KM for File to Hyperion Planning

All,
I am trying to load a file to a Hyperion Planning application.
I have successfully reverse engineered the planning application, to a planning data model.
I am now loading back the Entity Data store (from the reverse engineered Planning data model), to a different planning application with the top level members/dimensions created.
I have imported the Integration KM (IKM File to Hyperion Planning), in the integration project.
I am using a file exported from DRM as a source, and have a File Data server, related topology and a data store created for it.
I have created an interface, and done the below:
- Selected the option "Staging Area Different from Target"
- Selected the File Logical schema I created as part of the topology for the File source.
- I have mapped all source columns to target ones, the target has more columns than the source, but I have un checked the "Active Mapping" box on the unmapped target columns.
- On the Flow tab, I have selected the IKM "IKM File to Hyperion Planning" on the target.
- No CKM imported or selected on the "Controls" tab.
When I execute, nothing gets updated or inserted or deleted.
I am not sure what the problem is, can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong, or where I should start looking for clues.
THanks,
ANindyo

John,
The execution shows successful in the Operator, no errors.
But it looks like nothing was inserted, and thats why there were no errors.
I have enabled logs for the environment, tools->preferences and Environment->Logs, but no logs get generated there.
Were you referring to the same thing?
Thanks,
Anindyo

Configuration file for smart view for Hyperion planning

Hi,
We are using SmartView for accessing HyperionPlanning application. Please let me know how can we change the provider to use shared services and enable planning it for logging to file. Also which properties file is used for these configurations and where can we locate the configuration file on Hyperion planning installation system.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi,
Checkout the below metalink from Oracle.
Hyperion Strategic Finance Will Not Connect Via SmartView (Doc ID 1561484.1)
Below Solution as per doc ---
1. Run the installation for the HSF Web Application component on the Foundation server where weblogic is for HSF Server.
(Be sure the HSF Web Application component is also installed on the the HSF Server, if separate from the Foundation server as well.)
2. Clean up any failed deployments in the WebLogic Console by deleting the HSFWeb Server from WL Admn
3. Configure the new component on Foundation (target server).
4. On OHS server run configtool and perform the WebServer config task to configure OHS for HSFweb
5. Restart OHS and start HSFWeb

"Marked for Delete" flag in Hyperion Planning

Does anybody know how can I set "Marked for Delete" value by ODI? I have reversed planning model by RKM, but it hasn't field "Marked for Delete".
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi John,
In that case, what is the best practice for deleting a Hyperion Planning shared member.
I have to delete a shared member manually from Planning front end.
Is there a better way for deleting planning members?
Cheers,
RSHi, the Marked for Delete is nothing to do with deleting shared member.
You can can delete members by using the Operation column and it set to Delete, you will have to provide the member to delete and the storage type of Stored.

JAPI/Hyperion Planning

Hello;At the organization where I'm at, we have several departments. We have users from each of these departments inputting data and we like them to be able to aggregate the results from their input as necessary.I've created a small app using the Visual Basic API which passes a parameter (the user's dept) to a substitution variable on the server for use in a calc script for that dept. This works well for the non-Hyperion Planning users.We also have a group of users using the Hyperion Planning web client. Does anyone know of a good approach to the same thing modifying the .JSP's and making calls through the JAPI? If anyone is doing this, I'd sure like to know more about how you got there. Thanks!Rick [email protected]

I have been having the same issue, and I'm looking for a real solution. I need to pass the dept from the planning web form to a calc script. I find it very inefficient to calculate a large portion of the database each time a department is updated and do not want multiple forms/calc scripts to manage. If anyone has a solution, I would love to hear it. Even if it involves modifying JSPs or using the JAPI. This is a major omission of functionality and probably will result in very slow performance and user dissatisfaction. I have over 2000 departments and the org structure changes frequently, so the best solution would be to pass the current deptid to a generic calc script. Please HELP!!!...anyone

How to migrate dimension member text files from ODI to Hyperion Planning

Hi
We are having an issue with ODI that it was not connecting to planning.
Later with some instructions from oracle, we have tried to set some RMI path in websphere and we tested the RMI connectivity test.
It was successfully connecting to planning.
Then we want to test that ODI is connecting to planning or not.
For this I think if anyone can send the doc relating to dimension member upload thru ODI to hyperion planning using text files, it will be helpful.
Appreciate if anyone can help us on this.
Please communicate to [email protected] for doc sending.
Thanks
Rajesh Reddy

Go through His(John's) earlier blogs which very clearly explains how to get connected & keep the ball rolling.
If you're so scared to use the existing connections, you may want to-
i) Set up new Master & work repository;
ii) Do few quick configurations from Topology Manager;
iii) Create your project, models, Interface;
Let us know if something isn't still clear.

Remove access for each member of a particular dimension from Hyperion Planning Applciation

We are trying to remove access for groups for each member of a particular dimension( which has more than 1000 members) of a Hyperion Planning application. We are going through Administration->Manage DImensions -> member , Under security click view and select the group and then remove access But the problem is there are more than 1000 members under this dimension , so it will be time consuming to go to each member and then remove access for the group. Is there any other way we can do this?
Also is there a way to bulk delete native directory groups from Hyperion Shared services, instead of deleting each native group manually one by one?

The reaso we want to go for Relational tables is that when we did Exportsecurity utility for that planning application and imported back the SecFile.txt without doing any changes ,still it errored out giving errors like :
"The following access not imported:-"PLN-ORG-0278-999 Bureau Strtgc & Oprtnl ""PLNning",0278-999,READWRITE,MEMBER due toInvalid user name found in the file."
It is erroing out even if we did not do any modifications to the secfile.txt.
Moreover there are more than 1000 members for which we have to remove access permissions manually one by one. It is a tedious process.
So we are looking at other options like , which relational tables have got Native directory groups information, and the sql queires we can execute to remove the unwanted Native directory groups from Shared Services?

Pre-requisites for Drill-Down from Hyperion Planning to Oracle GL

I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2 for maintaining budgets. I do comparison of actual vs budget in Hyperion. I export actual results from Oracle General Ledger (11.5.10) in flat file and upload to Hyperion planning using FDM. I maintain mapping in FDM for flat file and the Hyperion members.
Q1) Is it possible to drill down actual numbers from Hyperion planning to Oracle General Ledger via FDM?
Q2) If yes, what are prerequisites for using drill-down functionality?
Can anyone please answer and refer some link/material that may help me in setting this up?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks
But when i try to log in i m getting error bellow"
Failure of server APACHE bridge: No backend server available for connection: timed out after 10 seconds or idempotent set to OFF."
So do u have any other reference plz
thanks

How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.

HI,
How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.i.e., how to find license limit in hyperion planning 11.1.2.1.
In Essbase propreties, the system is showing maximum planning users could be 65535.
what would be the number for concurrent scenario?
Thanks
Giri
Edited by: Giriprasad on Jun 18, 2012 2:18 AM

The number of users would be based on your license agreement with Oracle, the system is not aware of your license agreement so it is up to you to stick to it.
Cheers

BI IP --- Planning function for File Upload

Hai All,
In BI IP , When I am trying to load the data (text file) by using Planning function for File Upload. I am getting an error message When I am clicking on Update .
Error Message : Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: <unknown>, value <unknown>).
In Text file I am using Tab Separation for each value
Anyone help me out.
Thanks,
Bhima

Hi Bhima
Try one of these; it should work:
1. If you are on SP 14 you would need to upgrade to SP 15. It would work fine
2. If not, then -
a] apply note 1070655 - Termination msg CL_RSPLFR_CONTROLLER =>GET_READ_WRITE_PROVIDS
b] Apply Correction Instruction 566059 [i.e: in Object - CL_RSPLFR_CONTROLLER GET_READ_WRITE_PROVIDS,
delete the block: l_r_alvl = cl_rspls_alvl=>factory( i_aggrlevel = p_infoprov ).
and insert block - l_r_alvl = cl_rspls_alvl=>factory( i_aggrlevel = i_infoprov ).
Goodluck

How to lock data independently for several groups in Hyperion Planning?

I 'm developing a forecast application using Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 where the users shall be able to enter their monthly forecast numbers. We have two groups of users. Each group may have up to two forecast updates per month. The groups are independent – say, Group A may have one update for August and they want the numbers to be there by August 10th, while the Group B may have two updates for the same month with the first update to be completed by July 20th and second – by August 5th. Nobody knows in advance how many updates they are going to have for the month and when they are going to have them. Nothing should prohibit the users from updating their forecast numbers for the future months – say, they may enter their September forecast in July.
Managers of both groups want to make sure that users don't change forecast numbers after the month close. If they plan to have two updates per month – they want data from the 1st update to be locked (become read-only) before they have 2nd update, and data from 2nd update locked after the month close; if they plan to have only one update per month – they want it locked after the month close.
Any suggestions how I may structure the dimensions of this application to make sure that if I lock first August update for Group B on, say, August 3rd, the other group still can have it open until August 10th?
Thanks!

Hi John
Well i have working knowledge in ODI, i did whole complete cycle and i did customization project for Oracle EBS to Data warehouse though ODI.
What, I am NOT able to figure out How to LINK Hyperion Planning Outline to Oracle EBS HR Tables. cause in Hyperion Outline i m able to view Dimensions Not particular Column to map with EBS HR Table (column).
Eample:
In EBS HR we have Employee Number in Per_all_people_f but in Hyperion Planning Dimension is ONLY Employee.
Your response highly appreciated.

Best Practice for Hyperion Planning : Essbase or Dataform for Adhoc Analysi

Hi,
with Hyperion Planning, you are able to start an Adhoc Analysis from an Hyperion Planning Dataform or from an Essbase cube?
What is the best way / pro / contra ? thanks in advance
.... I 've juste notice that when you delete the dataform the Retrieve doesn't work anymore :-( .... and with Essbase you get some "un-useful" dimension as HSP_Value
Regards
xavier

A couple of other things that go with Planning as the data source:
1) You have access to all of the non-Essbase data -- think SmartLists, text (okay, it's there now in Essbase, but not from Planning applications) fields, supporting detail, etc. If you want users to see that relationally stored data, the only other way to get it in Excel is to run a Financial Reports report into Excel (or hack the tables and write SQL to pull the stuff -- did that pre 11x and it's too much work).
2) There's a performance hit when going against Planning, just like there is when Planning is the data source in Financial Reports.
Using a form to limit dimensionality - isn't that what SmartSlices are for? I guess it's another way to get to the same place. Although you have to administer the SmartSlices, I would imagine they would break less often than a form might. Having said that, once built, how often do you delete a form?
It's really nice that ad-hoc analysis from forms are now possible, but I've always thought of it as nice feature to have alongside data entry, never as the primary path into Essbase analysis.
Just my $0.02.

Hyperion Planning vs Oracle Financial for departmental budgets

Hello,
I was wondering what the consensus is between using Oracle Financials vs. Hyperion Planning for variance analysis purposes.
My contention is that HP is a best-in-breed budgeting/planning tool and should be used to house our departmental budgets/forecasts and that actuals should be fed from Oracle Financials (G/L) to Hyperion Planning for variance anlaysis purposes. Some of my piers disagree. They feel the budgeting/forecating data should be pushed to Oracle Financials for variance analysis purpose. They claim it will be easier to provide drill-back capability into the ledger to find the answer to their variances.
I really couldn't disagree more - to me the analytical capability of HP trumps any drill-back capability provided by Oracle Financials. In addition, if we use an ETL tool like FDM to feed actuals from Oracle into HP, can't I drill back to the transactional data (actuals) via FDM? In addition, since we budget at a summary account level, how can you push summary planning data in HP to detailed transactional accounts in the G/L - pushing "one to many" doesn't make sense to me.
Anyway, just looking for some expert opinions on the subject. Much appreciated - Thanks

Hi,
We are currently in the final phase of implementing Oracle Financials and Hyperion for the same purpose that you have described in your post. We use Oracle Financials to record actuals and then transfer it to Hyperion under the scenario 'Actual'. While the budget/forecast data in only entered/saved in Hyperion. There are several financial reports for variances that are generated out of Hyperion. So far, this arrangement is serving us pretty well. I second your point that in Hyperion, we can easily compare summary level data. We have Hyperion reports that do variances calculations for sub-totals. In fact, we are also using HP reports for consolidated statements such as Balance sheet, Income statement etc. The actual data for these statements is coming from GL.
As for drill through functionality (from HP to sub-ledger details in financials), we are in process of implementing FDM and use it for both (1) loading data and (2) drill through.
Hope this helps.
