How to Run Allocation in Outlooksoft Everest 4.2 or SAP BPC 5.1

Hello,
Currently we use OS Everest 4.2 and we are in the Process of installing SAP BPC 5.1. We haven't used OS or BPC for allocation. I am trying to find a document that helps us guide through the process of creating a Allocation rules / formulas.
We found a Allocation Manual in Old Outlooksoft Support site and tried using it but it doesn't work or may be I am doing something wrong.
This is a Sample Allocation formula that we were just trying to see if it works.
*RUNALLOCATION
*FACTOR=USING/100
*DIM ACCOUNTS WHAT=AMOUNT; WHERE=<<<; USING = COUNT
*DIM ENTITY WHAT=EAST; WHERE=EAST;USING<>EAST
*ENDALLOCATION
*COMMIT
It gives us an error shown below when validating the Logic: shown below
Update Excel file to Server
Getting formulas
Creating LGF file
Validating logic
*ValidateFormula: Invalid instruction: RUNALLOCATION
Error occured
If you have any documents that will show the step by step instructions on how ALLOCATION works and how to implement, please send it. I didn't find any thing in the helpfile. Its very difficult to figure out without any documentation.
I would appreciate any help.. Thanks a lot !!!

First of all, I am feeling for you. It is very hard situation that thousand of users has own local "MyDocument" folder in local PC.
Folder structure between 5.1 and 4.2 is almost identical. Only difference is name of folder in My Documents. It was "Everest" in 4.2 but "OutlookSoft" in 5.1.
And there is couple more differences but it is going to recover automatically. Something like dimension cache, appinfo archive.
So, I like to suggest rename current "Everest" to "OutlookSoft" in My Documents. And do some test. I think biggest issue of here is report functionality between two versions.
At least, simple rename procedure is much easier than copy all reports to correct path.
I'm praying for your luck.

How to Run Operating System Command Before/After Message Processing SAP PI

Hi,
We are trying to execute multiple commands via "Operating System Command Before/After Message Processing".
When we use single command say for example cp or mv (copy or move) the commands get executed fine.
eg: cp %F /var/opt/data/outbound/Test/Dummy.txt
/this works fine/
when we club commands together or try to redirect the outputs of commands, none of the commands get executed.
eg:
cp %F /var/opt/data/outbound/Test/Dummy.txt ; rm %F
or
wc -l %F > /var/opt/data/outbound/Test/Dummy.txt
Is it possible to execute multiple commands or redirect the output of commands without using a shell script? The PI server we are working on iis hosted on UNIX environment.

Hi Harleen,
try like this
cp %F /var/opt/data/outbound/Test/Dummy.txt ; rm %F
instead of semicolon try this
(1) &
command1 & command2
Execute Command1 and then execute Command2
(2) &&
command1 && command2
Runs the command2 only when command1 doesn't Complete successfully
(3) ||
command1 || command2
Runs the second command if the first command had an error
(4) ()
(command1 || command2) || (command3 & command4)
Defines the order in which commands are to be executed

Hi DS,
If I understand your question correctly,you want to execute different version of TCD and SAPGUI continously,then please find the steps below:
1)Create a new script.
2)Call the individual scripts created in TCD and SAPGUI in the new script using REF command in the pattern you want to execute.
3)eCATT will automatically choose the relevant version automatically suitable for the system.
4)Maintain the input and output paramters in the main script.
5)Paramterize the input and output values.
6)Once the script is without errors,you can execute the scripts and they run continously.
Hope this answers your query.

How to run a top down allocation within BPC NW

Hi,
I tried to reply the "How to run a top down allocation within BPC NW" i've found in the SDN download area. I made step by step the same of the paper i check several times all the Scripts the package, the process chain, but i haven't found any mistake.
I made from the beginning in another appset, copy from appshell
But my result isn't the same as in the paper. My final template is empty without data.
After running the package (it ends without error) i check the detail and in the formula log
in some lines it says things like "No records generated" or "records queried out".
I don't know what happens.
Anybody who had tried before, could help me?
Thanx in advance

Hi,
Based on the Entity dimension sheet provided in the How to guide, the allocation should be done in the ratio of 15:70:5:10. If you have maintained the same and the amount you want to allocate is 50000, then the allocation will be 7500, 35000, 2500, and 5000.
Hope this helps.

Using a filter in RUN Allocation

Does anyone know how to use a filter in the WHAT, WHERE clauses in RUN Allocation?
I need to use something like WHERE=%STAT_ACCTS% AND [GROUP]<>"PL" but it dosen't work.
On the contrary, is there a way to get the basemembers of a parent ID based on a filter?
I could also use something like *XDIM_MEMBERSET ACCOUNT =BAS(STACCTS) AND [GROUP]<>"PL" but XDIM_MEMBERSET does not support conditions.
Thanks in advance for help!

Thanks for the replies... but my problem is still not solved... if either of the following could work that would solve this:
a) have my xdim_memberset set to only those products which meet the condition [LEVEL]="seg" and are the bas members of the product i pick from the hierarchy. For this i would need a select statement which works like:
*SELECT(%SKU%,[ID],"PRODUCT","[PARENTH1]=%PRODUCT_SET% AND [LEVEL]='SEG' ")
OR
b) a way to create a variable using xdim_filter that i can use anywhere else in my code
c) put a condition in the WHERE clause of the allocation script so i could use something like:
DIM PRODUCT WHAT=something; WHERE=BAS(%PRODUCT_SET%) AND [LEVEL]="SEG";
but none of the above options are working

How to run the job using DBMS_SCHEDULER

How to run the job using DBMS_SCHEDULER
pleas give some sample Iam very new to DBMS_SCHEDULER

Hi
DBMS_SCHEDULER
In Oracle 10g the DBMS_JOB package is replaced by the DBMS_SCHEDULER package. The DBMS_JOB package is now depricated and in Oracle 10g it's only provided for backward compatibility. From Oracle 10g the DBMS_JOB package should not be used any more, because is could not exist in a future version of Oracle.
With DBMS_SCHEDULER Oracle procedures and functions can be executed. Also binary and shell-scripts can be scheduled.
Rights
If you have DBA rights you can do all the scheduling. For administering job scheduling you need the privileges belonging to the SCHEDULER_ADMIN role. To create and run jobs in your own schedule you need the 'CREATE JOB' privilege.
With DBMS_JOB you needed to set an initialization parameter to start a job coordinator background process. With Oracle 10g DBMS_SCHEDULER this is not needed any more.
If you want to user resource plans and/or consumer groups you need to set a system parameter:
ALTER SYSTEM SET RESOURCE_LIMIT = TRUE;
Baisc Parts: Job
A job instructs the scheduler to run a specific program at a specific time on a specific date.
Programs
A program contains the code (or reference to the code ) that needs to be run to accomplish a task. It also contains parameters that should be passed to the program at runtime. And it?s an independent object that can referenced by many jobs
Schedules
A schedule contains a start date, an optional end date, and repeat interval with these elements; an execution schedule can be calculated.
Windows
A window identifies a recurring block of time during which a specific resource plan should be enabled to govern resource allocation for the database.
Job groups
A job group is a logical method of classifying jobs with similar characteristics.
Window groups
A window groups is a logical method of grouping windows. They simplify the management of windows by allowing the members of the group to be manipulated as one object. Unlike job groups, window groups don?t set default characteristics for windows that belong to the group.
Using Job Scheduler
SQL> drop table emp;
SQL> Create table emp (eno int, esal int);
SQL > begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job (
job_name => 'test_abc',
job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action => 'update emp set esal=esal*10 ;',
start_date => SYSDATE,
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY; INTERVAL=10',
comments => 'Iam tesing scheduler');
end;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Verification
To verify that job was created, the DBA | ALL | USER_SCHEDULER_JOBS view can be queried.
SQL> select job_name,enabled,run_count from user_scheduler_jobs;
JOB_NAME ENABL RUN_COUNT
TEST_abc FALSE 0
Note :
As you can see from the results, the job was indeed created, but is not enabled because the ENABLE attribute was not explicitly set in the CREATE_JOB procedure.
Run your job
SQL> begin
2 dbms_scheduler.run_job('TEST_abc',TRUE);
3* end;
SQL> /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> select job_name,enabled,run_count from user_scheduler_jobs;
JOB_NAME ENABL RUN_COUNT
TEST_ABC FALSE 0
Copying Jobs
SQL> begin
2 dbms_scheduler.copy_job('TEST_ABC','NEW_TEST_ABC');
3 END;
4 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. Hope it will help you upto some level..!!

Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

Hi
Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

I know this doesn't help you much, but, I think you have to see if your Mac pro does audio out via HDMI. I don't even know if mine does via DVI. I think it may have to do with the adapter. Try going into Audio MIDI and setting the digital out to multichannel
and using the toslink cable for now. Lemme see...apparently DVI does not carry audio at all. Hm. apparently monoprice could be helpful? If I understand what you're saying correctly: you want to take DVI and multichannel audio via the Toslink and have it all go out over HDMI, right? Whooo..... amazon...looks like it's about $100http://www.amazon.com/Audio-SPDIF-Toslink-Converter-Adapter/dp/B0015YYOQQ
just a shot in the dark
I'm probably wrong....or not

How to run report in background, save output to word or excel

Hello all,
I have a huge report that needs to be run in background and I need the report in word. When running in Dialog it takes too long and SAP times out. How do you get something to run in background and have the output in excel. I know you can go into SM37, find the spool and then forward the spool request to a local file, is there an easier way to do it? Maybe setting up some kind of to text printer since the background job always asks for the output printer. Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot,

Though you can initiate the binary from your client side but for the file creation, there is no other way but to store it on the server side. So your best bet would be to get some space free on the server side of yours.
