Smart View .103

how to change the member selection defaults of vertical to horizontal. I was wondering how to change this so instead of it defaulting to vertical then to make it set and default to horizontal.
Anyone know about this?

The default is vertical when SV cannot tell what orientation the dimension is laid out in the grid. There is no way to change this.

HsSetValue in Smart View 11.1.2.1.103

Greetings, the team I am working in is having an issue executing the hssetvalue command. The function is built and, submit data is pressed and, the data is not saved to the database. We also used the refresh button with the same result. The submit zero checkbox is checked within the Smart View options. Is there something that we are missing? Please advise. Thanks.

Thanks I'm a little confused. You're wanting to put data into the database, but you're using HSGetValue? Are you pulling data from one connection and submitting that data to another? You used the refresh button with the same result as what?
What is the issue you are having with the HSGetValue?

Member Selection issue Smart View 11.1.2.1.102

Hi there!
I am experiencing an issue with several different cubes when accessing the member selection function in Smart View version 11.1.2.1.102. The issue is isolated to 4 Essbase cubes, but among the 4 are both ASO & BSO.
When I highlight the top, left-most Dimension name and click member selection, NO member names display and the dropdown list is unavailable. As soon as the given Dimension is moved out of the POV, I am able to see the full member list. This also means that the member that has moved into the top, left-most position now has the issue of not being able to select any members (certain dimensions are fine no matter their position).
I am able to move members around by pivoting the dimension and the member selection function behaves normally for some, but the issue pops back up as soon the dimension is moved back to the POV position.
If anyone has run into this issue with SmartView before and has a fix, please let me know. I would be happy to clarify my issue if anyone is unclear on what exactly I am trying to describe.
Thank you for your time!

This was a bug in 11.1.2.1.102. I'm not sure if it was fixed in 11.1.2.1.103 or 11.1.2.2 (I think 11.1.2.103)
It does not hurt you to upgrade to a higher version of Smart View

Smart View internal metadata error when creating SmartView reports

Hi all,
I have a really strange problem when trying to use HsGetValue -functions in Smart View (in Excel 2010).
The thing is that I can create a lot of formulas for a sheet that have links to other sheets. However, in some pont (I don't exactly when it happens), I quite randomly get an error in Excel saying "This workbook contains Smart View internal metadata that needs to be repaired. This will automatically be repaired but may take some time". This error box appears a few times, I just click it and then it disappears. Obviously, this is annoying and the Excel is unusable.
Usually it happens when I try to format the sheet or add, e.g., company logo into the sheet, or try to do a bit more difficult linking of the cells.
Any ideas what is going on here? Smart View version is 11.1.2.1.103 (Build 100).
Thanks in advance!

Please take a look at KB ID 1432526.1. I've copied the text below.
Applies to:
Hyperion Financial Management - Version: 11.1.2.1.102 and later [Release: 11.1 and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
The following message is displayed when opening the Smart View files:
This workbook contains Smart View internal metadata that needs to be repaired. This will automatically be repaired but may take some time.
It may take a long time to open or save the Smart View templates.
Changes
Smart View has been installed by a user different, than the one that is currently logged on the workstation, i.e. service account or installation account.
Cause
When the user accesses Smart View for the first time, on a workstation where the SmartView has been installed by another user, the following registry key will be missing in the user's profile:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions\HyperionSmartView\Preferences]
"UseStorageCompression"=hex:01
"SelectedOptionTab"=hex:02
If SmartView is installed by a different user i.e. service account or installation account, then the user profile registry will be missing "UseStorageCompression" and "SelectedOptionTab", resulting in a incorrect saving of file metadata.
Solution
Follow the steps below to automatically create the required registry keys for the current user profile:
1.Open Excel and select Smart View menu.
2.Click the "Options" icon to open the Options window.
3.In the "Advanced" tab, under the "Compatibility" section make sure the "Reduce Excel File Size" option is selected and click OK.
4.The following Windows Registry keys will be created under user profile, enabling proper compression of the metadata:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions\HyperionSmartView\Preferences]
"UseStorageCompression"=hex:01
"SelectedOptionTab"=hex:025.Now the user should be able to open the smartview template without the error message.
6.Additionally it is also recommended to select the "Improve Metadata Storage" option in the Smart View Options window which will create the following registry key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions\HyperionSmartView\Preferences]
"IgnoreShapes"=hex:01

Installed Smart View Patch 19858481

I just updated to 11.1.2.5.216 and was wondering if there is any issue for Essbase 11.1.2.2.103. I followed the procedure given here, https://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Services/download?type=readme&aru=18235061. Besides Essbase we also use,
Hyperion Shared Services 11.1.2.2.300
Financial Reporting 11.1.2.2.303
Calculation Manager 11.1.2.2.302
We had a really large quote from our vendor for the same update. So, we are trying to find out if there is any missing piece involved in it.

As long as you have followed the Smart View upgrade Doc you need not worry, people can tell you various ways for Smart View upgrade but it is as simple as it is documented.
As you are upgrading from release 11.1.2.2.103 you can simply run the executable from the Patch (without uninstalling previous version) and install the latest version of Smart View.
You can also perform an auto deployment of smart view to upgrade SV on multiple systems.

Can't load data through smart view (ad hoc analysis)

Hi,
There is EPM application where I want to give ability to planners to load data through smart view (ad hoc analysis). In Shared Services there are four options in
EssbaseCluster-1: Administrator, Create/Delete Application, Server Access, Provisioning Manager. Only Administrator can submit data in smart view (ad-hoc analysis). But I don't want to grant Essbase administrator to planners, I'm just interested to give them ability to load data through ad-hoc analysis. Please suggest!

I take that you refreshed the Planning security, If not refresh the security of those users. Managing Security Filters
Check in EAS whether those filters are created with "Write" permissions.

in our company we have OBIEE 11.1.1.7.140715 and we are testing Oracle Smart View 11.1.2.5.400 (Build 376) on Excel 2007 32 bit and Excel 2013 64 bit to allow our final users to work more easily.
Unfortunately almost all of our reports contains prompts and when we try to insert an object in the Excel worksheet we see the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object” and Excel hangs.
Is there any solution?
Many thanks.

Smart View error logging in to an application

Hello,
I successfully installed Smart View on a computer with Windows XP SP3. I can connect to the data source, but when I try to connect to an application, after entering the username and password, an error pops up: "Requested operation failed. Error: java.lang.NullPointerException"
Do anybody know the issue?
Thanks!

Hi,
Are you connecting to a Planning or Essbase datasource connection?
Can you try connecting to other DS connections to see if it works?
If connecting to an Essbase datasource, have you configured your APS correctly?

Not able to export web analysis report to excel smart view from workspace

Not able to export web analysis report to excel smart view from workspace.
Error :Web launch operation has been cancelled.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issues

I realized that I can put a block in WebI and then I can pull that in excel alongside of static header, after putting the question.
My interest to know whether it is by design in XI 3.0 or it is an issue. But by the replies it seems to me like it is by design.
@Anis: I can't go for header as part of Body. Because this report is viewed in Web by many other users. I can't have separate report for Live office, it is a restriction for me. If I use the header in body, it wont look good I guess.

Office 365 Web Apps are not supported and cannot be supported as there is no platform for add-in's in that environment. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13602
Most Office 365 uses cases and users end up with Office installed on the desktop and at that point we are talking about normal Office Support. Right now it is up to the Office 365 administrator to determine the version of Office to be used by their 365 users. http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-us/office365-enterprises/ff637585.aspx
Short answer is that Smart View does not support Office 365 Web Apps and there are no plans to support the Web Apps.

Dear Experts,
We are now working with Excel 2007 and Smart View 9.3.1.4.041, and encounter the problem that ervery time open the protected excel file there would be the warning message "Drawing Objectes in one or more sheet(s) in the workbook are protected. Please unprotect them and try to save again."
Can any one suggest with;
1. How to set the Excel security settings for Excel 2007 to work for smart view?
2. How to avoid the message mentioned above while working with Excel 2007?
3. How to create a protected Excel file to work with Smart View 9.3.1.4.041 both in Excel 2003 and Excel 2007?
Tks

I've experiencied similiar problems, though other users may have found a better solution, I've unlocked the spreadsheat, refreshed, and then relocked via a VBA macro. A button object at the top of the spreadsheet was added to make it easier for the users use as well. If there is a better solution I am very interested in this as well.

How to see Shared Members in Smart View on Ad-hoc Analysis mode

Hi All,
We are using Hyperion Planning v 11.1.1.3.
For the alternate hierarchy we have created shared members. But in Smart View we are unable to see Shared members hierarchy in Ad-hoc analysis mode.
Is this limitation in Hyperion Planning?
Or
Is there any way to see shared members Hierarchy in Smart View in Ad-hoc analysis mode?
It is urgent requirement Please let me know as early as possible
Thanks in Advance!!!

When you say open data form in Ad-hoc mode, can you do that? I think when you select Ad-hoc mode, you are basically connecting to Essbase and therefore need to manually select the members. (of course, I've got a 11.1.2 env right now so not too sure of 11.1.1.3)
I'm able to just go to Member Selection and select whatever hierarchy i want, Shared or Stored, when I'm connected to Essbase. When connecting to Planning, I dont have any option of opening the form as Ad-hoc mode.
Can you see the hierarchy if selecting the members using Essbase connection and not planning?
Cheers,
Abhishek

"Open in Smart View" option. Hyperion Planning version 11.1.1.3

Failure to download planning form to Smart View using the "Open in Smart View" option. Hyperion Planning version 11.1.1.3. Error message "Web launch operation has been cancelled.
Your feedback is appreciated.

I understand you are on 11.1.1.3.
However, this is documented in the Known Issues section of the Smart View 11.1.2.1 readme and could be worth a try:
When you try to open a Planning web form in Smart View through Workspace, you may get this error: “Web launch operation has been cancelled.” This happens if Essbase has not been added as a server in Shared Connections. Workaround: Open the Smart View Panel in Smart View and add an Essbase server as described in the online help or "Adding Essbase Servers" in chapter 2 of the Smart View User's Guide.

Attributes Not Working in Smart View

Hi All,
I have an ASO database that has attributes on the Cost Center dimension. In EPMA and in EAS, the attributes are correctly shown. When I pull data in Smart View for a specific cost center, I see data. When I apply the correct attribute, the data comes back as "N/A". I know for a fact that this cost center IS tagged as the attribute I am pulling, but it will not show in Smart View as belonging to that attribute. I am using version 11.1.2.3 and Smart View version 11.1.2.3.000 (Build 157).
Any thoughts?

Hello,
this is indeed strange. Not a real answer, but here are some suggestions to get more details:
Case sensitive?
What was the attribute of this cost center before?
Try a report on this cost center with all attributes. Does one work?
Try a different front end tool.
From EPMA do a full deploy (make sure you have saved you essbase objects to a save location)
Does it work?
Change the Attribute and deploy it again. Does it work?
If you found it, please update this here, so others will be able to find the solution.
Regards,
Philip Hulsebosch
