Report script to have attributes

Hi,
I am developing a report script to extract the base dimension members as well as some of the attributes in the columns, followed by the last data column. I have the product dimension with 2 attributes (Brand and Origin).
However, when I put all the dimensions, including the 2 attribute dimensions in <Row section, I always get the product on column, and I also have the "attribute calculation" in the first column in the output file. Below is my report script:
{ TABDELIMIT ROWREPEAT NOINDENTGEN OUTMBRNAMES
SUPEMPTYROWS SUPMISSINGROWS SUPFEED SUPCOMMAS}
{ decimal 8 } { IndentGen -5 }
<ROW("Customer","Product", "Scenarios","Company","Years","Period","Measures", "Brand", "Origin")
<LINK (<CHILDREN("Customer"))
<LINK (<CHILDREN("Product"))
"Actual"
"ABC"
"2010"
"Jan"
"Sales Quantity"
"XYZ"
"US" "Europe"
The output file is as below:
P1 P2
Attribute Calculations     Customer1     Actuals     ABC     2010     Jan     Sales Quantity XYZ US 100 200
I would like to have the output file as below:
P1     Customer1     Actuals     ABC     2010     Jan     Sales Quantity XYZ US 100
P1     Customer1     Actuals     ABC     2010     Jan     Sales Quantity XYZ US 200
Here XYZ and US are attributes of products P1 and P2.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Glenn,
Thanks for the reply. There is no problem from the os side. It can hadle big files. The script fails with network error cannot send data. .abnormal exit from report writer etc. The nohup.out file says insufficient disk space. .however there is enough disk space. Just wondering if something is leading the 32 bit essbase into thinkin that there isnt enough disk space. The size of the file generated always stops at the value equivalent to the largest positive signed int and then the script fails.
Any input is much appreciated.
Thanks

Creating a range with Substitution Variables for Report Script

Is it possible to create a range with substituion varables for use in a report script. For example instead of listing "Jan" "Feb" "Mar" "Apr" in the report script can I use a sub varaible like Jan:Apr that will list them all out?

while I have not had luck with ranges in report scripts, others have. You could have a substitution variable the is "Jun" "Jul " "Aug" or whatever you want the members to be. and it will replace jusr fine

Optimize report script having many Link statements

Hi,
I have a report script in Essbase which uses around 10 <Link statements to extract level 1 entity members from decendants of specific entity members and around 8 <Link statements to extract level 0 account members from decendants of specific account members. I observed that this report script takes almost 10 to 12 hours to execute. After some investigation I found out that ideally a report script should have maximum 5 <Link statements defined; in case if there are more than 5 <Link statements the report script would run very slow.
Following is excerpt from my report script:
<PAGE ("Scenario", "Year")
<ROW("Entity", "Account", "Custom1", "Custom2")
<COLUMN("Period")
For Entity:
<LINK((<LEV("Entity","Lev1,Entity")) AND (<IDESC("Ent001")))
<LINK((<LEV("Entity","Lev1,Entity")) AND (<IDESC("Ent002")))
<LINK((<LEV("Entity","Lev1,Entity")) AND (<IDESC("Ent003")))
For Account:
Link ((<LEV("Account", "Lev0,Account")) AND (<IDESC("Acc001")))
Link ((<LEV("Account", "Lev0,Account")) AND (<IDESC("Acc002")))
Link ((<LEV("Account", "Lev0,Account")) AND (<IDESC("Acc003")))
Could you please help me to fine tune/optimize this report script and suggest an alternate way to write this script without <Link statements so that I could run this report script faster?
Thanks in advance!
AK

You state 10 but show six. Which is it?
As for performance, if you make it just one Entity dimension LINK statement, is it fast?
Following on that, have you tried breaking the report into multiple report scripts? If they are individually faster, you could just concatenate the output files through an OS batch script. The thought of 10 individual report scripts (although I suppose we are potentially talking about more than that but I can't tell based on the information you've provided) could be complicated, but it might be worthwhile from a prototyping perspective.
Have you tried joining them together with a "!" statement. <--What that means is you write a report script and terminate it with a !. Then write another, similar report script and stick a ! on it. And again, and again, etc. Essbase reads to the ! and then goes to the next report script.

??? Sign flip on Attribute using report script ???

We are using an Essbase report script to extract data that we then process with HAL. Since the system we are loading into uses natural balances, we need to flip the sign on a revenue accounts (have 'Revenue' attribute in Essbase).Is there a way to do the sign flip on data based on the value of an attribute? I could do it once the data is back in HAL, but it would be easier if we could do it on the data extract.Thanks,TomB

I'm using example 4.
This is what I have:
$UpdateUserAttributesArray = 'sn','givenName','initials','displayName','info','mail','departmentNumber','department','telephoneNumber','ipPhone','title','physicalDeliveryOfficeName','employeeType'
Function StudentNameChange {
$Attributes=BuildUserTable $UpdateUserAttributesArray
Set-ADuser $User.sAMAccountName -Replace @{mail="$User.mail";targetAddress="$User.mail";proxyAddressess="SMTP:$User.mail";sn="$User.sn";cn="$User.sn + $User.givename"}
$UpdateUserAttributesArray sets the value for the import file.
StudentNameChange should set the updated value has needed.
The script runs but no settings are changed.
Set-AdUser $User.sAMAccountName -mail $User.mail -surname $User.sn
Like that.,
Replace is only for optional attribute.
Function does not specifi $user so that may also be missing.
I think you need to spend some time learning the basics of PowerShell. It looks like you are just gluing things together thazt you have found with no understranding of how any of the bits work.
Try just setting one user at a command prompt until you see how the CmdLet and PowerShell work. Post single simple questions as you try each parameter.
# build a test user object
$user New-Object PsObject@{
SamAccoutnName='somename'
Mail='[email protected]'
SN='lastname'
GivenName='John'
proxyAddresses='...<list of addresses>'
#start like this and add items until you understand what is working.
Get-AdUser $user.SamAccountName |
Set-AdUser -Surname $user.sn -GivenName $user .GivenName -Replace @{Mail='$($user.Mail'}
#use Rename-Object to change CN.
You need to learn the simple bits before you try to do grand things.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Report script with attribute members

<BR>In a report script, is there a way to output the attribute members associated with a base mbr. For example, the base member I'm interested in is item codes which is in a sparse dimension with 500k members. Each code has been tagged with 5 attribute members of buyer, warehouse, vendor, product line, and date of last receipt. Desired output is:<BR><BR>Item Code, Buyer, warehouse, vendor, product, and date of last receipt. <BR><BR>Right now I don't care about data at any intersections, rather I just want to output the various attributes associated with each item code. I tried doing dimbottom on items, buyers, warehouse, vendor, etc, but as expected the report would not run. <BR><BR>Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

<p>Maybe you can use the Outline Extractor, you can download itsomewhere on this website...</p>

Report script taking very long time to export in ASO

Hi All,
My report script is taking very long time to execute and finally a message appears as timed out.
I'm working on ASO Cubes and there are 14 dimensions for which i need to export all data for all the dimensions for only one version.
The data is very huge and the member count in each dimension is also huge, so which is making me difficult to export the data.
Any suggestions??
Thanks

Here is a link that addresses several ways to optimize your report script. I utilize report scripts for Level 0 exports in an ASO environment as well, however the majority of our dimemsions are attribute dimensions.
These are the most effective solutions we have implemented to improve our exports via report scripts:
1. Make sure your report script is written in the order of how the Report Extractor retrieves data.
2. Supressing Zero and Missing Data
3. We use the LINK command within reports for some dimensions that are really big and pull at Level 0
4. Using Symmetric reports.
5. Breakout the exports in multiple reports.
However, you may also consider some additional solutions outlined in this link:
1. The MDX optimizing commands
2. Back end system settings
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/esb_dbag/drpoptim.htm
I hope this helps. Maybe posting your report script would also help users to provide feedback.
Thanks

I have 2 questions for help in regards to the above script:
1) For the Login and Service Account portion I can't get my output to show up properly. Here is the snip from the script:
#Login & Service Account Information#SQL Host Information
$smo = new-object ('Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server') $computername
$fragments += "<h3>Login & Service Account Information</h3>"
$fragments += $smo | select ServiceAccount, Logins | ConvertTo-HTML -Fragment
Here is how the output shows for this portion:
ServiceAccount
Logins
domain\svcAcct
             Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.LoginCollection
I would like top have the login information show in the above table of the all the different logins. When I run the script without HTML for that portion and just output to console it shows the login info as I would expect.
2) The 2nd question is, how do I add a variable to the bottom of the script to email the report to said email address. This is probably simple but can't get my head wrapped around this part.
Thanks all in advance!

Thanks AnnaWY, that resolved the portion on how to email the report. I was also able to utilize the following code which does the same thing as well:
#Send an email with the contents of the report
$MailBody= Get-Content $path
$MailSubject= "SQL Server Report"
$SmtpClient = New-Object system.net.mail.smtpClient
$SmtpClient.host = "smtp.server.com"
$MailMessage = New-Object system.net.mail.mailmessage
$MailMessage.from = "[email protected]"
$MailMessage.To.add("[email protected]")
$MailMessage.Subject = $MailSubject
$MailMessage.IsBodyHtml = 1
$MailMessage.Body = $MailBody
$SmtpClient.Send($MailMessage)
I still have not been able to resolve the portion regarding the login/service account information not showing up in the table correctly. For the time being I have removed it from the environment report and instead included it as a script of its own
in our Security Auditing process.

Regarding Report Script

Hi Gurus,
I have created a report script where one of the dimensions contains two attribute dimensions(Attr1 and Attr2). I need to filter the dimension members based on one attribute (Attr1) and want to display values of Attr2 associated with those filtered dimension members. Is that possible?
Thanks.

Essbase reports do not put row headers on (Headers for the dimension members from the <rows command).
The best I have been able to do in the past was to have a file with the header info I wanted and after the report was created concatinate the header file with the report file using the Dos copy command.

Report script taking too long to export data

Hello guys,
I have a report script to export data out of a BSO cube. The cube is 200GB in size. But the exported text file is only 10MB. It takes around 40 mins to export this file.
I have exported data of this size in less than a minute from other DBs. But this one is taking way too long for me.
I also have a calc script for the same export but that too is taking 20 mins which is not reasonable for a 10MB export.
Any idea why a report script could take this long? Is it due to huge size of database? Or is there a way to optimize the report script?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the input guys.
My DATAEXPORT is taking half the time than my report script export. So yeah it is much faster but still not reasonable(20 mins for one month data) compared to other DBs that are exported very quick.
In my calc I am just FIXING on level 0 members for most of the dimensions against the specific period, year and scenario. I have checked the conditions for an optimal report script, I think mine is just fine.
The outline has like 15 dimensions in it and only two of them are dense. Do you think the reason might be the huge size of DB along with too many sparse Dims?
I appreciate your help on this.
Thanks

Report Script- Performance Issue

Hi,
I ran this report script and it is taking around 2 hours to complete. Is there any possiblity to better tune this script. Please advice me where else can we better tune this.
Thanks,
UB.

ID 581459.1:
Goal
How to optimize Hyperion Essbase Report Scripts?
Solution
To optimize your Report follow the suggested guidelines below:
1. Decrease the amount of Dynamic Calcs in your outline. If you have to, make it dynamic calc and store.
2. Use the <Sparse command at the beginning of the report script.
3. Use the <Column command for the dense dimensions instead of using the Page command. The order of the dense dimensions in the Column command should
be the same as the order of the dense dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Column (D1, D2)).
4. Use the <Row command for the sparse dimensions. The order of the sparse dimensions in the Row command should be in the opposite order of the sparse
dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1)). This is commonly called sparse bottom up method.
5. If the user does not want to use the <Column command for the dense dimensions, then the dense dimensions should be placed at the end of the <Row command.
(Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1, D1, D2)).
6. Do not use the Page command, use the Column command instead.

Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error

When attempting to write to a new file (Eg: C:\TEST.txt), Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error occurs.
This error occurs only in Essbase 9.3.1.3 release, however it works fine in release 9.3.1.0.
After running the report the script, it pops up the follwing message:
"java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\temp\eas17109.tmp (The system cannot find the file specified): C:\TEST.txt"
When checked the TEST.txt, it was empty.

Sorry folks, I just found out the reason. Its because there was no data in the combination what I was extracting.
but is this the right error message for that? It should have atleast create a blank file right?

Report Script issue

Hi,
Is it possible to create a Report Script that would export Period data (jan, feb, ... dec) condition being that the start period is a subvar. Eg. from &FcstMonth to Dec, where &FcstMonth is Aug.

Leo

Hi Leo,
I have a report script that is running with &FMonths set to "Aug" "Sep" "Oct" "Nov" "Dec"
same should work on your side,
