FRS - Prompt / Y-T-D.

Hi,
I have a report with numerous columns, one of which gets the current period via a prompt - to use in a column that has that periods data, several of which reference this prompt, so I do not ask the user for the same info numerous times.
My problem is that I want to use YTD functionality in conjunction with the prompt from another column - I can find a way to use either one, but not both together - I know this should be simple, can someone help me out please - I know the what just not the how, so a step by step would be helpful...
i.e. I want the equivalent of; -
Y-T-D Same As Column A
Is this possible?
thanks,
Robert.

With the layout I mention you don't need to select DTS members. See below steps to get YTD assuming that users will enter current month in the prompt.
Insert a data column
Click on 'functions' tab in member selection area
Select range function
When prompt window pop-up select start member as Jan and end member as 'current POV for period'
*Insert a formula column and use formula with syntax [column] : ex [D] and hide the data column with range function*repeat the same steps or insert an other formula column with [D]/Column[D].countA to get average YTD value.
Sorry if I am totally missing anything here.

  • Microsoft excel error while exporting a FRS report from Planning to excel

    I have multiple screen shots of the issue.
    are getting issues when within citrix trying to run an FRS report from workspace into excel.
    first they get a windows login window looking for credentials of a User name and a Password.
    the first error:
    "Could not open 'http:SERVERNAME:19000/hr/hrget/modules/com/hyperion/reporting/web/office/HROfficeReport.jsp/FOLDERNAMEandFILENAME.xls?format=excel.20028viewAs=excel&instanceId=11165278&previewDone=true'.
    second error:
    Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'http:SERVERNAME:19000/hr/hrget/modules/com/hyperion/reporting/web/office/HROfficeReport.jsp/FOLDERNAMEandFILENAME.xls?format=excel.20028viewAs=excel&instanceId=11165278&previewDone=true'. There are several possible reasons:
    The file name or path does not exist.
    The file is being used by another person
    The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.
    Third error:
    The file you are trying to open, 'FILENAME.xls', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file do you want to open the file now?
    yes , no, or help
    I am trying to figure out if its a CITRIX issue? An EPM issue? or what
    We have Office 2010 32 bit with smart view and excel add-in.
    Does anybody know why this may occur? I have screen shots I just don't know how to post them.

    When you export a FR report to excel, yes, you will get a prompt for credentials, but as said in 11.1.2 HFR guide, you have to ignore that by clicking "Cancel" and then you will get a second warning pop-up saying "The file you are trying to open, 'FILENAME.xls', is in a different format ........"... Click on "Yes"... you should be able to see the report in excel....
    Both these are known issues in HFR export to excel and you can find them in oracle features guide. And they are not related to Citrix.
    As in Oracle HFR user guide "When exporting a Financial Reporting document to a Microsoft Office format (Excel, Word or PowerPoint), when using Microsoft Office 2007, you may receive the following warning: "The file your are trying to open <filename>, is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?". This warning notifies users that, although the file has an Office extension ( ".xls", ".doc" or ".ppt"), the content of the file is different from the expected (native) Office format. Although Financial Reporting reports are generated in an MHTML format during export, this is not a security concern. Microsoft Office is just warning a user of a file format that is different than expected. Upon selecting “Yes” in the warning, the file will successfully open in Microsoft Office."
    Thanks,

  • General SYSVOL migration from FRS to DFSR

    Hi all.
    I have a question regarding Sysvol Migration from FRS to DFSR.
    We have migrated all of our Domain Controllers from Server 2003 to Server 2008 R2 about 2 years ago.
    I know that if Server 2003 was in use initially and you upgrade to Server 2008 R2, you need to do a FRS to DFSR migration in order for you Sysvol to make use of DFSR.
    My question is if we are upgrading now to server 2012 R2 would there be a time that this would happen automatically or do we still need to do the sysvol migration before upgrading to server 2012 R2.
    Another question I have is do we need to do the FRS to DFSR migation on all our child domains as well ?
    Many thanks for your time.
    Your answers would be appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Shaun

    Hi There.
    Yes that would be great. I would probably use the active directory removal method but I dont know if this would work as its the last domain contoller and it is not replicating with the top level domain at the moment.
    NTDSUTIL would probably need to be used ro list the servers in that domain and remove them and then if I'm correct I would need to remove the domain namig contect with the instructions below.
    Removing Orphaned Domains from Active Directory
    Determine the domain controller that holds the Domain Naming Master Flexible Single Master Operations (FSMO) role. To identify the server holding this role:
    Start the Active Directory Domains and Trusts Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in from the
    Administrative Tools menu.
    Right-click the root node in the left pane titled
    Active Directory Domains and Trusts, and then click Operations Master.
    The domain controller that currently holds this role is identified in the Current Operations Master frame.NOTE: If this changed recently, not all computer may have received this change yet due to replication.
    For more information about FSMO roles, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    197132 Windows 2000 Active Directory FSMO Roles
    Verify that all servers for the domain have been demoted.
    Click Start, point to Programs, point to
    Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.
    At the command prompt, type: ntdsutil.
    Type: metadata cleanup, and then press ENTER.
    Type: connections, and then press ENTER. This menu is used to connect to the specific server on which the changes will occur. If the currently logged-on user is not a member of the Enterprise Admins group, alternate credentials can be supplied
    by specifying the credentials to use before making the connection. To do so, type:
    set creds domainname username password , and then press ENTER. For a null password, type:
    null for the password parameter.
    Type: connect to server <var>servername</var> (where <var>servername</var> is the name of the domain controller holding the Domain Naming Master FSMO Role), and then press ENTER. You should receive confirmation that the connection is successfully
    established. If an error occurs, verify that the domain controller being used in the connection is available and that the credentials you supplied have administrative permissions on the server.
    Type: quit, and then press ENTER. The Metadata Cleanup menu is displayed.
    Type: select operation target, and then press ENTER.
    Type: list domains, and then press ENTER. A list of domains in the forest is displayed, each with an associated number.
    Type: select domain <var>number</var>, and then press ENTER, where <var>number</var> is the number associated with the domain to be removed.
    Type: quit, and then press ENTER. The Metadata Cleanup menu is displayed.
    Type: remove selected domain, and then press ENTER. You should receive confirmation that the removal was successful. If an error occurs, please refer to the Microsoft Knowledge Base for articles on specific error messages.
    Type: quit at each menu to quit the NTDSUTIL tool. You should receive confirmation that the connection disconnected successfully.
    Thanks again for all your help.

  • FRS 13508 (No instance of 13509) - Diagnosing

    Hello!
    We have two 2008 R2 DCs and our second DC has been getting the 13508 for months.  I have checked the logs and have found no instance of 13509.  I have ran ntfrsutl version and got this:

    I'm not exactly sure what that means, but I continued to do some diagnostics.  I was able to ping the FQDN with no problem.  I disabled the firewalls on both boxes and tested with no luck. 
    In addition, I have noticed on the DC that is NOT receiving the 13508 error is getting 13568 -
    The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" is in JRNL_WRAP_ERROR.
    It appears these two (13508 on DC2 and 13568 on DC1) starting about the same time months ago.  It informs me in 13568 to "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore", but I'm afraid to do so.  Is this something I should do?
    Any idea what would be causing this and what my next steps would be?  Let me know if I can get you any more info.
    Thanks for the help in advance!

    I ran a few different options on repadmin and the ones I ran were fine.
    I have checked a few times to see if I can force the replication under sites and services and it replicates fine.  The only replication issues I've noticed is sysvol.
    I ran the report under server manager and there was nothing to report there as well.  All ports are open according to the port query tool I downloaded including 135 and 389.
    I did notice a few things with the frsdiag tool and I haven't had any luck finding anything online about the errors I'm seeing:

    to see if that was the case and the port query did not say that the ports were blocked. I also forgot to mention that port query resolved the DNS name of the DC without any issues.

  • IPod not recognized by iTunes, Windows Vista prompts to format iPod drive

    Hello,
    I have IPod 80GB which I rarely use. Yesterday  when I wanted to use it, I went to add a few new audios to it, connected to my computer and launched iTunes. I added the folder which contained audios to iPod, synced it and wanted to disconnect, but iTunes took excepionally long to finish.
    When I clicked on 'eject' icon, I go a message saying 'some files are being accessed' or something like that. I waited for 5-10 minutes but it won't finish up, so I unplugged my iPod as I had to leave.
    Later when I wanted to play, I noticed I had no audios in iPod at all.
    Later when I got home, connected it again to computer, launched iTunes, but iTunes won't show iPod. A few minutes later, windows (Vista) prompted a message saying that it needs to format N: drive (which was iPod).
    I tried diagnostics on tis site, restarted/reset iPod etc, but it didn't solve the problem. I removed and reinstalled iTunes as per instructions, still no use.
    Then I called Apple support Canada and the guy on the phone said I need to pay to get support. He said he'd send me some documents via email which would solve the problem and hen I wouldn't have to pay. I gave him my email address, but so far I have recieved no emails from him. I have checked my spam and junk folders, just in case, but nothing there.
    Anyhow, this issue came up all of a sudden, there has been no physical damage to iPod, I barely use it. maybe for few minutes here and there a month. I have had numerous problems in the past every time a new iTunes update come, it always creates problems. Last year I spent many hours after iTunes update make iPod unrecognizable so I had to go back to older version, then upgrade etc. I don't remember how I solved the issue, but it took a while and it turned out to be something of iTunes version issue.
    I wonder if this is another of such issue. I hope its not a hardware issue with iPod. I'd appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    I just got Vista too and it does recognize my ipod, but itunes can't find a lot of my songs on the computer. I tried to uninstall itunes and reinstall it thinking that it would seach for new music when I installed it again but nothing new happened when I did that.

  • Using NULL and NOT NULL in prompted filters

    Dear all,
    While trying to grap the concept of prompted filters in sap bo web intelligence, I had a question whether why we cannot use NULL and NOT NULL while creating a prompted filters in our report.

    HI,
    'Is Null' and 'Not Null' are the predefined functions in webi which only eliminate the null values or considering only null values.
    'Is Null' and 'Not Null' are itself predefined functions that why you are not getting  prompts.
    Null values are standard across the databases so this is defined  as a function in webi to specific eliminate the null values.
    If something is not standard then there is option in the webi to use different operator with static values or with prompts.
    More more information on Null see the Null wiki page.

  • NULL and Unspecified in Dashboard prompts after upgrading 10g to 11g OBIEE

    Hi All,
    We are working on OBI upgradation project from 10g to 11.1.1.6.5. We are facing one issue in Dashboard prompt level. If we can create Dashboard prompt on a column, its giving "NULL", "Unspecified" additionally. But, in 10g there are no extra values.
    And the 10g, 11g instances are pointing to the same database and there are no NULL, Unspecified values in Database level.
    Through some blogs and articles we found some solutions n are below.
    To remove NULL:
    -->Go to the Physical Column properties in Physical Layer and Disable the Nullable option by uncheck the box.
    -->Go to the Database Features in Physical Layer and disable value to NULL_SUPPORTED.
    -->Go to Edit Dashboard Prompt, in Choice List Values drop-down list select SQL Results.
    To remove Unspecified:
    -->Go to Edit Dashboard Prompt, in Choice List Values drop-down list select SQL Results, then write the SQL statements as columnname is not equals to "Unspecfied" ( In this way we can able to remove Null's also.)
    -->Go to Content tab of LTS, in Where clause write an SQL query to restrict Unspecified values.
    Note: CHeck with ETL, because if they maintains the Default value is Null when the Datatype is Character and they can maintain 9999 or #### if the datatype is Numeric. And check the Physical query and debug it carefully.
    But, we have very big Repository and we have huge no.of Dashboard prompts. So, its not an easy thing to manage by using above solutions. Correct me if there are any mistakes in above.
    Any ideas on this...?
    Appreciate your help on this..!
    Thanks in Advance,
    Raghu Nagadasari

    Hi Frnds,
    As of now, i found the only solution for the above mentioned issue that how to avoid NULL in dashboard prompt level:
    Go to the Physical Column properties in Physical Layer and Disable the Nullable option by uncheck the box.
    We have done this manually for all tables.
    Appreciate if u have any other ideas.!!
    Thanks,

  • I'm on ff 3.5.5 for Mac. I've been prompted twice to download latest version. Each time I have dragged the ff icon from applications folder to the dock and all seems ok. But next time I start ff it says I'm on 3.5.5 and should update to latest version!

    There was no "update failed" message
    I wonder whether I'm doing the right thing when I drag to the dock. There's only one ff icon in the applications folder. The first time I was prompted to update it showed that days date next to the icon as if the update was successful. The second time was a few days later but I think it was still the same date next to the icon (25/8/10) I've only just noticed that (on 10/9/10) so can't be sure but I'm sure the second time was around 2nd or 3rd of Sept.
    Also, I am running two versions of ff- one is english, the other is the Italian version. They can't be opened at the same time but they seem to talk to eachother in the background, so to speak, because when I open one after a long gap, it opens with all the history and settings of the other one, right up to the last website I went to. I think I closed both when updating because it prompts you to close all programmes and restart (I think/ remember) so I just clicked ok to that prompt.
    By the way, I got the prompt to update twice for ''BOTH'' the Italian and the English version- so 4 times altogether so it would seem that ff does recognise them as separate but still has problems concluding the update for each separate one respectively.
    Thank you very much if you can help.

    However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
    What we found from out testing:
    - The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
    - The file can be closed and  Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
    - Also, until the  Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file. 
    Example Scenario:
    - User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
    - Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
    - User 1 saves his file and closes it - but  Dreamweaver is still open.
    - User 2 also saves his file and leaves  Dreamweaver  open.
    - The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
    - If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
    - Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
    Other information:
    - Files are opened directly from the server
    - Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
    - Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
    - The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
    - The users are usually working on the files all day
    - It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
    It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
    Anyone know if this is a known issue?
    Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
    Thanks

    Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

  • Questions on prompts

    All,
    I am on 9.3.1. Couple of questions on prompts.
    Is it possible to define a prompt once and use in several reports (like Global RunTimrPrompts in Businessrules)?
    From the choice list, Can I limit users the select only one member (member instead of members, like BusinessRules)?
    In the choice, to limit promts, when I select descendants of promt and Not Level0 members, loosing the tree structure and displays list (in BusinessRules I don't loose tree structure)?
    In the choice list, if I say descendants of a member or genX or children or match etc, can the result be sorted? in FR studio I am able to sort, how can I save this view option to the report? or How can I sort in workspace?
    Row1 Prompt, Row2- Parent of row1 gives 5200 : Error executing query: server/app/db//Error(1001005) Unknown Member [Same As Row  2] in Report.
    Any alternate solution?
    Dimension Geography is Prompt, Page is set to Children of Prompt, On a row I need the children of selection on Page.
    From the prompt if user selects US, Dropdown in the page shows all Regions (NorthEast,South,West etc). If user selects NorthEast, the rows will be NY,NJ,NH,CT etc. How can this be achieved?
    Thanks

    From the choice list, Can I limit users the select only one member (member instead of members, like BusinessRules)?
    *Yes you can. After prompt, you can choose to limit user by choose member in member list. It will limit choose when user open prompt.
    (Default member is to choose the default. Member list is list that user can choose)*
    My question is from the list they can choose one or more members. But I want them to be able to select only one member from the list (not more than one)
    I don't know how to do this as well. Thanks.
    In the choice list, if I say descendants of a member or genX or children or match etc, can the result be sorted? in FR studio I am able to sort, how can I save this view option to the report? or How can I sort in workspace?
    In FR there are function sortHierarchy. You can select that to sort
    SortHierarchy sorts members in outline order. I want alphabetical order (not outline order)
    sorry, don't know how to do that.
    Row1 Prompt, Row2- Parent of row1 gives 5200 : Error executing query: server/app/db//Error(1001005) Unknown Member [Same As Row 1] in Report.
    Any alternate solution?
    The member might be isn't data. It maybe text or function (it probably because when you edit you're reporting and missed to change that). Or probably Row 2 is also refer to another row
    Row1- Prompt
    Row2- Parent of [same as Row1] gives the error as mentioned.
    From what I learned, it can't be done. Parent of same as Row 1 can't be done. I'm having the same problem as you right now (using FR 11.1 to get the name of prompt in function Descendants of Prompt for product).
    *sorry can't help                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • Report should prompt me for parameters, please help.

    Hi All,
    I am using Crystal version 10, So is there any way I can get the behaviour of my parameters as dynamic parameter? I have this requirement because when I am deploying the Report on BO server, and try to open the report from InfoView, it is not prompting me for parameters, rather it is giving me the copy which we had scheduled earlier. To get the fresh data with different parameters, we again need to schedule the report.
    What I want is simple, Whenever user clicks on the report link in infoview, I should be promted for the parameters my report is using.
    Please help..
    Thanks
    -Azhar

    Hi
    It would prompt whenever it's refreshed.
    You can refer to Business View manager guide from [here|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir2/en/xir2_bv_admin_en.pdf ] for detailed information.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Windows prompting send error report or dont send

  • XML Publicher Report Output without Prompt Value

    Hello,
    I've one report(XML Publisher) which prints various data from PS_JOB,PS_PERSONAL_DATA and some other Performance tables.
    The Prompt Values are from a dynamic view which shows the Subordinate employees(emplids and names) of the login employee.
    The base query view i created has all the information of all active employees from all Business Unit. Now when i select when employee from prompt table the output values for that particular employee and is ok. But when i don't select anything(no table edit), it is not showing the output of my subordinates but for all the employee. That is Right because i've base report view is for all employees.
    Is there any way that if i dont select anything from prompt values i'll get only output of my subordinates only?
    Regards!

    Thanks. I did try that before but the view didn't build but i don't how today the view built successfully.
    But when i tried to run the query with a normal user who's having subordinate the excel output is still blank.
    One more thing, when i checked Resolve Meta SQL in Application designer, the %oprclause doesn't resolve to PS.
