Hyperion Web Analysis vs Financial Reports

Hi All,
Can you pls. let me know what are the major differences between Hyperion Financial Reports and Hyperion Web Analysis ? For Planning application we generally use Financial Reports right ? Can't we use Hyperion Web Analysis ? What are the advantages & disadvantages of both FR & Web Analysis tools
Thanks,
PVR

In a nut shell Hyperion Web Analysis is useful for reports having user drill downs. The end users will have the capability to drill down and select member from different Point of Views.
Financial Reports can be used for regulatory reporting and reports in standard format.
You can create reports in both Financial Reports and Web Analysis from Planning based on your requirement.
Please read the documentation for more information on the differences between the two products.

My Customer is asking the Merits and De merits of using both FR & Web Analysis tools for Hyperion Planning. Pls. help
Thanks,

Hi John,
I'm using FR extensively now and used Web Analysis before. We use FR for Good formatted Reports, where as Web Analysis we use for adhoc Reporting Purpose. users can do slicing/dicing, Drill down/up in Web Analysis Reports, where as this feature is not available completely in FR
We use FR for Planning right ? What is the main advantage of using FR over Planning ? I belive with Web Analysis over Planning may cause performance issues
Thanks,

Differences between Hyperion Workspace, Web Analysis and Financial Reportin

Hello,
Can anybody explain me the differences between Hyperion Workspace, Web Analysis and Financial Reporting?
Thank you

In real simple terms....
Financial reporting - Perfect for producing standardised monthly reporting such as P&L, balance sheets etc. Highly formatted, print well in PDF format.
Web Analysis - Highly graphical, web based analysis tool more suited to dashboards, pinboards etc with slice and dice capability.
Workspace - Common environment where reporting content in deployed. Users can access web anlysis, fin reports, Interactive reports plus other content through the workspace. It was the start of the 'log on to one place for all reporting' concept instead og logging on to multiple products.
Hope that helps
Regards

Email Reports - Hyperion Web Analysis.

Hi All,
My client wants to view the reports in their black berry's.
can we email reports as attachment in Hyperion Web Analysis.
would appreciated prompt response.
thank you in advance.

It's not possible to email a WA report. An option is to recreate your report in IR and have it scheduled to email the result to the users.

Few Hyperion Web Analysis questions

Hi All,
We are using Web Analysis 11.1.2 and i am a newbie to it. I have few questions regarding reports which may be of very basic level;
Q1. If we right click on a report then we have an option of "Edit data" through which we can enter data directly into planning. My question is that how can i disable this option for all users as i don't want them to manipulate any data through a report?
Q2. As we have made a report in which we have used the dimension members that are used in Hyperion planning. The name of member in Hyperion planning for example is ABC and i want to change the name to XYZ in Hyperion Web analysis report. How is that possible?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

Q1 depends on the level of provisioning and or useraccess permissions on essbase/olap level.
Use Shared Services in combination with EAConsole to restrict this.
Q@. In plain/ native essbase you can add aliases to the member. Normally you do not edit planning members in essbase (since you have to change them in planning it self) But perhaps you can. You can give it a try in a testenvironment.

HYPERION WEB ANALYSIS STUDIO RELEASE 1 1 . 1 . 2 .

Hi
I have an issue regarding Hyperion Web analysis Studio Release 11.1.2 I am using ESSBASE as a data source.
I want to make a report that aggregated rows between two Dimensions (lob and Accounts).
Instead of adding two dimensions in the row section I want one cell the aggregates the two dimensions
The value of the cell is the result of the intersection between the two dimensions.
For example instead of having
Account| LOB
I want a cell that calculate (LOB->Account) for each row
thanks

Hyperion Web Analysis- Issue in fetching data 50000 rows

Whenever trying to fetch more than 50000 rows in a Hyperion Web Analysis report, the output is truncated to 50000 rows only. A message is displayed for the same.
As a solution we have tried the following
1) Increase the MaxDataCellLimit and MaxJDBCCellCount to 999999 and restarted the services
2) Ftchmembersize has also been increased and services restarted.
However inspite of trying out these options with few a more rows than 50,000 the report is not opening.
Please suggest a workable solution with Hyperion Web Anaysis to handle records between 50000-300000 range.( Source may be Essbase or relational).
Which tool in Hyperion suite 11.1.2.1 would be the best candidate to handle transactional rows of huge volume ?
Regards,
Anirban

Why don't you try Smart View or the excel addin, Web Analysis was not really designed to dump large amount of rows into it.
If it is just an extract you are looking for then there lots of export options.

Hyperion Web Analysis Studio - Excel Export Data PATH TO EXCEL

I have a problem with Hyperion Web Analysis Studio by Export Data (Path to Excel) function on every client (windows Vista - IE 7 - Office 2007)
The problem is when I try to use the Export data to Excel, the Path to the excel program is missing and I have to go manually over the directory and choose the excel.exe to export the report, when I restart the IE I have to do it again...
Hyperion support suggested I try adding the Excel path to my webanalysis.properties file
So I now have:
ExcelPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\EXCEL.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
EXCEL.EXE
WordPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\WINWORD.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
WINWORD.EXE
PPTPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\POWERPNT.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
POWERPNT.EXE
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
ResolveDimSetAliases=false
ExportDataFullPrecision=true
To me this does not seem the way to go
This did not correct my problem.
Any ideas?
thanks
Erich

Cache memory usage of Hyperion Planning, Workspace and Financial Reporting

We have installed Hyperion Planning, Workspace and Financial Reporting in one single server and we would like to know is there any cache memory setting can be fine tuned to improved the overall online performance of the system.
How can we control the memory usage of individual user logged into Workspace and Hyperion Planning? And if users generate a large size report in Financial Reporting, should more memory be allocated to the user so as to speed up the report generation speed?
Thanks in advance!

Our onsite consultants told us that as we have many web forms and some web forms contains lot of cells, the compiled Hyperion Planning application is quite large (> 1GB) and sometimes may have "out of memory" problem. We just wonder we are using 64bit version of Windows 2003 we should have a much larger memory address space. How can we improve the "out of memory" issue?
Or Hyperion Planning is still a 32 bit application?

Hyperion Web Analysis Printing

We have created several reports in Hyperions Web Analysis that we would like to print; however, when printing it gives us no option to adjust Margins. Does anyone know if there is anyway to change the preset margins of 1 inch on reports? Is there a backway to do this on the server?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Web analysis, SQR Production Reporting, and maybe Interact Rpting are dead?

Hi,
I dont wish to hurt anyone but would like to know the facts from experts.
Look Smarter blog says "Web analysis, SQR Production Reporting, and maybe Interactive Reporting are dead?"
http://looksmarter.blogspot.com/search/label/Top10
Is this true?

Hi Mehmet,
thank you. I could not answer on friday, was not at office.
I tried according to the instructions of oracle ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/pr_studio/frameset.htm?data_connection.html ). See comments:
To create an Essbase data source connection:
1. OK
Select Connection on the main SQR Production Reporting Studio screen.
The Create Data Connection wizard is displayed.
2. OK
On the first page, enter a name to identify the data connection.
For example, you could enter Essbase to identify a connection to an Essbase data source.
3. OK
On the second page, select DDO to identify the data source provider.
4. NOT OK. The messages shown: "Unable to start the JVM. Ensure that the JRE section of the SQR.INI file contains the correct directory. (4)"
"Unable to erad DDo Registry.Properties file. Check location and accessibility, an that the sqr.ini DDO pathvariable settings are correct (DDO.3)."
On the third page, select an Essbase data source.
The wizard displays the available registries and data sources.
Seems some setting problems. We would check that. Any suggestions to that error??

Hello,
As far as I know from Metalink, there is a same problem with Japanese locale in WA. For cyrillic language, which I use, I've been advised by Oracle tech persons to set the same settings in all regionals (Standard and formats, location, and Advanced -> Non unicode) and IE language preference (or use English everywhere as temporary workaround), which worked for me. May be WA has some additional issues in Java color/font selection dialogs when using non-English locales.
If you have Metalink access, you can search for bug ID # 8538102, according to it, this problem will be fixed in 11.1.2 release of EPM.
Regards.
