Essbase Studio Alternate Hierarchy Creation error

Hi All,
I'm using Essbase Studio to create an alternate hierarchy. I have a dim which has shared members and I'm getting the following error msg during cube deployment:
1. Record #1- Member Name (SKU) already used i.e. the member for which I m trying to create shared member
     I m following the same procedure mentioned in the user guide i.e.
        Step1: create a copy of the dimension element that you want to designate as a shared member(Renamed SKU_copy with SKU_Diet). By making a copy, the binding expression for this element is the same as the original dimension element (SKU_Diet).
       Step2: when you create the second hierarchy in the chain, which is the alternate hierarchy, add a user-defined membas the parent and add the new dimension element (SKU_Diet) as the child, which will be the shared member.
     Even I m able to see the shared members (SKU_Diet) under user defined member "Diet" under the preview window (both by key binding and caption binding) as wel..
     But I m unable to see the shared members in EAS console after deploying the cube from Essbase Studio to EAS Console.
I m not able to understand what I m missing exactly,.and suggest me other ways as well for creating alternate hierarchies in Essbase Studio.
Thanks in advance..!!

looks like similar issue..

Essbase Studio - SmartView - Drill Through Error

Hello!
I'm creating a drill through report using Essbase Studio 11.1.1.2. Built the Context, the Report Content and Associations. Perform an ad-hoc analysis via SmartView. Perform a Hyperion | Drill Through Reports and the follow error occurs:
Unable to list Essbase Studio Drill Through Reports : Error in the statement interpret. Line = 1109
Anyone know what causes this and how to resolve it?
Thanks,
Bob

The issue was due to using transformations to prefix characters to ids. The drill through couldn't resolve the cube member name to the data in the tables.
For example, if your source data for your accounts table has an member id of 1, 2, 3 etc. But you use a prefix of A in transformation to build the member in Essbase (A1, A2, A3, etc.), drill through can't resolve it. Drill through is going back to the table and searching for A1, A2 or A3. The table has 1, 2, or 3. A string is not a number, that's the error that basically occurs.
Solution - I updated my tables to have the prefixes (and data types) and removed the transformations. That way when drilling, the Essbase member matches up with the table id.
Thanks,
Bob

Essbase Studio Deployment Dimension Build Errors

I have a ASO cube used to handle Subsidiary financial reporting to parent. Rather than alternate hierarchies, we use attribute dimensions for yearly differentiation. The ASO cube typically holds information for Current year + 3 prior years. This is the first year that we will achieve this as this cube was created near the beginning of 2010. Therefore, with the cube already having attribute dimension for 2010 & 2011, with the beginning of 2013 it is necessary to create the 2012 attribute dimensions. The cube has 13 anchor dimensions. Typically only 4 of these dimensions have attribute dimensions derived from them. Nonetheless, the following is the build list of the dimensions in the essbase model:
1: Financials Standard, Dynamic, Sparse
2: GL Date Time, Stored, Sparse
3: Incident Date Standard, Stored, Sparse
4: View Standard, Dynamic, Dense
5: Company Standard, Multiple-hierarchy, Sparce
6: Well location Standard, Stored, Sparse
7: Depletion Code Standard, Stored, Sparse
8: Vendor Standard, Stored, Sparse
9: Entity Standard, Stored, Sparse
10: Profit Center Standard, Stored, Sparse
11: Curr Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
12: Past Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
13: Measures Accounts, Dynamic, Existing
Attribute dimensions are mainly created in 4 of the Defined Hierarchies with in the cube; 1:FINANCIALS, 5:COMPANY, 6:WELL Location, & 10:PROFIT CENTER.
According to the Essbase Server log, upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates 19 Dimension Build rule files with the associated SQL to pull members from our SQL Dimension Build tables obviously based on the way the Hierarchy is built as well as the joins created in the MiniSchema in the referenced Data Source. The COMPANY Hierarchy generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, WELL LOCATION generates only 1 Dimension Build rule file (this is mainly due to the fact that all the attributes generated from WELL LOCATION are built from the same table), and PROFIT CENTER Generates 3 Dimension build rule files. At this point for comparison purposes I want to include excerpts from the Server Deployment Log file depicting the dimension build rule files generated from the PROFIT CENTER Hierarchy:
Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
… FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON (cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul
… FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul
FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_276.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
These Dimension Build rule files are recreated nightly on 4 different production servers, each one successfully redeploying nightly with zero errors.
So now I need to add the new 2012 tables to the Data Source/MiniSchema, create the joins in the MiniSchema mimicking the joins for the 2010 & 2011 Attribute Dimensions. It would be difficult to demonstrate the joins in the MiniSchema but trust me they are there and this is proven by the additional Dimension Build rule files from the appropriate Hierarchies.
So on our test server, which is configured exactly like all 4 of our production servers, I have begun the creation of the 2012 attribute dimensions. I begin with the FINANCIALS Hierarchy adding 7 new attribute dimensions, 6 that are cross table and one that is inter-table.
At this point no changes have been made to any of the other 3 Hierarchies that contain Attribute dimensions; COMPANY, WELL LOCATION, or PROFIT CENTER. They still look exactly as they did in the current state discussed above. Upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates , as expected 25 Dimension Build rule files, 6 additional because only 6 were cross table attributes, the 7th was within the anchor table and therefore would be included in the first dimension build rule file. COMPANY still generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, again as expected. WELL LOCATION still generates only the 1 Dimension rule file also as expected. Lastly, PROFIT CENTER also again only generates the 3 Dimension Rule files, however, one has materially changed as noted below:
Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
…FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON ((cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) AND (cp_328.[profit_center_code]=cp_319.[profit_center_code])) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul (This one did not change)
…FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul (This one did not change)
…FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]=cp_276.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
The change in Rule 1 above appears to now require something different from the previous deployment and when we run the deployment now it runs forever and ultimately fails, yet no changes have been made to the Hierarchy, no changes have been made to the MiniSchema involving joins to the tables used in the building of the Hierarchy, and no new tables have been added to the data source that would affect this Hierarchy.
Additionally, I have also run each of these incrementally, and the PROFIT CENTER even incrementally still makes the change to the SQL statement shown above.
So finally, to my question, Why and What caused this Dimension Build Rule file to change and ultimately led to deployment failure? Has anyone ever encountered this in Essbase Studio Deployments?

Gurus, anybody anything on this one??
I haave done a small adjustment in the dimension order by which I have eliminated the following error:
Record #40 - Error adding Dynamic calc property to member xxxxxxxxx (3320)
Record #40 - No time dimension defined
But, I have the following new error/warning (cube build successfull in this case) when I made this adjustment:
Record #427 - Error adding Attribute to member PATB4_ADJ-PDA (3320)
The adjustment I made is... I moved TIME dimension up and ACCOUNT dimension below that...so the order I have now is TIME,ACCOUNT,SCENATRIO,XXX,XXXX instead of ACCOUNT,TIME,SCENARIO,XXX,XXXXX ..*would this create any performance issues?*

Essbase Studio drill thru report error

Hi All,
Essbase studio drill thru report is producing the below error: Unable to retrieve drill thru result.
Error in the select statement. Line = 2466.
Error in query execution. Please review the query and try again.
Cannot execute a SQL query
ORA-01791: not a SELECTed expression
Any idea... i am able to test for some of the dimensions but this error is coming for a few dimensiosns .... i verified all the joins between dimensions and facts.. everything is fine.
Thanks,
Praveen

Hi Glenn,
This is a test report executed with in Studio console. Yes, i did verify the generated sql by studio server and was able to drill down to the detail. I dont find any information in the logs when testing this. Probably, i would need to increase logging level. Will do that and update here if i dont find much help there.
Thanks,

Essbase Studio :: Measure Hierarchy :: "accounts not from fact"

Hello,
I am trying to build a Measure dimension in Essbase Studio not from fact table, but from parent-child metamodel table.
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/est_user/frameset.htm?ch10s03s02s05.html]
Here I've read that I should add loose measure creating cube schema to Measures/Measure Hierarchy field.
What loose measure? I added column from fact table. In Essbase metamodel it created Measure dimension with that one member.
Is it even possible to create measure dimension not from fact table?
Thanx in advance,
L00ka
Edited by: 990463 on Feb 26, 2013 7:40 AM

The approach to take is to create a hierarchy from your measures table, then use the data column from your fact table to populate the measures box in the schema. When building the Essbase model, select the accounts dimension manually.
Oracle recommend that you build the measures dimension directly from your fact table, the above approach deems it a loose measure, that is it isn't based off the fact table.

Hi,
The essbase studio server will need to be started before you can use the client, the client connections to the studio server.
It is the equivalent of saying why can't I use EAS client without starting the EAS app server.
You can also set up studio as a windows service, have a read here

Essbase Studio Error in 11.1.2.2

Hi Everyone,
I have installed hyperion 11.1.2.2 in windows 2008 Server and configured sucessfully however when i click on essbase studio console i am getting the below error.
A javaruntime environment (JRE) or java development kit (JDK) must be available. No Virtual Machine was found after searching the following locations.
C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\Essbasestudio\console\jre\bin\javaw.exe
javaw.exe is current path.
i don't see the javaw.exe file in the above path. Kindly help me in this.
Regards,
AS

If you edit
<MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console\startStudio.bat
then you will probably see "set JAVA_HOME=..." is pointing to an incorrect location
As the Studio console is 32bit then it needs to point to a 32bit JRE e.g.
set JAVA_HOME="E:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\common\JRE"

Error while deploying Essbase studio

Hi All,
I need some help with the studio deployment error. I have created a bat script to run Maxl which will deploy essbase studio, then create some user defined measures using rules files and then calculation.
When I ran the batch script first time, it was successful. Now its giving me the following error :
BPM Connect Status: Success
Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
Caused by: Cannot begin incremental build. Essbase Error(1007151): Wrong incremental dimension build sequence
BPM maxl deployment ...failure.
Please help
Thanks

There is no issue for BSO cubes. Internally the BSO outlines are different from ASO cubes and this restriction does not appear in them. For ASO cubes, the problem is caused by deleting and readding dimensions. If you do incremental builds on dimensions, you will not have the 255 dimension issue, but the ASO outline will still grow. So the compaction utility in EsscmdQ is still valid for that.
