ICP dimension in Planning Application

Hi All!
Did you ever have requirement to use intercompany in planning?
Whether there is a possibility to use ICP dimension in Planning application?

Hi!
I have had it in some applications. It just has to be added as a custom dimension. Calculations concerning eliminations and so on has to be done through Business rules or essbase calcluation scripts. So far I have not found any support in Planning for icp requirements.
kind regards,

Extracting Dimension from Planning Application through EPMA File Generator

Hi,
I have a EPMA planning application (in version 11.1.1.2) and I want to extract its dimensions in to a ads file. I am using EPMA File Generator 9.3.1 for the purpose.
I am selecting the "From Planning Application" tab and entering all the required details, but when I execute... I get error "Unable to get metadata. Please check the web URL, application name, and application server."
I checked the web URL which is:
http://<server name>:8300/HyperionPlanning
and my application name & server are also correct...
Please help me to find out what exactly is going wrong here...
Thanks & Regards,
AK

Why are you using 9.3.1 version, is there not a newer version in \Hyperion\products\Foundation\BPMA\EPMAFileGenerator\
Also if it an EPMA application you can use the EPMA tab to generate the ADS.
Cheers

How to design Flat file for loading attribute dimension in a planning application

Dear Gurus,
I have a requirement to extract attribute dimensions from an essbase application and load it to another planning application. I have a dimension called Program and two attribute dimensions Sales Manager, Accounts manager associated with Program dimension in Essbase application. I will Extract these dimensions using Essbase outline extractor. After Extracting the attribute dimensions I have to load these dimensions to planning applications using outline load utility. Kindly guide me how to design the flat file for loading attribute dimensions in planning application.
Thanks and Regards
SC

You could dig through the docs and try to figure out the file format manually, or you could do this the easy way. Simply use the Outline Load Utility to export your attribute dimension from Planning. The export file format is the same as the import file format. You might have to manually add a couple of test members to your attribute dimension so that your export file has some content. Then simply update the file you exported, and import it.
(I am assuming you have already manually created the Attribute dimension in Planning, and that you simply need to add members to it.)
Hope this helps,
- Jake

How can we delete a dimension from the classic planning applications

Hi Friends,
I am trying to delete a dimension from the planning classic application but i am unable to find out the delete option to delete a dimension. I created the dimension from the Administration -->dimensions --> Add dimension.
If we want to delete a dimension how we can delete that dimension, I heard meta data is stored in the RDBMS so that why if we want delete dimension we need to delete in RDBMS so please tell me the location in RDBMS to delete dimension. i am using sql is RDBMS.
Thanks in advance......

As John mentioned, it is not supported and advisiable to delete a dimension from Planning application. but yes you can take a chance with some risk if you need to do so.. this opertaion is tested in 9.2 but i never tried in EPM V11.
You will need to delete all the children first, then the dimension.
BE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR APPLICATION BEFOREATTEMPTING THIS PROCEDURE.
You will need to delete all the children first, then the dimension.
If you have the dimension in forms, you may also need to (after step 5) go into the hsp_formobj_def_mbr table and delete all references of that object ID. Then delete the dim id in thehsp_form_layout table. Recycle services of Planning.
Procedure: If you create a custom dimension in planning and wish to delete it, here is how you might remove it from SQL manually.
it is recommended that only someone familiar with relational databases attempt this.The following assumptions are being made about the dimension: No forms have any references to thedimension. Any and all attribute dimensions have been removed from the dimension. Any and all members have been removed from the dimension. All security access has been removed from dimension. Any Alias associated with the dimension has been removed.
1. Open the Enterprise Manager for SQL server
2. Open the database that has your planning application
3. Open the table HSP_OBJECT
4. You need to find the row that has the dimension name you want to delete:
5. Take note of the OBJECT_ID in my example it is50051, don't delete it yet.
6. Open the table HSP_MEMBER
7. Find and delete any rows that have a MEMBER_ID equal to the OBJECT_ID from step 5.
8. Close the Table HSP_MEMBER
9. Open the table HSP_MRU_MEMBERS.
10. Find and delete any rows that have a DIM_ID equal to the OBJECT_ID from step 5.
11. Close the table HSP_MRU_MEMBERS.
12. Open the table HSP_DIMENSION
13. Find and delete any rows that have a DIM_ID equal to the OBJECT_ID from step 5.
14. Close the table HSP_DIMENSION
15. Also delete it's reference from the HSP_UNIQUE_NAMES table.
16. Delete the row in the HSP_OBJECT table that you found in step 4.
17. Close the HSP_OBJECT table.
18. Open Essbase Application Manager for the application and remove the dimension from the necessary Essbase outlines
19. Restart the application server.
good luck!!!

I also don't see the menu under "Consolidation" or "Planning" applications. I can naviaget to these applications from Navigate -> Application ->Consolidation or Planning and I see a box with up arrow and down arrow. If I keep my cursor between these two boxes, or the boundary, sometime I could start my applications in these two modules.

Thank you for your reply.
With your help, I can verify it easier rather than creating dataform to verify it.
I have resolved the question now, the root cause is I had used the wrong parameter, shouldn't add '/N' in the command. for /N is a dry run to check whether there are error in CSV file, it won't perform metadata load.
If no error occured, run the command without /N, then the metadata load will be performed.
I refer to this artical,

Sample Planning Application Doesn't Create Entity Dimension Members in Essb

Hello all,
I created a SAMPLE application in planning and then did a "refresh database" so that it would create the outline in Essbase. When I goto Essbase and expand the outline I see seven dimensions: HSP_Rates(3), Account(1), Period(2), Year(4), Scenario(1), Version(1), Currency(2), Entity. It seems to me that not all members are appearing in the outline, I think Accounts is supposed to have 19 members, in my case it only has 1. Scenario only has the member "Current". Entity doesn't have any members at all. Can anybody shed light on why this might be the case? This isn't the way a sample application is supposed to be is it ?

hi John,
I was hoping you'd reply to this thread! Yes I did initialize the sample planning application after you told me to, and yes I am using Classic Planning...I dont have EPMA installed, it requires IIS and all that so there were some constraints on my part. I'm still getting the same error.
So a quick rehash: I reset my system clock to 2007, successfully created the sample app, then refreshed the database (Adminstration -> Manage Database), and then when I look at the outline that was built in Essbase I got HSP Rates (3), Accounts (1), Period (2) Year (4), Scenario (1), Version (1), Currency (2) and Entity with no children. Based on Rittman Mead's blog, I believe I should have more than that. And when I try to load the data it tells me E01 is an unknown member and the data load fails.
What could be the problem ?

How to load dimensions and members in Planning application

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to load dimensions and members in planning. I know that loading dimension is not recommended through Essbase but I wanted to give it a try. I tried to load the dimensions through rule files but it threw an error that the "members do not exist in database." Is that an indication that data cant be loaded at all in planning application through Essbase.
Thanks is advance for all the replies !!

If this is a planning application, you need to load metadata/dimension to planning first. You cannot load metadata directly to Essbase as it will be overwritten when you refresh planning.
You should read documentation to understanding how planning works. Planning is an interface which sits on top on Essbase. However, Planning metadata is stored in database tables and it is synch'd with Essbase through Hyperion Planning refresh.
In order to load metadata to planning, I would suggest to log on to planning and try to build dimensions manually first to know how planning interacts with Essbase. You could load metadata into planning through:
1. Manually
2. ODI: You will need to reverse planning application and then use it to load metadata
3. Outline load utility on planning server.
Remember, all Planning maintenance is done through planning interface and not through Essbase.

Unable to open Planning application through Workspace

Hi All,
I have Installed and configured the Hyperion products in the following Order
->Foundation services
->Essbase server
->Essbase Administration service
->Planning
->Reporting and Analysis
->Workspace
We know that workspace is a single user interface.
After configuring, I tried to open the Planning Application through workspace but I could not able to find "*Classic Application Administration*" under Administer option of Navigate menu Kindly guide me.
Thanks and Regards

You don't need to start downloading weblogic.
Usually the issue is that either the web server has not been configured (this is not weblogic) or the permissions are not correct in shared services e.g. the hss roles of application creator, dimension editor.
You can always try going to create a planning application directly first http://<planningmachine>:8300/HyperionPlanning/AppWizard.jsp
