Financial Reporting Annotations in Version 11

I'm using the new Annotation feature with version 11. I'm able to use the Annotation function to view comments that were entered on cells, but can't figure out how to use this function to see Annotations entered at the Grid level.
The function needs a Row and Column identified, but the Grid Annotation is not tied to a Row or Column. The function is shown below, any help in determining how to utilize this function for Grid level Annotations would be appreciated.
Function: <<Annotation“GridName”, Row, Col, Page)>>

I don't think you can get 11.1.1.2 from edelivery anymore, you would probably need to contact Oracle to find out how to get them, the different files needed for FR studio can be found at :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_install/ch02s02s03.html

  • Financial reporting client for version 11.1.1.2

    Hi all,
    A customer of mine would like financial reporting client. I can't find 11.1.1.2 on edelivery. I downloaded the one for 11.1.1.3 and I also have to include the installer for the assembly files to work. This is sure to beef up the file size!
    So
    1) Where on edelivery is the 11.1.1.2 download
    2) What other assembly file for other components do I need to include to get the FR client successfully installed
    Thanks,
    Nathan

  • Cell Text Annotations of Hyperion Planning on Hyperion Financial Reporting

    Hello,
    There is a business requirement to show Cell text entered as annotation on each cells in data form to be reported using Hyperion Financial Reporting.
    Also there is a case of some of the data types being text. Some of the forms also have supporting details.
    Now I want to check how easy or difficult is it to report from Hyperion Planning V11.1.2 for the above mentioned.
    Are there any noticeable performance issues?
    Is it possible to report the cell text annotations , Supporting details & Datatype 'Text' from data form on Financial Report?
    Thanks in advance,
    XX

    I haven't used the text data type, however I have done quite a bit of reporting on supporting detail. All you have to do is use a Hyperion Planning data source instead of an Essbase data source. (and specify on the report to show supporting detail). In general, Hyperion Planning data sources are slightly slower than Essbase data sources. How much slower depends on a lot of factors, but supporting detail can certainly slow things down.
    One key limitation with reports that display this type of data is that it doesn't "roll up" the hierarchies. Your report has to be at the same level (in all dimensions) where the supporting detail was entered. So you can't pick an upper level Entity and show all of the supporting detail for it's descendants unless your report also includes the descendants. I understand why this limitation exists, but I routinely have clients that would like this functionality. (For Example - Show me all of the supporting details for the entire plan.)

  • Query annotations (from financial reporting

    Hi All,
    I want to upload my annotations with my data (retrieved from Essbase), but i cannot find the comment.
    I retrieve data from an Essbase cube (with an import script in FDM).
    No i want to check for annotations for each row and add them in an additional column.
    In the SQL database Workspace i have found the ANNOT_ELEMENTS, ANNOT_ELEMENTS_VALUE and ANNOT_CONTEXTS tables so i can match the cell in Financial reporting to an ANNOTATION_ID.
    But i cannot translate the ANNOTATION ID (like 0000012724ae4e60-0000-735d-0a164ac4) to a valid tekst/ type combination.
    Has anyone a clue how and where annotations are stored and how i can retrieve them in FDM?
    Thanks in advance,
    Marc

    I think annotations are saved as a link related object (or LRO) within the Essbase cube. I would think you need that data you would need to write some java code to find the LRO at those intersections.

  • Difference between Hyperion Financial Reporting version 7.0 and 9.3.1 ?

    Hi All,
    Can you please difine Difference between Hyperion Financial Reporting version 7.0 and 9.3.1 ?

    I migrated from 7.5 to 9.3.1 a couple years back so hopefully this is somewhat helpful.
    From a developer perspective, the report designer itself looks about the same. The most annoying changes for me were that they started migrating functionality AWAY from the client program and to the web. For instance, managing security is a pain as it is done through Workspace and it is a bit clunkly. I also ran into some issues where my old report's security information is not visible in Workspace. It is still 'working', but when you view report properties, it shows nothing for who has assigned security. Also, things like deleting/moving reports and creating folders are done through workspace and not the client program. "Copying" can be done through the client program by using "Save As" functionality.
    There is a migration tool to move your old stuff to 9.3.1. It seemed to work OK; however, the User Interface was a bit screwy. For instance, it said I was 138% complete when it finished. It copied more reports than it showed as existing.... :)
    On the back end, things changed quite a bit. In the older Financial Reports, the report objects existing in a single database table and if you wanted to, you could extract everything from that table. In 9.3.1, part of the information is in Workspace database (i.e. Report names/ID's, security access, hierarchy) and the actual report file itself is stored in a psedo-filesystem under the RM webapp. The names are not user friendly at all and you'll need to XREF from the database to make sense of it. When you finally find the actual report "file", they are compressed/encrypted.
    From an end user perspective, things pretty much work the same way as always.

  • Migrate Financial Reporting reports from version 11.1.1.2 to 11.1.2.1?

    I have recently built a brand new 11.1.2.1 environment. Our current environment is running 11.1.1.2. I have successfully migrated shared services data, and hfm data across to the new environment. I am now trying to move the financial reporting reports. Anybody know the best way to do this? Thanks.

    I did do something wrong : )
    I selected import file instead of import financial reporting documents!
    Now when I import it asks me to create a datasource which I did. It then gives me the following error:
    "Server/Cluster is incorrectly configured. Please reconfigure your Cluster or Server connection.<BR>Server/Cluster is incorrectly configured. Please reconfigure your Cluster or Server connection."
    Now I know the server/cluster is configured properly for I can open the Financial Management application through workspace and through the Financial Management client with no issues whatsoever. So they are registered properly.
    I'll continue to work at it and see if I can figure it out. In the meantime if you have a simple solution, please let me know.
    Additional info:
    I have a distributed environment. Foundation web server is where I run all the web components including Reporting & Analysis web, Financial Rptg web, shared services etc. I have a BIplus services server that is running RA Famework Server, FR Print server and HFM web server etc. I then have 3 essbase servers and one HFM server.
    Thanks,

  • Annotation Footnotes (Financial Reporting)

    Hyperion Reporting Annotation details automatically print as footnotes after each report - Is there a way to turn this feature off?

    hi JFo...i'm also facing the same issue....did you get any solution for this...

  • Enter/View comments using Financial Reporting.

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there a way to have comments written using Financial reporting.
    Example:
    I have created a FR report for budgeting. I would like to have users provision to enter thier comments. the comments could be another grid or another section in the report.
    This is something like annotations in Hyperion Planning. Unfortunately, we don't use Hyperion planning to retrieve annotations to FR.
    Any workarounds or inputs on having commentory is welcome.
    Cheers,
    Satya.

    Hi Satya,
    There is a new feature in v11 that allows you to add annotations / comments to a Financial Reporting report. It seems to be similar to cell text function in essbase but if you are on this version it is worth investigating to see what can be achieved.
    If you are using a version earlier than this, i.e. v9.3.x or below then I am not aware of any way of adding comments directly to Financial Reports although if you use Hyperion Planning it is possible to pull Supporting Detail or Annotations into FR reports. There are a couple of other options available to you:
    1. One of the sample Web Analysis reports does what you are requesting, it has one panel containing a grid report and another panel containing comments that can be added to / amended by users.
    2. You could pull the FR report out into MS Word using SmartView
    Hope this helps

  • Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

    Hi,
    Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
    *"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
    And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
    *"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
    Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

    You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
    1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
    2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
    If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
    3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
    http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
    http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
    Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
    If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.

  • Financial reporting and balance carry forward at Line item level

    Hello
    We are in the process of implementing a new GL and using it to create Balance Sheet and P&L statements in BW.
    We have installed the new datasource for GL line items 0FI_GL_14 and loaded the data to a DSO. Installed the 0FI_GL_10 (totals infosource) as well.
    Also we created a custom infocube on the line items DSO and want to use it to report against a Financial Statement Version. In order to do that we created a
    virtual cube with the FM and added the necessary Financial Statement Item and other key figures in the virtual infocube.
    Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
    Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube? Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
    How do we address the Balance Carry Forward on the Line items cube? Since the balance carry forward is done on totals only, and the cube I created is a detailed cube is it possible to carry forward balances at that level?
    Also can someone let me know what is the best approach to create financial reports and give drill down capability at the document level?
    Thanks in Advance
    Raju Kosuru

    Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports? 
    NO .. Its not.
    Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube? 
    NO
    Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
    Yes.. SAP has delivered C10 for Totals and O14 for line items... No point in creating cube for line items i.e. on top of O14.
    Balance carry forward can be done on  totals only (that is how totals extractor _10 is designed), U can not do that on the Line items. Pls contact functional consultant for clarification
    Best approach is RRI (Jump targets) for _10 report to _14 report to give drill down capability at the document level.

  • Which URL to use to open a financial report from a Task list ?

    Hi,
    I've got a big issue in Hyperion Planning : I do not know which URL to use to open a financial report from a task list.
    If I use the Smartcut (given when you do a right-click on the report, then Properties), a tab is opening (normal behaviour), but another tab is opening under the tab, which is very ugly, and moreover which prevent from using the PDF/HTML display icons !
    Is someone know which URL to use to display correctly a financial report when opening it from a task list ?
    It's an emergency, please help !
    Thanks very much.
    Virgile.
    PS. : we use Internet Explorer 8 and we use 11.1.2.1 Hyperion Planning version
    Edited by: 808808 on Jan 5, 2012 3:41 AM

    Hi,
    OK, thanks, it almost works !!
    I've just a problem. 2 tabs are opening.
    One is opening correctly and displays my report. I can display it in PDF/HTML.
    But another tab is opening with this message : This window can now be closed since the application has been launched in a separate window. Note: Popup blockers may prevent this application from working properly.
    Do you know why this tab is opening ?
    Thanks very much for your help.

  • Financial Reporting in 11.1.2.2 vs 9.3.3

    We are moving from HFM with Financial Reporting 9.3.3 to version 11.1.2.2.  One thing we've noticed is that when we first run a report in 11.1.2.2, it takes about 30 seconds for the report to prompt the user with the Point of View.  After that, subsequent reports take about 5-10 seconds to arrive at the prompt.
    If the user does not run any reports for another couple of hours, the first report will take a while and subsequent reports will be quick.
    In 9.3.3, we did not have this situation.  We did not have this disparity between the first report run and subsequent reports.
    Is there some cache setting or other tweek that we could make ? or is this how it works in 11.1.2.2 and is something we'll have to get used to?
    We are running SQL Server 2008 R2 on 64bit Windows for all server based applications.  The servers have 16 GB.
