Smartview Adhoc Analysis Read only

Hi,
we are using Hyperion Planning - basically with Smartview 11.1.2.
We have the requirement that users which are able to put in data via webforms (and they should be able to do so Role: Planner) should use Adhoc Smartview Analysis as read only.
If we assign the role Adhoc Analysis the users are able to submit data also via Adhoc - which is not what we need.
Is there any way to enable users (either Essbase or Planning Adhoc) for adhoc analyses in a read only way on the same datamodel where they have write access to data points.
I appreciate your thoughts on that.
BR

Please post to the Planning Forum.

Smartview tab and Adhoc Analysis Issue

Hi,
I am unable to see the smartview(Hyperion) tab in Excel , how ever i can see the options to connect Datasources and i can see the all other smartview options in in excel window, but when i select one of the planning type(Datasource) and then i clicked on Adhoc Analysis, but after i click on Adhoc Analysis, i can not see anything is come up.
Also i checked registering .dll file and rebooted my machine but that did not work for me
I tried to uninstall and install smartview couple of times but no luck

Essbase Adhoc Analysis Connection - Smartview

Hello,
We are using Hyperion Planning Version 11.1.2. We want to use Smartview to connect to essbase for adhoc analysis. How do i connect to essbase for adhoc analysis. I am struggling to find the URL which I can use for connection to essbase.
Can you please guide.
Cheers,
XXX

In excel go to your options for smart view and enter the following information http://<foundationserver>:19000/workspace/SmartViewProviders
replace <foundationserver> for your servername.
Once done try going to shared connections.

Read Only Access while assigning Analysis Types and Reports in User/Group

Hi Team,
While Assigning Analysis Type,Reports and Workbooks to User "Read" option is not enabled. It is not working and as soon as we select analysis type ,Only one option is editable "Create/Update/Delete". The other two Option is always there as display "Read" and "Execute" . Execute might work with "Scripts template" but "READ" should work for analysis types and Reports.
We are already struggling with "Read Only" Access in security filter as its not working now.
Thanks
Edited by: user7918731 on Mar 2, 2011 11:22 AM

The behavior for Analysis type, workbook and script as follow:-
The Analysis type create/update/delete option will be enabled, read and execute option will be disabled by default.
The report workbook read option will be enabled, and other two options will be disabled.
The script execute option will be enabled, and other two option’s will be disabled.
For providing “Read Only” access in security filter, Switch to the administration tab, Click on Security Filters, Click on Add button, Open Create Security Filter window, Select the access level to Read Only and select user in assigned user , Click on ok.
It should work.

HFM Adhoc Analysis

Hi All,
I have a query regarding Adhoc Analysis in Smartview.
In an Adhoc reports when I click on ZOOM IN or Double click on any of the parent in Account or Entity Dimesion the child is repeating or duplicates the number of times I use double click or Zoom in function.
For Example if I have a parent as Service Revenue and 5 Accounts under it, when in click on Zoom function the 5 childs can be viewed .But when I reclick on the same Parent once again Service Revenue, its agian repeating the childs again and again the number of times i click the zoom in function.
How can I get the Childs only once. Can any one assist me on the below issue.

Hi Srikanth
When you don't want the children comes from parent again and again when you click in Parent member like Zoom Out or In , Do not click the same multiple times, thats it.

Endabling adhoc analysis

Hi All,
We want to enable adhoc analysis in data forms only for certain users. Can it be done?
Thanks

From the docs :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_user/ch03s11.html
"+To save this view of the data form to be accessed again during the current session, select Save Current Form Definition.+
+You can rename the default name to any name except the name of an existing data form. *Private views of data forms are saved in the same folder that contains the main data form, and are visible only to the user who creates them. Access to a private data form depends on the user access privileges and permissions set for the data form folder*.+"

Replication articles read-only in one publication and editable in another

We have many users with a mobile application
running SQL Mobile and using merge replication to get data back to the SQL 2008 R2 database. This has worked very well for many years.
We now have a requirement to have this data reported on using Reporting Services. This is where it gets messy.
Due to a limitation of Report Builder(see this blog)
we cannot provide access to users for creating their own reports. The report database is remote from the host and there is no VPN.
We hit upon the idea of creating an almost identical publication but the articles as read-only. It was only after this was done that we started having trouble with our existing mobile users.
It seems that a published article is EITHER Bi-directional OR Read-only even if they are in separate publications.
I then thought of using Transactional Publication but this too is blocked on creation with "automatic identity range support is useful only for publications that allow updating subscribers"(Merge and Transactional publication are mutually exclusive)
So in the final analysis is there a way for me to have merge replication AND some other form of SQL replication/data transfer that can have the same data transmitted readonly to a separate full SQL server database?
Your insights, ideas and advice appreciated.

What you described is not possible.
You may consider to combine replication and log shipping or republish the data.

AC 5.3 RAR: Adhoc analysis

Hi experts,
today we added another client (new source) from the ERP system to Access Control. Thus we have 2 clients from one ERP system and another seperate ERP system connected to Access Control. We also updated the functions for the new system and generated the rules for the corporate ruleset . From my point of view all requirements for an adhoc analysis are met.
When I perform risk analysis on user level for all users, I receive no results.
When I perform exactly the same analysis giving specific user as arguments, I receive results.
The risk analysis on roles works also fine !
Risk analysis for the other client and the other ERP system work fine.
Do you guys have any idea why a risk analysis for all user doesn't work in my case ?
Thanks !
Regards,
Max

Hi,
I tried to look at the log files (ccapcomp.0.log) to find out how the risk analysis in this specific settings run ... for me, it runs way too fast ... there are about 150 users in this client (~2500 on the whole system) and the analysis takes only 35 msec ???? See the log below:

Best Practice for Hyperion Planning : Essbase or Dataform for Adhoc Analysi

Hi,
with Hyperion Planning, you are able to start an Adhoc Analysis from an Hyperion Planning Dataform or from an Essbase cube?
What is the best way / pro / contra ? thanks in advance
.... I 've juste notice that when you delete the dataform the Retrieve doesn't work anymore :-( .... and with Essbase you get some "un-useful" dimension as HSP_Value
Regards
xavier

A couple of other things that go with Planning as the data source:
1) You have access to all of the non-Essbase data -- think SmartLists, text (okay, it's there now in Essbase, but not from Planning applications) fields, supporting detail, etc. If you want users to see that relationally stored data, the only other way to get it in Excel is to run a Financial Reports report into Excel (or hack the tables and write SQL to pull the stuff -- did that pre 11x and it's too much work).
2) There's a performance hit when going against Planning, just like there is when Planning is the data source in Financial Reports.
Using a form to limit dimensionality - isn't that what SmartSlices are for? I guess it's another way to get to the same place. Although you have to administer the SmartSlices, I would imagine they would break less often than a form might. Having said that, once built, how often do you delete a form?
It's really nice that ad-hoc analysis from forms are now possible, but I've always thought of it as nice feature to have alongside data entry, never as the primary path into Essbase analysis.
Just my $0.02.

2) If other user (YYYY) logs in online mode then it should open in online mode for other user (YYYY).
How to set the security to achieve this.

Read Only/ Plan Mode Changes for a layout with two different queries

Hi,
I have a situvation where a layout opens in a read only mode and when
the users click on button plan, it changes to plan mode. The catch here however is the queries
for read mode and plan mode are slightly different, in the read only mode the query has subtotals
and other calculations that are not a part of the plan mode ( where they input forecasts).
I know if the read and plan query are the same, we can achieve this through the command
SET_DATA_ENTRY_MODE. In case they are different, as above, how can i achieve this.
Thanks
Rashmi.

Say you are using two different queries as DP1 & DP2 for Display and Plan mode respectively. You also have one Analysis grid item in Web template which initially points to DP1.
On PLAN button call command SET_ITEM_PARAMETER to set the data provider of analysis item to DP2.
OR
You have only one dataprovider in your web template as DP1 initially pointing to Query 1 which you want to show in Display mode. Then on PLAN button call a command SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMETERS to point the DP1 to 2nd query instead of 1st query. You can find this command under Commands for data Provider --> Basic data provider commands.

Database Read only

Hi All,
Can SAP application connect to read only SQL Server database ?
We are trying to use secondary database of log shipping, for our operational adhoc reporting of production data.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Mushtaq

Hi Mushtaq,
no, this is not possible. Even if you do not run any reports/transactions which you know will write to the database, the SAP system will run its internal processes and they'll write to the database. For this reason it's not possible to use a read-only DB for an SAP system.

Updating Media Content - stuck at Reset Read Only Attributes.

I'm currently using - MDT 2010 on Windows 7 on a Virutal Machine. I deploy my images using a USB stick. (Advanced Configuration / Media). The process of creating a selection profile, Creating Media, and updating my media works perfectly.
I wanted to move to MDT 2012 SP1 on Server 2008 R2 platform. So I installed AIK, MDT 2012 SP1, etc on a Server 2008 R2 Virtual Machine. I setup the MDT same way as my current working model and it was looking good. Next I created my Selection Profile
and Media. Then when I ran "Update Media" it seems to work until it gets stuck at the last process "Reset Read Only Attributes"
Looking for any advice on why it might keep getting stuck here. The only way I can exit the process it to "Stop Execution"
Reminder - on my Win 7 / MDT 2010 box, it works fine and this process completes.
Thanks for any feedback.

What is happening here is that MDT Litetouch console is calling OSCDIMG.exe, and that program has stopped.
Sadly, MDT does not capture the OSCDIMG.exe output for analysis, so we are stuck here.
I have personally encountered problems with OSCDIMG.exe running on my Windows 8 box, where images created with source files from the C: pass, however when the source files are placed on a "Storage Spaces" volume, the program hangs. No response from MSFT.
If you need help diagnosing the problem, you can run OSCDIMG from a console window, just to see what the output is
OSCDIMG.exe -u2 -udfver102 -m -o -h -w4 "<MediaSrc>" %temp%\Dest.iso
Longer:
OSCDIMG.exe -u2 -udfver102 -m -o -h -w4 -yo"<Path_to_Bootorder.txt>" -bootdata:2#p0,e,b"<Path_TO_ETFSBoot.com>" #pEF,e,b"<Path_TO_EFIsys.bin>" "<MediaSrc>" %temp%\Dest.iso

Smartview adhoc to submit data

we are trying to submit data using smartview adhoc "submit data" button. However, instead of hard coded values in the data cell, we are using a formula to calculate the value to be submitted.
for example, in cell F24, instead of typing in 200, it uses a formula cell A10*2 to get to calculate a value to submit. When I click on Submit data with that formula there, it will not submit the data. I know the intersection points are valid because if I sumbit a hard coded value it is submitted successfully.
I do have the "Preserve Formula and Comments on Adhoc Operation (Except pivot) checked. If I uncheck this and click submit. it brings back the data from the cube and my formulas are gone. So I cannot remove the check for the "Preserve formula"
is there any way to submit data based on calculated value?
we will be submitting data to both Essbase and HFM cube.
The SV version we are using is 11.1.2.1.103 (Build 100)
Thanks!

The issue is fixed in SV 11.1.2.2. Please refer - Smart View Submit Data Fails If "Preserve Formulas" Option Checked. (Doc ID 1475272.1)

Iomega external hard drive either 'not found' by Time Machine or is now in 'read only' format

I don't know what's going on with my iomega external hard drive. Sometimes the HD is recognised by the computer; other times it isn't; if it isn't I can restore to an earlier back up via Time Machine app; but it's like the disk isn't writable.
Ten days ago, I had trouble backing up my iMac using Time Machine. After turning it off and restarting my external hard drive, it backed up successfully.
However, today I am trying to back up my files, and TM tells me it can't find the external hard drive. Nothing has changed -- I have been out of town this past week -- but somehow my HD now seems to be in 'read only' format. It does turn on, and I could restore my computer to an earlier back up.
"Mac OS X can't repair the disk. You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can't save changes to files on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can."
Annoyingly, despite my HD not showing in Finder or on my Desktop (as it usually does), when I simply turn it off I get that warning message "The disk was not ejected properly".
Have tried verifying and repairing using Disk Utility, to no avail.
Am prompted to reformat but I don't have a good understanding of what this means and how to do it. I'm guessing this would wipe the disk clean and I'd have to create the initial back up image all over again -- I'm reluctant to do this since this HD is my only back up and if it all goes tits up I'll be up that famous creek without a paddle.
Thoughts, suggestions, input all welcome and deeply appreciated -- thank you!

It's possible a heavy-duty 3rd-party disk repair app can fix it, but they're expensive (DiskWarrior is about $100), and there's no guarantee it can do it.
Am prompted to reformat but I don't have a good understanding of what this means and how to do it.
That will erase it. See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #5.
It sounds very much like the disk is beginning to fail, although it's possible there's a bad port, cable, connection or power supply (if it has its own).
I'd suggest getting a new one, and using it for your Time Machine backups; once you have a good backup there, reformat the old one (and select Security Options to write zeros to the whole drive -- if that fails, you know the drive is toast). Use it for secondary backups, per FAQ #27. If it has failed, get a second new one for secondary backups.
