Hyperion Planning Smart View issue with Member Names & Aliases

Hi,
Im using Smart View "Essbase" Connection to a Hyperion Planning Application, ver 11.1.1.3, however with the essbase connection i am not able to select at the smart view options to see aliases, members or both. I change the setting ( Duplicate member names allowed =true) directly at the properties of the outline in EAS, and now i am able to see the aliases, however if time I refresh using web planning/workspace this setting is undone. Furthermore i dont thing i should use it with planning. Any comments?
Kind Regards

First of all I hope you have not changed the properties of the outline in EAS for a planning application.
For more information on using aliases in smartview have a read of :- Smartview --- Display options --- to display alias names
Also you will only be able to view member name or aliases not both at the same time.
Cheers

Outputing member names & aliases from an outline

Is there a easy way to export member & alias info. If I open an outline, I can do a copy and paste, but only the member names themselves get copied, no alias info. Is there an easy way to do this.

I wrote an Excel utility workbook that works well for that issue (and some others).You can use it to do the following:1. Paste members you've copied from the Outline Editor into a single column. Admittedly, you can use Member Select for this...but when I wrote this, I was back and forth between Excel and App Manager so much that it was just easier.2. Using the highlighted range of member names or aliases, paste either member names, aliases, or both, into one or two columns. You can overwrite the original range or place the members/aliases in a different range.Other features include a "mini-cascade" with optional worksheet tab naming, and some Excel-specific functions, such as:Type a function and parameters, and the function will be applied to the highlighted range as values (great for quickly changing case of cells or extracting right, middle or left characters)....some other stuff, too. Anyone interested?Jared

OBIEE 11g Map View - Issue with Label Translation

Hi All,
I have a strange translation issue with the Maps in 11g.
Created in English language to plot the Revenue for each of the Postal Codes.
I selected Postal Code and Revenue Amount in the Criteria and created a new Map View. It had the text 'Postal Code' in the Map Legend and then the scale for revenue amount.
Now I logged on with Chinese Language , it still appears as 'Postal Code' in English where in it was actually supposed to show it in Chinese.
We have a translation pack to get all the column names translated. If I try creating a new table view, it shows the translated text instead of 'Postal Code', but some how this doesn't work with Maps.
Has anyone faced similar issues ? Is there a workaround for this ?
Thanks for any pointers.

Hi,
I also encounter the same issue. When I view combined layout, I get the No Results message. But when I edit the table layout, I see that there are records returned. Does anyone had any luck in resolving this issue?
Thanks!

Smart View Issue.

Hi,
We are facing performance issues with Smart View 9.3.1. It works fine when 1-2 users are connected but when more users connect, the time to connect and query increases substantially. This happens when Excel Add-in and Web Analysis are still running fast enough. We have Essbase Server and Provider Services on the same server. Has anyone faced such an issue? If so, what needs to be done to fix this? Will appreciate any help on this.
Thanks.

The change you made will take not take effect on restarting the service as it appears you modified the startup.bat. The windows service does not call the startup.bat file but rather gets it's settings from the registry.
The command line argument you have also sets 700 Mb as the startup heap size; I would set it to something more reasonable (when you set it in the proper place).. Either 64 Mb or 128 Mb are the common values I have seen.
Finally, unless your users are retrieving some huge spreadsheets, I would doubt the memory heap issue would help your performance. Even then, the difference would not necessary be performance issue, except for the time required to allocate more memory for the heap, but rather a possibility of Out-of-Memory errors.

Issue with Member Formula written for Balance Type

Folks,
I am facing an issue with a member formula written for a balance type dimension,
The code says
IIF( IsUda([Accounts].CurrentMember, "BalanceSheet"),
CASE
*WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[YearTotal]) THEN MISSING*
WHEN IsLevel([Time].CurrentMember, 0) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q1]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[MAR])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q2]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[JUN])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q3]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[SEP])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q4]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[DEC])
END
,MISSING)
Outline Structure for Time dimension looks like below
+Time
--|+YearTotal
------|+Q1
----------|+Jan
----------|+Feb
----------|+Mar
The highlighted Part of the code works good for all the Measures which is With the UDA tag BalanceSheet, Except if the Measure with BalanceSheet UDA is a Parent Member.
Parent Level Measures are populated with Data(populating Dec Data) instead of showing #MISSING.
Any help on this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Gurus,
I raised an SR with Oracle support and they have replied by saying that, In EPM 11.1.2.4, the IE11 is only supported for interactive reporting and we will have to use IE 10 & 9 for workspace.
Yes. It works fine in IE 10 & 9.

Issue with file name in receiver Communication channel

Hi Experts,
I am sending the files from SAP Application server to third party Application server.
In my source folder i have different types of files with different names.
but i need to pickup the files which is coming as of type sss_3300_was.txt and sss_3400_was.txt.
what would be the logic for this.what my understanding is if i put sss_* it will works.
If suppose the file is Exist in the folder as sss_3300_was.txt , so it will picked up and places in target folder.
and next time if the file type is sss_3400_was.txt then that will pick up and places in the target folder.
my question is, in the receiver comm channel what would be the file name scheme. i have tried with * and / but system has not been accepted as * can not be given.
Kindly suggest what should i put in Receiver CommChanne file name sheme.
Appreciate your inputs
Thanks,
Bhaskar

Hi Satish,
Thanks for your valuable inputs.
Actually i need to change the subjet when i am asking other question...
first thing is suppose i have 10 files like sss_3100_was, sss_3300_was, sss_3400_was........sss_3900_was in the sender application folder and should be moved to receiver [target] folder with the same name.
as you said mentioned above below is my undertsanding, please correct me if i am wrong.
In sender cc
1. i will give file name as sss_*
2. i will flag ASMA and also check file name.
In receiver cc
1. I will give file name as sss_*
2. i will flag ASMA and also check the file name
The above is my understanding with respect to your inputs, is it correct?
in receiver cc i have tried file name scheme as sss_* but when i see the receiver CC log its telling that * is not allowed.
may be i have not flaged ASMA at that time, but now i will flag ASMA in receiver CC dose it works? just need to confirm from you.
Regarding seconf issue.
when file is picking up from the source folder from SAP Application server as i can see file is picking up well and posting in third party folder and even in the sender cc and receiver cc logs i could see all shown in success.But when i see in the SXMB_MONI in the inbound interface the data are coming in the special charater format like @$??? and so on.But when i checked in SAP Appl server the same file contains the three lines of data like material number purchase order number and so on and it is Text file.
below mentioned are done configs for sender CC by me.
MP: file
TP: NFS [as it is SAP appl server]
filepath:/
file name: sss_*
file type :text
add time stamp
..... and so on
Kindly advise me if any changes are required and also provide me inputs in case any correction.
Thanks,
Bhaskar Reddy

10.1.2.3.0 CP2 Viewer Issue with Managed Links

With this patch workbooks with managed links that were operational passing a blank (optional) parameter now pass 'NULL' as the value. This is bug 7422080. We are in the process of downloading CP5, which is suppose to resolve this issue. This will take time. Can anyone think of a possible workaround? The workaround explained in the bug does not work, which was to edit the parameter, add a default value, then edit it again, remove the default value and save the workbook. I have also tried ' ' as a default value but it just passes ' '. It would be nice to have a workaround until we can install, test and upgrade to CP5.
Thanks,
Jerre

Michael,
Below is the file change. When we set it to 'true' Viewer performed correctly.
Jerre
=====
2. Then a new configuration parameter "passNullParameterAsNull" needs to be set in configuration.xml under <viewer section with default value as false and which is an optional one. Usage :
<viewer queryRefreshPeriod="3000" queryRequestTimeout="1000" longRequestRefreshPeriod="6000" longRequestTimeout="10000" userDefinedConnections="true" passNullParameterAsNull="true" logLevel="debug" laf="dc_blaf" pageNavigation="true" switchWorksheetBehavior="prompt" defaultLocale="en" disableBrowserCaching="false" enableAppsSSOConnection="false">
When passNullParameterAsNull="false" , that means, when null is passed as parameter from one sheet to another during drill to link, the value will be converted in between to the value which is set as "ShowNullValueAs" in second sheet. eg: if ShowNullValueAs = "" in second sheet. Null value passed from first sheet will reach as value "" in second sheet. If passNullParameterAsNull="true", then Null value will always be passed as Null to second sheet irrespective of the value of "ShowNullValueAs" in second sheet.

Viewing issues with Adobe Acrobat Professional 8

We have Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 installed, and we are having some issues when viewing pdf documents. Once a Word document is converted to a pdf document, some of the hyperlinks are appearing thicker (almost bold) than others, and some of the text appears lighter/darker than the rest of the text. There is no pattern to this, it is all very random.
When we print the pdf document, everything looks correct, so this only happening when we view the document on the computer.
Can anyone provide a suggestion on how to fix this issue?
Thanks!

Sorry, I forgot the attachment!
Hi Bill,
I am attaching screen shots of 1) a page where the hyperlinks appear thicker and 2) the document properties pages showing the fonts.
We have tried creating it with both the Adobe PDF Maker and the MS PDF tool and it happens using both. I am thinking that this really is a viewing issue, because it prints out fine. Also, it looks the same no matter what the zoom setting is.
Please let me know if you have any other advice.
Thank you!

Hyperion Planning - Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check planning

Hi All,
I'm trying to configure Hyperion Planning to user an external user repository (OID) but when i try to login with an OID user i get the following error :
"Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check planning log for details"
I'm not hyperion expert so please excuse any school boy mistakes.
Use Case : login to Hyperion Planning using an OID user
Setup:
1)     User created in OID
2)     Use Provisioned in HSS with planning roles
3)     User can login to HSS
4)     Able to login with Native user with the exact same roles
5)     Version 11.1.2
6) Can only see native user in EAS..
I've googled away and tried various things:
1) Run provisionUsers script :
Loaded Version of Essbase RTC: 0xb1200
[Wed Jan 25 09:39:04 GMT-06:00 2012] Planning successfully notified HBR repository.
Wed Jan 25 09:39:41 GMT-06:00 2012 :: [Wed Jan 25 09:39:41 GMT-06:00 2012] Plann

2) Bouncing servers
Any help would be great.
Thanks,

Hi,
Have you updated the datasources for each of the planning applications, you will need to update the password and probably recycle planning app server.

Planning and Essbase apps with same name on HSS-enabled Essbase server

I have an Essbase app "FOO" which was migrated from another Essbase server. I re-pointed an existing planning app also called "FOO" at this new server/app using the configuration setup utility. As soon as I did this, the app "FOO" disappears from the list of Essbase apps in EAS and HSS. The Essbase .sec file now has it listed as "Client Application Type: PLANNING". This is not so good as I now can't apply provisioning etc. to the Essbase app. I need to see this in both projects, as it was before - any ideas?
I tried:
* A MAXL re-register of the app but you can't as it gives "ERROR - 1051494 - Re-Registeration not allowed on planning application"
* In Planning, register the app with the HSS "Analytical Services" app but there is a bug in the GUI interface. The project name for an Essbase server always contains colon ":" characters and the GUI splits the project list on these so it's a mess and you can't select the project you need.

You can try to mount all these mount points via NFS in one additional server and then export this new tree again via NFS to all your servers.
No sure if this works. If this works, then you will have in this case just an additional level in the tree.

Intel vPro with wired 802.1x issue with domain name

Hello guys,
this issue is may not related to SCCM directly, but intel forums are really poor so i´d like to ask here...
The Case: We are currently provisioning our vPro chips with SCCM SP2 R3 and almost everthing worked as expected (Provisioning OK, OOB Console OK, PowerControl OK even TLS and Kerberos are working. But there is an issue with the 802.1x authentication. It
seems the vPro chips are not using the correct domain name. Lets say our DNS domain name is
vpro.com and the NETBIOS Name is coprvro . There are no child or other domains. vPro chips are presenting now
vpro\COMPUTERNAME$iME instead of vpro.com oder corpvro
so the Radius Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 - NPS) is saying ReasonCode 7 "...domain is not existing...". AuthenticationType and EAP Type are correct. Usually user- and computeraccounts are using
corpvro as domain name.

Hi Dan,
thank you for your reply. I've already done this in the second place using the SDK and winrm ($8021XProfileInstance.GetProperty("Domain")). I've no idea were SCCM is getting this domain name from. Its cutting off the top level domain extension,
may be SCCM is assuming that this equals the NETBIOS domain name but that is not the case. This is only a guess, in detail I need to know in fact on what basis SCCM is choosing the domain name, then i can fix this...
Intels SCS putting the correct NETBIOS domain name in the amt config, used certificates are the same...

Viewing issue with Adobe Reader

Hi there,
I'm having an issue with Adobe reader, which appears to be not related to platform or version. To cut a long story short. I've created an A4 design in Photoshop. Part of this design includes some boxes, that have been given an outline (border) effect. Also bare in mind that the Photoshop files are being created at 350dpi.
When I put my design into Illustrator/ InDesign and then generate a PDF file. I then go and look at the pdf file and when the zoom is at 100%, the edges of the boxes are not straight, you'll get a slight offset half way along for example. However, when I zoom in to 400% the problem disapears and the lines (edges) look perfectly as they should.
Does anyone know about this issue? I'm worried that when I print from the PDF, this issue will be in the print-out - or will it be OK when I print it seeming as it dissapears at 400% zoom.
Any prompt answers or help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Luke

Can you open Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
