Realize essbase data cache through business rule

Hi!
Can any body guide me how to realize essbase data cache through business rule.
Thanks

Right,
Actually, Business rules are running essbase cubes in every case.
Remember planning and BRs are adding extra layers like prompts, forms, security, processes...
Think Business rules are extended version of calc scripts with some more functionality. They are ultimately running on essbase cubes...

Is there any way that Fy15 can be converted to 2015 or just 15 through business rules ?

Is there any way that Fy15 can be converted to 2015 or just 15 through business rules ?

Hi Celvin,
Here is the Scenario....
1.I am calculating a year from the date. (Curyear=2015)
2.Based on this year my calculations runs using if statement like IF(CurYear==2015) where CurYear is an account member.
3.I am using substitution variables for restricting years for calculations(PresentYear).
4.I want to now compare this substitution variable with my CurYear. Like If(CurYear==&Presentyear). So either of years needs to be converted into some string or number to compare.

Essbase Data Cache Full Error

Hi, All,
I am encountering an Essbase data cache full error while running some calc scripts. I have already try to set the data cache size to 800MB to 1.6GB, and index cache to around 100MB. It is quite a large BSO Essbase, with one dimension over 1000 members, another about 2500 members, and the last one about 3000 members.
I have three similar scripts and each is for different entities to aggregate on some of those dimensions.
For example, I started with unload the app/db, and run the calc script 1 for Entity1, it is successfully; However, I continue to run on calc script 2 for Entity 2, it showed the "data cache full error". However, after I unload the app/db, and then run calc script 2 again, I can have the calc scripts completed with no errors.
I am running on Essbase 11.1.1.3 on AIX platform 32-bit Essbase.
Anyone had encountered that before. Is it a problem with Essbase RAM handling, in this case?
Thanks in advance

Thank you John,
We have found that it is the entity dimension that should be responsible to this problem.
I remember we have encountered this kind of problem before when we aggregate an application with the entity dimension hierarchy mixed with shared and stored instances of the same level 0 members. To put it simple, there are three members under "Entity" dimension member, which represents different view of entity hierarchies of same level 0 members. the first one has stored level 0 entity members while the other two have shared ones. And at that time, our client added another hierarchy with shared level 0 members, but they did not put this tree under "Entity" dimension member directly, but rather put it under the first child of "Entity", which is the one with stored level 0 members.
It is a little bit confusing to describe the situation only by text. Anyway, at that time, the first hierarchy had both stored and shared instances of the same group of level 0 members. And the data cache is always full when aggregating. and after we moved the forth hierarchy to another tree so under that hierarchy the level 0 members are all shared instances, the aggregation worked flawlessly.
I wondered why this happened and consider this is related to detailed calculation logic of Essbase. May you shed some light on this topic? Thank you with all my heart!
Warm Regards,
John

Error connecting to Essbase Server when running business rules

We recently migrated from v9.3 to v11.1.1.3. I have two users with Administrative access who need to run business rules on a native Essbase application, but cannot. They get the message 'Error connecting to Essbase Server'. They get this message when trying to set this execution database. They can't even expand the server to see the list of applications. I have tried deprovisioning them in Shared Services, refreshing security, then adding it all back in and refreshing again, but it doesn't work. My own id has identical access to that which I'm granting them, and I have no problems. I even created a native user with the same access and it works as well. No matter what I do, I cannot get these two users to be able to run their business rules in EAS.
We also have a Planning application, and the Planning Administrative user has the same issue. However, this user is able to get around it by running rules using the Planning connection rather than the Essbase connection. She has the same issue of not seeing anything under the Essbase Servers when trying to set the execution database though.
In version 9, we were not using Shared Services for Essbase security. Unfortunately our consultant chose to set it up using Shared Services security when migrating, and according to the documentation, one cannot go back to using Native Essbase security.
I also tried running the Externalize Users wizard and the three users with issues failed to externalize. My own id did, and the native user I created succeeded.
Has anyone experienced an issue like this or have any ideas on how to resolve?
Thanks,
Sabrina

Follow up - Oracle has finally resolved this. It's so simple, yet no one thought to check until now. The three users with problems all have mixed case user id's in ldap. They have always logged into EAS with all lower case ids. In version 9, on native security, this was never a problem. But in version 11 using Shared Services (not sure which factor changed it), it doesn't work. The simple solution is to log in with their exact mixed case user ids. It only took Oracle three months and the creation of a bug issue to figure this out for us.

Essbase data cache setting not registering

Hi,
We have 64-bit essbase. I changed the data and Index cache setting (storage type Buffered IO) in essbase.
After restarting the database, I see the value getting updated in the "Index cache current value" but the value in the "Data cache current value" is zero.
These are planning essbase databases. The behavior is same for the native essbase dbs.
I have also tried restarting the essbase service. The essbase version 11.1.1.3
Please help.
Regards,
Avi

Indes and data caches work differently and it is probably good to talk about that. When an Essbase database starts, it will grab all of the memory you have defined for the index cache and nothing else can get at it. Data cachs is grabbed as it is needed until it reaches the maximum. It was truly problematic in the old days when we had much less memory to work with. If you started too many applications, you took all available memory right away. Man I feel old talking about it :)

Comparison of dates using Oracle Business Rule

Hi to everyone! I have a business rule that has as input parameter a complex attribute with a date field inside named expiration. I want to compare the expiration field with the current date using a comparison function. I don't know where find the current date. The function Calendar.getInstance() return the current date? Any help we'll' be highly appreciated.

Calendar.getInstance() will give you the current date, and to find out the days between two dates; use Duration.days between(date1, date2) + 1

Essbase parent level aggregation business rule for end users

Can someone provide me the basic syntax of a business rule to allow end users within Planning to run a run time prompt business to aggregate their responsibility level within a dimension like Cost Center? So for example, I want to allow a cost center manager to pick his parent level cost center and then run the aggregation script to rollup only his cost center expenses. I've tried to include AGG and CalcDim commands with various global variables to enable them to select the cost center fix point, but the aggregation doesn't seem to produce the right results. Anyone have a workable syntax for this?

If you are just trying to agg the children up to the parent it is even simplier I'll assume you are trying to roll up the company to some intermediate level
Say you have the outline
company
---East
------NY
-----NJ
---West
-----Ca
-----Az
and you want to roll up East you could do something like
FIX (FY10, Final, Actual)
@IDESCENDANTS("East");
ENDFIX
Of course I would add more into the fix to do the least work possible
The command Idescendants really means calculate all of the descendants of the selected member. I guess if you wanted to make it more efficient you could add the level command into it
like @idescendants("East"",-1) that would avoid looking for anything to do on the level zero members

Error running business rules

Hello All, We are currently experiencing the problem with the Business Rules. After some idle time in the application, we get an error "Cannot connect to essbase server" and the business rules fail to run.

Any help in this matter is welcome. Thanks!

Hi, we have the same error (region definition error, rules in planning not running for approx. 15 min) - then suddenly working again.
This is a desaster, as planning users save not-calculated data and cause inconsistency in the system.
had this in planning 4 installation up to Aug.08 and then in system 9 (with planning patch 5) - rel. 9.3.1.1.5 using IBM Websphere -
all quick solution from hyperion did not really help: increase number of ports, java cache, change netrelay, netretryconect etc. in essbase.cfg and
Olap.server.net retry +Olap.server.net connect delay in essbase.properties files
Review business rules and users for errors, hardware, caches, fragmentation, potential system overload, search for corrupted database, invalid formulas in outline ...
it came out, that it was just 1 business rule causing this trouble: our only rule, where you enter in a user prompt a numeric value -problem is quotation marks.
we installed the cumulative Service Fix 11 for this (and other reasons) last week (takes approx. 4 hours to install with all the manual steps - just came out in May - Rel. 9.3.1.1.11)
as the error happened only from time to time in the peak of our planning session, we will monitor next months but are very optimistic to have things fixed (solution obviously in fix 9 already)
this link may help as well:

I suggest to install Service Fix 11 - if you read the manual, you probably find more fixed errors in there. (Patch is for Planning and BR Rules/AAS EAS)

Issue with creating/Launching a Business Rule

Hi All,
I'm using Hyperion version 11.1.2. When creating Business Rule in EAS console, we can't use admin user right ? Is there any specific reason for that ? I've created one other user called "BRadmin" and given admin privileges to all areas. I've logged in EAS console with the new user ID BRadmin and under "Business Rules" i'm trying to create a new Business Rule BR1. In the associated outline area when i'm trying to select "Select outline" no applications are showing under planning and the planning applications are available under Essbase node. For Business Rules, i should select Planning Application under Planning node right ? Why it is happening. I'm unable to select the Planning application from Planning node and due to this, i'm unable to see the Business Rule in Data Forms in Work Space. Pls. advice

I did Stop the following services, planning, EAS, hyperion RMI.
& Started them up RMI, EAS, Planning.After this have you logged in the planning application, before selecting business rules in EAS?
1. Have you selected Calculation module as Business Rule during outline creation? if not select Calculation module as BR.
2. Right click on the business rule node and select refresh user list.
Cheers..!!!

Business rule assignment in Process Control 10.0, does not show any Control

Hi All,
I have created Organization, and assigned Mitigation control, as shown below. I have also created data Source and Business rule. But Business rule assignment is Blank for Controls. So, could you suggest, how can i see the Controls for the Business rule
Regards
Plaban

You'll need to ensure the timeframes are aligned. What is the valid from date of your organisation and equally so important from your (sub)proces and your control. You are trying to do an assignment as per the first of january 2015. You'll not find entities that are created after Jan 1 2015.
Furthermore you can only select controls that are either earmarked to be tested automated or semi-automated.
Finally you're refering to mitigating controls. So that would imply you have integrated the AC mitigating controls with PC or vice versa. What is the creation date of the mitigating control and per which date has it been assigned to the local subprocess?
In order to provide a precise answer we'd need more details on the exact process you've follow. There are simply more than on possible root causes depending on what you've done.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jan

Tiggger-Business Rule Problem

Hi Guys
I have BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON ASSESSMENTS for each row which is doing some sort of validation for date.
IF INSERTING OR UPDATING then
v_involv_identifier := NVL(:new.identifier,:old.identifier);
IF :new.start_date is not null THEN
BEGIN
SELECT MIN(irole.start_date)
INTO v_irole_start
FROM involvement_roles irole
WHERE irole.involv_identifier = v_involv_identifier;
IF trunc(:new.start_date) > trunc(v_irole_start)
THEN
raise_application_error(-20103, 'SSL-13085');
END IF;
EXCEPTION
when no_data_found then
null;
END;
END IF;
IF :new.end_date is not null
THEN
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(irole.end_date)
INTO v_irole_end
FROM involvement_roles irole
WHERE irole.involv_identifier = v_involv_identifier;
IF v_irole_end is not null
AND trunc(v_irole_end) > trunc(:new.end_date)
THEN
raise_application_error(-20103, 'SSL-13085');
END IF;
EXCEPTION
when no_data_found then
null;
End;
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(irole.start_date)
INTO v_irole_start
FROM involvement_roles irole
WHERE irole.involv_identifier = v_involv_identifier;
IF v_irole_start is not null
AND v_irole_start > :new.end_date
THEN
raise_application_error(-20103, 'SSL-13085');
END IF;
EXCEPTION
when no_data_found then
null;
END;
END IF;
END IF;
          Now in AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON ASSESSMENTS for each row
          I am updating the values of Involvement_role(irole.start_date, irole.end_date) and
          Involments(start_date, end_date ) to temporary table and from there to respective table to avoid
          mutation.It works fine as expected in all cases.
          But I am unable to update when both InvolvementRole enddate and Invovement enddate are updated at same
          (Both are same date)or InvolvementRole startdate and Invovement startdate are updated at same time
          (Both are same date) because of business rule implemented.But from user prspect it should be able to
          update at the same time.
          After analysising I think it happening because of the max value of v_irole_end & v_irole_start which i m
          getting using the select statement which still coantain the old value.
          Say for example currenlty the InvolvementRole enddate=4/9/2009 and Invovement enddate=4/9/2009
          Now I m updating with value say InvolvementRole enddate=3/9/2009 and Invovement enddate=3/9/2009
          Now with select stm. the max value of v_irole_end=4/9/20099 (say)
          so this rule apply
          IF v_irole_end is not null
AND trunc(v_irole_end) > trunc(:new.end_date)
THEN
raise_application_error(-20103, 'SSL-13085');
END IF;
          and it will not allow to update .
but if you update separately it will not cause any problem as the value of InvolvementRole enddate is
          already modifes and contain the new value (3/9/2009)
          Now question is it's frustrating to user.Can any one suggest how to over and allow user to update
          simulteneouly without violating B-Rules.
          For information I m updating the Involvement Role table before and then InvolvementTable.

Business rule - cannot run

Gurus,
I cannot launch a business rule. When I try to launch it, it gives a message "the rule cannot be launched because it has hidden rtp variables without default value"
What could be he problem with it.
THANKS

Maybe it relates to the issue
9900514 - "The Use Members on Data Form and Hide Prompt options for business rules attached to composite data forms apply only for runtime prompt values from the globally shared pages and POVs of a composite data form. In other words, this will only use members that are shared across all component data forms. If users want a business rule to take context from a single component data form, they should attach the business rule to that component data form and include the business rules for that component data form at the composite data form level (<Business rules for componentX>)."

Planner not able to see Business rule

Hi There,
The issue here is ,we have attached some business rules to a form on "ON save" and through business rule security ,have given access to a planner user but with Planner login ,the he is not able to see that business rule attched with that form.i have checked with admin login ,it is visible.
Any idea why this is happening?

Have you added validate and launch access to the business rules for that user? If yes try restarting the services.
Also try removing and adding again the user with validate and launch access.
Try checking are you able to view BR under administration-> Business rules from the Planner's id ?

RTP not working with Business Rule

I am trying to create a buisness rule that fixes on a member in a custom dimension based on a run time prompt using Calc Manger (11.1.2.2). I created the variable at the cube level, set it to 'Member' and selected the appropriate dimension, and selected RTP. The FIX statement is very simple FIX("Current",{Contract}). The rule validates and deploys with no problem. When running the rule either on form save or through Business Rules I receive the error: "error parsing formula for [FIX STATEMENT] (line 2): invalid object type. If I change the variable to uncheck 'RTP' and place the same member used previously as the Default value the rule runs no problem. Is there any reason why the rule appears to not be able to read in my RTP selection?
Thanks,
CS

Though this is not a calc manager issue, I am sure the member that Planning is picking up is a member that is set tyo dynamic calc.
You cannot use a member that is set to dynamic calc in a fix.
