process hoping that future releases would optimize this.
    Between the above issue and some problems with Planning loosing connectivity with Calculation manager we went with the rock-solid Classic vs. new fangled EPMA/Calculation manager. When you have a tight deadline and no room for error testing new things and dealing with those kinds of issues is a non-starter.
    Your mileage may vary and be prepared to have an alternative if you need to change. Rebuilding an app from EPMA into classic isn't the end of the world, just if you need a couple of days to do it and you are doing it on short notice it's sometimes not fun.
    Other folks thoughts?

  • 11.1.1.3  Dropping users from groups during EPMA migration

    Gurus,
    I'm migrating shared services between environments as part of a 16-step migration process using LCM. I'm using MSAD users and Native groups. Groups migrate, but the users drop out. Has anyone else seen this? Is there a workaround?
    Thanks!!

    I have not trusted LCM with migrating the Shared Services Security in an 11.1.1.3 environment. I stick with the css import/export utility. You can find it on the Shared Services server in the following directory ([Drive]:\Hyperion\common\utilities\CSSImportExportUtility). There is documentation on how to use and samples in the zip file.
    Good Luck!

  • Migrating planning Application EPMA to classic

    Hi Everyone,
             I've already googled this question, but did not find any important information. So, can anyone help me on that ?
            I've been requested to convert a Hyperion Planning app from EPMA structure to a Planning Classic.  I've already know that there is a wizard in workspcae where you can  convert from Classic to EPMA, but I'm not sure if is possible to convert it back to classic.
          Is it possible using this wizard  or there is no way to do that ?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    There is no wizard to convert it back, in the planning system database, HSPSYS_PROPERTIES there is a property_name called EDIT_DIM_ENABLED, if it is in EPMA mode this is set to false, in classic it is set to true.
    In that table the properties are per application so you need to find the application id = HSPSYS_APPLICATION and match match it to the property_id and this will give the info you need to change the value.
    Any changes require a restart.
    Please note this does not remove it from EPMA you have to work out a process to remove that e.g. delete the app, recreate, etc
    Cheers

  • Classic app changed to epma application without warning

    Hi!
    I have an application which was initially created as classic planning application. (version 931)
    Today when I opened this application I noticed that dimension members were not editable any more, which led me to think that application has "evolved" to an epma application.
    I do not remember having upgraded application (have just checked if it was upgradeable, even today it is upgradeable???).
    When I browse application library this application is not visible anywhere there. So it seeems that it is not an epma application, but it does not have the classic application features either.
    Can I somewhere check whether this application is currenty classic or epma?
    Is it possible to copy epma application to classic application using copy app (just wild question...) I think i already know the answer, but has anybody tried?
    kind regards,
    user637777
    Edited by: user637777 on 10.12.2009 5:24

    Have you eve used the EPMA file generator as I have seen it change the classic settings so it looks to be an EPMA application without warning.
    You can revert it back go into the planning system tables.
    First look in the HSPSYS_APPLICATION, note down the APP_ID for the planning app in question.
    Next go into the table HSPSYS_PROPERTIES, look at column PROPERTY_NAME = EDIT_DIM_ENABLED for the ID you had in the step above, change the PROPERTY_VALUE from false to true.
    Restart Planning application service.
    Ok?

  • New ledger Now..or Classic than migrate later

    Goodmorning everyone,
    We are implementing mySAP ERP ECCV.6 and we have to decide verysoon whether we go with newledger or Classic ledger than migrate.  We made all the reasearch about the benefits of new GL and we like it.  However to minimize the risk involved with going with newledger is there anyone that can answer the following questions:
    We would like to know the cost of the migration service package from classic GL to New GL,
    - What is the cost of the migration service package available from SAP? and how long would a typical migration from Classic to Newlwdger will take?
    - When will SAP stop supporting the Classic GL?
    - Any experiences going Bigbang with Newledger ECC 6?
    - What is the level of support available from SAP if we go-live with the new ledger? Issues, bugs and speed of resolution.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Andy,
    Just a suggestion - Service specific questions are best answered by SAP themselves. You could get in touch with SAP service directly to get better clarity on your questions.

  • Classic Planning applications vs PMA Applications

    Hello Experts,
    "For Classic Planning applications, databases are created and maintained within Planning. For
    Performance Management Architect applications, applications are created in Performance
    Management Architect and deployed to Planning."
    Can anyone explain me, what is better to install --> Classic Planning Application or Performance Management Architect Application? Which is easier to work, what are the advantages and disadvantages? I´ve planned to install Planning 11.1.1.3.
    Thanks a lot!

    Here is my 2 cents.
    I just did EPMA and was told by many that they aren't using it or haven't used it so didn't have much back up.
    But I have to tell you I like EPMA much better that Classic planning once you get the hang of it. Also this is where Oracle is going with the product you might as well jump on the band wagon sooner rather than later (ie get used to Classic Planning then having to make the switch).
    I find that Classic Planning requires a lot of clicks to get some stuff done and is a bit more streamline in EPMA.
    That said EPMA still needs a lot of work. For example your Alias are kind of hidden in Dimension mode. Where I would rather the default be visible instead of having to go to alias and hit F2 to see 1 or all of them.
    One of the biggest reasons I like EPMA is Calc Manager. Business Rules sucks if you have to do a lot of calc (way way too many clicks). So as soon as I saw the power of Calc Manager I will never go back to Classic planning and business rules.
    Still EPMA is where things are going so you should go there first unless you find a bug then fall back to classic.
    One approach people have done though is to create the environment in classic planning and migrate it to EPMA. But if you don't know classic just load direct to EPMA in my opinion.
    Let's see what others say.
