Deselecting a Member from a Plan Type

All,
I have a Geography dimension that is shared by the Income Statement and the Work Force cube. However, not all hierarchies and members need to be shared by both (for example Intercompany GEOs).  In Planning,in the Geography dimension properties, both Income Statement and Work Force cube plan types are selected.  But when I go to the Member property in the Geography dimension to deselect a member let say from the Work Force cube, the check box is grayed out and cannot be unchecked.  How can I make deselect a member from other plan types when the check boxes are grayed out? 
Thank you,

This issue was really bothering me so I looked at and compared all dimensions in both the production and development environment and noticed the following:
The dimensions that allowed the changes in the individual members overriding the plan type selections are from the Country and Account dimension types
All other dimensions including the Period dimension type did not allow changes
Any thoughts on why this the case?
Thank you,

  • How can I delete only shared instance of a member from Hyperion Planning

    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me how I can instruct the Hyperion Planning IKM to delete a only specific instance of a shared member from Hyperion Planning? I've tried specifying the shared member, the parent of the shared instance, 'Shared' as the data storage type, and 'Delete level 0' as the operation. Instead of deleting just the shared instance under the specified parent, however, the IKM deleted the base member, which in turn deleted all shared instances of the member and all the data for the member (lucky thing I'm working in a development environment!). At one point I thought I had things working as I wanted, but now I think I must have mistaken.
    Does anyone know definitively whether only a specific instance of a shared member can be deleted from Planning and, if so, exactly how to do it?
    Thanks very much.

    Well, with a careful review of my ODI interfaces and some additional testing I found my problem. My interface for one dimension was defined exactly as it should be and it worked as expected, whereas I found I had failed to activate the mapping for the data storage property in my interface for another dimension (DOH!). Naturally, the latter interface deleted the base member because the default data storage property value is 'Store'.
    Thanks for testing and confirming that deleting only a specific shared instance of a member from Hyperion Planning does work, John.
    (P.S. to John: I can't see how to change my "Helpful" tag on your first reply to "Correct", so if you want to post another reply, I'll mark it "Correct" (for more points!). Or, if you can tell me how to modify the "Helpful" tag to "Correct" I'll do that instead.)

  • Delete Level 0 from one plan type only

    Hi
    I'm using 10.1.3.6 and wanting to know if it is possible to delete Hyperion Planning metadata for just one plan type only? I have tried by entering a '1' against the plan type and using 'Delete Level 0' but the result was that it removed the code completely, even from the plan type that I wanted it to remain in.
    Your assistance is appreciated.
    Cheers

    If you use the delete option it will delete the member totally.
    What you would do is perform a standard metadata load and update the plan type properties, so put 1 or 0 against the plan types you want the member to be associated with, remember you are still are under the constraints of planning so what you are trying to do has to be valid in planning.
    Cheers

  • Error validating business rules containing variable from another plan type.

    We have created few business rules in in plan type "Plan1" which we are using variable from plan type "Capex". This is how we are using it.
    "(@XREF(cpx,"Intangible Assets Finite, Gross","Unspecified","No Project","Information Technology (IT)","371064911-01"))"
    But when we validate this rule it gives the following error
    "An error occurred in: Rule:IFLJAN13.Plan1.B - Trail Balance - Capex
    A validation error was received from the Planning server 'http://hptstorg:8300/HyperionPlanning/servlet/HspAppManagerServlet?appname=IFLJAN13'.
    'Error:The member 'Unspecified' cannot be found.
    The member 'Unspecified' cannot be found.
    The member 'Intangible Assets' cannot be found.
    The member 'Unspecified' cannot be found.
    The member 'Unspecified' cannot be found. Rule IFLJAN13.Plan1.B - Trail Balance - Capex'."
    We have checked the location aliases using EAS Console and they are correct.

    Could you pls. check if you can see your BR in the location for the cube where you are unable to validate the rule?! (EAS console --> Administration --> Locations --> (right click) open)
    your user must be able to "validate or launch" the rule in this location (changeable with "Add Access Privileges") and the rule itself must be able to launch in this location (changeable with "Add rules").

  • ODI - Hyperion Planning  - Plan Type Option Missing

    Hi All,
    Iam not able to see the Plan Type option in the Hyperion Planning Application. For the application we have in planning has 5 plan types. A custom dimension is enabled for 3 plan types. When I reverse engineer the application under that dimension I should view Plan Type and Aggregation of that plan type. Currently Iam able to see only aggregation option of the 3 plan types but not plan type option.
    This plan type option would decide in which plan types members are to be created. "True" would create that member in that plan type. "False" would not create that member in that plan type.
    Any ideas ....
    Thanks,
    Ramesh

    Hi Willasi,
    Thanks for the update. I clearly understand the point you are trying to convey. Here is my scenario is that "Entity" is a standard dimension and "Department" is my custom dimension.
    As per your point
    "Entity" is enabled in "PnL","Capital","Workforce","Balance","Revenue" and when i add a entity i have a option to select in which database this entity should exist.
    "Department" is enabled in "PnL", "Workforce", "Revenue" and in this case when i add a department should that department should exist in 3 plan types is that mandatory.
    Is that any alternate option to enable that department can exist in one plan type ?
    As per my requirement some department should exist in one plan type not in other plan type
    Thanks,
    Ramesh.

  • Consideration for no. of Plan types in HP

    Hi Expert,
    Would like to inquire if there's any rules or guidelines to decide under what circumstances, we should structure separate plan types in an HP application?
    I understand a typical rule would be if separate dimensions are needed for different set of data, then may need separate plan types, but want to further explore the following situations:
    Situation 1:
    Say for 1 set of data (say data set A), we need to have dimension 1, 2
    For another set of date (i.e. data set B), we need dimension 3
    For both data set, there are 5 other common dimensions that are needed by both
    we are face with the option of either setup only 1 plan type, and setup members of dimension 1 & 3 into the same dimension, and webform to control for data set A, select dimension 1 tree, and data set B, select dimension 3.
    Or we setup 2 plan types.
    Want to check what would be the factors that we need to consider whether to separate the plan type or not?
    Situation 2:
    We have 2 groups of data, both groups require the same sets of dimension. But we anticipate the volumn of both groups would be quite large and although their dimensionality is the same, but the 2 groups of data are independent from each other.
    We wonder if we should split them into 2 plan types, to avoid any performance issues, when more and more data are entered?
    Say we have about 11/12 dimensions, in which the account dimension (which is dense), have about 500-700 for each group, then 4-5 dimensions will have about 500 - 1000 members each, and want to store about 5-7 years of data, in about 20 scenarios/versions combination. Is this large enough to justify / better to have separate plan types?
    Want to know, what would be the limit / threshold of no. of dimensions / members to decide whether to have 1 or multiple plan types? or what other considerations?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I have took the below content from OTN. Please understood your requirement properly, based on that defined the Plan types.
    A few points of clarification:
    I have seen a fair number of clients use multiple plan types when it was probably not necessary. For example, I had one client create three plan types that were identical, with the exception of the Entity dimension. They were trying to achieve some type of workflow/approvals by passing data from one plan type to another . . . all because they didn't know about Hyperion Planning's Approvals features. We cosolidated their app down to a single plan type and saved them a lot of maintenance and aggravation.
    Typically, you break an app into multiple plan types due to one of two reasons:
    1) You have significantly different data granularity between the two databases.
    2) You have a materially different subject area between the two databases.
    A good example of point #1 is workforce planning. WFP includes granular employee level data, while your typical P&L cube does not. If you already have a P&L type cube, and you want employee level detail, it makes sense to create a separate plan type.
    Another example of point #1 might be Actuals data vs Plan data. I've had clients that wanted to analyze their Actuals data down to very granular GL accounts, however they planned at a much higher level in the account structure. When running Planning business rules, do you want your Essbase blocks dragging around all of those granular GL accounts that you'll never use as part of a Plan? No. So it makes sense to break it out into a different plan type.
    An example for #2 might be P&L data vs. Balance Sheet data. While many people can and do put these accounts all into one plan type, it can sometimes be more efficient to break them out. (Thus reducing the overall block size of each database.)
    One final point . . . you CAN add Workforce and CapEx to your existing plan types after they have been created/deployed. However adding additional plan types (other than Workforce or Capex) would require you to recreate the app.
    Hope the above examples helps you to understand the concept and define your plan types...
    Thanks

  • Integrating Financial Plan types from Primavera to OP

    Hi All,
    We have the requirement of sending 3 financial plan types ( budget class financial plan) from Primavera to OP. And existing PIP functionality only supports the integration of a single financial plan types. How to go ahead on customising to send these 3 financial plan types using the functionality supplied by the PIP
    from Primavera to OP. Eg: One financial type is sent across from Primavera to OP when a project is created.
    At the end of each financial period, another financial plan needs to be sent from Primavera to Oracle Projects, which is effectively part of a forecast i.e. cost of work done to date.
    Any pointers/ guidance on how to go about the above?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Provisioning varying admin access levels by Planning plan types

    How can I provision admin access levels by plan types? For example, I'd like to grant a user full admin access to one plan type, but limit their access for another plan type within the same application? The plan type I want to limit them to is basically a workforce plan type which I do not want to allow them to have any admin access to. Anyone know how to do this?

    I took a look at the blog and my current setup design mostly follows what is on the blog. I too have a workforce plan type along with other plan types in the Planning application. What I'm trying to see if it's possible is to setup a user with admin access to manage and modify the member outlines for 2 out of the 3 plan types in Planning, but not give him access to the workforce plan type as that has sensitive compensation information. But it appears that if he's granted admin access to modify the application outline, then he would be able to grant himself access to the workforce members, which then means I can't provision him with limited admin rights while also preventing him from access to the workforce information.

  • How to exclude Sales Orders from a planning run

    Hi,
    I run MD02 and i discover that planned orders are being created as procurement proposals for sales orders and the planned independent requirement.
    I want planned order to be created only for the Planned independent requirements ONLY.
    Is there a way that sales orders can be excluded from the planning run?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Dear,
    Check the requirement type of your sales order line item in VA02 procurement tab it should be Reqmt type of customer reqmt   KSL
    Also check the strategy assign in material master and MRP group OPPR and then check the setting of strategy 10 in OPPS there should be

  • How to enforce valid member combinations in Planning?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to enforce which combinations of members are valid in a Planning application? In Planning, each data cell represents the intersection of a member from each dimension. However, it is likely that not every combination of members is valid. For example, perhaps the combination of an Entity dimension member (like North Region) and an Account dimension member (like Salaries) should never exist because the North Region shoud not have data for Salaries. Is there a way to prevent data entry into the intersection of the North Region entity and Salaries account? Is there a way to define cross-dimension combination rules to prevent entry into cells that are defined to be invalid?
    I currently have a Planning application that takes Actual data from another system, and the data coming from this system has defined member combinations that are allowed and not allowed. Is there a way I can define these same validation rules in the Planning application to maintain integrity and make sure that "impossible" combinations of data are not input into Planning? Thank you.

    I am sorry to say that there is no way through Planning security to enforce combinations of members.
    It's the nature of the OLAP beast below Planning's cover -- Essbase.
    You can use security to restrict access to individual members, but cannot state "This Entity by these three Accounts only". What you can do is try to set up your forms so that this sort of metadata relationship shows up on the form -- attribute dimensions are often used to try to do this. It is an imperfect solution.

  • Taking long time to load from the planning area to the cube since cvc big?

    Hi all,
    We have a huge number of cvc for various countries, while we are planning to load the data from the planning area to the cube using those cvc it consuming 40 hours.
    I happneed to check the cvc are more than 15,000 that is one reason. But i still need to improve the time taken to load the data from the planning area to the cube using the process chain.
    I happened to split the process chain to load data respectively to the sales organisation but still the same!!
    Can anyone help me nor recommend the sap process to improve the data loading from planning to cube in apo demand planning?
    Thanks
    Pooja

    Hi Pooja,
    15K is not huge at all. We have worked with 50k and still managed do the extract into cube in about an hours time.
    Pls help me understand a few things, so that we can help you better.
    1) Number of KF?
    2) Number of Periods?
    3) Key Figure Storage types - Is there any KF stored in Infocube rather than Time Series, this can be found in the Key Figure details in the Planning Area.
    4) Pls explain your data flow like PA--> Datasource --> Communication Structure --> UPdate rules --> Cube???
    5) Are you using Parallel extraction in your Datasource? This can be checked in Data Extraction tools from your Planning Area Screen.
    Few general tips.
    1) Parallelize your datasource.
    2) Load into PSA and Infocube parallely.
    3) Do not include KF stored in Infocube for your backup, use only KF stored in LC.
    Thanks

  • How to create dynamic calc account in multi-plan type application

    Hi expert,
    I have a planning application with 3 plan types.
    I created a calculation script which fixed on accounts in plan type 1 only and the calculation suppose to calculate a "dynamiccalc" account with a member formula attached. Everytime I run the script, it takes very long time and I found there are sessions at the back of essbase with "Process local xref/xwrite request" request to other plan types.
    It does not has this kind of session if I change the account to "store".
    Would like to check, is it possible to create a dynamic calc account to calculate for only 1 plan type in a multi-plan type application? Is there any special setting that I need to do to enable this? I already selected source plan type as Plan type 1 for my dynamic calc account. Please help!
    Many thanks!!
    My HP application is on version 11.1.2.1.

    Hi Jake,
    Thanks for pointing out the check box. Overlooked it and the checkbox was not unchecked, even I only wanted the account to exist in 1 of the plan type.
    However, after I unchecked and refresh now, when I run the calc script, it still trigger process at the back to the other 2 plan types with "Process local xref/xwrite request" request. What else could I have missed?
    I already added the "HSP_Nolink" UDA to all accounts in plan type 2 and plan type 3 and confirmed that there's no account with "Xref" member formula, I really don't know why it is trying to process local xref request. Can anyone help??
    Many thanks!!!

  • Cannot call member function on object type

    On 8.1.6 I cannot call a member function from SQL in the way described in the manual.
    The following example is almost copied from the manual:
    create or replace TYPE foo AS OBJECT (a1 NUMBER,
    MEMBER FUNCTION getbar RETURN NUMBER);
    create or replace type body foo is
    MEMBER FUNCTION getbar RETURN NUMBER is
    begin
    return 45;
    end;
    end;
    CREATE TABLE footab(col foo);
    SELECT col,foo.getbar(col) FROM footab; -- OK
    select col,col.getbar() from footab; -- ERROR
    The second select is the way it should be, but I get an error "invalid column name".
    Using the first select, I get the result. This is strange because this is more or less the 'static member' notation (filling in the implicit self parameter myself).
    Is this a known bug in 8.1.6, maybe fixed in later versions?
