OBIEE and Essbase - Displaying all member names together

Hi
I hope you can help.
When we import our Essbase cubes and add the alias tables and drag the cube to the BMM layer we get a column were we can search the alias for all the member in the hierarchy, independently of the generation (let's say Account - Default where Account is the dimension name and Default is  the name of the alias table).
This is a very useful feature that I would like to extend to the member name but I cannot figure out how  to do it. All I am getting in the BMM layer is a column per generation but not one for the whole hierarchy.
My question is: Is there any way of doing what I want and how  could I implement it?
I am on OBIEE 11.1.6.10
Thank you very much for your help.
Juan

Hypercubes are cubes built for analytical purposes which you can pivot, rotate, slice-n-dice etc anyways you want and each intersection will bring back some value. That makes them super dense and perfectly suited for dashboarding purposes as well since any dynamic change of point-of-view, axis of analysis and the likes will always yield a result and you can better optimize things for performance.

  • OBIEE and ESSBASE federated queries..

    Hello all ,
    I am working on a requirement that requires configuring federated queries using OBIEE and Essbase as an aggregation layer. I am able to configure everything except for one dimension where this dimension in Essbase uses shared members. Any help /guidance is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sunil

    Thanks for the response. I did go further from that day on the issue. But this is where I currently am stuck.
    The issue is on this:;
    1. Have a Measure in Essbase at a Grain higher than then OBIEE grain for a dimension and I need to create a report which calculated based on both the essbae measure and the OBIEE measure.
    I have to create a report which would take the Essbase Measure, Divide by the OBIEE measure and display the value (Note: This OBIEE measure and the grain is only available at the OBIEE layer)
    Ex:
    Essbase Info:
    D1 D2 Amount
    x y 200
    OBIEE Info:
    D1 D2 D3 Percentage
    x y z1 30
    x y z2 70
    Desired Output
    Is
    D1 D2 D3 New Amount
    x y z1 60
    x y z2 140
    The behavior I am noticing is , since D3 has no relationship to Essbase Measure, the report results with a null for the Essbase Measure (Amount in this case). I understand this is natural but am not able to figure out any other means to address this requirement. I am exploring using EVALUATE and MDX, but am not sure, if I would be able to get the desired output.
    Thanks

    Yeah, add the Hotmail mail account back to the device.  It sounds like your missing contacts were synced to your Hotmail account.

  • Displaying HFM Member name and description in separate columns

    Hi,
    I am trying to show HFM member code(Account Code) and Description in two columns in Financial Report (FR),anyone has idea whether that would be possible in HFM reports?
    I thought of using MemberDesc but that will not serve my purpose.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I have to use that function not using grid,its like this:
    AcctCode & Description : Generally we show member name,description or both in one column,fine.
    But user's requirement is :Display Code in one column and Description in other column.
    I think you understood my problem now.

  • OBIEE and Essbase- Would you yet? Do you Yet?

    How many of you are using OBIEE with Essbase? IF you are does it give you the functionality you need? Is it better to wait for the next release where tree structures and asymitrical hierarchies are supported? I have mixed feeling about the current implementation and want to get others feedback

    Hi GlennS,
    1. For one of our projects ,we started with OBIEE with essbase, and we ran into issues with the current available version of OBIEE
    2. The issues mainly being , the available versions of OBIEE is not OLAP aware .So, team has faced issues with hierarchies..etc.Though, there is a way to make it OLAP aware, we were not pretty happy with overall experience.
    3. I have heard that next release of OBIEE is very much OLAP aware and would have no issue with essbase. So, we are waiting for the release .
    4. Others , pls share your experiences

  • MacBook Pro and 27" Display not playing nice together

    I'm having a rather strange problem with my Early 2011 MacBook Pro and my 27" Apple Display (Mini-Display port). They don't want to play nice together. The display will randomly/intermittently disconnect and turn black, then reconnect, sometimes after a second or so, but sometimes not for a good 10 seconds or more.
    - My MBP works fine on other monitors (Thunderbolt 27", 24" LG via DVI adaptor).
    - My wife's MBP works fine on this monitor.
    - Had a tech look at the monitor, his MacBook works on it fine too.
    - The combination of my MBP and this 27" Apple Display gives you the result shown in the video.
    It happens quite frequently -- often enough to make working on this combination unbearable. But I have no clue as to what's going on here.
    In "System Information" under "Graphics / Displays", the display not show up as connected to either the PCIe or Built-In graphics adapter when the 27" has turned black. When the screen is on, it shows up.
    Here's a YouTube video of the symptoms.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0C50k0189I
    I'm stumped. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Your video shows the MacBook Pro display turning blue for a few seconds, several different times. This is an acknowledgement that a display is coming (or going).
    Unencumbered by anything sensible, my diagnosis would be that you have a loose connection.
    Mini DisplayPort cables can be diabolical. When inserting, you must make certain that essentially ALL of the metal end disappears inside the computer jack.

  • OBIEE and Essbase security pass through

    Hi All,
    I'm using Essbase as a data source for OBIEE. Right now I'm trying to use Hyperion security to pass through OBIEE. I've setup OBIEE to use Hyperion Shared Services as custom authenticator and Hyperion users can log in. However, I'm having problem passing through the users to Essbase. I've changed the Essbase connection pool to use :USER and :PASSWORD. When I tried to check for global consistency, I'm getting the following error
    [38098] The password in the Connection Pool '"server"."Connection Pool"', associated with the Repository Initialization Block '"SUB_VAR_BLOCK_server"', contains the use of :USER or :PASSWORD.
    When I tried to open any existing Essbase reports from OBIEE, I'm getting this error (as expected)
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. Essbase Error: Login fails due to invalid login credentials (HY000)
    Any ideas on how to get around this issue? Thanks
    Regards,
    Gerd

    Hi Gerd,
    Could you please explain in detail how you have setup OBIEE to use Hyperion Shared Services as custom authenticator so that Hyperion users can log into OBIEE?
    Please provide the steps and custom authenticator function?
    we would need to implement it fromm scratch. So, your help will be greatful.

  • Planning and Essbase apps with same name on HSS-enabled Essbase server

    I have an Essbase app "FOO" which was migrated from another Essbase server. I re-pointed an existing planning app also called "FOO" at this new server/app using the configuration setup utility. As soon as I did this, the app "FOO" disappears from the list of Essbase apps in EAS and HSS. The Essbase .sec file now has it listed as "Client Application Type: PLANNING". This is not so good as I now can't apply provisioning etc. to the Essbase app. I need to see this in both projects, as it was before - any ideas?
    I tried:
    * A MAXL re-register of the app but you can't as it gives "ERROR - 1051494 - Re-Registeration not allowed on planning application"
    * In Planning, register the app with the HSS "Analytical Services" app but there is a bug in the GUI interface. The project name for an Essbase server always contains colon ":" characters and the GUI splits the project list on these so it's a mess and you can't select the project you need.

    You can try to mount all these mount points via NFS in one additional server and then export this new tree again via NFS to all your servers.
    No sure if this works. If this works, then you will have in this case just an additional level in the tree.

  • Frequent Error in Reports (Connection between OBIEE and Essbase)-Urgent

    Hi All,
    I'm developing OBIEE reports based on EssBase cubes.
    Sometimes (for certain reports / prompts) I get following error messages
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. NQODBC SQL_STATE: HY000 nQSError: 10058 A general error has occurred. Essbase Error: Invalid login id - request EssSetActive failed (HY000)

    My connection pool configuration:
    Call interface: Essbase
    Maximum connections: 10
    Shared logon: True (a single user / password used for all queries)
    Use Session: True (also tried false - doesn't help)
    Use multithreaded connections: True
    Does anybody have an idea - what causes these problems and how can I prevent them?
    Also i have a doubt whether this error is caused due to essbase subtitution variable which is used in my report.

  • Cs6 and retina display not working well together please help

    I just purchased a membership for creative cloud and installed photoshop and illustrator on a new retina display mac book pro. The interfaces look pixelated including the artboards. All updates are current.
    I read that adobe latest updates are optimized for retina display. I have no idea what went wrong.
    Thanks for your time

    Ask in the product forums for specifics. As a start, check the applications using File --> Get Info on teh executables. Verify, that not accidentally half res/ low DPI mode is enabled. Also check in the "About" info that you actualyl have PS 13.1 and AI 11.2, not the base install. Run the updater to obtain those latest free updated versions.

  • IPhone 4s with latest software cancels sync at random times and doesnt display all music

    iPhone 4s with latest software cancels sync at random times. When I manually manage music and re-sync it it still cancels the sync half way through, but shows all songs I manually copied on the phone within iTunes. On unplugging the songs dont display.
    Have already tried changing the language, doing a hard reset, updating the itunes software, unchecking all songs and only checking the songs I want synced, deleting the songs that the sync stops at from iTunes. Still doesnt work.
    Any ideas? Not too bothered about the syncing part if necessary I can manually move music I just need to know how to make it display on the phone when it is not plugged in to the computer?
    Dont say wipe the phone and start again thats not an option for me.
    Thanks

    Instead of deleting I just re-imported everything over the top so iTunes has the links again. Now more songs have imported but when I get to a certain group of songs it cancels the sync.
    I can see all the imported music I import on my phone but most of it is not clickable to play.
    What happened originally was I cancelled a sync mid way, since then when iTunes tries to sync it always cancels at a certain point. Is there a way to effectively clear the cache of iTunes so it doesnt remember cancelling the sync before. I have tried updating iTunes and it doesnt work. Maybe if I uninstall then re-install?
    Thanks

  • Just another data point on the Itunes/Win8 issue. My AppleTV, AppleRemote (in IP5), and Win7 machines all play well together. Sharing, control, etc all work fine. Alas, my Win8 desktop, running Itunes and sharing on, shows no sign of network life.

    A bit more detail: AppleRemote controls AppleTV properly and sees the Win7 machine's shares. The Win8 desktop has updates installed for Itunes and all drivers. Itunes runs fine but does not share even though the computer is authorized and Sharing is turned on.
    I have disabled the Windows Firewall and also disabled the MS Kernel Network Debugger. Neither AppleTV nor the AppleRemote App appear to be aware of the Win8 Itunes share at all.
    Any suggestions or help are appreciated. From the looks of the posts, it appears that others are struggling with this one also.

    I decided to keep my old 20" Core Duo iMac as a Server in the bedroom, and now use it as a television and PVR as well. I wouldn't have made much on eBay anyway.

  • Member Alias versus Member names

    Hi I have a form in 9.2 for which in the Page Section, I have 4 dimensions selected. The properties for the 4 dimensions is set to display alias names. One of the dimensions does not have an alias name and it displays the member name instead.
    After migrating the form to 9.3.1, I have not changed the member properties for the forms and this time the dimension-wihout-the-alias-name displays 'Null' since there isnt an alias name for the member.
    Is this a feature change in 9.3.1? or is it a setting I have forgotten to modify?
    Thanks and Regards
    Kunal

    Hi,
    9.3.1 does have the same functionality. If there is no alias available you should be seeing member names on forms.
    There might have been something wrong during migration. Though, even if so, it is still strange you seeing "null" on forms.
    Have you tried changing the property to show names, save and re-set back to alias and save again?
    Also, you better make sure that you've applied the latest patches for all 9.3.1 modules.
    Cheers,
    Alp
