Creating alias for BEx dimensions in crystalreport

I need help with creating alias formula for BEx dimensions in crystal report. Iam trying to follow the book, but i don't know what should be the result.

Hi,
Crystal Reports is using the technical names of the InfoObjects itself so those names should be familiar assuming you also know the BEx Query.
If you want to create some form of an alias the option I can see is to create a set of formulas which simply include the field and then use those formulas as part of any other formulas.

How to create Hierarchies for a Dimension?

Hi,
How to create Hierarchies for a Dimension in Multidimensional Models? Could you please suggest some document provides step by step instructions to create Multidimensional Model?
Thanks

Hi M Thiyagarajan,
connect dimension to first level and after that connect that level to another one and so on. For level - each additional outgoing connection means additional hierarchy.

Error while create aggmap for concatenated dimension ???

How can I create aggmap for concatenated dimension ??
I created dimensions named awprod_lvl0 ,awprod_lvl1,awprod_lvl2,awprod_lvl3,awprod_lvl4 and concatenated with a dimension awproducts. Then I created a parent relation awproducts.parents and mapped into the relational tables using sql fetch procedure .Iam able to see values in the olap work sheet .When i tried to create aggmap for different aggregation , it is throwing an error??It is telling that awproducts and awpro_lvl4_id cannot appear because they share same base level dimension...
can anyone help in resolving this problem?????

Jithesh, could you provide the exact definitions for the aggmaps, dimensions and relations that you're using?

Creating UDA for a dimension member

Hi All,
when I am creating UDA for a dimension member in my planning application I get the following error.
The associated dimension ID has not been set for this property. Do you want to create the association now?
Can anyone please let me knwo wahts this error?
Thanks

I take this is an EPMA application, you have to create dimension association between the UDA property and the UDA dimension.
Have a read of :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epma_admin/epma_create_assoc.html

Creating Alias for command which contains two piped cmdlet

hi friends
i use powershell 4.0. is it possible to create Alias for cmdlet which is piped to another cmdlet?
i need to use this command frequently:
Get-windowsFeature | select-object name ( to see only "name" column)
i checked & non of the following commands works:
new-alias myalias Get-windowsFeature | select-object name
or
new-alias myalias "Get-windowsFeature | select-object name"
any solution please?
thanks in advanced

You can't do that with an alias, it only works to substitute the name of a cmdlet or function, and takes a string value as it's argument. You can accomplish the same effect with a function, which takes a script block argument:
function myalias {Get-windowsFeature | select-object name}
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

Create Alias for BSP

Hello
I.m trying to create Alias for BSP
When i try to create an external Alias and to save i get the folowing message:
Service /sap/bc/solman/defaultUser Cannot be accesed!
Message no. SHTTP009
Diagnosis
You have not entered a handler, and the other services in URL also do not have a handler. This means the service cannot be accessed by HTTP request
Procedure
Check whether this is intentional, and if necesary, enter a handler

Hello,
I've read the thread and i've done the steps from there. I've enterede in se80 and published WEBGUI and SYSTEM. but when i try to create the alias i still get the same error. "no handler defined". The connection to the sistem with webgui works. I think that i need to publish another service. I need to use the service under: sap/bc/solman/defaultuser.

Alias for custom dimensions

We are trying to display aliases for some of our custom dimensions in an oracle table.
So far, bringing in aliases for standard dimensions has been a breeze-from the HSP_OBJECT table.(Since the member name and alias name have consequential object id's).
But for the custom dimension and it alias, there seems to be no easy connecting factor.(when the members are 'Level 0', they seem to follow an order-but not otherwise). I even tried looking it up using the HSP_ALIAS table.
Does anybody have any suggestions?

In FDM the Default LOAD Action generates a FIX statement in Essbase to clear the intersection of Category, Period and Entity. This section has to be modified for each client to include other Dimensions you don't want to clear with you load. I added the Year to the code already. I have to add additional UDs to the FIX statement UD1 and UD2 and am not sure how to do this.
Dim strDimNameUD1
Dim strDimNameUD2
strEntity = ""
strCurEnt = ""
Do While Not objFRead.AtEndOfStream
strLineRead = objFRead.ReadLine
strCurEnt = DW.Utilities.fParseString(CStr(strLineRead), CInt(intFldCount), CInt(intEntityFld), " ")
'Check to see if we're on the first line. If so we must calc the first entity
If strEntity = "" Then
strEntity = strCurEnt
bolFirstLine = RES.FDMTrue
End If
If strEntity <> strCurEnt Or bolFirstLine = RES.FDMTrue Then
strTargYear = API.POVMgr.fPeriodKey(CStr(strPer(0))).strTargetYear
strDimNameUD1 = API.strDimNameUD1
strDimNameUD2 = API.strDimNameUD2
'*** CALC SCRIPT ***
'NOTE: CALC SCRIPT CAN BE MODIFIED For Each CUSTOMER
'Clear the intersection of (Category, Period, Entity - added Year to customize)
strClear = "Fix(""" & strTargYear & """,""" & strDimNameUD1 & """,""" & strDimNameUD2 & """,""" & strTCat & """,@IDESCENDANTS(""" & strEntity & """))" & vbcrlf
strClear = strClear & "CLEARDATA """ & strTPer(0)& """;" & vbcrlf
strClear = strClear & "EndFix"

Create hierarchy for a dimension in Oracle Express Administrator

I have a lookup table called 'Location'. This lookup table has a primary key PKLOC which is made up of 2 columns, State Varchar2(20) and City Varchar2(20). This primary key obviously is a lookup for a dimension of one of my cube and the data in the primary key is hierarchical with 2 levels, namely state and city. I need to import this data into my dimension, Location, using Relational import, in the following form.
eg. Level 1 Level 2
MD ---- Odenton, Baltimore, Fort Meade
VA ---- Dulles, Fair Fax
where MD and VA will come from the column State Varchar2(20) and Odenton, Baltimore, Fort Meade
Dulles and Fair Fax will come from the column City Varchar2(20).
The values in my lookup table will look like this
State City
MD Odenton
MD Baltimore
MD Fort Meade
VA Dulles
VA Fair Fax
how do I import it.

You need to do this in your source table.
The source table can look something like this
qtr_id, qtr_name, month_id, month_name
1 , Qtr1 , 101 , january
1 , Qtr1 , 102 , febuary
1 , Qtr1 , 103 , march
2 , Qtr2 , 104 , april
2 , Qtr2 , 105 , may
2 , Qtr2 , 106 , june
Then map it to the dimension, and maintain it.
Keep in mind that the member(id) fields need to be unique. I.E january 2007 and january 2006 cannot have the same id.

Creating alias for Web access to SQL Server Reporting Services

Hello colleagues.
I have MS SQL Server 2012 with SQL Server Reporting Services in domain "domain.local". In the local network at the entrance via Web browser to "mdr.domain.local/Reports" get into Reports of SQL Server Reporting Services and it's work fine.
Necessary that the SQL Server Reporting Services could include via Web browser from alias "reports2.domain.local/Reports". To do this:
1) I created a new A record "reports2" in the DNS leading to IP mdr.domain.local
2) in Reporting Services Configuration Manager on a tab "Web Service URL" in "Report Server Web Service URLs" I add new record "http://reports2:80/ReportServer" (host Header Name: reports2)
BUT "reports2.domain.local/Reports" is not work. When entering to "reports2.domain.local/Reports" I see page "An error in the security certificate for this Web Site..." and when I click "Continue to ...", then "Unable
to find a web page."
What and where I must add/change for work of alias "reports2.domain.local/Reports" by analogy with "mdr.domain.local/Reports"?
I hope for your help.
Thanks.

WooW it's work!!! Thank you
JJordheim you are the best!
With my PKI I create new certificate for "reports2.domain.local" and Import it to MDR server (in Personal). I create new network adapter and configure Reporting Services Configuration on "Report manager URL" tab (for SSL):
mdr.domain.local - certificate "mdr.domain.local" - network adapter №1
reports2.domain.local - certificate "reports2.sygroup.local" - network adapter №2
And all work fine.
If I configure all to 1 network adapter it's doesn't work.
Thanks for help!

Can't create an alias for User home folder for a second user

Please help:
I can't make an alias of a User home folder of a second user. I can successfully make an alias of a home folder of the first user. The computer says the folder is in use and to wait for some activity to complete, or that I don't have enough privileges. There are no activities happening and both accounts are administrator level. Is this a behavior of OS 10.5.6? I created alias for the two users before, but had unrelated problems and wiped the drive, re-installed 10.5.6 and now I can't do it.
Much thanks and aloha - Rocky

hi Petar,
Wish it was that simple where i can just change the ID to ACT but unfortunately alot of our users like to hardcode there currentview and changing the scenario dimensions would take a big effort and alot of support work. We had changed one of the dimension members before and we got phone calls asking why the report doesn't work for weeks. Do you know if the NW version of BPC has that capability?
Thanks,
Elmer

Alias for dimension member

How can you create the alias for the actual dimension name / member.
We have multiple languages and want to be able to translate the dimension name. The dimension alias in EPMA actually gives it the name for the dimension not the alias so how do you set up the alias? Seems silly they named it an alias when it isn't an alias.
We tried adding the alias in EAS but no luck there.
We are on version 11.1.2.1

The dimension alias in EPMA should not be confused with the aliases asociated to the languague alias tables for members. If you look at the epma you will notice that dimension alias is a system property not a planning property. There is no way to associate that system property to your alias tables in planning. when you look at the planning properties for the dimension you will see that there is no way to indicate an alias for a dimension node, because this is not a property for planning at the dimension node level.
Instead what happens is that when you first deploy an application you can determine whether you want to display/deploy it with the alias as name, or the actual name or both in one or the other order. That is the use of the alias for dimensions for planning. But you cannot have multiple language aliases for the Dimension.
