Excel addin Option

I'm retrieving data in Essbase V11.1.1.3 using Excel addin. I have the Global option turned on to Display Unknow Members Warning message. If retrieve an unknown member, the addin doesn't display the warning message. I'm not sure why this happens.

Yes, I have checked the addin options in the Tools->Addins of the excel menu, and now I am able to connect to the Essbase using the Excel Addin. Thanks for the advise....
But I want to know why, When I did right clicking on the Database, and select preview data, it is giving an error message that "Exception: Failed to connect to the EDS Server for grid view. Cannot sign on to domain.NULL argument (4) passed to EESAPI function ESSLogin".
You said try harding the ID and the password for the EAS Server. I dont know what is hardcoding mean? I am beginner with essbase. Your help would be help me a lot,
I would be very thankful to you......

Hi SM,
Make sure its not in the Disabled Items of the Excel.
Click on File > Options > Add-Ins > Manage: Disabled Items > GO.
A new window will open where you can see the disabled items. There you can see the essexcln.xll file just click on it and enable it. Close your all excel sheet and then reopen.
Hope this helps.

Excel Addin stops working when an other excel spread sheet is open

Hi,
I'm sure many would have faced this issue of,excel addin retreive either gets no results or gives an error message when an other spread sheet is active.
Is there a work around or any option set up to get over this isssue. The version of essbase 11.1.2.1
Thanks
SC

it happens when you open many excels ..and which u cant see in ur own desktop ..where when u go to task manager u can see excel process running at back end by killing those u can overcome the issue
more over some time .xla gets corrupted or disabled which can be solved by going to excel help >about excel u can find disabled .xla files which u can refresh ...
l..
And some time u can see u try to retrive data in one sheet where data will be retrieved in another sheet ...like this there are many where the list is endless .. so mostly restarting excel will do ..Hope this gives u some workaround :)

Excel addin retrieve problem 2007

Hello all,
I am trying to retrieve the dimensions in the excel addin 2007 after I connected to DB.
It is throwing below error.
**No data was generated suppress missing = [TRUE],Zeros = [FALSE], Sheet not overwritten**
Please can anybody suggest what is the cause. Shall I re install the excel addin
Thanks in advance

No need to reinstall the add-in. Go into the Essbase options and turn off suppress missing and suppress zeros and you should be fine. IT is just telling you that with them on no data is being returned

How to retrieve sharepoint list data and show it on excel-addin using C#

Hi,
we have a sharepoint list where all students are present. we wanted to get the data from the list and show it via excel addin (VSTO) (something like save,retrieve buutons) . we have some more business logic which need to be performed before the data is retrieved
. once data is shown on excel , user modifies it and update/save the record back to sharepoint.
can you please give some samples and suggest any links to start with development.
Thanks
chaitu

Hi chaituatp,
For this requirement, I would suggest you to get familiar with how to create VSTO applications, and how SharePoint object model works. Here are some sample code about this:

How can I disable excel addin on the Server side?

Hi, is there any way to disable excel addin on the server side?
We want to disable it so that no one can modify or read data in the cube in the production environment, even if he or she had installed the add in. Instead, we provide the Planning data forms as the only interface for end-users to read and write. we do this because the add in is very easy to install and users can read and write data in the cube at their will.
As we designed to keep the security filters simple, it is not a good idea to controll data access through security filters.
so, what i'm asking is how to disable excel addin on the server side?
Thank you for replying.
Edited by: user4592285 on 2012-10-18 上午6:48

Hi,
As Gurus suggested, you will have to restrict viewing of data through dimension level security.
Give access of members to users, only which are relevant to users so that they can't view other user's data/members.
Like give access of members belonging to HR dept only to HR users and give access of Finance dept related members to finance users only.
Hence HR users will view only HR relevant data and won't be able to view (read or write) finance related data and vice-sa-versa.
Hope this helps

Essbase Excel Addin on 64 Bit Windows 7 and 64 bit Office 2010

Hi Everyone,
I have installed 11.1.2.2 on server with Essbase and Shared Services.
Now, on the client I have 64 bit Windows 7 and 64 bit office 2010.
I tried installing Excel Addin client only (without Essbase client) and restarted machine after install.
After install Addin didnt come up automatically and i tried to manually set the add-in, I'm getting an error "This is not a valid add-in"
Is it because i am using 64 bit of office and have to go back to 32 bit.
Isnt 64 bit supported for latest 11.1.2.2 Essbase ?
Any ideas or experience in this regard will be helpful to me as our company is going for Windows 7 and Office 2010 across the business users and if 64 bit Office is not supported or has issues i would have to suggest them to go with 32 bit Office 2010.
Thank you.

for 64 bit i guess its not avaiable for 2010 excel

Excel addins and essbase authentication flow in 11.1.2.2

Hi Team,
Can you please let me know how enterprise authentication flow happens between excel addins and Essbase. Please let me how when I provided enterprise userid/password for authentication in excel addins, where does the authentication happens. Does the essbase agent authenticate directly against LDAP or it has a different flow for authenticating the user.
Thanks for your time and input

Hi Abhishek,
Can you please explain CAPI . Did you meant Common API?
Can you please let me know if userid/password property are sent directly to external directory server (LDAP/AD) from the essbase server when a user is passing userid/password from Excel addin.

Excel addin error

Hi,
I am using EPM 11.1.2.2 and I have office 2010 and excel addins 11.1.2.2. While retrieving I am getting the below error. I tried the solution provided in the link "http://oraclebrasil.wordpress.com/2011/11/09/error-essbase-has-encountered-an-internal-excel-error-when-retrieving-in-excel-with-essbase-excel-add-in-11-1-1-3/" but since I am having around 500 columns I am loosing the the columns after 256 while saving it as 'Excel 97-2003 Workbook’ .
Error: “Essbase has encountered an internal Excel error. Your sheet will not be overwritten and none of your data will be lost. However, you are strongly urged to exit Excel and restart in order to clear up the problem”
Can you please advise.

Think about using Smartview (since you are having 500 columns, that's too many columns if you ask me). Or split your sheets in such a way that it has only 256 columns.

How to check from code in Excel Addin that Excel is embedded in Microsoft word

We've developed an Excel Addin in C# for Excel 2010 and it works perfectly OK. But one issue is reported very recently as below.
1. Microsoft word document is created with an embedded excel work sheet.
2. Save the document and close.
3. Open the word document and try to edit the work sheet there.
4. Following error comes.
"The program used to create this object is Excel. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding.
To edit this object, install Excel or ensure that any dialog boxes in Excel are closed."
5. This is because, our Addin is initialized and one excel process is running.
6. If the Excel Addin is disabled, above work flow works correctly.
Please let me know how to determine from the Excel Addin that the excel worksheet is embedded in another applicatoin. Because I want to disable the Addin in those cases and enable it if the Excel is opened standalone. The Addin is developed in C#.

Hi,
Since the error message, please try to install this Hotfix test if it works:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2596494
Note: Delete the Excel instance running in the background(Go to your task manager and delete it) before opening your Word document and edit your embedded Excel.
If the issue still exists, please see the article and try the solution which I copied here:
"The basic simple answer is to place a Marshal.ComReleaseObject(Wb) at the end (or better, in the Finally block) of your event handlers. This will properly allow Word and excel to handle the OLE communication by not having VSTO hang on to an instance
handle of the workbook, therefore causing the error.
And this is not carte blanche to start placing ComReleaseObject() all over your code. I have found VERY VERY few limited cases where using ComReleaseObject() in an add-in necessary. And this is one of them."

Use of Excel Addin when MDS is using https

We have set up MDS with a secure connection using https and a certificate for SSL connection, bound to the default site for MDS. When we try and use the Excel addin, it throws an error : Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel
with authority {server root address}
Can anyone help?

Does web ui works from the same machine excel is running?
When you connect to the WebUI, the browser will show a smart icon in the address bar for certificate. If you open it, does it say the certificate is valid?
1. The certificate should be valid. If it is self signed certificate, you need add this certificate to Trusted Root.
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754841.aspx
2. The certificate name should match the service name.
If the webUI works on that machine without any warning in browser, the excel addin should work with the exact same server url.
