Restore Business Rule(s)

Help! I accidentally deleted 2 Business Rules from production. How do I restore them? I'm (still) on Planning 3.5.1. We have backups of all our production databases. Do I ask IT to restore the application db and I'll be able to retrieve the Business Rules that way? Or do I ask them to restore the HBR database? Eek!

Your options are to restore from an export if you took one or restore the relational database.
If you have the rules on a different environment then you could recreate or migrate them.

WebForms, Security, Business Rules restore in Planning

Hello everybody,
I am working on Hyperion System 9 (shared services, essbase, BI+, planning etc) with Oracle 10g relational repositories.
I know Planning has 2 command line tools (FormDefUtil.cmd, ExportSecurity.cmd) that allow us to export Planning web data forms and security in txt file.
My question is: If I don't have the exported files for web forms and security (because my client didn't know about the existence of the 2 tools above and so there is no backup of web form and security) is there another way to restore them?
Could I use the database backups to restore web forms and security? We do make a backup every night of all Hyperion schemas .
Same question for Business Rules. My client never made a backup of them (never exported them as .xml), can they be restored from the database's backup?
If web forms, security, BR can be restored from database, what are the steps to be followed in order to perform such an operation?
Thank you for you help!

Hi,
If there has been a backup of the relational database then you will be able to restore the database from a previous day over the current database.
You need to stop planning first, restore database, start planning, log in to make sure everything is alright.
That is the usual way to restore the planning elements.
The EAS database will follow the same sort of concept.

Hyperion Business Rules Restore

Hi,
I've Oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 installed on AIX 6.1 server. The Oracle EPM server crash. I've only a backup of Database schemas. Can I restore HBR? Only a database backup is enough to restore it? Into the EAS schema i can see the Business Rules descriptions. Where are store the scripts?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
David.

Yes, all Business Rules with scipts are store into the table HBRRULES from the EAS schema.

Cant see Business Rules after restore

Hi - using Business Rules 3.5.1 - we are trying to refresh our development Business Rules with our Production Business Rules. DBAdmins did the restore and if I go looking in the sql tables, I do see the rules. But when I go into the Business RUles Designer, I do not see any rules.
the development name of the business rules database is the same as the production.
what am I missing here?
Thanks.

there is a table in the business rule db called "alloproc" which contained the production server name. Ran a sql query to update it to the development and the business rules appeared in Designer.

Problem with two of my business rule triggers

Good morning every one,
I have a small problem with two of my business rule triggers.
I have these tables:
pms_activity
csh_cash
csh_integrate_leh
csh_integrate_led
and my process goes like this:
upon approval of a row in my pms_activity table I have a trigger that insert a row in my csh_cash - and in the csh_cash table I have a trigger that will insert in the csh_ingerate_leh and csh_integrate_led.
my problem is pms_activity does generate a row in csh_cash but the trigger in the cash does not fire to generate a row in the csh_integrate_leh and led tables.
I have generated in the following order after I created my business rule:
I have generated the table from the designer (server module tab)
I have generated the CAPI from the head start utility
I have generated the API from the designer
I have generated the CAPI from the designer
I have run the recompil.sql
I have checked that my business rule trigger is enabled and should run on insert and no where restriction
=== this is my business rule logic ======
l_rule_ok boolean := true;
begin
trace('br_csh001_cev (f)');
csh_gl_pkg.csh_gen_integ_jvs(p_id
,p_ref_num
,p_own_id
,p_trt_id
,p_value_date
,p_description
,p_amount
,p_cur_id
,p_gla_dr
,p_gla_cr
,p_gla_pl
,p_gla_rev
,p_gla_eqt);
return l_rule_ok;
exception
when others
then
qms$errors.unhandled_exception(PACKAGE_NAME||'.br_csh001_cev (f)');
end br_csh001_cev;
==== end =======================
Any help will be appreciated as I have struggled with this for two days.
Thanks

hmmm...
Try resetting it again and restoring with the same backup file...
Does the phone work properly once you've reset it before you try restoring? A lot of people here have experienced problems restoring from backups... could be worth forgetting about it and starting from scratch.
You could try contacting your nearest Nokia Service Centre (www.nokia.com/repair) and see if they can do anything - it may need the firmware reinstalling or upgrading... possibly... give them a call though and see.

Planning -v11.1.1.1 - Cannot Communicate with Business Rules

Hi,
We are unable to log into Business Rules no matter how many times we recreate users and properly provision them. I found this in the 11.1.1.1 Installation and Configuration Guide but have no idea of where or how to make this change.
Planning
• After you manually deploy Planning, Business Rules does not communicate with Planning. To work around this issue, add the following Java Options:
-DESS_ES_HOME=/hyperion/products/Essbase/eas/server -Dhyperion.home=/hyperion -DHYPERION_HOME=/Hyperion [8622082]
Where exactly would we do this and could it possibly help?

Issue is with SSH the SSH ware running in two sys and conflict issue.
Restored the Open DAP and suggested the client to re start the Service and server ones.
Client can successfully able to log to EAS and to BR now.
Couple of BR access issue is resolved by provision and Refresh of Manage database.

Business Rules Disappearing in Calc Manager

I've got a classic planning app on 11.1.2.1 running business rules through calc manager but just the other day I logged in an i could no longer see the business rules in calc manager when i go to expand the database. The rules still run and are visible in other places like the business rule security manager but not in calc manager. I tried restarting calc manager, reconfiguring weblogic, creating new rules (which actually works but the old one still are invisible). I migrated over the environment from another environment, without luck. Any idea's what could be wrong?
Thanks!
Mark

Hi, have you migrated rules though Appication Group->Foundation->Calculation Manager path of LCM? Or just rules with your application. It looks like the second but it's not enough you should use first one too.
It's not explain what have happened with you rules but may help you to restore them

Error while creating a Business rule dictionary in Jdevloper 11g

Hi,
I am getting the following error when i define the Inputs and outputs during creating on a new business rule dictionary.
Some XML schemas are not in the "xsd" directory! gardes.xsd
Please manually move or copy the Schemas
I am following the "Creating a Rule-enabled Non-SOA Java EE Application" guide in Oracle® Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle Business Rules, 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
The two schema files generated were having different content after creation of XML schema file so I copied the file to make them same. Its still giving me the same error.
Please Help.
Thanks,

Error while selecting planning app in Business Rules

Hi ,
I am not being able to select the planning outline while developing business rules (but I can select the Essbase Outline). Whenever I expand the Planning node, an error pops up the details of which says "Error connecting to Essbase server machinename/testapp." There is a details button which says: "Could not log into Planning "Detail:Could not log in to Planning Server".
Can anyone help me out. I am not being able to view the rules in the planning UI .
I have tried for recycle the EAS even though i am getting same error.
could you please let me know the solution for this
Thanks
mahesh

Hi,
Always follow this process, stop the planning service and eas service.
Start RMI service
Start EAS
Start Planning
Log into the web planning application
Then go into EAS and create a new rule, select an outline to the application you have just logged into via web.
Also if you are using the default admin user to log into EAS try another user that has been provisioned with business rules roles
If you still have problems then go to My Oracle Support (formely metalink3) then have a look at doc id - 763345.1
Ok?
Cheers

Get cell value in Planning Data form and using it in a business rule

Hi Everybody,
if i set the data type of an Account Member as text, is there a way to get the value inserted by the user in a dataform, turning it as dimensional member and using it in a business rule?
So, if the user insert the value "USA" in a cell, can i use any functions to tell essbase that "USA" is a dimensional member and then using it in a business rule, for example in a cross-dimension like Period1->FY12->USA?
I tried to use the function @Member and it doesn't work, but i'm wondering if there is a way that can let me get the value inserted and use it just like a dimensional member. What are the ways that can let user input value that can be used in a business rule? I think one is by using SmartList, is there any other ways? Maybe using variables?? As an alternative i tried to use Prompt Variable but there are too many members on which the rule must run.
Please help me, i wanna know if i can or not let the user input the member on which the rule must run...
Thank all guys
Bye
Maurizio

Thanks EW for your answer,
YesI could use SmartList even if i think it's very tough to handle. My experience on using SmartList in caclc script is not so good. I try to enter in details of my requirement:
I have 500 account members.
For each one, I have to calculate the monthly budget by sharing the amount among the months. The user wants to calculate it on the basis of the actual flow(over the months) of an unspecified account of the prior year. The unspecified account must be inserted in a data form.
So, i could use a Smart List but it colud be of 500 elements and then i should make a rule with as many IF as how many are the accounts. Or im wrong? The only way to use smart list dynamically in a business rule is by referring its values in a IF condition. Or i'm wrong.
I tried to use execution variable ma it seems don't work. In this case the user must pay attention to write the account correctly, otherwise as you say the rule doesn't work.
The value in PD0A020 is "PD0A000" (that is a dimensional member). The value in PD0A000 is "hello". In PD0A040 the rule returns "PD0A000" and not "hello" as i would. The function @Member appears to be not able to catch the dimensional member by the value in PD0A000.
{Example}="test"->"Input"->"Scenario_test"->"FY12"->"PD0A020";
Fix("test1","Input","Scenario_test","FY12")
"PD0A040"=@Member({Example});
endfix
So, my doubt is: is it possible for Essbase/Planning to use the value inserted in a data form and to turn it in a dimensional member? What are the practicable ways to let the user input/choose the member on which makes the rule run?
Thank you Ew, thank you guys

OK I bit the bullet and contacted support on this one.
There is a known issue with MDS 2012 and business rules with a combination of "must be unique" attributes. If you do not list the attributes in the same order that they were created you will get the generic error I cited. At first they told me it must be
in the same order the attributes are in and that worked on one entity but not the other. The difference was that in the second entity I previously rearranged the attributes in question. Once I changed the order in the business rule to reflect the *original*
order it worked like a champ.
Hopefully this helps save someone some time and money.

Business rule takes time to open

Hi,
Business rule takes much time when trying to open it.
I'm new to essbase. Can any one tell in which log i can get the information like why it takes much time like that.
Thanks
Kumar

we are facing this issue for particular user. In the same system, we tried with two different users. for 1st user that BR is opened in a minute, but the same BR took around 20mins to open for 2nd user
OS - Window XP
EAS version - 9.3.1
Example
A is 1st user --> XX business rule took 1min to open
B is 2nd user --> XX business rule took 20mins to open
Here both the users are having same access on the BR and the applications
Thanks
Kumar

User Variable Options: How can I use them in a Business Rule?

How can I use a "User Variable" set in File / Preferences in a Business Rule? It doesn't seem to appear as an Essbase Substitution Variable or as a Global Variable of Business Rules. The only way I know how to use it is to place the dimension on the POV or Page dimension of a data form, then use a Global Variable in a run time prompt to pick the member and run a BR against it, or some function of it.
What do I do if I want to have that dimension in Columns or Rows? How can I set a BR to directly reference the member chosen under User Variable Options?
J

Thanks Alp, but I can't seem to reproduce what you are writing below. I want to refer my Business Rule to address the value set in File / Preferences / User Variable Options; no matter what members I show elsewhere in the data form.
My other workaround is through a run time prompt and hope the user selects the appropriate user variable at the very bottom of the selection list in order to calculate the appropriate list of members.
