Thanks
maxx

I have a problem with old excel-addin, excel crash when retrieve data or drill down.
smart view works fine, but is not compatible with old version of file excel created with old essbase add-in. Exist a work around to use old file excel with smart view.

  • Smart View 'Free-Form' vs Excel Add-In

    The following Sample.Basic retrieve is valid in the Excel Add-In:
    Actual
    100-10
    Jan
    New York
    1234
    Connecticut
    5678
    It will retrieve in Smart View, but always converts immediately to this:
    Actual
    100-10
    Jan
    New York
    1234
    Connecticut
    5678
    Note that the Scenario and Product members have jumped over to 'stack' on the Year member.
    I can't find any way to stop this happening.  The context is converting some legacy Add-In reports.  Users don't want to change the layout at all, if avoidable.

    Frankly for me, the issue you have is minor, but I don't know your users
    Hi Glenn, to respond (seriously) to this point - yes, it's not really a disaster.  But there are ten years' of accumulated Add-In reports at this client, some formatted carefully for presentation.
    One nasty real example:
    Say those POV/page members for Scenario and Product are fed from formulas; cell references to a master sheet. And that those rows are hidden for display purposes.
    Now the user starts using Smart View instead of the Add-In.  The first time she refreshes, everything looks good, so she thinks "No changes necessary for this one - next!".
    But Smart View has - unseen - pasted the current literal values for Scenario and Product into all the other columns on the report (none of the formula options seem to affect this).
    The next time the user runs it, updating the master sheet Scenario and Product doesn't have any effect on the retrieve.
    It's a shame Smart View feels the need to mess with the layout, since it is clearly capable of interpreting the first format correctly.

  • Essbase Excel Add-In (11.1.2.1) and Office 2010

    I was wondering if anyone knows if the Essbase Excel Add-In (v11.1.2.1) is compatible in Office 2010 (64-bit)?
    I found some search results from about 6-8 months ago saying that it was supported in Office 2010, but not in the 64-bit edition. Does anyone know if this has changed and if this is in fact supported?
    If not supported has it been tested to at least work?
    Thank you in advance.

    Have a read of the following on Oracle Support - Support for Office 2010 in Essbase Excel Add-In and Smart View [ID 1191235.1]

  • Essbase Excel Add-in for Excel 2013

    Hi There,
    I recently upgrade from Excel 2010 to 2013, it seems Essbase Excel Add-in (1.1.2.2) has some issue with Excel 2013, does anybody experience this too, any advice on this?
    Thanks

    The excel add-in is not certified to work with Excel 2013 and a matter of fact, the only version of Smart View certified with it is 11.1.2..5 which just came out. The Essbase Add-in has not been updated in a shile and has been susetted by Oracle so there will be no new versions of it

    Hey, we are using Essbase excel add-in 11.1.2 with office 2010 Excel even though Excel 2010 is not supported by Oracle. Do you know of any other users using it with Excel 2010? Any problems reported?

  • Essbase excel add-on error after installing IR Studio.

    Hyperion software compatibility issues?
    Getting Essbase excel add-on error ("Error 1040007 Cannot find message database") after installing Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio 9.3.1. We are able to consistently reproduce the error on several workstations.
    Any ideas?
    Thx,
    Ernesto

    Try installing IR first, followed by the Essbase client. I think that worked for us. I can't recall what our path looked like in that scenario I just remember if we did it in that order things worked fine. I think Support said there is no certain "install order" that truly fixes the problem, that you have to manipluate the path by hand. But I'm pretty sure installing IR first worked in our enviro.
    I do not know of a way to install IR Studio without the Essbase components, my understanding from Support is that they changed the product install thinking it was better this way, they learned after the fact it actually causes the problem you experienced. I would imagine they've changed/fixed the install behavior again in post 9.3.1 releases, but haven't heard.

  • Essbase excel add-in database disappears

    Hi Gurus,
    I have this issue with Essbase Excel add-in.
    When I try to connect to the database, I can see the pop-up where I can specify the SERVER and then I can see the list of databases too. However, when I select the database that I want to connect to and hit OK, the names of all the databases disappear.
    What could be the issue with this?
    Any suggestion would be helpful.
    Thanks

    First question with the add-in -- do you have more than one instance of Excel.exe running? Check it in Task Manager -- if so, kill all of the instances and try again.

  • What version of Essbase Excel add-in support 64 bit Windows 7 on our PC?

    1) Can anyone tell us what is latest version of 64 bit Essbase Excel-add-in 11.1.1.3.x and will this latest version of Essbase Excel add-in support 64 bit Windows 7 on our PC?
    2) we downloaded Essbase excel add-in 11.1.2 and was not able to connect to Essbase 11.1.1.3 server. It gave an error message - "This version is newer than the Essbase server." Is there a workaround? (we were hoping 11.1.2 would support 64 bit windows 7)
    ps. There is a knowlegebase article that teaches us how to get Smartview 11.1.2 to connect to Essbase. We could not quite follow the badly written KB artible, but Ms. V from Oracle tech support claims she was able to connect and she wrote the article.
    We did manage to get Smartview 11.1.2 to connect to Planning 11.1.1.3!!

    Thanks John and Jasmine.
    John,
    I am able to connect using Essbase excel add-in 11.1.2 and see the list of Essbase server 11.1.1.3 app/databases. However when I tried to select one of the applications/databases, I get the Essbase warning "This version of Essbase 11.1.1.3) is older than the version of the Essbase API (11.1.2.0) you are using."
    I get sent back to Essbase system Login screen and am asked to select a app/database. Add-in keeps giving me the above message - none of the 11.1.1.3 databases would allow me to connect.
    I guess you guys did not experience this problem?

  • Will Oracle be making any enchancements to the Essbase Excel Add-in?

    Will Oracle be making any enchancements to the Essbase Excel Add-in?

    If you use vb script, you can use the following:
    ' Step 3. Activate Essbase Excel Add-Ins
    Set myAddIn = XL.AddIns.Add("C:\Hyperion\Essbase\Bin\essexcln.xll")
    myAddIn.Installed = False
    myAddIn.Installed = True
    You need to find the equivalent of the above within excel vba.
    And also the right location of the essexcln.xll.
    With citrix, I guess the issue is with the user profile under
    \Documents and Settings\ that need to be adjusted, but I have
    no further information on this.

  • Unable to find/install Essbase Excel Add-in

    Hello,
    When I installed Essbase on this computer, for some reason we did not have MS Office installed and so the Add-in was not installed automatically.
    Now, I cannot find the essexeln.xll file in the bin director and Excel does not show it as an Add-in. The Excel version I am using is 9.0.3821 SR-1.
    How do I install this add-in on my computer? Thanks.
    -- Adi

    Installing the Essbase Excel add-in is pretty harmless, and I assume this is on a PC not a server correct?
    If this is 9.3.1 and if it's on a PC just run the setup.exe for the "Hyperion Essbase Release 931 Client Windows Installer" - do you still have that downloaded??
    It should fit on a flash drive if you just want to take it over to the PC in question and run the setup.exe. There's the .exe, a .jar and a .inf file that comes with the install.
    Be sure you're logged on as an Admin on the PC before you install, that's easiest.
    Once you install do a reboot just for fun (probably not required but given the history of your install) then go back to your Start | Programs menu and run that register add-in item from above.
    Good luck, hope this helps,
    Karen

  • How to secure data transmission from Essbase Excel add-in to Essbase Server

    I have a requirement to secure the data transmission (encrypt) the data transmission from the Essbase excel add in on the client machine to the Essbase server. I have confirmed with Oracle support that the excel add-in and the API only transmit the data in binary from with no encryption.
    I wanted to see if anyone has implemented this before?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Technical support gave you the correct answer, it is
    not supported. You might check with Tim Tow
    http://www.appliedolap.com to see if either the
    Dodeca or ActiveOlap products support encryption.Glenn is correct in that Oracle doesn't support it. More specifically, the Essbase server itself does not support it.
    The other products mentioned in this thread, Smartview, Spreadsheet Services, Dodeca and ActiveOLAP, all can talk to the middle tier via https and are thus encrypted through that portion of the transaction. However, the communication from the middle tier, Analytic Provider Services in the case of System 9, talks to Essbase via TCP/IP unencrypted. If your middle tier/Essbase server connections are not 'sniffable', then essentially they are secured (albeit not encrypted).

  • Essbase Excel Add-in in 11.1.2.1

    Hi All,
    We have Essbase 9.3.1 in our current configuration with Excel Add-In.
    We want to migrate to Essbase 11.1.2.1 but we still want to use Excel Add-In, as we have VBA Macros.
    Please help me regarding this.
    Thanks
    Satya

    So what's the issue? The add-in is alive and well in Essbase 11.1.2.1.
    You might want to look at the very latest and greatest version of Smart View as it gives you near parity (really, really, really close) with the add-in. Yes, I know, VBA requirements, but worth a look.

  • SUPPORT For Essbase Excel Add in

    Good morning
    When is the support for the old add in being stopped?
    Does this mean all future versions will only come with Smart View?

    To your second question, yes, 11.1.2.3 and onward will have Smart View only.  See Doc ID 1466700.1
    I make this point every time the question comes up, but as Santy suggests, the key point is "support duration".  I have heard the (incorrect) statement  "The Classic Add-In won't be supported from January 1st 2013" too many times... ...existing versions 11.1.2.2 and earlier continue to be supported under normal lifetime support policy.  Although I can't actually remember raising a support ticket in for an Excel Add-In issue and I've been using it for nearly 15 years!
    EDIT - crossed over with Santy
