Financial Reporting - HFM and Parent/Child formatting

I have a report that has many rows, each with the same logic: Children of Account(Inclusive).
I would like to have the parent formatted differently than the children (ie lines to show that it is a subtotal). Is this possible?
I can remove the inclusive part and then add an Auto Calculation Total to each row and then hardcode the Auto Calculation Heading, but am looking for a more dynamic approach.

I use 2 rows to accomplish this.
Children[Account] - this is not inclusive
Sum([1])
I use a Custom Heading for the summary row. This method allows you to put the sub total at the bottom and format as needed.

The column PARENT refers to DETAIL_ID.
and I've NUMTABLE of type INTEGER. (create or replace TYPE NUMTABLE AS TABLE OF INTEGER;)
I'd like to write a function which takes detail_id's as input and returns the correct order of the input. (parent-child format)
for example
order_req_det (detId_in NUMTABLE) return NUMTABLE;
order_req_det (219, 284, 285, 286, 282, 283, 281, 362, 334, 361)
should return the below output.

Converting numeric level identifier into Parent/Child format to load.

I am unable to receive meta data in parent child format from a ERP source system and need to load these into Planning through ODI. Each member is identified with a numeric level indicator. Is there any wasy to convert this into Parent/Child format using the level indicator?
Thank you.

If you are using oracle you could look into using the "Connect by prior" function.

Extract the hierarchy in Parent child format from HP

Hello,
I have a hierarchy within Accounts dimension which I need to move to the other application in the different environment. I donot want to move the whole dimension. I just need to move a hierarchy. Is there a way I can extract a hierarchy in Parent child format with properties and move the same in to the next one.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
XXX

Hi,
Below code assumes that you have 2 alias tables and assymetric hierarchy (having 4 to 6 levels) in accounts and all level 0 accounts are 6 digits. If you wish to remove the second alias table from the code simply remove references to it (i.e. aliastbl_id=50030). You can customize the extract top level member by modifying this section: (select object_id from hsp_object where object_name='Total Expenditure')
This outputs the structure in a fixed columnar format having all levels in different columns.
Code:
select o1.object_name as LVL1, o1.object_name as LVL1_DESC_EN, al1.object_name as LVL1_DESC_AR,
o2.object_name as LVL2, o2.object_name as LVL2_DESC_EN, al2.object_name as LVL2_DESC_AR,
o3.object_name as LVL3, al3.object_name as LVL3_DESC_EN, alar3.object_name as LVL3_DESC_AR,
o4.object_name as LVL4, al4.object_name as LVL4_DESC_EN, alar4.object_name as LVL4_DESC_AR,

Question about File Content Conversion and parent-child relationships...

Hello!
 I have read probably every blog, article and SAP Help document on the topic, but I am stuck on this one. I am trying to convert a General Ledger flat file to an IDoc using the classic file --> IDoc scenario. The setup is done and working, but the IDocs are formatted incorrectly and I believe at least part of the reason is how I am converting the file content.
The root of my problem is that the flat file has a parent-child relationship between the document header and the document item and I want to maintain that since the IDoc type (FIDCCP01) has the same structure in the BKPF and BSEG segments.
Here is the flat (non-XML) file layout that is coming into the file adapter:
FileHeader
DocumentHeader
DocumentItem
DocumentHeader
DocumentItem
and so on (until the number of documents is complete
I would really like the content to be converted so that the line items stay under their parent document headers like this:
<FileHeader></FileHeader>
<DocumentHeader>
 <ItemHeader>
 </ItemHeader>
</DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader>
 <ItemHeader>
</ItemHeader>
</DocumentHeader>
But I keep getting this, where it lists the document headers first (one after another), and then all of the line items after the document headers like this:
<FileHeader></FileHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<ItemHeader></ItemHeader>
Is is possible to maintain that parent-child relationship from the flat file and pass it over to the XML?
Thanks,
John

Hyperion Web Analysis vs Financial Reports Pros and Cons

Hi All,
Can you pls. let me know what are the major differences between Hyperion Financial Reports and Hyperion Web Analysis ? For Planning application we generally use Financial Reports right ? Can't we use Hyperion Web Analysis ? What are the advantages & disadvantages of both FR & Web Analysis tools
My Customer is asking the Merits and De merits of using both FR & Web Analysis tools for Hyperion Planning. Pls. help
Thanks,
PVR

Hi John,
I'm using FR extensively now and used Web Analysis before. We use FR for Good formatted Reports, where as Web Analysis we use for adhoc Reporting Purpose. users can do slicing/dicing, Drill down/up in Web Analysis Reports, where as this feature is not available completely in FR
We use FR for Planning right ? What is the main advantage of using FR over Planning ? I belive with Web Analysis over Planning may cause performance issues
Thanks,
PVR

Graphs and parent-child with loops and duplicates

There is a parent-child relation in the table t(prnt, chld) which allows duplicates (A->B, A->B) and opposite paths (A->B, B->A), and complicated loops. Is there a way to identify rows that form any separate "connections network" and assign a "name" to them of any kind (letter, number, wahtever)? I try to use WITH recursive clause to identify and group rows belonging to one graph but with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
thank you

Frank, I posted inputs for all graphs (multiple inserts) and some allowable outputs for one graph. For all cases (ie. graphs) the rule is the same:
1. identify all nodes belonging to a graph
2. "name" that graph (min, max or whatever you like)
3. print the output in the form (node_belonging_to_a_graph, name_of_the_graph) for all identified graphs
And as you said, I am somewhat flexible. I don't want to constrain the problem with saying min, max because it's not important how you name it, but the way which is somehow natural and fits with requirements is the usage of nodes' values.
You ask me if (1,1),(2,1),(3,1) is also OK as an output for sample graph (1,2)+(2,3). Yes it is. It is one of those I posted but with additional node which is chosen as a name for a graph. But as you can guess it doesn't matter which node you choose, and the additional information about a node named with its own name is not as important and the information that all other nodes are named with that name but it is 100% acceptable. If you changed the naming convention and started to use letters instead of node values then yes, it would be a must to have the output in the form (1,a),(2,a),(3,a).
You also ask me about the result for 90x data inserted as 5 rows: (901,902)..(906,904) and present sample result:
901 902
905 902
906 902
And the answer is no, it is not good result. It misses the information about the nodes 904 and 903 which belong to this graph too. The correct result could be:
901 902
905 902
906 902
903 902
904 902
or any other "combination" which presents 5 nodes with the name of the sixth (in this case of 6-node graph). Just one have to be picked, it doesn't matter which one. The "vertical" order is also irrelevant.
As you can see there is a lot of room that gives acceptable result. I don't want to constraint it because it can influence performance which is important when dealing with graph structures in relational databases (RDBMS are not predestined to easily cope with that sort of information). It can also influence the chosen algorithm and I'd like to pick the fastest one which gives acceptable result.
Two numbers x and y are in the same group (graph) if (and only if) at least one of the following is true:
(1) they appear on the same row together (it doesn't matter which number is in which of the 2 columns), or
--(2) x appears on the same row with a third number, z, and z is in the same group as y--
(2) there are other edges (entries) in the table that form a "path" from x to y. And because the direction of the path is not important for the problem (ie. the parent-child table structure can be forgotten for a moment), the path means "there exists connection" between x and y aka "you can walk from x to y".
The output consists of 2 columns: id (which is unique in the result set) and grp (which identifies the group) *[correct]*
The id column will always be one of the numbers in the group *[correct]*
It doesn't matter what the grp column is, or even what data type, as long as it distinguishes between the different groups. *[correct, but as you noted using one, picked number from a graph is the prefferable way]*
If there are N distinct numbers in the group, I need N rows of output for that group, with id showing all those distinct numbers. *[correct, but if you choose your naming convention as naming a graph with the value of the node belonging to it you can ommit the node which is named for itself (but it doesn't hurt is such row appear in the result)]*
You ask me if the graph is directed. No it's not. Your example (x,y) and (y,x) is great, and it can be concluded from my first post when I say that "opposite paths" (A->B, B->A) exists. What matters is the connection between the nodes. The parent-child table somehow imposes that direction is important, but for this problem it is not.
One of the motivations for my post is to know what other people think without affecting their minds with my approach. I don't want to skew anybody's mind into my solution which works, but it's not effective. I don't mind showing it but I kindly ask you to think about the problem before I post it. Diversity of approaches helps to distill the best one.
As I said I did it with the usage of sys_connect_by_path. If it doesn't appear to you as possible usage then it is likely that I don't use it efficiently. Please understand, I will post it if you ask me one more time but if you can live for a while without my inefficient solution and suggest something with WITH clause I would appreciate it.
There is no exact result I expect. There are many results which are correct and acceptable. They all must follow the rules described at the beginning.
Thank you

POV in Hyperion Financial Reporting Studio and Workspace

Hi!
I have the following problem.
I create a report in Hyperion FinReporting Studio, choose required members in POV. Save report.
Then I open it in Workspace and sometimes my chosen POV crushed: sometimes there are no chosen members, sometimes there is a free space.
How can I fix it? (It's not acceptable to choose POV as a prompt all time). Is it a bug?
Thanks.
Natallia

Hi Natallia,
well first there are two type of POV in Hyperion financial reporting.
1. User POV
2. Grid POV
If you are never getting the USER POV in workspace then it may be that "Preview User Point of View" is off.
Just check it under FIle-->Preferences-->Financial Reporting in workspace.
If you want some default selection in your reports all the time, you should use Grid POV instead of USer POV.

Financial Reporting Studio and Windows 7

Anyone running Financial Reporting Studio 9.3.1 or a similar version on Windows 7? When I try to open a report I'm receiving an error: "Error connecting to database connection <database name>.
Thanks

The user (myself) does have access to the database since I can access from an XP and/ or 2003 server machine. I think it's related to Windows 7.

Work Order and parent/child relationship

I have been looking into the vision instance. There is an Asset-Rebuildable relationship, that is Forklif and it's battery. If there is a work order on the forklik "replace battery" can this be done automatically, or is this all manual.
1. When I pick the new battery from stores the S/N of the battery is associated with the forklif (automatic I tested this)
2. When I say "remove the old battery" should't the old battery parent/child relationship between the parent be broken and a child work order "charge" for the battery be logged. I could not reproduce that, but queried that this is what happens in vision. Are all these supposed to be manual?
Regards

From this plan, we can't easily get the parent child relationship like autotrace. Is there a way to get like autotrace?

Report Builder and the Delimited format.

Hi,
I am trying to build a very simple report with Report Builder.
Any kind of output format (HTML, PDF, etc) works fine EXCEPT the delimited one.
Each time i am trying to have this report in delimited format, i received an error message and these lines are added in the sqlnet.log:
Fatal NI connect error 12203, connecting to:
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=BEQ)(PROGRAM=oracle80)(ARGV0=oracle80ORCL)(ARGS='(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))')))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=ORCL)(CID=(PROGRAM=C:\des_817\bin\RWBLD60.EXE)(HOST=NCA7219484F)(USER=helene.guerette))))

The same report in another output format runs without problem.
Can somebody help please?

Use the parameter DELIMITER=',' .
I think it works

Hyperion Financial Reports Image and Fit to Page

We import Saved Objects into a grid for a standard header and footer on our reports. Both the header and footer run across the entire landscape page. This works perfecting when the report is small in width. However, when we use the "fit to page" functionality to fit the report on one page, it also reduces the size of the object so that it doesn't span the page. It literally takes hours to get everything lined up perfectly so that it spans the page and still looks "okay". Has anyone else experienced this and has a good solution/work around. I litterlly want to PULL MY HAIR OUT whenever a formatting change comes in for one of these reports as I know it will take FOREVER.

Hi
Do you import them into a grid or do you import them in to the header and footer section?
Also have you tried importing them as a saved 'Image' object?
I think I've experienced similar at a client where we had highly formatted reports with a text box as the header and an image as the footer. Fortunately for us we had limited rows/columns on each report and it was accepted that some reports would span multiple pages so that the shrink to fit never actually affected the size too much.
Apart from trying the other object types if you haven't already, I'm afraid there is little you can do to ease your pain within FR. Could you do anything with the image, create ones of various sizes and test how they 'shrink', see whether you can sort it from that angle?
Hope this helps
Stuart

Problems about financial reporting studio and planning

Hi,all:
Here are two problems:
1. after i have installed the fr client in my pc,when i connect to the server,it promot an error infomation as follow:
; nested exception is:
java.lang.NullPointerException
and i can't open the fr interface and view the fr report
2. When i create a new rule under business rules folder in Essbase Administration Servers,i select the outlin,but only the Essbase applications i can choose in the "avilable server",there is no Planning applications.
Hope someone can give me a hand.
Thanks very much.

What's the version of Hyperion that you are using?
For the first issue, if this is working in somebody else's pc, I would be suspected by your pc's security/java settings.
For the second issue you mentioned below is possible answers:
1. You can't write business rules against EPMA apps in AAS. Use calcmanager instead.
2. Login to planning with your user name, launch a form, go back to AAS and try again.
3. Make sure you've got access to write rules in AAS.
Cheers,
Alp
