Data Manager Parameters

Hi All,
I need to copy data from one member to multiple members (to be selected dynamically) using script logic and data manager package.
Below is the script I am using
*XDIM_MEMBERSET TIME=%TIME_SET%
*WHEN TIME
*IS *
*REC(EXPRESSION=%VALUE%,TIME=%TIME_SET%)
*ENDWHEN
I want to pass the parameters both source and destination(multiple members) to passed using data manager package.
I am stuck with data manager script, kindly provide help in resolving this issue.
Regards
Maheedhar

Hi Maheedhar,
don't forget to add the version of BPC you are using, MS or NW.
What dimension with multiple members you need to use in the script?
Is this above the whole script?
Regards
Roberto

Data Manager Clear Package - VBA Automation Parameters

Hello guys,
I have built an input sheet, where the user selects members from BPC dimensions (ACCDETAIL,ACCOUNT, ACTIVITY,ASSET, etc.). Next, the user clicks on the "Clear Data" button, which triggers a VBA macro (EPM_Clear). This macro should call the BPC clear package and clear the transactional data for the selected members.
I have two problems:
1) How do I pass on the previously selected parameters (i.e. which dimensions to clear) from VBA to the clear package?
2) When I use the following code, it says ‘Package not found’ .
VBA Code:
Private Sub RunPackage_Click()
Dim EPMObj As FPMXLClient.EPMAddInDMAutomation
Set EPMObj = New EPMAddInDMAutomation
EPMObj.DataManangerRunPackage ”Clear”, ”DataManagement”, ””
End Sub
Thank you and best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
Kindly refer yser guide it says if you change value SELECTPROMPT () to "1" it will take into account the context member.

Data Manager Packeage and Process chain si not working

Hi All,
I executed a data manager package which contain a process chain to revaluate the one of my Account dimension meneber Say "Revenue". I am working on BPC NW 7.0
steps I followed:
1. I created a script logic file and created a custom process chain.
process chain steps:
a) Start variant
b) Modify dynamically
c) Run Logic
d) Or and Clear BPC tables
2. This process chain was included in data manager package.
3. Data manager package was modyfied to include parameters and scipt logic file name.
4. executed data package
The issue is " when I execute Data manager Package" I dont get any error but when I View status I dont see any pachage running or completed. If I see Process chain, It is failing at first step of Modify dynamically..no clue?
Could you please let me know what could be a issue?
Cheers,
SAC

I encounter this problem, Do this Steps:
I. First,check if your process chain is existing in the Library.
II.If yes,follow the steps below:
1. Edata - organize Package - Modify your Package.
2.Check if you had the correct process chain.
3.IF yes, Click View package at its right side.
4.Expand the Task Folder and take note of the Task Name (e.g. ZBPC_PROT_RUN_LOGIC)
5.click Advance,Compare the task name that you noted in the syntax TASKS
(e.g. TASK(ZBPC_PROT_CF_RUN_LOGIC,SUSER,%USER%)
6. It should be the same.
Running package but not appearing any status happens when the system cannot find your process chain.
hope this helps,

Please guide me , we strucked ...
Need check in the Default Logic

Hi,
The solution is mentioned in the note :1374381
To check WORK STATUS by business rule, the business rules stored procedures will use [%SCOPETABLE%] as one of the parameters, because the fundamental design of work status is different from V4. Therefore, the WORK STATUS setting from Web admin is good enough to apply WORK STATUS to business rules. And MAXSTATUS will not be used from 7.5M anymore.
[Remarks]
However, since the [%SCOPETABLE%] variable is needed to check WORK STATUS, some of the stored procedures must be changed to include the variable at the end of the parameter. Please refer to below stored procedures to see how to set the variable.
- Intercomany booking
    *RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE = SpICData(...,[%SCOPETABLE%])
    *RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE = SpICBooking(...,[%SCOPETABLE%])
- US Elimination
    *RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE = SpRunElim(...,[%SCOPETABLE%])
[Note]
1. If there are records which are rejected by work status, all of the records calculated by the data package are not inserted. And an error message is returned, and states the reason with specific work status details why they failed to post.
2. When running on multiple time periods, calculated records in unlocked periods are inserted even though records in a previous period are rejected.
[Additional Info.]
To apply this fix for Business Rules Stored Procedures, select any application and run "Modify Application" without checking any options in the action pane.

SSIS Environmental Variables not working in BPC 7.5(MS) Data Manager

Hi,
We have an SSIS 2008 package that is retrieving variable values from Environmental Variables. The package runs successfully when executed from DTExec, but fails when executing from a BPC 7.5(MS) Data Manager package. Looking through logs we've been able to pinpoint the issue. The issue is that the SSIS package is unable to retrieve variable values from Environmental Variables when running from Data Manager packages. We tried using XML Configuration files to store variable values, but this did not work either when running the SSIS package from Data Manager. Has anyone seen this before? If so, what was the solution to resolving the issue?
Thanks,
Glenn Van Der Werff

Hi Glenn,
Can you set package variables in Data Manager script as a workaround?
For example, here is how we set connection string:
GLOBAL(DRILL_CN_STRING,Data Source=%SQLSERVER%;Initial Catalog=%DRILL_DB%;Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Application Name=SSIS-BPC_Incremental_Oracle;Auto Translate=False;)
DRILL_CN_STRING is a variable in our package and %<Parameter Name>% are parameters for that connection string.
Regarding Env Variables and XML... there could be security related and/or Package ProtectionLevel issue when BPC system account.
Hope that helps,
Akim

Data Manager - export/import

My questions is as follows:
Export from: Oracle 8.17 (on Unix)
Import to: Oracle 8.05 (Windows2000)
How should I set the parameters in the Data Manager to make all tables/procedures/triggers etc.. come across complete and undamaged.?
I have tried many things - but usually the procedures become invalid and no triggers come across.
I have used IMP80 as well for importing with same result.

This is exactly why everyone out there should not get too comfortable using OEM to manage their databases. If you know how to do a task using the command-line, then by all means do it that way. Use OEM or DBA Studio for things you're not so sure of or if you need a visual to help you do it right. Command-line is quicker and more percise because you have total control of what info you're sending to the db.
Others may disagree with the advice I'm giving - which is to NOT use OEM if you know how to do the task via command-line - and further input is welcome. What do others think about this?????????

NEW TO SAP BPC - Advice on Data Management Packages

Hi,
I am an experienced Microsoft BI User, but am new to SAP BPC.
I am working on a project that has required me to create custom SSIS packages for my client. To date my packages transform / cleanse and format the source into a clean CSV file, that requires no further intervention from the user, other than to use the standard SAP BPC Import Routine, with a simple Transformation file.
In order to fully automate the process, I would like my Custom package to automatically invoke the Standard import package without any user based intervention.
Can anyone advise on this?
I have considered writing further logic in my custom package that would completely bypass SAP BPC Data Manager, and insert the information direclty into the Fact Tables, taking into consideration any members that don't exist in the Dimensions. However, I would prefer not to go down this route unless absolutely necessary.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, so that I can call a clear routine from within my custom package, that would invoke a SAP BPC package /task to clear certain data from the fact table, and then call another Package / task that would update the Fact table based on a fully prepared csv file.
Many thanks

You could modify your custom package to perform all the steps thru BPC import and have the user initiate the Package from the BPC Data Manager. You would just need to add a MODIFYSCRIPT variable (see the standard IMPORT package as an example) and add the BPC tasks required to Convert/Load that data your package already prepares.
I have had prior success having a custom package initiated from within the BPC Data Manager extract data from an external data source (ie: Oracle), use user provided runtime input to customize data extraction parameters, manipulate the extracted data, and import it into BPC.
Unfortunately I've never attempted to initiate a BPC task without the package being initiated from within BPC. But I would surmise that if you provide the proper values for the individual BPC Tasks (ie: Convert and Load) required properties (ie: AppSet, App, User,...), I cannot think why it would not work.

Prevent Data Manager Package to be startet at certain times of the day

Hi
We currently have an issue as described below.
During month end closing SAP BW data is updated to BPC 3 times each day. This is done using a Data Package linke performing 8 steps in total. This DP Link works as expected. The problem is that while this is running users start other data manager packages that are based on the data from the data package link. This is an issue because the data is not correctly allocated before all 8 steps of the DP link has completed. This leads to very funny / Incomplete data and we would like to prevent this issue.
The question is therefor! Can we implement some kind of logic that prevents users from starting other data manager packages when the DP link is running?
/Chris

Hi Chris,
If you want to do the check for a DM which is running eg. a script via the default formular PC you can create copy of the PC and build in an extra step just after the start to run a custom program.
You can set up the custom program eg. to check the table RSPCLOGCHAIN for dependent running PC or validate if the DM package can run dependent on some parameters set in a custom table. Eg. set the time range for when you are running the pakage link.
You don't need much logic in the custom program to do the check.
I don't see another or even standard way to do the check in BPC.

Data Manager not running scripts

Dear Experts,
I've followed one of the "How to pass parameters to BPC scripts" guide and created a Process Chain to run scripts. The whole thing didn't go as smooth as expected and I'm not sure which part went wrong.
As I'm having trouble validating the complex version of codes. I wrote something very simple instead like
*XDIM_MEMBERSET AcctDetail=Non_AcctDetailInput
*WHEN ACCOUNTPLAN
*IS "SSVV060"
*REC(EXPRESSION=%VALUE%,P_DataSrc="INPUT")
*ENDWHEN
*COMMIT
I ran the package, the package should trigger the process chain. but it never showed itself in the package status like it's never ran once at all.
I'm posting my script problem on another thread.
anyone has an idea? Thanks a million...

Data Subsetting parameters

Hello,
Where does Oracle store the data subnetting parameters in the "Mobileadmin" schema? I'd like to know so I can validate the parameter for each user without having to go through each one on the Mobile Manager.
Thank you.

The data subsetting parameters used in each publication item are stored in c$all_pub_params.
The values for each user are in c$all_subscription_params
NOTE do not change directly through the database, as this would not work correctly. these tables do not have public grants by default, so if you want to examine the data programatically (we do as part of application publishing), then you will need to grant access/create synonyms if you code does not run as mobileadmin

DTD for data-management-config.xml

Is the data-management-config.xml file structure somewhere
explained? I wonder why isn't this file (as well as all the other
FDS config files) validated against a DTD or XML schema?
I'm trying to configure multiple parameters for a destination
server method, without success so far. The following attempts have
all failed
<server>
<fill-method>
<name>getFolderContent</name>
<params>java.lang.String;boolean</params>

I want to pass in a Java String and a boolean (the
primitive). What's the correct syntax? Thank you.

Thanks a bunch, that was it. Any ideas where I can find DTSs

Passing multiple parameter to SSIS package via data manager

Hi
We are trying to pass parameters from data manager to SSIS package. We are trying to give option of selecting members from Dimension using SelectInput while modifying script.
But we are not able to catch the values in SSIS package.
Code in Data manager package:
(ON)
(SELECTINPUT,%VER%,,"Select Account",%ACCOUNT_DIM%)
(Execute sp_ver_copy,SqlStatementSource,exec dbo.sp_ver_copy2 '%VER%')
We also tried with writing GLOBAL(VER,%VER%) instead of -- (Execute sp_ver_copy,SqlStatementSource,exec dbo.sp_ver_copy2 '%VER%')
But that also dosent work.
We need to use the parameters passed, in SQL code that we have written in OLE DB source, under data flow task.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Roberto for reply.
Please find the screenprint as per your suggestion. Also I have mentioned the code in above question. We are using the stored procedure to write the value into a table , passed from front end. We are able to write the value passed from front end into a table. So it means that system is passing the value.
But when I try to bring same value into the data task flow , system is throwing a error. The description of error is also mentioned below.
Kindly advise.
Error Description in DM package:
Description = Executing the query "exec dbo.sp_ver_copy2 'Account'" failed with the following error: "An error occurred while extracting the result into a variable of type (DBTYPE_STR)". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

Search for [Remote Key] and [Remote System] in Data Manager

Hello all
I would like to be able to search on the remote key and the remote system in the MDM Data Manager is that not possible? I thought I remembered seeing that possibility under the Free-Form Search but now I can't find it.
I have, however, found this in the Data Manager reference guide:
REMOTE SYSTEM AND REMOTE KEY FIELDS
MDM uses the remote systems defined in the Remote Systems table
within the MDM Console to store and maintain key mapping information
for each record or text attribute. It does this using a virtual key
mapping field that you never see in the MDM Client.
This virtual key mapping field is very much like a qualified lookup field
into a virtual key mapping qualified lookup table.
Key Mapping information stored in virtual lookup field
The Remote System and Remote Key fields are normally not visible;
however, they do appear in several places in the MDM Client.
Specifically, both fields: (1) appear in the File > Export dialogs in Record
mode for exporting value pairs; (2) are recognized by the File > Import
dialog in Record mode for importing value pairs; and (3) appear in the
Edit Key Mappings dialogs in both Record mode and Taxonomy mode,
for viewing and editing value pairs.
Is there any way to search on the value in the remote key from the Data Manager?

Not sure search i think not possible.
But you can see keys as mentioned:
Enable Key mapping in Console.
MDM Client maens MDM Data Manager.
They do appear in several places in the MDM Client or Data Manager. Three different methods to see in DM are given already below:
Specifically, both fields: (1) appear in the File > Export dialogs in Record mode for exporting value pairs; (2) are recognized by the File > Import dialog in Record mode for importing value pairs; and (3) appear in the Edit Key Mappings dialogs in both Record mode and Taxonomy mode, for viewing and editing value pairs.

Error while opening MDM Data Manager

Hi,
We are getting the following error while trying to open Data manager on our repository.
"Error Initializing Attributes for table Taxonomy
Application will exit
Already exists"
mds Version 5.5.42.90
MDM DataManager Ver5.5.42.90
The repository loads without any errors. The server log file too doesnt show any errors.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Go to your MDM console, Login to repository and Unload repository first.
Then load with Update Indices.
This problem comes when you change anything in schema in console and then load repository with immediate option.
So always prefer to use update indices as accelator files will get updated and data comes from actual database.
If the problem still persists then Go again to console and check your repository for any fatal error. if errors come then repair repository and if not come then also repair.
Then load with update indices.
Hope it will help you.
BR,
Alok

Not able to see data in the qualifier table of the main tbl , Data Manager

Hi,
I have an issue of not able to see the data of two qualified table after populating them.
It is in mdm-5.5 ps4.
When populating data first time ,it shows up in those two table slots in the right side of the Data Manager.
However subsequently it does not show up in those slots , only by right click on the table and selecting "View/edit", the window pops up where those data shows up.
However unlike other qualified tables the data does not showup automatically for these two tables.
Appreciate any suggestion or feedback on this.
regards,
-reo

You may have checked the Filter Check Box next to the Qualified Lookup cell in Data Manager, when the current table is the Main Table.
You use the Filter Checkbox to limit the qualified table records by the current search selections.
Secondly, you have see if there are any Qualified Links to the main table record you are viewing.
If not, create the Qualified links in Data manager, for the main table record and the Qualified Table Record.
Once this is done, you will see the Display fields of the Qualified table for which the links exists for the given main table record.
