DataLoad Rule file - Date conversion

Hi, While working on a Dataload rule file,I was facing this problem. I'm getting date in the format "m(m)/d(d)/yyyy hh:mm:ss". Is there a way to change this to "mm/yy" ?? (There won't be anyproblem if I get mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss style. but unfortunately not.)

You will have to change it on the data source...Where are you importing from?Will you load these dates into an date attribute dimension?

Can you run the file through a "conversion process" prior to loading?We do similiar thing here. We get a feed from Hyperion Enterprise and run it through a home grown conversion utility written in Windows Script before we load into Essbase.It reads in the file line by line and then writes out a new file properly formatted.

Need the ability to export rule file field mappings

Hi. I have a number of rule files that have a large number of field mappings (i.e. the Replace -> With options on the Global Properties tab). I was just wondering if anyone has found a way to export these to excel or similar.
Thanks

"The reason is due to bad print when having a view is shaded" Could you please explain?
What are you planning to resolve? Which format has the printing issue?
What other print options you want to use in addition to the forcetoblack?
Please provide samples and steps to reproduce the problem. Thx

Unable to build dimension thru rule file using export from DRM

Hi All,
I exported a dimension from DRM in parent-child format and trying to load it thru rule-file into essbase. Everytime i load the data..it is throwing error. Iam confused whether the error is due to DRM file or Essbase itself?
Actually i wanted to show the client the syncup between DRM and Essbase, this is kind of POC. I created an ESSbase application and using outline extractor, extracted the individual dimensions and then converted it into DRM import and loaded there successful. After creation of Properties there and added few members under the hierarchy in DRM.Again exported the dimensions and wanted to load into the same Essbase Application which should reflect the member additions did in DRM. But this DRM to essbase thing is not happening.
Pls anybody help me in this.
Regards,
Sahitya

Hi,
Is there anything in the error log file that is generated when you load it in Essbase??
You got to find the reason in the error file and then we can help you out on this.

Is this possible: SQL Dataload with generic rule file?

Hello,
when loading a flat file into Essbase, one can define in the header the data load field names. In the data load, the dimension names are given and at the end the Data. In the rule file under Options > Data source properties > Header a reference to this line could be made. This works fine.
We want to load data with SQL in the same way. One load rule with a substitution variable for the view selection and we can use it for all data loads. We have specified the dimension names in the table column header. The data column was defined as "data" - without quotes.
The result so far is, it will not load.
The question is - does somebody tried this before and can help me on this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

the data column can be repersented in multiple ways, the way I typically do it is to define it to the member it belongs to. In my example where your substitution variable &currmth is "Jan" then "Jan" would be the column name. Next month when the sub var changes to Feb, it is Feb.

Rule files for dataload

Hi All,
I am a newbie to essbase and trying to load data from ODI. I am not very clear with the concept of rule file. Request you to throw some light on the below cases:
Is rule mandatory for loading metadata?
Is rule not required for loading data to the essbase database? In this case, my observation is that i am able to load data using rule file and also by not using rule file. So, in what circumstances the rule file is required?
Note: The sample code by Oracle for loading data to the essbase cube, has interfaces to load metadata using rule file and interfaces to load data without using rule file.
Regards

Hi John,
Thanks for the response.
Another issue is , the interface that loads data to the essbase cube using IKM SQL to HYPERION Essbase (DATA) knowledge module is deleting the rule file after the load. But, I do not see any step in ODI logs that deletes the rule file.On the other hand, we do not see such behavior with IKM SQL to HYPERION Essbase (METADATA) knowledge module.

Essbase server 11.1.2.3.501 server LINUX red hat

Hi John,
it's not quite that
I will provide more detail:
In fact, we are 3 server Essbase : development, acceptance and operational there are a lot the new version of Essbase 11.1.2.3.501.
The maxl treatment are launch since a other server : a treatment server that are a client maxl and ESSCMD in the same version.
Before that, I'm migrate all the application and database from all alder server Essbase to this new architecture Essbase.
All application and DATABASE (in BSO) was migrated by expot-import process, the all object (csc, rul, rep ...) was transfer by copy in each directories of database.
The test after migration are very satisfying.
Now, we are on process of life on the Essbase server 11.1.2.3.501.
The back office of India used the usually process to developed the lot.
They take the source on SVN application (take the rule), deployed the rule on the development server, modify the rule and have this error.
This error not appear after migration with the same rule ...
I am skeptical
Tx to your help on this subject.

Rules File Not Running in EPMA During Consolidation

Greetings -
I am doing a migration from 11.1.1.2 to our Production environment in 11.1.1.3. We are using EPMA, though I wrote and maintain the rules files in the old editor and import them to the calc manager. I have exported and imported the metadata, recreated the applications, imported the rules file, and recreated security. Everything between the two systems seem to match. The rules file imported without issue and can be extracted from the application, I know it is deploying. When I run a consolidation, the rules file seems to be getting skipped somehow. System translation and consolidation (no special rules for those) run fine, but the consolidation immediately starts at 40% and none of my dynamic or calculated accounts are ever populated. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sarah

In Calc Manager, check in the menu bar, look for Deployment View.
Make sure the Sub Calculate is checked and then re-deploy.

UDA Defination in Rule file

 I am trying to create a Rule file to build my Dimensions. TheDimensions get built up properly without any issues as long as I donot have any UDA's defined in it. My dimension build data file is as follows which is ~delimited:2006~Nov-06~28-Nov-2006~D45~Tue~Business~DA38988~AAAAANow in the above file first 3 fields are of the time dimension.D45 is the UDA for 28-Nov-2006 and Tue is the attribute filed of28-Nov-2006 My rule file definition is as followsGen2,Time Gen3,Time Gen4,Time UDA4,Time WeekDays4,Time Gen2,User Gen3,User Alias3,UsersAs you can see I have defined the Rule file using Generationproperties Now when I am trying to build the Dimensions using the abovefile it gives the following error message Object [Test] is already locked by user [XXXXXX] Building Dimensions Elapsed Time : [0.79] seconds There were errors, look inC:\Hyperion\AdminServices\client\dataload.err Reading Parameters For Database [Drxxxxxx] Reading Outline Transactions For Database [Test] Declared Dimension Sizes = [4 5 11 3 2 ] Actual Dimension Sizes = [3 3 11 3 1 ] Allocated TRIGMAXMEMSIZE: [4096] Bytes.

Is it like I cannothave a UDA and an Attribute for one member i.e. in this case28-Nov-2006. ThanksSSSS54

As an added comment to the previous poster, you might want both "Allow Property Changes" and "Allow Association Changes" so that both UDAs and Attributes can be successfully updated. If your Essbase version contains the option, you will also need to check the "Allow UDA Changes" option which only becomes enabled if property changes are first enabled. As for your question regarding Declared vs. Actual dimension sizes: A "Declared Dimension Size" is a count of the total number of members in the dimension. An "Actual Dimension Size" is the same, but less the Dynamic Calc, Shared and Label Only members. The numbers you see are simply a list of the declared or actual sizes of each dimension in order.

Export Business Rules

Hi,
Is there any way to automate of exporting Business Rules??? Right now I am doing that manually. Right click Business Rules... Export. Please suggest.
Regards,
Anil

Hi,
It is stored in binary format so it is not just as simple as querying the table.
If you have a look at this post :- Re: Exporting Hyperion Business Rules as Text files
It has an example of extracting the information

Unable to create rule file

Hi,
I am trying to create a rule file in one essbase cube using the level 0 export (extract in column format) from another cube of a different application. Level0 data file is saved in the local machine from where I am running Essbase. While creating the rule file, trying to open the data file, error message comes like "Invalid blank character in name". Can anyone please let me know what the error can be?
Thanks.

I had a similar issue in the past,
Even if the file is placed on Desktop at times EAS was picking it, but always failed with MaxL may be because of it's syntax and the way it can read the path. Maybe there are other factors as well.
But it's always better to put the file in a path without spaces and it'll work fine always. :)

Rule file for generating XPath for forms problem

Hi, suggestion
"Rule file is invalid or missing. Please recreate it as followings: Navigate to OpenScript menu: View->OpenScript Preferences..->OpenScript->Record->Oracle EBS/Forms
Functional->Object Identification(tab), click 'Apply', then click 'OK'"
does not work, still the same error in Diagnostics tool (OATS Openscript 12.2.0.1) IE 8
Best regards
DC

We would like to move the ruleset data from GRC CC 5.3 to GRC CC 5.2
We dont know if the rule export format has changed from 5.3 to 5.2
So the idea is that we would export the 'function authorization' data from 5.3 CC table, and upload it in the
correct 5.2 format, using Configuration -> Rule upload-> Function Authorization.
Thanks

Column Format - Rule File

Greetings,
I'm doing a level zero column export of data and my goal is to replace '0' with '#Mi'. In the export file, years are represented in columns and data for Yr2013 begins somewhere at row 100. When I try to load the file into data prep editor for creating a rule file, the last column(Yr2013) does not show up and I'm not sure what delimiter to use. Right now, I'm using "All Spaces". I tried with .csv extension and comma delimiter too but same result.
Any inputs here?

Hi ,
In case you want to remove all the unnecessary block which gets created because of '0' value.
you can write one small script which will replace all 0 value with #Mi
like "Version" = "Version" * "Version"/"Version"; (Select your version)
then Clearblock empty;
Note: But take data backup before you play with you data.
hope this will help;

A problem happened when building dimensions with Rule File

Hi All,
I was trying to build dimensions with the rule file. But it showed the error 1030100, which means "cannot open file".
I can load data with a data source (.txt). Thus, I assumed that it's a problem to open a rule file.
I don't think it's the problem about the rule files I wrote since I cannot even build dimensions with rule files in the Sample/Basic database.
Anyone knows how to solve the problem? Thanks for the help.
Best Regards,
Anderson

p.s. Even I re-install my system is English, the word "Client" is shown in Chinese. Is it possible this is the reason? If so, how I change the folder?
After I saw this message, I checked the folder and there is no such file. I tried to created one, but it disappear after I tried to build dimensions.

E:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\eas\Client\dataload.err
This path is referred to error message .... it will show the errors in that file...
and one more thing...
while adding data source to rule file it will ask you provide a path for the error message...there you can see this path...
Just check dataload.err file after running the rule file...
have you associated the out line to the rule file ???
is that rule file validate fine?
if not associate it and try...
