Hyperion Financial Reports books issue

I am trying to generate books using Hyperion Financial reporting in Excel. But, I do see only PDF or HTML options to create books. Is there any other way we can create HFR book in excel with separate tabs for dimenions members in the Page drop down? Please advise.

There isn't an option to create Hyperion Books in Excel, however you can create a Smart View report in Excel and use the cascade feature, which prompts the user to create the dimension to use (it must be in the POV).
This will create a tab per member selected for the report, it will even duplicate charts if you have created them in the base Excel report.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Iain

Hyperion Financial Reporting Configuration Issue

Hi,
I installed Hyperion Financial Reporting version 11.1.1.1.0 where the Hyperion Web Analysis and Workspace installed in the same server.
I am able to open the Financial Reporting Studio but not able to open HFR through Workspace.
Let me explain you what I did exactly:
1) Installed Reporting and Analysis( HFR)
2) Ran the COnfiguration Utility and configured the Reporting And Analysis Server
3) Checked in Preference to see if Reporting And Analysis is present in the left side, I could see Web Analysis and can create Reports in it.
Then tried to access HFR through Workspace but not working. I updated Context.properties and set reports to Y and then recycled the services but still no luck..
Please correct me if I missed anything to configure the HFR.
Thanks in advance for your help..

This issue was resolved after stopping the Workspace services and ran the Configuration Utility. Now, able to view financial reporting and web analysis reports in workspace...

Hyperion Financial Reporting Studio Issue

Hi,
We have an issue with Hyperion FRS, where the users other than Admin are not able to see the reports. When they try to open the reports the following error is displayed:
"1012: Report contains an invalid grid. The following dimension(s) could not be found: <Dimension Names>"
We refreshed the security and also synchronized Essbase Security with shared services. When this did not remove the error, we restarted all the Hyperion services, but there was no change in the error.
When an Admin creates a report using FRS he/she is able to see all the dimensions, but when a provisioned user logs in to create a report, none of the dimensions are visible.
Any help to solve the issue is much appreciated.
Thanks
Priyanka

Good Morning Mars,
I had looked at that document and even tried changing the data base connection. I also created a new Data base connection and assigned it to the reports but still it gives me the same error.
This problem is only with one plan type in the application and the other plan types work without any issues.
On further investigation we have noticed that the issue is with connecting to the Plan Type via Essbase connections. We tried to create a report in Web Analysis studio using an Essbase Connection to the plan type but even there we couldn't see the dimensions.
Thanks,
Priyanka

Hyperion Financial Reporting Books

I am creating books in Workspace with FR reports. The Book Setup of Collate by Reports or Member Selection, will not save when Member Selection is picked. It will only save with Collate by Reports. I believe this is a known bug, but I cannot find the work around. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

This is a known bug (internal) and fix is planned in the later version 11.1.2.4.x.
You could raise a service request with Oracle to get further information.
Thanks,

Hyperion financial reports issue

I have problem but with Months and years in Hyperion Financial Reports.
if i run the reports for JAN 2007 it has to show for previous 12 months
in my case the year is not changing to 2006 for DEC i'm using Relative member -1 function
can please let me know how to slove this issue .Ts is very urgent.

try to do it in 2 columns ( let say you have selected 'Jul' and '2007'
First column
2006 - x to Dec
2007 - Jan to y
where x = prev month
y= current month
there may be problem while selecting Dec 2007 cot in that case you will have to show only 2007 months. i think that you can do based on some conditional suppression
hope this helps.

5200 : Error in executing query -- Hyperion Financial Reporting

Problem in accessing the Hyperion Financial Reports.User is having full access and able to access all the folders except one folder(Legal Folder reports). We are getting 5200: Error Executing the query error. Recently we have upgraded Hyperion to 11.1.1.3 version . Before upgrade user is not facing the problem. After Upgrade user is getting these errors while accessing the reports. we did research and found in "Error 5200: Error Executing Query" When Viewing Financial Reporting (FR) Reports". Is this error is relevant to the Information provided in Metalink and also can you please tell us is there any impact on doing the solution provided in the below. Why is this error is coming is any preferences needs to be changed.Please help us on this.
Error Description:
5200: Error executing query
Servername/ApplicationName/DatabaseName/Error(1007090) Unknown Member name [Current Point of view for years] in Outline Query
Doc ID 1107142.1:
Possible Cause 1:
If members have recently been added, moved, or deleted from the data source, Essbase, HFM, or Planning, the existing User POV records become out of sync.
The User Point of View record uses indexing to identify the member. If the index changes because of changes in the outline, the User Point of View record no longer points to the correct location in the outline.
To resolve the issue, you need to run the ManageUserPOV utility on a Windows server that has the Financial Reporting Reports Server, or in a Unix or Linux environment, has the Financial Reporting Print Server installed.
You will need to provide a BIPlus Global Administrator user ID and password to run the utility.
The utility will provide the correct syntax to run the command.
1. In \Hyperion\products\biplus\bin\ManageUserPOV.properties, specify the following parameters:
a. ReportServer
b. DatasourceUser
c. DatasourcePassword
d. User
e. Datasource (You can find the datasource in Workspace under Tools>Database Connection Manager in the Name column.)
2. From the command line, cd to Hyerion\products\biplus\bin
3. Type in "ManageUserPOV" without the quotes. The executable will read the parameters previously set in the ManageUserPOV.properties file.
Thanks,
Naresh.

Hyperion Financial Reporting - #missing Suppression causing report not to generate 11.1.2.2

Hi,
We recently went live with an implementation of 11.1.2.2 and have build large report suite in Financial reporting to accompany the release. Over the weekend we patched up to 11.1.2.2.305.4195 however we have began to notice our FR reports are failing to generate and hang at a white screen for both HTML and PDF views.
After a little digging it looks that the issue is with any report that has suppress #missing on rows. If I take this suppression off the report will generate successfully. This is not an acceptable solution for us as many of our reports will run into 100's/1000's of lines.
Has anyone else experienced this recently and if so, are there any other fixes to be suggested. I'm assuming this is a bug introduced with 11.1.2.2.305
For reference we are also running the following versions.
Reporting and Analysis Framework - 11.1.2.2.000.998
Oracle® Hyperion Financial Reporting, Fusion Edition - 11.1.2.2.0.0387
Graham

Hi, We have but awaiting a response. Interestingly I've did some testing and suppression does work if I go via the advanced suppression option which although a inconvenient to rework the reports does give a solution.
Additionally I've noticed a couple of other issues with suppression across the application so looks to be more widespread.
1) Webforms are no longer suppression #missing both in the application and also when downloaded to Excel.
2) Intercompany reports no longer suppress when we set tolerance to say 10% etc.
Each in itself can be worked around but annoying non the less.

Error 500 Internal Server Error" When Generating Hyperion Financial Reports in PDF Format

We are unable to open pdf reports in Workspace with the following error. It was all working fine and doesn't work now for unknown reasons.
Error 500 Internal Server Error" When Generating Hyperion Financial Reports in PDF Format
We are on 11.1.2.1 environment. Ghost Script 8.54 and Java heap settings xms256m and xmx512m.
Please advice.

hello,
just to clarify
a) the parameter is named DESFORMAT not :DESFORMAT, there is
no : in front of the name, if you submit it via URL !
b) there are some issues with acrobat5 and IE but those are not

Overflow error in Hyperion Financial Reports

Hi All,
I'm using Hyperion Financial Reporting Studio version 9.3.1. Recently we are facing few issues with FR. When we try to copy a column, we are getting the "overflow" error. Can someone help on how to resolve this issue ?
FYI. The no. of Rows in the Report are approx. 3000 and columns around 20. Pls. help
Thanks,
PVR

Hi John,
The no. of rows in the Report are (Design mode) approx. 1700. When we run the report, the total no. of rows showing is around 3000. The no. of columns, rows cause the overflow issue ?
How we can clear the buffer ? We Restarted the server also, but no luck. The same error appearing
Thanks,
PVR

Hyperion Financia reporting ..Conditional Suppression

We have user POV as Scenario in financial reporting. User can select Current budget or Next budget as scenarios. If the selected budget is current, then report should display years in column as FY07, FY08, FY09, FY10, and FY11. If the selected budget is next, then report should display years in column as FY08, FY09, FY10,FY11,FY12. How do we achieve this in Hyperion Financial reporting 9.2? Thanks, Manohar Anchan 

Thanks a lot for your suggestion.It worked except for some formatting issue .I wanted every month to be in seperate column.As far as Current variable being set to Dec is concerned , I need to figure that out.Atlesat I got some lead to start with......... Thanks, Mnaohar Anchan

Cell Text Annotations of Hyperion Planning on Hyperion Financial Reporting

Hello,
There is a business requirement to show Cell text entered as annotation on each cells in data form to be reported using Hyperion Financial Reporting.
Also there is a case of some of the data types being text. Some of the forms also have supporting details.
Now I want to check how easy or difficult is it to report from Hyperion Planning V11.1.2 for the above mentioned.
Are there any noticeable performance issues?
Is it possible to report the cell text annotations , Supporting details & Datatype 'Text' from data form on Financial Report?
Thanks in advance,
XX

I haven't used the text data type, however I have done quite a bit of reporting on supporting detail. All you have to do is use a Hyperion Planning data source instead of an Essbase data source. (and specify on the report to show supporting detail). In general, Hyperion Planning data sources are slightly slower than Essbase data sources. How much slower depends on a lot of factors, but supporting detail can certainly slow things down.
One key limitation with reports that display this type of data is that it doesn't "roll up" the hierarchies. Your report has to be at the same level (in all dimensions) where the supporting detail was entered. So you can't pick an upper level Entity and show all of the supporting detail for it's descendants unless your report also includes the descendants. I understand why this limitation exists, but I routinely have clients that would like this functionality. (For Example - Show me all of the supporting details for the entire plan.)

Comparing strings in IfThen() structure of Hyperion Financial Reporting

Can we compare current value of a dimension with a string in the IfThen() structure in hyperion financial reporting tool? I have not been able to carry out the same successfully. Also, I need to get value from a partcular cell to use in IfThen() condition but it takes only row number and not a cell (e.g. IfThen([1]=0,1,2) and not IfThen([1,B]=0,1,2)).
Is there any way in which we can solve these issues?
Regards

Hyperion Financial Reporting: Trial Balance Report

Hi All,
I am a beginner in Hyperion Financial Reporting. I am trying to create a report for Trial Balance accounts.
The report should have the all the accounts in the rows and two columns with DEBIT and CREDIT without any other dimensions in the columns.
I could not setup this grid because we need to have a dimension in the column. It is fine for me to have Period dimension or something like that. But the point is, I dont know how to retrieve the Debit / Credit in two columns.
I thought a lot to see if we can do this with sign of the data or the type of the accounts. But could not get an idea.
Does this require any customization in FR? Is there anyway to achieve this?
                                   Debit     Credit
Account 1                    1000
Account 2                                   1000
Account 3                    1000
Account 4                                   1000
Variance                         0               0

Hi,
Let me understand your issue here. You have Trial balance report which has 2 column: Debit and Credit. What connection do you have ? Is it Planning, HFM or other sources ? Normally, when you are using dimension, you should have another dimension, apart from Account that consist of Debit and Credit, which you can call during reporting design. The only requirement when you build a standard reporting with FR or Smartview is you need to place 1 dimension in row and 1 dimension in column. If you are using Hyperion, such as Planning and HFM, you should have more than 1 dimension.
If you don't store any Debit/Credit data, then you won't be able to get that. As far as I know, this Debit/Credit exist in Trial balance report, which is an extraction from GL. When FDM or other ETL tool pushes this data as a base data for HFM, the Debit/Credit data will be translated as plus/minus data in HFM. Say, Cash in TB closing should be in Credit. In HFM, this cash displays in positive value. Otherwise, if Cash in TB closing is in Debit, then in HFM, this should be negative. But this rules will apply differently to other accounts.
I hope this help.
Regards,
Anna

Hyperion Financial Reporting - Export to Excel converting Data to Text

We are using Hyperion Financial Reporting 11.1.2.2 with Hyperion Workspace 11.1.2.2 reporting on an ASO Essbase cube version 11.1.2.2.
When we export a report to Excel any data values that are displayed in the report with a negative ('-', '()', etc.) sign come into Excel as a text value. The cell has the green flag and the single quote in it denoting this a text field. The format is listed as 'Custom'. Updating the format does not remove the single quote.
The same result is happening if we display the natural sign in the report or if we flip the sign in the report. This DOES NOT happen when choosing the export query ready, only when using the File -> Export -> Excel.
Does anyone know if there is a hot fix or service pack or configuration to resolve this? How about a work around?
I thought I remember this happening in 9.2 and being resolved in 9.3. We have recently upgraded from 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.2 and the issue is happening again.
The users would like to export the formatted report to Excel and be able to interact with the data cells as numbers.

The issue is reported as a bug. Installing patch 14625370 (11.1.2.2.302) and/or 16088101 (11.1.2.2.303) should fix the problem.
