Data Integration from Oracle GL to Hyperion Planning

Hi all,
Can I knw the steps for extarcting the from Oracle GL Tables to Hyperion Planning?
We have installed hyperion 9.3.1 and ODI 10.
Please let me know how will we do this process by using ODI?
Thanks

Hi User##########,
In a nutshell you need to do the following...
1. Create a Project in ODI
2. Define your Source and Target data stores in Topology
3. Import the appropriate Knowledge Modules
4. Reverse Engineer your Source and Target modules to create a model
5. Create an integration to load from your Source (Oracle GL) to your Target (Hyperion Planning -- I actually prefer to load the data directly to Essbase)
I just did this last month. When loading the data I used an Essbase load rule to ensure Essbase knew the column order.
I was also able to load data via ODI from a flat file WITHOUT a load rule but the order of the data in the file was very important. I was also not able to substitute or alter the information in the integration when this was done. So in the end I still needed to have a load rule handy.
I'd recommend reading up on the ODI documentation for this -- some of it is actually quite good. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/nav/portal_6.htm Check out the "Oracle Data Integrator Adapter for Hyperion xxx" section.

P.S. Check out John Goodwin's blog -- there's some neat stuff in there and you'll probably figure out some neat stuff on your own too.

Data Integration from E-Biz Suite to Hyperion Planning

Hi Experts,
I am using EPM 11.1.1.1.0.
I have a requirement of integrating data from Oracle Gl to Hyperion.
I am going to use ODI for achieving the same but i observed a fact in GL around which i need some help.
Oracle GL maintains a relation between the entities and acconuts, (e.g a particular entity budgets against some specific accounts) ,however i do not see how in Hyperion I can replicate the same between the Entity and Accounts dimensions.
Can somebody please put some light on this...?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards.

Alicia,
It sounds like you're talking about cross-validation rules. There are two issues this lack of functionality presents in Hyperion Planning:
1) You want forms to be dynamic so that users only see the Entity/Account combinations that are relevant.
2) You want security to prevent users from sending data to invalid Entity/Account combinations.
Hyperion Planning doesn't support this requirement well, although there are some workarounds to "simulate" cross-dimensional security.

DATA EXTRACTION FROM ORACLE & SYBASE

Hello members...
Good day. This is my first posting in this site. I am new to Oracle and have a question regarding Data extraction from Oracle and Sybase.
My project has two applications one having Oracle as the database and the other has Sybase as the database. On the proposed production schedule, there would be a interface data update from the Oracle database to the Sybase database.
My aim is to check if the data update is in sync after the update. We plan to extract the data from the two databases (Oracle and Sybase) and compare in a Third Party tool. We have the tool to compare. Can any of you suggest a nice data extraction tool. I have to set this data extraction as a batch in the nightly batch schedule.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Krishna Kumar...

Sybase provides the best data extraction utility called BCP. You can load and extract data. It is very user friendly. From your unix prompt if you type in BCP ? you will all the switches and
help messages you need to use. It is so simple.
Oracle dosn't have such a utility to extract data from table.
You need to write a Stored procedure and use UTF_FILE package to
extract data from table and write into a file.

How can I upload date data, like 2015/03/23 to Hyperion planning 11.1.2.3 ?

Hi all,
how can I upload date data, like 2015/03/23 to Hyperion planning 11.1.2.3 ?
Not necessary do it by FDM, please let me know if there is a way to do it.
Thanks a lot in advance.

FDM is not the best tool for doing something like this as it loads direct to Essbase and doesn't have the same support for loading text and date values that you get when loading this type of data via the Planning layer. Take a look at using the Outline Load Utility, the sage John Goodwin has a detailed description on his blog - More to life than this...: Planning 11.1.2.2.300 Outline Load Utility Enhancements Part 2 - on how to do this from a relational source although the bulk of it holds true if you were loading from a flat file.

Problem with date format from Oracle DB

Hi,
I am facing a problem with date fields from Oracle DB sources. The date format of the field in DB table is 'Date base type is DATE and DDIC type is DATS'.
I mapped the date fields to Date characters in BI. Now the data that comes to PSA is in weird format. It shows like -0.PR.09-A
I have changing the field settings in DataSource to internal and external and also i have tried mapping these date fields to text fields with out luck. All delivers the same format.
I have also tried using conversion routines like, CONVERSION_EXIT_IDATE_INPUT to change format. It also delivers me the same old result.
If anybody of you have any suggestions or if anybody have you experienced such probelms, Please share your experience with me.
Thanks in advance.

Varada

Thanks for all your reply. I can only the solutions creating view in database. I want some solution to be done in BI. I appreciate if some of you have idea in it.
The issue again in detail
I am facing an issue with date fields from oracle data. The data that is sent from Oracle is in the format is -0.AR.04-M. I am able to convert this date in BI with conversion routine in BI into format 04-MAR-0.
The problem is, I am getting data of length 10 (Output format) in the format -0.AR.04-M where the month is not in numericals. Since it is in text it is taking one character spacing more.
I have tried in different ways to convert and increased the length in BI, the result is same. I am wondering if we can change the date format in database.
I am in puzzle with the this date format. I have checked other Oracle DB connections data for date fields in BI, they get data in the format 20.081.031 which will allow to convert this in BI. Only from the system i am trying creating a problem.

How to lock data independently for several groups in Hyperion Planning?

I 'm developing a forecast application using Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 where the users shall be able to enter their monthly forecast numbers. We have two groups of users. Each group may have up to two forecast updates per month. The groups are independent – say, Group A may have one update for August and they want the numbers to be there by August 10th, while the Group B may have two updates for the same month with the first update to be completed by July 20th and second – by August 5th. Nobody knows in advance how many updates they are going to have for the month and when they are going to have them. Nothing should prohibit the users from updating their forecast numbers for the future months – say, they may enter their September forecast in July.
Managers of both groups want to make sure that users don't change forecast numbers after the month close. If they plan to have two updates per month – they want data from the 1st update to be locked (become read-only) before they have 2nd update, and data from 2nd update locked after the month close; if they plan to have only one update per month – they want it locked after the month close.
Any suggestions how I may structure the dimensions of this application to make sure that if I lock first August update for Group B on, say, August 3rd, the other group still can have it open until August 10th?
Thanks!

Hi John
Well i have working knowledge in ODI, i did whole complete cycle and i did customization project for Oracle EBS to Data warehouse though ODI.

Eample:
In EBS HR we have Employee Number in Per_all_people_f but in Hyperion Planning Dimension is ONLY Employee.
Your response highly appreciated.

Oracle Financials or Hyperion Planning for variance analysis??

We are considering Hyperion Planning for our Departmental budgets/forecasts and I'm have a disagreement with a few piers. Was hoping you could help. It's my contention that the budgets/forecasts AND actuals should be populated in Hyperion Planning. A few of my piers contend that the budgets/forecats should be housed in Hyperion Planning and pushed down to Oracle Financials for variance analysis - in order to provide drill back capability into the transacations that caused the variance.
Since H.P. is a consolidated system, I would think it's impossible to budget at a summary account level in H.P. and push it to base level/transaction level within Oracle Financials (one to many). In my view, the actuals should flow up from Oracle Financials, via FDM, into H.P. where variance analysis can take place? I would think drill back capability could be provided via FDM within Planning?
Anyway, was hoping to get your thoughts.

Hi,
We are currently in the final phase of implementing Oracle Financials and Hyperion for the same purpose that you have described in your post. We use Oracle Financials to record actuals and then transfer it to Hyperion under the scenario 'Actual'. While the budget/forecast data in only entered/saved in Hyperion. There are several financial reports for variances that are generated out of Hyperion. So far, this arrangement is serving us pretty well. I second your point that in Hyperion, we can easily compare summary level data. We have Hyperion reports that do variances calculations for sub-totals. In fact, we are also using HP reports for consolidated statements such as Balance sheet, Income statement etc. The actual data for these statements is coming from GL.
As for drill through functionality (from HP to sub-ledger details in financials), we are in process of implementing FDM and use it for both (1) loading data and (2) drill through.
Hope this helps.

Passing a value for date parameter from Oracle Forms to BIP

Hi
I have created a report with the following SQL query:
select
d_tables.d_seq,
to_date(d_tables.d_created) creation_date,
d_tables.d_created_by created_by,
d_tables.d_pk,
d_tables.table_name,
d_tables.comments
from
d_tables, d_applications
where
d_tables.d_ppk = d_applications.d_pk
and to_date(d_tables.d_created) >= nvl(:P_CRE_DATE_FROM, to_date(d_tables.d_created))
and to_date(d_tables.d_created) <= nvl(:P_CRE_DATE_TO, to_date(d_tables.d_created))
The parameters P_CRE_DATE_FROM and P_CRE_DATE_TO have been set up as date in BI Publisher with format dd-MMM-yyyy
The report works fine when launched in BI Publisher.
I want to call this report from Oracle Forms and I'm trying to pass the values for both the parameters. However, the report does not generate output based on values passed.
Does it have to do with datatype? Does anyone know a solution for this?
Kind regards,
Aparna

Thanks for your suggestion. I am already referring to the whitepaper and have integrated Forms with BI Publisher. The parameter passing is working fine for a varchar2 type of parameter. However, for a date type, there seems to be some problem.

Importing Date fields from Oracle always defaults to DT_DBDATETIME, and won't accept chages

Hi
I am trying to import date fields in an Oracle database in to SQL Server 2012, using SSIS. The package is using DT_DBTIMESTAMP type in the Data Flow, but this has the same range as SQL Server datetime, and it bombs out all the time.
I have tried to change the type used to DT_DBDATE, but no matter what I do the data type on the input columns is readonly and will not change.
Any help would be much appreciated
Andy
CRM 4, SQL Server and .Net developer using C#

Hi Andy,
From the Mapping of Integration Services Data Types to Database Data Types section of the document, we can get the detailed information about mapping the Oracle data types to Integration Services data types. To change the data type from DT_DBTIMESTAMP to
DT_DBDATE, we can use the following two methods:
Method 1:
Right click on the Source component and click “Show Advanced Editor”.
Switch to the “Input and Output Properties” tab, expand the XX Source Output node, and expand the Output Columns node.
Click the target column, and change the DataType property to DT_DBDATE.
Method 2:
Add a Data Conversion component to the Data Flow Task
Double click the Data Conversion component to open the Data Conversion Transformation Editor
Select the target input column, and change the Data Type to database date [DT_DBDATE].
If I have anything misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

Multiple source columns from Oracle DB to Hyperion Essbase cube

Hi Experts ,
We have a Source as oracle table to the target Hyperion Essbase Cube(Planning) 11.1.2 using ODI 11g.
Right now my issue is We need to map multiple columns from Oracle DB to One Dimension in Essbase (Planning).
For example -> * In Oracle table i have columns as Name,Volume,unit and item *
In Essbase the dimension called "*CatDefinition has lower level members as Name,Volume,unit and item * "
Now using ODI ,* I want to map the oracle table columns(Multiple) to the dimension(Catdefinition) ? * Please suggest me with idea to achieve multiple column mapping to the single dimension in Essbase .
Thanks in Advance !
Keny Alex

Do you even need FDM? You could build a load rule in Essbase directly. If you need to map, then you would register the Essbase target adapter.

Data load from Oracle schema

Hi ,
This is a simple question.
I am planning to load data from Oracle. What connection info should I need to acheive this?
When I select 'Open SQL' from EAS console, Open SQL datasource dialog box contains server name, application name and database name, what should be entered for these?

Hi,
Please refer the below link to create an ODBC connection in Linux/Unix box.
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/c8bi/v8r4m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.swg.im.cognos.rdm_cr_updates.8.4.0.doc/rdm_cr_updates_id1183SettingUpODBCConnections.html
h4. Open SQL datasource dialog box contains server name, application name and database name, what should be entered for these?
Here you have to provide the server address or complete server name where the Oracle is installed and in the application name and database name you have to provide the Database name and the table name what you have created in the Oracle.
Hope this helps.

Data Transfer from Oracle database 10g to Oracle database 9i

Hi Experts,
We need to insert records at the speed of min 10,000 records per sec in the following condition.
Source : Oracle 10 g and Oracle 9i
We need to select the data from Oracle 10g and insert into Oracle 9i database.
Here we not allowing to create database link and also not allowing to create view or materialized view
because this two database is not on same network.
So we developing the small java application on intermediate server where we write process to get the connection of this two database servers.
From java application we call the procedure for selecting data from Oracle 10g and insert into oracle 9i database.
What is the best way to achieve?
Or You also suggest any other way to achieve
( As per this scenario materialized view is working ? )

Thanks freiser,
But it create another problem as per my business logic, There will be two database server , one is online server where online user fill the form which is generated by java, spring , hibernate and using database 10 g.
at day end i need to execute a process that transferring data from online server to offline server that is in oracle database 9i. This process is scheduled. Some security reason client do not kept this two database on same network.
My challenge is that transfer data from online server to offline server with applying client security norms.
I have option like
1) Using Oracle replication method, creating materialized view on remote server , refreshing it at regular interval. but database connectivity is not contineous, should i go for that ?
2) Write java application on intermediate server where we write process to get the connection of this two database servers. From java application we call the procedure for selecting data from Oracle 10g and insert into oracle 9i database and using flag on both data to identified how many rows are transfered and how many remaining for trasfer.
Please tell me what is best way to acheive this ?
