Limit on deleting members from workspace

Hello,
I wanted to know if there is a limit on how many members that can be deleted at once from a dimension in a classic planning application. I know that there is a parameter in the outline load utility that would delete the entire dimension and would load the members from scratch from the metadata file you specify. But is there was a better way of deleting the required members apart from using the outline load utility parameter and deleting from the workspace?
We are trying to cleanup our metadata and also trying to delete some members from a dimension but it looks like it is taking ~ 40 mins for deleting ~ 3000 records. Does this sound reasonable?
Also, I am seeing some strange and unexpected behavior while performing these operations. When I am selecting a parent member (that has ~ 3000 child members) and hitting delete, it would show like it's doing something in the status bar on the browser but after a while it would disappear and the page doesnt refresh. It is neither showing the success message nor is it showing any error which is confusing as it's not telling me if it did the delete or if it didn't do the delete. So, when this happened I went and checked the dimension and the parent level member was still in there without getting deleted. Then I tried deleting a different parent member and then encountered an error after a while saying -
An error occured while processing the page. Please check the logs for details.* (Can someone please let me know what's the name of the log file that I need to look and where?)
Another time it threw an error -
You are trying to change data that has been changed by a user on another server. Wait a few seconds and try again. If you continue to see this error message please contact your administrator.*
So basically I am seeing all sorts of different things happening and the deletion process is not going smoothly.
Please share your thoughts on this.
Thanks.

Depeding upon your version the log file location will vary.
in 11.1.2.x version you can check the logs under
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9Planning-sysout.log
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9Planning-syserr.log
<epm drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\EPMSystem\servers\Planning0\logs\Planning0.log
you can also mention an operation with outline load to delete (update which will update the members, delete level 0, delete idescendants, delete descendants)

Deleting members from Planning application

Hi everyone,
I need to delete about 600 members from a planning application. I dont want to clean up the load file and do the reaload once again. Is there a way I can delete load a file with just 600 members and they get deleted from the outline?

Thanks John for sharing your opinion. One of the senior consultants helped me out with this. The solution was fairly simple -
All the 600 members were children of different parents. So it was difficult to cherry-pick all of them. What we did is, we created a load file with 600 members (to be deleted from outline). We put those 600 members under one parent; somewhat like this
TempParent    member1*
TempParent    member2*
+.+
+.+
TempParent    member600*
Once I loaded this file to through load utility, it grabbed all those 600 members from their previous positions and placed them under TempParent*. Then I deleted TempParent.
Although I would like to know more about the solution you suggested. Is there an example on web that you can refer me to ??

Delete Members from Planning web Using HAL

Hi All,
I have loaded approx 150 members under a Custom dimension (Customer..All of them are level 0 with never share property) using HAL. I haven't refreshed to essbase. Now I would like to delete these all 150 members and need to load fresh customer dimension members.
The issue is how can I delete all the loaded 150 members from Planning. ( Its very time consuming to delete 150 members from Planning web) Can that be done using HAL.
Please suggest
Thanks
Madan

Yes it can be done with HAL, you would just supply the parent,member a source file and then set the operation port to "Delete Descendants"
e.g.
Parent,Child,Operation
Acc1,Acc12,Delete Descendants
The operation should be able to use the following values
* Update - adds, updates, or moves the member being loaded
* Delete Level 0 - deletes the member being loaded if it has no children
* Delete Idescendants - deletes the member being loaded and all of its descendants
* Delete Descendants - deletes the descendants of the member being loaded, but does not delete the member itself
Cheers

7.5 NW: Uunable to delete dimension members from the entity dimension

Hi,
I would really appreciate a solution to this. We are planning on implementing an IFRS consolidation using the SAP IFRS Starter Kit. We have created a copy of the IFRS Starter Kit, without any data. In order to customise it for our purposes, we have decided to keep the sample dimension members in Accounts, Flow and AuditID but delete the data in other dimensions. We have managed to delete the sample dimension members from the Time, Inter-company and Conoscope dimensions but are unable to do it for the Entity and RateEntity dimension.
Can anyone please explain why this is happening? There is no data in the application and so, why is this happening? We are on Service Pack 5.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Before going into the BPFs, i am sure you would have already checked, I would do the following:
-Try to process the entity dimension in offline mode. I have seen this happening with some dimenions that i know there is absolutely no transaction action. Just check processing the entity in offline mode. Do not untick 'take the appset offline'.
- You would have done this. Double check for the transaction data.
- Regarding BPFs, its not easy to check this. we had this situation earlier. Please go into the backend and in se16 you will find all the BPF tables with UJB*
There would around 10-12 such tables. Have alook in them. Not all tables need to be looked into. But please have a check there.
- Also check if entity has been referenced to any other dimension. Its good to check if you have INTCO dimension to see if it is referenced there.
Thanks,
Sreeni

Users being deleted from workspace

Hi there,
two of my users have been removed from a folder by the system
Removed: Bernd Loeschner
Nov 30, 2010 5:16 PM by System Actor. LMS-JPE-MT-AG
Removed: Peter Goldig
Dec 1, 2010 1:06 PM by System Actor. LMS-JPE-Opitz
Can you identfy why?
I am the only admin from Oracle to those Workspaces.
Thanks, Daniel

Interesting,
This can sometimes happen when a user is removed from a group -the system will try and remove them from the workspace used by that group. If they are in multiple groups they can sometimes be removed from workspaces that are used by a group with the same membership but different purpose.
Can you see them to add them back into the workspaces?

Unable to Delete Files From Bridge CS4

I am trying to delete file from bridge and all the sudden I am getting the message that I dont have permisson to delete file. I have done several troubleshooting methods and nothing works. Deleted prefs, cache, checked file permisions, repaired HD permissions, reset workspace, turned off startup scripts, etc..... Anyone had this problem or have any idea what may be causing this?
Thanks,
Colby

Ok I can delete via bridge using a different user account. So its bridge/user
account but not sure what the solution is. Would it be best to remove/install
a new copy of bridge?
I don't think reinstall Bridge is the solution. You might first want to try
this:
Quit Bridge, from user library preference folder delete the Adobe bridge
plist file manual to the trash.
Then restart Bridge again with holding down option key and from menu choose
refresh preferences.
Try again, if no luck then consider a better user check then only disk
permissions.
You can start with the original install disk from MacOs. Restart from this
disk and start with a check and repair disk and check and repair disk
permissions.
You also might consider an other disk utility like Disk Warrior or Disk
Tools Pro but they are not for free.
If not the solution you might consider to migrate your user to a new
account.

With icloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from camera roll. I run an older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. Can I transfer pics from i stream to camera roll to allow a non-icloud back up to my PPC? Precious photos are close to 30 day cut-off

With i cloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from Camera Roll to make space knowing I would have them backed up on icloud via Photo Stream. I now find that my older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. I have an ipad3 too, which of course does. I want to copy photos from Photo Stream back to Camera Roll on the phone so that I can back up "old school" to iphoto on my ancient mac. The controls seem to suggest that as an option but when I select multiple photos in Photo Stream and select "Save to Camera Roll" the photos do not appear on Camera Roll as expected. I am running close to the 30 day limit and do not want to lose hundreds of precious photos (or have to email them to myself individually). Can the ipad3 help at all? Any ideas good people? Dan

If only it were that easy Winston. I connect with a USB cable, iphoto opens and I can only see the photos in Camera Roll, not Photo Stream. There does not seem to be a way of aceessing other files in the phone from iphoto and, as in my initial message, I can not transfer the photos to Camera Roll on the phone. My iphone and ipad software is up to date, but my iphoto is '08 version 7.1.5 with my mac running 10.5.8 which is the best I can do on the PPC without messing everything up. I dont have the dough for a new mac or I would have gone for that option...am I stuck?

How can i delete pictures from iCloud?

i need to delete some pictures from my icloud back up, but i can find a way to do it , can someone show me how to, with out erasing the whole back up?

The Photostream is a really nice new feature with iCloud. However, it isn't perfect. My main issue with it is that there is no way to control what gets synced to your other devices. For instance, every image that gets shot with or saved to your iPhone, goes right to the Photostream. Once on the Photostream, it goes directly to my other devices. Sometimes, I save a photo to my camera roll, or take a screen shot, and sometimes I shoot a really bad photo that is too dark or all blurry. I usually delete these from my camera roll, but that has no effect on what gets sent to the Photostream. Once an image hits the camera roll, it automatically goes to the Photostream. This is an issue when I go to my other devices, such as my Macbook Pro and Aperture, where it automatically shows up on my Photostream there, and worse, if I have it set to automatically import, those (unwanted) images go right into Aperture. Of course I can delete them there, but it all makes for extra work. At the same time, I guess I don't have to keep the Photostream on, but that solves nothing and then doesn't give me access to my photos in the cloud.
I'd like to see an option that would allow you to pick and choose what gets sent to the Photostream. That way, I could shoot pictures with my iPhone, go through them, delete the ones I don't want, and then beam the ones I do want to keep to the Photostream. This would be much more logical and efficient for someone like me.
I may be in the minority on that, and I do see positives to having everything go to the Photostream automatically in that sometimes you delete an image that you then want back, and this does give you an instant backup mechanism, even if only during the duration of the 1000 photo limit (which is more than enough to make a decision on individual photos).
The system isn't perfect though, because for every lousy and unwanted photo that goes to my Photostream, it is potentially kicking out a great and wanted image. All-in-all, I keep my master images in Aperture stored on an external drive, and then backed up on multiple other drives, so it isn't as though I'm losing any images, but still... I guess you can't really treat the Photostream like an album. It is a fleeting album if anything. 1000 images is a lot, but I think it would be better if Apple increased that amount.
Anyway, all food for thought.

HT4946 Can I back up my iPhone 4S to my ipad 3 (64 gb)? I do not have a computer. I deleted pictures from my iPhone and added then to the ipad, but now I don't have enough space in iCloud to backup either device. Why not?

Can I back up my iPhone 4S to my ipad 3 (64 gb)? I do not have a computer running Mountain Lion. Our desktop still runs Tiger, so I purchased the 3rd generation iPad with 64 gb thinking it had had plenty of room to backup my iPhone photos. I used a camera connection kit and transferred about 1100 old photos from my camera roll on my iPhone to my ipad. I then deleted pictures from my iPhone and now my camera roll has only 357 photos. However, in the Settings, under "About" it says I have 2147 photos. Why? I only have a total of 216 photos in all my albums. However, now I don't have enough space in iCloud to backup either device. Why not? Any help, any advice, appreciated please! I spent a long time on the phone with Apple today and they couldn't solve the problem.

iCloud only give so much space for free storage, then if you exceed the limit of 5gb you have to pay for additional storage.

My iPhone 5 suddenly started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP accounts

Yesterday, my iPhone 5 started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP email accounts. I use the native Mail app and have three POP emails set up on my phone. The number of messages downloaded across all of them is over 1,000 so far and date back over several months. One of these is a Yahoo account, the others are work email accounts provided by two different hosting companies. I have not changed anything on any of these three accounts at the server/hosting level. I also run an IMAP account on my phone, which has not been affected, so this is obviously a POP-only issue. I started to delete the messages only to discover that older messages were downloaded in their place. There appears to be a cap of 250 messages downloaded at a time, but there's no way to change this in the phone's settings (this used to be a feature, but disappeared some time ago).
I'm on iOS8.3 (upgraded a month ago with no affect on email). I have not changed any of my phone's email settings, so I don't understand why this has happened out of the blue. I have checked the phone's email settings and there doesn't seem to be a way to limit the number of messages downloaded.
Does anyone know:
a. why this has happened, and
b. how I get it to stop?
Thanks!

Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

I want to delete songs from iTunes Match by unchecking them in my iTunes library on my Mac. Is this possible? If so, how do I change the necessary setting(s) in iTunes or iTunes Match?

I want to delete songs from iTunes Match by unchecking them in my iTunes library on my Mac. Is this possible? If so, how do I change the necessary setting(s) in iTunes or iTunes Match?

I have seen this page, but it seems that this involves deleting songs from my iTunes library in order to remove them from iTunes Match. I want to keep them in my iTunes library, but not in iTunes match (I am over my limit for songs in iTunes Match, and would like to decide which songs to keep in iTunes Match).

Deleting Songs from Nano 7 - Problems!

What should be a simple matter is made so complex by Apple that it is pure torture.
Why is it so complicated to delete songs from Nano 7?
I've tried the "uncheck the boxes" and re-sync nonsense. Yes, it got rid of some songs -- but it ADDED songs I NEVER checked!
And after multiple re-syncs, without those songs checked, these ghost songs keep appearing.
Frustrating with a capital F -- and a reason this is my last Apple product. Ever.

Are you loading songs using automatic syncing? It sounds like it, but I'm not sure. Using the checkboxes next to songs is not the appropriate way to remove songs.
Select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of buttons going across, near the top, starting with Summary. Click on Music next to Summary. This is iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box for Sync Music, if it's not already checked. Since you want to select what does and does not go on the iPod, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Below that, select the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the iPod.
If you want to make this simple, you can try this approach for setting this up. Create a new playlist in your iTunes library. You can call it "iPod Songs" (or whatever you want). To this playlist, add ALL of the songs you want on the iPod.
Back on the iPod's Music screen, select "iPod Songs" under Playlists; you can select other things if desired. When you click Apply, all of the songs in your selection, including the "iPod Songs" playlist, sync to the iPod. Going forward, when you want to remove songs from the iPod or add songs to the iPod, just update that playlist in iTunes. The next time you connect the iPod (or click the Sync button), the same changes are automatically synced to the iPod.
That should solve your problem with deleting songs. Just maintain the playlist in iTunes, and iTunes maintains the iPod automatically. You can, of course, maintain more than one playlist in iTunes, and sync them all to the iPod (up to the capacity limit of the iPod). Be sure to checkmark all of those songs you unchecked in your iTunes music library.
Note that there are other buttons next to Summary and Music. Those are for setting up automatic syncing for those other types of iTunes content.
If you are using the manual method (dragging songs to the iPod in iTunes to load), and not automatic syncing, please post back.

Outlook 2010 not deleting messages from Deleted Messages

I have Outlook 2010 standalone on a 64-bit Win Pro system. I have settings to empty Deleted Messages at exit and to delete messages from the server when downloaded by this instance of Outlook (POP3).
BUT ... when I exit Outlook, I get the dialogue about ok to delete messages, I accept deletion, and when I restart Outlook, not only are the messages back in the Deleted Messages folder, but the messages I deleted in the last session are back in the Inbox
and Junk Email folders! Manually emptying the Deleted Messages folder does not solve the problem.
And yes, I have checked that I have my POP3 settings in Outlook correctly set.

Could you just check this?
In Outlook 2010 Click the File tab, Click Account Settings, Click on account settings again, Hightlight existing email account, click change, click more settings..., click Advanced tab, in Delivery section uncheck box "Leave a copy of message on the server.",
click OK, click next, after test email has been sent click close, click finish

Outlook 2010 autoarchive does not delete items from server

I have read similar Qs & As, but I don't think they apply to my circumstances.
I use Outlook 2010 with Windows 7 32 bit for a GMAIL IMAP account.
My email pst file is 7GB in size and I think this is affecting performance. I'd like to auto-archive all emails more than 15 months old to a separate pst file, and to do this every 14 days. I've set up
1) file/clean-up/archive all folders according to their auto-archive settings/OK
2) Options/advanced/auto-archive
run every 14 days
delete expired items
archive or delete old items
move old items to c:\... my archive folder.
The auto-archive fires up automatically at the right time (I've been testing using a 1 day interval), but despite all this, it still doesn't delete emails from the IMAP (Gmail) folders, and I have emails going back to 2010.
How do I get this to work please? I don't want my IMAP folder to increase in size for ever - is there a practical limit?
Simon Brew

What are your gmail settings? Gmail will archive messages that Outlook deletes from the server unless you change the setting and tell gmail to delete them. (It's under Forwarding and POP on the settings page at gmail.com.)
You can configure gmail to only provide the most recent 1,000, 2000, 5,000 or 10,000 messages - leaving the older messages archived in the gmail mailbox.
Do you have the Gmail \ All Mail folder subscribed? That duplicates all of your mail - unsubscribe it to reduce the file size.

If I use home sharing, may I delete songs off my itunes or will that delete them off of all shared devices? For example, if songs are in my library from another family member that I do not want, can they be deleted without deleting them from theirs?

I have recently started home sharing with my family. I was wondering if I could delete music on my laptop's itunes or if because they are linked it would carry my actions over onto the other devices within home sharing. I don't want my itunes to be filled with my family members purchases, but would like to make sure that if I delete music on mine that it will not delete it for them as well.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
That depends what you mean. Deleting content from your library won't delete anything from anyone else's. The content you delete from your library will not be available for homesharing with others though.
