Smart View Sessions

Hi,
We are running Hyperion 931 suite - Shared Services, Essbase, Planning.
In SmartView, I added a data source, connected to it and after performing some basic operations, disconnected from the server.
When I Click on 'Connect', system is not asking for my credentials but directly getting connected. What should be done to let the system ask for credentials each time users tries to connect to the same datasource?
Note - We have registered Essbase, Planning, Provider Services and migrated security to Shared Services.
Thanks much..!!

Hi,
One possible route is using the VBA function - HypDisconnectAll()
This function
Disconnects all active connections from both Independent Provider Connections and Common Provider Connections in the Data Source Manager.
Disconnects Provider Services.
Invalidates the SSO token.
Cheers

Unable to access Smart View 11.1.2.5.216 within Outlook 2007

All,
I uninstalled Smart View 11.1.1.3.x from my MS Windows 7 (x32) Professional SP1 machine and installed Smart View 11.1.2.5.216 during the same session (ie, without rebooting).
While SmartView comes up perfectly fine when I access Excel, Word and PowerPoint and I can connect to the various 11.1.2.3.00 EPM data sources, I cannot see the Smart View ribbon under MS Outlook. This is in spite of:
- having changed my MS Office 2007 installation to run Visual Basic Scripting Support on my PC for MS Outlook 2007 only (ie, via Control Panel > Programs and Features > MS Office Standard 2007 > Change > Add or Remove Features);
- deleting the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions key and underlying sub-keys, after uninstalling 11.1.1.3 and before installing 11.1.2.5.216
There are no disabled COM add-ins displayed under MS Outlook 2007 and there were no further Hyperion-related entries (ie, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Hyperion.CommonAddin) to amend\delete under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\AddIns. Moreover, I searched but could not find the Smart View PST file on my machine.
Would anyone have any suggestions as to where else I could be looking and\or what else I could be doing to enable Smart View under MS Outlook 2007?
Thanks in advance.
JBM

Hi JBM,
Yeah for SmartView in outlook it does need PST file and on installation it created it automatically.
Could you try adding smartview addin in outlook,
and browse hsaddin.dll and hstbar.xla which are smartview required files.hstbar.xla in mandate one. do try this. if it doesn't work then i would suggest you to try uninstalling SmartView
reboot your machine
open cmd prompt with admin rights and navigate to the path where smartview executable is present and launch it through cmd prompt , it would install smartview with full admin rights and solve most of the issues.
Thanks

Smart View 9.3.1 error to connecting Hyperion Planning using Excel

Hello Folks,
When I try to connect the Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 using Smart View 9.3.1 I had the following error "Client authorization is needed to accpet the certificate". I am using the URL connection with the following address http://server_name:8300/HyperionPlanning/SmartView.
Regards,

Venkat,
Based on our web session your production BEA license has not been installed and your production server is limiting the number of unique connections to five clients. Those first five clients who connected to the system.
As we proved in the web session Internet Explorer gets a 403 error and Firefox shows the root cause of the five license issue.
You may verify this by looking at the license.bea file on your servers and you will see it is an evaluation license. Being a licensed Hyperion customer entitles your company to use a restricted use WebLogic in a non-clustered environment. Below is the proper license.
The fix for this is to do the following:
1) Download a license code from Oracle
2) Go to http://licensecodes.oracle.com/bea.html
3) Download LIC-WLXB92
4) On your server(s) backup <BEA_DIRECTORY>\license.bea
5) Copy text file within the LIC-WLXB92 over the license.bea file
6) Restart your Hyperion Services

Hi,
Yes, essbase could help make your reports faster, but it depends also on the cube design. Essbase allows you to calculate all the upper levels and store it. This is (2+2=4), essbase stores 2 and 2 and 4 so then you can go and read the total with the report without having to calculate it wihle the user is retreiving the data. This is a good advantage of essbase.
About #2, no one can tell you if you should or should not use Informatica as that depends on each company. You can use OBIEE with Essbase and you will need a place to store the data that Essbase will then pull up. It could be any DB you want...
Hope this helps.

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.

Oracle Smart View 11.1.2.5.400 prompt bug still not resolved?

Good morning,
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.

Can't access "Range Retrieval" & "Butterfly report" features in smart view

Hi Experts,
I need your help regarding enabling new features of smart view.
I am not able to use the following feature of smart view:
- Range Retrieval
- Butterfly report
Do I have to configure any settings to enable this feature??
Currently I am using the following:
smart view client: 11.1.2.2.00
smart view provider: 11.1.2.1.00
Essbase: not sure (will try to get the info if needed)
Thanks in advance experts

Hi Glenn,
Thank you for your response.
That must be the cause.
I saw a documentation that the smart view 11.1.2.2 is compatible with service provider 11.1.2.X,
but did not mention any loss in functionality for earlier versions like 11.1.2.1.00.
maybe I missed it.
Thanks again for your help

'Smart view' in iTunes

The only thing that is stopping me from switching from WinAmp to iTunes is the 'Smart View' feature in Winamp, which I don't believe is used by many people but which I find extremely useful.
Let me explain:
In Winamp, I have set up some dynamic playlists, that are generated based on a query that extracts Genre information to build the list. I have playlists for chilled, heavy, jazzy, folky, sleepy music etc. and any new music that I add to the library is automatically added to the playlist. For example, the query for my 'Sleepy' music looks like this:
genre = "Classical" OR (artist = "Sigur Rós" AND album !="Von Brigði") OR genre HAS "Ambient" OR genre = "Downtempo" OR artist="Mike Oldfield" OR genre="Trip-Hop"
This means that ANY new music falling into the above categories is automatically added and I rarely have to update the query unless there is a specific artist whose music I would like to add to the list but which does not fall into one of the aforementioned genres. Notice how the query above specifically mentions the album "Von Brigði" - this is an excluder, as I had noticed that tracks from this album were always waking me up when they came on (it's a remix album)
Anyway, the point is, I'm soon to get a Mac and will have to leave Winamp behind. Is there any way of doing a similar thing in iTunes?

in iTunes, it's called a _*smart playlist*_.
