How to Build Attribute Dimension Dynamically & Load with LCM?

Hi, I'm trying to modify the existing outline at cilent's site. For some reason, when I pulled the outline with extractor, it didnt come out in the format that is compatible with Outline Load Utility. I was told to use LCM so I may still load with minimal to no modification to the existing structure of outline.
So can I build dimensions dynamically in EXCEL then load with LCM and push to Planning?

The log came back with many unrecognized headers in the outline. I spoke to Oracle Support many times, and they said that the format of our outline is improper for Outline Load Utility to read.
Since the outline has already been incorporated, we are not allowed to many any significant changes. That is why we were advised to use LCM.
I tried to use a sample of one of the existing attribute dimensions in XML as the base and build the new attribute but it failed. I would appreciate if you can provide steps by steps resources to show how to add new attributes to the existing outline.

  • How to build an EVDRE input schedule with more than 3 dimensions?

    Hello experts,
    can anybody tell me, how to build an EVDRE input schedule with more than 3 dimensions?
    How must the parameter configuration (expansion 1, 2, 3, 4) and range configuration (ColKeyRange, RowKeyRange, PageKeyRange) look like? If anybody could post an example, how such an input schedule could look like, I would be very thankful.
    Best regards,
    Stefan

    Well, posting an example might be quite difficult.  But there is no right-or-wrong approach.  Since Inputs are made at the lowest or base level members of all dimensions, the key is to determine which dimensions you want in your expansion, to be able to gather the input.  Otherwise, you may only need a couple of nested dimensions.  But if you open BPC for Excel, open a blank workbook and in any cell type [ =EVDRE() ], then press refresh, the DRE wizard will allow you to select your nested row and columns for the report, and then build a basic report for your foundation. 
    I personally like to NOT expand my columns, and only nest 2 or 3 row member sets, depending on the details we need for input.  SOmetimes, the whole input schedule is without any expansions, and just refreshes based on the CV changes, such as entity, category, time etc.
    If you need more details, keep posting what you are trying to accomplish and we will try to help.

  • How to build a full dynamic WHERE expression in ADFBC Faces View Object ?

    Dear Steve
    >
    I need an example about how to build a full dynamic WHERE expression in
    ADFBC View Object
    In UIX I known to do that, but i don't kwown how to do in ADFBC Faces.
    please help me to see an example.
    thanks
    Juan Carlos

    You write an AM level method to set the where clause and you expose it as a client method. (just like you did before)
    Then you can drag this method onto a page as a button and then pressing on this button will execute the method.
    If you want this to be done automatically without pressing a button - you go to the pagedef.xml file for your page and add a methodInvocation binding to that AM method, and then add a method executable to the executables section calling this method.

    Hi,
    Your error "ESB_OUTERROR2_ILLEGALDATATYPE and 64 = ESB_OUTERROR2_ATTRDIMNOTASSOCIATED." indicates problem with attribute dimension association
    kindly check is there any duplicate member in attribute dimension.
    or same attribute dimension is associated with some other dimensions

  • Loading Planning attribute dimension alternate hierarchies with ODI

    Does anyone know how to load an attribute dimension alternate hierarchy via an ODI interface? I'm assuming that alternate hierarchies are allowed in attribute dimensions?
    Edited by: jayfin on Mar 28, 2011 5:59 PM

    If you are talking about created a shared hieararchy then no this is not possible as you shouldn't be able to do it in planning.
    If it is just another hierarchy in your attribute dimension then you should be able to load parent/child members to build it using ODI.

    Could you get away with an underscore? I think that works. You will have _<100 which is not ideal but might be worth a try.
    Failing that, go with GT and LT. <--This is incredibly lame, but sometimes users go for the "computer is too stupid" answer. Which in this case, is sort of true.

  • Attribute Dimension and association with multi level base members

    I am trying to associate attribute dimension members with base members that can be at different levels (level 0 or level 1 or level 2 ).
    First question - Is that possible ? Second how do I do that.
    I am building the dimensions(base and attribute) members first and then trying to associate.
    I get the following error message :
    Base member (xxxxxxx) association level does not match base dimension association level
    The base dimension looks like
    Supplier
    |-----Supplier Group
    |---------Supplier ID (Associate this member to an attrbiute dimension)
    |---------------Invoice Number
    Sometimes the Supplier ID may not have a Supplier Group or an Invoice Number (hence it can be a level 0 or directly under the dimension name - Gen2)
    The Attrbute Dimension looks like
    Supplier Value
    |---High
    |---Medium
    |---Low
    Edited by: 816875 on 30-Nov-2010 07:01

    First to clarify, base mambers by definition would all be level 0 members, but to your question, attributres can only be associated to a single level within a dimension. your problem is sometimes the supplier is level 0 and other times level 1. This can't be done.

  • How can you display a dynamically loaded vi to the Web Server?

    I am working with LabView 6.1 and the Web Server. I can call a subvi and have it display on a remote machine using a browser with no problem. But what I would like to do is dynamically load and run a vi and have it display on the remote computer using only a browser. I have tried a small example of a front panel that invokes the run vi method (and fp.open prop) on another vi when a button is pressed, but the invoked vi is displayed only on the local computer. Is there any way of viewing dynamically loaded vi's on a remote machine without having a copy of LabView running on it?

    If i understand your question correctly, you want to monitor vi that are dynamically loaded on a remote machine without having LabVIEW installed on the machine from witch you want the monitor. I don't think it's possible how ever a good reference book would be Internet applications in LabVIEW. You can find it on BARNES&NOBLE.

    there are two problems with building sql directly.
    1. it allows sql injection

  • How to manage variables in dynamically loaded sequence

    Variables in dynamically loaded sequence files are not managed properly.
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Unpack attached zip file
    2. Launch TestStand Sequence Editor
    3. Add directory of unpacked files to Search Directories list (Configure>>Search Directories...)
    4. Set Station Model to unpacked "UpdatedSequentialModel.seq" (Configure>>Station Options...; Model tab in TestStand Sequence Editor)
    5. Load unpacked "A.seq" sequence file  (File>>Open Sequence File.. in TestStand Sequence Editor)
    6. Check "Execute>>Break on First Step"
    7. Run "Test UUTs"
    8. When execution breaks, note the following:
    a) "Locals.SomeVar" contain "The value, which stored in the file" instead of "New value"
    b) Although actual running sequence file is "B.seq", the tab title is: "Test UUTs - A.seq"
    Try also:
    1. To examine "RunState.ProcessModelClient.Data.Seq["MainSequence"].Locals.SomeVar" variable, when breakpoint is set at <End Group> of PreUUT of Station Model "UpdatedSequentialModel.seq".
    2. Open unpacked "B.seq" sequence file in TestStand Sequence Editor and repeat all the checks
    Additional info:
    1. I use TestStand 4.0.0.326
    2. Attached Process Model file "UpdatedSequentialModel.seq" is original "SequentialModel.seq" with only one step "UpdateClientSequence" added in PreUUT.
    3. The source of mentioned above new added step is attached as well.

    Kristen,
    "Why I architect "My application" this way?"
    "My application" is intended to serve significant amount of test stations and products. Each product is represented by its own test sequence file.
    "My application" and client sequence files are independent products. Client sequence files are responsible for products testing, while "My application" is responsible for common tasks.
    Process Model is most pertinent place to perform common tasks (common for all test stations and for all products).
    Providing supplemental sequence file just to perform SequenceCall, is completely unnatural.
    Moreover, if using SequenceCall, I see no way to update local variables of new launched sequence file, before it starts to execute (step 5 of "Message 3 of 4").
    Thus, the solution, which you propose, cannot satisfy our factory requirements.
    Back to my questions.
    1. Is something wrong with the way, which I implement the task?
    2. Is it possible to implement my task using NI TestStand?
    3. Is my problem caused by incorrect usage of "edit copy" and "runtime copy" of the variable? TestStandReferenceManual says:
    "Built-in properties of steps and sequences are flagged to be shared at run time. For these shared properties, TestStand does not create a unique run-time copy, but instead references the edit-time copy. Any changes to the run-time reference of these built-in properties edits the original Step or Sequence object in the sequence file."
    The variable, which we discussing is not Built-in property.
    4. If previous correct, how differentiate between "edit copy" and "runtime copy" of the variable?
    thanks.misha

  • How to build a dimension witch has a column with sdo_geometry type

    hello everybody;
    i'm working with owb 11g, i have designed my dimension and also my fact table.
    in the implemnation, i have created (designed, depolyed and populated) successfully some dimenstions without any problems.
    But when i arrived to create a spatial dimension which contains a column with sdo_geometry type, i have the following error;
    Error: ORA-30373: object data types are not supported in this context
    So how can y bypasse this problem.
    Is there any tutorial to "how create spatial dimension with owb"?
    i have googled for a long time but no solution up to now
    any help will be welcome
    Thank you at advance

    Sans,
    I am no Apex expert, but with a situation as "complex" as yours, have you thought about creating a VIEW that joins these 7/8 tables, placing an INSTEAD OF trigger on that view to do all the business logic in the database, and base your application on the view?
    This is the "thick-database" approach that has been gaining momentum of late. The idea is to put your business logic in the database wherever possible, and let the application (Form, Apex, J2EE, whatever) concentrate on UI issues,

  • How to build global dimension?

    hi,..
    I have 2 Oracle OLAP in 2 different computers. Each of this computers have complete OLAP object (Cube,dimension,level,hierarchy) works.
    I want to build a global dimension containing dimensions in both computers. for example, store dimension in computer1 is combined with store dimension in computer2. the objective is to view the data in both separate dimension within one crosstab.
    is it possible to do this? can anyone show me how?
    thanks in advance.

    Your mistake is in autoindexing the result of the Read From Spreadsheet into the 3D array. Instead, use a shift register and Build array to append the results of each read to the prior one. If you transpose the Read From Spreadsheet result, each new file will be added as new rows. Then when all have been read, do another transpose to get them back into columns.

  • How to build database driven mobile apps with dreamweaver and phonegap?

    Hi all,
    I'm searching the easiest way to implement a simple database in my app.
    I can build application with php/mysql in seconds with dreamweaver.
    But how can I do something similar with dreamweaver cs5.5 and phonegap for mobile apps?
    I would like to create a little app that pulls data from a mysql database on my webserver.
    But it seems that dreamweaver/phonegap/jquery mobile work only with HTML files.
    I searched the whole web for a day now but I haven't found anything easy to recreate.
    Is there a tutorial that explains the basic of database for mobile in dreamweaver?
    It seems a bit limitating to use dreamweaver to build only static/useless apps....
    What about forms and data validation?
    TIA for any help.
    tony

    @idesdema: Have a look at this tutorial: http://www.codeforest.net/jquery-mobile-advanced-tutorial-rss-reader-app
    It includes a demo as well as a download link to the source files.
    Also, if you want to take it a step further, you can create & manage a 'local database' without having to access anything remotely - basically handling everything at the client's end.
    There's a tutorial for that here: http://the-jquerymobile-tutorial.org/jquery-mobile-tutorial-CH22.php

  • How to filter 2 Dimension on DS with script code

    Hi experts,
    coming from a discussion:
    Not possible to filter for more than one dimension in Datasource script filter method?
    I found necessary to open new discussion.
    I have the following scenario:
    I got a pie chart showing indicator for one dimension coming from BW DS.
    I have DS initialized with:
    On Column
    Indicator -> Oportunity_mesure
    On Row
    Dimension -> type_dimension
    In the dashboard, I need to filter this pie chart with Year/month and Representation Dimensions.
    so on startup I script the follow:
    DS1.setFilter("0CALLMONTH",varMonth);
    DS1.setFilter("ZCREP",varRepr);
    What I'm seen is that I don't get both filters on chart values. Is there a limitation? how can I solve it?
    Thank you very much

    Hi Oscar,
    Your scenario is definitely possible and both filters should be retained.  Can you share the code where you populate the value of the variables varMonth and varRepr?
    Thanks,
