Data forms in HFM

Hi
I have created new data forms fordata entry in Administration>> Manage data forms.
But while opening these I get a message that there is no valid columns of data for this
What may be the reason behind this and its solution?

You need to set a POV. If this is the first time you've been in forms, the system defaults to the first member of each dimension. This usually results in several [None] selections and [Year] for period.

  • Error when trying to open Data form in HFM

    Hi,
    I tried to change period in POV-selections from April to May but did not succeed. And after that when I try to open this Data form

    Any ideas what might be wrong?
    All I tried to do is just to edit period in POV-selections -tab.

    I figured a way around this in case anyone has the same problem in the future. I just opened Acrobat Pro X, clicked combine files into PDF, selected the file I wanted, saved the "binder" as PDF then saved another version as Reader Extended PDF. I think this helped because it essentially creaded a whole new PDF with the old PDF in it and getting rid of whater hashes or document properties in the last one that wouldn't allow it to work in Reader. Opens perfectly on other computers.

  • HFM Data Form in Smart View - Improper Suppression

    We have several data forms that are opened by a group of controllers every month to load forecast information to HFM. This data form is opened by all of these users in Excel and submitted back to HFM via Smart View.
    We have instructed all of the users to turn off ALL suppression while working with the data forms because there are some invalid intersections for ICP based on the input entity. The form is rendering properly for all users but one. When he opens the data form it appears to show all of the lines, but then once it fully loads, it is removing/suppressing one line that is an invalid intersection. In checking his Smart View options, I can clearly say that he does not have ANY of the suppression options in use.
    Has anyone experienced this issue? Are there any workarounds? Why would this only happen for one user when 10 others have no issue when using the same file/form/options?
    Your help is appreciated, as always!
    Scott

    Hi Scott,
    If this is only for one user, I doubt something wrong in his profile.
    Ask your IT to have his profile recreated to see if the issue disappears.
    Hope this helps,
    Thank you,

  • How to Add a new Currency in HFM Data form and grid (Rates)

    Hi Gurus,
    Am very new to this forum.
    Can someone explain me how to add a new currency to the existing data for or grid in the Workspace.
    Regards,
    Vinod

    Hi Sandeep,
    To add a new currency in Metadata, just add in Currencies dimension, and to add in Data form-just send the script what you are using as of now for rest of the currencies, or follow the same steps as specified above. or just add the script A#CLORATE.w#Periodic.C2#XYZ in rows of your data form (where XYZ- is the new currency).
    To add a new location in FDM login to FDM web client- click on Metadata--> locations and select the Controls review location where you want to add the data load location, right click and add the new location.

  • HFM Security....can't see any data forms/grids or journals etc.

    Hi,
    I'm missing something obvious here. We are upgrading from 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.1.
    I have setup a Native user and assigned a group called CORPLOAD to it. CORPLOAD has been provisioned with all roles under Financial Application except the very top one called "Application Administrator". It also has been assigned the "Default" and" Provisioning Manage" roles.
    When I log in I can see the tasks, like "Process Journals" but no actual journals. I can see the task "Manage Journal Templates" but no templates. I also do not have access to any of the data forms or data grids - they are empty.
    As soon as I add the "application administrator" I can then see everything. I know its not a filter issue (I checked this).
    The setup is exactly the same as production 9.3.1.
    So there is must be something else that needs to be configured?
    Regards
    Dave

    Thanks JTF,
    Yes, that was it. I had not assigned CORPLOAD to the [default] security class (we have no other security classes).
    I did this through Shared Services->Applications Groups->Financial Applications->(right click)->Assign Access Control.
    Do you know where I would find a report that would show me which users and groups have access to the Security Class and what level? E.g. none, All, Metadata.
    It seems odd to me to get a report I have to step through the entire Assign Access Control process again to get to the security report?

    Has any one came across this issue that I am facing now?
    I have a form in HFM and I exported the form to Excel and the export works fine. but when I import the excel template into form, it was not successful. I have 250 rows in the template. I deleted 50 rows and tried to import and it worked fine . Is there any row limit on this?
    Below here is the error message that I am getting

  • Dynamic period columns in data forms?

    Hi,
    We are running HFM v11.1.1.3
    I have some input data forms that shows some different periods and scenarios, however the periods sometimes needs to be changed, so I was wondering if anyone knows a way in doing this dynamic?
    For January we would like it to be:
    C1=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    C2=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR-1
    C3=S#FYE.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    and in March it should be:
    C1=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    C2=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR-1
    C3=S#FYE.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    C4=S#FYE.Y#CUR.P#CUR-2
    in June and September it should be
    C1=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    C2=S#Actual.Y#CUR.P#CUR-1
    C3=S#FYE.Y#CUR.P#CUR
    C4=S#FYE.Y#CUR.P#CUR-3
    so basically this would require 3 different forms, and with linked forms as well it will be many forms. So if there could be build in some kind of if statement?
    Thank you in advance
    Best regards
    Kenneth

    Hi Kenneth,
    Nobody is answering you because there is no way to do that with Data Forms.
    If you are skilled with Excel, and if you understand the implications of going that path, you can create dynamic Excel grids that send data to HFM using HFM functions.
    Depending on your needs and your budget, you can also create a custom web application that would replace data forms.
    If you want to stick with data forms, then you will need to create 3 forms (+the linked forms you mentioned).
    Not sure that helped...

  • Data form for entering conversion rates

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a data form for input of conversion rates. For example in the line given below I want to create a data form to convert USD to euro and I want to enter 1.05742 through the data form. I am not sure how to select USD and EUR from custom 1 and custom 2 members. where do I see this option?
    Actual; 2005; January; Periodic; [None]; [None]; AverageRate; [ICP None]; USD; EUR; [None]; [None]; 1.05742
    I am new to HFM and any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    That looks right to me. C1 will be USD and C2 will be EUR. Entity will be [None]. To choose USD and EUR in C1 and C2, make sure to change the 'Selector' dropdown box on the form to "Currencies".

  • Dimensions set to Selectable are not selectable w/in Smart View Data Forms

    When trying to use a data form by clicking "Select Form" in the Hyperion toolbar in Excel (not exporting from webspace), Dimensions that are defined as Selectable are not actually selectable within Smartview. Below is a portion of the script:
    BackgroundPOV=S#***.Y#***.w#***.V#***.I#***.C4#***
    SelectablePOVList=P{***}.E{***.[Base]}.C1{***.[Hierarchy]}
    Within the web, the form works fine and everything selectable is selectable. Within smart view, only Entity is selectable. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    HFM 11.1.1.3
    Excel 2007
    Edited by: JL on Aug 4, 2011 12:36 PM

    I have found this and its generally because the dimension is referenced in the column
    i.e Year and period is displayed in the column.
    In HFM you can select the members from the POV but when opening in SmartView you can't
    Solution is to remove the dimension from the col or row.

  • Not able to see data in Hyperion Planning data forms.

    Hi ,
    I created Hyperion planning EPMA application and loaded data in to it. But I am unable to see data in my data forms? Please give me solution for this?

    Hi,
    Here there are 2 things, once your epma heirarchy is ready did you deploy it against your planning App ? and incase if you haven't deployed your planning application, then old outline would be existing in Essbase and if you load data for old outline it will still take into but when you deploy the database gets restructured and older data gets restructured/removed.
    Before going onto that level first check if your load data to essbase completed successfully. and did you load data for the combinations on dataform ? ? Try manually inputting a number through data form and submit and do a refresh to see if value comes up. ? Check your data form settings , if you have enables suppress missing rows/blocks.
    Thanks

  • Get cell value in Planning Data form and using it in a business rule

    Hi Everybody,
    if i set the data type of an Account Member as text, is there a way to get the value inserted by the user in a dataform, turning it as dimensional member and using it in a business rule?
    So, if the user insert the value "USA" in a cell, can i use any functions to tell essbase that "USA" is a dimensional member and then using it in a business rule, for example in a cross-dimension like Period1->FY12->USA?
    I tried to use the function @Member and it doesn't work, but i'm wondering if there is a way that can let me get the value inserted and use it just like a dimensional member. What are the ways that can let user input value that can be used in a business rule? I think one is by using SmartList, is there any other ways? Maybe using variables?? As an alternative i tried to use Prompt Variable but there are too many members on which the rule must run.
    Please help me, i wanna know if i can or not let the user input the member on which the rule must run...
    Thank all guys
    Bye
    Maurizio

    Thanks EW for your answer,
    YesI could use SmartList even if i think it's very tough to handle. My experience on using SmartList in caclc script is not so good. I try to enter in details of my requirement:
    I have 500 account members.
    For each one, I have to calculate the monthly budget by sharing the amount among the months. The user wants to calculate it on the basis of the actual flow(over the months) of an unspecified account of the prior year. The unspecified account must be inserted in a data form.
    So, i could use a Smart List but it colud be of 500 elements and then i should make a rule with as many IF as how many are the accounts. Or im wrong? The only way to use smart list dynamically in a business rule is by referring its values in a IF condition. Or i'm wrong.
    I tried to use execution variable ma it seems don't work. In this case the user must pay attention to write the account correctly, otherwise as you say the rule doesn't work.
    The value in PD0A020 is "PD0A000" (that is a dimensional member). The value in PD0A000 is "hello". In PD0A040 the rule returns "PD0A000" and not "hello" as i would. The function @Member appears to be not able to catch the dimensional member by the value in PD0A000.
    {Example}="test"->"Input"->"Scenario_test"->"FY12"->"PD0A020";
    Fix("test1","Input","Scenario_test","FY12")
    "PD0A040"=@Member({Example});
    endfix
    So, my doubt is: is it possible for Essbase/Planning to use the value inserted in a data form and to turn it in a dimensional member? What are the practicable ways to let the user input/choose the member on which makes the rule run?
    Thank you Ew, thank you guys

  • Security and/or filtering error in data form creation

    Hi,
    I am getting this error when I am trying to preview my data form.

    I have not selected any security/filter settings as of now. Please suggest whats causing this.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jake,
    I did what you suggested,but I am still getting same error.
    Here I would like to point out that. I have selected my application to support multicurrency, but 'HSP_RATES' does not come in Dimension selection drop down. I can see 'HSP_RATES' in Performance settings tab, but I cant see it in Dimensions tab or Evaluation order tab.
    Is this causing problem? Should I add it manually?
    Thanks,
