Hi,
Please provide the query for PO Provision Report(Purchasing).
Please help.

Suresh

Hi Sumit
Writing an Alert will be the easier way of doing it. There are lots of seeded Alerts provided for Purchasing Application. Purchasing user guide provides the list of Alerts predefined. You can go through them and write one for your situation accordingly.
Let me know if you face any difficulties.

Non Standard Provisioning Report

Hi All,
Once a month we create a report for management using the standard ... Administration -> View Report function in Shared Services. A requirement has now come through to have more detail on the report, details that the standard report doesn't provide. Is there a way using xml or scripting that I can create a report that will fit Management's requirements.
I am currently investigating the CSSImportExportUtility
Regards,
Fraser

I am also on 11.1.1.3 and have to create a user report every month just like what you are describing. I was never able to figure out a way to include first and last names via any of the EPM tools so we had to come up with a manual method. It's long and ugly but here is how I get the report created:
Run the provisioning report.
Save the .csv to desktop then open.
Create a new worksheet (Sheet 1).
Copy columns A – E into Sheet 1.
In Sheet 1 insert 2 new columns before column E.
In Sheet 1 select column D then in the Office ribbon select the “Data” tab and click on “Text to Columns”.
In the “Convert Text to Columns Wizard” dialog box select the “Delimited” option.
Next select the “Other” option and enter the “@” symbol in the blank box. Click “Next” followed by Finish.
Delete column E which has the extracted data.
Open Hyena (LDAP browser) and in the tree navigate to the “All Users” group.
Right click on “All Users” and select: Query Active Directory >> Users (Detailed - General).
Once the “All Users” data has filled the right pane click the “Tools” menu option and choose “Export to Microsoft Excel”.
Choose a location and name for the exported text file and in the “Columns To Copy” box only choose the options selected below. Be sure to check the “All Items in List Window” option under Data Source.
Excel will automatically open with the data populated. Select both columns and copy.
Insert a new worksheet in the original file (Sheet 2) and paste the copied items.
Perform the same “Text to Columns” modification.
Select all cells with data except the heading cells. Select “Formulas” from the ribbon and choose “Define Name”.
Give the selection the name “XXXXX” then select “OK”.
Change worksheets to Sheet 1 and select cell E6 then select the function option.
Choose the function “VLOOKUP”.
Enter the following arguments and choose “OK”:
Lookup_value - d6
Table_array - XXXXX
Col_index_num - 2
Range_lookup - false
Copy the formula to the rest of the cells in the column by dragging the bottom corner down to all cells.
Navigate back to the original worksheet and insert a column before column E.
Navigate back to Sheet 1 and copy column E.
On the original worksheet, Select column E, right click and select “Paste Special”.
Choose the “Values” option and click “OK”.
Regards,
-Bob

Hyperion Shared Services Provisioning Report Automation

Hi,
Provisioning Report feature in Shared Services gives pretty much everything I am looking for. I need to send this data to another system that monitors entitlements on a daily basis. Is there a way to run the provisioning report in batch mode?
Plan B is to use LCM, but I haven't had any luck yet in exporting entitlements using it. Does LCM export external users provisioning information? Below is the export xml I am using.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package>
    <LOCALE>en_US</LOCALE>
    <User name="User" password="pwd"/>
    <Task>
        <Source type="Application" product="HUB" project="Foundation" application="Shared Services"/>
        <Target type="FileSystem" filePath="/HSS-Shared Services"/>
        <Artifact recursive="true" parentPath="/Native Directory/Assigned Roles/HFMApps" pattern="MYHFMAPP"/>
    </Task>
</Package>
Appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ethan.

If you want to automate a provisioning report then probably looking into the Java API would be a good option.
LCM will be able to extract the external users provisioning against applications in CSV format though it will be a seperate CSV per application.

Automate Hyperion Provisioning Report generation

Hi All,
We are planning to automate weekly Hyperion Provisioning Report generation from shared services. Is there a way to schedule it ? Kindly advice.
Regards,
Andy

Hi Andy,
I dont see any utility or way to reach out to report automation, as a workaround i can provide you with below query which can give the provision information which would be simlar to Provision Report.
Run the below query on Shared Services Schema.
select p.application_id,p.createdtimestamp,c1.name,o.name,o.locale from
css_provisioning_info p,css_groups c1,css_role_locales o
where p.member_identity in c1.identity_id and p.role_identity in o.identity_id and
o.locale='en_US' and p.application_id like '%XXXXXX%'
order by c1.name
and You can automate this to get a report pulled at our desired timings.
Thanks

Role Access : SS Provision Report vs Workspace Security Extract

Is this normal, we are using EPM 11.1.2 Classic Metadata.
I Setup a user 123049, provisioned him HFM access to "Reserved" only.
I also add the same user to a native group called FM_Loc_Reviewer which has provision access to 7 Roles: Approve JE ,Consolidate,Create JE, Load Excel Data, Post JE, Reviewer 1 and Save System Report on Server.
When i extract security from workspace it has user, 123049 showing up with the combined provision of his id and the group he belongs to. Is this a te way it is suppose to be? In HFM 4.02 it would only show his access
Thanks
From Shared Services:
User@Directory     Role     Inheritance Information
123049@CompanyA     Approve Journals     FM_Loc_Reviewer
123049@CompanyA     Consolidate     FM_Loc_Reviewer

123049@CompanyA     Reviewer 1     FM_Loc_Reviewer
123049@CompanyA     Save System Report On Server     FM_Loc_Reviewer
From Security Extract:

How to setup provisioning report rule

Hello, I can understand that you can get configuration status from SPA2102 using a http//server/somedirectory/file.xml, I have tried that but nothing happening. DO I need to handle the POST from the device (how?) or I can only get it after requesting it?
The bottom line is I need help on how to monitor whether a device has downloaded the configuration file from my http server.

I have gone through the guide and manage to make config files and have the devices retrieve them, but the section on report rule is very short and not much is described.
I read somewhere in the provisioning guide that one can purchase Remote configuration (RC) unit from cisco. Any idea how I can do that?
Thanks.

Oracle roadmap for Interactive Reporting

Hello Gurus,
       This is just an opinion I need from you guys.
      Currently, there is System 9.3.1 in which only Interactive Reporting is in use. Now, client has decided to migrate from 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.2.
      I was just going through Oracle roadmap for IR. I am just confused about future of IR. It seems Oracle is not much enhancing IR in EPM product suite.   Rather they are improving IR through OBIEE.
     This is a case where client is using only IR from Hyperion product suite & want to migrate the same.
     What is better path?
     Hyperion 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.2 or Hyperion 931 to OBIEE ?
    If its better from 931 to OBIEE, what are high level steps? Also how can we migrate Users, provisioning , reports to OBIEE?
     Please correct me if I am going wrong here.
Thanks.

It comes down to an issue of maintaining compatibility with current software versus having a product that actually works.
I upgraded from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.1 (On MS Windows Server 2008 R2/SQL Server 2008 R2/Windows 7 64-bit). Here are the changes:
IR will now export to a version of Excel that's 10 years old (.xlsx) rather than 20 years old (.xls from Excel 2).
Service management is done through the web and is at a finer grain. This really simplifies service management. The small services restart very quickly so I am comfortable restarting one at lunch rather than waiting for a maintenance window.
Names of functions have been made more obvious and meaningful (for example, you can now open a job instead of retrieving it). This is a plus and a minus. If you have been using the system for a while you'll initially have trouble finding things.
The new version is incapable of handling non-trivial queries developed in the UI. Several documents developed in 9.3.1 and 9.3.3 using derivable queries and append queries work fine. The inevitable minor changes required as business adapts to the world, however, are not possible. For queries of any complexity, IR sends the aliases (like the names of the queries seen in the section list) to the SQL Server. Of course, SQL Server can't find objects with those names so the queries fail. My solution is to use stored procedures. At that point, I can migrate to any other (non-Oracle) product, so I'm actually happy they've pushed me in that direction.
For large local results queries, the system will run out of memory if the query is run with UAC turned on and logged on as a non-admin user. Oracle says this is because the new version has more features and, therefore, uses more RAM. Oddly enough, the queries run fine when run as an admin with UAC turned off because they don't use as much RAM. It looks more like a compatibility problem than more features. Again, my solution was to push the work to SQL Server by developing stored procedures.
I was testing 11.1.2.2 while planning an upgrade and found:
There are more new bugs than the bugs that are fixed.
No IE10 compatibility (documented). Since we're skipping IE9 and moving straight to IE10, my main reason for upgrading (IE9) is gone. IE10 compatibility should be in 11.1.2.3 near Christmas 2013.
Recommendation: TEST EXTENSIVELY. Paint a clear picture for management showing that newer isn't necessarily better.

How to Generate a Report for a list of Users in Shared Services.

I am using Hyperion 9.3.1 version.
I have around 120 (MSAD) users in shared services and now i want to generate a report which tells what all access is given to a particular application for these users. Can anyone let me know the steps how to acheive this.
Regards,
Vijay Krishna.

Hi,
Have you tried generating a provisioning report in Shared Services, have a read of :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_cas_help/provrep.htm
If that doesn't suit your requirements then you could always have a look at using CSSImportExportUtility to export provisioning to a csv file. The utility is located in hyperion\common\utilities and has a pdf on instructions how to use it.

While serching user provisioning in Shared Services it says................

While serching users provisioning in Shared Services it says...............
Operation cannot be completed.
We are able to search users in the directories but ...not able to see their provisions!

Are you trying to look at user provisioning Reports ?
Please elaborate

Security report with native roles and the roles they have access to.

We need a security report that shows the Native/Custom Roles and the roles that they have access to.
So, an example would be the role US_Acct, and the report would show what roles that has access to (Post Journals, Consolidate, etc).Can this be done?

Export the Provision report from Shared Services.
Upload report to Excel or Access.
Build Tables to show what tasks each Role has access to.
Build a report that links the provision report and the xref tables.
You should also do this with Security Classes.

Task List Access Manager Role in Shared Services

Hi
The documentation says this role "Assigns task lists and tasks to other users". I have assigned this role to a group (in Shared Services), I have given that group Manage and Assign access to the Task List (in Planning), and have even done a security Refresh.
Yet, when I go in as a user who is in that group, I do not see the Assign Access button in Manage Task Lists.
Is this a bug or have I missed a step?
We are on 11.1.2.1
Thanks!

Oracle VM Server for SPARC Management Platforms

Upon doing some nominal research, I see that the Oracle VM for x86 platform is significantly more robust (at least at first glance) with regards to migrations/interface/etc. Where is the equivalent of Oracle VM Manager for SPARC? Is the Oracle Enterprise Manager with Virtualization Managment pack the tool that most people are using? Our virtualization offering, centers around the market share leader with regards to x86, at least at current. We would like to boost our product line with a similar service built on SPARC but it seems as if the product is too young to do that? I'm hoping that I'm wrong and just haven't found the right documentation. I'm also trying to get an appointment set up with the sales team to discuss.

It's true there does seem to be a wide gap in the UI aspect of Oracle VM for SPARC vs. Oracle VM x86. Personally I like the UI for the x86 platform better than the OEM 11g with Ops Center plugin for LDoms. However, I believe both UIs lack some robustness. In our case, we currently do not use a UI (for many reasons, mainly bugs and lack of certain CLI functionality). In the SPARC arena, it is extremely simple to script everything for the Oracle VM SPARC product (including HA scenarios). Once we build out the infrastructure, almost everything we do (provisioning, reporting, decommissioning) is done via simple perl scripting which is the power of not having a UI. However, a better UI for Oracle VM for SPARC is desirable for managing multiple environments/groupings, etc..

SOX Compliance in HFM- Best Practice

Hi guys,
Is there any "best practice" for SOX compliance in HFM? Can you do it by using Shared Services? Should I work with the .SEC file?
Have you ever been required to do so? I was asked to do so, but since it's not my field, I'm kind of lost...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Jay

SOX covers a number of topics. Ask for the request list from the SOX auditors, and then go through each item and determine where in the system is the best source.
The .sec file is likely not going to work. There is a provisioning report that is more helpful for user access.

Users detail extraction from Shared services.

Hi Gurus,
I want to extract all the users with their User id's, FirstName and LastName.
I tried provisioning report but no luck with First and Last Names.
Please suggest.
Thanks.

Thanks for the response John!!
I have exported the foundation shared services.
It shows the users from only Native group directory in resource folder.
I want all the users from all the directories.
Please help.
