Hyperion Web Analysis --Waterfall Chart

Hi,
I have to create a waterfall chart in Hyperion WA report.
Waterfall chart has to be created for different countries. Each country has 5-7 business units under it.
Only Budget values for each business unit has to be included in the chart and sum of all business units is the value for Country.
I would appreciate any help.

While there is no option to select a waterfall chart type, you can create a basic one manually using a bit of trickery:
For example in showing expense/profit:
Use accounts as the X axis, then on the Y: Revenue - Expenses, Revenue, Expenses
Then create a stacked bar chart, using colors as: Rev= Green, Exp=Red, Rev-Exp=White *This is so to hide it on the chart, you will need to make sure to have a white background for the chart.
Hope this helps get you started ;-)
Cheers, Iain

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

Hello,
Even we have the same issue.And changed the path in webanalysis.properties file.And it worked in entire report but in drillthru reports, export to excel 2010 didn't work and prompting to select the path to excel.Does anyone has solution for this??

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.

Hyperion Web Analysis vs Financial Reports Pros and Cons

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

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,
PVR

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.

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

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.

I using local deployment. I deploy my application directly from NWDS to a Mobile Client running also locally in my machine. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that Mobile Client look for resources in NWDS workspace.
This is the dpi file located in the Mobile Client inbox folder when I perform the deployment.

Need assistance in Hyperion Web Analysis Report

Hi All,
I am using HFM with Oracle database as the data source for reports and using Hyperion 931 components.
I have a requirement in Key Performance Indicators reports (KPI)
1) Need to have a custom column of current year Actuals Vs Plan data
2) Need to have a custom column of current year Actuals Vs prior year Actuals data
3) Need to indicate Font colours based on the values derived in columns (1) and (2) - if positive data - green colour
if negative data - red colour
I am trying to replicate this in Web Analysis report, but facing issues on
1)Making this year value dynamic (shd change based on current year or atleast should prompt when we run report)
2) Since i have fixed the report with 2008 and 2007 year, all the formattig made whiel creating the Report goes away, if i try to run the report with different year values like in 2010 and 2009 year (as current and prior year)
3) Also, i have hided some coulumns based on our requirement which also no longer exists if i change the year values (available in coulmns)
Please suggest any comments to resolve these issues, Moreover i am new to Web Analysis reporting tool ,so kindly suggest, if i am not using any of the existing WebAnalysis features to derive my requirement.
Expecting your earliest response.
Thanks,
Siva

Hi Siva,
If you are using the Essbase as a data source then you can achieve these things from using the substitution variable in WA report.
Assume you have a substitution variable in Essbase cube for current year. In WA report in Dimension Browse, right-click a dimension member and select "Substitution Variable”. The Substitution Variable dialog box is displayed. Here select a substitution variable from the list of Essbase substitution variables.
To get the Prior year, again in Dimension Browse, right-click a dimension member and select the "Also select Previous". Here define the prior year that you want to use in your report.
Sorry, I have no idea about the substitution variables in the HFM (It might be that we call the substitution variable with another name in HFM).
Hope it will help you.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain
