Retrieve Total of multiple members

In 11.1.2 Essbase - Excel SmartView -
Is there a way to select mutiple members and Total them ? Could an select 5 Chart of Accounts and retrive - SmartView will show SUM of those members - not details.

How about using Add-in? My users swear it is doable in Add-in. we are in 11.1.2.
I did not see any way to do it in Add-in in V7, 9.3.1 or 11.
So other option as you have specified is - could I create a dynamic member sort of SUMRange(Selected Members) in the back end ?

Display aggregate total for multiple members of a dimension.

When multiple members of a dimension are selected in a row or column in Financial Reporting tool, it tends to display the result in multiple rows or columns. Is it possible to display the aggregate value of all the members and not display the individual details. I have tried the Auto Calculation which shows the "Total" but also shows the Individual members that were selected in multiple rows or columns. Any suggestions would be great.
Ajay.

Brian, I will post all my future questions in the Reporting Forum as you suggested. Coming back to my question, I do not want to display all the Individual members that I had selected in the report. I only need the aggregate value (Custom Totals) of all the Dimension members together.
eg: If I choose the following account members in one row (Salaries, Bonus, Advertising), I do not want to display the individual line items for the three members, I only need one row called "Expenses" that has the aggregate value for the three members. Essbase by default (even if I don't select "place selections in separate columns" ) will put the members in separate rows or columns.
Thanks.

Cannot add multiple members of a failover cluster to a DFSR replication group

Server 2012 RTM. I have two physical servers, in two separate data centers 35 miles apart, with a GbE link over metro fibre between them. Both have a large (10TB+) local RAID storage arrays, but given the physical separation there is no physical shared storage.
The hosts need to be in a Windows failover cluster (WSFC), so that I can run high-availability VMs and SQL Availability Groups across these two hosts for HA and DR. VM and SQL app data storage is using a SOFS (scale out file server) network share on separate
servers.
I need to be able to use DFSR to replicate multi-TB user data file folders between the two local storage arrays on these two hosts for HA and DR. But when I try to add the second server to a DFSR replication group, I get the error:
The specified member is part of a failover cluster that is already a member of the replication group. You cannot add multiple members for the same cluster to a replication group.
I'm not clear why this has to be a restriction. I need to be able to replicate files somehow for HA & DR of the 10TB+ of file storage. I can't use a clustered file server for file storage, as I don't have any shared storage on these two servers. Likewise
I can't run a HA single DFSR target for the same reason (no shared storage) - and in any case, this doesn't solve the problem of replicating files between the two hosts for HA & DR. DFSR is the solution for replicating files storage across servers with
non-shared storage.
Why would there be a restriction against using DFSR between multiple hosts in a cluster, so long as you are not trying to replicate folders in a shared storage target accessible to both hosts (which would obviously be a problem)? So long as you are not replicating
folders in c:\ClusterStorage, there should be no conflict.
Is there a workaround or alternative solution?

Yes, I read that series. But it doesn't address the issue. The article is about making a DFSR target highly available. That won't help me here.
I need to be able to use DFSR to replicate files between two different servers, with those servers being in a WSFC for the purpose of providing other clustered services (Hyper-V, SQL availability groups, etc.). DFSR should not interfere with this, but it
is being blocked between nodes in the same WSFC for a reason that is not clear to me.
This is a valid use case and I can't see an alternative solution in the case where you only have two physical servers. Windows needs to be able to provide HA, DR, and replication of everything - VMs, SQL, and file folders. But it seems that this artificial
barrier is causing us to need to choose either clustered services or DFSR between nodes. But I can't see any rationale to block DFSR between cluster nodes - especially those without shared storage.
Perhaps this blanket block should be changed to a more selective block at the DFSR folder level, not the node level.

Adding Sum Totals from Multiple Tables in A single Document

Hello All,
I'm having trouble adding sum totals from multiple tables I've created in a Pages 09 doc. I putting together a spreadsheet for cost projections for a house remodel. I created tables for each room of the house. At the bottom of the document I'd like to have another table that takes the totals from each individual room and adds them up. Problem appears to be that each table has the same x/y axis labels so row and column numbers/letters are repeated so the final table can't quantify thing correctly.
Any easy solutions? I can't find anything that's helped in my search efforts.
Thanks,
Josefis

Jerry,
Thanks for the feedback. I thought that might be the case. And you were correct to assume I was more comfortable in Pages. I'm halfway through converting everything to numbers. In the end it will work great too. Just some different formatting/design choices to be made as numbers doesn't appear to be as versatile in the same way pages is with design. So far it looks pretty good though.
Thanks again,
Josefis

How do I total across multiple Tables? Help!

how do I total across multiple Tables? Help!
I feel like a complete noob.

Hi Marc,
There is no function explicitly for that sort of array calculation in Numbers.
My favorite way is to use a list of Table Names and the INDIRECT(ADDRESS) function combination to produce a SUM across tables. I'm making the assumption that you want to do something like adding up all the values in a particular cell of multiple tables. For example "give me the total of all the A1 cells in tables T1, T2, T3 and T4". For this I would use the formula:
=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(1,1,1,,A))
to grab the cell contents of the table names mentioned in column A of a summary table. Once you have them collected in your summary table, add them up.
Here's a screen shot...
Hope that gives you an idea for approaching this problem.

Multiple members with same alias

I have multiple members with same alias name. Are there anyway to build dimension members with same alias name?

Typically I will concatinate the member name (as either a prefix or suffix ) to the Alias to make it unique

How to retrieve "KeyValue" from multiple Shape paths then "SetValue" to Mask path Keyframes?

Hello AEScriptsComm.,..
i have one question (hopefully the tutorer will answer soon), which is the goal and reason i'm learning ExtendScripts:
I have a few dozen Adobe Illustrator, imported Shape Layers with paths "Created..from Vector Layers" in AEffects.
In order to use a .jsxbin script to change every path to the same number of verticies for animating, i must 1st convert them to Keyframes on the same Mask Path property.
1) i hoped to please be shown\sent an example showing how to,..
a) Get\Retrieve "KeyValue" from multiple, single (Shape Layers):Outlines > Contents > Group > Path > Path as shown in screenshot "4-CreateShapeFromVecLyr2Outlines.JPG",
and then,..
b) "SetValue" from those paths into Mask > Mask Path keyframes also in screenshot "1-ExtendScript_ShapePathsTOMaskPathKeyframes.JPG"?
Really appreciate any help soon as time allows,
Jeff

Hello Xavier,
esp. with my limited experience i can't determine how your concise script works.
Because it 1st errors esp. with undefines i'm thinking at best its incomplete (or algorithm) to give me the gist and i'm to fill in the blanks, which i am doing with the sort of working code example pasted below.
Its written with every definition, declaration and initialization completed, so a novice like me can read the manuals, rev. eng. pertinant script(s), then with fragmented code and understanding quickly connecting to form a complete custom script, as we've all done.
like this:
var comp = app.project.activeItem:
var layer = comp.layers.addSolid([1,1,1,], layerName, comp.width, comp.height, 1.0, comp,duration);
therefore,..
var CompLayerSolid = app.project.activeItem.layers.addSolid([1,1,1,], layerName, comp.width, comp.height, 1.0, comp,duration);
..then with such direct access in other essentials, i can substitute compatible properties, methods, parameters etc. and remaining code that affect the layer objects i need to control simultaneously. Also thereby learning more complex code quickly enough to use.
Only, i hoped to save time here by those already familiar.
But by comparison your script without declarations or many references in AE's CS6 Scripting Guide and online, i can't decipher or understand,
although you wrote this more complete segment at CCow:
"shapeLayer.content.addProperty("ADBE Vector Graphic - Fill");",
..in which is the addProperty i 1st looked for in your script after erroring with "ShapeLayer is undefined"
But i could'nt find a ref. to either .content or content. anywhere in ExtendScript, nor "targetLayer.mask", and "targetLayer" i found once in ref. to ExtendScript as an AE layer name. So perhaps their your variables?, you see i can't determine or use.
i don't know that was'nt meant, maybe a bit to tell me do my own research?, no offence, can't confirm that without reply, hope you will, but my research is why i'm here and your probably advanced script could only help with your assistance.
Thanks anyway,
Cheers.

Multiple members for single user variable???

Hi,
Can I select multiple members or a hierarchy for a single user variable?
My requirement is to use a dimension which consist of more than 100 members but the user will not enter data for 100 members
at the same time so I want to give user an option to select the members for which he wants to enter data.
I was thinking of using user variable but it is allowing me to select only one member for user variable created for that dimension,
that means if he has to enter data for 10 members he has to change that variable 10 times or I have to use 10 different user variable for that dimension.
what if any user wants 20 members, at that time I have only 10 user variables.
Please help..
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
Can I select multiple members or a hierarchy for a single user variable?Are the required members descendants of any particular member(hierarchy )?
If so, you can use IDescendants<user variable> in the form's page. And you can also use dynamic user variable option.
Regards

Rename multiple members in essbase

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how can we rename multiple members in essbase at a time and also the data should not be lost for the existing member combination.

It depends on how many members you want to rename and if any of the names switch between members. If all of the new member names are not the same as an old member name and there are not too many of them, then you could just rename them in EAS and the data will follow.
If some of the names are the same (for example, you want to reanme a -> B and C->A) then you have to do it in two steps rename A-B and save the changes then rename C->A and save the change.
If you have a lot to do, then it becomes a bit harder as it is difficult to automate it. You can sometimes use new aliases to make the new names, then go back and rename the members to match the aliases.
You can also use the API to do this. read something that has the onl and new names and do a rename function. This would take a little more work to incorporate. I think the code to get you started is still available from a presentation I gave a couple of years ago at the Kaleidoscope conference. Look on the ODTUG site (You have to be a member, but you can sign up for free)

Selecting Multiple Members for Allocation SP7

Hi nilanjan,
I revised my code as shown below but I still get the same error. I really want to avoid selecting all product categories since there would be 450 members so I don't use select statements. I just want to select the product categories that have values so there would be no need to loop all 450 members because it's causing my logic to hang when validate and save it. Any suggestion on how I can select product categories that have value only?
*FOR %PROD_CAT%=%PRODUCT_SET%

AWM Calculated Measure for Percent of Total Across Multiple Dimensions?

I noticed that AWM has a Share function that gives me a percent total of a grain from a specific hierarchy's Top of Hierarchy, but is there any way to do that with multiple dimensions? For example, if I had a Share of Dimension X = 55% Where Time = 1/1/2013 and a Share of Dimension Y = 32% Where Time = 1/1/2013, then could I have a Share of both Dimension X and Dimension Y = 16% Where Time = 1/1/2013?

I had used an alternate solution which is a bit more cumbersome using native OLAP_DML formulae/expression.
The above expression using OLAP Expression Syntax is much better (if it works).
I was not aware of this OLAP expression syntax when i needed to create a kpi for similar requirement.
We had Qty measure and Share along dimension like "Qty - Share at Year level", "Qty - Share of Total Customer".
We needed to get "Qty - Share at Total Customer, Year".
Cube= SALESCUBE
Base Meas = QTY
Step 1) Create Measure which represents "Qty - Total Customer, Year" which will work in any reporting context ...
Note: For time=day1/2/3/ within same year and customer=cust1/2/3/... or Total Customer, the expression result will be constant (result fixed for any dimension members/status along the 2 dimensions - TIME and CUST). Denominator Value changes each year since we have constrainted time dimension to the ancestor of current cell at YR level. If we choose anscestor at TOP level TOTTIME say then the value is fixed for all time dimension members/values.
olap dml expression: QUAL(SALESCUBE_QTY, CUSTOMER limit(CUSTOMER to CUSTOMER_LEVELREL 'TCUST'), TIME limit(limit(TIME to ANCESTORS USING TIME_PARENTREL TIME(TIME TIME)) KEEP TIME_LEVELREL eq 'YR'))
in awxml - this becomes:
ETMeasureColumnName="QTY_TCUST_YR"
Name="QTY_TCUST_YR"
MeasureExpression="OLAP_DML_EXPRESSION('QUAL(SALESCUBE_QTY, CUSTOMER limit(CUSTOMER to CUSTOMER_LEVELREL ''TCUST''), TIME limit(limit(TIME to ANCESTORS USING TIME_PARENTREL TIME(TIME TIME)) KEEP TIME_LEVELREL eq ''YR''))', NUMBER)">
<Classification
Value="AwmDescriptionType=OLAP_DML_CALC"/>
<Description
Type="LongDescription"
Language="AMERICAN"
Value="Qty - Total Customer, Year">
Step 2) Define the share measure explicitly since we have already calculated the denominator needed for composite share.
Check for division by 0 error before performing the share calculation explicitly as Numerator= Qty (for current cell/reporting context) and Denominator = Qty - Total Customer, Year (from Step 1)
olap dml expression: if SALESCUBE_QTY_TCUST_YR ne 0 then SALESCUBE_QTY / SALESCUBE_QTY_TCUST_YR else na
in awxml - this becomes:
ETMeasureColumnName="QTY_SHARE_TCUST_YR"
Name="QTY_SHARE_TCUST_YR"
MeasureExpression="OLAP_DML_EXPRESSION('if SALESCUBE_QTY_TCUST_YR ne 0 then SALESCUBE_QTY / SALESCUBE_QTY_TCUST_YR else na', NUMBER)">
<Classification
Value="AwmDescriptionType=OLAP_DML_CALC"/>
<Description
Type="LongDescription"
Language="AMERICAN"
Value="Qty - Share of Total Customer, Year">
</Description>
Report needs to use measure QTY_SHARE_TCUST_YR (Qty - Share of Total Customer, Year) defined in Step 2. It may be useful to expose/display intermediate measure QTY_TCUST_YR also so as to make the basis of calculation very clear to the user.
Nick,
If you customize above soln. to use Total Time, Total Prod and Total Organization (along 3 dimensions)... I am sure the fact table has a time dimension which should also be factored in in your calc/defn.
If you have missed out the join to Time dimension from fact in your queries, in olap reporting terms, its similar to Time Dimension selection of Time level = TTIME Total Time (1 node at TOP).
You need:
Step 1) Qty - Total Time, Total Product and Total Org
Step 2) Qty - Share of Total Time, Total Product and Total Org
Then the example you gave should be covered via QTY and QTY_SHARE_TTIME_TPROD_TORG (Step 2)
SUM(quantity)
2875should be QTY, QTY_SHARE_TTIME_TPROD_TORG (=100%) at Time level = TTIME, Product level = TPROD, Org level = TORG
SUM(quantity)
345 [12% of all products sold]should be QTY, QTY_SHARE_TTIME_TPROD_TORG (=12% hopefully) at Time level = TTIME, Product level = PROD with report filter on product = 'CX-867054', Org level = TORG
SUM(quantity)
977 [34% of all products sold]should be QTY, QTY_SHARE_TTIME_TPROD_TORG (=34% hopefully) at Time level = TTIME, Product level = TPROD, Org level = STORE with report filter on store = 'NY_ALBA_013'
SUM(quantity)
88 [3.06% of all products sold]should be QTY, QTY_SHARE_TTIME_TPROD_TORG (=3.06% hopefully) at Time level = TTIME, Product level = PROD with report filter on product = 'CX-867054', Org level = STORE with report filter on store = 'NY_ALBA_013'

Extended Notifications - Not retrieving WI if multiple selection schedules

I configured multiple schedule selections in SWNCONFIG. If I have 1 schedue due it retrieves the work items correctly. However, if multiple schedules are due it determines that they are both due but successfully retrieves the work items only for the first schedule it processes. It appears that it is resetting the timestamp it is using to retrieve the work items to the current timestamp after it processes the first schedule so when it gets to the second schedule it wont retrieve any work items unless they were created while SWN_SELSEN was running after the first schedule was processed and the second one started (I confirmed this in debug).
I opened a problem report with SAP but have not heard back yet and was wondering if the problem is due to my SWNCONFIG settings.

Bob

hi Bob,
Yes, the selection schedules are processed in a sequence.
Can you send me the message number, so that i can go through and check if i can help you out in this regard.

Data retrieval displayed on multiple pages - Servlets

I am using mysql database, JDBC and Servlets.
Could anyone tell me the best way to display the data retrieved from the database in multiple pages. For example I have 215 records and I want the data displayed in several pages with 10 rows per page.
I want something similar to these forum pages where I can move forward, back, first and last through the database.
Thanks in advance

Hans Bergsten's JSP book from O'Reilly has an example that manages that trick with JSTL. You should buy a copy and download the JSTL implementation from Jakarta and try it out. - MOD
