Import / export of Application view and Data Form

Hi,
I'd like to know if it's possible to backup or export Applications View in EPMA and Data Form in a Planning Application between the test and production machine.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Ale

Hi John and Hi to all,
I’ve used the EPMA File Generator that you sent me both under a test virtual machine and our test machine, but always I’ve the same problem (deploy aborted on 0%), that I’ve pasted up in this tread, and I’ve note that after the exporting with the EPMA File Generator, the original application view not deploys with the followed message:
Status : Aborted
Progress : 100%
Server : DimServer
Detail : App Creation failed with Exceptioncom.hyperion.planning.OptimisticConcurrencyException: You are trying to change data that has been changed by a user on another server. Wait a few seconds and try again.

Difference between Data Grid and Data Forms

Hi all,
What is the difference between data grid and data forms.

Data entry forms are pre defined and are generally used to manually input data into reporting (financial statement) schedules.
They can also be used for reviewing purposes and it gives users a presentable / and consistent format to view data in Hyperion.
Data grids are the equivalent of pivot tables in excel. It should be used for ad hoc purposes to view / analyse data in whatever form you choose. The user has the flexibility to choose what they see in the rows, columns and page dimensions.
One of the main differences between data entry forms and data grids is that you can’t export data grids to excel whereas you can with data entry forms. Other differences are:
1. Run consolidation, translation, promotion from data grids but not in data entry forms.
2. You can link other data entry forms to a data entry form
3. Data entry forms offer greater formatting options than in data grids i.e. colours, fonts, bold, italics.
At the end of the day, they are similar and there is no reason why you can’t have (use) both. It all depends on your local needs on how best you use both.
I hope above information helps.

Urgent! Application tier and Data tier on different platforms

Hello!
I would be very grateful if someone confirms that the deployment of the Beehive, where Application tier and Data tier are placed on different platforms, is supported.
For example, Oracle Database (Data tier) on Linux, and Oracle Application Server (Application tier) on Windows.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dima,
Yes, this will work.

Default view and date format for anonymous access in convergence calendar

Hi,
is there an option to configure default view and date format when user access to a calendar with anonymous access ?
Actually, date format is M/D and I want D/M.
And the default view is monthly, and I would like to set to 7 days view.
Thx for your help

Data View and Data Source buttons Greyed out

I have Site Admin permissions on an On Prem SharePoint 2013 site.
In SharePoint Designer 2013 the Data View and Data Source buttons are greyed out.
Can anyone shed some light as to why this is occurring?

Hi grantzre,
Could you provide a screenshot about the location you want to insert the Data View web part and Data Source?
I think you may put the mouse cursor in the incorrect place to add the data view web part, please try putting the cursor before the tag </ZoneTemplate> and see if "Data View" button is enabled, then you can insert an empty
dataview web part and then insert the data source in tag <DataSources> by clicking ribbon button "Data Source" (also click the ribbon button "Parse HTML" of the page if needed).

How to export app +underlying schema(and data)

Hi
I am trying to export my application and its underlying tables to a new system .
I want to know if it can be done together and not seperately..(export app and then export each table)
Is there away to package the app and its underlying repository?
Thanks

No....
You will have to do them seperately as there is no logical connection between the application and the tables.
Your application just has the access to use those tables and does not "own" any of them.
a) Oracle database tables/ application tables
You can export the entire schema and all the objects and data in that schema using the export and import utilities.
All these objects are owned by the schema (eg. emp under scott) and hence are related logically.
b) Oracle apex metadata tables.
All the information about apex objects is stored as metadata in database tables (FLOWS_0300 is a schema).
So, if you install Oracle apex on a new machine, all these repository tables will be created.
When you create applications / objects, these tables will have metadata for those applications.
Hope this helps,
Rajesh.

Viewset - active view and data validation problem

Hey there,
I've a problem while using a viewset (1 col, 2 rows) and the data-validation in the wdDoBeforeAction() method.
My application works basically like this:
The first view is displayed with 2 mandatory input fields. Upon the evaluation result of the entered data in these fields, a corresponding second view will be displayed. The input fields in the first view are set to read only and a button named "Change" appears. This button triggers an action which fires and outbound-plug to an empty view, so that the second view disappears and resets the "read only" properties of the input fields in the first view, so that the user can enter new data.
The problem is, that the second view contains input fields itself, which are validated in the wdDoBeforeAction() method of this view. The navigation is cancelled if an error occurs. Well, this is fine if i want to submit (pressing the button "Approve" in the second view) this data and proceed, but if i want to go back to the first view (by hitting the "Change" button), i want to discard all information entered in the second view and i dont want this data to be validated. It's quite annoying if u just want to correct the first views data but have to enter correct values for the second view in order to get through the second views checks..
I hope that's clear enough, otherwise i will upload a screenshot to clarify.
Thx in advance
Regards
Pascal

Hi Pascal,
although I wont prefer to do so for reasons of readability, you could use wdDoProcessbeforeAction to control your view-flow.
Take a look at the example, I have two Buttons with two actions, one is set on "Validate", the other is not (guess which on is the validating ).
You can get the action triggered inside the doBefore ... method and determine whether or not the checkbox is set.
So put your code to validate the input in the i(isValidting) branch and your problems are solved.
Keep in Mind: I would delegate the Validation from the view to the controller, handle the validation myself with custom coding and then check in the view controller if any errors occured.
hope that helped,
Jan

Data view and data structure

whats the difference between a data view and a data structure

Hi
<b>View:</b>
Data about an application object is often distributed on several tables.
By defining a view, you can define an application-dependent view that combines this data.
The structure of such a view is defined by specifying the tables and fields used in the view.
Fields that are not required can be hidden, thereby minimizing interfaces.
A view can be used in ABAP programs for data selection.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/cf/21ecf9446011d189700000e8322d00/frameset.htm
<b>Structures:</b>
A structure (structured type) comprises components (fields).
Types are defined for the components.
A component can refer to an elementary type (via a data element or by directly specifying
the data type and length in the structure definition), another structure or a table type.
A structure can therefore be nested to any depth.
Structures are used to define the data at the interface of module pools and screens
and to define the parameter types of function modules.

A question about UDA and Data-Forms

Hi all,
I have a couple of questions about UDA. I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3m, and when I desing a Data-Form I would need to use the UDA I asigned for the Entity dimension: is that posiible?
The other question is, when creating a Substiution Variable in Essbase I use the function @UDA (+dimension+, "MemberA"), but when using this variable in the Data-Form, it does nothing at all(in fact, it is been detected as an error). Why is that happening?
Thanks a lot

Use an attribute dimension to achieve what you are trying to do with UDA's in a data form. An attribute dimension will allow you to filter on members in the base dimension by a specific attribute the same way a UDA will. You can create the attribute dimension in the dimension editor in Planning by selecting the base dimension (Entity) and then select the custom attributes' button. Check the dba guide for a step-by-step approach.
With regards to the subvar, are you trying to add the function as a value of the subvar when you create it in EAS? If so, this is not allowed. What are you trying to do with the subvar on the form? Subvars are supported in data forms as part of the member selection for a dimension. For instance, you can set up a subvar called CurYear and set the value equal to FY11 for the Fiscal Year dimension. In the data form you can set the member selection for the Fiscal Year dimension to CurYear. When the user opens the form, the member FY11 is returned.

Best way to port all Windows XP files, applicaitons and data form my PC over to iMac and how to run those Windows apps on Mac?ns on Mac?

I have a Windows XP machine with apps, files and data. I want to get all that over to my Mac, and also run those apps under Windows XP or even Windows 7 on my Mac. Im wondering:
1. How best to get those files over to my Mac
2. How to run those apps and use my Windows based files/data on my Mac
3. How best to run Windows on my Mac....either partitiion my Mac's hard drive and boot up either Windows or MAC OS, or run some other program where I can easily switch back and forth form Windows to MAC OS, or perhaps get it all on an external hard drive, maybe partition that Windows/MAC OS and boot from that?
Thanks!

I agree you would benefit by using virtualizaiton software. Virtual Box is one alternative the commercial apps for doing virtualization are Parallels and VMWare Fusion which you also might be interested in for their support and updates.
Also you may benefit by book marking and using:
Mac 101 , Switch 101 & Find Out How Video tutorials
For your MS Office apps then I'd STRONGLY recommend using the native Office For Mac versions, you can find these on Amazon for less than $100 and then you can run the apps natively rather than having to lean on MS Windows. Also for your Financial and Tax software you also may want to use OS X apps too, for example I used Quicken for over 20 years (PC mostly and some Mac) but switched to iBank. Also for tax software I have used Quicken's Turbo Tax, this also runs natively on OS X.
In other words for your stated needs I don't see much reason to stay with MS Windows. You may have other considerations, if you do please state them, some may be real issues and some may be easily overcome.

Difference between Oracle Application Express and Oracle Forms/Reports

hi guys,
i have just use oracle apex to create some report generation tools through the web. know that this is what is known as html db in the past.
however, i have not really touch oracle forms and reports before, neither have i really seen how they work.. but soemhow i feel oracle report/forms seems to be more.. then this oracle apex.
it includes integration with web services, java and pl/sql .
but i still cant really figure out what is the actual general main difference ?
is it that for oracle forms there can be some programming logic inside , whereas for apex , it is just using what is available from what oracle provides ..
i am read oracle form white paper, but seriously, i am not a very web guy. it has alot of components that i am not familiar with.
so i hope you guys can just give me a more general rough idea.
regards,
Noob.

Hi, my .05$
... most Forms & Reports users will tend to be old installed base customers using applications developed many years ago in F&R such as insurance company cores and even banking cores. Going from client/server F&R6 to "web" F&R10g is costly as you have to license an application server and most likely need to migrate to recent versions of the DB in case the customer is still on oracle 8 (common occurrence). So many customers opt. to not migrate or to simply invest in new web enabled solutions.
Using the migration tool f&r installed base will have an easier job of migrating and at a price of whatever DB edition they are using and probably be able to do it with the same people who maintain their f&r systems provided they learn a bit about web technologies.
what might be interesting to see is performance perception of users on f&r vs. apex...

ADF application deployment and Data source configuration

Hi, we are developing an adf application . This app accessing the tables from a data base and i can run it in the integrated WLS of Jdeveloper. Now i would like to run it in a standalone WLS server. I can create a Data source in the server.
How can i tell the application to use the data source configured in the stand alone server. My understating is i have to configure it in the deployment descriptor. May i know how to this in Jdeveloper for an ADF application . Thanks .
ganesh

First of all make sure that you use jdbc data source in your application module configuration (right click on the application module and select Configurations, then edit). It should look something like 'java:comp/env/jdbc/hrDS'.
On your stand alone server you create a data source with the jdbc name of 'jdbc/hrDS' pointing to the db you like to use.
When you deploy the app, the server should pick up the defined data source.

Wouldn't environment variables like XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, XDG_CONFIG_HOME, etc be best?
Many languages' standard libraries have functions for accessing these effeciently in a distro-agnostic manner.
