EPMA Planning App Issue

We have a deployed EPMA planning app....in EPMA shared libraray the begbalance of period is deleted...
So when we validate the planning app..its throwing out error abt begbalance...when we add begbalance to period n validate we get following erors:
Error Details
=============
Error : Period dimension 'Period' is missing a Base Time Period member 'BegBalance' that has been deleted since the last deployment. Base Time Period members cannot be deleted once the dimension is deployed.
Error : Period dimension 'Period' is missing a Base Time Period member 'BegBalance' that has been deleted since the last deployment. Base Time Period members cannot be deleted once the dimension is deployed.
Error : Period dimension 'Period' contains a Base Time Period member 'BegBalance' that has been added since the last deployment. Base Time Period members cannot be added once the dimension is deployed.
how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
Period dimension in an EPMA Planning application must have "BegBalance" member - you may choose not to use it by unchecking "Use Beginning Balance" checkbox in the Planning properties of each relevant "Scenario" member - then BegBalance will always be read-only in that scenario and you just don't include it in any data forms.

Incorrect web server is listed and unable to create EPMA Planning App

I was trying to create a first EPMA Planning app but unable to continue as it lists incorrect web server.
Little background on the environment: WinTel 2008 environment, 11.1.2 Suite.
FS, Essbase, Workspace on box 1
Planning on box 2
HFM on box 3
FDM on box 4
RA, FR on box 5
Oracle Enterprise on Box 6
Originally planning was installed on box 5 and switched to box 2. Currently web server list box 5 instead of updated box (2).
Are there any settings that I can modify to list proper server?
Thanks in advance!

Did you reconfigure "Configure Logical Address for Web Applications" and update the host to the new host?
Cheers

Wizard to convert EPMA planning app into ASO cube thorugh EPMA

Hi All,
I came to know that in 11.1.2.1 there is a wizard to convert epma planning app into ASO app. I have a requirement and I looked into the oracle documents for more information on this but could not find the right document where I can get more information. Please share any information that you have on converting to ASO app.
Thanks a lot!

No John, it is not in EAS and it is through planning. I came to know that it is a wizard that we can navigate thorugh planning and I went through the different documents of 11.1.2 and 11.1.2.1 looking for it but I was not able to find the path.
Please let me know if you came across this before..

Currency UDA in EPMA Planning app

Hi All,
Version 11.1.2.0;
I've just upgraded a Classic multi currency Planning app to EPMA. The currency conversion is a manual HBR rule and was working fine in Classic.
Now after converting the rule to Calc Manager, I get the validation error for the part where it looks for the Entity members currency UDA.
( @ISUDA("Entity","NZD") )
I believe that Business Rules (HBR) validate the code against Essbase application while Calculation Manager does it against Planning. Can someone point out how I may resolve this issue. I haven't worked with Calc Manager before.
Cheers,
Abhishek

I was pointed to the below bug, which I believe was fixed in some patch for 11.1.1.3. Due to this one would have believed that 11.1.2.0 would have been fine.
Hsp_Rates dimension members other than Hsp_InputValue and Hsp_InputCurrency (for example, HSP_Rate_USD) do not validate successfully against Planning in Calculation Manager. To work around this, deploy these rules to Planning and launch them without validating them in Calculation Manager (7163027)
I did deploy the rules without validating and they run successfully when launched from Planning. I'm pretty sure now that this bug has somehow remained in 11.1.2.0
Thanks for your responses

Error during EPMA planning app deployment

Hello Experts,
I am trying to deploy an EPMA Planning application through Workspace. EPM version is 11.1.2.3
Below is the error that is getting thrown while deployment (with selecting options - "Refresh Outline", "Create Security Filters" & "Full Deploy"):
Creating Security Filters...: Index: 1, Size: 1 An Exception occurred during Application deployment.: Index: 1, Size: 1
Any idea what should be exact meaning of this error/exception?
Regards,
Santy.

Hi Santy,
Does it deploy if you remove the Security filter option, what is the error message if you deploy just the security filters from within the planning app and not epma, if it is generates an error from the planning app there should then be some information in the planning and essbase logs.
Cheers
John

Unable to delete EPMA Planning app & re-use datasource for new app

We have EPMA Planning application (v11.1.1.3)
I am trying to delete a deployed planning application and try to use the same datasource for creating new application.
I have deleted the application from EPMA application library and deleted it from Planning directory in Shared Services. But, still that datasource is not showing up as available datasource for new application.
Any ideas to how I can re-use the datasource. Please advise.
Thanks,
DV

You may need to update the planning system tables.
Go into the planning system relational tables
Table HSPSYS_APPLICATION, delete row relating to planning app, note the app_id.
Table HSPSYS_PROPERTIES, delete records with id that you have just stored.
Table HSPSYS_DATASOURCES, update app_id to -1 for the datasource you use for the planning app.
Restart Planning.
Try again.
Ok?
Cheers

EPMA Planning App 11.1.2.3 Stuck

Hi
I deployed an EPMA Planning Application 11.1.2.3 . It has been an almost an hour.Looks like the deployment is stuck at 10%.
What is the procedure to abort the deployment?
Thanks for your help in advance.

You can open another instance of workspace and see whether the status is updated. It might have completed the process. I would say try logging into the application and see if the change came over or not.
You can always re-deploy it once everything is up and running.

Error while loading members using ads file in EPMA planning app in 11.1.2.2

Hi,
I am trying to update the dimension using ads file in EPMA application(11.1.2.2).
1. I am getting following error:
"The member 'xxx' cannot be created or inserted into the shared dimension 'yyy' within the application 'abc' during application import as this is not allowed by the system. Property updates for this member will not be processed."
2. Also, I am trying to create shared dimension using ads file. I am replacing Isprimary property to 'N' and Datastore property to 'ShareData' in the ads file. There is no error while doing it and the status is 100% complete but I could not see any changes in the hierarchy.
Any help would be great in this.

ODI: Load metadata into EPMA ("non-classic") Planning app

Hi all, I know about loading metadata to classic planning/essbase application, but tell me please if its possible to load metadata to non-classic planning app (I mean created in Architect (in application library) and see it in dimension library?
maybe there is some workaround for this situation
thanks in advance

Version 11.1.1.0.0. We have successfullly used EPMA Interface Tables to manage our planning metdata. We went this direction to avoid introducting another ETL/ELT tool (ODI) into our clients infrastructure. At the time, we didn't realize that ODI was not supported for EPMA (only Classic). I'm thinking of logging an SR to confirm if this limitation will be addressed in a later version of planning. The EPMA administrators guide provided enough detail to help us get started with Interface tables. The one area that created an issue for us was how EPMA ordered the load of members in the EPMA Interface Hierarchy table. Parent members need to be loaded before children. If this ordering is not followed , you will get "Orphan" errors. We could not find a documented process to control the load order, so we need to devise a workaround. Our workaround involved creating a view against the EPMA Interface table to order the retrieval of members so that parents appeared before their children. The Oracle CONNECT BY clause works well to handle this requirement. To make this view visible to EPMA you'll need
to replace the base hierarchy table with the view by updating the EPMA IM_DIMENSION table. EX:
update IM_DIMENSION set C_HIERARCHY_TABLE_NAME = 'HS_Entity_Hierarchy_VW' where C_DIMENSION_NAME = 'Entity';
Alternate hierarchies also require separate EPMA Import profiles. Since only one set of EPMA Interface tables can be used to load a single dimension, you'll need a process that does the following for each alternate hierarchy.
1) Clear EPMA Interface Tables
2) Load EPMA Interface Tables
3) Execute EPMA Import Script
Finally, it's not clear how the I_LOAD_ID column (i.e. load id) is initialized in EPMA Interface tables (by default it's NULL). A load id is somehow assigned each time a Import profile is executed. A load id can be used (among other critiera) to clear EPMA interface tables. However, when I execute a Import profile, EPMA did not assign a load id (I_LOAD_ID was still null). Not sure if I_LOAD_ID is user assigned and is static? Again, very little documentation on how to manage the load id (what is user defined verses what is managed by EPMA).

I have an apple id for my ipod touch at home. My company is planning to issuing Ipads. Should I use the same apple id on the ipad for those apps I purchase and would like to purchase and use on my work ipad?

I have an apple id for my ipod touch at home. My company is planning to issuing Ipads. Should I use the same apple id on the ipad for those apps I purchase and would like to use on my work ipad?

Yes, otherwise you will have to pay for those apps again. If an app is purchased by one Apple ID, he/she will be able to redownload it again for no cost (note: this does apply to songs, but NOT to movies).

Import profiles issue in EPMA Planning

Hello All,
We are working on Hyperion 11.1.2.1. We are using EPMA planning application. We have SQL server as our staging Area. We are having issues with our new Profiles and also with the old profiles. We have an Account dimension member 'xxxx' having TB as Flow, Exchange Rate Type as "Average" in the staging library and also in the EPMA shared library.
When we import the profile we are getting error message saying "All 'Hierarchy' property updates for member 'xxxx' were rolled back due to a validation error; please correct the properties in error indicated in the validation message and re-import the 'Hierarchy' section for this member to apply all member property updates. ValidationMessage: 'Property value 'Average' is invalid for the 'ExchangeRateType' property."
When try to import the new profile we are getting more no of errors than the old proflie.
Can anyone suggest what might be the issue.

Try checking the following document on MOS -
Importing Dimension to EPMA from ADS File With "Replace" Option Results In Corruption [ID 1076883.1]
Its for 11.1.1.3 but sound like you are running into a similar kind of issue.

Upgrade/Migrate 9.3.3 Planning apps to 11.1.2.2

I am in the next step of our upgrade from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.2 and ready to migrate our Planning applications. I have read many of the posts related to this and have a general list of steps, but I have slightly different situation than what I have seen posted before.
To summarize, we have installed 11.1.2.2 on new servers. Our old 9.3.3 is still up and running on different environment. I have sucessfully completed the following:
1.     Foundation Services/Shared Services installed and up and running and users/groups successfully migrated.
2.     Essbase and EAS installed and up and running. All Essbase applications (except for the Planning apps), have been successfully migrated from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.2.
3.     Planning has been installed and is up and running. While there are no Planning apps in the new system, I can open the Planning Administrator via WorkSpace.
So the next step is to get my Planning apps moved/migrated from the 9.3.3 environment to the new 11.1.2.2.
To complicate matters, we are switching from SQL Server repository in 9.3.3 to Oracle in our new 11.1.2.2. So the first thing we did was to create a new Oracle schema for our Planning app repository and using SQL Developer migrate wizard, we copied/migrated the tables and data from the old SQL Server to Oracle. It appears that all the tables and data were successfully copied into Oracle.
Our old Planning application is called PlanTest. The application owner is a native user called planadm. My intended migration plan (and my questions) are:
1.     Do I create a new blank Planning app called PlanTest using native account planamd in 11.1.2.2?
2.     If I use my new Oracle repository for this blank app, will it wipe out the old converted data or will it try to upgrade/migrate it?
3.     Or..should I take a backup of my new converted repository first. Then drop/recreate the Oracle Schema (so no tables) and let Planning build the repository when I create the blank Planning app? Then capture the owner SID in the new HSP_USER table. Stop Planning. Then overlay the database backup of 9.3.3 over the newly created repository and replace the owner SID info. Then Restart Planning.
          ** My concern: Is the Planning app repository table structures the same between 9.3.3 and 11.1.2.2?
4.     Open Planning and hope that the application PlanTest appears!
5.     Use Planning upgrade Wizard to finish the migration and upgrade the repository.
6.     Push/Create app to Essbase.
7.     Export data from old app to .txt load file and reload into new Planning cube.
8.     Convert/Migrate Business Rules using info from John's blog.
I am sure I missed something. Any suggestions or comments on these steps would be appreciated. Bottom line is I need to get this app (and several others) migrated successfully with all metadata, security, forms, rules etc. working. Rebuilding them from scratch is NOT an option.
Also, to clarify. This is a Classic Planning app. We are not using EPMA.
Thanks,
Mike

Following the steps, the upgrade/migration of the Planning application worked successfully. The app and forms were all migrated and was able to push to Essbase application successfully. The only issue was security. While the users/groups seem to appear in the migrated Planning app, none of their security access/filter info migrated. We have Planning security defined down to the member level in the application and it appears none of that successfully migrated, so we would need to manually re-assign all of that security. Any thoughts of what may have happend or step I may have missed?
Also have moved on to attempt migration of the Business Rules to Calc Manager. Using John's 2nd alternative method from his blog, I export the rule from 9.3.3 EAS to HBRRules.xml file, copy it to the appropriate 11.1.2.2 folder, select "Migrate" on the PlanTest planning app in Calc Manager, select the app and Plan type and all seems well with the Import screen even indicating that the Rule and variables were Inserted. But I never see the rule appear. Could this be an "owner" issue or is there something I need to do to the .xml file before the migration step?
