HFM 9.3.1 Extract Data - adjustments?

If I run an "extract task">extract data, will it extract adjustments I've entered as well?
thanks!

BTW,
The "official" answer to your original question is --> No. It will only extract entity currency. You will have to extract Journals, etc., as well and bring those into the other application.
A possible "answer" to your second question about extracting all of that data, would be perhaps to use rules and a metadata account to do this. I would create an account called something like boolExtractEntities. Create a rule that checks for that flag to be set to 1. If it is, have it grab everything for the current BASE entity and append to a file. Have it grab Entity Curr Total as that will have adjustments in it as opposed to Entity Currency.
Depending on what you are looking to get, you could have the rules append to one big file so that if you kick off a consolidation at a parent level with the flag set to 1, it would drop all of the base entity data into this file.
You're basically recreating the built in extract functionality..... If you are at all familiar with rules and writing to files, this isn't that hard really.

  • Error trying to extract data via HFM objects

    I've written a program to extract selected data from HFM (version 11.1.1.3.500) using the API objects. The program (shown at the bottom of this post) is failing on the 2nd of the following 2 lines:
    oOption = oOptions.Item(HSV_DATAEXTRACT_OPT_SCENARIO_SUBSET)
    oOption.CurrentValue = lBudgetScenario
    where oOption is a data load/extract object previously initialized and lBudgetScenario is the long internal ID for our budget scenario.
    The error is usually "COM Exception was unhandled" with a result code of "0x800456c7", but, mysteriously, even with no code changes, it sometimes throws the error "FileNotFoundException was not handled", where it says that it could not load "interop.HSXServerlib or one of its dependencies". The second error occurs even though HSXServer was previously initialized in the program and used in conjunction with the login.
    I've carefully traced through the VB.NET 2010 code and find that all relevant objects are instantiated and variables correctly assigned. It also occurred to me that the data load DLLs might have been updated when the 11.1.1.3.50 and 500 patches were applied. For that reason, I removed the references to those DLLs, deleted the interop files in the debug and release folders and copied the server versions of those DLLs to my PC. I then restored the DLL references in Visual Studio which recreated the interops. However, the error still occurs.
    The ID I'm using (changed to generic names in the code below) has appropriate security and, for example, can be used to manually extract data for the same POV via the HFM client.
    I've removed irrelevant lines from the code and substituted a phony ID, password, server name and application name. The line with the error is preceded by the comment "THE LINE BELOW IS THE ONE THAT FAILS".

    oEntityTreeInfo = oMetaData.Dimension(lDimID)
    GetMemberID = oEntityTreeInfo.GetItemID(strMemLabel)
    End Function
    End Module

    I stumbled upon the solution to my problem. The documentation for extracting data via objects defines member ID variables as Longs. In fact, I've always defined such variables as longs in previous object programs and had no problems. It appears that the datal load/extract "option" property of "Currentvalue" is defined as integer. When I changed all of my member ID items (such as the "lBudgetScenario" variable that was the right-side of the failing assignment statement) to be integers, the program worked.

  • How to Extract data from HFM in ANSI format?

    We want the .dat file from Extract data in ANSI format. Currently this file is created by default in Unicode format. I tried unchecking the 'Save all files in Unicode format' option in Consolidation tab under Preferences, but for some reason the change is not getting saved.
    Does unchecking of this option change the file format?
    Is there any other option to change the file format ?
    What is required to be done to save the changes made in Preferences?
    I am using HFM 9.3.1

  • Extended Analytics - Is it possible to extract data from HFM to MS Access through an UDL (OBDC) file?

    Hello,
    I am trying to extract data from HFM, using Extended Analytics, to MS Access through an UDL (OBDC) file but it displays the following error:
    "error occurred while connecting to the database"
    I've followed these steps:
    1. Create a blank MS Access database (.mdb format)
    2. Create an .UDL file which connects to MS Access database:
          - Provider: Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
          - Connection: Linked to the .mdb database created in step 1.
          - Give "ReadWrite" permissions.
    3. Test .UDL file connection successfully.
    4. Create DNS with Extended Analytics DNS Configuration tool.
    5. In Extended Analytics (HFM), once selected the new DNS and extract it displays the error commented before.
    ¿Do you know how i can solve this issue?
    Thank you in advance,

  • ODI : extract datas from HFM filtering on base members of certain accounts

    Does anyone know how to filter only Basemembers for certain accounts for extracting data ?
    I need to extract data for level0 members of certain accounts which is about 300. If I don't put the filter its more than 2000 records.

    Hi - unfortunately you cannot do that in the current KM. We faced the same issue and logged the issue with Oracle. Its being considered as an enhancement not as a bug. So we have to wait for future releases. As a solution for this we created TaskLists in HFM and extracted data.

  • Is it possible to change the dimension order when extracting data from HFM?

    Hello,
    When accessing Consolidation/Extract/Data is it possible to change the dimension order of the extract rather than extracting the standard order?
    I can see you can change the dimension order visually by going to "Reorder dimensions" but this does not carry through to the actual extract.
    If its not possible using this method is there another method? Trying to avoid using smartview for this purpose.
    Many thanks and kind regards,
    Rich

    Hi,
    No, it is not possible to change the order type.

    Where do you think the financial reports get their data from? Financial Reports pull data from data sources such as Essbase, HFM.

  • Error while extracting data to replicated partition (EAL)

    Hi,
    I´m using Essbase Analytics. I want to create a copy of my HFM application in Essbase.
    So I´ve created a new bridge. In the Essbase tab of the bridge I choose "Replicated partition", because I want the data in Essbase directly, not in the EAL server.
    So EAL created the application, database and the outline.
    In the extract tab I select my created region and click "Extract data". After some time it ends, but no data is stored in the essbase database!
    The log file of the EAL server says: Extract region requested (time stamp is the beginning of the process)
    Has anyone an idea??
    Thanks, Stefan
    P.S.: The creation of an transparent partition works fine and I can see data via Smartview.

    We use EAL with the transparent partition option without any issues. We write some report scripts to export the data from the app and load into another essbase app periodically for reporting. We can also use smartview or the add-in to pull data directly from the EAL essbase apps.
    What are you trying to do that requires you to use a replicated partition? We were told transparent was the preferred method and so we used that option.

  • VB Script to extract data

    You could use this to create a command line program which you could easily call to do what you want.

  • Extracting data with zero values for periods without data

    Hello Together,
    i extracted data from our hfm application from period 1 to 3.
    Now i found that some rows begin with period 2 or 3 because there are no data in period 1 or 2.
    So my question is, how i can get zero values for periods with no data.
    Hope someone can help me.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Martin
    P.S.: Our actual hfm version is 11.1.1.3
    edit

    For the periods with no data, HFM does not have a "0" to offer for the data extraction. Since the default data extract from HFM has each period on it's own row in the *.dat file, I don't understand your comment about rows starting with period 2 or 3. In the *.dat file the row for period 1 simply won't exist. Are you using a custom approach/tool for data extraction?
    The only time HFM will offer a "0" where there is indeed no data, is if you extract derived data. You must include calculated data, and even then I believe HFM will only extract a "0" for the first period after a period where there was data, and only for flow accounts (Revenue/Expense). so if you have "100" in period 1, and no data in period 2, such that the derived value YTD for period 2 is "0", then you must include calculated values in the extract and you should see "0" for period 2. However, I don't believe HFM will extract "0" for period 3 - instead it will be blank/missing.
    In general it could be very dangerous to force HFM to give zeros where there is no data.

  • Open Hub: How-to doc "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical File"

    Hi all,
    We are using open hub to download transaction files from infocubes to application server, and would like to have filename which is dynamic based period and year, i.e. period and year of the transaction data to be downloaded. 
    I understand we could use logical file for this purpose.  However we are not sure how to have the period and year to be dynamically derived in filename.
    I have read in sdn a number of posted messages on a similar topic and many have suggested a 'How-to' paper titled "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical Filename".  However i could not seem to be able to get document from the link given. 
    Just wonder if anyone has the correct or latest link to the document, or would appreciate if you could share the document with all in sdn if you have a copy.
    Many thanks and best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi,
    After creating open hub press F1 in Application server file name text box from the help window there u Click on Maintain 'Client independent file names and file paths'  then u will be taken to the Implementation guide screen > click on Cross client maintanance of file name > create a logical file path by clicking on new entiries > after creating logical file path now go to Logical file name definition there give your Logical file , name , physical file (ur file name followed by month or year what ever is applicable (press f1 for more info)) , data format (ASC) , application area (BW) and logical path (choose from F4 selection which u have created first), now goto Assignment of  physical path to logical path > give syntax group >physical path is the path u gave at logical file name definition.
    however we have created a logical path file name to identify the file by sys date but ur requirement seems to be of dynamic date of tranaction data...may u can achieve this by creating a variable. U can see the help from F1 that would be of much help to u. All the above steps i have explained will help u create a dynamic logical file.
    hope this helps u to some extent.

Even I can extract data from another test oracle database into BW ODS successfully.
       Our BW system has two BW applicaton server and use oracle database. the one application server locates on IBM AIX host. the another one locates on one NT server. the application server on NT server is used for data extration from MS SQL SERVER  database into BW oracle database. and MS SQL SERVER and NT platform application server locate on same one host. DBSL was installed on the NT application server already. and DB connector also was created successfully for MS SQL SERVER and datasource also was generated.
