Dimension Build Rule converting characters to ascii

Hi
I have a dimension build rule which has been in place over a year. However every few weeks it converts some of the dimension members to ascii characters but loads with the correct alias. The next time the load runs, it tries to enter the real member and it falls over as the alias is not assigned to the member with the ascii characters.
Has anyone seen this before or have any suggestions as to what could be causing it.
Thanks

Have you tried recreating the load rule to see if it's some form of weird corruption?
That doesn't seem very likely (it's either corrupt or it's not <--This is why I Like Computers) -- how about can you confirm that your source is exactly the same both times? I'll bet it's not and you just see the result manifested in the dimension build.

  • MAXL - using multiple Dimension build rules in single script...

    I seem to be having problems running multiple Dimension build rules in a single MAXL script, is this a known problem or just an issue that I'm having? The build rules independently work as designed but when joined into a single script the script hangs...
    So, this is a 2 part question...
    1) Does MAXL not play nice when using multiple Dimension load rules in a single script?
    2) Do I need to run the build rules independent of each other?
    Also, is there some type of refresh/update on the cube that you can use in the script and would it be necessary...?
    Thanks for any light you can shed on the issue.
    Adam,

    I've written multiple dimension build statements as a part of 1 long MaxL statement. I'm executing this MaxL via a shell script (that replaces the variables such as username, password, servername, file path etc.) I've not seen any issues doing so.
    However, I've noted that, number of imports statements in 1 single MaxL command does not bode well for more than *60* import statements at once. So, if you're using more than 60 source files to build your dimensions, please consider breaking up your MaxL into multiple statements.
    Note: All but last of the import statements have 'deferred' re-structure specified. It speeds up the build process.

  • Dimension build rule file (Sort member)

    I am loading sorted data for one of the dimension. But its is not coming in sorted fashion in outline. New member which i am adding is always coming in The end.Even though that member is in sorted format in the file.
    I am using generation method . I am putting member for only generation 2 and its alias.I tried using ascending option but it is giving me error
    Can any body help me with this

    As Glenn said, the build only builds new members. In order to have FULL control over the order of a resultant dimension's order, you need to blank out the dimension first and then build via the load rule. As Glenn mentioned, you can do "incremental dimension building". You can do this directly in EAS in an interactive manner by using outline/update outline in pull downs. Just do not save the outline until all your changes are done. You can also accomplish incremental builds via Esscmd or via MaxL, but I'll assume for right now you are still testing. The advantages of the incremental changes is that you can do a number of changes before Essbase commits to doing a restructure, which is time consuming, not to mention confusing if you are "deleting" (however temporary) the entire dimension's hierarchy.
    Regarding setting ascending order
    1) in the load rule's Dimension Build Settings prompt
    2) Select Dimension Build Settings tab
    3) highlight the dimension you are changing
    4) select Ascending for sort order
    This should work...I've never had it error out. However, I will say that it sorts the entire dimension...not just the siblings of a new member. Your upper level members will move as well. Because of this, the ascending sort in a load rule is undesirable. Give it a try. If you don't like the results, just don't save the outline.

  • Get problem when create dimension using dimension build rule file

    I got the following warning when I tried to load dimension. I have a product dimension hierarchy which contains 6 levels. I manually create a dimension call product which include six generations. I also create a rule file using SQL. This SQL selects 6 columns and I map each column to each generation. When I load data to build dimension, I always got the following warning and only some part of data get loaded. Anybody know that? Do I have to load parent first before loading child or I can load them at same time?
    Thanks
    \\Record #1 - Incorrect Parent [10] For Member [10] (3307)
    1     2     3     10     10     171     
    \\Record #2 - Incorrect Parent [1] For Member [1] (3307)
    1     1     1     8     8     39

    You are getting duplicate names. YOu need to prefix or suffix (or sql concatinate) to make the members unique. in the record 1 example you might want the outpout to look like
    Product line 1 Group 2 subgroup 3 Product family 10 product 10 sku 171
    Of course I used full names to make it undersatandable, some would use one, two or three letter abrevaitions.

  • Dimension Build Rule Null Processing

    Hi There,
    I try to build Dimension Rule file with Generation build, I have Gen2, Gen3, Gen4, Gen5, Gen6, but some only goes to Gen3, so I check Null Processing, hoping this will take care of the issue.
    However, I still got error "Child Member 368 with no parent"
    I am using txt file as source.
    wondering what I do wrong here, is this because Essbase think it is the space, not null value?
    Thanks in advance.

    Try to put a '\' before ".
    You're formula will be
    @RELATIVE(\"Dim Name\",0)
    make these changes in the flat file or table and then try build the dimension.

  • Need help with converting characters to ASCII code

    Hey. Im trying to write a program to make Caesar Ciphers by random numbers. This cipher must also wrap from front to end of ASCII code, so that if, for example, the character being ciphered is Z and its being modified by +3, the result ciphered character is not "]", but "c".
    Im planning on reading the text that the user inputs (using ConsoleIO) into a string and then seperating each character into a character[]. Then, i would like to find the ASCII code of each character and print out the ASCII code character of the old ASCII code + the modifier.
    So far, this is what i have (sorry for the length, i like to space things out so that its easier on the eyes and more organized... X-( ... ):
    public class EvanFinalB {
         static ConsoleIO kbd = new ConsoleIO();
         static String enteredPhrase;
         static int phraseLength;
         public static void main(String[] args)
              System.out.println("Enter a phrase and this program will cipher it into a secret message.");
              System.out.println("/nEnter your phrase here:");
              //read phrase
              enteredPhrase = kbd.toString();
              //find length of entered text
              phraseLength = enteredPhrase.length();
              //declare arrays for the individual characters of the entered text and the ciphered characters
              char[] enteredChar = new char[phraseLength + 1];
              char[] cipheredChar = new char[phraseLength + 1];
              //loop converting of entered text into seperate characters
              for(int x = 1; x <= phraseLength; x++)
                   enteredChar[x] = enteredPhrase.charAt(x);
                   cipheredChar[x] = cipher(enteredChar[x]);//call cipher() method to find new ciphered character
         //wrap from front to end of ASCII code
         static char cipher(char enteredChar)
              //choose random number to cipher message by
              int modifier = (int)(Math.random() * 26) + 1;
              if(enteredChar + modifier > 90)//90 is the ASCII code for "Z" which is the last capital letter
                   cipheredChar = (97 + (modifier - (90 - enteredChar)));//97 is the ASCII code for "a" which is the first lower case letter
              return cipheredChar[1];
    }The program is obviously in its early stages but (i started creating it today actually), if there is a simple method or anything that i can use to find the ASCII value of a character in order to use enteredChar so that 'enteredChar' is equal to the ASCII code of the new ciphered character, please help me out...Thanks
    P.S. If there's an easier way to go about creating a program for Caesar Ciphers, let me know.

  • How to use Dimension Build to change member property?

    Hello,
    I have researched online on how to do this and I think i have an understanding but I cannot get it to work. My dimension build rules file is of type Parent Child. The fields are Parent, Child, Alias. I am looking to add a Property field to change the consolidation property to - for one member. I have checked off all the options required and tried several different ways but always come with the following error on that line.
    \\Record #95 - Child Member - with no parent (3331)
    P&L - ACC OPERATING Operating Expenses -
    order is:
    Parent Child Alias Property
    What i want to do is assign the - subtraction for consolidation on the OPERATING member. Can this be done with the Parent Child type dimension build? Could this be achieved automatically in another way?
    Thanks
    Alex

    Hey guys, thanks for the tips. The source file is tab delimited. I made sure there was a tab between Operating Expenses and the - for subtractions.  The lines look like so.
    REV_PROJ PS100001 - ACC PS100001 - ACC_PS-M9 Revenue Settlement
    REV_PROJ SC100000 - ACC SC100000 - ACC_SCS Revenue Settlement
    P&L - ACC OPERATING Operating Expenses -
    OPERATING LABOR Labour
    LABOR PAYROLL Payroll related
    I know they don't show the tab but it's there. I have the field set to Property for Account_Desc (Dimension im updating in the outline) with a value of 0. I have also checked off "Delete when the field is empty" as to not change the consolidation on the other lines. i guess i need to figure out why it's treating the final "-" as a member and not as a part of the same line holding it's property. Is there a EOL delimiter i should be setting?
    thanks again

  • Essbase Studio Deployment Dimension Build Errors

    I have a ASO cube used to handle Subsidiary financial reporting to parent. Rather than alternate hierarchies, we use attribute dimensions for yearly differentiation. The ASO cube typically holds information for Current year + 3 prior years. This is the first year that we will achieve this as this cube was created near the beginning of 2010. Therefore, with the cube already having attribute dimension for 2010 & 2011, with the beginning of 2013 it is necessary to create the 2012 attribute dimensions. The cube has 13 anchor dimensions. Typically only 4 of these dimensions have attribute dimensions derived from them. Nonetheless, the following is the build list of the dimensions in the essbase model:
    1: Financials Standard, Dynamic, Sparse
    2: GL Date Time, Stored, Sparse
    3: Incident Date Standard, Stored, Sparse
    4: View Standard, Dynamic, Dense
    5: Company Standard, Multiple-hierarchy, Sparce
    6: Well location Standard, Stored, Sparse
    7: Depletion Code Standard, Stored, Sparse
    8: Vendor Standard, Stored, Sparse
    9: Entity Standard, Stored, Sparse
    10: Profit Center Standard, Stored, Sparse
    11: Curr Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
    12: Past Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
    13: Measures Accounts, Dynamic, Existing
    Attribute dimensions are mainly created in 4 of the Defined Hierarchies with in the cube; 1:FINANCIALS, 5:COMPANY, 6:WELL Location, & 10:PROFIT CENTER.
    According to the Essbase Server log, upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates 19 Dimension Build rule files with the associated SQL to pull members from our SQL Dimension Build tables obviously based on the way the Hierarchy is built as well as the joins created in the MiniSchema in the referenced Data Source. The COMPANY Hierarchy generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, WELL LOCATION generates only 1 Dimension Build rule file (this is mainly due to the fact that all the attributes generated from WELL LOCATION are built from the same table), and PROFIT CENTER Generates 3 Dimension build rule files. At this point for comparison purposes I want to include excerpts from the Server Deployment Log file depicting the dimension build rule files generated from the PROFIT CENTER Hierarchy:
    Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
    … FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON (cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul
    … FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul
    FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_276.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    These Dimension Build rule files are recreated nightly on 4 different production servers, each one successfully redeploying nightly with zero errors.
    So now I need to add the new 2012 tables to the Data Source/MiniSchema, create the joins in the MiniSchema mimicking the joins for the 2010 & 2011 Attribute Dimensions. It would be difficult to demonstrate the joins in the MiniSchema but trust me they are there and this is proven by the additional Dimension Build rule files from the appropriate Hierarchies.
    So on our test server, which is configured exactly like all 4 of our production servers, I have begun the creation of the 2012 attribute dimensions. I begin with the FINANCIALS Hierarchy adding 7 new attribute dimensions, 6 that are cross table and one that is inter-table.
    At this point no changes have been made to any of the other 3 Hierarchies that contain Attribute dimensions; COMPANY, WELL LOCATION, or PROFIT CENTER. They still look exactly as they did in the current state discussed above. Upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates , as expected 25 Dimension Build rule files, 6 additional because only 6 were cross table attributes, the 7th was within the anchor table and therefore would be included in the first dimension build rule file. COMPANY still generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, again as expected. WELL LOCATION still generates only the 1 Dimension rule file also as expected. Lastly, PROFIT CENTER also again only generates the 3 Dimension Rule files, however, one has materially changed as noted below:
    Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON ((cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) AND (cp_328.[profit_center_code]=cp_319.[profit_center_code])) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul (This one did not change)
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul (This one did not change)
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]=cp_276.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    The change in Rule 1 above appears to now require something different from the previous deployment and when we run the deployment now it runs forever and ultimately fails, yet no changes have been made to the Hierarchy, no changes have been made to the MiniSchema involving joins to the tables used in the building of the Hierarchy, and no new tables have been added to the data source that would affect this Hierarchy.
    Additionally, I have also run each of these incrementally, and the PROFIT CENTER even incrementally still makes the change to the SQL statement shown above.
    So finally, to my question, Why and What caused this Dimension Build Rule file to change and ultimately led to deployment failure? Has anyone ever encountered this in Essbase Studio Deployments?

    Gurus, anybody anything on this one??
    I haave done a small adjustment in the dimension order by which I have eliminated the following error:
    Record #40 - Error adding Dynamic calc property to member xxxxxxxxx (3320)
    Record #40 - No time dimension defined
    But, I have the following new error/warning (cube build successfull in this case) when I made this adjustment:
    Record #427 - Error adding Attribute to member PATB4_ADJ-PDA (3320)
    The adjustment I made is... I moved TIME dimension up and ACCOUNT dimension below that...so the order I have now is TIME,ACCOUNT,SCENATRIO,XXX,XXXX instead of ACCOUNT,TIME,SCENARIO,XXX,XXXXX ..*would this create any performance issues?*

  • Duplicate member names allowed dimension build

    I have turned on allow duplicate members in a current ASO essbase cube to test how much rework this will require to allow duplicate aliases.  After I switched the property on, I was recieving errors when attempting to associate an attribute to a dimension through a dimension build rule.  I realized that I needed to use qualified member names in the load file.  Here is an example of the file in Parent  Child  AttributeValue format
    [Domestic-PD].[Test_Comm-PD]     [Test_Comm-PD].[0001-PD]      [Test_Attr-MD].[Test1-MD]
    So I want to associate the attribue Test1-MD to product 0001-PD below.
    Domestic-PD
         Test_Comm-PD
              0001-PD
    What ends up happening is something like this
    Domestic-PD
         Test_Comm-PD
              0001-PD( [Test_Attr-MD].[Test1-MD]
              [Test_Comm-PD].[0001-PD]
    It attaches the attribute to the correct product but then adds an additional member.  I don't want it to add the additional member.  Any idea on what is happening?
    Thanks for any help!

    It ended up working in a different format.  I changed the data file to like below.  I also started over, recopying the outline, turning duplicate members on, so it is possible that there was just something off with the outline earlier.
    Test_Comm-PD     0001-PD      [Test_Attr-MD].[Test1-MD]
    It probably will have issues if there is a duplicate member but luckily I only will have duplicate aliases.

  • Dimension Build in Essbase 9

    Hi,
    Can we build multiple dimensions using a single rule file and data source file? If we have 10 dimensions to build, then do we really need to build 10 separate rule files and data sources for that?
    I've 10 dimensions parent-child tables in relational database. I'm not going to use EIS. Can you suggest me a better way to build the dimensions using sql interface without creating so many rule files and data sources?
    Thanks!

    Actually, it can be done.
    One could certainly make an argument that this may not always be the best way to do things but that's a different matter. I can certainly appreciate that this approach would generally be unwieldy.
    In my case, I wanted to reset dimensions to contain nothing but the dimension name before I reloaded the dimension. I could have created multiple dimension load rules and data files/sql tablse that contained a garbage member name and then load each one -- all doable.
    However, GlennS2 suggested (hi, Glenn) a single record file and a single parent child rule. I don't remember exactly, but I want to say that there were five dimensions to be rebuilt, so it was a 10 field, one record file. The file had the dimension name, and a garbage member name that could never be in the database. It worked a treat. Dimension build rules with lots of lovely SQL (and different by dimension) followed, so this approach didn't make sense to load the real members into the dimensions.

  • Dimension Build Problems

    Even the simplest dimension build rules files are not working for me. For example, I set up a test cube and tried to load 2 lines to a product dimension and it would not work. Is it possible that something is enabled/disabled that would cause this? I am at a loss, as the dimbuild.err file is not working either so I cant got there for guidance.

    HI Dan,
    1. When you say not working , what error do you get and when you start your build process( you need to set the file location for the .err file).
    2. Can you give more details like the data file and your current outline,along with build information too.

  • Problem convertting certain extended ascii characters

    I'm having problems with the extended ascii characters in the range 128-159. I'm working with SQL server environment using java. I originally had problems with characters in the range 128-159 when I did a 'select char_col from my_table' I always get junk when I try to retreive it from the ResultSet using the code 'String str = rs.getString(1)'. For example char_col would have the ascii character (in hex) '0x83' but when I retrieved it from the database, my str equaled '0x192'. I'm aware there is a gap in the range 128-159 in ISO-8859-1 charset. I've tracked the problem to be a charset issue converting the extended ascii characters in ISO-8859-1 into java's unicode charset.
    I looked on the forum and it said to try to specify the charset when I retreived it from the resultset so I did 'String str = new String(rs.getBytes(), "ISO-8859-1")' and it was able to read the characters 128-159 correctly except for five characters (129, 141, 143, 144, 157). These characters always returned the character 63 or 0x3f. Does anyone who what's happening here? How come these characters didn't work? Is there a workaround this? I need to use only use java and its default charsets and I don't want to switch to the windows Cp1252 charset cuz I'm using the java code in a unix environment as well.
    thanks.

    Normally your JDBC driver should understand the charset used in the database, and it should use that charset to produce a correct value for the result of getString(). However it does sometimes happen that the database is created by programs in some other language that ignore the database's charset and do their own encoding, bypassing the database's facilities. It is often difficult to deal with that problem, because the custodians of those other programs don't have a problem, everything is consistent for them, and they will not allow you to "repair" the database.
    I don't mean to say that really is your problem, it is a possibility though. You are using an SQL Server JDBC driver, aren't you? Does its connection URL allow you to specify the charset? If so, try specifying that SQL-Latin1 thing and see if it works.

  • Unable to build dimension thru rule file using export from DRM

    Hi All,
    I exported a dimension from DRM in parent-child format and trying to load it thru rule-file into essbase. Everytime i load the data..it is throwing error. Iam confused whether the error is due to DRM file or Essbase itself?
    Actually i wanted to show the client the syncup between DRM and Essbase, this is kind of POC. I created an ESSbase application and using outline extractor, extracted the individual dimensions and then converted it into DRM import and loaded there successful. After creation of Properties there and added few members under the hierarchy in DRM.Again exported the dimensions and wanted to load into the same Essbase Application which should reflect the member additions did in DRM. But this DRM to essbase thing is not happening.
    Pls anybody help me in this.
    Regards,
    Sahitya

    Hi,
    Is there anything in the error log file that is generated when you load it in Essbase??
