Smart view first refresh

Hi,
Is there a setting in smart view, by which we can prevent the first auto refresh of data onto the excel sheet, immediately after the login?
Thanks,
Anindyo

In order to avoid SmartView trying to refresh the stored values automatically when the sheet is opened, set Excel's calculation mode to Manual (Tools -> Options..., select the Calculation tab and select Manual)
In Excel 2007 - this is under Formula -> Calculation Options.
HTH-

Hyperion Smart View Refresh gives Error

Hi
I have installed Smart View version 11.1.2 in my Client's computer having 64 bit Operating System.
Whenever he opens the excel file and click first refresh all the cells having HsGetValue formula shows "Error"
It gives the same Error in every cell even after disconnecting and connecting again.
Please help.

So 11.1.1.3 smart view is not compatible for 11.1.1.3 HFM version for 64 bit OS.
This is not a true statement, please review documentation using the following link:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/nav/portal_5.htm
Anyhow, if the "connection panel is blank", is because after installation you must recreate the connection by selecting a url connection using the following sintax:
http://yourservername/hfmofficeprovider/hfmofficeprovider.aspx , the selecting the appropriate HFM Cluster and database, plus user id and password to create the new connection.

Smart view refresh versus Excel Retrieve

Good morning
we are currently converting our users from the old Excel essbase add-in to the new Smartview. We are having issues with some of our users when converting. Some of them were creating retrieves in their excel tabs, HIGHLIGHTING a section, doing their retrieves. This allowed them to keep any non essbase verbage they had on their spreadsheet (so they would not get the retrieve error messages). It appears with Smartview, that you cannot do this as highlighting a section now tells it you want to log into multiple cubes. Can anyone verify for me that highlighting and retrieving in smartview is no longer allowed?
thanks

Prashanth, I think I definitely missed the part where it shows highlight and retrieving (I could see the multi grid, however that is not what highlight and retrieve is)
Consider this scenario
I've an excel sheet which goes from A1:D13 (that is my used range)
Are you saying that I can highlight a1:d6 and perform a retrieve and Smart View will only pull a1:d6? (which is not the case in 11.1.2.2.310, it refreshes full sheet)

Smart View Refresh All and Hidden Tabs

When one of my users does a Refresh All in Excel all of his hidden tabs become unhidden. Is there a setting in Smart View that can stop this from happening?

If this is the case I would say we have a bug. Can you log an SR with all the details and steps to reproduce.

All macros work fine when the sheet is not connected but when i connect it end thh sheet is actived during the refresh Smart view Show me a message:
data cell have modified dou you want submit it to proced.
I click on button "NO" and so i can view all data with the formula ready for the submition without submitted tha data first.
I want to submit data only after some control ceck.
To this regards I'll want to know if is possible to disable this alert message?
Thnks for the help.

Ensure that the new sheet you copied your data to is connected to the appropriate essbase/planning server. Go to Hyperion>Active connections and click on your database.

Smart View Error "OLAP_error (1020013)..."

Good Morning,
My client has Hyperion version 11, and is leveraging Smart View for reporting. Upon attempting to retrieve a report, the following error message was displayed, and the report was not retrieved:
"OLAP_error (1020013): The resultant report cannot be retrieved. Your report heading cannot be interpreted."
This is the first time this error has been encountered after months of usage. Can someone respond with the root cause and resolution?
Thanks!

Hi There,
I don't remember having encountered this error earlier.
From what you posted, I suppose- You might be having some templates on to which you're retrieving, may be, during month end OR on demand.
The only thing that I could think of is- The recent refreshes of your cube may've included members that are clashing with those custom text(s) on your Smartview report template.
- Natesh
P.S.:- Queries in Smartview are meant to be posted in- Smart View
Then, you coiuld possibly have the added advantage of getting responses from- Smartview developers

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.

GlennS_3 wrote:
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.

64-bit Smart View + Excel 2010 64-bit Issues - Help Please

Hello everyone.
First, I am not an "IT guy" so please bare with me as I am not technical but need help.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit Professional and Excel 2010 64-bit. I installed Oracle Smart View for Office, Fusion Edition 64-bit as an add-in within Excel.
I have worked with our "Hyperion Admins" to connect to the right server so that my "private connections" are set correctly (hopefully that makes sense).
However, when I attempt to refresh my Smart View query I end-up retrieving no data. The "refresh" button under "Smart View" in Excel will proceed as a refresh is occurring but then not return data (I know this Smart View template works as I've used it many times on 32-bit Excel).
Our admins have informed me that I cannot use 64-bit Smart View because our "server" is on a 32-bit O/S (or something similar to that). To me, the logic doesn't make sense and I'm hoping that there is a solution the admins are not aware of.
Happy to answer any questions and appreciate any help.

Studio Drill-Through Works in Excel Add-In but not Smart View

So I have a drill-through defined that works fine in the Excel Add-In. But, when I try to drill on the same intersection in Smart View, I get "No drill-through reports found at this location." I used the same member combinations for both, so I know the intersection is correct. Am I missing something simple?
-Brian

There are some limitations on drill through:
These are two ports >>transport.port and server.httpPort.used to communicate with Essbase Spreadsheet Add-in and Hyperion Smart View.
In Hyperion Smart View, drill-through will not work properly. You must refresh the port number stored in the cube by following the instructions in "Updating Cube Linkage" See the Essbase Studio Online Help or Essbase Studio User's Guide.
Change the HTTP Port Number:
If you add an entry for the server.httpPort property in the server.properties file to change it from the default setting of 9080, the following is the state of drill-through connectivity on cubes built prior to the port adjustment.
Note: Cubes built after the port adjustment will work properly. In Smart View, drill-through will work properly.
PS:
With shared connections, Smart View always connects first with the EPM Workspace Web application to authenticate the user and then connects to each provider using the EPM SSO token. With private connections, SmartView authenticates with the provider

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.

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.

Message leaves a bit to be desired.

Thanks for the response.
The message appears when the users attempts to submit data.
Refresh works as expected
Verified provsioning and security class access.
2 different users attempted - each in a different AD group - same entity
Works for other users in other divsions - (different entities)- have not ruled out a process management conflict - but would have expected a different error message.

Hyperion Smart View error

Hi
When i connect to essbase cube through smart view,when i click on refresh, i am getting an error says "Internal error occured".
please suggest what could be the issue,
for smartview query designer to work, do i have to install essbase client also?
Thanks,

Hi,
You don't need to install the essbase client to use Query Designer in Smart View.
I don't think you've supplied enough information for us to offer suggestions on the error. https://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1184
