Data manuplation in Hyperion

Hi Gurus
We are facing a very strange issue, i.e. Figures entered in or Hyperion forms are locked after finalization of budget, but one good morning we observed that figures are changed or erased in out forms. We have audit trail enabled in our application but nothing found there regarding those figures.
We are on 11.1.2, Please let us know, is this a bug in Hyperion because it happen to us multiple time.
Please its very urgent.
Thanks
SNK

Hi,
We are in 11.1.2 Planning and we too had same issue. But we were sure that its not actually bug in Hyperion. Later we found that we have few exceptional cases in Calc scripts where the logic was copying data from one intersection to another which was the source for data clear (remember data copy can overwrite your existing values). This will be very hard to find but still you have to go through this excercise to make your application stable.
Even though this might not be the exact issue of yours, but still this might click you what can be wrong in your side.... Moreover, Hyperion can never clear data by itself unless we program so. :-) Hope everyone can agree with this...
Thanks,
Siva

Data copy in Hyperion Planning taking long time

Hi All,
good morning.
I am using data copy in hyperion planning (11 1 2 2) to copy from one scenario to other selecting account annotations and supporting details.
The essbase part of copying data completed (checked sessions), but when I checked the job console in planning it still says processing for past 2 hrs.
My java heap size for planning is 1.5GB and the backed database is SQL server
my suspicion is that the issue was with backend sql. but I don't where to start.
can anyone please guide me.

I am working with version 11.1.2.1 and running into the same issue. The Supporting detail option works fine if the application has just a few details, let’s say 50 cells, but if we have around 500 cell with details then the copy process never ends, the details are not copied, and I have to restart the Planning service. As a workaround we are using a two steps process. In the first step we copy the just Essbase using the copy data functionality of Planning (with no data copy options enabled) or by using an Essbase calculation script. For the Supporting Details piece we use the Export for Edit functionality of LCM and export them to an XML file, and then we edit the XML file and change the source member name with the target member name, and finally we use the Import after Edit functionality of LCM. Of course if works only if the Planning application was deployed using EPMA.

Formatting header rows in data form in hyperion planning

Hello Friends,
I want to format header rows in data form in hyperion planning (formatting like Bold, Italic etc...) Is there any way to do that?

I could be wrong. That's why i thought i should post this one.
This is from 11.1.2.2.300 readme
Customizing the Style of Header Cells in Forms
Applying a bold style to all forms
1. From HyperionPlanning.war\custom, open HspCustom.css and insert this class code:
customheaderStyle
Font-family:<font>;
Font-size:<size>;
Font-weight:bold;
For example, to use bolded garamond 14 as the style for header cells you would specify:
customheaderStyle
Font-family:garamond;
Font-size:14;
Font-weight:bold;
You can also change the font and the font size in the same portion of code.
Perform the tasks in "Registering Customized Skins in Applications".
Applying a bold style to one form
Determine the ID of the form to customize by running this query in which ‘<FORM_NAME’ is the name of the form:
Select object_id AS FORM_ID,object_name AS FORM_NAME from hsp_object
where object_name like ‘<FORM_NAME>’
For example, to modify a form called "1.30 Per Payor – Metrics”, you would run this query:
Select object_id AS FORM_ID,object_name AS FORM_NAME from hsp_object where object_name like "1.30 Per Payor-Metrics"
When the ID is returned, create a css class in HspCustom.css using the following format. HspCustom.css is in HyperionPlanning.war\custom.
“customheaderStyle_<FORM_ID>”
Set font-weight in .customheaderStyle as bold as shown below. You can also change the font and the font size in the same portion of code.
customheaderStyle
Font-family:<font>;
Font-size:<size>;
Font-weight:bold;
To use different styles on individual forms, create a css class for each form.
so there is a way to create custom headers

Creating data server for Hyperion Shared Services (HSS)

Hey Gang,
Has anyone had experience in creating a Data Server for Hyperion Shared Services (HSS) using the java API? I know HSS uses Native Directory, but to be compliant the Hyperion folks recommend using the java API strictly to get access to the users, groups, etc.
Anyone have experience with this, or perhaps at least how to get ODI to kick off a java file to pull the data needed? What effort would be needed in ODI, is it straight forward or would I have to develop a technology or something to integrate into ODI?
Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply John. I am trying to get user and group information, and also doing some complex manipulation. I need this to verify user access and some other stuff. I will not always have access to HSS and cannot always export the information, thus the need to use the HSS java API.
I'm trying to pull it out of HSS and put it into an Oracle table in a standard format where I'll use the information and do reporting off of it. I've developed a java class that does migrates the data over, but its crude and I'd like to move it into ODI with some of our projects that are currently doing the same thing with other ERP such as Ebiz and Peoplesoft.
If I can recode some of the java in ODI, how would I go about doing that. Where would I include the libraries, etc.? is there a tutorial or a place where I can get started on that.
Thanks for all the help.

Data loading in Hyperion Web Forms

Hi,
I am new to Hyperion Planning technology.
I have few doubts regarding Meta data and data loading.
I am aware that we can load data into Essbase cubes and see it from Web Forms.
Can we load data directly into webforms?
Can we load meta data into essbase? or loading meta data through HAL to hyperion planning application?
I understand that we can load data into Essbase and not clear whether we can load data into Hyperion Planning and also metadata..
I request you to clarify me this asap.
Thanks alot in advance for your help..
Regards,
Upendra.

Hi,
To answer some of your questions :-
Can we load data directly into webforms?
{color:#ff0000}The data in webforms is pulled directly from essbase, you can load the data into essbase or enter through the webforms or use something like Smartview.{color}
Can we load meta data into essbase? or loading meta data through HAL to hyperion planning application?
{color:#ff0000}If it is a planning application then the metadata has to go into planning first and is then pushed down to essbase, you can enter metadata directly into planning or use ODI or HAL (if you are licensed to use it) or if your brave then EPMA.{color}
Cheers

Network Error: Cannot Send Data (1042012) in Hyperion Planning

I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.1
I'm getting this error when i'm trying to refresh my Planning database.
Com.hyperion.planning.olap.EssbaseException: Network error [%s]: Cannot Send Data (1042012)
Any suggestions?

First make sure your essbase is up and running. If it is then:
Increase the values for NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT.
Check the index cache size, data cache size, and data block size to make sure that they are within the recommended ranges.
How to do it and how much to set, you will get this information in Essbase database administrator's guide:

How data insert in Hyperion cube

Hi Gurus
I've a very basic question, I've a business rules witch doing following calculation of members
e.g.
c = a + b
It suppose populate 100 in "C". If i run this business rule 3,4 time without changing the figure of base form then it will give same result every time???? Secondly, if figures changed in "A" or "B" then Business rule will overwrite figure in "C". if so, then what is behavior of Hyperion regarding current figure stored in "C" member.
I hope u guys understand my point.
Regards
SNK

Not sure I fully understand the question here....
But,
user11978217 wrote:

If you are not changing any figures related to your equation and re-running the BR, you shouldn't expect the result to change (calculation is just going to arrive at the same result and overwrite the current figure with the same figure).
if figures changed in "A" or "B" then Business rule will overwrite figure in "C". if so, then what is behavior of Hyperion regarding current figure stored in "C" member.The 'current figure stored in "C" member' is overwritten by whatever the result of the newly calculated figure is - the current or previous figure is lost.
If you do not want this to be the case then you could create a variable at the BR outset and make it equal to the current value of C, which would allow you to use this elsewhere in the BR if required, regardless of the data on C following the calc you set out originally....
Hope this helps and I have understood what you were asking sufficiently...

ERPI: Data Loading problem Hyperion Planning & Oracle EBS

Hi
I am trying to load data from Oracle EBS to Hyperion Planning.
When i push data Zero rows are inserted in Target.
When i look at Table " SELECT * FROM TDATASEG "
It is showing me data but it is not comminting data in Target application.
The reason is Data difference in Source (EBS) and Target.
In my source Year is 2013 but in Target 'FY14' so for Entity Source is '21' but Target is '2143213'
Can you please let me know how to solve this issue?
can i place a Lookup table for this in EPRI.
i am using EPRI and ODI to push data.
Regards
Sher

Have you setup the data load mapping correctly to map the source value to the proper target value? Based on what you are describing it seems that the system generated * to * map is being used, if you are mapping a source to a different target, this needs to be added to the data load mapping.

How exactly can I load TEXT DATA to a Hyperion Planning application?

I have a data file that has TEXT data that I want to load to planning. I do not wish for this text data to be displayed in a Smart List, rather I want to use the new Planning data type "Text"
In chapter 5 of the Planning Admin Guide in the Matrix for Data Load Tools, it says the Planning Outline Load Utility can load Text Data values.
I can't make sense out of the the instructions to load data with this utility. Can someone please help me?
-Chris

Hi John,
I like your idea of flipping the Data Load Dimension and the Driver Dimension. Unfortunately Planning won't let me set Period as a Data Load Dimension.
I only get Account, CCCC, Employee, SCCC, and SAU_CAU_Facility (5 of the 11 dimensions in this application).
So that's why I set the Data Load Dimension and the Driver Dimension as I did. It ran but with some kickouts on missing members. So 16 of the 19 records I sent processed and I understand why these three kicked out in the error file:_

Prevent concurrent data update in Hyperion planning

Hi,
We have a Hyperion planning application with below features,
Apart from the basic dimensions, there is a dimension "Item Code" with about 100 item codes as dimension members slay Item001 to Item100.
A dataform where data is to be updated against an Entity, a Business rule is run to select the first unused item code dimension member from the Item code dimension for this data update.
Assume the following combination has data
Entity1 -------------> Item001
Entity1 ---------------->Item002
When the data form is opened to update data for any Entity and the business rule is run, the next first unused Item code will be selected for data update.
Now, if two users open the webform to update data for Entity1, Entity2 respectively, the business rule would pick up Item003 the next first unused Item code.
Entity1 -------------> Item003
Entity1 ---------------->Item003
This is not desired. How to prevent this situation. ?

I am working with version 11.1.2.1 and running into the same issue. The Supporting detail option works fine if the application has just a few details, let’s say 50 cells, but if we have around 500 cell with details then the copy process never ends, the details are not copied, and I have to restart the Planning service.

GL data Import into Hyperion Essbase using Adapters in FDM

Hi All,
I am trying to import GL data using the below adapters, I have an Essbase application created to accept the data. I previously imported a text file into Essbase and that worked perfectly.
Source Adapter :ES9x-G4-C
Target Adapter :EBS-FIN-B
FDM version :11.1.1.1.00
1) my Integration settings in workbench are valid
2) control tables in FDM web are valid
3) I created an Import group and set the file Type to adapter then specified to Source adapter as EBS-FIN-B.
What are the next steps as my application is not IMPORTING.
Thanks

Hello,
All software available from Oracle to download is on their eDelivery site: http://edelivery.oracle.com
If software is not listed there that you need; then you will need to create a Non-Technical SR for media delivery.
Also please keep in mind that there is no EBS adapter compatible with FDM 9.3.1 .... please review the compatibility matrix at the end of each FDM ReadMe.
Thank you,

Unable to SAVE data through a data form in Hyperion Planning

Hi,
I recently migrated an application from development to QA using the LCM tool and refreshed the outline into Essbase using Planning Web. Once completed, i loaded the level0 data and aggregated it.
I opened a data form and tried to SAVE data and i get an error stating: "There was an error during the save process".
I tried saving the data using another form and i was successful at it. I re-migrated the data-form i was having an issue with and tried again. Thist time I get an error "Communication error with server. Callback failed for data entry page". This error shows up now on every form and every application.
Any suggestion on how to fix this?

I don't know if that patch will help you or not. It addresses a specific issue related to text data types. Your issue sounds similar, in that it appears to be triggered via the existence of specific data. The issue we were describing above presents itself when opening the form, and not when saving the form. I'm just guessing here, but it sounds as though there is some type of mismatch between the data types that Planning is expecting to display and save on the form, and the format of the existing data in Essbase.
You said that you can't save the form once the data is loaded into a particular version. Here's what I'd do to narrow the issue down:
1) Copy the data into your version so that the form will NOT save. (ensuring that the issue is present)
2) Start selectively deleting data from the version. Write a quick calc script that clears certain data, account, by account.
3) After each selective delete, make a note of the account you cleared. You'll only need to clear accounts that are present on the form.
4) After each selective delete, refresh the form, and then try to save.
At some point, I expect the save will be successful. You'll then know what data was causing the issue. I'm guessing that this data (probably a specific account) will have a data type that doesn't match up with the data in Essbase. It could be defined as a Smart List that wasn't migrated. Or a text value that doesn't exist in the app repository. Something like that.
Hope this helps,
- Jake

Make Results Table data more narrow (Hyperion 9.3.1 IR)

We have data in a results table that looks something like this:
SurveyName   Date    Response1   Response2   Response3
dataA        dataB   dataC       dataD       dataE
dataA        dataB   dataC       dataD       dataE
dataA        dataB   dataC       dataD       dataEand we want to make the table more narrow so it looks something like this:
SurveyName   Date    Data         Response
dataA        dataB   Response1    dataC
dataA        dataB   Response2    dataD
dataA        dataB   Response3    dataE
dataA        dataB   Response1    dataC

dataA        dataB   Response2    dataD
dataA        dataB   Response3    dataEThis seems like there should be an easy answer to this, but I'm totally drawing a blank.
