Hyperion Smart View meta read problem

hi
I created a template for users in smart view.I was testing with some native users.
the template which i created was with all the dimension and I Descendants dimensions.
some users are having write back functionality.
i used Meta Read filters for some users who will be only having access to a particular dimension and member.
At first i created a template with all the dimension and descendants and did save the report and I logged in with native users in to the same template.When i click on member selection I am able to see the applied filter( Meta Read) is working properly.But by default when i login with the same user at first i am getting an message saying that for some members you are are not having permission upto there i am fine.
My question is
Is there a better work around.So that when the user logs in smart view the template which provided he should only see the members for which he is having permission and the rest of members for which he is not having permission should disappear.
Thank in Advance
Thanks
Kris

You most likely have a SV template set up and are trying to share that template, correct? The functions are looking for the SV xla in the bin folder, so if SV is installed in different paths, then your SV template will produce that error. When you first open the template and you get the update links, select edit, then browse to where the user has SV installed and go to the bin folder. This should update those functions.

  • Language Setting for - Hyperion Smart View for Office

    Hi,
    Here's a scenario I need to find an answer to.
    1. We have Essbase system 9 installed on a machine named: USESSSRVR and here the ESSLANG environment variable is set to "English_UnitedStates.US-ASCII@Binary".
    2. We build two Unicode cubes, one for Korea Sales called APPKR.SALESCUB & other for Turkey Sales called APPTR.SALESCUB
    3. Korean users are sitting in Korea & Turkey users are in Turkey & both these users need to see data in their local languages.
    4. Since Essbase Excel Add-In is not compatible with Unicode cubes, we have asked them to use "Hyperion Smart View for Office".
    Now question is,
    -> Where in this entire system do I need to do Language Settings so that they see their characters correctly?
    -> Is there a place in Smart View where you can set languages?
    -> Also we have a limitation that we need to have both the applications APPKR & APPTR on the same Essbase server which is in US.
    PLEASE HELP.
    Thanks.
    ~Jaymin Darbari.

    It's actually because you are installing over an old version. Uninstall SV, review the registry entries and directories and then reinstall with admin priv.
    Of course when I looked it up on support the Oracle ID 1466433.1 suggests that the .net install is corrupt so was i going mad? Not beyond reasonable doubt since I put in an SR a while back about it so I have proof that it is listed as an " "internal bug #14149839 : "SMART VIEW EXTENSION ACTIVATOR OBJECT (-2147467262) This is reported for excel 2010" has been raised with development team. As per the update from the bug this issue has been addressed in patch 11.1.2.2.310 which is yet to be released."
    So if you are on an earlier version of Office possibly is because of the .net install (which I think needs v3.5, at least for Office2003), but I would try do a clean install first.

  • Hyperion Smart View

    We are working on the BI Strategy for our Planning and Allocations. The business users download templates online or offline in excel, and upload bulk data, for e.g, mulitple records for a set of fixed columns. Can Smart view handle this kind of upload? I know Hyperion Smart view allows for offline planning with hyperion Planning and allows sync back to server. But I am not sure if it allows bulk upload. any useful response is much appreciated. Thanks..

    When you say bulk upload do you mean you have say 20 tabs in Excel and wish to send all 20 -- assuming this is what you mean you will need to employ some VB scripting.
    You could use either the Analytic Services (Essbase) Excel Add-in or SmartView for your uploads. SmartView is probably the better long term solution.
    I would suggest using Smartview against Provider Services/Analytic Services - Creation of template or allowing user to create their own templates using SmartView against Essbase

  • Hyperion Smart View Refresh gives Error

    Hi
    I have installed Smart View version 11.1.2 in my Client's computer having 64 bit Operating System.
    Whenever he opens the excel file and click first refresh all the cells having HsGetValue formula shows "Error"
    It gives the same Error in every cell even after disconnecting and connecting again.
    Please help.

    So 11.1.1.3 smart view is not compatible for 11.1.1.3 HFM version for 64 bit OS.
    This is not a true statement, please review documentation using the following link:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/nav/portal_5.htm
    Anyhow, if the "connection panel is blank", is because after installation you must recreate the connection by selecting a url connection using the following sintax:
    http://yourservername/hfmofficeprovider/hfmofficeprovider.aspx , the selecting the appropriate HFM Cluster and database, plus user id and password to create the new connection.

  • Hyperion Smart View error

    Hi

    please suggest what could be the issue,
    for smartview query designer to work, do i have to install essbase client also?

    You don't need to install the essbase client to use Query Designer in Smart View.

  • Hyperion Smart View - Suppress zero & #missing

    Hi,
    I just noticed today that Suppress zero & #missing rows doesn't work in hyperion smartview when planning forms are opened in it.
    Is it necessary to check the suppress #missing rows in Hyperion planning while building the forms ?
    Is it not possible that I have all the rows in Hyperion planning form and suppress #missing and zero rows in smartview form whenevr I like to?
    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi,
    You will probably have to set the suppressions on the forms design side, suppress on the smartview side is more for adhoc analysis.

  • How to use substitution variables in Microsoft Word using Hyperion Smart view

    Can we use Substitution Variables in copy data points and refresh in Microsoft Word? I tried it and it does not work dynamically (copy data points only copies what was in excel cell at that point). It only copies the static value of that variable from that cell. I want to use it dynamically in Word so that if I change the value of that variable in Essbase, it is updated in Word upon refresh. Any idea??
    We need this feature for reporting in microsoft word and keep using the data points every year (instead of copying the cells from excel over again)
    Any help/suggestion is appreciated.
    Thanks

    you can't use substitution variables with copy data points. I had tried a while ago (post 111.1.2.1.102) and it wouldn't work.  I checked with Oracle development and they said it I not available

  • Smart View Ribbon Focus Problem

    We have created an excel add-in that has a number of custom functions.  Those functions are called from a custom tab that we have created and placed on the ribbon.
    When certan functions are called from our custom ribbon tab (e.g. HypRetrieve, HypMenuVRefresh), the focus moves to the Essbase tab on the ribbon.  We have tried everything we can think of to set the focus, but nothing seems to work.
    We want to be able to click our custom "refresh" button on our custom tab, and have the focus stay there.
    Any ideas?

    Hi John,
    Yes, the version is 11.1.2.
    When I have installed EPM, I have installed the provider services and at the same time everything was configured at that time only.
    What is the use of that Shared Connection option ,
    and it gives me an error like the url is not a Shared service url when I try to give Shared services url in the advanced option in the Option Tab
    I don't know anything about this.
    I am able to establish a private connection just by adding a url and can open the dataforms.
    I have also added the provider server in the EAS console and the stand-alone server.
    All this I have done by looking the PDF that are there.
    I am completely lost.
    Till now you will be knowing that what I had done.
    Just help me to resolve
    I am waiting for your reply

  • How to connect Smart Views against BIC2G OBIEE+ Analysis services

    I am trying to run Hyperion Smart View 9.3.1.2.041 against OBIEE+ demo package BIC2G:EE+ v10.1.3.3.2-9.3.1-7.9.5 but I can’t get the connection to work.
    The documentation or the package BIC2G:EE+ v10.1.3.3.2-9.3.1-7.9.5 does contain errors that makes it hard to set up and I have not found any useful documentation how to circumvent the "Unable to connect to the provider" message that I get during connection.

    Good day!
    Try to start the service (Hyperion Provider Services - Web Application). If it doesn't work, try to stop it and start it again.
    I had this problem before.
