Where can I download a trial version of Hyperion Planning and essbase?

I am new to Hyperion and want to train in it . Where can I download a trial version of Hyperion Planning and essbase?

Edeliver is where you go to download any of Oracle products. They are not trial versions. They are full versions. The license that you must agree to inorder to download them are for development and self-educational purposes only.
The main site is
https://edelivery.oracle.com/
From there you pick your language, identify yourself, and agree to the license agreement. Then, you select the product pack and OS of host system. Then, select the product you want to download. The products are splitup by component or modules. You must download everything you need. Foundation, Essbase, Planning, and Reporting and Analysis if you are going to do any reports.
Product pack - Choose Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System
OS - I use a 64bit OS, but choose the right one that you will be installing on.
Then choose,
Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (*11.1.2.0.0*) Media Pack for the OS you choose
Once you have downloaded the required packs, unzip them all into one folder. Merge the folders together and copy and replace all files. Put a check mark in the box that asks to perform this for other conflicts.
Once you have all packs unzipped, run InstallTool.cmd
The documentation zip file can be downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/epm/documentation/epm-096302.html
Hope this helps.

Cannot obtain the connection from hyperion planning to Essbase

Hi,
Does anyone is familiar with following problem:
When I try for example create a new data form and than want to add member for a dimention the following error is displayed: Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator.
My Essbase is running and Eas is running as well.
Will be gratefull for any tips.
cheers,

Hi,
Has any of the essbase information such as server or account details changed since you created the datasource connection for the planning application.
If it has you will need to edit the datasource and enter the new details and restart planning.
Cheers

Com.hyperion.planning.olap.Essbase.exception 101960

Received the following error message when trying to refresh database action for planning application. Searched for this error message, but was not able to find any info.
Dave

never mind. Problem resolved. Issue result of a new dimension that was created that was marked as dense vs sparse when it was created. I am guessing there may have been some type of memory issue as a result.

Creating Hyperion Planning Data Server using SDK

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to create a Data Server in Hyperion Planning Technology using ODI SDK...if the code for finding ORACLE technology is
OdiTechnology oracleTechnology = ((IOdiTechnologyFinder) odiInstance
+.getTransactionalEntityManager().getFinder(+
OdiTechnology.class)).findByCode("ORACLE");
Then what would be the findByCode() value for Hyperion Planning and Essbase ?.. I have been trying many combinations but nothing seems to work
Thanks in advance,
NJ

Hi NJ,
You can find the Code of your technology if you double click the technology in the topology.
Hyperion Planning : HYPERION_PLANNING
Hyperion Essbase : HYPERION_ESSBASE
Hope it helps.

Hyperion Planning Plus

Hi people!
I need some clarification about hyperion planning package.
My contract says: "Hyperion Planning Plus".
My question is which produts/applications comes with it? I know I really need Workspace, Essbase, ODI but are they include or I need to buy separately????
Thanks in advance.

For your satisfaction, you should clarify this with your account Rep.
However, from my understanding (based on similar feedback earlier from a rep) Smartview, ODI, Financial Reporting studio, Workspace are bundled with Hyperion Planning. Essbase (limited license) for planning application ONLY is bundled with Planning Plus. This means you cannot create native Essbase apps directly in Essbase server.

Error While Creating Essbase Database From Hyperion Planning

Hi,
While creating the Essbase Database From the 'Manage Database' in Hyperion Planning, I am getting the following error:
com.hyperion.planning.olap.EssbaseException: Account (1060000)
It gets stuck at Adding Dimensions.
I have tried reconfiguring Planning, but no luck.
My Relation Repository is MS SQL Server 2005 and the Essbase and Shared Services are on a Linux box.

Have you tried restarting the services and giving it a try?
Which version of Essbase/Planning are you on?
If your Essbase server name has more than 30 characters, please use NODENAME with short server name.

Hyperion Planning migration error while refreshing/creating Essbase cube

Hi,
I'm migrating a Hyperion Planning application (11.1.1.4) to a complete other environment (due to the split of the companies). I have read most post on otn, but unfortunately nothing that helped me to solve the issue, yet... I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
I have executed the following steps:
1. Create a new Oracle database
2. Create a datasource to the Oracle database and to Essbase (both tested succesfully)
3. Create a fresh planning application (I have used a native Admin account and not the original owner)
4. Go into the database tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
5. Go into the database planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created - I did not do this since I could not delete this value. null is not accepted.
6. Stop Planning
7. Restore the planning application database over the one created in the first step (I had to drop the existing tables first)
8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
9. Start planning
10. Log on to planning and I did see the webforms, etc as expected.
11. Now, when I try to refresh the database, I receive an error:
Cube refresh/create in progress
Status failed
Step 4 Adding dimensions
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: getAttributeType
Does anyone has an idea? Hope someone can help me since the deadline is getting closer and closer.
Thanks!
Kind Regards
Martin

Hi John,
Thanks for your reply.
I have exactly done what you have described. I droped the schema and recreated it with an impdp to import.
But, in the meantime I have been investigating the dimensions and there's indeed something very wrong. Some dimensions have been mixed up. In the 'old' environment I have 10 stored dimensions and 4 attribute dimensions (as well as in EAS as in Planning, offcourse as you expect). In the 'new' environment, two stored dimensions have been mixed up with two attribute dimensions.... How is that possible?
I have never seen that. Could this be caused by the reason that we use a different version of Oracle (11G release 2 vs 10G (10.2.0.4))? Or went something wrong with exporting the schema...? Can you tell me what I can do to investigate this?
Thanks!
Kind Regards,
Martin

Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 "Configure Data Sources" freezes at Essbase conf

Hi!
I am setting up a demo environment of Hyperion Planning for one of our customers (my first time installing this application). The platform is Windows Vista Business 32-bit. RDBMS is Oracle 10g on another machine. I've successfully installed Hyperion 9.3.1 Shared Services, Essbase, Essbase Admin Services and Planning application.
I've successfully configured all the applications (with the Configuration Utility) besides Hyperion Planning. I can access Workspace, User Management Console, Essbase Administration Services (and connect to my localhost Essbase server from there), etc - thus I believe that the installations and configuration of these modules is successful.
When I try to finish my Hyperion Planning configuration with the utility, the last step is to "Configure Data Sources" (previous configuration steps including "Product Instance Registration" were successful).
I start the configuration utility, select the properties, enter the Oracle db connection properties (no error there), then enter the Essbase connection properties (the same which enable me to add this server in the Essbase Administration Services, view and start applications, etc) and the installer just freezes.. hangs indefinitely..
Server: localhost
uid and password are the ones I provided during essbase installation/configuration
I've tried this configuration step multiple times, I've restarted the machine. The maximum time I've waited is ~30min.
Questions:
# Is it normal for the Essbase configuration page to freeze after clicking "Next" for 30min (maybe I'm just impatient, I'm new to Hyperion)
# What could be wrong?
# How could I see the error message - is there an error log somewhere?
Many thanks for your time.

Best Practice for Hyperion Planning : Essbase or Dataform for Adhoc Analysi

Hi,
with Hyperion Planning, you are able to start an Adhoc Analysis from an Hyperion Planning Dataform or from an Essbase cube?
What is the best way / pro / contra ? thanks in advance
.... I 've juste notice that when you delete the dataform the Retrieve doesn't work anymore :-( .... and with Essbase you get some "un-useful" dimension as HSP_Value
Regards
xavier

A couple of other things that go with Planning as the data source:
1) You have access to all of the non-Essbase data -- think SmartLists, text (okay, it's there now in Essbase, but not from Planning applications) fields, supporting detail, etc. If you want users to see that relationally stored data, the only other way to get it in Excel is to run a Financial Reports report into Excel (or hack the tables and write SQL to pull the stuff -- did that pre 11x and it's too much work).
2) There's a performance hit when going against Planning, just like there is when Planning is the data source in Financial Reports.
Using a form to limit dimensionality - isn't that what SmartSlices are for? I guess it's another way to get to the same place. Although you have to administer the SmartSlices, I would imagine they would break less often than a form might. Having said that, once built, how often do you delete a form?
It's really nice that ad-hoc analysis from forms are now possible, but I've always thought of it as nice feature to have alongside data entry, never as the primary path into Essbase analysis.
Just my $0.02.

Migration cognos to HFM / Hyperion Planning

Hi,
Does anyone know the steps to migrate Cognos cubes to HFM 11/Hyperion Planning 11? I've no idea where to start from other than doing it manually from scratch, like building the outline & loading data.
Can we export metadata & data from Cognos in a format which can be loaded to HFM/planning w/o much tedious manual task?
Please give me suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hi S.P.,
i read your post. How looks your migration concept from Cognos to OHP 11?
Pls write me a mail [ noahface[at]gmx.de ] or give a post.
Thxs in advance.

Loading HFM data to Hyperion Planning using FDM

Hi All
Has anyone ever used HFM as a data source for FDM?
Someone has asked me for the best way to get data from HFM into Hyperion Planning and whether FDM can manage that. I know there is a generic Pull adapter and the ERPi but I'm not sure whether either of those will do the job.
At the moment I am assuming that they will need to extract data from HFM to flat file and then import to FDM as a 2 stage process?
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Stuart

Hi Tony
Apologies for the delay (my email spammed the notification that you had replied, helpful!!). When you say that you have done it but discourage accessing the tables directly how did you achieve this? Were you just careful which data intersections your selected from the tables (e.g. always base level data so it is stored not calculated)?
I have used the HFM relational tables a couple of times to make use of the metadata that they contain but not tried to get data before.
Regards
Stuart

Making Changes in Essbase & Hyperion Planning

when we make changes in Hyperion Planning Application they show changes in Essbase Application also but When we make changes in Essbase Application It does not show changes in Hyperion Planning Application. Why?

Any changes you want to make to the Essbase database for Hyperion Planning must be done through the Planning app. Otherwise direct changes made on the Essbase side will be erase upon the refresh.^^^Not strictly true -- the Essbase UDA_HSP allows Essbase-only properties without reference to Planning. This is the way Planning worked till System 9. You can still use this UDA in Planning -- I used it in Planning just last week for a Scenario member calculation that referenced members in only one Plan Type out of three. It is a pain in the rear and impossible to resolve in Planning member formulas themselves.

What is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM

Hi GURU'S,
what is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM and when do we choose them.

On a high level the difference is this:
1. HFM is best for global collection (collecting data from scattered entities), group consolidation and for easily structuring financial reporting (mainly consisting of financial data)
2. Planning is best for modeling your business, starting from a demand forecast and arriving to capacity planning and finally to financial statements, by utilizing business drivers (non-financial data like volumes, prices, productivity rates etc)
Of course, differences may be analyzed at several levels down to technical, but the discussion may turn out to be too long, yet adding little value to the question: "when do we choose the one over the other". Bear in mind that your requirements may turn out that you need both.
