Dynamic row selection based on Page member selection in Planning web-form

Hello experts
I have requirement where, user dont want 10 webforms to enter 2 accounts line for various sparse members. Below is the dimension detail and web-form current design
Account - Dense
Period - Dense
Year - Sparse
Scenario - Sparse
Version - Sparse
Entity - Sparse
Product - Sparse (600 level 0 members)
Product dim has family1 as parent and 40 level 0 mem like that there are 10 family level 1 members, now to enter account member (only 2 member) for 6 years projection ( it means 12 periods and 6 years in column ) , i can build 10 web-forms with one web-form has one family level-0 mem in rows,
however my question, is how can i achieve this in one web-form, instead of 10 web-forms for 400 products ?
your help is greatly appreciated.

Im not sure there is any simple way to get dynamic row selection based on what is selected in the page.
If I were designing the form based on what you have stated, I would probably stick both Account and Year in the page, and the 400 products in rows. This would require the user to select the different combinations of Year / Account, but would mean only 12 columns (instead of 72).
Alternatively you could stick Account in rows too - meaning 800 rows, but less combinations to select in Page....all depends what is deemed acceptable to the user.
Probably other approaches that may be better than above (put Product in the Page for fun!!)

Member selection (Member + UDA) on Planning Web-forms

Hi all,
Is it possible to select members and UDAs together on Planning Web-forms similar to member selection on Financial Reports?
Example:
Members: ILvl0Descendants ("Total Net Income")
UDA: ALLOCACT
I didn't see this option on the member selection window, but I wanted to make sure that I am not missing anything.
Thanks,
Mehmet

Hi,
UDA does not work in data forms. If you want that property to be there in the data form, please create an attribute dimension with the same children as UDA and attach the attribute members to that dimension.
Thanks.

Page/point view of Planning web forms

how to set the members in ascending order in the page/point view of the hyperion planning webforms.
I have tried with the SORTDESC command, but its does not gime me the expected result.
Thanks in adavnce.

Hi,
if you dont want to change the order of your primary hierarchy you could create a alternative hierarchy with all members in the order you would like to see it and save these member as Shared Member.
Outline
--> hierarchy1
-->Member1 (Store)
-->Member3 (Store)
-->Member2 (Store)
--> hierarchy2
-->Member1 (Shared)
-->Member2 (Shared)
-->Member3 (Shared)
So for your form you could choose Descendants(hierarchy2)
Kind regards

Dynamic Row Suppression based on grid POV

Hi,
I need to suppress rows based on the grid POV. The report is set up to have accounts in the rows and the user is able to select a specific account in the grid POV. Based on the grid selection, half of the accounts in the rows either need to be suppressed or not.
One solution already available is to use advanced suppression on each row but this option will take too long. I'd like to find a solution using UDA's or some other way. Any ideas?

Selecting a member range on Planning Data Forms?

Hi all,
Can somebody confirm it is not possible to select a range as a member on a Planning Data form?
Here is my situation:
Description: On a planning form we would like to populate forecast months. Currently planners can input data to six months: Jul-Dec. In October, we will change it to Oct:Dec.
Issue: For each data form, we need to manually add/remove members.
Failed attempt: Created a SubVar and assigned the following range: &CurFstMo:Dec. Of course it failed :)
Work around: I think the easiest solution is to display 12 monts and change the start and end date for Forecast scenario. I need to check with the planners if they'd be ok with displaying all 12 months other than just the input months.
Can you think of another solution?
Thanks,
Mehmet

Hi,

Planning web form error "This form contains unsaved data. Select OK to cont

I've got a user that suddenly gets an error on a planning web form. She opens the form and enters data but when she tries to submit gets the following error “This form contains unsaved data. Select OK to continue without saving data, or Cancel to discard operation” and then it takes her back to the blank form. This form worked for her yesterday but not today. She has tried shutting down hyperion, even rebooting her machine but no luck. Any ideas?

Sub Query selection based on parameter value selected

I have a parameter, and based on the value selected, I want to run one of two queries. I thought I could do either an IF THEN ELSE, or a CASE, but neither seem to be working.
What I'm trying to do is this:
IF parameter_value = 338 THEN
(RUN THIS SELECT QUERY)
ELSE
(RUN THIS SELECT QUERY)
END IF
or
SELECT CASE WHEN parameter_value = 338 THEN (RUN THIS SELECT QUERY)
ELSE (RUN THIS SELECT QUERY)
END X
I'm getting errors with both. For the CASE statement, it says "too many values". For the IF statement, it just says "invalid SQL statement".
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Dynamic where clause based on Page Items

I need an example of how to build a where clause with values from page items.
I want to do something like the following but do not know the syntax:
sql_string := ' where lab.ceventno is not null and lab.cts_no_show is null ';
if :P1_RECID is not null then
sql_string := sql_string || ' and lab.recid = ' || :P1_RECID;
end if;
if :P1_CAS_NO is not null then
if :P1_CAS_TYPE = 1 then
sql_string := ' and upper(lab.cas_no) = ' || :P1_CAS_NO;
elsif :P1_CAS_TYPE = 2 then
sql_string := ' and lab.ceventno in (Select ceventno from msds_ing where cas_no = ' || :P1_CAS_NO;
end if;
end if;
:P2_WHERE := sql_string;
I put this in a process that I want to pass to Page 2 when search button is pushed. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but this doesn't seem to work.
When I print out :P2_WHERE, I only get the first line
'where lab.ceventno is not null and lab.cts_no_show is null '
Any help would be much appreciaed
Thanks
Pam

Pam - We need more details about exactly what you are doing, e.g., how are you going to dynamically execute that SQL, what items are on page 1 that will be submitted (all search criteria), what happens on page 2, etc.
But here are a few points:
1. when building a query for dynamic execution, put the bind variables like ":P1_RECID" into the generated SQL, e.g., do this:
sql_string := 'select ename from emp where empno = :P1_EMPNO';
not
sql_string:= 'select ename from emp where empno ='||:P1_EMPNO;They may appear to give you the same results but the first introduces non-reusable SQL into the shared pool (this is bad).
2. When code runs that references user-entered item values on the current page, like "if :P1_CAS_NO is not null", you have to make sure those items have been submitted (as with a page-submitting button) before you reference them. So if the user enters search criteria into form fields, then submits the page, then you reference those items in the SQL-building process, you'll be okay.
3. Watch for errors like your line: "sql_string := ' and upper(lab.cas_no) = ' || :P1_CAS_NO;" which you may have intended to be "sql_string := sql_string||' and upper(lab.cas_no) = ' || :P1_CAS_NO;".

SmartView 11.1.2 not remembering the last selected Planning page member

Am I missing something here?
In Planning web forms, if I have a dimension called "Cost Center" in the Page section of the POV of Form A, and I select Cost Center 12345, and then navigate from form A to form B, and form B has Cost Center in the Page section of the POV, Cost Center 12345 is still selected.
This is standard Planning behavior and is selected in the Preference "Remember selected page members".
However, when I do this in SmartView, all of my POV selections are reset to the last level zero member, every time, for every dimension. I am using IDescendants(dimname) to populate my Page selectors, and then using security to limit the members.
I am logged in as the application owner.
The version of Smartview is 11.1.2.0.0.1 (Build 003).
The connection to Planning is shared.
I have tried this on ad-hoc and "normal" forms; the behavior is the same.
Someone please tell me I'm overlooking some incredibly obvious setting. If you come to KScope, I will gladly buy you the beverage of your choice.
Regards,
Cameron Lackpour

Hi Cameron,
I can confirm seeing this as well. It reminds me of the (IMHO) quirky behavior of the Copy POV functionality. It seems like a functionality disconnect somehow.
This sounds like a a good subject to discuss at the Kscope Symposium! :)

Restricting members in Planning Webform depending on the member selection

Hi Guru's
Is there a way in the planning webform, to restrict members showing in the form, for example, I have Entity, Employee, Position. Depending on the entity selection I need to display on the form related to that entity. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Im not sure there is any simple way to get dynamic row selection based on what is selected in the page.
If I were designing the form based on what you have stated, I would probably stick both Account and Year in the page, and the 400 products in rows. This would require the user to select the different combinations of Year / Account, but would mean only 12 columns (instead of 72).
Alternatively you could stick Account in rows too - meaning 800 rows, but less combinations to select in Page....all depends what is deemed acceptable to the user.
Probably other approaches that may be better than above (put Product in the Page for fun!!)

SmartView member selection problem

Hi,
I am facing an issue in Smartview. I am using SmartView 11.1.2.1. I am unsure if this is how it actually works or if it is an issue.
Say, I have the following hierarchy:
A has a child B and B has a child C
And if the user has access to only A and C, when I manually drill down by double clicking on A, I get C. But if I select A and choose 'Member Selection', I do not see member C,under A, for selection.
Is this a known issue ??
Please help.
Thanks.

This would be expected behavior for a design like this. At a point in time your security requirements are such that it would be overly intensive for Smart View to work as you are asking it to.
Either grant read access to B or understand you will have the issue you have illustrated.

Page after filling in web form and Css on Web apps

Hi All.
I have two questions.
1. How do I customise the page that appears after a web form has been filled in. The page the sumarises the details filled and thanks the user for filling in the form?
2. We have created a web app to display info on a page, which it does, but it isn't pulling the CSS styling from the main template. To make it work we have been putting inline CSS in the web app code, but this isn't ideal. Is there a way to make it look for the main CSS?
Thanks
Ken

Hi Ken,
1. You can find it under Site Manager > System Pages > Web Forms Confirmation Page
2. Does the detail page/web app item use a template? Did you make sure the referencing looks something like this: <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/styles.css" />?
