Issue with Smart View Help Contents using v11.1.2.0.01

Hi there,
I just installed v11.1.2.0.01 (Build 003) of the Smart View add-in on a MS Windows XP SP2 PC with MS Office 2003 SP3.
Unfortunately, the Help Contents in MS Excel does not seem to work as whenever I select Smart View > Help > Contents, nothing gets displayed. Selecting Smart View > Help > Technical Support and Smart View > Help > EPM Documentation takes me to various links on the www.oracle.com site.
I uninstalled then re-installed this specific version a few times but to no avail. I even checked the contents of each subdirectory where Smart View has been installed but could not find any Help files whatsoever.
1. Has anyone ever encountered this issue?
2. If yes, what do I need to do to resolve this issue and get the Smart View Help to be displayed?
Thanks in advance,
JBM

Well, reading the documentation about knowing where to find the documentation would have actually helped. At the bottom of page 10 of the Smart View ReadMe document, the following is mentioned under the "Documentation Updates" section:
"For Smart View online help to be available, the Shared Connections URL on the Advanced page of the Options dialog box must contain an EPM Workspace URL."
This question is now answered.

  • Planning Data from formatting issue with Smart view in 11.1.2

    Hi,
    We are facing one strange issue in Smart view.
    We have created a dataform in Planning as follows:
    Columns:
    FY10 FY10 FY10
    Budget Budget Budget
    Jan Feb Mar
    But when we open this in Smart view, we are getting the columns as follows:
    FY10
    Budget
    Jan Feb Mar
    i.e. year and scenario are spreading across months instead coming at each column level.
    We are using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2, Smart View 11.1.2 and Office 2003.
    Please help us.
    Thanks,
    Naveen Suram

    Are you saying you want the dimension members FY10 and Budget to be repeated in each column?
    I think that can be done for Ad-Hoc Analysis mode, but not where you have opened up a Planning form.
    Cheers

  • Issue with smart view add-in in MS word 2003

    Hi,
    I have smart view 9314 and office 2003 installed on my machine. I can see hyperion tab in excel and it works fine but i can't see hyperion tab in word or powerpoint. Its not in disabled items for word. I tried to add HsTBar.xla in word using Templates and Add-Ins option but it throws error: Invalid add-in. Any info to resolve the issue would be highly appreciated.

    Office 365 Web Apps are not supported and cannot be supported as there is no platform for add-in's in that environment. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13602
    Most Office 365 uses cases and users end up with Office installed on the desktop and at that point we are talking about normal Office Support. Right now it is up to the Office 365 administrator to determine the version of Office to be used by their 365 users. http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-us/office365-enterprises/ff637585.aspx
    Short answer is that Smart View does not support Office 365 Web Apps and there are no plans to support the Web Apps.

  • Issue with Smart View when trying to connect to Planning/Essbase

    Hi All,
    I'm facing this issue with Hyperion 11.1.1.3 & 11.1.2. In Excel, I've created a connection in SmartView by giving the URL as http://ServerName:8300/HyperionPlanning/SmartView. After that i'm able to see "Servers" and when i started expanding that, it displayed the server name. When i clicked on the server name, it should display the Planning Application name right ? instead of that just a Cuble symbol is displaying. Do i need to make any settings for proper display of the Planning Application names ? This is perfectly working fine with HFM. I'm able to see HFM application names. Pls. advice

    I was trying for shared conenction this morning and it was not working. Now all of sudden it started working. Even i've checked now, the private connection is also working fine with the URL http://planningserver:8300/HyperionPlanning/SmartView

    Well, the thing I always forget and have pulled much hair out over is to add the essbase server access to the planning group.
    Check on that, and I will loosen the rocks in my head to see what else I can suggest.

  • Crystal Ball 11.1.1 with Smart View 11.1.1.4 and Planning 9.3.3?

    Hello,
    I have installed Smart View 11.1.1.4 in a 9.3.3-environment, customer using SV with Planning 9.3.3 through independent provider.
    This is working fine.
    Now we're looking at Crystal Ball with Planning.
    The thought is to use the "Simulation and Forecasting workbooks" data source in Smart View 11.1.1.4.
    a) Is that possible, installling Crystal Ball Fusion Edition, using it with Smart View 11.1.1.4 and Planning 9.3.3?
    b) Where can I find Crystal Ball Fusion Edition 11.1.1.x for download? Seems like the Oracle edelivery site only contains 11.1.2.1 ...
    Thanks in advance.

    a) Is that possible, installling Crystal Ball Fusion Edition, using it with Smart View 11.1.1.4 and Planning 9.3.3?I am not sure but I know these are the supported data sources for SV: Essbase, Planning, Financial Management, Hyperion Enterprise, Financial Reporting, Interactive Reporting, Production Reporting, Web Analysis or Oracle BI EE
    b) Where can I find Crystal Ball Fusion Edition 11.1.1.x for download? Seems like the Oracle edelivery site only contains 11.1.2.1 ...Here is the link:

  • My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using.

    My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using. I use a cheap Logitech Stereo Headset H130, but since there is only on audio plugin on the computer, I purchased a 3.5 mm 4-pin smartphone audio adapter thingy. That allowed me to put both my the sound coming to my headset & the microphone on my headset onto one wire. Everything worked wonderfully when running the Mac OS since they probably have support for that kind of stuff. The problem is though that once I try to use the same method in Windows 7, the OS doesn't recognize my headset microphone at all, but, instead when recording my voice decides to use the built-in mac microphone. Using this adapter still allows me to hear from my headset, but not use the microphone and that becomes a problem. It might be so that Windows 7 doesn't have support\drivers for that... How should I continue from here on out? Any advice?

    From what I have read from others on here you may be out of luck. You would need the appropriate Windows drivers for the Cirrus chip in the Mac and no one has been able to successfully locate them. Apple wouldn't support this since Windows is an optional install.
    Sorry to bring the bad news.

  • Issue with PR conversion to PO using ME59 withqty of similar line items

    Hi All,
    I'm having an issue with PR conversion to PO using ME59
    I have a PR with the following line items with all same details except quantity
    ex 1
    Mat  Qty  Unit Plant   St Loc
    M1   1    EA   P1      S1
    M1   29   EA   P1      S1
    The PR brings in the Unit automatically
    EA is Base Unit Of Measure -Material Master
    BT is Order Unit           -Material Master
    Conversion
    30 EA = 1BT
    When i convert this PR to PO using ME59N then i see 2 lines items
    M1   1   BT
    M2   1   BT
    Its doubling the qty (2 BT = 60 EA)
    ex 2
    Mat  Qty  Unit Plant   St Loc
    M1   1    EA   P1      S1
    M1   2    EA   P1      S1
    M1   27   EA   P1      S1
    The PR brings in the Unit automatically
    EA is Base Unit Of Measure -Material Master
    BT is Order Unit           -Material Master
    Conversion
    30 EA = 1BT
    When i convert this PR to PO using ME59N then i see 2 lines items
    M1   1   BT
    M1   1   BT
    M1   1   BT
    Its 3 times no
    PR Qty = 30 EA
    PO qty = 3  BT = 90 EA
    I guess during conversion to PO
    It sees PR Line item 1 and looks for another line items with similar fields ( in our case it sees line 2 in ex 1 and 2 and 3 in ex 2)
    i adds the qty 1 and 29 in ex1 and converts the total 30 each to 1 BT and when it moves to 2 line it see item1 and again creates 1BT but the line item 2 was already considered and it should be ignored
    Similarly if you see ex2 then it creates 3 limes with 1 BT each
    Let me know how to resolve this issue
    Thanks

    As for std SAP ME59N - make sure there is not rounding value is activated in the Material master as well as info record
    If this is not the case than check any custom code is activated for ME59N
    becuase generally in many compnay when they use ME59n they don't want the same material from diff PR to create the diff line item in the PO so using the custom logic in the user exist they trick the code
    it might be the case for you where you have issue.

  • Unable to connect to essbase server with Smart View

    Hi,
    I'm having trobules connecting Smart View in order to make some adhoc analysis, however I could perfectly establish connection with Planning and navigate through web forms in excel.
    The address I'm using to connect to Essbase is: http://<server>:19000/aps/SmartView and the planning url is http://<server>:19000/HyperionPlanning/SmartView
    I've been already using those urls in other server with version 11.1.2 but now that I'm trying to connect to a server with v11.1.1.3 I just can't. Whenever I connect to Planning in order to see the forms a prompt appears with the message saying that "I'm connecting to a server with an older version" but I could perfectly work with the forms. When I connect to essbase, I can see the Applications but I just can't make any adhoc analysis.
    Could anyone have any idea of what could be happening?
    Thanks in advance
    Edited by: user9143843 on Jan 13, 2011 4:58 AM

    Thanks for your response, I've already checked that port and keep getting the same message "Common Provider null datasource error". I can see the applications but can't get any further than that, no analysis adhoc, no smart slice, only disconnect :(

  • Issue with tables :( Plz Help!

    Hey all!
    Never posted before on this forum and pretty new with
    dreamweaver. So I'm having the strangest issue with dreamweaver
    tables. I bought a template that I'm modifying by my self which
    isnt all that hard haha. But Here's what I ran into. Whenever I put
    one table and then another one under it and another one under it
    and I insert txt or pics in there and save it, after I upload it
    and preview it, I can only see the info from the first table.
    Everything else under it, wont show up.
    So no matter where and on what page I do it from that
    template, if I put more than 1 table down, it'll only show the info
    from the first and top table and everything else in other tables
    under it, wont show up at all (after I upload it) even thou it
    looks good on dreamweaver itself :(
    Is there an option to enable or disable something? Plz help,
    thank you all!

    The bad news is that if you want to do anything remotely
    complicated with
    Dreamweaver you will have to learn a fair amount about HTML.
    I would virtually
    guarantee that when you put your new table in something is
    going wrong so that
    one or other table is not being defined correctly.
    As you are modifying someone else's template there is
    virtually no way to find
    out what is happening other than to examine the HTML. It is
    unlikely that
    fiddling with any Dreamweaver settings will make any
    difference.
    Every table should start with something like:
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0"
    cellpadding="5"
    bgcolor="#e0e0ff">
    <tr align="center" valign="middle">
    <td width="9%"><a href="#Bottom">
    and end with:
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    You can have more or less as many columns as you like in a
    table, (<td> ...
    </td>
    And more or less as many rows ( <tr><td> ...
    </td></tr>) as you like, but
    unless you get up to special tricks you should have the same
    number of columns
    in every row. You can put anything you like -- images, more
    tables, whatever --
    inside a cell e.g.:
    <td> image, blah, table </td>,
    but you mustn't put any content anywhere else, and every
    opening definition
    (<table>, <tr>, <td> must have a matching
    closing definition in the correct
    order.
    You can nest tables more or less indefinitely, but
    Dreamweaver Design View
    sometimes blows its top if you go more than three deep.
    HTML usually doesn't produce any error messages, but the
    effect of omitting any
    of the steps in building a page is quite unpredictable.
    Sometimes a major error
    will not produce any visible effect, but on other occasions a
    minor error will
    send the page completely haywire.
    You may care to have a look at:
    http://www.corybas.com/Technical/Wrapping.htm
    This has a series of demonstration pages illustrating what
    happens when you try
    to display increasingly complicated page layouts on narrow
    screens.
    Once you have learnt to interpret HTML, you can often learn a
    lot by inspecting
    the source code for the page (in IE click view, then Source).
    This works with
    anybody's page, so you can look at the source code for my
    pages if you wish.

  • Issue with SharePoint foundation 2010 to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0

    I would love some help with this issue.  I have configured my SharePoint foundation 2010 site to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0  I have a test account set up with lab.acme.com to use the ACS.
    When I log into my site using Windows Auth, everything is great.  However when I log in and select my ACS token issuer, I get sent, to the logon page of the ADFS, after selected the ADFS method. My browser prompt me which Certificate identity I want
    to use to log in   and after 3-5 second
     and return me the logon page with error message “Authentication failed” 
    I base my setup on the technet article

  • Issue with Overall Result - Help

    Hello,
    I have a query with two restricted keyfigures (0amount used) as actual and forecast. While drilldown by fiscal period, the overall result shows totals for actual and plan separately. Business point of view, they want to have total of both (actual + remaining months of forecast). Is that possible?. If yes, anybody help me on this.  We don't want to create CKF to sum both the key figures.
    Thanks
    Viswa

    Appreciate your response Arun. Did the initial work of getting both actual and plan. Everything works and report is live now knowing that the problem of  overall result when we drill across by fiscal period. The report is very flexible/dynamic columns and users can enter multiple periods and any versions to use for various purposes. Looking for a solution without making changes to the query, somehow we can achieve/fix the overall result summation. Want to keep creating a CKF as last option.
    Thanks

    Configured all of the above components successfully.
    i'm connecting to Essbase through this URL http://<server>:19000/workspace/SmartViewProviders . it shows the login window and allow me to get in. but the drop down box is empty. no server listed.
    Please let me know what I'm missing.

    I am also getting same problem as gaurav,
    I checked,"http://<servername>:13080/aps/SmartView" Analytic Provider Services also running.
    instead of Server name i tried localhost, ip address, and computer name.
    but still not getting anything in drop down, even "Add New Server" Option also.
    I thought this may be because Analytic Provider Services was configured after Shared Services. But for that i followed the steps:
    1. Stop the Analytic Provider Server and Foundation Services.
    2. Open the EPM System Configurator through Start -> All Programs -> Oracle EPM System -> Foundation Services -> EPM System Configurator.
    3. Expand Hyperion Foundation and only tick the option 'Deploy to Application Server'
    4. Click Next through the Configurator until complete.
    5. Restart the Foundation and Analytic Provider Server Services.
    6. Open Excel, connect to the Shared Connections.
    But problem Continuous.
