Creating planning application

hi,
Whats the difference in creating planning application via EPMA and classic planning application in version 11?
Thanks!

Hi,
Are you asking the question what is the difference between EPMA and a classic application.
EPMA is a seperate component to planning and basically it is a GUI for managing hierarchies before pushing it into the planning application.
EPMA can manage metadata for other areas such as HFM or essbase.
Classic planning you can maintain the metadata directory in planning web or you can use other tools such as ODI, DIM or the outline loader.
All the other elements of planning are managed in the same way.
If you want to find out in more detail I suggest having a read of the planning admin guide which can be found here
Cheers

Hi John,
I am facing the same issue. Reconfiguring Web server did not help. It is still not coming up and the link to planning that you have shared here is also not working. I am doing it on RHEL and facing issue with the same. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I checked the mod_jk log which has the following:

Created Planning Application in V4 but cant login

I have this error with my new planning application.
I created a Planning Application using Classic planning/Planning Desktop. It created and pushed into Essbase, but when it tried to login into it using the Web URL it shows my new application in Apps list but does nothing when i try to get in.
Do i need to change any properties file ?
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks folks.

Probably the app is not started. Start the application through the Essbase admin console or through a essbase client.

Are you using a previously configured datasource to create the application?
Perhaps, try with a new data source..

Creating Planning Application on 9.3.1

I'm new to Hyperion Planning and I've trouble creating an application on Workspace.
I want to create a multi-currencies application. Before I creating the application on Workspace, I've created a database in SQL server and instance, created datasource via Configuration Utility. After creating the SQL database and datasource, I went to Workspace->Navigate->Administer->Classic Application Administration-> Planning Administration. I entered required information and selected corresponding datasource and instance, etc. When I was done, I clicked "finish". However, after a few seconds, an error occurred. The error message is "an error occurred while processing this page. Check the log for more details." I looked through the log files in Hyperion folder. I couldn't find a log which describes Hyperion Planning activities. The login ID I used has "application creation" right in Shared Services.
Does anyone come across similar issue? What are the possible resolution to the problem? What log file does the error message refer to?
Appreciated if someone could shred some light on this.
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
look if the cubes exist in essbase. If they exist delete them and retry to deploy the application.
Is the User in Shared Services Native Directory or is it external authenticated? I had to use one from Native Directory to do that.

Create Planning Application for the first time without using workspace

hi,all:
I come across a problem:The Hyperion Planning Application isn't configured into the workspace,but i have to create a Hyperion Planning Application for the first time.So, have any other methods to solve this problem? Can I use other tools or something to create it?
thanks very much

Hi,John,Thanks for your quick reply.
I think after install Hyperion Planning,at first time can't create application in this address:http://localhost:8300/HyperionPlanning/ ,usually create it in workspace.
Is the address you said different from http://localhost:8300/HyperionPlanning/?
thanksI gave you the address to create a planning application directly - http://localhost:8300/HyperionPlanning/AppWizard.jsp
Notice the AppWizard.jsp on the end.
If it version 11 you will be able to create your datasource from that location, if it is version 9 then you will have to create a datasource first from the configuration utility.

Is ther any specific utility for creating planning application automaticall

Hi,
Do we some utility for creation of Hyperion planning application with min parameters that we used to create using app wizard?
I mean if we have the utility then we can schedule a script and run the script for creation of application.
Later we can develop this with metadata loading with any automation tools like HAL etc.........
Please let me know if we have some thing like that?
Regards
Venkat G

Urgh, it's killing me to write this, but wouldn't EPMA do what you want? Not automated exactly, but if I were in the business of quickly spinning of multiple Planning apps that maybe use some common hierarchies, that's a product I might look at.
Having said that, in the real world I'd probably look at ODI, especially now that it can drive all dimensions.
How many applications and how often do you think you're going to create them? Deletes? Why?
You will put the lie to the "3 to 6 months to implement a Planning app" when you finally get it all working. 3 to 6 minutes? :)

Unable to create new Planning application

I try create Planning Application:
http://<myserver>:19000/workspace -> Log On -> Navigate -> Administer -> Classic Application Administration -> Planning Administration
and receive an error on the page "Create Application":
An error occurred while processing this page. Check the log for details.
If I try http://<myserver>:8300/HyperionPlanning/AppWizard.jsp - I have this error too.
Help, please

Hi,
I have the same problem. I installed 9.3.1 exactly in the order given in documentation.
I also configured all products and planning data sources successfully.
Products I Installed:
Oracle Database
1. Shared Services
2. Essbase
3. EPMA
4. Reporting and Analysis
5. HFM
6. Planning
I have created a user given access to all the glbal roles available but still get this error.
Similarly in the Essbase user properties of (the default admin user and the user created by me), under Application Access type, only Essbase is enabled. Planning is disabled.

Can you copy Classic Planning Applications?

Hi,
Is it possible to take an existing Classic Planning application, and make a copy (or duplicate version) of it? For Essbase applications, this is a simple process in EAS, just right click the application and hit Copy. However, while this method will copy a Planning applicaiton's outline in EAS and nominally show a new application in Enterprise View, it does not actually create another application in the Planning workspace. This makes sense, because the process for creating Planning Applications is not done in EAS. There are two questions I have, and an answer to either would be appreciated. First, is it even possible to make a copy of a Classic Planning Application, in order to allow two different admins to work seperately in two independent applications that both begin with the same dimensions, outline hierarchy, data forms, task lists, user provisions, and initial data set? Second, if it is possible, what is the process, or could someone point me in the direction of where I may find this in guides? Thank you.

Thanks,
I am a bit confused by what you mean when you say "replace SQL repository". I am not very experienced in this area, I am using SQL Developer to access the RDBMS. Could you explain what the steps are for this? I can find the tables that are created when a new Planning App is made, but I'm not sure what they mean, so the more specific you can be, the more helpful it would be.
Also, when in Shared Services, I select the artifacts I want to migrate, and then click Define Migration, bringing up the Migration Wizard. However, after I select the source (which is the Old Planning App), I click next to select the target, and the screen goes blank white and seems to be stuck. I can exit out of the screen, but I have let it load for 20 minutes now several times, and it just stays on this blank white screen, like the Migration Wizard has frozen. Any ideas of what might be causing the Migration Wizard to go blank?
*Additional note: I am also no longer able to check the Artifacts box for Relational Data in Shared Services for any of my applications, and am not able to open up the Tree to expand it. The artifacts for Plan Type, Configuration, Global Artifacts etc. can still be selected.

Error creating a new Hyperion Planning Application

Hi Everybody,
I'm trying to create a new application in Hyperion 9, but I have a problem because when I configure the application in the wizard, that show me an error "An error ocurred while processing this page. Check the log for details".
When I review EAS I see the application but database is not create and the application in Planning doesn't appear.
I tried checking logs but I never found something (No error in the app server or Logs of application).
The steps that I followed:
1. Create a new schema.
2. Configure Datasource with new schema.
3. Configure App with wizard.
Regards.

First of all you will only see the Application in EAS, the databases are not created until you create them from within planning.
What I suggest is you delete the application in EAS otherwise it will keep failing, then run planning in the foreground and not as a service, so start it up from the start menu, this way an errors will be outputted to the command window.
Then try again creating an application.
Cheers
John
