Loading shared members from interface tables

Hi,
I am loading data to Hyp. Planning via interface tables. I need to load shared members. Where can i tell him that this is a shared member?
thank you very much
lubos

Will not it cause probles when loading shared members first before the original ones?
I thought that DataStorage only accpet values like StoreData, NeverShare etc.
I will try it out.
Thank you very much for your help

Add shared members to interfaces tables

Hi guys
I need to load shared members to a generic dimension using interface tables?
How can I do it?
Regards

Hi John
Thanks for your help. I can add shared member to the generic dimension called PCM_Prod, however I am getting the following issue
at validate one application that I used:
Error : Last generation 2 member of dimension PCM_Prod is Total Productos. Expected member name "NoMember".
Error : Dimension 'PCM_Prod' does not support shared members because the dimension hierarchy type is set to 'Stored'. Member: '3032182'.
Error : Shared member '3032182' cannot exist under generation 2 ancestor member 'Total Productos' in dimension 'PCM_Prod' because it does not belong to a StoreData hierarchy. Either set the dimension-level Hierarchy Type property to 'StoreData', or else set the Hierarchy Type property of generation 2 ancestor of this member to 'StoreData'
If I upload using ADS I did not get the issue.
So I do not why using interface tables I got the error.

Shared Members on interface changes of Entity or account hierarchy

Hello,
Is there any scripted way to remove 'Shared Members' from the Account and Entity hierarchy, or if not, is there any means of finding them on mass, as we have set up a database interface to maintain account and entities, but the problem is after accounts or entity change parent they leave a 'Shared Member' on the original parent, which is not desired functionality as it throws totals out on forms / reports.
thanks for your input, no blogs please as our security prohibits me seeing them.
Robert.

Thanks John, can I ask you a follow on also...
If a member had never share as its property and you used the hierarchy interface to assign it to a new would would it; -
a. Prevent update of its parent hierarchy via the interface
b. Move it to whatever new parent you deemed and remove it from its original
thanks for your input,
Robert.

Loading Dimension members from SQL Server 2005 to Essbase Outline.

Hi Everybody,
I need to load dimension members from SQL server 2005 to Essbase outline:
Option 1:
I can retrive members from SQL to text file and then using Rule files load dimension members into outline.
option 2:
Using SQL Interface in System 9.
Option 3:
I can use ETL tools (ODI, Informatica etc)
I used Option 3 frequently and familier with, But i would like to use option 1 & option 2. If anybody has used option 1/2 kindly advice with correct steps
I would be very greatful for any help.
Version: 9.3.1
Regards
Kumar N

Hi Kumar,
For Option 2:
You have to create one DSN for the particular database(SQL Server) from where you want to retrieve the data.
Then Open Data Prep Editor and From File Menu Click on Open SQL and it will ask for the DSN connection details.
Enter the DSN details and write the query....
Thanks,

Excluding Shared members from calculations

Hi,How can I exclude shared members from calculations so that shared members are not calculated twice?Regards

Hi Mayank,
Try *SELECT
*SELECT(%H%,"[ID]",HR_ACCOUNT,"[ID]<>Shift,Education_Assist")
*XDIM_MEMBERSET HR_ACCOUNT=%H%
Vadim
P.S. Or:
*SELECT(%H%,"[ID]",HR_ACCOUNT,"[ID]<>Shift AND [ID]<>Education_Assist")
Both will work

EPMA very slow to import large dimension from interface tables

I am attempting to import a dimension into the master library from the EPMA interface tables. The dimension is roughly 255,000 members. The import from the interface tables into an empty dimension member is taking close to 3 hours. CPU utilization on the EPMA server is a steady 6% (epma_server.exe) for the entire time. We are on 11.1.2.1.001 of EPMA. The rest of the suite is at 11.1.2.1. The dimension generic type. I have had the same result when importing into a local dimension. The performance degrades after about 6000 members.
Your thoughts would be much appreciated.

I have found my answer from EPMA guide:
In addition to the dimension interface tables created by the template script, you can add interface tables for additional dimensions. For example, the template script contains one set of tables for the Entity dimension. You can add more Entity dimensions as needed. For each dimension added to the interface tables, you must also include the dimension in the IM_Dimension system table so that the dimension is available during profile creation.

Way to generate sql*loader ctl file from a table?

I'm an oracle newbie. (Oracle 8i, HP Unix)Is there any way to take an existing table
description and generate a sql*loader control file from it? If anyone has already written a procedure or knows where one can be found I'd really appreciate it. We're doing a mass conversion to oracle and would like an easy way to re-write all our loads.
Thanks! Eileen from Polaroid.

Building RULES file to load shared members in Aggregate storgage outline

Hi there
I posted this yesterday (sorry, somewhat different subject description). I am trying to create an alternate hierarchy containing shared members using a load rule and flat file in an Aggregate Storage outline. One response was to remove the "allow moves" option and use parent child build in the load rule. I tried that and it did not work. i was pointed to a section in the essbase guide (which is about as clear as mud), and still cannot get this to work. First of all - can you do this with an ASO outline? If so, how? I tried a simple 6 line flat file and recreated the load rule based on the above recommendations and it will not the shared members. Can someone out there help?
thanks

Here is an example in the simplest form.
Create Aso db (duplicate members names not selected)
Create Product dimension member, set to "Multiple Hieararchies Enabled", (though probably would work if dynamic)
Create load rule, set as parent/child dimension build for product, make sure allow moves is not ticked.
Data file
Parent,Child
100,100-20
200,200-20
Diet,100-20
Assign field properties in rule for Parent.Child
Load data, 100-20 will be created as shared.
Cheers

[Error] Import metadata from interface tables

Hi all!
We're trying to update Entity dimension through import profile and we're getting the following error:
"This member cannot be inserted because the parent member has another child member with the same name" - This happen to all members of dimension.
Since the members already exist in dimension, the import process should skip them.
We already checked if there was any issue related with Case Sensitive and there is no issue.
Hyperion Version: 11.1.1.3
Anyone can help wit this?
Regards,
Luís

Hi vvipirailo,
Thanks for your answer.
Following your tip we've tried to create a new member manually with the same name and we got the same error.
We can update old member with properties in interface table without any problem.
Looks like it sees the update as a new member, instead of old member with new properties.
About the lenght of member name or aliases we don't believe that can be an issue because we only have names and aliases with less than 25 chars.
Regards,
Luís

How to load shared members into a duplicate outline using load rules

Hello, I am trying to load an alternate hierarchy into the same dimension in an outline that accepts duplicate members using EAS load rules ... there is no property for shared members so i can't specify it in the load rule .. i tried using parent child and it is not working - no shared members are loaded in the alternate hierarchy .. any ideas? would another utility make it happen?
thx

Duplicate Member Outline and Loading Shared Members

I have an outline where I want to allow duplicate member names but in some cases I will need shared members. I am trying to build the outline parent child and I cannot get it to understand the fact that I want a shared member.
Here is an example:
[market],east
[market],west
[market],other
[market].[east], nj
[market].[east], ny
[market].[west], ca
[market].[west], lv
[market].[other],[market].[west].[lv] <--- this should be shared
[market].[other],ny <--- this should not be shared
Does anyone know how to do this?

If you would like to less the charecters and if you are retrieving the data using SQL, then you could using the Substr function to restrict the characters to 80 substr( string, start_position, [ length ] )

Loaded Symbolic character from interface change into question mark (?) char

what type of variable that could store SYMBOLIC character such as
® (registered), µM (Micro)?
i create DFF (with CHAR format type) that suppose to store detail
information that has any symbolic character.
I create my data that have symbol character (the symbol display perfectly on
my Microsoft Excell 2007 and Notepad++).
Than save it as .csv, and import into interface table.
after successfully imported, all symbolic character (like above) turn into
"?" character
on forms.
does oracle e-business suite support using symbolic character on DFF?
or there must be someway to turn my .csv into readable data for symbolic
character?
please help.

Hi Sarah,
There are some special characters hard coded in OIM as # character. In my case, I made a workaround and it is working for '#' character:
1-If through “group to approver member mapping” recon we get a group that doesn’t exist in OIM, search if that group contains “#” sign.
2-If yes, then convert that group name to some temporary name which doesn’t contain # sign and create the group.
2.1-If not, follow the normal process.
3-Just after it is created, use a sql query to update the group name to the original name.
I wrote a code for implementing this and test is working fine with add, updates, delete.
My suggestion is: Open a SR with Oracle and ask them about this special character (?). If it is hard coded or not.
If it is you can create something like my idea above, but related of your password not group names.
If not , if it is just enable special characters , please follow this steps: http://cn.forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=9670344
I really hope this helps.
