Essbase sample basic

<p>can we write a calc script for Sample Basic that limits everynumber in the database to two decimal places.</p>

As an enhancement to the cube you could add a new dimension (call it "View"). Make it Dense with one stored member called input. Then add a dynamic calc member called "Round" and set the formula to round the values stored in the input member. This will let your users and/or source systems continue to load as usual (load to "Input" member), and for reporting you will have the rounded numbers. Since it's dynamic calc, there is no need for an additional consolidation, it will run on the fly. Lastly, since you made it a dense dimension with only one stored member, you do not increase your block size and your overall performance should not be impacted by the change.

  • Error loading Sample Basic in Essbase

    Hi,
    Has anyone had this issue? I tried to load the data for Sample Basic DB in Essbase in a Windows Vista 32 pc and got this error msg:
    Database Basic loaded
    Database East loaded
    Database Xchgrate loaded
    Database Interntl loaded
    Unable to Connect to Database [East]
    What does the last line mean and how do I fix it? I didn't encounter this when I was running it on a different machine (XP). All I've done was run the Calcdat.txt file after choosing load data for Sample db on server. Thx.

    Hi,
    First of all Vista/XP both are not supported OS for Essbase server; though XP may work fine but for better results we stick with only Win 2000/Win 2003.
    Else you can continue with XP and if you have same issue with XP then please post it we will together solve it.
    Thanks

  • Retrieving sample basic using  Excel add in

    Hi I am having problems accessing the sample basic database using excel, I see the sample basic in Application/Database and I get an error which states that "Unable to load database[Basic]". I get this error for all the the sample databases. The system administrator said the databases were installed with the essbase, but I still can't retrieve them. Anyone has any suggestions as to why this may be occurring.Thanks,

    It's not a problem with the Add-In.The database was not Installed correctly. You need to rebuild the Sample Basic application. Can you check to see if all the DB files were installed.Look in the C:\essbase\app\Sample\Basic directory you should see these files, or atleast the outline.Basic.otlBasic.indBasic.esmBasic.tctEss000001.INDEss000001.PAGDo you know how to do this? If you want e-mail me and I'll walk you through it.Regards,Corey BidmeadClarity [email protected]

  • Simple Qustion: No data shown in the retrieval of Sample.Basic database

    Hi All,
    I'm a very beginner to Essbase, I'm getting started with essbase add-in tutorial, when I retrieve the data from Sample.Basic, it only returned the dimension names, there is no data in the intersections, it show #Missing in the cells, the tutorial shows there are data in the sample.basic database, why am I not able to get it displayed?, thank you so much
    the following is how it displayed after I retrieved the sample.basic:
         Measures     Product     Market     Scenario
    Year     #Missing               
    Maybe I did not configure the option items correctly?
    Best Regards.

    Just a comment about my nemesis' note:
    You need to load data and potentially calculate it (I know Cameron you don't but it does not hurt).^^^The reason you don't need to calculate the data is because CALCDAT.txt already contains the consolidated results. Glenn is correct in saying that calculation doesn't hurt, but there's really no point.
    FWIW, the reason there's no point is because CALCDAT.txt is a full export of Sample.Basic, that is, every valued data point is contained within the data file. Thus, when calculation occurs it just overwrites the data values that were already loaded.
    As we are talking about a second or so to do the calculation, this matters not a whit, but I thought it might be instructive when you finally get to a real database. Full exports, when loaded back into an empty Essbase database, do not need to be recalculated.

  • I need sample basic data file containing Product,Market,Measures etc

    I need sample basic data file containing Product,Market,Measures etc to load data in to Sample Basic applications. Where can I get this?

    As I am the World Domain Lead for Sample.Basic (this is a joke, btw, it's sort of like being King of my front stoop, and besides, I just made it up) I will note two things about CALCDAT.TXT.
    1) It is not in columnar format, but instead in Essbase free-form data load format as user2571802 notes. This means if you take a look at it with a text editor, it's a bit confusing to read till you realize that it contains all dimensional information in the data file itself. See the DBAG's section on [Data Sources That Do Not Need A Rules File|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_esb_dbag/ddlintro.htm#ddlintro1029529].
    2) CALCDAT.TXT contains level 0 and calculated results. Just load it -- there's no need to calculate it.

  • Sample Basic Database

    Hello everybody,
    I am new to Essbase and learning to use it for financial analysis. I need to retrieve data from the sample basic database, but when i do so, it shows missing values. Any idea as to what can be done in this case.....please help ! I tried supressing the missing values and now it shows errors. :-((

    You have to go into EAS and load data for the database. The filename to load for Sample Basic is 'calcdata.txt' and you do not need a load rule for this file. I always do a calc on the database after the load is complete; in this case, the calc may be optional as I think the calc'ed values may already be in the load file..

  • Sample.basic on laptop?

    I am new to essbase and every book I have on the subject references sample.basic. Is it advisable to install this on my laptop, or would it be too burdensome?

    It might be that your laptop is not high enough spec or is not running a supported OS, anyway if you want to install Essbase and have no experience in installing EPM products then it might be worth checking out the rapid deployment guide - Rapid Deployment

  • How to recreate sample basic

    Hi
    We deleted sample basic after we installed Essbase (11.1.1.3). Now some users want to have sample basic available to practice. Do anyone know how to recreate sample basic in Essbase?
    Thanks

    opening the zip file it looks like all of the files are there. So from EAS create the Sample application (BSO non unicode) and then create the database Basic. Stop the application then copy all of the files in the zip into the basic directory on the server (pathing may vary based on what version you are using) but there should be an app\sample\basic directory. Then start the app and you should be good to go

  • Help: essbase sample database no data

    Hi all,
    I am newbie for essbase. I have installed the essbase server/client components. But I found there are no any data in sample database. eg, ASosamp.Sample, Demo.basic. by Visualize&Explore with excel addin.
    Who could please tell me how to have real data for good experience. Did I make a mistaken in installing procedure?
    Also appreciated to where to download other good demonstration database,
    Thanks in advance.
    seamus

    The data for the database is in a file called Calcdata.txt It is in an export file format so you don't need a load rule to load it. In AAS right click on the database name, select load data, the find the file and click ok. it will load without errors. Than you will need to calculate the dtabase. Agailn right click on the database name and select calculate. Select default and click ok. In a second or two the db will be calculated

  • Essbase Visual Basic API - Help File locations

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone can help. Normally on XP Office 2003 I can get the VBA help via Help->Essbase Help. However I'm on Vista Office 2007 and when I goto the Add Ins->Essbase Help, I get an error that states:
    Why can't I get Help from this program?
    The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which was used in previous versions of Windows and it is not supported in Windows Vista.
    For more information, see Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe) is no longer included with Windows on the Microsoft support website.
    So I need another way to access these help files.. Is there another way to do this??????
    Thanks,

    loading data from the VB api uses the import function. Look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_esb_api/topapilist.htm for the system 9 version of the documentation. The document gives you samples for different functions you will need. from initialization, login, import, logout and termination

  • Sample basic program 4 dialog programming

    hi
       can any one send me the sample code 4 simple dialog programming....

    Hi Sandy,
    Simple Dialog Programming:
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
    MODULE 0250_STATUS.
    LOOP.
    MODULE STATUS_0120.
    ENDLOOP.
    LOOP.
    MODULE STATUS_0110.
    ENDLOOP.
    LOOP.
    MODULE STATUS_0100.
    ENDLOOP.
    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
    MODULE REFRESH_0250.
    LOOP.
    MODULE USER_COMMAND_0120.
    ENDLOOP.
    LOOP.
    MODULE USER_COMMAND_0110.
    ENDLOOP.
    For example, if the user enter the Delete Screen, you will make all the Fields non-Editable.
    *& Module 0250_STATUS OUTPUT
    text *
    MODULE 0250_STATUS OUTPUT.
    SET PF-STATUS 'Z250'.
    SET TITLEBAR 'Z250'.
    IF OKSAVE = 'DEL'.
    Make the SAVE Menu button inactive
    SET PF-STATUS 'Z250' EXCLUDING 'SAVE'.
    Make all the Fields non-Editable
    LOOP AT SCREEN.
    SCREEN-INPUT = 0.
    MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
    For example, if the user enter the Modify Screen, you will make all the Fields Group 1 that
    have a 'M' non-Editable.
    You specify the 'M' for Group 1 using the Screen Painter Attribute
    IF OKSAVE = 'MOD'.
    Make the DELE Menu button inactive
    SET PF-STATUS 'Z250' EXCLUDING 'DELE'.
    Make all the Fields Groups 'M' non-Editable
    LOOP AT SCREEN.
    check screen-group1 = 'M'.
    SCREEN-INPUT = 0.
    MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
    CLEAR OKCODE.
    ENDMODULE.
