Security removed from business rules

Hi,
The business rules for an application stopped working with an error it could not be validated against the database. I looked on this thread
Error validating business rule
The security was no longer present. The business rules had not been imported. I added it back in and things started working. I would like to know why the security was lost as I have not seen this before.
Thanks,
Nathan

Has it only every happened once and on one rule? If so I am not sure if you will get a definitive answer to why the rule has no security.
Cheers

ODI provide a dos batch file to invoke the ODI interface. But, how can I call batch file from business rule.
I am using planning version 11.1.1

Thanks.

Group Security Issue with Business Rules

Hopefully you experts out there can follow this. We have about 200 users in our Planning application split into 3 categories (Admins, Interactive Users and Planners) via groups setup in Shared services. We also have an email group list setup in Outlook that has all 200 users in it that we use to send out emails to all users regarding the application. So in Shared Services we have the email group list as an assigned group in the Planners group. So as new people are added to the group list in email they are automatically included as a user in the Planning application. People that are Admins or Interactive Users are manually added to those groups in Shared Services. Everything seemed to be working fine until we tried blocking the Planners groups from running certain business rules in the application. We have clusters setup in Essbase to control access to the business rules. I went into the cluster and set the Planners group to cannot validate or launch on certain rules but found that I now could not run the business rules either even though I am an Admin and the Admin group has vaildate and launch privledges in the cluster. I believe the issue has to do with the fact that I am by default in the Planners group because I am in the email group list which is assigned to the Planners group in Shared Services. Other than setting up and managing 3 seperate email group lists and assigning them individually in Shared Services, does anyone know how I can manage business rules security using the 3 groups i have setup? I hope this makes sense. If not I can provide more detail. Thanks.

Have you tried using Business Rules projects? Create a project for the admin Shared Services group and assign all rules to that group. Create a Planning project for planners and assign only rules that you want them to run. Any rule that planners should not have access to would be removed from the Planner business rules project, but still in the admin project for you to run.

Security issue in Business Rule

Hi All,
I've one user who is provisioned for business rules in shared services. I can see the user in Essbase user list. But when I try to assign the user to a business rule, I don't see that user in the "Add user" pop up box. There are total 121 essbase users and 120 users can be assigned to the business rule except that one. This is quite surprising and I tried lot of options but no result yet.
I'm using system 9.2. And I tried below options:
Deprovision the user and provision him again in shared service.
Ran the security refresh in planning desktop
restart essbase services
Please let me know if you have any idea to correct this issue, Thanks in advance!!

Log into "My Oracle Support" and have a search for doc id 763345.1, read section "Users and rights"
Hopefully it will be useful to you.
Cheers

Control process flow from Business Rules

hi
i would wish to control the process flow in BPEL by using Business Rules(based on conditions) rather than using Switch. how can i accomplish this? please do help me in this.

what do you mean with control the process flow? Do you mean to destine which partner link is called? Or just make some decissions through the business rules and use a switch afterwards....
If you are talking about controlling the partner link to be called, then you should have a look at the chapter three of the cookbook
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/bpel_cookbook/carey.html
You could use the outcome of the business rule to make a decission which endpoint reference to use. Perhapes even return the endpoint reference from the business rule...

Running Maxl from business rule

Hi,
We have very large BSO cube and we decided to create ASO for aggregation purposes.
We were thinking of running the replicate partition with Maxl, but we want to do it at the end of every business rule.
In order to do it we want to have the possibility to run Maxl from the BR. We heard that there is a way to do so, but we couldn't find guide / tutorial / any other thing that will give the proper explanation.
We are working with 11.1.2.2
Can someone help?
Thanks,

Rtp from Business rule to be passed as template parameter using Member Range DTP type

This is what I am trying to do. Use a template to define a part of the code and restrict the code from running for a particular Month. I have created a member range DTP and defined default values in it to exclude the one month I do not want.
I have set up the template in my rule as given below and basically the parameter that is to be passed is a runtime prompt (rtp_Month), which I have selected.
%Template(name:="Test",application:="XXXX",plantype:="Plan1",dtps:=("StartMonth":=([[Period.{rtp_Month}]])))
Now when i run this, what will happen? Will the rule just skip the template part when rtp_month is the one i have excluded in the member range?
OR, is this not the way to do what i am intending. I see a 'restricted value' type, but not sure how to get it to work.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply Sree.
This is what I am trying to do.
FIX ({rtp_StartMonth}:Aug)
Calculations
ENDFIX
FIX(Sep)
Calculations
ENDFIX
Now, when rtp_Month is selected as Sep, the first block of code should not run. So the template I created has the first fix block like,
FIX ([Startmonth]:Aug)
Calculations
ENDFIX
So, final BR code:
%Template(name:="Test",application:="XXXX",plantype:="Plan1",dtps:=("StartMonth":=([[Period.{rtp_Month}]])))
FIX(Sep)
Calculations
ENDFIX
I am assuming: if i use the range DTP type and exclude 'sep' while defining the default values, the rule would bypass the template and run my second block of code.
Is this assumption wrong?

DB Call from Oracle Business Rule +Java Method call from OBR

Hi,
1.We have a requirement in project where we need to make DB Call from Business rule.
We are using ORACLE SOA11g.
Is this possible.Any pointers on this will be helpfull.
2.Can we call java method from Oracle Business Rule.If so pls suggest how it can be done.
Thanks In Advance,
Oracle SOA User

You can implement java class to make database updates using JDBC. You can add Java class as fact in business rules and invoke methods as actions of the business rules.
Hope this will help.

Upgrade Business rules with Calc Manager

Hello Gurus,
Recently performed an upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 by replicating the Database to a new database machine.
I had Business rules in 11.1.1.3 and did not perform any steps to migrate the rules to Calculation manager in 11.1.2.2
The doubt I have is,
1. Are the business rules automatically upgraded when performing upgrade by EPM system configurator (since the database is replicated)
2. If so, how do I see the business rules in 11.1.2.2 environment? How can I use migrate feature option.
Thanks
HyperionEPM.

From 11.1.2.2 documentation:
Upgrade Wizard
If your application used Oracle Hyperion Business Rules, the Upgrade Wizard automatically converts Business Rules business rules to Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. Release 11.1.2.2 supports onlyBusiness Rules business rules as the calculation module.
Notes:
•Classic application administration is now called Oracle Hyperion Planning application administration (versus Oracle Hyperion EPM Architect application administration).
•The Upgrade Wizard automatically upgrades applications having Oracle Hyperion Business Rules business rules, converting them to Calculation Manager business rules. However, the Upgrade Wizard does not automatically convert Release 11.1.2.1 applications having Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. For those upgrade instructions, see the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
Business Rules Maintenance Release and Upgrade Installation PrerequisitesIf you are using Business Rules, you must migrate to Calculation Manager rules in Release 11.1.2.2. Before migrating business rules, you must perform prerequisite tasks. Note that these tasks are required if you are applying the maintenance release or if you are upgrading.
To prepare to migrate Business Rules, perform the following tasks in your current Business Rules environment before installing Release 11.1.2.2:
1.in Business Rules, within the Rule Editor, remove the associated outline (that is, the design time location) from each business rule. After you do this, the Associated Outline drop-down list should display the text, Select Outline.
2.On the Locations tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has a valid launch location, which must be an absolute location. Although “All Locations” is valid in Business Rules, when you migrate business rules, you must provide the details of a specific launch location (that is, the application type---Planning or Essbase, the server name, the application name, and the database or plan type). If you want a business rule to be valid for multiple launch locations, you must provide the details for each location. The locations must be in different applications; you cannot migrate the same business rule to different plan types in the same application within Calculation Manager.
If the rule is a part of a sequence, then the launch location of the rule within the sequence must be one of the launch locations listed in the Locations tab of the rule.
3.On the Access Privileges tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has security defined for a specific location or locations and not “All Locations.” If multiple locations are defined for a business rule on its Locations tab, you must add security for each location individually.
4.Do not modify rules in Calculation Manager until migration is completed.
5.If you are using Business Rules with Planning, as a precaution, create a backup of the rules: Use Administration Services to export the rules to XML in Business Rules format. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format. EPM System Configurator exports the rules during database configuration for use during application upgrade.
6.If you are an Essbase-only Business Rules user, you must export business rules. To export the Essbase rule from Business Rules:
a.From Administration Services Console, right-click the Business Rules node and select Export.
b.Export the rules in Business Rules format and then select all of the Essbase rules in the repository. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format.
c.Specify the location to save the XML file, and then click OK. If you are upgrading, the location should be a shared drive that is accessible from the upgraded environment.
Make a note of the location. You import the file later in the process.
Migrating Business Rules to Calculation Manager for use with Planning
If you applied the maintenance release to move from Planning Release 11.1.2.0 or 11.1.2.1 to Release 11.1.2.2, and you were using Business Rules rules, you must migrate the rules to Calculation Manager rules.
Before you migrate, ensure that user directories and native users with the same SID are available when you upgrade Shared Services.
Ensure that the Planning applications are upgraded to the current release and are available in Calculation Manager under SYSTEM View.
To migrate Business Rules rules to Calculation Manager rules:
1.In Calculation Manager, select the migrated Planning application, and then select Migrate.
The data that was exported during database configuration with EPM System Configurator is imported to Calculation Manager.
2.Repeat for each Planning application.
3.Deploy the rules from Calculation Manager to Planning. See the Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager Designer's Guide.
After migrating business rules and rules security, if any of the rules had multiple launch locations and you migrated to more than one location, Calculation Manager creates a rule for the first migration, and shortcuts for all subsequent migrations. If the rule had rule-level variables, for the shortcuts that are created in the application in the new environment , its variables are moved to the Plan level. In this scenario, test rules in your environment to ensure that they work as expected.
If you still have problems, raise an SR and we can get on a call to figure out why the rules are not coming over.

When a sequence is created in planning and business rules added to it, can

When a sequence is created in planning and business rules added to it, can be seen in planning and on task lists. However when further rules added, the sequence disappears from planning and from task list and can no longer be seen

The security on each business rule will affect whether the sequence is visible - the underlying rules determine whether you see the sequence. If just one is not right the sequence will not be visible. Check the security - or add the rules to a project and assign project level security...

How to undeploy business rules deployed in Planning

I am unable to undeploy test business rules deployed on Production. Deleting from calculation manager leaves BR in planning.. is there in any other option??

Try this http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/cmgr_admin/ch07s03s01.html
"To remove a business rule or ruleset from an application after you deploy the business rule or ruleset, make it ineligible for deployment by clearing the check box next to its name in the Deployment View. Then you can perform a full deployment of the application by right-clicking it and selecting Deploy."
As you've already deleted rule from Calc manager try to create empty rules with the same name (if first full deployment wouldn't help)

Validate ADF UI field as per Oracle Business Rules

Hi ,
I have a requirement where the relationship between the various data fields are defined in Oracle Business Rule 11g inside BPM Project.I need to call these rules on ADF screens for data population.
Eg, If there are two fields on ADF UI,field1 and fiedl2.
Possible combinations of the two field are:
Field1 Field2
A B
C D
E null
The rules are part of OBPM 11g project as customer can change the rules through composer at run time as per business need.
How can i achieve this requirement.Please help urgent.
Regards...

Hi Daniel
Lets say i have two attribute 'Product Code' and 'Department id'.The relationship between the two attributes is defined in Oracle Business Rule.
eg.
If Product Code is '111' then Department is 'Finance'
If Product Code is '222' then Department is 'Inventory'
The values for each of the attribute is defined in a database
Product Code Table
Value Description
111 SalaryAllowance
222 Current Stock
Department Table
Value Description
Finance Handles Payroll
Inventory Handles Packaging
I am displaying these two attribute on the ADF UI as dropdowns. If I select '111' from the product code dropdown then the value in Department dropdown should automatically be set as 'Finance'.I need to trigger the validation/relationship between the attributes from business rules.
The reason for keeping the relationship in rules is because business wants to change these relationships at run time.
Hope the scenario is clear to you.
Regards...
