Formula in POV row converted to text on refresh

We are upgrading our Essbase and Smart View set up to the latest versions (11.1.2.2 and 11.1.2.5 respectively). Currently our reports use the old grid format, so I am converting them to the new format, including having the POV on the sheet itself.
One of the dimensions on the POV row is set by referring to a cell on the front page of the report, so that all of the sheets can have their POV changed from one place - i.e. =Cover!$A$1. This works on many of the sheets, but on some when the sheet is refreshed the formula is replaced by the current value of Cover!$A$1, so the dynamic link is lost.
I can't see any difference between the sheets where this is and isn't a problem, the options look the same - Preserve Formulas and Comments in ad hoc operations is selected, Preserve formula on POV change is disabled and greyed out but that doesn't seem to matter on the sheets where it's working fine.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
James

What is the Smart View version?
I had the same issue, however we are using macros for retrieval, so I've the luxury to update the POV when I run it.
I don't see that in 11.1.2.3 Smart View release

  • SSRS report - A single selection dropdown list converted to text box

    Hello everyone,
    We created a single selection dropdown parameter (City parameter) on a report. The data in this parameter is populated using MDX query. Also, it is filtered based on selection of another single selection dropdown list (Country parameter) of a report.
    The problem is when there is no cities for the selected country the dropdown list is gets converted to free type text box and user can insert city data in it. Why SSRS is not keeping it as empty dropdown list with no data?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello Charlie,
    We developed a fresh report only with two parameters but still the dropdown control gets converted to text box in our case. We have two single selection parameters, Location and Customers. Based on selected Location the customer
    dropdown gets populated.
    Location Parameter Query
    WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER
    [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
    SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , [Location].[Location Name].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM [Model]
    Customer Query
    WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS
    [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION
    MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS
    [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
    MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
    SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel],[Measures].[Amt]} ON COLUMNS,
    nonempty([Customer].[Customer Name].ALLMEMBERS,[Measures].[Amt]) ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@LocationName, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Model])
    Regarding parameter settings on General tab for both the above parameters we did not select any of the following values, all these checkboxes are empty:
    Allow Blank Value ("") , Allow null value, Allow multiple values.
    I think it has something related to [Measures].[Amt] that we used in customer parameter. We are now trying to take other two parameters where we would be not using the [Measures].[Amt] to filter the data. Will update you soon.

  • Converting a text file into a String

    I need to convert a text file (in whatever format, in my case it would be xml and xsl files) in a String.
    I made this methods:
    public static String createStringFromFile(File f) {
            StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
            try {
                FileInputStream fInp = new FileInputStream(f);
                byte[] byteArray = new byte[fInp.available()];
                int bLetti = fInp.read(byteArray);  
                if (bLetti == fInp.available()) {
                    for (int i=0; i<fInp.available(); i++)
                        buf.append(Byte.toString(byteArray));
    else
    throw (new IOException("Errore nella lettura del file"));
    fInp.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    ErrorManager.getError(e);
    return (buf.toString());
    public static String createStringFromFile(String fileName) {
    StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
    try {
    FileInputStream fInp = new FileInputStream(fileName);
    byte[] byteArray = new byte[fInp.available()];
    int bLetti = fInp.read(byteArray);
    if (bLetti == fInp.available()) {
    for (int i=0; i<fInp.available(); i++)
    buf.append(Byte.toString(byteArray[i]));
    else
    throw (new IOException("Errore nella lettura del file"));
    fInp.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    ErrorManager.getError(e);
    return (buf.toString());
    There are no compilation or runtime errors, but the result string is empty. Not null, empty. What should I do? :)

    Do you really want to use bytes and so on when java does it all for you?
    Here's how I did it, hope it's useful.
    public String getFileAsString(String fileName){
         StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
         try{
         BufferedReader bRead = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(new File(fileName)));
         String str = "";
         while( (str = bRead.readLine()) != null ){
              buffer.append(str);
         }//end while
         bRead.close();
         }catch(Exception e){
         System.err.println("in getFileAsString(): " + e.toString());
         }//end try
         return buffer.toString();
    }//end getAsString()

    2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
    Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
    Kindly Help.
    Thanks in advance

    We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
    There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
    give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
    controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
    You could look for an application that gives control of font for
    printing.
    You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
    could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
    Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
    size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
    Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
    to this.

  • About converting a text member to a list

    Hi there everyone!
    I'm trying to convert a prepared text member to a property
    list.
    the text cast member:
    [#boxes:[#b0: [#rect: rect(61, 392, 695,
    465)],#b1:[#rect:rect(501,358,688,460)],#b3:[#rect:rect(99,415,199,493)]],#points:[#p0:[# loc:point(677,428)],#p1:[#loc:point(92,397)]]
    the code I tried:
    a = member("walkable").text
    dWalkable = value(a)
    put dWalkable
    but the result is always : <VOID>
    how can I convert the text cast member to a property list?

    The reason you are getting void is because after converting
    it from a
    string, what you have left is not a properly formatted list.
    I think
    you just need to add a closing square bracket at the end and
    then it
    should work.

  • How to convert the text field into currency field

    Hi,
    I have an requirement to converting the text field into currency.
    If I convert directly it gives dump.
    If I convert this to Numeric means it takes the decimals also as whole value.
    Is there any FM to convert the text field into Currency field.
    Please advice me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I am on an SRM sytem, which unfortunately does not have th FM: PSSV_TEXT_INTO_FIELD_CURRENCY.
    But I also need to transfer a string value like '12,99' to a field with type curr.
    Can i Do that manually, or is there another FM?
    I have already checked code with write to or pack/unpack.
    But without success yet.
    Something like this:
    DATA: g_str(11) type c.
    DATA: g_p type p.
    WRITE '12,99' TO g_str CURRENCY 'EUR'.
    is no use for me. Finally I need to move g_str to my curr-field, which causes st22.
    also: PACK g_str to <curr-field or g_p> dumps.
    Help appreciated.

  • How to convert a "text variable" to String with plugin

    Hello,

    Sorry, that doesn't make much sense.
    The XML you gave is a configuration file for txt2xml utility. It doesn't represent the output format.
    Are you a user of this utility?

  • Does Illustrator do a good job of converting PDF text to text entities in DWG?

    My company receives a lot of drawings in PDF format. They look great, but when we're asked to modify these drawings, they have to be redrawn in CAD. This is very time-consuming and costly. I would like to use Illustrator to convert these PDFs to DWG format. I've found products that will convert the linework and other content of the drawing; however, none that I've found can convert the text in the PDF to text entities in the DWG.
    I would install the free trial version if Adobe Illustrator, but I can't. My company is currently using Windows XP operating system. Illustrator requires Windows 7 or 8.

    I don't think you'd be happy with any conversion of text between Illustrator and DWG. Text handling differs greatly in the respective editing environments. I may have missed something, but I've never seen usable text going in either direction, either to or from DWG.

  • Macbook pro numbers applying a formula to all rows

    macbook pro, numbers: applying a formula to all rows...

    Apologies for not replying immediately! I have now managed to organise my entire stock list for my business; I just had a major brain blockage as to how to copy and paste formulae in columns, added to which I've never had any formal training in IT.  I'm not too old to try and have a can do attitude and so far I managed ok. Now I've started my own business I'm putting what I've taught myself in to practice and I'm pleasantly surprising myself with the results.

  • Query Designer - Formulas in Results Row

    Hi,
    Is it possible to have a formula based purely on values in the results row? e.g.
                              Col A      Col B           Col C   ColDl
    Results Row       4             5                 1          40%
    Where Col D is Col A as a percentage of the total. I can create a formula for individual rows but not for the results row where it just seems to sum individual percentages.
    Thanks

    Hi Gaurav,
    i have done what you have suggested:
    In query designer > Properties for a Key Figure > Calculations > Calculate Result As > Nothing Defined,
    I have set that, despite the rows are calculated as per formula defined in the key figure but the result field is not. The formula is only applied for the rows but not for the result. The result is olthough i have the setting you suggested a summation of that whole column and thats wrong.
    Can you or anybody else help.
    Thanks and regards,
