Error in Calculation Script TCP IP Error

Hi all, I am getting a strange error while running a calculation scriptthrough esscmd. When i run a calculation script from ESSCMD i get"Network Error: The client or server timed out waiting toreceive data using TCP/IP. Check network connections. Increase theNetRetryCOunt and/or NetDelay values in the ESSBASE.CFG file.Update tis file on both client and server. Restart the client andtry again" Actually the script was running fine last week but since 3 daysit's throwing an error. The scripts are running from ESSCMD and there are 5 calc scriptsruns. First and Second goes through fine and execute with sts id =0. Starting 3rd calc script it is throwing this error. All calc scripts starts with //ESS_LOCALE English_UnitedStates.Latin1@Binary SET CACHE HIGH; SET MSG SUMMARY; SET NOTICE DEFAULT; SET UPDATECALC OFF; SET CALCPARALLEL 7; SET CREATEBLOCKONEQ ON; 1. Calc Script 1 is about 1988 lines. - Executed successfully 2. Calc Script 2 is about 1988 lines. - Executed successfully 3. Calc Script 3 is about 600 lines - Throwing TCP/ IP Error 4. Calc Script 4 is about 600 lines - Throwing TCP/ IP Error 5. Aggregation script - Throwing TCP / IP Error. Any idea... ?? Thanks in advance..

While there is a possibility that you are seeing a real network error, you might want to run a couple of checks if you are running the script that runs the calc on a different unit than the server. If it is the network, changes to the NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT will help. But more likely, it is a problem with the essbase server and the specific app process. I'd suspect that the calc and other things happening are swamping the memory and/or overloading IO. Take good look at your cube, it's block sizes, and the nature of the calcs you are running. How many blocks are needed to do a particular calc, and will those all fit in memory at the same time? You may need to modify your SET MSG and SET NOTICE parameters so that you can identify the specific step where your calc is having problems. Those are long calc scripts, you may find it useful to break them into smaller modules for testing to determine what the problem is. Also, you need to look at the server and app logs to see if there are any hints there. The "Network Error" message is quite non-specific; it only says that the communication has failed, not why. In my experience, it more often happens when a an app or the main server process freezes up, and it may actually take a shutdown and restart of at least Essbase if not the whole server. As an additional note: Is the database fragmented? All apps benefit from a periodic export, reset, reload routine to defrag the database.

I'm getting an error 1012016 on my calculation script

Good day guys,
I just wanted to ask for your opinion as I'm getting this error:
Cannot calculate dimension member DimX with restricted member ChildrenX1_1.
Here's the scenario. I have a dimension, DimX and under this dimension, i have 3 children DimX_1, DimX_2, and DimX_3. Now, upon roll up, DimX should only get the value of DimX_3 for actual data, and get the sum of DimX_1 and DimX_3 for all the forecast.
Now the current structure of this dimension is:
DimX
-----DimX_1 ( + )
----------ChildrenX1_1
-----DimX_2 ( ~ )
----------ChildrenX2_1
-----DimX_3 ( + )
----------ChildrenX3_1
Now I have this calculation script:
FIX(Actual)
DimX = DimX_3;
ENDFIX;
Now upon execution of the calculation, I get the error above. Can you please tell me what's wrong with this simple script?
Thank you very much.

I think the member ChildrenX1_1 is in the fix of Upper portion of the script.
L.H.S in the formula should be with in the range of Fix criteria
Remove the ChildrenX1_1 from the Fix or come out of the range.
You can write like this.
FIX(DimX)
FIX(Actual)
DimX_3;
ENDFIX;
ENDFIX;
You have to run this calc after the rollup.
If you run this before rollup, the results will gone after rollup.
This is not good.
Check out using dynamic calc member formula may be the better option
If(@ismbr(Actual))
DimX_3;
else
DimX_1+DimX_3;
endif

Character Limit to Custom Calculation Script?

Hi. I have a document that has a text form field. I want to run a custom calculation script that basically says if field "Group Number" = xxxxxxx, then field "Group Name" should = ABC Company.
I have a list of almost 575 group numbers and names that I need to put in the script. And I've got the script working just fine but I am guessing there is a character limit to the script field???? It won't let me put my full list in there.
Any suggestions on how to get around this??
Thanks,
Brandy

I think I might have one error but I thought I had corrected it. Let me run this by you. My "if" lines are like this:
if(a == '88096') event.value = 'Stacy's Carpet Steam Cleaning Company';
But the code doesn't seem to like the ' in the Group's name. Is there a way to correct that without getting rid of the ' .... ?????

Is it possible to use extensive formulas (e.g. "if" or vlookup functions) in the "Custom Calculation Script"?

I am working on a form fill PDF converted from MS excel. This is for others to use who don't have MS excel that need to use my spreadsheet.
1. I would like to know how complex can the formulas be in the custom calculation script in the calculate tab under properties in a cell menu?
2. Where can I find what formulas will work in the custom calculation script along with the format for those formulas to work correctly (tutorials would help)?
I have tried writing an "if" function but received and error so I am assuming either functions don't work in the script or there is a different format than standard spreadsheet formats.
Bruce

In that case the for loop would be:
for (var i = 0; i < 8; i += 1) {
sum += +getField("Total." + i).value;
So initially, the counter i is equal to zero, so the field name used with the getField method is:
"Total." + 0, which results in the string "Total.0". With each iteration, the variable i is incremented by 1, so the subsequent field names are the following:
"Total.1"
"Total.2"
"Total.3"
"Total.4"
"Total.5"
"Total.6"
"Total.7"
The script gets the value of each field, converts it to a number, and adds the number it to the running sum.

How do I create an "if" function in a custom calculation script?

I need to take a simple "value is the sum of" and make it so if one field is less than 1 then the result of the formula will equal "0".
For example here is a simple "sum of" script:
Incent Bns.26, Time Bns.26, Spec Bns.26.
Now converted to a custom calculation script:
event.value = ((this.getField("Time Bns.26").value) + (this.getField("Incent Bns.26").value)) + (this.getField("Spec Bns.26").value);
Where Time Bns is calculated by looking at another field Hours26 using a special formula to calculate the bonus.
I would like to add something like an "if" function to the script so that if the Hours26 field is less than 1 then the output of the script will equal "0".
I tried this already:
var rank = this.getField("Hours26").value
var value = 0
if (rank < 1) {
value = 0
else (rank > 0) {
value = ((this.getField("Time Bns.26").value) + (this.getField("Incent Bns.26").value)) + (this.getField("Spec Bns.26").value);
event.value = value
But get the error: SyntaxError : missing ; before statement 7 at line 8:
Thanks ahead of time for any help.
Bruce

Try this:
var rank = this.getField("Hours26").value;
var value = 0;
if (rank < 1) {
value = 0;
} else {
value = ((this.getField("Time Bns.26").value) + (this.getField("Incent Bns.26").value)) + (this.getField("Spec Bns.26").value);
event.value = value;

Questions on Calculation Scripts

I have two questions on Calculation Scripts:
1. When executing a Calculation script via the Administration Services console (right-click execute) besides the Messages lower window pane, is there a detailed log/trace of the script activity?
2. We had a calc script #1 and we wanted to modifying it. We cut the entire script out into Windows notepad, made the adjustments then paste back into the script. When we go to parse it came back with validation errors. However if we simply edit the existing script within the console (do not cut and paste outside of AAS) it correctly validates. Bug? Limitation?
Thanks
JTS

Just to add to that, each application has its own log.
For example if you the Sample essbase application will have a log named sample.log and will be located in <essbase home dir>\app\sample or in V11 <hyperion home>logs\essbase\app\sample
Cheers

I am trying to create a PDF document that calculates Gains and Losses in Mutual Funds. The calculation scripts are repetitive from line to line. The scripts work well until I reach the line 32. Although I am using the same script as the fields above in the columm, the script eventually stops calculating and I can't figure out why. Is there a limit of how many calculation scripts you can enter? I will attempt to attach my pdf as soon as I figure out how. Thanks.

For e31 :
var e30 = +getField("e30").value ;
var c31 = +getField("c31").value ;
if ( (e30 !== 0) && (c31 !== 0) ) event.value = e30 + c31 ;
else event.value = "";
for e32 :
var e31 = +getField("e31").value ;
var c32 = +getField("c32").value ;
if ( (e31 !== 0) && (c32 !== 0) ) event.value = e31 + c32 ;
else event.value = "";
for e33 :
var e32 = +getField("e32").value ;
var c33 = +getField("c33").value ;
if ( (e32 !== 0) && (c33 !== 0) ) event.value = e32 + c33 ;
else event.value = "";
Java console doesn't show any error... That's why I am wondering if it's not a limitation issue... or memory issue, because they are maybe too many rows or something....
The c value is not calculated.

Creating Basic Calculator Script - Needs help

I'd like to create a basic calculator script that makes doing calculations a bit easier from the command line. Normally i do:
echo "32*24" | bc
So I built a bash script that I can just type "calc 32*24":
bc << EOF
scale=4
$@
quit
EOF
And it works ok until i try to use parenthesis:
calc (1+49)/5
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `1+49'
if I use parenthesis, directly in the bc command it does ok:
bc
bc 1.06...
(1+49)/5
10
I've tried putting $@ in quotes but not luck. Looks like bash isn't transferring the parenthesis. How can I get the bash script to pass theparenthesis?

Which is faster - Member formula or Calculation script?

Hi,
I have a very basic question, though I am not sure if there is a definite right or wrong answer.
To keep the calculation scripts to a minimum, I have put all the calculations in member formula.
Which is faster - Member formula or calculation scripts? Because, if i am not mistaken, FIX cannot be used in member formulas, so I need to resort to the use of IF, which is not index driven!
Though in the calculation script,while aggregating members which have member formula, I have tried to FIX as many members as I can.
What is the best way to optimize member formulas?
I am using Hyperion Planning and Essbase 11.1.2.1.
Thanks.

Re the mostly "free" comment -- if the block is in memory (qualification #1), and the formula is within the block (qualification #2), the the expensive bit was reading the block off of the disk and expanding it into memory. Once that is done, I typically think of the dynamic calcs as free as the amount of data being moved about is very, very, very small. That goes out the window if the formula pulls lots of blocks to value and they get cycled in and out of the cache. Then they are not free and are potentially slower. And yes, I have personally shot myself in the foot with this -- I wrote a calc that did @PRIORS against a bunch of years. It was a dream when I pulled 10 cells. And then I found out that the client had reports that pulled 5,000. Performance when right down the drain at that point. That one was 100% my fault for not forcing the client to show me what they were reporting.
I think your reference to stored formulas being 10-15% faster than calc script formulas deals with if the Formulas are executed from within the default calc. When the default Calc is used, it precompiles the formulas and handles many two pass calculations in a single pass. Perhaps that is what you are thinking of.^^^I guess that must be it. I think I remember you talking about this technique at one of your Kscope sessions and realizing that I had never tried that approach. Isn't there something funky about not being able to turn off the default calc if a user has calc access? I sort of thing so. I typically assing a ; to the default calc so it can't do anything.

The idea that you can't reference a member formula in a FIX is false. Here's an example:
- Assume you have an account that has a data storage of Stored or Never Share.
- This account is called Account_A and it has a member formula of Account_B * Account_C;.
- You would calculate this account within a FIX (inside of a business rule) something like this:
FIX(whatever . . . )
"Account_A";
ENDFIX
If you simply place the member named followed by a semi-colon within a business rule, the business rule will execute the code in the in that member's member formula.
Why would you want to do this instead of just putting ALL of the logic inside the business rule? Perhaps that logic gets referenced in a LOT of different business rules, and you want to centralize the code in the outline? This way, if the logic changes, you only need to update it in one location. The downside to this is that it can make debugging a bit harder. When something doesn't work, you can find yourself searching for the code a bit.
Most of my applications end up with a mix of member formulas and business rules. I find that performance isn't the main driving force behind where I put my code. (The performance difference is usually not that significant when you're talking about stored members.) What typically drives my decision is the organization of code and future maintenance. It's more art than science.
Hope this helps,

How to convert an Excel Formula to a Custom Calculation Script in a Adobe Acrobat 9 Form?

Hello,
I am not familiar whatsoever with Javascript and need some help in converting the following Excel Formula so that I can enter it into a Custom Calculation Script in a Adobe PDF Form. Here is the formula:
=IF(E15<25.01,9.95,IF(E15<50.01,11.95,IF(E15<75.01,13.95,IF(E15<100.01,16.95,IF(E15<150.01 ,19.95,IF(E15<200.01,24.95,IF(E15>200.00,E15*0.125)))))))
Where "E15" will be the text field named "Subtotal" on my Adobe PDF Form.
Thank you for any help you can provide!

Fortunately JavaScript has the 'switch' statement so nested if statements can be avoided.
var E15 = this.getField("Subtotal").value;
switch(true) {
case (E15 < 25.01) :
event.value = 9.95;
break;
case (E15 < 50.01) :
event.value = 11.95;
break;
case (E15 < 75.01) :
event.value = 13.95;13
break;
case (E15 < 100.01) :
event.value = 16.95;
break;
case (E15 < 150.01) :
event.value = 19.95;
break;
case (E15 < 200.01) :
event.value = 24.95;
break;
case (E15 > 200) :
event.value = E15 * 0.125;
break;
default:
event.value = "";
break;
} // end switch;

Need Assistance With Custom Calculation Script

I need help with a custom calculation script in Acrobat Pro. I am trying to add the sum of fields A, B, C, D, E, F, and G together with the lesser value of fields H and I. What would be the script to enter for this result? Thank you.

event.value = Number(this.getField("A").value) + Number(this.getField("B").value) + Number(this.getField("C").value) + Number(this.getField("D").value) + Number(this.getField("E").value) + Number(this.getField("F").value) + Number(this.getField("G").value) + Math.min(Number(this.getField("H").value), Number(this.getField("I").value));

Help with Custom calculation script in Acrobat 8

Hi all, I am using acrobat 8 on OS 10.5
I am trying to add certain fields (numbers) and then subtract another field value to give an end result.
I don't know anything about Javascript, would anyone be able to help with any info on how I achieve this result? I can only see Add, x and average etc... nothing there for subtraction
Thanks for any help in advance
Swen

This should get you started:
>if (event) {
// get values from two text fields
var a = Number(this.getField('Text1').value);
var b = Number(this.getField('Text2').value);
// subtract the values and show it
this.event.target.value = a - b;
Place this in a 3d text field, as a Custom Calculation Script.

Custom Calculation Script Help Needed

I need to make a script that Sums a column of fields based on whether or not information found in another column of fields is the same or specific text. Please see below screenshot of what I would like it to do.
I would like a Sum of all Amounts that have the Code A...

You can use this script as the custom calculation script of "SumOfA":
var total = 0;
for (var i=0; i<=2; i++) {
if (this.getField("p1TC."+i).value=="Code A")
total+=Number(this.getField("p1RecIn."+i).value);
event.value = total;
You can easily adjust it for the other field as well.
