GRC PC 10.0 business rule creation: Wildcard for Currency field

Hi,
Currently I am designing a business rule that has standard price as a deficiency. I am using a blank check. But the system wants me to choose a specific currency. I want it to retrieve all records with the deficiency, regardless of currency.
I've tried using "*" in the currency field, but it retrieves nothing. I am only able to retrieve records when I add a specific currency.
Why is that? And what can I do to fix this problem?
Thank you.

Hi Raphael,
Have you defined the Currency field as a filter criteria? If yes, can you please remove the field from filter selection and try to execute the rule again.
Just make sure it comes under output format section.
regards,
Rajeshwari

Hi friends,
I'm trying to create a business rules to validate a datetime attribute.
I tried to use the Validation "must contain the pattern" but I don't kwnow exactly how it works.
In the Edit Action section I have 3 options:
- Attribute value
- Attribute
- Blank
Where should I write the RegExp?
Any comment will be appreciated.
Kinde Regards,

Hi superbluesman,
thanks for your quick answer.
I created this expression to validate my specific date format and it works:
^(0[1-9]|1[012]|[1-9])[- /.](0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])[- /.](19|20)\d\d

When we give wildcard for date field

can we give wild card for date field in range table.
my code is this
RAnges r_erdat for mara-erdat
r_erdat-sign = 'I'.
r_erda-option = 'CP'.
r_erdat-low = '2009'.*
append r_erdat.
select erdat from mara
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE itab
where erdat
in
   r_erdat.

<<Don't answer questions that break the rules. Date questions are not permitted>>
Hi,
       Instead you can take the entire range for that particular year.
r_erdat-sign = 'I'.
r_erda-option = 'BT'.
r_erdat-low = '20090101'.   <- begin date
r_erdat-high = '20091231'.   <- end date
append r_erdat.

Business Rules creation stops Essbase Admin Server

I am trying to create a simple rules file to upload actual data but 4 out of 5 attempts causes Essbase Admin Server to Stop. In my rules file, I followed these steps:
1. inserted three new columns using text
2. skipped the first row under data source properties
3. under field properties, selected the various dimensions to represent each column. I was not specific in the dimensions selection as the data has various accounts, market, product.
4. some of them were prefixed with alphabets to correlate to Essbase data.
5. validated the rules file - no errors - rules file is correct for loading data
I was doing the rules file in stages ie. rule1 had only field properties set up. rule2 had three columns inserted in addition. rule3 while inserting the same three columns stopped the server !
Essbase log dint show server disconnecting or error messages! is this some sign of server to crash soon :( or file corruption :(

I haven't encountered a load rule crashing EAS before, but I have had other simple tasks, such as opening an outline, do it. The issue there was to change the Essbase ports from the default in the essbase.cfg file. We chose SERVERPORTBEGIN 42000 and SERVERPORTEND 43000. I have no way of knowing if this is your issue, but strange EAS crashes like that make me suspiscious that it might be. There is no reason I can think of why a load rule should crash EAS...

@DESCENDANTS Function in Business rule creation

Hi,
I am using the copy data system template to copy data between two forms.
Everything is working well when seleting one member from each dimension, but for the period dimension I need to select multiple months.
I know that is possible by using @DESCENDANTS function, but actually i couldn't figure out what is the Member Name,Generation Level number and Generation level name.
I referd to the epma_admin but couldn't understand it yet.
My period dimension is like that
YearTotal
Q1
Jan
Feb
Mar
Q2
May
and i need the 12 months to be used in the forms to copy the data from and to
I used a work around to edit the script manually but i need some help on how to use the functions.
Thank you

there is 2 sections in copy data
First section is 'static'
and the second section is source destination.
I think what you want to do is put IDescendants(Yeartotal) in the static section. So this will do it for all 12 months. for whatever you put in the source / destination section.
So if you are copying Acc1 to Acc2 for example. and use IDescendants(Yeartotal) for Period
The
Static
Period IDescendants(Yeartotal)
Source Destionatioin
Acc1 Acc2
In this example of a 2 dimensional cube. This will copy 12 months of Acc1 to 12 months of Acc2

Business Partner Creation/Display - General Data fields are missing

Hi,
We have an issue in our ECC6.0 system. In FPP1/FPP2/FPP3 transactions General data fields such as Driver's license, SSN, Employee class are missing under Identification tab. But the same are displayed in BP transaction code. What configuration would causing this issue.

I found a SAP Note 844949 which is talking about the same kind of issue. As per the note I regenerated subscreen containers for application object BUPA.
Call transaction BUSP and generate the subscreen containers for the application objects BUPA, FICA and BUPR. To do this, set the "All screens" indicator under "Generate All Screens or Just Selected Screens".
If this does not correct the incorrect display, use transaction BUPT for the business partner or transaction CAWM for the contract account to make sure that the fields are not missing due to the field modifications. (If you cannot call these transactions, exit the SAP Easy Access menu by using /n and then call BUPT or CAWM.

Business Rule/Member formula for Y-T-D value

I have an account in my P&L which holds monthly movement values (e.g. Jan=10, Feb=20, Mar=10, Apr=15). Lets Call this AC123
I need to populate Balance Sheet account (TB Last) with the "Y-T-D" equivalent values (i.e. Jan=10, Feb=30 [10+20], Mar=40[10+20+10], Apr=55[10+20+10+15]. Lets call this AC345.
How can I calculate AC345 as Y-T-D(@CURRMBR(PERIOD))->AC123?
Currently I have a member formula on AC345 as follows:
IF(@ISMBR("Jan"))
     "AC123";
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Feb"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Mar"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Apr"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("May"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Jun"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Jul"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Aug"))

Hmm, well one way you might do this is to a YTD hierarchy (I know you are doing movements, but sometimes balances are nice, too, and this approach lets you TB whatever with the values and get the right YTD value) in my Months/Time Period/whatever dimension.
Something like this (and I am making it Planning-centric but should work for any BSO db that has separate Years and Months dimensions):
Months
|_TotalYear ~
|___Q1 +
|____Jan +
|____Feb +
|____Mar +
etc.
And then at the same level as TotalYear I would have this:
YTD ~ Label ONly
|_Jan YTD ~
|__Jan +
|_Feb YTD ~
|__Jan YTD +
|__Feb +
|_Mar YTD ~
|__Feb YTD +
|__Mar +
etc.
That gives you the YTD values (balance or movement) but you still need to refer to the correct YTD member and that means the big IF statement still exists.
What I think you need is the @CURRMBRRANGE formula:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/currmbrrange.html
NB -- This is a guestimate on your code, but how about this:
"AC345" = @SUMRANGE("AC123", @CURRMBRRANGE("Months", LEV, 0, , 0)) ;
The startOffset value is null -- that should give you Jan. The endOffset is 0, that should give you whatever the current Month is. I think that's it. I would likely make this member a dynamic calc but that's up to you.

Business rule to add or reduce a fixed percentage for the next FY

Folks
I am new to business rules. I need help from the gurus. I am working on a business rule which has to do the following:
- Take the values for a particular scenario and version of previous year
- Add or subtract fixed % from the amount and copy the calculated value to the current Fiscal Year.
For Example :
For FY13, Year Total, Budget and Version 1 we have 1000 then lets say the fixed % we choose is to add 10 % then when this business rule is run for
FY14, Year Total, Budget and Version 1 it should produce 1100.
Has anyone ever did this kind of rule. Any help is much appreciated on this.
Thanks
Santosh

Block creation will be the biggest issue, so do this:
&CurrentYear->Budget->Working = &PriorYear->Budget->Final * 1+ {rtpPercentVarable};
where {rtpPercentVarable} is a calc mgr variable set as Percent.
If you have block creation issues then:
DATACOPY &PriorYear->Budget->Final to &CurrentYear->Budget->Working;
FIX(Budget,WOrking)
&CUrrentYear=&CurrentYear * {RTPPercentVariable};
ENDFIX

Where and how to create business rules?

Hi All,
1) Where and how to create business rules?
2) How to configure Rule Engines (Ex: JRULE Engine or any other Rule Engines)?
3) Whar products are available for Rule Engines?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You have some options on business rules.
If you just want to create business rules that are easy for business owners to edit without a lot of training, Oracle BPM has a simple business rules creation and end user edit capability. The benefits to using the rules that come with Oracle BPM are:
<li> they are simple and easy to edit
<li> end users can get up to speed quickly to edit them
<li> when changed, the business process is immediately impacted
<li> they can use the Oracle BPM business parameters that also come with the product
Drawbacks are:
<li> you can only use Project variables as the variable content inside of them
<li> if a company already has a business rules engine, they are different that the company's standard
Business rules engines have been used with Oracle BPM. If you are a consultant, first ask if there is a standard business rules engine that the company already has purchased that they use (e.g. iLog from IBM, Corticon...). If this is the case, you typically integrate to the rules using a web service interface that the business rules engine exposes.
If they do not already have a business rules engine, consider Jrules. The benefits are:
<li> it is a part of the Oracle BPM Suite that they might have purchased
<li> version 11g of the Jrules is coming out soon with a friendly front end
Hope this helps,
Dan

Exporting business rules

I'm using the instructions from the following thread, Re: Steps to migrate Hyperion Planning application from 9.2.0 to new 9.3.1 env to copy a Planning application from version 9.2.0.2 to 9.3.1. There is a reference in these instructions to export the business rules using Administration Services. I only see options for Business Rules to either copy or export to shared services in the 9.2.0.2 version of the AAS Console. Which one of these options should I use or is there someplace else I should look to export the business rules.
Thanks,
Tom

Yes, the user Id. is an admin for business rules. It may be a configuration issue. I get the following message when I try to click on a rule under Business Rules in Shared Services.
Refer to your Admin Guide to configure security privileges for this application.
I get this message in both the 9.2.0.2 environment and 9.3.1 environment. The user is an admin for Business Rules in the 9.3.1 environment also.
The application does not use forms which I beleive is what Business Rules are used for. Not sure if they are used for anything else. Is it safe that I can ignore the business rules in the 9.3.1 environment or am I missing a critical piece that needs to be included in the 9.3.1 environment.
Thanks,
Tom

Business Rules not visible in Hyperion Planning

I created a group in Shared Services and added 6 (native) accounts.
After that, I assigned Access Privileges to Business Rules in AAS for this group.
When I open Planning Web and go to Tools - Business Rules, 5 of the 6 users can see the Business Rules,
but one users only sees the CalcScripts.
I think I tried everything; removed/added the account from the group, refreshing security, refresh in Planning-Desktop
I'm using version 9.2.03
Anyone knows whats going on here?

Thats the strange thing; We use (native) groups to provision. This works fine for the other 5 users.
But even if I provision this one user for the Business Rules, they remain invisible to this user. (in Planning)
I discovered this morning that this user can create a new BR, but when I try to open it in AAS console I get an error
"Exception occured, Please check your log file for details."
Unfortunately, the log doesn't provide any more details. (even if I set the level to Debug)

Hi, we have the same error (region definition error, rules in planning not running for approx. 15 min) - then suddenly working again.
This is a desaster, as planning users save not-calculated data and cause inconsistency in the system.
had this in planning 4 installation up to Aug.08 and then in system 9 (with planning patch 5) - rel. 9.3.1.1.5 using IBM Websphere -
all quick solution from hyperion did not really help: increase number of ports, java cache, change netrelay, netretryconect etc. in essbase.cfg and
Olap.server.net retry +Olap.server.net connect delay in essbase.properties files
Review business rules and users for errors, hardware, caches, fragmentation, potential system overload, search for corrupted database, invalid formulas in outline ...
it came out, that it was just 1 business rule causing this trouble: our only rule, where you enter in a user prompt a numeric value -problem is quotation marks.
we installed the cumulative Service Fix 11 for this (and other reasons) last week (takes approx. 4 hours to install with all the manual steps - just came out in May - Rel. 9.3.1.1.11)
as the error happened only from time to time in the peak of our planning session, we will monitor next months but are very optimistic to have things fixed (solution obviously in fix 9 already)
this link may help as well:
http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1201134375/1217512299/Strange+behaviour+with+HBR++%28Planning+931%29
I suggest to install Service Fix 11 - if you read the manual, you probably find more fixed errors in there. (Patch is for Planning and BR Rules/AAS EAS)

Search for member name in WebForms and Business Rules - 11.1.2.1

Hi,
Client has a hierarchy with two parents (Owned and Managed) within a dimension. The 'Managed' parent is no longer valid. Thus they want to eliminate it and move it's children under the 'Owned' member. However there could be ramifications in Business Rules and/or WebForms. Is there a way to search all Business Rules and WebForms for 'Managed' to see which Business Rules and/or WebForms would be affected?
Or is best way to extract all the WebForms and Business Rules to xml files via LCM and then write custom script to search the files? Not sure if this functionality is already there or not.
They are on 11.1.2.1

I don't think "Show Usage" picks up Business Rules that are in the Calculation Manger.
Also check the Member Formulas - easiest to do in the EAS (view the Outline, and the member formulas are displayed. Otherwise, in Planning, you would need to go into each member individually, and that would take forever). And if you're using Partitions or MRAs, you should check them, too.
I'm assuming you're doing all of this in a copy of the application, and not on a "live" app, right? So you can make the change and then validate the Business Rules and Outline, and the error messages will tell you where "Managed" was being used.
