Loading Metadata to HFM Classic from FDM

Hi,
Can anyone please explain is there any possibility to load Metadata (Members) in HFM Classic Application using FDM.
If so please explain in detailed.
Thanks in advance

FDM is not designed to load metadata but data. It can be done but would involve a fair bit of custom code (including a wrapper dll) as the metadata load functionality is not exposed by the HFM web SDK. I'd look at alternative method for doing this and stick to loading data via FDM.

Loading metadata and creating users in FDM

hi friends ,
1) I am using HFM and FDM9.3.1 Can we load HFM metadata using FDM.If yes pls tell me how?
2)Pls tell me the steps to configure shared services with FDM.Can we configure only msad and ldap with FDM?
Is there any role of vb authentication scripts for shared services user or is it only forusers created in user management in FDM?

Hello,
Currently FDM can not load metadata to HFM. You would need something like MDM/DRM as that is their job.
FDM 9.3.1.x only integrates with MSAD/LDAP/NTML providers. While SharedServices leverages the OpenLDAP software, it may be possible. I would recommend creating a Support SR to obtain the process.
Fusion Edition (11.1.1.x) directly integrates with SharedServices.
Thank you.

DIM: how to load metadata to HFM

Hi,
We want to load metadata into the HFM application through HFM adapter in the informatica PowerCenter (v8.1.1).
The data could be loaded to HFM, but the adapter couldn't load metadata to build HFM dimensions dynamically.
Are there any method to load metadata to HFM in the PowerCenter?
Thank you in advance.

I reccomend you contact Informatica, for it is their product stopping you from doing the loading not HFM itself.

Calling HFM rule from FDM

Hi Experts,
I am working on version 11.1.13 and I am new to FDM. Just wanted to know if I can execute a HFM rule from within FDM before exporting the data to the target HFM application?
I know this is a possibility with the Essbase adapter but just wanted to check about the HFM adapter and how to do it?
Thanks!!

The Data Protection feature built in to FDM will do this for you. It allows you to input a string value which will protect all intersections in HFM that have data which contain that string. You can also flip the comparison operator to do the converse i.e. protect all data in intersections that does not contain the string. What FDM actually does is extract all data that meets the data protection criteria specified and appends it to the dataset you are loading thus preventing data from being overwritten. All you really need to do is make sure that the string value you use in the criteria is unique and will not be found as a substring anywhere else in the intersection (as FDM treats the intersection as one long string).
When I have implemeted it in the past we usually have discrete memebers on the C4 dimension that identify where data has been source from. Hope that helps.

Loading metadata into HFM application through EPMA - Beginner

Hello,
I have an HFM application which was created in a classic format and then later on converted to EPMA. I would like add more metadata in it now either manually or any other way. I tried to create a few members manually through dimension library but when I see it in the actual application, the members are not seen. Is there anything else to do like deploying it or anything? It would be great help if anybody could tell me how to add members manually and in bulk.
Thanks

Yes. You'll need to deploy the application to see the changes outside of EPMA. Since EPMA is your metadata management tool now, you'll make the changes there, and then deploy (or load) it to the application. There are several ways to make metadata changes in EPMA:
1) Directly in the Dimension Library as you have done
2) Using the Grid Editor functionality in the Dimension Library (right-click any dimension label and you'll see the option)
3) Using the EPMA File Generator (this is best for building new apps and regularly occurring changes)
4) Using LCM (this is my preference for bulk changes)
Shoot an email to the address in my profile and I'd be happy to get you some further info.

ODI: Load metadata into EPMA ("non-classic") Planning app

Hi all, I know about loading metadata to classic planning/essbase application, but tell me please if its possible to load metadata to non-classic planning app (I mean created in Architect (in application library) and see it in dimension library?
maybe there is some workaround for this situation
thanks in advance

Version 11.1.1.0.0. We have successfullly used EPMA Interface Tables to manage our planning metdata. We went this direction to avoid introducting another ETL/ELT tool (ODI) into our clients infrastructure. At the time, we didn't realize that ODI was not supported for EPMA (only Classic). I'm thinking of logging an SR to confirm if this limitation will be addressed in a later version of planning. The EPMA administrators guide provided enough detail to help us get started with Interface tables. The one area that created an issue for us was how EPMA ordered the load of members in the EPMA Interface Hierarchy table. Parent members need to be loaded before children. If this ordering is not followed , you will get "Orphan" errors. We could not find a documented process to control the load order, so we need to devise a workaround. Our workaround involved creating a view against the EPMA Interface table to order the retrieval of members so that parents appeared before their children. The Oracle CONNECT BY clause works well to handle this requirement. To make this view visible to EPMA you'll need
to replace the base hierarchy table with the view by updating the EPMA IM_DIMENSION table. EX:
update IM_DIMENSION set C_HIERARCHY_TABLE_NAME = 'HS_Entity_Hierarchy_VW' where C_DIMENSION_NAME = 'Entity';
Alternate hierarchies also require separate EPMA Import profiles. Since only one set of EPMA Interface tables can be used to load a single dimension, you'll need a process that does the following for each alternate hierarchy.
1) Clear EPMA Interface Tables
2) Load EPMA Interface Tables
3) Execute EPMA Import Script
Finally, it's not clear how the I_LOAD_ID column (i.e. load id) is initialized in EPMA Interface tables (by default it's NULL). A load id is somehow assigned each time a Import profile is executed. A load id can be used (among other critiera) to clear EPMA interface tables. However, when I execute a Import profile, EPMA did not assign a load id (I_LOAD_ID was still null). Not sure if I_LOAD_ID is user assigned and is static? Again, very little documentation on how to manage the load id (what is user defined verses what is managed by EPMA).

Error Loading Metadata

Hi all,
I'm using HFM 11.1.1. While Loading Metadata in HFM client, i'm facing following error message.
"This is a BPMA application. This functionality done through BPMA"
Can anyone give suggestion to resolve this issue.

You will not see the phrase "classic" application anywhere in the user interface, though you will see it in the product documentation. "Classic" simply describes an application created using the pre-version 9.3.1 mode where you created an application profile and metadata file using the Win32 interface. This generates either an *.app or *.xml file which you can load directly into the application either through the web or Win32 interface.
"EPMA" is a term introduced with the EPM Architect module in version 9.3.1 (and really improved with the 11.1.1 and 11.1.2 releases) which allows the application to be created in the EPMA web interface only, and also create and manage metadata there as well. The module does allow for an externaly created metadata file to be loaded (*.ads format) but only into the dimension library and not directly into the HFM application. Once the metadata exists in the dimension library, you "deploy" it into the HFM application, and so it is an indirect rather than direct load.
Product functionality allows for a "classic" application to be created and then upgraded/converted to an EPMA application. You can do this if you want to start in "classic mode" or if you want to convert a previously existing application up to EPMA. Once you convert an application to EPMA mode, you cannot convert back to classic mode. You can have a mix of EPMA and classic applications in an environment. The EPMA applications will show up in the application library but the classic ones will not.
You can learn more in the HFM Administrator's Guide, under "Managing Applications", and by also reading Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Architect Administrator’s Guide.

Loading Metadata using API or VB scripting

Hi,
We are trying to explore the options for loading the Metadata in HFM Classic Application , is there any option to load the metadata using a HFM API or script ?
Please help !!!
Regards
Vkunda

Review the HsvMetadata object which is documented at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hfm_objects.pdf
There is a load method for Classic applications.

Hi All,
I am unable to load Cell Text (Memo a/c) from FDM to HFM. We use Import>validate>export function and use Upsload fucntion in the file to import the data. No errors are shown whilst loading the file and everything gets load except these Memo accounts The issue never arose when we were on version 11.1.1.3. We have recently migrated to 11.1.2.1.

Problem loading metadata from ODI to HFM ( Error code: 0x80040154 [Class...

Hi Experts
I have an issue when I load metadata via ODI to HFM. I get this message:
Error code: 0x80040154 [Class not registered
com.hyperion.odi.common.ODIHAppException: Metadata load failed. Error code: 0x80040154 [Class not registered
After some search on the net I see that this is due to a patch which is already been installed(ODI 10.1.3.5.5). The HFMDriver.dll is renamed as HFMDriver32.dll and HFMDriver64.dll rename as HFMDriver.dll.
Patch 9377717: ORACLE DATA INTEGRATOR 10.1.3.6.0 PATCH
1. I have reversed the HFM application TestApp into target for ODI and everything seems fine in the operator
2. I have created a simple source flat file for the Account dimension
3. I have created an interface to the Account dim. and verified the mapping with no errors
4. The process stops when trying to Load the Metadata to HFM(Step 5 / of 7)
5. When I search the log I see the Error code: 0x80040154 [Class not registered]
Does anyone have any idea why the interface does not load the metadata?

This instructions given us by the support have fixed the problem on the first topic.
1. Unregister the adapter by opening the command prompt and changing the path to
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ RegSvcs.exe /u C:\Hyperion\products\FinancialDataQuality\SharedComponents\AdapterComponents\fdmAdapterCOMadmin\fdmAdapterCOMadmin.dll
and:
RegSvcs.exe /u C:\Hyperion\products\FinancialDataQuality\SharedComponents\AdapterComponents\fdmFM11xG5C\fdmFM11xG5C.dll
Please verify the correct path to the dll's before proceeding
2. Re-register the adapter using the 64 bit version of RegSvcs, C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\RegSvcs.exe <PathToDLL> i.e. ..\Hyperion\products\FinancialDataQuality\SharedComponents\AdapterComponents\fdmFM11xG5C\fdmFM11xG5C.dll
N.B. Do not re-register the ComAdmin.dll because that is not a 64 bit component.
4. Open the FDM workbench and configure the adapter by right clicking the adapter -> Configure and re-entering the username and password.
Regards.

Error while loading data from FDM (EPM 11.1.1.3)

Hi,
We are loading data into HFM from FDM. While loading data from FDM it is throwing an error which as below.
"Load data started: 5/20/2012 9:30:45 PM
Line 27, Error: Cell for Period Mar is not an input cell.
Actual,2011,Mar,YTD,ENT_JJ,JPY,A23232323,ENT_J76;[None];[None];[None];ICP_Load;3463437"
There were multiples lines which are throwing error.
After doing some checking we found that when we unpost ICP data in HFM we were able to load data from FDM. We have not locked the ICP entities because that will restrcit to load data. But we are not able to understand just unposting the ICP values why we are able to load data from FDM. Also we have not closed the period in HFM.
Kindly suggest, what could be the possible reason.
Thanks
Edited by: user12121146 on May 27, 2012 5:29 AM

one way to figure this out, would be to open a grad at the same POV.
It will rule out a couple things.
If it is locked, you'll visually see that it is locked. (will be grey I believe)
If it is an invalid intersection, you'll see that as well. (will be red)
If you do not have access to the cell, you will see that if you look at cell status, it will say NO ACCESS.
That should help you figure out what is happening, the quick and dirty way.

Issue with Loading COMMENTS in HFM ICT Module from FDMEE

Hi,
We have a requirement wherein we can load all the HFM ICT Transactions from a Flat File using FDMEE. We are facing 2 issues:
a. Firstly FDMEE Target application allows us to map only COMMENT1 as a dimension for FDMEE. There is no Dimension/Place holder for COMMENT2. So how do we do this?
b. Secondly, COMMENT1 is by default mapped to ATTR11 of the Target Application in FDMEE. Now, ATTR3 is only VARCHR2(20) whereas the actual Comment Size supported by HFM ICT Module is 256 charachters. So how to we ensure that we can load a larger comment from FDMEE?
Thanks!

FDM does not perform the consolidation function in HFM. It will caculate a Base Entity if you Enable Consolidation, Force Calculate, and Force Translate in the Integration Settings.

You need to check whether this function(PunchoutSiteInfoVOImpl.initQuery(Ljava/lang/Integer;)) exist in this class file or not.
Simply decompile PunchoutSiteInfoVOImpl class , check initQuery function exist with parameter Integer.
