Deleting members in EPMA via ADS

Is there a way to delete members in EPMA with an ads upload? If so, can you please tell me the format/syntax? I need to delete hundreds of members and do not want to do it by hand. I cannot replace the metadata because that would break all of planning's custom settings. Thanks!

While importing the ads file after deleting the members that have to be deleted, you may use the replace mode.
While using replace mode, any members or member relationships that are not specified in the source are removed from the Shared Library or target application. You can also use replace mode to reorder members under a parent. Properties not included in the source are unchanged in the Shared Library or target application.

I have a iPhone 5. In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera. I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail. Both iTunes and the phone say that 2.1 gigs are being used, even though the phone now has nothing on it. What is going on?

Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

Can't delete the cost estimate via CKR1

Hi,
We have one material. We can't delete the cost estimate via CKR1. It is only warning. It is no error log. The other material cost estimate can delete normally. I check the material master I can't find the issue. The following is the warning message. Could you pls help check it? Whate factor will effect the cost estimate deletion? Thanks.
==========================
Deleting current standard cost estimates can cause inconsistencies
Message no. CK 669
Diagnosis
u2022 If you delete a current standard cost estimate, the fields for
the cost estimate are set to zero in the material master record. If you
use the material ledger, the standard prices in the material ledger
master data are also deleted when you delete the current standard cost
estimate. The material master record for the material thus does no
longer contains a current standard price from a standard cost estimate.
u2022 If you delete an active standard cost estimate, you can no
longer determine scrap, work in process and variations for previous
periods.
u2022 In certain countires, it is a legal requirement to maintain
records of standard pricing. Therefore, you should check whether you
are obliged by law to keep records of your standard cost estimates.
Please also contact the relevant accounting and inventory management
departments.
==========================

Hi,
The deletion of Current standard cost estimate should be followed with some rules of the IFRS.
If you want to change the standard cost you can do the change,If you want to delete the standard cost of material then it will set the price of material to zero.If the material ledger also activate then it will make the Moving average price & standard cost of the material to zero.
So follow the Law of the country & Discus with Audit team &then delete the curent standard cost estimate of the material.

ODI KM for Deleting members in Hyperion Finance

I am trying to write Knowledge Module in ODI for deleting members in Hyperion Finance. But not finding any API method for delete and no documentation on that. Please share if someone have sample about delete on hyperion finance.
Thanks

It is possible using the standard IKM SQL to Hyperion Planning.
I did it using an Update to the Planning Metadata Dimension and passing a value to the Operation column.
I got the following information regarding the Operation column from the HAL documentation.
Operation—takes any of the following values:
<ul><li>Update - adds, updates, or moves the member being loaded
</li>
<li>Delete Level 0 - deletes the member being loaded if it has no children
</li>
<li>Delete Idescendants - deletes the member being loaded and all of its descendants
</li>
<li>Delete Descendants - deletes the descendants of the member being loaded, but does not delete the member itself</li>
</ul>
The default is Update.
Note: If you delete a member, that member, its data, and any associated planning units are permanently removed and cannot be restored.
Good Luck, hope this is helpful

Adding formulas via ADS file - How to Handle Members with Spaces

greetings,
I'm building onto an existing dimension using an ADS file in EPMA where some of the members have formulas. The problem is the ADS load is not consistent with the double quotes where at times the double quotes are retained after deployment, while at other times they are not, thus giving a formula error in Essbase.
The ads file shows something like this: IF(@ISIDESC (""SPECIFIC ACCOUNT"")) ""JAN2012""; ELSE ""JAN2013""; ENDIF
In Essbase, the quotes around SPECIFIC ACCOUNT are removed: IF(@ISIDESC (SPECIFIC ACCOUNT)) ""JAN2012""; ELSE ""JAN2013""; ENDIF
We're on 11.1.1.4.
I've tried various things, such as surrounding the double quote with single quotes, nothing seems to work... Any help is greatly appreciated...

Does this document in Oracle Suport help - Double Quotes Around Member Formulas Are Deleted When The ADS file Is Imported [ID 1101093.1]

Pull DELETED / REMOVED Campaign Data Via Bing Ads API?

Using Bing Ads API, is there a way to pull reports containing DELETED or REMOVED campaigns?
When I look at the Status column, the description says: The current delivery status.
For Bing Ads reporting purposes, it's really important and logical to allow users to pull DELETED campaign data because that data IS data that should be reported... not ignored simply because its status is deleted or removed.
Is there a way via the API to get not only current campaigns but also deleted campaigns?
When I pull the exact same report from the Bing Ads API, it DOES show me deleted campaign data.

Deleted entities e.g. campaigns, ad groups, ads, and keywords, cannot be retrieved using the Campaign Management or Bulk services. You can get performance history for deleted campaigns using the Reporting service if there were any ad impressions during the
specified report time. For more information, seeGetting
Reports.
Please reach out with any further related questions. I hope this helps!

Problems deleting members in EAS ASO

I am in the process of deleting certain members and hierarchies in as ASO cube via EAS. There are 2 out of 14 hierarchies that I am not able to delete. When deleting (using right click, Delete) on either of these 2 hierarchies, or any of their members, I get one of two results, 1. the blue wheel spinning for hours, or, 2. A warning "EAS Server not responding". The 2nd result is followed by EAS crashing and requiring s restart. Any ideas?

Deleting a partner application via ssoreg.sh

Has anyone tried deleting any patner application registered in SSO via ssoreg.sh. As per syntax these are the values:
$ORACLE_HOME/sso/bin/ssoreg.sh
-oracle_home_path orcl_home_path
-site_name site_name
-config_mod_osso TRUE
-mod_osso_url mod_osso_url
[-virtualhost]
[-update_mode CREATE | DELETE | MODIFY]
[-remote_midtier]
[-config_file config_file_path]
[-admin_info admin_info]
[-admin_id adminid]
Whenever I tried using update_mode DELETE it deletes my osso.conf file itself. Which force me to retrieve it from log or from backup. Am I doing something wrong. Any ideas.

Limit on deleting members from workspace

Hello,
I wanted to know if there is a limit on how many members that can be deleted at once from a dimension in a classic planning application. I know that there is a parameter in the outline load utility that would delete the entire dimension and would load the members from scratch from the metadata file you specify. But is there was a better way of deleting the required members apart from using the outline load utility parameter and deleting from the workspace?
We are trying to cleanup our metadata and also trying to delete some members from a dimension but it looks like it is taking ~ 40 mins for deleting ~ 3000 records. Does this sound reasonable?
Also, I am seeing some strange and unexpected behavior while performing these operations. When I am selecting a parent member (that has ~ 3000 child members) and hitting delete, it would show like it's doing something in the status bar on the browser but after a while it would disappear and the page doesnt refresh. It is neither showing the success message nor is it showing any error which is confusing as it's not telling me if it did the delete or if it didn't do the delete. So, when this happened I went and checked the dimension and the parent level member was still in there without getting deleted. Then I tried deleting a different parent member and then encountered an error after a while saying -
An error occured while processing the page. Please check the logs for details.* (Can someone please let me know what's the name of the log file that I need to look and where?)
Another time it threw an error -
You are trying to change data that has been changed by a user on another server. Wait a few seconds and try again. If you continue to see this error message please contact your administrator.*
So basically I am seeing all sorts of different things happening and the deletion process is not going smoothly.
Please share your thoughts on this.
Thanks.

Depeding upon your version the log file location will vary.
in 11.1.2.x version you can check the logs under
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9Planning-sysout.log
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9Planning-syserr.log
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\EPMSystem\servers\Planning0\logs\Planning0.log
you can also mention an operation with outline load to delete (update which will update the members, delete level 0, delete idescendants, delete descendants)

Problem Editing/Deleting the Photos uploaded via iTunes

I uploaded some photos via iTunes to my iPad as well as my iPhone. I wanted to take advantage of the photo edito, the devices will not allow me to edit the original photo uploaded photo file. It is asking I do "Duplicate and edit" which will leave me with 2 photos of the picture (one edited and other original one) on the device! I can't delete the original photo from my iPad/iPhone using either devices. Only way I can get rid of it is by syncing it via iTunes. any suggestions?

That is how it works with photos placed on the phone via iTunes sync -- to remove them you sync again using the instructions in Sync photos to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in iTunes - Apple Support
Another option you may want to consider to move photos from a computer to an iPhone or iPad (if you don't want to use iCloud Photo Library) is a 3rd app such as http://www.photosync-app.com/

Delete photos in iphoto via automator

I've been looking for days for a way to delete photos that are in iphoto via automator. I'm working on a script that will import pictures from a server to iphoto album, then play the slideshow of the album on our HDTV setup... It's all working except for the fact that if I delete an image from the "server" the slide from the previous import is still in iphoto... any ideas?
I the record feature (in automator), but that didn't work out.

Don't think you can. There's nothing in the Automator Dictionary that would allow you to either move an image to the iPhoto trash or to empty it.

Deleting members in a hierarchy

Hi All
The hierarchy for a particular dimension has been created and members have been used in web forms. We need to recreate the total hierarchy of this dimension.If i try deleting the member manually , it throws an error that it is being used in webforms , hence cannot be deleted. Kindly suggest as to how to recreate the hierarchy without deleting the webforms.
Regards'

Hi,
You can take the export of all the data forms using FormDefUtil.cmd, from which you will get .xml file for that data form.
Once you export all the data forms you can delete the data forms and delete the dimension members and load them accordingly.
Later you can import all your data forms using FormDefUtil.cmd utility in to the application.
Cheers..!!

Cannot delete members in a planning application with version 9.3.0.1

Hi Gurus, this is a planning 9.3.0.1 version.
One of our dimension completely changed (Entity Dimension). We are planning to completely delete Entity in the Planning web and re-create with the new entity members.
I have developed the HAL integration and its working. However, When I try to delete the members from the entity Dimension, it takes a long time and comes with a error page. Sometimes it deletes... sometimes it just doesnt get deleted. We will be doing this in Production this Friday and I want to be absolutely sure that I can delete the dimension and also to find out why is this causing the issue.
please help asap...
regrds,...

Hi,
You will need to provide more information on the errors you are getting, HAL will be producing an error log.
Cheers

Delete time series entries via TS_SET/ TS_GET

Hello everbody,
I have a question concerning the TS_SET/ TS_GET functionality.
In a DP macro I createentries via TS_SET (e.g. TS_SET ('LV_Test ; ACT_IOBJNM_VALUE( 'ZC2003' ) ; '' ; '' ; 1 ; 1 ).
Is there also a possiblity to delete the time series entry afterwards via macro?
Otherwise I always have to jump into the table via SE11 and delete it manually.
Thanks for your help!!

Hello AA,
Which SCM version you are using. In case of SCM4.1 version, if you want to do some changes in planning area configuration settings, you have to deinitialize the planning area and then do the changes and reinitialize it. For that you have proper data backup. with out data backup its difficult to retrieve the data back.
From SCM5.0 onward its possible to do the configuration changes without deinitializing the planning area.
There are 2 ways to delete the time series of DP Planning Area.
1) If you use SCM7.0 you will see the menu path Advanced Planning and Optimization --> Environment --> Time Series Administration --> Deintialize Planning Area (/SAPAPO/TSDEINIT)
2) Go to /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN t code and select the planning area context menu select Delete Time Series Objects
you mentioned " it's very strange why this is happened and not sure if you have also experienced it (i.e. for example time series exists for 'active' planning version and then suddenly it's deleted)."
This means, have you done any of the changes in the planning area structure. Deinitialization of the planning area leads to loss of time series values i.e will lose data in the planning books.
Your planning area got deintialized, Can you pls explan whats up exactly happened. I mean what are the major changes done in your planning area. At what situation planning area got deintialized.
For better understanding pls go through the SAP Help regarding Indialize and Deintialize the planning area.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/8f/9d6937089c2556e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm
