Member formula IF statement syntax

Hi guys
Can someone assist me with the syntax of the IF statement on a member formula.
On the measure "Total Cost", i would like to apply a formula which calls value loaded to a series of other measures (m1, m2, m3, etc) such that if the Number of bags is = 1, then a value loaded to M1 is called, and if the Number of bags is 2, a value loaded to m2 is called.
Thanks

I think there may a better way to do what you are trying to achieve but below is the syntax for IF statement
IF("number of bags" == 1)
"m1";
ELSEIF("number of bags" == 2)
"m2";
ELSEIF("number of bags" == 3)
"m3";
ENDIF;

IF Statement in Member formula V11 -EPMA

Hi,
As any one used IF and ENDIF statement in the member formula on EPMA V11? I am using the same but it fails to deploy and I have no clue whatsoever.
Does it require an expression OpenInputvaluebox and closedInputvaluebox
Thanks in advance

Hi,
This is the member formula formula I am trying to load:
IF (@IsMbr("Local"))
IF (@IsMbr(Hsp_InputValue))
IF (@IsMbr("No Year"))
IF (@IsMbr("BegBalance"))
IF (@IsMbr("Forecast"))
"RTD" = "Apr"->"Periodic" ->&FcstYear1: "Mar" ->"Periodic"->&FcstYear1;
ELSEIF (@IsMbr("RF1"))
"RTD" = ("Jul"->"Periodic" ->&FcstYear1: "Mar" ->"Periodic"->&FcstYear1) + ("Apr"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2 : "Jun"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2);
ELSEIF (@IsMbr("RF2"))
"RTD" = ("Oct"->"Periodic" ->&FcstYear1: "Mar" ->"Periodic"->&FcstYear1) + ("Apr"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2 : "Sep"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2);
ELSEIF (@IsMbr("RF3"))
"RTD" = ("Jan"->"Periodic" ->&FcstYear1: "Mar" ->"Periodic"->&FcstYear1) + ("Apr"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2 : "Dec"->"Periodic"->&FcstYear2);
ENDIF;
ENDIF;
ENDIF;

ENDIF;
Is there a syntax error here?

IF ELSE Statement in Member Formula

I believe that I am in my final step of completing my database. But, I need to create a member formula that converts lbs to kg. I have gotten help on this question in the past and have a basic formula that works. However, I have 2 exceptions to the formula that are not successfully calculating.
This much of the formula has been tested and works when isolated:
IF (@ISMBR(@LIST(AccountCapacityTypeX,AccountCapacityTypeY,AccountCapacityTypeZ)))
"LBS"/2.2046;
ELSEIF ((@ISMBR(@List(AccountCapacityTypeA, AccountCapacityTypeB) )) and (@ISMBR(@LIST(MbrNm1, MbrNm2,"Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec","Qtr1","Qtr2","Qtr3","Qtr4"))))
@round(("LBS"/2.2046),0);
else
@round(("LBS"/(2.2046*5)),0)*5;
ENDIF
However, the following checks out when I verify my syntax, but when it is added to the above formula the formula does not load:
IF ((@ismbr(MbrNm3)) and
(@ISMBR(@LIST("Region1","ParentOfRegion1","GrandparentOfRegion1","Y2008","Y2009","Y2010","Y2011","Y2012","Y2013","Y2014","2015","Y2016","Y2017","Y2018")) and (@ISMBR(@List(AccountCapacityTypeA, AccountCapacityTypeB)))))
105;
ENDIF
IF ((@ismbr(MbrNm4)) and
(@ISMBR(@LIST("Region1","ParentOfRegion1","GrandparentOfRegion1","Y2012","Y2013","Y2014","Y2015","Y2016","Y2017","Y2018")) and (@ISMBR(@List(AccountCapacityTypeA, AccountCapacityTypeB)))))
425;
ENDIF
Members MbrNm1-4 are all stored, zero level members of the same dimension. My years, months, and qtrs are dense dimensions, everything else is sparce. AccountCapacityTypes contain both calculated and stored members. Region dimension contains all stored members. Also lbs are a stored member.
Any ideas on how to make these 2 exceptions work?
Thank you,

Hello Cameron Lackpour,
I have tried several iterations of this calc script, and gotten it to mostly work. The issue that I have is that it calculates everything correctly, but when I @remove the one year that want the calc script to calculate differently that year retrieves values for #missing as desired, but when I try to write a calc script for that single excluded year the second calc script still doesn't run for the whole condition that is defined. I don't know if any of that makes any since, but below is an example:
FIX("JOLEFINS_JCP")
FIX(@REMOVE(@RELATIVE("Years", 0), @Member("Y2008")))
*"KMT"*
IF (@ismbr(@list("MajorTurnarounds","InventoryCtrl","Feedslate/ProdMixImpct","ActsOfNat","Fdstk/RawMtlAvail",
*"OtherExtEvents","ExternalLPOs","InternalLPOs","PlndMntc","Mech/ProcLoss","AbvCapProd","Other","Actual","Adjusted","MaxDmstdCap")))*
*"MMLBS"/2.2046;*
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Published Capacities","EOY_PubCap"))
*@round(("MMLBS"/(2.2046*5)),0)*5-1.25;*
ENDIF
ENDFIX (everything in bold is calculating correctly)
FIX (@RELATIVE("Years", 0), @member("2008"))
+"KMT"+
+(+
IF (@ismbr(@list("MajorTurnarounds","InventoryCtrl","Feedslate/ProdMixImpct","ActsOfNat","Fdstk/RawMtlAvail",
+"OtherExtEvents","ExternalLPOs","InternalLPOs","PlndMntc","Mech/ProcLoss","AbvCapProd","Other","Actual","Adjusted","MaxDmstdCap")))+
+"MMLBS"/2.2046;+
ENDIF
IF(@ISMBR("Published Capacities"))
+@round(("MMLBS"/2.2046),0)/1.08;+
ENDIF This portion in italics returns #Missing . However, the loaded data ("MMLBS") does return data for this year.
IF (@ISMBR("EOY_PubCap"))
*8.75;*
ENDIF This portion seems to be calculating as well.
ENDFIX
ENDFIX
CALC ALL;
Any additional suggestions?

If Conditon in Hyperion Member Formula

Hi All,
I am developing a classic planning Hyperion Application using EPM 11.1.2.2.
I came across a situation where i need to use an "IF Condiotn" inside a member formula. I am not sure of its syntax, can some help me with that.

Hi
There is a slight difference when using IF statements in member formulas. You don't need to specify the member block association in a member formula
In a calc script
"Account"(
                IF(@IMBR(Jan))
      "member1" * "Member2";
                 ENDIF)
In a member formula
             IF(@IMBR(Jan))
                "member1" * "Member2";
                 ENDIF
Thanks

Hello Vadim,
Thanks for the reply.
I am able to process ACCOUNT_GL dimension.
Also, I am using standard TIME dimension.
I found that the virtual provider(created by using source of data for my model) too is showing the error, when I place above member formula.
I am attaching the error messae when I try to do list records in the virtual provider.
When I remove the member formula, everything is fine
Thanks

Is it being applied to plan types that don't include all the members being referenced in the formula, it could be that it validates on one plan type but not another.

How to use local variable in member formula?

Hi Expert,
We would like to use a {local variable} in a member formula, so that it can pick up the prompt from webform upon save. Would like to know if it is possible to do? If so, what is the correct syntax?
We attempted to use brace {scenario}, blacket [scenario], blacket with quote ["scenario"]. None of these work.
We are using 11.1.2.1 version, EPMA, Hyperion Planning.
Thanks in advance for your help!

One other pointer. Where did you define your variable? Hopefully you went into Calc Manager and selected <Tools>, <Variables>. From there, navigate to your application or database. Right-click on your application or database and select "New". In the bottom panel, you'll need to select your Variable Type. Make sure you select "Member", and not "Members". You cannot pass "Members" (plural) to a web input form. Also, if you want to define a variable for a custom dimension, you'll need to do it at the database level. Standard dimension member variables can be defined at the app level. (Not sure why this is the case, especially when my custom dimension exists in all plan types . . . . )
Anyway, hope this helps,
- Jake

Block creation problem in member formula

Hi,
I have a member formula as below :
IF(.....)
x = a/b;
ENDIF
where a,b have their own member formulas.
There is no issue with the calculations of x,a or b, but I am facing an issue with block creation of x.
Is there a way to handle block creation through member formulas? I know the way out through calc scripts, but i am trying to limit the use of calc scripts.
Thanks!
Note:The storage property of all three members is store. Also, a and b lie in the same intersection (same block), and x lies in another intersection.

In the following section of the dbag: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?dcaoptcs.htm...
Under the sub-section: In Equations in a Dense Dimension...
It states as follows:
In Equations in a Dense Dimension
When you use a cross-dimensional operator in an equation in a dense dimension, Essbase does not automatically create the required blocks if both of these conditions apply:
Resultant values are from a dense dimension.
The operand or operands are from a sparse dimension.
You can use the following techniques to create the blocks and avoid the performance issue.
Ensure that the results members are from a sparse dimension, not from a dense dimension. In this example, the results member Budget is from a sparse dimension:
FIX(Sales)
Budget = Actual * 1.1;
ENDFIX
FIX(Expenses)
Budget = Actual * .95;
ENDFIX
Use the DATACOPY calculation command to create and then calculate the required blocks. See Using DATACOPY to Copy Existing Blocks.
Use a member formula that contains the dense member equations:
FIX(Sales, Expenses)
Budget (Sales = Sales -> Actual 1.1;*
Expenses = Expenses -> Actual .95;)*
ENDFIX
The phrasing of that last part would lead me to believe that block creation via a member formula is possible. Though I'm not sure of the member to which that formula should be applied. Furthermore, the code looks funky in that we're fixing on Sales and fixing on Expenses, and them on the left side of the equation within the fix.
Thoughts anyone?

Attributes in member formula

I want to run a simple member formula but fix it on only entities that have a certain attribute: "Comp".
I have a BSO cube partitioned with an ASO cube with the following member formula:
================================================
In BSO:
IF("Received In Qty" > 0 )
@ROUND("Received In $" / "Received In Qty",2) ;
Else
#missing;
ENDIF
In ASO:
IIF(([Received In Qty] > 0),
ROUND([Received In $] / [Received In Qty],2),MISSING)
================================================
I need to have the member return the rolled up value of the entities that have the Comp attribute only.
So the logic in the formula would be something like this:
============================================================
In BSO:
IF(ISMBR(WITHATTR(Comp)) AND IF("Received In Qty" > 0 )
@ROUND("Received In $" / "Received In Qty",2) ;
Else
#missing;
ENDIF
In ASO:
IIF(IS(WITHATTR [Comp])) AND IIF(([Received In Qty] > 0),
ROUND([Received In $] / [Received In Qty],2),MISSING)
=======================================================================
The system doesn't allow me to save this due to syntax issues.
I don't want to pursue this if returning values for this is not even support.
Do you know how to do this. If it is a quick answer I would appreciate the help.
Thanks.

Wouldn't the fact you used the attribute in your retrieve affect the results of your query? I'm not sure if I am misunderstanding your requirement, but the formula is global, if you only want to see it applied to members with the attribute 'Comp', then run your report with that attribute selected.

Member formula returning text

I am not sure Essbase has the capacity to do this but I figured this would be the place to ask. Can you set a member formula to return text instead of a number? For example, in Excel you can set up an If statement that will return a number or text depending on set variables. Can Essbase do this as well?
We have some calculations that depending on whether certain variables are positive or negative could return a result that really has no meaning. So, if this were to be the case I would like it to return a N/A instead of the number. I can do this in Excel based on data pulled from Essbase but it would be much easier and less to maintain if Essbase was able to do it for me.
Thanks

Currently, Essbase databases can only store and return numbers. You can, however, mark the cell as '#Missing' and thus meaningless data would not be returned. The #Missing cells can have a string label associated with them (on the client if you are using Excel).

Member formula restriction problem

I have made a customized form in Capex the layout of the form is that on row side i have Line Item dimension with 5 members and their parent and on coloumn side i have account dimension with 7 members selected.
I am using a member formula on the parent of the line item member on row side and in that member formula i have restricted one of the 7 account dimension member on the column with the help of IF statement. My problem is that if i dont use that if statment the member formula works fine but it also works on the other 6 members of the account dimension (on column) and if i use the IF statment then the member fornmula does not work at all.
My requirement is that the member formula should work on the combination of that 1 member of account dimension and parent of line item on row side.
Can anybody help me with that?

Hi Nilanjan,
1) all the members are in the same hierarchy (in fact, there is only one hierarchy)
2) all these members come from different branches of the hierarchy, they are not siblings, some are parents of others, however.
The values I specified are real values which I actually get when putting the accounts in an EVDRE report. Therefore, separately in EVDRE I see the calculated value 6 for account A and the fixed value 1 for account C. So, I expect to see also the value 1 for the account B and instead I see 2 meaning that for BPC 6 <= 1.
That is why I assume that BPC does not recalculate the account A used in the account B. And that is why I assume that solve_order is the problem. And I can not make this solve_order work in any way. What are the rules of SolveOrder's usage?
Thanks for help.

Essbase ASO - How to aggregate all Parents in multiple dimensions when using member formulas

We are trying to add a few MDX member formulae on some of our Accounts in the ASO cube. We recently understood that member formulas in ASO calculate both LEVEL0 and Parent members of other dimensions, So we are trying to tell Essbase to calculate LEVEL0's only and to aggregate all other levels in all dimensions. However we are unable to get the syntax right. Below is what we so far have
AccA has below formula:
CASE WHEN ISLEVEL([Period].Currentmember,0)
THEN
AccX+AccY
WHEN ISLEVEL([Period].Currentmember,1) OR ...etc
THEN SUM({LEAVES([Period].Currentmember)},[AccA])
END
This does work fine and gives correct values for Parent members in Period dimension. But we also have 3 other dimensions like Product, Area and Entity. We tried the below but this throws an error during retrival.
CASE WHEN ISLEVEL([Period].Currentmember,0)
THEN AccX+AccY
WHEN ISLEVEL([Period].Currentmember,1) OR ...etc
THEN SUM({LEAVES([Period].Currentmember),LEAVES([Product].Currentmember)},[AccA])
END
Should we add multiple SUM commands in there? All we want to do is tell Essbase to aggregate all other dimensions to parent levels. Please help.

Sorry to reiterate the post again.
DanPressman Was wondering what would be other way to write calculations other than Accounts.
I have a case where the user wants to calculate Ending Equity and this should be calculated at level0 using the rates and all parents of entity has to aggregate.
1. Level0 of entities calculate with rates
2. aggregate its children to parent entity
I have used solve order to get it work but taking a lot of time.
Is there any other alternative way of doing it? Which other dimension i can choose to perform this calculation? This is exactly similar to productsum calculation

How to use Dynamic Time Series YTD on a calc script / member formula?

Hi,
I activated Dynamic Time Series on Essbase and would like to use the YTD function of a measure for a certain month.
I tried to use
MeasureName->YTD(Dec)
MeasureName->Y-T-D(Dec)
But couldn't use it to syntax problems. How can I call this function instead of using @Accum or @SumRange?
Thank you
Edited by: Icebergue on 10/Ago/2011 11:07

I could be wrong, but I don't think you can use DTS members in calc scripts or member formulas. As you probably know, they can be used in Financial Reports, SmartView and Excel Add-in.
You can create an alternate hierarchy in your Time dimension though:
Jan (YTD): Jan ->Jan is being a shared member
Feb (YTD): Feb+Jan (YTD) ->Both Feb and Jan (YTD) are being a shared members
Dec (YTD): Dec+Nov (YTD) ->Both Dec and Nov (YTD) are being a shared members

Problem working on member formulas in ASO cube

Hi
I was asked to convert a planning application BSO cubes into a single ASO cube.I have managed to convert one BSO Cube into ASO through EAS console and added the members in the other BSO cube throgh rulesfile.
Now i have to write the member formulas for the level0 members of Account dimension.These are very simple formulas like
if(@ISMBR("New_Seats"))
"Assets Value"="Total Asset Cost";
else
"Assets Value"="Asset_Value";
endif;
and
"Empty_Seats"=(("New Seat Additions"+"Available_Seats")-"Required_Seats");
This is the first time i am working on ASO.I am getting this error while writing these formulas
"Error(1260052) syntax error in input mdx query on line 1 at token '=' Empty_Seats..."
Help me in writing these formulas and also in selecting proper member properties.

The hierarchy is like
Account(gen1)
-> Statistical_Account(gen2)

Business Rule/Member formula for Y-T-D value

I have an account in my P&L which holds monthly movement values (e.g. Jan=10, Feb=20, Mar=10, Apr=15). Lets Call this AC123
I need to populate Balance Sheet account (TB Last) with the "Y-T-D" equivalent values (i.e. Jan=10, Feb=30 [10+20], Mar=40[10+20+10], Apr=55[10+20+10+15]. Lets call this AC345.
How can I calculate AC345 as Y-T-D(@CURRMBR(PERIOD))->AC123?
Currently I have a member formula on AC345 as follows:
IF(@ISMBR("Jan"))
     "AC123";
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Feb"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Mar"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Apr"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("May"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Jun"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Jul"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Aug"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123+Aug->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Sep"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123+Aug->AC123+Sep->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Oct"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123+Aug->AC123+Sep->AC123+Oct->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Nov"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123+Aug->AC123+Sep->AC123+Oct->AC123+Nov->AC123;
ELSEIF(@ISMBR("Dec"))
     Jan->AC123+Feb->AC123+Mar->AC123+Apr->AC123+May->AC123+Jun->AC123+Jul->AC123+Aug->AC123+Sep->AC123+Oct->AC123+Nov->AC123+Dec->AC123;
ENDIF;
But there MUST be a more elegant way to do this!!
Version 11.1.1.3
I hope the question is clear. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hmm, well one way you might do this is to a YTD hierarchy (I know you are doing movements, but sometimes balances are nice, too, and this approach lets you TB whatever with the values and get the right YTD value) in my Months/Time Period/whatever dimension.
Something like this (and I am making it Planning-centric but should work for any BSO db that has separate Years and Months dimensions):
Months
|_TotalYear ~
|___Q1 +
|____Jan +
|____Feb +
|____Mar +
etc.
And then at the same level as TotalYear I would have this:
YTD ~ Label ONly
|_Jan YTD ~
|__Jan +
|_Feb YTD ~
|__Jan YTD +
|__Feb +
|_Mar YTD ~
|__Feb YTD +
|__Mar +
etc.
That gives you the YTD values (balance or movement) but you still need to refer to the correct YTD member and that means the big IF statement still exists.
What I think you need is the @CURRMBRRANGE formula:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/currmbrrange.html
NB -- This is a guestimate on your code, but how about this:
"AC345" = @SUMRANGE("AC123", @CURRMBRRANGE("Months", LEV, 0, , 0)) ;
The startOffset value is null -- that should give you Jan. The endOffset is 0, that should give you whatever the current Month is. I think that's it. I would likely make this member a dynamic calc but that's up to you.
