How to track changes to Financial Reports

I am being asked by our auditors to propose a process where we monitor and document changes to our Hyperion Financial Reports used for P&Ls, Balance Sheets, etc. Is there a history kept anywhere of the modified date for reports? I know that the client gives the last modified date, but I need see if there is a way to systematically capture all of the modified dates. So far in looking at the different logs, I don't see anything.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill,
If this is 11.1.x ,then you could enable TRACE:32 for FR in logging.xml,this will record most of the activities done for FR.
Thx

  • How to track changes in a hyperion application for SOX control?

    Hello all,
    We have been working on identifying the best way on how to track changes in a hyperion application in regards to the SOX control.
    The following areas have been identified as the main areas of an application where the changes are to be tracked:
    Monthly data load from ODI
    Calculation of data
    Metadats change
    Formula edit
    Changes to reports
    Changes to security
    Can anybody please suggest the best ways to do this? Has anyone experienced this issue before?
    Somebody suggested that there is hyperion auditing available.
    Is there any other software that is available that can do this or just documenting the changes would be the best option?
    Please suggest. Toyr response would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Shared Services allows the auditing of provisioning and life-cycle management activities to track changes to security objects and the artifacts that are exported or imported using Lifecycle Management Utility.
    For Shared Services auditing, refer Page 129 of http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_security.pdf
    Planning Administrators can select aspects of the application for change tracking. For example, you can track changes to metadata, such as when users change a member property or add a currency. You can also track changes in data forms, business rules, workflow, users, access permissions, and so on.
    For Planning auditing, refer Page 56 of http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hp_admin.pdf

  • How to track changes on Infoprovider?

    Hi Gurus,
    Could you please provide the steps of how to track changes on Infoprovider? I had 4 Infocubes (belonging to the same info area) that contains compressed data - but now when I tried to display the data, all the cube are empty - no data were aechived.
    I would like to track any actions that were made on those cubes.
    Thanks

    thanks Kumar for helping me out here
    I tried RSD_CUBE_LOG_DELE function module - It came out "no logs found in the database"
    I tried tables RSDRDLOGHEADER and RSDDSTATDELE which provide me deletion informations like user name... but since we have partially archived those specific infoproviders in the same period of time where I think eveything was gone from cube, I am not able to related when and who the data that were not archived were deleted from Infocube
    Under manage Infocube --> archiving tab, all the created archiving request are only for certain dates (below 2006). I know that we had data above 2006.
    Kindly provide additional inputs.
    Thanks

  • Books not updating for changes to financial reports

    I have made some changes to financial reports which are contained in existing books. I have run the reports individually and the changes are correctly reflected. However, if I open the book containing the report it still shows the report as it existed before the changes. I have even deleted and re-added the relevant report into the book and it still makes no difference.
    Regards
    Katie

    Until and otherwise if anyone else has a suggestion,I would say apply the latest FR patch
    Patch 13024655: Patch Set Update: 11.1.1.3.519 for Oracle Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Financial Reporting
    And if still the issue persist,then open a Ticket with Oracle support for further troubleshooting.

  • How to track changes made in the ERD in oracle designer

    I want to track all changes made in my ERD in oracle 10g designer. Please suggest how to achieve it.
    use case: An ERD was approved in design phase. Few changes were made by development team and now in Implementation phase I need to track what all changes were made from say 3-Jan-12 to 3-Mar-2012
    Edited by: 909570 on Mar 5, 2012 1:14 PM
    To add here:
    Designer Version is 10.1.2.0.2.
    1. In my project versioning of ER is not being used so ER Version diff is not an option for me.
    2. In Reports, there are options for getting all entities, attributes which are created/modified in a period. But it seems it is not giving me correct results.
    Edited by: 909570 on Mar 5, 2012 1:14 PM

    Since versioning if off, there is no way to track changes.
    You can get a rough overview of possible changes by looking at the audit attributes (date created, date modified) in the properties palette, but that is already mentioned in your point 2.
    Basically, developers should comment what they added/modified.

  • Usage Tracking  of Hyperion Financial Reporting

    I'm on Version 11.1.2.
    can anyone tell me is there a way to track reports usage in Hyperion Financial Reporting?
    Thanks in Advance

    We are on 11.1.1.3 and we have a scheduled task that runs everyday to track FR Usage. I am not super technical and I am not the developer of this script, but it basically grabs the log file (I believe it is either FRReportSvr or FRUserLogin) loads it into Oracle and parse it. Then we report the outcome on Oracle Application Express (APEX). It basically shows how many people ran which report, when, how many times, etc. We also do ranking of report usage based on periods, so you can track which reports are being used, which report usage has been declining over time, how the newly developed reports have been doing, etc. It is pretty useful.
    Does it sound like something you would develop?

  • How do you change the a report datasource using B.O. XI release 2??

    Post Author: odgsmit
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    Is it possible to change the datasource associated with a report via web services consumer api's?  I have a report that has a default database(a), however, we would like to, at runtime, have the report to query a different database(b).  At the present time, trying to access the report while supplying it the new datasource information does not work with either the java nor the .net consumer api's.
    Does anyone know if this can be done?   If so, please provide the details of your success, so that I can try replicate the same procedure.
    I am using B.O. XI release 2.
    Thanks.

    I've got a similar problem:
    I'm attempting to follow the directions in the Upgrading and Migrating Guide for Leopard. The Mac has two hard drives in it. Batman contains the active server running 10.4.11. Magic is the hard drive that will run 10.5.2.
    Since I'm moving from one hard disk to another (as opposed to an entirely different Mac), things ought to be fairly easy. But not for me. ;(
    What I'm trying to do: Migrate the mail database. (I have managed to import users and groups; only the mail service will run on this machine.)
    Problem: I can't change the owner and group settings on the various files in the var/imap and var/spool/imap folders (for example, so that they are owned by system or _cyrus, with group wheel or mail and everyone set to read only).
    The owner and/or group often shows up as unknown (which is to be expected with the migration to a different hard drive). But how can I change these permissions?
    Or is there a way to use a command to copy them from one disk to another? I tried ditto, but didn't get the syntax right (the files were copied to the same level as the imap folder rather than within it) and now I have a bunch of files owned by nobody that I can't delete because I can't change the owner.
    TIA,

  • How to track changes when a contact updates contacts address section?

    I'm creating a workflow to create an integration event when a contact updates its contacts address section (number/street, address2, address3 city, state, zip).
    Record Type: Contact
    Trigger Event: When Modified record saved
    Workflow Rule Condition: None
    Action Type: Integration Event
    When I go to configure the workflow action, I don't see the address on the track changes list. How do I specifiy the address section to be tracked when it's modified?
    Thanks

    The best way would be to create a trigger in the database that would update the history table whenever the data was changed. The next best would be to use a stored procedure. I would not try to do this with server side scripting.

  • How to track changes

    Hi friends,
        I am a XI consultant. My query is regarding how to track the chages.I heard that CDHDR and CDPOS tables are used to store the information regarding the changes made to the objects/tables in SAP.My scenario is i have a table having few fields related to P.o and a flag indiacating Insert/Update/Delete, so upon the creation/upadate/deletion of a P.O(related to perticular WBS Element) i want the data to be  transfered into my table automatically.
       Is there any standard transaction available to do that....means i want to track all the P.Os under a perticular WBS element..
    If not Do we have to write a Abap program and use CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS,CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS functions to store the data into internal tables ?????
    Regards,
    Gowtham K.

    HI gowtham,
    Yes, u are right,
    we have to right some abap code.
    "CHANGE DOCUMENTS" in SAP Terminology
    1 The same thing which u are asking
    we had developed here. For Eg : Any change
    in the material master will be detected
    and a mail will be sent to the concerned
    employee.
    THIS WILL ALSO DETECT WHICH FILEDS HAVE CHANGED.
    IT CAN ALSO GIVE, The Old Value, And The New Value.
    2. This Mechanism is called CHANGE DOCUMENTS in
    SAP Terminology
    3. 2 Fuction Modules are Required.
    (They will fetch necessary data from CDHDR,CDPOS)
    CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS
    CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS
    4. The First FM gives list of all
    records ( with change no) which have changed.
    5. Loop at the above and the second FM will
    provide the details (old-val, new-val) for
    each record.
    6. While using 1st Fm, i used docclass as 'MATERIAL'.
    BCOS
    the concept of change documents is applicable
    to other type of documents also (depends upon
    customization)
    regards,
    amit m.

  • How to track changes for the config done directly in quality client-Reg

    Hi,
    In our system the landscape is Dev,Quality,Production.
    For some transactions we will do the config in dev and transport to other clients or maintain in each client manually.Eg QS41,CI41.
    In my case ,I have did the config in CI41 and transported to other clients.But someone user get in to CI41 in Quality client and did some changes. Now how to track the user Id through which the changes has been performed  in QA directly.
    Regards
    SB

    hi
    you can use SE09 for displaying the transport no where you can see all the request nos ,from there you can check
    also use the same transaction Cl41 do some changes like description ,then press the save button ,system will prompt you the previous saved Request No and make a note of it .cancel the request generation ,then you can trace them in SE09
    also check whether you can find any change documents is available
    regards

  • How to track changes to fields in a Module Pool Program

    Hi Experts,
    I have one requirement to track the changes to some fields used in the Program, The fields for tracking the changes will be maintained in a table T1, this will be changed dynamically. 
    There are many screens in the program and many fields in each screen.
    1. How to do the coding for tracking the changes, the code should track all the changes to the fields maintained in the table T1.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Baburaj

    Hi Baburaj,
    The table logging concept will helpful for this requirement.(Tcode: scu3 --> give  table name --> u can find changes for all fields).
    Make use of concept change documents (auditing purpose used) --> CDHDR,CDPOS tables.
    If you want to track changes to your own program, You need write some API to store the data.

  • How to track Changes done in planning book....by whom.....in DP planning

    Hi All,
    I want to track the changes done in Key figures in planning book ..........mostly by whom .......let me know how to track the same in APO DP planning book...........any std..........way..........like R/3...........pl reply.............your expert guidence will be  appreciated..........by rewarding the same..............Thanks...........
    Best Regards
    Sharad

    Hi,
    You would be able to tackle this partially by adding a new hidden key figure.
    Refer the example below;
    Kfig1. Stat forecast: Calculated using stat forecasting
    Kfig2. Adjusted forecast: user normally changes this
    Kfig3. Hidden copy of Adjusted forecast:
    Using macros copy 1st snap shot of stat forecast to Adjusted and Hidden. once adjustments are done, use Macro to compare Adjustments and Hidden copy of original values, or this can be a overnight batch job to generate alerts
    Hope this helps.
