Could not set values for dimension in disc R2

Question

We have a star schema with 11 dimensions.
We have got the data in the analytic workspace. Now we are trying to create a cross-tab workbook using the wizard in Discoverer Plus R2. We were trying to have the slice of data based upon only Security Type dimension and Maturity dimension.
Now the tool is asking us to put default values for all other dimensions.
I could set the desired values for DIM_ASSET_CLASS and DIM_COUNTRY (which are first two). But I could not do it for DIM_CURRENCY (which is the third in the list).
I click on the “more…” but it never came back with data. Same happened for rest of the dimensions. Hence no data came on the sheet when I click on the “Finish” button. I observed that all those dimensions, in question, the tool has taken defaults (the first available records for each dimension) and which combination does not exists.
Why the tool is behaving like this? Am I doing anything wrong?
Also, when I tried to create a worksheet with all eleven dimensions it did not produce any results. Could you please suggest what may be wrong?

Answer 1

In the Create User UI Task, add an action task which sets the MX_PASSWORD and MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD attributes
In the To Identity Store Pass use the following mappings
     mskeyvalue     %mskeyvalue%
     MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD     $FUNCTION.sap_encryptPassword()$$
     MX_PASSWORD     $FUNCTION.sap_encryptPasswordMD5()$$
     changeType     modify
This causes the system to generate a password. Note we haven't got the MX_PASSWORD field in our Create User UI Task
For Password Reset adding the MX_PASSWORD to the UI is all that's required. When set from the UI the password policy is invoked and the appropriate tasks mapped on the Password Policy Tab of the Identity Store Configuration are triggered. You need to tick Enable password provisioning.
From the Help file:
Select this check box to specify that a two-way encrypted version of the password (MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD) should be stored separately to be used for password provisioning. This is in addition to the hashed password (MX_PASSWORD), which is used for authentication.
Under the section General - Event Handling there is no documentation describing these three event fields - but I think they are linked to the MX_PASSWORD attribute events. We're not currently using the other two Event Handling tasks for Change Password and Disable Account.
We've linked out AD password change tasks to the General - Event Handling - Modify task.
I hope this helps.
