Read Access to Planning applications.

Hi Gurus
Is it possible to give Read access to the Planning applications through HSS? similar to 'Read' access of the essbase apps? I m in 11.1.2.1 and the Provisioning Options we have are Administrator, Analytic Services Write Access, Cube Creator, Interactive user, Manage Models, Mass Allocation, Planner, Provisioning Manager, View user. Only view user sounds right for the read access I need. If I select read access, it looks like I need to give access to all the forms, dimensions (members) etc read access in each plannign app.. Is there a default Role for All Read Access to the Planning apps?
thankyou
rrK

Planning security is different than Essbase security. You'll have to provide him read access on your secured dimensions for him to view the dimensions. same is applicable for forms.

How to find out total of number of users accessing Hyperion Planning applications ?

Hi All,
Could someone help me with the details of how to find out total number of users who are accessing Hyperion Planning application in Env.?
This is with regard to licenses so wanted accurate and unique information,
Thanks
Amith

Hello Amith,
I think you should have a look at the blog of Cameron Lackpour http://camerons-blog-for-essbase-hackers.blogspot.be/
In the "Shared Services Stupid Trick" blogs, he shows how to find the real access to an application. The side benefit is that it is amusing to read.
In how far this is OK for the licenses is written on another page. You likely need to use the same method as Oracle does. Ask the Salesperson how to do this. (I am curious what his/her reply is).

Adding Essbase Server access to Planning Application group

Hi All,
How we can add Essbase server access to Planning Application group in Shared services ? Pls. advice

You can't provision access against any application group.
However, you can create and use native user groups or use external user groups and provision those groups to have acccess to Essbase and Planning.
See this post for an example of how I like to set up groups in Shared Services for Planning:
http://camerons-blog-for-essbase-hackers.blogspot.com/2009/08/planning-security-wrong-way-and-right.html
The top level group I refer to in the post is where I typically grant Essbase Server Access.

Write access to Planning application EPM 11

I have a Planning application and there are users/groups that have write access through Planning and I want to give these users/groups write access through Web Analysis.
I see in Shared Services there is provisioning for "Analytic Server Write Access", which gives them the ability to write outside of Planning (GREAT)....but I don't want the users to write to all the members they have write access to in Planning, only a select few. Any ideas?
Thx John

If you want to change the access in web analysis then you will probably have to look into updating the essbase filters.
If you do this you would have to keep rebuilding the filters after each planning refresh, can be done with maxl.

Unable to Access New Planning Application via Workspace

Hi all
i have installed a new Planning server into the existing platform (there is no hardware load balancing so is seen as a single instance of planning) however i am using the existing workspace and HSS.
I have successfully installed and configured the new Essbase and Planning Products and registered against shared services. The issue i have is that i cannot get the new Planning application to be viewable via workspace. I get Application is invalid.!!.
The original (Existing) Planning on server 1 is set to 'Active Instance' in the product registration and these apps can be viewed by workspace etc.
I have created Planning on Server 2 and have created a new instance, but not set the 'Active instance' in the product registration!!!, i have also registered this as the web host tier on the Server 2 not the Server1.
If i use the direct planning URL's for either Planning Server 1 or Planning Server 2 i see the planning applications that are on each server!!
Can anyone tell me what configuration i have missed out! If it helps the Planning Server 1 has its own Shared Services Project and Planning Server 2 has its own Shared Services project.
I have restarted services on Server2 BUT not Server 1 as i am not allowed an outage until the end of the month!!.

Hi,
Did you create a new Planning app in your new environment? Can you access this new app as a test?
You will need to asociated your app with an active instance and datasource.
In the workspace, when you go to Navigate - Applications - Planning, do you see your Planning app or is it not there at all?
Did you check the logs for any errors? Are you sure the user you are logging on to the Workspace as has been provisioned for that planning app?
When you configured BI+ did you make sure you ticked Planning?

Planning Application Access Type Question

Hello there!
I am creating users for essbase and I need to register these users in order for them to view the planning applications. However, on the create new user, the check box for planning (this should enable users to access planning apps) is disabled. How can I register these Essbase users to access the planning applications?
Your replies are very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
Why have you not converted essbase to shared services mode ? Then you manage both the Planning and Essbase users from Shared Services, it makes sense too.

Hi,
Try below steps:
1. Open Planning application in workspace
2. Click "Administration" menu and click "Manage Properties".
3. Click "System Properties" tab and find "CREATOR_URL" property.
4. Copy and paste the vlaue URL of this property in a web browser and see if you still don't see the applications in a drop down
Let me know if it helps.

How to give planners read only access to Planning cube for ad-hoc analysis?

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to issue smartview reports to the planners. Most of the reports are coming off Essbase (reporting) application. However, we have to generate one report from planning server because of the text fields. Currently, on planning server, planners have access only to the forms. They dont have access to the planning cube. But to make them able to refresh this report, we need to give them access to the planning cube.
But we dont want them to do ad-hoc data write on planning cube. So my question goes like this - Is there a way for planners to have write access on the web forms but only read access to the cube through samrtview ??

The access permissions will match between planning and smart view if a planning connection is used.

Only Essbase read access for a Planning App

A user needs access only to read data values from essbase for a planning application. Similar to "View User" in Planning roles except doesn't need access to Planning. How can this be achieved?
Thanks

I would have thought as it is a planning application then you would need to provision a planning role for the user, the application will be seen as a planning application in shared services and not be under essbase.

Trying to access Planning application from workspace

Hi ,
I have installed UI services and i am able to login to workspace using the below URL : http://localhost:19000/workspace/.
But when i go to Navigate ---> Applications there no planning applications showing up .
I have created and registered an planning application and it was created successfull.
Please let me know how shall i proceed .
Thanks & regards,
Vijaya

This may not apply to your situation, but if you happen to be running pretty much the whole Hyperion product stack on a single, not-so-powerful computer (e.g., I run SS, Essbase, EAS server and console, BI+, Workspace, Planning, MS-IIS, and the usual assortment of desktop applications on my laptop as a sandbox environment), you may have to wait several MINUTES for the list of Planning applications to show up the first time on the menu in Workspace. The applications usually appear on the menu much faster on subsequent accesses.
As I say, this may not apply to your situation, but I thought I'd mention it as a possibility.

Shared Services, create read access to a cube into an application us a grou

Hi,
I have an application with 3 cubes. I have created a group in Shared Services, and i want to give read access only to one cube.
If i give provision to this group , i only can give read to all the application, so all the cubes are going to have read access.
How must i do to give only read access to one cube and not to all,
Thnx
Guillermo

Hi,
This post will help answer your question :- Assigning database access using Shared Services
If you are using Shared Services access is applied at application level and you can't select individual access to each database.

Read only access to Console Application ...

We have deployed development best practice examples in one WLS instance. So, all
developer can run our sample examples. All developer doesn't have admin privileges.
Some times, developer would like to get "READ ONLY " access to console application.
They can see JDBC / JMS / connection pool information.
Is it possible to allow READ ONLY Access to CONSOLE application ?
TIA
Wlstech

I don't think this is possible in the current release.

Recently we had some issue with the essbase server and we have uninstalled and installed esbase server and administration server and reconfigured them.
Now the problem is I am unable to login the my Planning application which we have created and which we were able to access it before.. I am able to see my Planning application in the Planning web, selected the same-> userid->password Got an error message saying "Unable to obtain connection to Hyperion Server. Please contact Admininstrator. I have edited the data source and given the correct credentials of essbase and my planing app and was succeeded.
Please suggest how to resove this issue.
Thanks in Advance

Hi John..Thanks for your quick reply.
I have tested this again after your reply. I restarted Planning after updating the data source. There doesn't exist any application in Essbase. I mean I am trying to create databases in essbase. I checked the provisioning of the user (admin) to the essbase server whcih is fine. I opened Planning from Start menu. After trying to open the applicaation from Planning web getting the below messages from the Plaanning window:

Error: Accessing the Reader Extensions Server web application for the first time

Hi,
I've followed the the installation guide line by line. Everything OK.
But when i access the Reader Extensions Server web application i see the following error:
An error has occured
Error 473: The credential permission settings could not be determined: 'com.adobe.document.pdf.CredentialLoginFailure: IDL:com/adobe/document/pdf/CredentialLoginFailure:1.0'.
Have you ever faced this kind of message before?
To tell you the truth i'm not very sure if my Rights Credential file is valid. But is this the cause of this message?
I use Form Server 6 and Reader Extensions 6 with a Websphere Application Server 6.0
Thanks in advance

Hi Stelios,
Yes, it seems to me also, as a bad certificate issue.
If memory serves, I run into this message once, where the certificate was valid. Anyway, Websphere v6 is not a supported app server. Have you tried installing on v5.1?
You might want to read this post, too:
