OBIEE vs Hyperion(essbase,planning, IR, WA, FR)

All,
if a client wants to implement Business Intelligence/OLAP what would you suggest Hyperion (ESSBASE, IR, WA, FR, ) or OBIEE ?As a Architect standspoint.
As a Business User or Business Owner, which is best for me ESSBASE/etc or OBIEE ?
Job scope, which is best ?

I dont think it is a simple either / or. My view is that Performance Management(Hyperion) and Business Intelligence(Siebel/OBIEE) sit side by side. people are using Hyperion and OBIEE together. In the 11g release the product stacks will be much more integrated as one suite (Siebel, Hyperion, and Golden Gate).

Essbase & Planning Bootcamp

All -
I'm looking for Hyperion Essbase & planning bootcamp online so that I could download it. I've Essbase & planning dbag but I really need Bootcamp for myself. Can you please let me know if I can get the bootcamps online?
Thank you very much in advance!

It has less to do with a knowledge of Excel than a knowledge of financial principals and Essbase. One could learn the basics of planning in a class (like bootcamp) and be able to create dimensions, forms, business rules, security, etc but there are people who have spent careers learning the intracacies. To get started, I suggest taking a class, then finding someone you can work with to teach you the design side and detail.A class can only teach so much.

Unable to Obtain a Connection to Hyperion Essbase from Planning Application

Dear All,
I have installed FDM+Foundation+HFM+Essbase+Planning 11.1.1.3 (Tomcat)
I have stacked with the following problem:
when I try to open my data form, I am getting
“Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator”
Validate Database Connection & Validate Essbase Connection are successful throw Manage Data Source menu
Essbase user has admin privileges
In EAS console I can make myself sure, that my application is running
Data Form is valid (verified in Preview screen in Data Form wizard)
Can somebody help me with it?
Best Regards,
Siarhei

Thanks, John
Summary
Symptoms
When attempting to connect to Hyperion Planning as the admin user, the following error occurs:
Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If the problem persists, please contact your administrator'
Cause
Hyperion Planning web accesses the application by making a connection to the Planning metadata in the relational repository (via Relational repository settings) and also to Essbase via the datasource settings.
Any Essbase connection issues indicate problems with the Essbase settings in the datasource or are related to the Essbase server.
Solution
- Edit the datasource via the Configuration Utility.
- Test the Essbase connection and make sure that the user used to make the connection is valid and has admin rights to Essbase.
- Restart the Hyperion Planning service once the Essbase user has been given the correct access rights.
- Login to the Essbase Administration Services (EAS) console and right click on the Essbase server name node -> Refresh security from Shared Services
- Expand the applications node (under the Essbase server name node) and check that there is an application with exactly the same name as the Planning application.
Note: Go to section 'manually recreating a Planning application in Hyperion Essbase, if the Planning application is missing in the above step.
- Login to the application in Hyperion Planning web.
Manually recreating a Planning application in Essbase:
- Login to the EAS console as admin (the Essbase user used by admin must have Essbase administrator rights)
- Go to Essbase servers -> your Essbase server name -> right click on applications -> Create application -> Using Block Storage and enter the exact Hyperion Planning Application name then click on ok.
Note: The above step will only create the application shell without the databases.
- Login to the application in Hyperion Planning web as admin and go to Administration menu -> Manage Database -> select database and filters (to create filter access to Essbase) and Refresh (refresh will also recreate the databases if they don't exist)
Best Regards,
Siarhei

Reverse engineer error with Hyperion Essbase and Planning

We are getting the following error in ODI Operator (3rd step) when trying to reverse-engineer Hyperion Essbase and Planning models. com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot invoke a rollback operation when the AutoCommit mode is set to "true".
Our ODI repository resides in SQL Server.. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Dmitriy,
You should upgrade to the latest patch of ODI available on metalink.oracle.com 10.1.3.4.4.
There was an issue in 10.1.3.4 ODI with the intial reverse when using SQL server. If you shutdown all the ODI UI's and then restart. And then reverse it should work correctly. But you have to make sure you shut down all ODI tools.
Thanks,
Denis

Hello Brian Delaney,
It sounds like you are trying to send emails but for some reason, thousands show activity. I would start by re indexing the mailbox to help troubleshoot the issue:
1.Quit Mail if it’s open.
2.In ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData, delete any file that begins with “Envelope Index,” such as Envelope Index or Envelope Index-shm.To show your home Library folder, hold down the Option key, then in the Finder choose Go > Library.
3.Open Mail.Mail creates new Envelope Index files. This process may take a few minutes, depending on how many messages Mail is reindexing.
Mail (Mavericks): Reindex messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14876
If the issue persists, I would next remove the account, restart the computer, and re add the account:
1.Choose Mail > Preferences, then click Accounts.
2.Select an account, then click Remove.
Mail (Mavericks): Remove mail accounts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14944
Removing an Exchange or IMAP account doesn’t permanently delete the account’s mailboxes and messages because they’re stored on the mail server. To retrieve the account’s mailboxes and messages from the server, add the account again in Mail.
To add the account again, click the rather than the as described above and retest the issue.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Joe

What is major difference between hyperion planning and hyperion essbase

hi
what is the differences between hyperion planning and hyperion essbase.i dont know about planning much.but as far i know.i think we can do every thing in essbase also(planning,budgeting and forecasting)
what u say.what we actually do in planning.
regards
bharat

Hi Bharat
Although as you mention in your post Essbase can do plans/budgets etc it may not be simple to provide complex planning process control and ease of data entry etc.
Planning delivers these benefits and some through web delivered components such as forms, business rules and workflow for instance. There are some restrictions to using planning and these need tobe well understood before embarking on a project.
It would be worth having a look at product sheets from Oracle and/or presentations from various events to get a feel for planning capabilities.
Hope this helps.

OBISE One on a Hyperion Essbase and Planning environment

Since it seems a bit quiet over on the OBISE forum, I decided to give the trusted OBIEE forum a go.
I've been working with OBIEE for a number of years. I was asked today if one can use OBISE One 11g on an Essbase or Planning environment and what limitations there are. I've worked with OBIEE on Essbase and Planning, but I've never used OBISE One before.
Has anyone here tried it out on Essbase or Planning? Are there any issues I should know about? Despite the obvious missing components and reduced pricing, any advantages/disadvantages of using OBISE One over OBIEE?
Thanks

Hyperion Workforce Planning - Rules migrated in LCM not showing in Calc Mgr

1-Having trouble with workforce rules (as well as capex and rulesets) that are not showing up in calc manager (in system view) in our QA environment after I migrate them from Dev. New rules were created by a consultant we had in dev and on migrating them forward (along with the new forms), they are not appearing in Calc Manager (in system view). However, I am able to select them when editing forms as part of the loading/save configuration in execution of forms. Anyone have any input on why this might be happening and how we can go about getting these to show up in Calc manager?
I have checked to ensure that they were deployed in Dev in case that rolls forward. Another odd item I'm noticing is while Calc Manager will reflect the most recent revised date in Dev of rules I've updated, it is reflecting an older date to that of when it was last edited/created by the consultant we had. I am beginning to think this is the root cause of the problems as Shared Services not getting updated properly to perform the migration.
2-Also, I've come across a problem where I had an old version of a rule in QA that did not want to accept the new version I was copying forward from Dev. The system has indicated to other admins that I have it locked (presumably after the LCM) while I am not accessing it (and it gives me no such indication). When looking in calc manager, QA had the old version revision and last modified info, while Dev had revised info (and the LCM file as well). Have tried restarting Planning services to unlock it, but to no avail. Any input on how to unlock a rule that you are not currently in (my first assumption is something similar to unlocking locked objects out of EAS, but nothing there to work with).
In attempt to bypass this problem, I tried deleting the old rule out of QA and copying back in the revised version from Dev. This removed it from calc manager, but the form appears to still be using the old rule (I've tried removing the reference and then reapplying it with no positive results). To solve my short term problem, I've created a copy of the rule under a different name and copied it forward, but any tips would be great in case I come across this problem in the future (and so I might be able to remove this locked rule that serves no purpose).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, I may need to go with a ticket to Oracle, but hoping these are common issues that someone else has come across.
FYI - Currently on 11.1.2.1.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Thanks for the tip.
I have tried a direct import/export in Calc Manager and have been able to move rules successfully. However, we have built a lot of our rules using the Rule Designer and on direct import, I seem to lose the layout and the script merges into one. As a short terms means to fix this, I've done the good old fashion copy and paste to create the new rules in QA.
In Shared Services, we are using the Define Migration function to extract what I need from Dev and then manually copying the files over to our QA server to import via the same in Shared Services (\\servername\c$\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem_qa\import_export\username@MSAD). I know that's a bit vague, but am I missing anything there?
I apologize if my queries are not clear. This is all new for us as we are in the process of transitioning from a internally developed relational/essbase planning application to Hyperion Planning while we also recently transitioned from using essbase 7.1.6 to 11.1.2.1 (clean install so no migration issues).
Thanks again for the information.

Q1) what is the basic difference between
“Performance Management “software like “Hyperion System-9” and
“Business Intelligence” software like “Oracle BI Applications”
Q2) what is “Hyperion – Essbase”, is this a standalone product or it installed over “Hyperion System-9”
Q3) what is the difference between “Hyperion System-9” and “Hyperion Enterprize”
Q4) when I was reading the documentation of “oracle business intelligence application (installation and configuration guide)”, there is at page # 2-1
“Before you can install “Oracle Business Intelligence Application”, you must install an “Oracle Business Intelligence Infrastructure”.
     What is meant by this, what is “Oracle BI Infrastructure”?
          Does it mean that we have to install “Oracle Business Intelligence” product, before “Oracle BI Application”
          If yes,
               Which Version of BI we have to install
                    Oracle BI Enterprise Edition
                    Oracle BI Standard Edition One
                    Oracle BI Standard Edition
               Or we are free to choose any of above three (3) products
Q5) Is “hyperion System-9” has itself a “Dashbaord” (like Oracle BI) capabilities or we have to install “Oracle BI” software for that purpose?
Q6) if we choose “Hyperion System-9” then what components of “Hyperion System-9” are helpful for us,
Our installed products are “Oracle Financial”, “Procure to Pay”, “Order to Cash” and “Human Resource”
