How can we load metadata automatically in HFM

Hi There
I am working with HFM 9.3.1.
I have account dimension in this every day new members are coming.
I just want to process this members that automatically update to the existing application.How can i do this is there any process that i can do in HFM 9.3.1 or should i need to upgrade the existing system.
Please suggest me that could be great help.
Thanks
Hars

Have a look on www.epmmaestro.com
The EPM Maestro Suite has among its many other features, the ability to automate both metadat extract and load.
You do not indicate how your metadata file is updated (ie the new members added), as this will still be a manual effort.
Another new feature of the EPM Maestro (web feature), is Metadata Validator, which will ensure your attributes etc are correct.
That said, have you worked a plan since your posting?

  • How can i load Metadata file into georaster?

    Hello everybody,
    I stone a tiff file in my db,I stone tiff file like this:
    1.create GeoRaster Table:
    create table rm_image_t(
    georid number,
    file_type varchar2(30),
    image_file mdsys.sdo_georaster);
    2.create trigger:
    exec sdo_geor_utl.createdmltrigger('rm_image_t','image_file');
    3.Create raster data table:
    create table rdt1 of mdsys.sdo_raster(
    primary key(rasterid,pyramidlevel,bandblocknumber,rowblocknumber,columnblocknumber))
    lob(rasterblock) store as (nocache nologging);
    4.Grant:
    exec dbms_java.grant_permission('OPER','SYS:java.io.FilePermission','c:\aaa.tif','read');
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('MDSYS','SYS:java.io.FilePermission','c:\aaa.tif','read' );
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('OPER','SYS:java.io.FilePermission', 'c:\aaa.tif','read' );
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('PUBLIC','SYS:java.io.FilePermission','c:\aaa.tif','read' );
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('MDSYS','SYS:java.io.FilePermission','c:\aaa.tif','read' );
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('OPER','SYS:java.io.FilePermission', 'c:\aaa.tif','read');
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('PUBLIC','SYS:java.io.FilePermission','c:\aaa.tif','read');
    5.Insert tiff file:
    DECLARE
    geor SDO_GEORASTER;
    BEGIN
    -- Initialize an empty GeoRaster object into which the external image
    -- is to be imported.
    INSERT INTO rm_image_t
    values( 1, 'TIFF', sdo_geor.init('rdt1') );
    -- Import the TIFF image.
    SELECT image_file INTO geor FROM rm_image_t
    WHERE georid = 1 FOR UPDATE;
    sdo_geor.importFrom(geor,'blocksize=(512,512) compression=DEFLATE', 'TIFF', 'file','c:\aaa.tif');
    UPDATE rm_image_t SET image_file = geor WHERE georid = 1;
    COMMIT;
    END;
    Then:
    SQL> SELECT t.georid,
    2 sdo_geor.validategeoraster(t.image_file) isvalid
    3 from rm_image_t t order by georid;
    GEORID ISVALID
    1 TRUE
    But I do not know how to load tiff_file's metadata into georaster.
    Can you help me?thanks!

  • PSE 6 layer styles - how can I load new styles?

    PSE 6 layer styles - how can I load new styles?

    Hi,
    You need to download styles and then paste them to C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Photo Creations\layer styles.
    You need to have a
    1) .asl file
    2) metadata.xml file.
    Relaunch  the application after this. the styles would be visible.
    In case you dont see them just go to C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Locale\en_us and delete "MediaDatabase.db3" file.
    For XP:
    Copy the styles to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Photo Creations\layer styles
    and delete the "MediaDatabase.db3" file. at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Locale\en_US.
    For MAC :
    /Volumes/OS<name of Disk>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/8.0/Photo Creations/Layer styles.
    and delete the "MediaDatabase.db3" file. at   /Volumes/OS<name of Disk>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/8.0/Locale/en_US
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you load artworks automatically into the indeisgn CS3

    Hi All,
    How do you load artworks automatically into the indeisgn CS3. Is it through a script or any other way.
    Thanks
    Devakanth

    "artworks" is a bit vague...can you expand?
    File > Place is the usual way, but there are times when cut and paste is fine or better.

  • How can I load my data faster?  Is there a SQL solution instead of PL/SQL?

    11.2.0.2
    Solaris 10 sparc
    I need to backfill invoices from a customer. The raw data has 3.1 million records. I have used pl/sql to load these invoices into our system (dev), however, our issue is the amount of time it's taking to run the load - effectively running at approx 4 hours. (Raw data has been loaded into a staging table)
    My research keeps coming back to one concept: sql is faster than pl/sql. Where I'm stuck is the need to programmatically load the data. The invoice table has a sequence on it (primary key = invoice_id)...the invoice_header and invoice_address tables use the invoice_id as a foreign key. So my script takes advantage of knowing the primary key and uses that on the subsequent inserts to the subordinate invoice_header and invoice_address tables, respectively.
    My script is below. What I'm asking is if there are other ideas on the quickest way to load this data...what am I not considering? I have to load the data in dev, qa, then production so the sequences and such change between the environments. I've dummied down the code to protect the customer; syntax and correctness of the code posted here (on the forum) is moot...it's only posted to give the framework for what I currently have.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated; how can I load the data faster knowing that I need to know sequence values for inserts into other tables?

    1. Don't commit in a loop - you only add to the run time and load on the box ultimately reducing scalability and removing transactional integrity. Commit once at the end of the job.
    2. Make sure you specify the list of columns you are inserting into as well as the values or columns you are selecting. This is good practice as it protects your code from compilation issues in the event of new columns being added to tables. Also it makes it very clear what you are inserting where.
    3. If you use WHEN OTHERS THEN... to log something, make sure you either rollback or raise the exception. What you have done in your code is say - I don't care what the problem is, just commit whatever has been done. This is not good practice.

  • How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's inside other movie clip?

    Hi.
    I creating my first flash (actionscript 3.0) website but I'm
    stuck with a visual effect I want to create.
    I have a window on my website called contentWindow. Every
    time you click a button this window is supposed to leave the stage,
    load the requested content and return to the stage.
    The sliding window is a movie clip with 83 frames, 21 to
    enter the stage, 21 to leave the stage again, 20 for nothing (its
    just to simulate the loading time) and 21 to return to the stage.
    Now my goal is, when the user clicks on a navigation button,
    the window exits the stage, loads an external SWF with the content,
    and then returns to the stage.
    I've the "window" movie clip with an instance name of
    "contentWindow". Inside there is another movie clip with an
    instance name of "contentLoader". The content that the user
    requested should appear inside the "contentLoader".
    Now, when the contentWindow leaves the stage, I get this
    error message:
    quote:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
    a null object reference.
    at rwd_fla::MainTimeline/trigger()
    If I switch
    "contentWindow.contentLoader.addChild(navLoader);" for
    "contentWindow.addChild(navLoader);" it works fine, but the
    external SWF doesn't move with the window.
    How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's
    inside other movie clip?

    Hi,
    Recently, I have been putting together a flash presentation.
    And I am just wondering if the following might help you, in your
    communication with the said swf file:
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
    onComplete);
    function onComplete(event:Event):void
    event.target.content.thinggy_mc.y -= 100;
    Not the best example, but this allows you to target a mc
    within an external swf file. I think if you look up this code, you
    will have an answer ;)
    Kind Regards,
    Boxing Boom

  • How can I disable iPhoto automatic launch?

    Hi,
    I do not use iPhoto to import my digital images. How can I disable the automatic launch when I plug my camera or card reader?
    Thanks!

    Hi Paul,
    To do this just open Image Capture, open its preferences and then under the general tab you can select the option of "When a camera is connected, open:"
    Just select no application and that should do it.

  • How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something if i use firefo

    How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?
    Windows Computer

    1) If you are talking about the file names on the computer, there is a
    setting to turn off known file types. Open your file browser. Then
    just under the location bar, press '''Tools,''' then '''Folder Options.'''
    A new window will open. Select '''View.''' Look for
    '''Hide Extensions For Known File Types.'''
    2) Never NEVER '''NEVER''' download anything unless you know what
    it is. If a web site claims it needs to download something, what is it?
    It could be something like the flash player, '''or a virus ! !'''
    Ask questions, or go somewhere else.

  • How can I load a .pst file to an instrument in logic express 9?

    I have some instruments plug-in settings from my old computer that I used with logic, and I want to load them into logic so I can use them on the computer I moved them to. On any instrument I try (ES1, ES2, EXS24 and the rest) it won't allow me to load the files (.pst files) and I know I should be able to. Am I just going about it wrong or using the wrong instrument? How can I load these files so that I can use the instruments again?

    Pages is not in a format compatible for what you want to do.
    After you save a a Pages document, go to File > Export > and choose either Word or Pdf format. You can also choose RTF or PlainText too. Then you can email to yourself or others.
    Good Luck.

    I have MacAir with OS 10.8.4, how can I cancel the automatic link of my USB flashdisk to Mac instead of BootCamp, since I have one time press the ALT key before choosing "MAC" or "BOOTCAMP". Thanks

    That only happens when you are running Windows in a Virtual Machine with OS X as the host. Shut down the VM and restart your Mac.  Once the VM is running again and you insert a USB flash drive you should get that prompt again.

    I am having similar issues with a *.exe from LV6.1.  I have the runtime engine for 6.1 and recently upgraded to 8.2 from 7.1.  I've never had 6.1 on my machine.  I am able to install this executible and runtime engine on a machine with 7.1 and can run the *.exe fine. 
    I get a load error and am not sure why.  I have had similar issues with old VI's that I have written in 7.1 executing on this machine w/ 8.2
    any suggestions.

  • How can I get an automatic connection to wifi on startup?

    We lost internet connection during snow/ice storm. I have to manually connect to wifi now. How can I get an automatic connection to wifi?

    An 'uninterruptible power supply' that automatically steps in and takes your computer
    off the grid momentarily, will work in cases of brown-out (under-power) & surge (spike)
    and it does so at a fast rate. Most of these also offer a way to customize sensitivity to
    a certain degree, depending on model and should there be a valid reason to do so.
    An old-school surge protector, even if it has a few fancy LEDs, is no protection. And
    for less than a replacement logic board or an hour of authorized Apple repair, the UPS
    is a fairly good investment. Backup battery is user-replaceable in the better made units.
    Most of them offer extra ports that do not use the battery-backup power feature. If you
    need to have more items run when the power switches up/down or out, you'd need to
    consider a larger capacity backup power unit. In some instances, the makers of these
    (for a time, perhaps even now) did caution users to not install more than one UPS per
    room when the same leg may have inadequate grounding, since these can dump the
    excess surge power from several different UPS units and overload the ground.
    That said, the gamble is yours. I've found to have and use these is some protection
    and when away from the computer. Most settings for controlling them appear in OS X.
    No additional software is required. Other settings may be on the UPS front panel.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I load a CMYK jpeg image

    How can I load a CMYK jpeg image (originally saved from Photoshop) and then
    turn it into an rgb BufferedImage, in order to display it on screen in an
    applet?
    I first tried ImageIO.read(), but that does not work for cmyk jpegs. I then
    looked into the com.sun.image.codec.jpeg package, and tried methods like
    decodeAsBufferedImage() and decodeAsRaster().
    The first one (decodeAsBufferedImage) returned an image, but it seems that
    it was interpreted as an ARGB, and the colors were incorrect.
    I then read the documentation which (amongst many other things) stated that
    "If the user needs better control over conversion, the user must request the
    data as a Raster and handle the conversion of the image data themselves."
    This made sense, so I took to decodeAsRaster(), only to find that I could
    not figure out how to carry out the desired conversion.
    Of course, I have looked into the documentation for BufferedImage, Raster,
    ColorModel, ColorSpace etc, but after a while I was lost. (Before I got lost
    I read that you can convert images with the help of methods like toRGB,
    toCIEXYZ.)
    I have a feeling that this is probably pretty simple if you just know how to
    do it, but I sure would need some directions here.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    You can either use the "Place" command from the main menu, under "File", or you can just open it, select the move tool "V", the click in the image and drag it to the other file's tab.
