Hyperion Reports COnditional Suppression

We're trying to build a report using conditional suppressionthat only shows variances over a certain dollar amount. Is there away to create a subtotal just of those variances that still show upon the report?

what have you tried so far?

Hyperion Financial Report Conditional Suppression

Hi All,
In HFR ......I have a requirement.....
IN Rows there are 2 DIMS : Vendors:Level_0,1,2 & Market:Level_0...
The requirment is that the report should show the hierarchy of Vendors Dimension ONLY if we have data for Level_0 Vendors & Level_0 Market combination.....
So if the data doesnt exist for Level_0 Vendors & Level_0 Market combination ; the hierarchy of vendors: Level_1 & level_2 with Market:Level_0 should NOT be visible in the report.
I ve taken Vendors:Level_0,1,2 & Market:Level_0 ( I ve cherry picked a single Level_0 market member for a row) in a row and applied the COnditional suppression : *( Level vendors=0 AND Level market=0) AND Current Row Value =0.*
The condition works good when there in nodata for Vendors:Level_0,1,2 ,...........But when there is data for Vendors:Level_1,2 ...they are visible in report which is NOT desired.......how can i suppress these Vendors:Level_1,2 members
Thanks

If level 1, 2 have more than one child and has data, this is difficult to achieve.

Hyperion Reporting page suppression

We have several books set up in Hyperion Reports that prints a report for all the cost centers that fall within a particular region. Some of these cost centers do not have activity during some months. We would like to suppress the entire page if there is no activity. We have tried suppressing rows, columns, and grids however the page header still shows up as part of the book. Any help with this would be greatly appreaciated.

I am not sure what all you have in your header but you could try using a formula with and IF ELSE and see if you can suppress your header components that way. Check for some grid cell and see if that is NULL or blank then make the header blank. Just an idea.

Financial reports - Conditional suppression.

Hi
Grid1 & grid2===Col's=Months
In HFReport there r 2 grids . In Grid1 Row 5 references Formulae Row Grid2.Row[10]===>> calculates division of 4 Rows of Grid2....
Grid2.Row[10] ...on this row im using Conditional suppression to suppress the cells if any of the values in 4 calculating Rows is missing......This works perfect..
But as this Grid2.Row[10] is referenced by Grid1.Row[5]..... the conditional suppression is not carried to Grid1.
Th values for the missing months is showing in Grid1.Row[5] which is wrong values as the division is based on 4 rows..
1. Can we use conditional suppression on Grid1.Row[5]..... based on grid2 Rows.
2.How can we carry the conditional suppression of Grid2.Row[10] to Grid1.Row[5]
Thanks

Data or suppression can be carried over from grid-1 to another grid-2 only when data in the grid-1 is not expanding into multiple rows/columns.
Some how you need to get the data in a single grid if that is the case.
Thanks and regards,

Conditional suppression using substitution variable in Hyperion financial r

Hi all,
Is there a way that I can suppress a column using substitution variable in hyperion financial reporting?
For eg, i want to suppress the column if the value of the substitution variable curr_mnth = jun.
Is there a way to do this? In conditional suprression dialog box, I dont find this option.
Please suggest.
Your response is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sirisha.

Hi Sirisha
In my earlier reply I think I may have mislead you as I thought that you could set the member name equal to that in a row/column and I've managed to get into a HFR studio session this morning and realised that the conditional suppression only allows you to suppress where member name = 'XXX' (specific text) so that doesn;t meet your requirement.
Different people will have different ways of achieving what you want and everyones requirements are different. If it helps my preferred way of conditionally suppressing periodic data (for Planning/Essbase) is to add a dynamic calc account member called 'TP-Index' into the database, set up a formula so that each period returns a numeric value from 1 to 12 to match the fiscal/calendar year as required.
Then in reporting bring the account and period dimensions into rows/columns so that you are able to retrieve data for the TP-Index account and the period as defined in your substitution variable. You can then choose how the suppression works based on a numeric value, commonly you may want to suppress if greater than, e.g. you have a multi-period report where your actual data is to June so you want to suppress everything from July onwards.
I'm sure that a similar thing could be achieved in HFM as well if that is your underlying system instead of Essbase.
Does that help?

Condition suppression in crystal reports

I need help in conditional suppression of data in a crystal report I have created. It is hard to explain so I will show you with example data that has no reference to real data.
Here is an example of non suppressed data in two columns.
Column A     Column B
****               a1
****               a2
****               a3
####             a2
!!!!                 a1
%%%%        a5
I need to be able to conditionally suppress the above example to show all records in Column B where the value in column A is the same and one row of Column be has the entry of a1. The data should look like the following after the conditional suppression.
Column A     Column B
****               a1
****               a2
****               a3
!!!!                 a1
If you compare the two examples you should be able to follow what I am after. You can see that the following entries in column A, **** and !!!! also have the entry a1 in column B. For this reason I want them returned. I also want all other values returned where this is seen. You can see that the second example of data has three records in Column B where the entry in Column A is the same and it has a1 in column B at least once.
I hope you can understand this, it was very hard to explain. Let me know if I can offer any further information.

There is a way to do this, but it's going to be a bit tricky. Assuming that both columns come from the same table, which I'll call "MyTable", here's what you'll need to do:
1. Add a second copy of "MyTable" to the report. Crystal will warn you that the table is already in the report and ask if you want to "alias" it, at which point it will be added to the report as "MyTable_1".
2. Link FROM MyTable TO MyTable_1 on ColumnA (as well as any other required fields if necessary).
3. In the Select Expert, add the following to the selection criteria:
{MyTable.ColumnA} = "a1"
4. In the report, use the ColumnA and ColumnB fields from MyTable_1.

Hyperion Reports - Suppress based on Sub Var

Hi, I have a report with the time periods in the columns. Column [A], which is suppressed, is Sub Var $CurMnth. Column "B", which is suppressed, is a range of time periods (months). Column [C] is the sum of Column "B". I want to conditionally suppress Column [C] based on the value of the CurrMth Sub Var. So, IF CurMnth = Jul, then suppress Column [C]. I can't find a way to do this. Is it possible? Thanks. 

Well, if your value "Jul" does not changes, the youcan do conditional supressions. Suppose you column with sub var is colum a then use If data value in cell [a,1] is equal to data Jul, --> usethis condition for conditional supression. I use something like this in my reports and it works fine. hope this helps !

Conditional Suppression error in Financial Reporting

Hello all,
I'm having trouble with the conditional suppression. I have a Financial Reporting report that shows the top 10 customers. The Customer Dimension are the rows. The First column contains the Sales. So, I have a 2nd column that uses the rank function. I then use conditional suppression to suppress the rows where the value in the rank column exceeds 10. I have the Organization Dimension as a Page dimension using a prompt. If I run the report with the default prompt value ( or just select 1 different member from the prompt) , the report works perfectly. However, if I select multiple members from the prompt and run the report, only the rows on the first page get suppressed. The rows on the subsequent pages (for the other selected Organization dimension members from the prompt) do not get suppressed. Does anyone have a workaround for this problem? Please let me know.
thanks,
Vince Kelly

In the formatting section, you can define the negative formatting that is how it should be displayed.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
aly

Problem using a conditional suppress in a cross-tab ?

is there a problem using a conditional suppress in a cross-tab on a row or summarized field in crystal XI?
I am using the following conditional suppress on a summarized field and its rows
         If {@SortCode}=4 then true;
Sortcode is a group sorting formula field
the summarized field is a formula field as well.
All of the summarized fields are suppressed although the cross- tab performs correctly on @Sortcode and the summarized field when not using the condition
it seems to me to be a reporting flow issue although i've included "whileprintingrecords" and "evaluateafter" with no success.
i have also moved the cross-tab from the report header to group header and applied a conditional suppress on the group header through section expert.
this supresses the group i dont want but includes grand totals for each group and also varys the number of columns
i can't filter on sortcode because one of the grand total calculations requires those records and a subreport or second cross-tab does not contain the same number of columns
the cross-tab is necessary as a client may have columns spanning one to many pages
thanks for your help

Hi I have a similar problem,
I have an clock in solution, where i have some dates with data such as, various entries for a date eg, 01/11/2010 1hr, 01/11/2010 3 hrs etc, 03/11/2010 2hrs , 05/11/2010 4.5hrs, 05/11/2010 4 hrs so i need total for each day and highlight only those days, where total is less than 4.5, including days which donu2019t have records eg 02/11/2010 & 04/11/2010, I summarise in totals using a cross tab, to get summarised output for each day as,
            Totals
01/11/2010    4
03/11/2010    2
05/11/2010    8.5
in order to get the dates which didnu2019t have records, i added a dataset from Excel spreadsheet where i just have a sequential dates for the year , and use record selection to select only those dates in range which i need to display, so the result i get
01/11/2010    4
02/11/2010    0
03/11/2010    2
04/11/2010    0
05/11/2010    8.5
so far so good, all using cross tab, now i want to suppress rows which have total > 4.5 so the result should be
01/11/2010    4
02/11/2010    0
03/11/2010    2
04/11/2010    0
How can i do that?

Hyperion Reports - HFMCurrency function error when expanding rows

Im using Hyperion Reports 7.2.On the report in the production environment, Ihave a cell containing a HFMCurrency function with a conditionalformatting: In<<HFMCurrency("Grid1", 5, A, 1)>>Thousands Conditional formatting applied: IF Member NameValue contains Contributions OR IF Member NameValue contains Parent OR IF Member NameValue equals Proportion THEN ReplaceString Value : In USD Thousands The report contains multiple expandable rows. Everytime a row isexpanded it returns this value with an error on the cell containingthe formula: In Error: Unable to get cell valueThousands It's weird because the error on the report does not persist inthe development environment. Any insights will be helpful. You mayreply on this thread or send directly your comments to:[email protected] Thanks. 

If you use this function/syntax on the row without expansions does it work? If so, I believe the issue has to do with the syntax. You might need to use the current keyword to make the function dynamic (for example, <<HFMCurrency("Grid1", current,A,1)>>). When you write the formula with a fixed value for rows, it's not dynamic (for the expanded rows). Although, I wouldn't expect you to get an error, just the wrong description. To narrow it down, I would try the function on a row w/o expansions or conditional formatting. Then add expansions. If that works, add back the conditional formatting.

Hyperion Reports

Until recently my company used Hyperion Reports v 2.6. When I first started working here, I began using thedescription field for report books. Since then, I noticedthat whenever I created a new book, or edited an existing book, oneof my descriptions would default into it. It didn't matter ifI had another descrition in there, this old one would default in,and I'd have to change it every time. I've since upgraded tov 7.2, and this behavior is continuing. I can't find anywherethat this "default" description is stored so I can removeit. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? It's nota huge deal, the reports work just fine, but it's extremelyirritating and perplexing.

i havent tried what you are trying to accomplish but i can think of two things.1. sort your data in descending order of the account value that you are using and put a condition to supress all the rows after generating 50 rows.2. Try to use the rank function on your data. I exactly dont know how it works but just throwing it out irf u might be able to figure it out for your use.

Top/Bottom reports in Hyperion Reports?

Hi, I'm trying to produce a top 100 customers report using Hyperion Reports. Is there a way to do this? I found the RANK function, but that just returns a value--it doesn't filter based on data values. The only way I can find to do it is to add a formula column with the RANK function, then suppress any rows where that column's value is greater than 100. A bit of an awkward workaround, it seems. Maybe I'm just missing something, but it seems that given how easy it is to do this in Query Designer, report scripts, and Analyzer, that it would be easy in Reports, as well. Thanks, Jared 

Gary, Thanks for the quick reply. But is it just me, or does it seem somewhat lame that there's not a built-in functionality for top/bottom reports? Or could it be that that functionality falls more into the Analysis category than the basic reporting category, and that's why Analyzer has it and HR doesn't? Jared

XI Page Header conditional suppression not exporting to editable RTF

I have a report that I don't want the page header to print on the first page (using the report header instead). It works great exporting to everything except editable RTF.
If i have a suppression condition on the page header, it doesn't print on any of the pages on the rtf. If I have no suppression, it prints on each page (including the first). Is this 'by design'? Is there a work around? Is it slated for a future enhancement? Bug Fix? I can't find any information on this situation. I'm assuming it's similar to the 'Page # of #' problem.
The customer insists on an editable RTF... as they want to edit it before sending it out to their customers!
If anyone has any ideas, knowledge, workarounds... I'd love to hear about it! Thanks!
Belinda

Here is a workaround that I just tried and it works:
1. Create a "FakeGroup" formula:
WhileReadingRecords;
2. Insert Croup by "FakeGroup" formula
3. Move it to the top grouping level
4. Go to Options in Group Expert and click Repeat Group Header On Each Page
5. Go to Section Expert and conditionally suppress Group Header 1 (onfirstrecord)
6. Move all content of your Page Header to Group Header1
7. Suppress Page Header

FR Conditional Suppression on Formula Column

If I have 2 columns of data and 1 formula column taking the difference.
Row 1 is Base of Custom1, with conditional suppression on formula column if difference is <$5m
Row 3 is Total custom1
Row 2 is Other (ie [3] - [1].sum)
Row 1 suppresses fine, but row 2 returns zero as [1].sum is apparantly prcessed before the conditional suppression.
I've tried this before with suppression on Data columns and it worked fine. Is there a solution to this?

For best practice you should put any calculated rows as the last row, in your example I suggest you move the row 2 (the calculation row [3] - [1].sum) below row 3.
FR seems to calculate each row in turn, moving down the report - therefore it can miss calculations which reference other values or calculations down the sheet.

Conditional Suppression - No Data

I am working with Conditional Suppression via Studio (reporting).
I am trying to suppress a formula column/row where there is no data (the column is dividing the value by 12). I received #ERROR since the column formula cannot divide "no data by 12.
Any suggestions?

Hi
One of the options in the Advanced Suppression is to suppress if the data value is 'ERROR' so could you use this. Alternatively put the advanced suppression on the column that contains the 'No Data' value rather than on the one containing the formula.
Hope this helps
Stuart
