Entity dimension error.

Hi All,
I deleted Entity dimension and added one more dimension with different name but type as Entoty dimension.
But after the removal of Entity dimension I am getting the following error. Can anyone please tell me what should I do to remove this.
"The 'Entity' dimension has been removed or deleted since the first successful deployment of the application. This application type does not support the deletion of this dimension after deployment. Please re-add the deleted dimension."

You can rename the dimension that is to be deployed.
You will always see "Entity" in EPMA, but as a property for the member you can change what the name will be as it is deployed.
Sorry I don't have EPMA in front of me right now so I can't tell you exactly where it is, but it is one of the properties of the member.

  • Error while processing ENTITY dimension

    Hi Experts,
    I am on BPC 7.5NW version.
    I have 6 hierarchies defined for ENTITY dimension.
    I have created the structure in an excel and now I am coping it into Entity dimension for each column one by one.  
    I copied ID, Description and PARENTH1 in ENTITY dimension and processed it.  It worked fine.
    When I copied PARENTH2 from excel to ENTITY dimension and tried to process it, it gave me following errors -
    Base member 'INDIAREG' cannot be the parent of 'UBCITY' in PARENTH1
    Base member 'BURUKWS' cannot be the parent of 'MUKSA' in PARENTH1
    Could you please let me know how to resolve the issue?

  • How can I build a ragged Entity dimension with ERPi

    All,
    I am trying to build an Entity dimension for Planning with ERP Integrator v11.1.2.1, the source is EBS 12.
    In the source system I am building from there is a single parent entity with six child entities, there are then 8 hierarchies of cost centres with no common parent, these cost centre groups define different business areas within only one of the entities, the cost centres for the remaining entities have not yet been defined.
    In the ERP Setup I have specified that the Entity dimension should be built from the Entity and Cost Centre segments and I have created metadata mappings for each parent entity and cost centre ancestor pair (eight in all), the Enitiy segment is traversed first followed by the Cost Centre; all are defined as Base Hierarchies. Each pair has a separate hiearchy name, I tried to define only one of these as a base hierarchy and reuse the name for each pair but this resulted in an error:
    Run Time Error: The hierarchy 'Total Entity' cannot share the parent member 'Total Entity' with the hierarchy 'Total Entity'
    At the moment I get a hierarchy where all cost centres are associated with all child entities.
    Can anyone advise what needs to be done to achieve the following:
    - Get the dimension to build with the cost centres as children of the entities to which they relate.
    - Build the entity dimenion beneath a single common parent e.g. 'Total Entity' rather than eight separate parents (one for each entity/cost centre mapping).
    Thanks

    Gavin,
    i have the same issue, can you please share, how you were able to solve this.

  • Managing large entity dimension in Hyperion Planning

    Hi experts,
    Here is my situation :
    - Planning version : 9.3.1.3
    - OS : Windows 2003 Server 32-bits
    - Repository : SQL Server 2005
    - Application with 3 plans, 12 dimensions. Larger dimension is "Entity" with 40,000 members.
    - No workflow is used
    Here is my problem :
    - I can add without any problem members in my entity dimension but, when I want to cut/paste or delete any member, Planning process uses a lot of memory on the server and when the limit is reached (parameter in the registry database can't be higher : 1622M), process freeze with an out of memory error. So, I restart service and delete or cut/paste is not done.
    - Cut/paste and delete on others dimensions work fine.
    So, could anyone give me advices about my situation ?
    Thanks
    Julien

    Hi,
    Patch was a good idea, but we was already in 9.3.1.14.
    We finally found the solution :
    Entity is really "linked" to scenario and version by the workflow functionnality.
    As we don't use it, we disabled for process management each scenario and version.
    MIRACLE : Thanks to this action, when we delete an entity, memory consumption is low and process quick.
    Conclusion : Delete process of entity dimension controls a lot of things in the repository, using a lot of memory. So, if a scenario or a version is not used in a workflow process, it is very important to discard it from process management.
    Cheers

  • How to change the Entity dimension

    For practice purposes, I created a PSPB application in EPMA. Apparently the new app had no Entity data so I uploaded the entity information from the sample ads file into the EPMA shared dimension library.  I want my practice application called BUDGET to use this new and imported "Entity" dimension.  However, I can't find a way to assign the application to use this dimension or vice versa.  I didnt think the BUDGET app had an Entity dimension but now that I look at its dimensions, it is appearing there.  Even so, it appears to be different than the Entity dimension in the Dimension Library.  I've tried to copy the dimension to the application, but BUDGET doesnt show up as an available application.  How do I get the app to use this shared dimension or create the app to use it?

    For EPMA then usually you would highlight your dimension, select the category of system in the properties window, update the dimension alias, click save, deploy.
    Cheers

  • Create users and assigning them security on the Entity dimension

    Hi All,
    I’m working with Hyperion ESSBASE 11.1.1.3 and Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3 and I have a problem related to create new users (without admin permissions) and assigning them security on the Entity dimension.
    When I access with these users to a Dataform in Planning appears these message:
    “Security and/or filtering has resulted in a required dimension not being represented on this data form”
    I have followed these steps:
    - I have created new users (Native Directory) and provision them against essbase and the planning application in Shared Services.
    - I have expanded the essbase server > security > refresh security from shared services > all users.
    - I have assigned security roles in all members of Entity dimension in Planning.
    - I have refreshed database and security filters in Planning.
    Please help
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi,
    You will have to apply security to all the standard dimensions and not just entity, so that will be account, entity, scenario and version.
    Cheers

  • Not able to delete any Entity Dimension members

    Hi All,
    I am trying to delete some Entity Dimension members but its not allowing me to delete. This problem is only for Entity Dimension.
    I can edit Entity member name or properties successfully but not able to delete or move the position.
    I also tried to check member usage but its not giving me any results, a blank screen comes and planning goes down after some time. Same happens when I try to delete any Entity member.
    I have admin rights on Planning and I can delete other dimension member but not for Entity. There is no workflow started for Entity but If it is than also it pop-ups that after member deletion all planning unit will be lost. I have bounced planning DB and also restarted all Hyperion services but still no luck.
    Please let me know if anyone has faced this issue or have any solution to resolve.
    Regards
    Vishal

    Hi John,
    After uncheck of "enabled for process management" for all Scenario along with Version dimension members , this issue is now resolved. But its a temporary resolution as client has not yet started any workflow so we can uncheck that options ,but when they need to start workflow process then we have to check this options again which will start this issue again.
    Do you have any permamant resolution for this issue?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Subtract from Parent in Entity dimension

    Hi all
    I am currently implementing SAP BPC project to replace Hyperion Enterprise. There is an option in Hyperion Enterprise in Entity dimension where you can specify an entity (child or parent node) to be subtracted from its parent rather than the natural way of adding in SAP BPC. I know in SAP BPC, the natural way the hierarchy works is that all the base level nodes are added to its parent level which in turn are added to its parent level and so on and so forth.
    I was wondering if there is a way to accommodate "Subtract from parent" functionality of Hyperion Enterprise in SAP BPC. One way I can think of is to write a script logic to multiply the numbers submitted to that entity by -1 which will make sure that we are subtracting this entity while rolling up.
    Does anyone know of a better way?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Ameya Kulkarni

    Exactly as Tim says, there's a member property you can add (called UNARYOPERATOR, must use that name, inApp, length 1) that takes a value of one of the following:
    +    (this adds up the member to its parent -- same as if you didn't add this property)
    -     (subtracts this member from its siblings, in computing the parent)
    *     (multiplies it)
    /     (divides it)
    ~    (ignores this member)
    I've never used multiply or divide. The tilde is helpful for skipping the NBV accounts from the fixed assets on the balance sheet, where you can't double-count the original book less accum depreciation, AND the NBV. But every chart of accounts has all those accounts in there.
    This property should probably work in any dimension with a hierarchy. Or almost any -- I'd be surprised if Time would be able to multiply October times November??? But anyway for simple stuff, it should work.
    Or you can use a member formula on the parent, which would be
    OtherChild1 + OtherChild2 - SpecialChosenChild
    A script logic approach will also work, but it means a lot of extra calculations and data, which you should avoid if possible. I think to get the results you want, you'd follow Tim's approach, except the logic needs to post a factor of -2 (not -1) to the shadow member, to get a net result of a negative impact on the parent. A factor of -1 would give a net result of zero.
    Hopefully the unaryoperator or formulaH1 will work.

  • Entity Dimension - Company Code + Profit Center

    Dear experts,
    I'm in a BPC project in NW, the project has two fronts, planning and consolidation, in specific I am with the initial concern of how to organize the dimensions, and is used by both sides.
    Explaining the situation, we will do the planning and legal and management consolidation, ie we must have a vision of the organization by Company (Company Code) and Enterprise Center (Profit Center), here comes the first question, Do we need to organize the Entity Dimension structure with a hierarchy of hybrid company and profit center? Ie:
    Say a company has the following structure:
    The Company A is a holding company with Company B controlled.
    Under the Company A have two enterprise center: X and Y;
    Under the Company B have tree enterprise center : V, W and Z;
    Thus the structure of ParentH1 would get this:
    ID  ParentH1
    A
    B     A
    X     A
    Y     A
    V     B
    W    B
    Z     B
    This interpretation is correct? What are the impediments to the COI if any.
    Thanks
    Alexandre

    Alexandre,
    I'm with the same doubt, do you get the answer ?
    Please some one knows the answer ?
    Best Regards

  • Entity dimension

    By what tools I can dynamically build the Entity dimension in the Planning application, except ODI, DIM and EPMA?
    Thanks.

    Yes can use ODI to build the dimension for a classic application.
    EPMA is a different type of managing metadata and is not classic, it is an EPMA planning application, so if you convert your classic to an EPMA planning application or create an EPMA planning application you can use it to build your entity dimension.

  • Change the entity dimension?

    I have situation with a sales reporting application.  Business rules have changed and any company can sell to any customer - this results in a problem with the fx stored in the entity dimension (currently Customer) as the companies have different currencies.  I thought about adding a new entity dimension called Company (and calculating fx based on the company), and changing the existing Customer entity to be a user defined dimension.
    Has anyone ever had to do anything like this before?  This doesn't seem to be an easy change...  I really don't want to rebuild the application and redo all security (neither of these dimensions are secured).  Any ideas/thoughts would be very much appreciated.

    I was able to figure out how to do this without rebuilding the application and redoing security.  Steps are below in case anyone else runs into this problem:
    1.     Create new entity dimension called u201CCompanyu201D in application set
    2.     Assign one member rolling up to a parent
    a.     i.e. NO_COMPANY rolls up to TOT_COMPANY
    3.     modify SQL table tbl.Dimension for DimName Customer
    a.     change EVDimType from E to U
    b.     remove RefDim
    c.     assign DimIndex (in only the cube rows)
    4.     If necessary copy SQL member table to Admin front end
    5.     Save to server and process dimension
    6.     Modify application to include new Company dimension
    7.     Process Company dimension
    8.     Add SCALING property to Customer dimension
    9.     Remove RPTCURRENCY property from Customer dimension
    10.     Process Customer dimension
    11.     Change System_Constants.LGT files to reflect Company as the entity dim
