Essbase Studio query

Hi All,
In my project i have a requirement of calculating date difference for measures which is not supported in Essbase studio.
To do that I need to create a user defined table and define the sql query. As I have vast number of measure column in my app ,every time creating a user defined table will not work.
So can u plz suggest me whether i have other option to achieve this?
->Do i need to create Calculation scripts in EAS for this?
->Can we build outline in Studio, then deploy it into Essbase and later from EAS can we load data to that application by connecting through Data source??
Thanks
Lolita

Hi John,
I am seeing this issue when trying to validate the User-Defined SQL from <drillthrureportname> -> ReportContens tab -> Template SQL -> User-Defined SQL ->Validate.
Thanks,

Data load error in essbase studio

I get the following error when trying to load an ASO cube using Essbase Studio (EPM 11.1.2). This error doen't seem to be documented in any of the Essbase manuals. Question - does this error indicate an essbase server issue or a data source issue? I'm thnking it's datasource related, but my data source is an Oracle database, which I've used previously to load cubes without a problem. I've refreshed the source and can connect to it fine otherwise.
Error:
Data load started at: Fri Dec 03 08:52:21 EST 2010. Data load elapsed time: 10 Minutes 23 Seconds.
Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
Caused by: Failed to load data into database: 8020.
Caused by: Cannot execute a SQL query
Caused by: Io exception: Socket read timed out

Appreciate any hel with this issue.

When I have issues with Studio I try to break it down slowly. I build my dimensions one at a time. If it breaks on a single dimension build I trace the issues backwards and usually find my issue in the schema.
Studio's role in life is to create SQL load rules and as such depend on a good schema definition. Unforntunately, the dimension build rules can't be opened in EAS with the Dataprep Editor (regular load rules) because they're binary and can do things that a normal load rule cannot (text measures, date measures, time varying attributes, etc.). But that doesn't mean the .rul files are un-readable. If you're having trouble with a particular dimension build process, open the load rule it creates with something like Notepad and grab the SQL that Studio is generating and drop it into Toad (or equivalant) to see if it is generating usable code. If not, there's something wrong with your modeling and you need to go back to the mini-schema.
When you're able to build all dimensions all at the same time, you're almost there. If your issues comes when you want to build and load data, the final debuging steps go quickly. Towards that end, the data load rules (ones that load data vs. building dimensions) generated by Studio can be edited in EAS using the Dataprep Editor. If you know SQL Load Rules, you should be able to figure out. If not, contact John Goodwin, OCS or a partner and set up a consulting visit.

Essbase Studio Performance Issue : Data load into BSO cube

Hello,
Having succesfully built my outline by member loading through Essbase Studio, I have tried to load data into my application again with Studio. However I was never able to complete the data load because it is taking forever. Each time I tried to work with Studio in streaming mode (hoping to increase the query speed), the load gets terminated due to the following error : Socket read timed out.
In the Studio properties file, I typed in, oracle.jdbc.ReadTimeout=1000000000, but the result has not changed. Even if it did work out, I am also not sure the streaming mode is gonna provide a much faster alternative to working in non-streaming mode. What I'd like to know is, which Essbase settings I can change (either in Essbase or Studio server) in order to speed up my data load. I am loading into a Block Storage database with 3 Dense, 8 Sparse and 2 attribute dimensions. I filtered some dimensions and tried to load data to see exactly how long it takes to create a certain number of blocks. With ODBC setting in Essbase Studio, it took me 2.15 hours to load data into my application where only 153 blocks were created with the block size of 24B. Assuming that in my real application the number of Blocks created are going to be at least 1000 times more than this , I need to make some changes in settings. I am transferring the data from Oracle Database, with 5 tables joined to a fact table (view) from the same data source. All the cache settings in Essbase are in default mode. Would changing cache settings, buffer size or multiple threads help to increase the performance? Or what would you suggest that I should do?
Thank you very much.

Hello user13695196 ,
(sorry I no longer remember my system number here)
Before it comes to any optimisation attemps in the essbase (also Studio) environment you should definitily make clear that your source data query performs well at the oracle db.
I would recommand:
1. to create in your db source schema a View from your sql statement (these behind your data load rule)
2. query against this view with any GUI (Sql Developer, TOAD etc.) to fetch all rows and measure the time it takes to complete. Also count the effected (returned) number of rows for your information and for future comparing of results.
If your query runs longer then you think is acceptable then
a) check DB statistiks,
b) check and/or consider creating indexes
c) if you are unsure then kindliy ask your DBA for help. Usually they can help you very fast.
(Don't be shy - a DBa is a human being like you and me :-) )
Only when your sql runs fast (enough for you; or your DBA says is the best you can achieve) at the database move your effort over to essbase.
One hint in addition:
We had often problems when using views for dataload (not only performance but rather other strange behavior) . Thats the reaons why I like more directly to set up on (persistence) tables.
Just to keep in mind: If nothing helps create a table from your view and then query your data from this table for your essbase data load. Normaly however this should be your last option.
Best Regards
(also to you Torben :-) )

Parent-Child Relationships in Essbase Studio

In Essbase Studio, I am defining a hierarchy in which a parent member (Wholesaler) is from one dimension table and child member (Rep) is from another. When I preview this hierarchy or build an outline to include it, a few of the Reps that should rollup to a certain Wholesaler are missing. They are not dropped, but Essbase Studio just never recognizes these Reps as being children of that Wholesaler in the first place. However, if I run a sql query against the source data mart with the correct joins, these missing reps do show up in the records of that Wholesaler. Also, the missing Reps are showing up fine in the hierarchy preview as long as I don't make them children of anything in the Wholesaler dim. So Essbase Studio is able to see these Reps, but just can't figure out how they are related to the given Wholesaler. Again, this is only happening for about 10% of the Reps for the Wholesaler. Other Reps are showing up fine in the parent-child relationship.
In the source data mart, I don't see any NULLs or anything amiss in the records for the missing Reps. What other reasons would Essbase Studio not recognize a particular joined record?

it really does sound like a join issue. You say if you just load the children without the parent, they load, but if you associte them to the parent, they don't. You might try when creating the joins to do a full outter join to see if they load and to what.
One other thing you could try would be to create a user defined table that has the join in it. I've found data atype issues in joins from different tables before. Studio is very pickey about this

Essbase Studio Drill-through for Recursive Hierarchy - Generation 1

I'm using Essbase Studio 11.1.2.3 to build an ASO cube. All my hierarchies are recursive (parent-child). I would like to define a drill-through report and I understand that I have to use the Advanced Settings option to specify my intersections. Now one of my dimensions is optional for the users - they don't have to specify a member (they can leave it at the highest level - dimension name on the spreadsheet). Under 'Advanced Settings' for DT report in Studio I have to specify a Generation value of 2 or greater than 2. How do I enable drill through in cells where one of the dimension is at Gen1 ? Specifying the level number didn't work. I think if you specify Level in 'Advanced Settings', drill through is allowed only if that specified level of the dimension is chosen, if Gen 2 is specified, then drill through is allowed as long as the dimension-members specified are at or above Gen2. But what about Gen1?

Yep, this is a limitation. I suggest you create two reports one that takes your "optional" dimension out and a second one that has it in. if they don't need the dimension, select the first report and if they need the filter then the second. I m always a little leery with recursive hierarchies and Gen 2 or 3 sine they create a list of level 0 members under the selection in the query and there are limits to the number of members in an in clause and at high levels in the hierarchy it is easy to surpass it (In Oracle it is 1000 members)

Essbase Studio Error(1021001): Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Data

Hi.
I have trying to deploy a cube with Essbase Studio but I get the error: "*Error(1021001): Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server*"
My environment is Linux 5, Oracle 11g and EPM 11.1.1.2. Oracle database and Essbase was installed with diferent users. In the .bash_profile of hypadmin user (that install Essbase) I have set the following variables
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracledb/product/11.1.0

In my pc (windows xp) I can open Essbase Studio console, do the connection to Oracle database, get tables and create minischema, mesures and hierarchies (I can see the preview of hierarchies). Also I can create cubes with EAS and can connect with MAXSHELL to essbase.
When I try to deploy the cube from Essbaes Studio y get the error "Error(1021001): Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server".

Hi,
If you type database SID in lowercase, try to reenter iot in uppercase. Strange, but I and my colleagues encounter this behaviour many times.

Issue with Drill Through Reports in Essbase Studio.

Hi,
we are using essbase studio to drill through to the source table in Oracle.In drill through definition the query is like , select * from source where (Project IN ($$PROJECTS-VALUE$$)). Project column is located in source table and PROJECTS-VALUES are located in Essbase under project dimension and we will select the values in smart view. we are using smart view to check drill through reports.In smart view, If i select one member at gen-2 level which contains 1450 level-0 members,It is saying as error in executing the report in line 1972. Is there any limitation with IN condition , such that oracle takes only limited values like count of 999.we are facing issue only at gen-2 of project and it is working good from gen-3.
Please let me know is there any kind of certain limitation.

It is possible you are overloading the parser. If the projects table/view is a recursive join, when Studio creates the $$Project-value$$ is actaully returns all the level zero members under the member selected(at least in 11.1.2.X. If the list is huge, it might have problems. I would open an SR to see if there is a limit. It might be number of characters or values

Essbase studio drill thru report Test 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- DTS Issue 11.1.2.1

Hi Everyone,
A few months ago, we built our cube through Essbase Studio so that we could allow drill through reports on the cube.
We set Dynamic Time Series on our PERIOD dimension at the Year and Quarter Level.
Our hierarchy looks like this:
PERIOD
|--BEGBALANCE
|--YEARTOTAL
|--|--H1
|--|--|--Q1
|--|--|--|--APR
|--|--|--|--MAY
|--|--|--|--JUN
|--|--|--Q2
|--|--|--|--JUL
|--|--|--|--AUG
|--|--|--|--SEP
|--|--H2
|--|--|--Q3
|--|--|--|--OCT
|--|--|--|--NOV
|--|--|--|--DEC
|--|--|--Q4
|--|--|--|--JAN
|--|--|--|--FEB
|--|--|--|--MAR
In Studio, we built this dimension as a recursive hierarchy and NOT level based.
Our settings are Time (DTS) however we can only choose generation 1 or 2 and cannot put it at gen 2 and 4 where it should be.
We set it as a dense dimension, no two pass, and label only and no formulas or UDAs.
When we run a smart view query with dynamic time series for October (for example), we get an error message [cannot perform cube operation.null].
My coworker then converted the recursive hierarchy to level based just for testing purposes (because we thought the issue was that we built a recursive hierarchy and could only set DTS at gen 1 or 2). After building the hierarchy as level based, we hit the same issue regardless of whether we set the DTS at level or generation.
I am just wondering if anyone has run into this issue before and has a resolution. We are running 11.1.2.1 for version. We have an SR logged with Oracle as of a couple of months ago and they told us they would have a resolution in a week since they were able to duplicate the issue. We have escalated the SR numberous times and have not received a solution yet.
I appreciate your help,
Thanks,
Daniel

I have run into the exact same problem. Did you ever get a resolution? I have also logged a support call so would be interested to know if it is resolved.
Thanks

Essbase Studio and Drill Through

I have created a ASO application in essbase studio through text data source and succesfuly deployed it to essbase server but in smartview and spreadsheet add in drill through reports are not reflecting.
Standard SQL is also not generating while creating drill through reports.
Error:
Error in the statement interpret. Line = 1657.
Error in the make select statement. Line = 1.
Unable to join filter to the rest of the query. Terminating operation...
This is EPM 11.1.2.0.00 on windows 2008 64 bit
Any help?

Hii
Philip thanks ..
you are right in saying that drill-through is not available for txt data at least in Studio and Integration ..
Essbase provides URL-based drill-through access from Essbase client reporting interfaces (such as Smart View or Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, Fusion Edition) to information located on Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications and Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) applications.
In Integration Services and Essbase Studio documentation, drill-through refers to linking a multidimensional database cell to further data; for example, to transaction-level data that is stored in a relational source.

Unable to load data into Essbase cube using Essbase Studio

Hi
We are creating an essbase cube using Essbase Studio using flat files as data sources.
We have taken different hierarchies into different flat files and created one fact file having dimension intersection along with data.
We are able to create the cube and the hierarchy but not able to load any data.
We are getting the following error
Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
Caused by: Unable to perform dataload from more than one flat file.
Could anyone please help on this?

Oh this was killing me, so I did this test in 11.1.1.3:
1) Excel 2007 format -- no go, Essbase didn't see it
2) Excel 2003 format, three sheets -- only the first sheet was read into an empty rule
3) Excel 2003 format, one sheet -- the first sheet was read into an empty rule
4) Excel 95 format, one sheet -- the first sheet was read into an empty rule
The lesson?
1) Excel 2007/2010 sheets don't work (no surprise there as the .xlsx format isn't supported).
2) Excel 2003 and lower (hey, if you have Excel 4, I'll bet that works as well) work, but only the first sheet is recognized.

How to Clear Deployment History in Essbase Studio 11.1.2

Hi All,
I was unable to export the entire catalog in Essbase Studio 11.1.2.So,I posted the issue with Oracle Support and got reply as follows
"found the failure for the export of entire catalog could be related to a large deployment history. In this case there are two options for 11.1.2.0.00 release
1. Try to increase memory setting but on Windows 32-bit platforms ensure it should be below the maximum setting of 2048 MB.
2. If it doesn't help, please try to clean-up deployment history."
Which setting I have to increase
(or)
How to clear the deployment history for a Cube Schema Model.Thanks in Advance
Regards,

increasing the memory have a read of section "Configuring Virtual Memory" - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/est_user.pdf
