Issue with Zoom- Formula option in Excel add in

Hi All,
In spreadsheet add in when I enable the option, Essbase->Options->Zoom->Formulas and then do a retrieve operation for a level 0 member having a formula in the outline, it returns the members that are included in the formula. The above works fine for a BSO application.
But when I do the same operation on a level 0 member of an ASO application that has a formula associated to it does not retrieve the members of the formula.
Can anyone help me on the above.
Thanks,
Raja

I'm guessing that the zoom in on formula does not understand MDX. IT works for the BSO cube on simple calculations because it can understand calc script language and figure out the member names. When it gets to complex formulas in BSO it can't do it any more. MDX is a different animal for Essbase and I'll bet they never thought about modifying the add-in for ASO. As far as I know there were no special modifications to the add-in for ASO

I can help you only with the placement of the icon placement -- if you right-mouse click on the toolbar, then select Customize Toolbar, you can move an icon to where you want it to be.

Issue while performing pivot in Essbase Excel Add in

Hi,
I'm faced with a peculiar issue by which I'm unable to pivot data from excel add-in.
I've verified that the Formula Preservation is disabled. Yet, i get the error 'Cannot pivot while in Formula Preservation Mode'.
I've tried reinstalling many times but the issue persists. Whats wierder is that anything i change in options gets undone once i perform a retrieve. Example, If i select 'Suppress #Missing Rows' option and retrieve any data, when i check back the options, it is deselected. Seems like the options are carried forward(if thats possible)?
Thanks,
Rahul.

do you have this issue with any workbook you are connecting or is it only with a specific workbook template that you are using?

Issue with Measure formula

Hello friends,
I am having an issue with the following MDX script. I have separated out all the IIF Conditions to make it easy to read. This is a periodic measusre.Liability, income and expense accounts appear just fine. However Asset accounts' 2011.Q3 and 2010.total values are just blank. please advise.
IIF ([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="INC",
-MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="EXP",
MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST" AND [DATASRC].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="CTA",
MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],
IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST",
(MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],CLOSINGPERIOD([%TIMEDIM%].[%TIMEBASELEVEL%])),IIF([%ACCOUNTDIM%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="LEQ",
-(MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA],CLOSINGPERIOD([%TIMEDIM%].[%TIMEBASELEVEL%])),
-MEASURES.[SIGNEDDATA])))))

Yes ZalakT . You are correct . I tried same and its retrieving blank when specified DATASRC or any dimension with ID comparison in measure formula .ie DATASRC.CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="CTA" or %ACCOUNTDIM%.CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ID")="xxxx" .
I tried following way and it retrieved periodic totals for asset accounts . ie for 2011.TOTAL & 2011.Q1 its retrieving total of base months instead of closing period's value for asset accounts .
1) don't not change PERIODIC measure formula .
2) Add FORMULA property to DATASRC .Add new member CTA_CALC to DATASRC . In formula property of CTA_CALC specify
IIF([ACCOUNT].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("ACCTYPE")="AST",[MEASURES].[SIGNEDDATA],[DATASRC].[CTA])
3) save some data in (CTA,PERIODIC) for both Asset & non Asset accounts . Retrieve same data from CTA_CALC .
let me know if it works .

Issue with Member Formula written for Balance Type

Folks,
I am facing an issue with a member formula written for a balance type dimension,
The code says
IIF( IsUda([Accounts].CurrentMember, "BalanceSheet"),
CASE
*WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[YearTotal]) THEN MISSING*
WHEN IsLevel([Time].CurrentMember, 0) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q1]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[MAR])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q2]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[JUN])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q3]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[SEP])
WHEN IS([Time].currentmember,[Q4]) THEN (BALTYPE.[EndOfPeriod],Time.[DEC])
END
,MISSING)
Outline Structure for Time dimension looks like below
+Time
--|+YearTotal
------|+Q1
----------|+Jan
----------|+Feb
----------|+Mar
The highlighted Part of the code works good for all the Measures which is With the UDA tag BalanceSheet, Except if the Measure with BalanceSheet UDA is a Parent Member.
Parent Level Measures are populated with Data(populating Dec Data) instead of showing #MISSING.
Any help on this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks

FF_5 - Issue with Account Balance option while processing BAI file

Hi All,
We are getting a runtime error while trying to process the same bank file again through transaction FF_5 with 'Account balance' option checked. And the message says 'The ABAP/4 Open SQL array insert results in duplicate database records.' with the command 'Insert_FEBPI'. This happens only when we have combination of uploaded and not uploaded statements in the bank file.
I could find a OSS note for the same issue but that was for the file format MT942. We are using BAI file format. Can some one please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Jalendhar

This is standard SAP functionality. If there are no applicable notes, then you should open an OSS message.

Issue with Custom data parameter in Excel Data Connection

Hello,
We are querying a OLAP (SSAS 2008) cube using Excel 2007 by creating a data connection to SSAS server with an extended parameter “Custom Data”. We are using custom data parameter to apply our application’s user security to filter dimension
members in Excel’s pivot table report. We have created a pivot table in Excel and the excel is including this custom data parameter along with each request that excel is submitting to SSAS.
However, when the user selects “Show Properties in Report” option for a dimension which is selected in Row-axis of pivot table, Excel is not including custom data parameter . Why this “Custom Data” parameter is not being included in
the request only for this specific case?
1. The Request which sent from Excel to SSAS when user clicks on “Show Properties in Report” option
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soap:Header><Session xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis" SessionId="AE6B294B-4983-4010-BC5F-E0896A49ECD9"/></soap:Header><soap:Body><Discover
xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis"><RequestType>DISCOVER_LITERALS</RequestType><Restrictions/><Properties><PropertyList><Content>SchemaData</Content><Format>Tabular</Format></PropertyList></Properties></Discover></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>
2. The sample Request which sent from Excel to SSAS for all other requests
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soap:Header><Session xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis" SessionId="74165AD6-C240-4634-92A1-61A400A3FC97"/></soap:Header><soap:Body><Discover
xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis"><RequestType>MDSCHEMA_CUBES</RequestType><Restrictions><RestrictionList><CUBE_NAME>RepCube</CUBE_NAME></RestrictionList></Restrictions><Properties><PropertyList><Catalog>QAV10_12thMay2010</Catalog><Timeout>5000</Timeout><SafetyOptions>2</SafetyOptions><MdxMissingMemberMode>Error</MdxMissingMemberMode><LocaleIdentifier>1033</LocaleIdentifier><DbpropMsmdMDXCompatibility>1</DbpropMsmdMDXCompatibility><CustomData>xxxxxx</CustomData></PropertyList></Properties></Discover></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>
As the Custom Data parameter is missing in 1st request our application logic is throwing a custom exception to Excel and Excel is not able to understand the exception message. Excel is sending the same request repeatedly (going into infinite loop) and the excel
window is freezed. Not able to work with excel until restarting the Excel.
Can anyone help me to resolve the above? quick help is much appriciated!

Venkat

RE: Issue with the formula

hi,
I have one formula like below.
   X = - ' &0T_CMONV& / Actuals' +
          ' &0T_CMONV& / S&OP / &ZDPTPLN1&'.
   where &0T_CMONV& / Actuals = restricted key fig. with 0calmonth and Actuals key figure(&0T_CMONV& - text variable for cal month)
     and &0T_CMONV& / S&OP / &ZDPTPLN1& = restricted key fig. with 0cal month and Demand.
   Now we get some negitive values for this key figure , the user doesnot want to see the negitive values. So we have done, Absolute value of X. But now what he says is , he wants to see the negitive values but the result of that key figure should be sum of all absolute values. So we provided to him , extra column giving the result as the sum of all absolute values. So let us say , the sum of all values of key figure X including negitive values is 50(X1) and the sum of all absolute values of key figure X is 300(X2).Now when we are using X2 in another calculated key figure it is supposed to take 300 as the value but it is taking only 50 as the value and doing the calculation. What is the reason for this ? Can't we do some calculation on 300(X2).I request some help on this issue.
Thanks ,

Issue with member formula editor in Planning 11.1.2.4

Hello Gurus,
I just wanted to add a formula for a planning application member through workspace (v.11.1.2.4), but when I tried member -> edit -> member formula... it stays there by saying the 'Loading Member Formula Editor'.................. nothing happens after that.. same case with all the members.. I am using IE.11...

Issue with date formula when running a report on the 1st day of the month

We have a formula that compares last month data against last year last month, the report runs on the 1st of every month although the report errors when it tries to run in January being the first month of the new year it tries to look for a month begining with Zero instead of looking back at decemeber which would be 12.
Does anyone any solutions for this issue?
Thanks,
Chris
Example of some formula's we have tried but none seem to work.
if {@MonthName} = "December" then year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT}) in year(currentdate)-1 to year(currentdate)-2 else year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT}) in year(currentdate)
OR
(if {@Last Full Month Name}= "December" then year({CDCCHD.CDOPDT})= year(currentdate)-2 or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastyearytd else {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastyearytd or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in yeartodate)
OR
({CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateserial(year(currentdate)-1,month(currentdate),01)-1 to dateserial(year(currentdate)-1,month(currentdate)-1,01) or
{CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in lastfullmonth)
OR
if {@monthname} = "December" then {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateadd("m", -28, (currentdate)) to (currentdate)-14 else {CDCCHD.CDOPDT} in dateadd("m", -14, (currentdate)) to (currentdate)

Chris,
Give these formulas a try...
Beg of Last Month
DateAdd("m", DateDiff("m",#1/1/1900#, CurrentDate) - 1, #1/1/1900#)
End of Last Month
DateAdd("m", DateDiff("m",#1/1/1900#, CurrentDate), #1/1/1900#)
Beg December of Last Year
IF DatePart("m",CurrentDate) = 1
THEN DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -2, 12,1)
ELSE DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -1, 12,1)
End December of Last Year
IF DatePart("m",CurrentDate) = 1
THEN DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate) -1, 1,1)
ELSE DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",CurrentDate), 1,1)
Note that the "End" formulas produce a value that shows midnight of the following day that you would normally expect to see... For example, if you are expecting to see 12/31/2009, it will show 1-1-2010.
The reason is that the formulas come out to be midnight of the day shown... So a range of 12/1/2009 - 1/1/2010 will include 12/31/2009's data but none of 1/1/2010... (12/1/2009 - 12/31/2009 would actually cut off 12/31/2009).
If for some reason your data is stored w/o time values then an adjustment would need to be mande.

Issue with SSRS Report Exporting to Excel and word

Hi,
When report is exporting in word and Excel getting format issue, but same report export with pdf there is no issue.
Regards,
Afroz

You need to be always careful when export format is Word and specially Excel. Sometimes report result looks good in Report Viewer and PDF too, but it may not in MS Word and MS Excel.
You need to understand Word and Excel limitations and align all the data regions (Tablix, Rectangles, Texboxes) in correct way.
Also, you may post the actual formatting issue that you get. (With screenshot if possible)
Please read Limitation section in below:

Issue with Capture Task Option showing correctly in MDT 2013

I am aware that having the variable of DomainJoin will prevent the capture dialog from appearing when running the task. The problem is, even when the options are greyed out due to the domain settings not being applied from a different setting in the workflow
it still breaks the task.
E.G.
I am using the database, and have my workflow as such:
[Settings]
Priority=Model, TaskSequenceID, LSettings, CRoles, RApps, LApps, MMApps, MMSettings, Default
Properties=MyCustomProperty
DataBase:
Location Settings: Overall settings for Domain join, wizard skips, etc info per gateway
Role Apps: Apps per role
Make/Model Apps: Apps specific to a piece of hardware
CustomSettings INI:
Model/Task Sequence/Default: I have tried to null out the DomainJoin settings with these variables by adding workgroup join by task ID, Model, etc and nothing seems to work. I've verified in other tasks
that these settings take place of what's in the DB, but the DB settings are still there, greyed out and causing an issue.
[X86SYSANDCAP]
JoinDomain=
JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP
[VMware Virtual Platform]
JoinDomain=
JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP
As shown below the model/TS specify the workgroup (1st pic is normal deploy, 2nd is cap) but the greyed out settings are still having an effect. Skip Capture is set to NO at each level, and when I remove the Domain from the DB it shows up correctly.
Not sure what to do besides removing the domain everytime I want to do a capture, which seems a bit unreasonable and I don;t want my T1s in the DB.

I highly recommend to always use the standard Client task sequence for a build and capture. Much more reliable.
