Essbase 7.x Excel Add In Compatibility?

Is Essbase 7.x Excel Add in compatible with Essbase 11? We would like the users to keep the Essbase 7.x Excel add in and only migrate Essbase server to 11.x.
Please advise.

Essbase 11 does not have a separate installable for Excel Add In. I think we have to use the 3GB installable to install just the Excel Add In. This will be a problem if I have to uninstall the old Add In and install the new Add in for 200 users.

  • Login Issue while connecting to Essbase server through excel add-in.

    Hi Guys,
    We are using Essbase 7.1.6 and have users (All are external users) who will connect to Essbase as part of month end close. Recently i am facing the below problem .
    One of our user is trying to connect to Essbase and he is getting *"Login fails due to Inavlid login credentials"*. I am 100% sure he did not change his password also entered correct password.
    But i manage to resolve this by disabling & enabling the user through EAS. Then user was able to connect to essbase with same userid & password.
    My question is why this is happening quiet frequently? What could be the problem? This is happening with one or two users only not all users.
    Please share your views if some one face this problem before?
    Thanks in advance..
    Ram.

    Just keep in mind that Users lie. Maybe not intentionally, but they lie. All of them. 9 times out of 10. Just because they say something is so, doesn't mean that it is.
    I can't begin to count the number of times that they have said "I am using my correct password" and it turns out that they forgot and are using an old one, or the one for some other system or are just fat fingering it. Or they shared it with someone else who is now entering it incorrectly. Don't believe a word that they say.

  • Essbase excel add-on error after installing IR Studio.

    Hyperion software compatibility issues?
    Getting Essbase excel add-on error ("Error 1040007 Cannot find message database") after installing Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio 9.3.1. We are able to consistently reproduce the error on several workstations.
    Any ideas?
    Thx,
    Ernesto

    Try installing IR first, followed by the Essbase client. I think that worked for us. I can't recall what our path looked like in that scenario I just remember if we did it in that order things worked fine. I think Support said there is no certain "install order" that truly fixes the problem, that you have to manipluate the path by hand. But I'm pretty sure installing IR first worked in our enviro.
    I do not know of a way to install IR Studio without the Essbase components, my understanding from Support is that they changed the product install thinking it was better this way, they learned after the fact it actually causes the problem you experienced. I would imagine they've changed/fixed the install behavior again in post 9.3.1 releases, but haven't heard.

  • Essbase Excel Add in not working

    Hi All,
    I have installed hyperion 11.1.2.2 version in windows 2008 server(64 bit system)
    Server is up and running fine.!
    I have installed Excel addin, then i got one issue here. When i opened excel, Smartview is displayed on the top but Essbase is not displayed. I tried so many ways, but no use.

    Mady, I hope you were not trying to open the Add-Ins directly from Windows. The Essbase XLL and XLA work within Excel as Add-Ins, not as executables. When I doubled-clicked on the XLL and XLA, I got the Microsoft Security warning, which I assume that is what you were doing wrong. You can also google Excel Add-Ins on how to manage it if you are not sure what to do. It's very straight forward.

  • System 9 Add-in compatibility with Essbase previous versions

    Hello,
    Is it possible to connect to Essbase 6.5 with the excel Add-in of version System 9 (Smart View for Office)?
    Thanks for your help

    As Robert indicated, you may be able to connect with the classic Excel add-in. You will not be able to connect using Smartview.
    BTW, just because you can connect, that doesn't mean that everything will work properly. Further, Tech Support will tell you it is unsupported if you have any issues and try to get tech support to help you.

  • Essbase Excel add-in error

    We have upgraded to Essbase 6.5.2 and when installing the excel add-in haveencountered the message "R.xls" file cannot be found. Does anyone elseknow anything about this and how to resolve this? The addin works okay,but the users get this message each time they open excel now.JC

    This sounds as if your environment variables are not set correctly or something in your registry has gone astray.I had a similar problem once which was actually caused by another VB application which was removing and adding them back in the add-ins but getting the syntax slightly wrong on the essbase add-in xla's (an extra " being created in the registry).Have you tried completely uninstalling the add-in and re-install?

  • Essbase Excel Add-in for Excel 2013

    Hi There,
    I recently upgrade from Excel 2010 to 2013, it seems Essbase Excel Add-in (1.1.2.2) has some issue with Excel 2013, does anybody experience this too, any advice on this?
    Thanks

    The excel add-in is not certified to work with Excel 2013 and a matter of fact, the only version of Smart View certified with it is 11.1.2..5 which just came out. The Essbase Add-in has not been updated in a shile and has been susetted by Oracle so there will be no new versions of it

  • Essbase Excel Add-in in 11.1.2.1

    Hi All,
    We have Essbase 9.3.1 in our current configuration with Excel Add-In.
    We want to migrate to Essbase 11.1.2.1 but we still want to use Excel Add-In, as we have VBA Macros.
    Please help me regarding this.
    Thanks
    Satya

    So what's the issue? The add-in is alive and well in Essbase 11.1.2.1.
    You might want to look at the very latest and greatest version of Smart View as it gives you near parity (really, really, really close) with the add-in. Yes, I know, VBA requirements, but worth a look.

  • Essbase excel add-in 11.1.2 with office 2010 Excel ?

    Hey, we are using Essbase excel add-in 11.1.2 with office 2010 Excel even though Excel 2010 is not supported by Oracle. Do you know of any other users using it with Excel 2010? Any problems reported?

    Looks like it: Re: Hyperion Essbase Excel Addin - Unable to connect
    But the OP in that thread never posted what solved his problem, if it was ever solved.

  • Essbase Excel Add-In (11.1.2.1) and Office 2010

    I was wondering if anyone knows if the Essbase Excel Add-In (v11.1.2.1) is compatible in Office 2010 (64-bit)?
    I found some search results from about 6-8 months ago saying that it was supported in Office 2010, but not in the 64-bit edition. Does anyone know if this has changed and if this is in fact supported?
    If not supported has it been tested to at least work?
    Thank you in advance.

    Have a read of the following on Oracle Support - Support for Office 2010 in Essbase Excel Add-In and Smart View [ID 1191235.1]
