Financial Reporting: Current Month vs Prior Month Variance for all Entities

Silly/Easy Question:
How can I set up a grid in Hyperion Financial Reporting to show these columns for all entities- Current Month NIBT, Prior Month NIBT, Variance
So, the report would look like:
Florida Current Month, Florida Prior Month, Florida Variance...Georgia Current Month, Georgia Prior Month, Georgia Variance...Ohio Current Month, Ohio Prior Month, Ohio Variance
All I can get it to do at present is:
Florida Current Month, Georgia Current Month, Ohio Current Month, Florida Prior Month, Georgia Prior Month, Ohio Prior Month, etc.
Thanks!
Note: we have many entities, so hard coding them in the report is out.

Update: been working with Oracle dev on this. Seems FRS cannot produce a report such as this:
----------Entity-----------------------------------------Entity-----------------------------------------Entity
----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance
Account
Account
Account
Account
Account
The data can be extracted in other layouts, but this is one we'd like to utilize for Balance Sheet Variance analysis and Tax ETR reports.

  • Financial Reporting - Current Period Variable

    Anybody know a quick way to get the Current Period Number (eg June = 6 ) for use in a formula? Thanks.

    You'll need to restart FR studio, after you have created the substitution variables. As the studio only performs one read of the sub var database on startup.
    It also won't show up unless you assign a member to it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Financial reporting 11 1 2 2 Access issue for a user

    Hi All,
    I have a report designer group for Financial reporting 11.1.2.2. I have created a group called FR_GROUP in HSS and provide them the report designer access and added three MSAD users.
    Now as admin we have a created a folder in workspace called FR and gave the group FR_GROUP Full acces to this folder FR.
    Now the issue is the MSAD user who created the repot in FR folder can see the reports and open them and also the admin user but the other two MSAD users cant see the reports.
    Any ideas how to fix this access issue?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Try provisioning the FR_GROUP with Explorer role. Just in case here is the whole list of Reporting and Analysis Roles:

  • Task List URL (to FR Report) opens in new window, but not for all users!

    Hi all,
    I am not sure if this is the correct forum to ask the question (for me it looks like an IE topic), but perhaps anybody can help me anyway...
    In one of our Planning apps (9.3.1) we defined several task lists and tasks that link to relevant FR Reports (URL Tasks). If I open the URL task in basic view the relevant FR Report opens in the same IE Window (in the main frame of the planning app). If my colleague opens the same task the FR Reports opens in a new IE Window.
    My problem is that I dont have any ideas where I can set the relevant property. Is that a planning property, a workspace property or an IE property setting??? Where can I adjust the settings that for ALL users the URL opens the Report in the same window??????
    Thanks in advance!!!!
    Kind Regards
    André
    P.S.: We are on IE8.

    Have you both got the same settings in Tools > Internet Options > Tabs Settings
    There was also a bug though I can't say if it is related to your issue
    9549216 - Instead of a new tab, a new window is displayed after you create a Financial Reporting task in Workspace.

  • Month, QTD, YTD in prompts - Financial Reporting Studio

    Hi All,
    We developed a report (source: Essbase) using Financial Reporting Studio. We used a prompt for Period Dimension and used all the months in the choices list. We have a new requirement to pull QTD and YTD of the months to the prompt list.
    We have used QTD and YTD from the functions list but while running the report from workspace, it is showing in the user selection list as Month instead of QTD of month or YTD of month (QTD of Feb/YTD of Feb).
    Please suggest if someone worked on the similar case.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ravi

    We have created a Y2D member for our Time Period dimension that may fit your needs:
    IF (@ISACCTYPE(FIRST)) JAN; ELSEIF (@ISACCTYPE(LAST)) &CurrMth; ELSE @SUM(JAN:&CurrMth); ENDIF
    We also have a Q2D member: IF (@ISACCTYPE(FIRST)) &Qtr_St_Mth; ELSEIF (@ISACCTYPE(LAST)) &CurrMth; ELSE @SUM(&Qtr_St_Mth:&CurrMth); ENDIF

  • Sum prior month KF1 + KF2

    Hello,
    I am stuck in what seemed like a simple calculation...
    I have two key figures in my rows, and need to display fiscal year/month in the columns (requirements are for monthly totals across a rolling 24 months).
    As part of a bigger calculation, I need to add the following KFs and display the result in each of the 24 monthly column.
    prior month KF1 + KF2
    For example:
    Feb    = Jan KF1 + Feb KF2
    March = Feb KF1 + March KF2
    April    = March KF1 + April KF2
    ...etc.
    I have tried using RKFs and offset variables, but this just changes the months that are displayed in the columns.  Basically, I need for the value of KF1 for month X to "exist" in the following month's column.
    Help!

    Hi,
    I can see that you have a solution, but is it really working without a structure?
    I mean do you have your 2 KFs in the rows and then your CALMONTH in the drilldown accross the columns and then see
    KF1 = value for the month
    and KF2 = value for the previous month?
    please let me know because that would be new to me

    This means that workspace cannot connect to financial reporting through your web server.
    Check that Financial reporting web service is up.
    Direct to the JVM
    http://svr:8200/hr (svr is where your financial reporting web service is installed)
    Through the web server:
    http://ohssvr:19000/hr
    If the first link does not work check the logs to your financial reporting web service (user_projects\domains search *.log for Financial Reporting)
    If the second does not come up, maybe reconfigure your web server using the Oracle Config tool.
    Also, make sure you are coming into workspace using port 19000 (through the web and not through the jvm port 45000)

  • Financial Report Installation?

    I need to install the Financial Report on a client desktop. As we know, there are 5 components: Financial Report Sheduler Service,Financial Report print server service, Financial Report report server service, Financial Report web application, Financial Report studio client. I think: 1) I should install all of the 4 components on the web server 2) I only need to install the Financial Report Studio Client on the locally desktop for the client. 3). Set up connection from local Financial Report Studio to the server.
    Please correct me, thanks!

    Hi,
    You can also install the client on the server as well, this helps if you need to remote to the server for any reason and have to use the client.
    You only need the client install on a a desktop client machine.
    When everything is configured to set up planning/essbase connections from in the studio, if you want to manage connections you can do it from workspace.

  • SSRS Matrix report. Variance expression by Month. Need to compare month from prior year to current month of current year VS2010

    Please help.  I have a matrix report.  In the report I have row group  PO Type.  One the Column groups I have a parent group by Fiscal Year, and then a child group by Month.  When I run the report, I get two years of data back broken
    out by month.  Please see below.
    Now here is where I am getting stuck.  I need to take the variance between the current month of the current year, from the same month of the prior year.  So I need to show the difference between Oct , 2014 from Oct, 2013. November, 2014 from November
    2013... etc. etc.
    In the example below, how do I create a column or row showing the variance for Contracts for October 2014.  I need to take the contracts for October 2014 which is 3 and subtract that from October 2013 which is 8.  Any suggestions? How do I do that
    for each month?  Then I need to do it for the quarter... then the year?  But I'll be happy if I can just get the month working first.
    Any help will be appreciated. 
    here is what my rdl file looks like.
    Here is what my report looks like when I render it.

    Hi Adrian_s2012,
    According to your description, you want to compare values for the month of current year with the month of prior year and get the variance. Right?
    In Reporting Services, we don't have any function to get this "Year to Year" Growth. In this scenario, if you data source is a cube, we suggest you use Analysis Services to achieve your requirement. If this data source is just from database, it will be hardly
    to calculate the variance because we need to compare the values within every two different column group and matrix generate adjacent columns one by one. Even we make it by using custom, every time executing the long code when generating result
    in a cell will reduce a lot of performance, we really don't suggest to do that in SSRS. Here is a thread with much easier requirement, please take a reference of that:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/842e2dcb-d949-4297-9d91-eac989692cb5/difference-between-the-grouped-column?forum=sqlreportingservices

  • Want to schedule WebI report for End date of Prior Month

    Hello Experts,
    We have WebI report created on top of Bex Query, We have key date as prompt for the report. Can we schedule the webi report for key date as last date of prior month, so if current month is February, my key date should be Jan 30 2011. I am not sure if this is possible?
    Thanks,
    Ravi

    You need to apply two FM to get the end day of the month.
    First you need to apply FM MONTHS_PLUS_DETERMINE. This will give you the date after 3 months.
                CALL FUNCTION 'MONTH_PLUS_DETERMINE'
                  EXPORTING
                    MONTHS        = 3   " << for 3 months
                    OLDDATE       = l_start_Date   " << 12/01/2007
                 IMPORTING
                   NEWDATE       = l_3_Date. " << 02/01/2008
    Then call the FM RP_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS . this will give you the end date of the month
      CALL FUNCTION 'RP_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS'
        EXPORTING
          day_in            = l_3_Date  " << 02/01/2008
        IMPORTING
          last_day_of_month = l_3_Date  " < 02/29/2008
        EXCEPTIONS
          day_in_no_date    = 1
          OTHERS            = 2.
    Call both FMs again to get your another date(after 4 months).

    Hello All,
    I got this resolved using the below formula to get either prior 3 months or the next 3 months from current date:
    3rd month from current date:
    =LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(CurrentDate()); 1));1));1))
    Prior 3rd month from current date:
    =ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(CurrentDate();"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy")
    and used these objects to restrict my date field(date object between "Prior 3rd month from current date:" and
    "Prior 3rd month from current date:"

  • SSRS Variance expression problem. Create a Variance expression. Compare current month with same month from previous year.

    Hello,
    I am using VS2010 shell.  I have a matrix report where I have a row group by Year.  Then I have a column group by Month. 
    When I run the report, I get 2013 data on top of 2014 data.  Now I need to create a variance by year for each month.
    So in the example below, I need to create an expression that will pull the variance for Oct 01... subtracting 2013 from 2014 for the months.  So I need to Subtract 8,222 - 4290.  I have no clue.
    Here is what my rdl looks like.
    Thank you for your help. 

    Hi Adrian,
    If I understand correctly, you want to calculate the difference order between 2013 and 2014 for every month. And there are only two years in the FISCAL_YEAR field.
    If in this scenario, we can simply use the following expression to achieve your requirement:
    =first(Fields!ORDER.Value)-last(Fields!ORDER.Value)
    The following screenshot is for your reference:
    If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
