SPRUNVALIDATION without Flow/AccountDetail Dimension

Hi,
Does the Validation Business Rule work in an Application that does not have a Flow Dimension?
The log table does not indicate # record calculated, # records updated. Instead I get a vague message "SPRUNValid Version 5.0.508."
thanks
Agnes

i thought it should. If you are experiencing trouble with it, log it to SAP Support

Create an mp4 from mov without changing the dimensions

I am working on a project in InDesign that needs to output to DPS.
I take screen capture movies which are saved in the default mov format. These movies are 700 px x 400 px. That can't change.
I need to convert the mov to an mp4 to add to ID for DPS.
I open Adobe Media Encoder but I am confused as to how to set the output controls.
I don't want to change the dimensions.
What setting will convert the mov to mp4 without changing the dimensions?

Does this help?

Connect a Date Dimension to a cube without relationship

Hi everybody,
I would like to answers to one business requirements.
I create a cube that models the following event : a customer send a product from an agency to another customer who receives it in another agency.
So I have a fact table with only two measures
Amount
Count
which is connected to these dimensions
Product
Sending Date
Receiving Date
Sender (Customer)
Receiver (Customer)
Sender (Agency)
Receiver (Agency)
The users would like to analyse the following KPI, at a specific date :
Number of transactions sent, the amount
Number of transactions received, the amount
Number of transactions pending, the amount
To answer this business requirement, I have added a new date dimension in the cube with no relation, so that the user can select a date from this independent dimension and get the different KPIs.
But I don't get any results.
Is it a good model ? How to make it possible for the user to use the independent Date Dimension to perform analyzes of different KPI ?

Is it a good model ? How to make it possible for the user to use the independent Date Dimension to perform analyzes of different KPI ?
Hi Meal,
According to your description, you want to know if is it possible for the user to use the independent Date Dimension to perform analyzes of different KPI, right?
As per my understanding, we cannot do this without relationship between dimension tables and the independent Date table. However, we can add the relationship between the added date table and the fact table Sending Date and Receiving Date column. Please refer
to the link below to see the details.

Fact table without dimension table

is it possible to build a fact table without any joining dimension table?
I found that in this case an error is issued.
thanks !!

Yes, you can but you must create a fake join with another table.
OBIEE ask always in the Business Model Layer minimum a fact table and a dimension.
In the presentation layer, you drag only the fact table column and it will work.

Create an mp4 file from mov without changing dimensions

I take screen capture movies which are saved in the default mov format. These movies are 700 px x 400 px. That can't change.

MPEG4 is one of the formats that has relationships among various settings called constraints. More specifically, frame dimensions and frame rate are constrained by Profile and Level. Here are the steps to set the dimensions as desired:
Open the Export Settings dialog for a job
Set Format to MPEG4
Click the Video tab
Set Profile to Advanced Simple
Set Level to Level 5
To the right of Frame Width and Frame Height, click the chain link icon to decouple width and height
Set Width to 700
Set Height to 400
(optional) Change any other settings such as Frame Rate and Bitrate as desired.
(optional, but highly recommended for future convenience) click the Save Preset button to the right of the Preset control in the upper right corner [in CS5.5 and before, the button icon is a floppy disc; in CS6, it's an arrow pointing down toward a rectangle, which I presume represents a disc drive.] Enter a name for the custom preset in the dialog that pops up, then click OK.
Back in the Export Settings dialog, click OK (if you opened this dialog from AME) or Queue (if you started from PPRO).
The preset that you saved in Step 10 will be shown in the list of presets for MPEG4, so you can use it for future encoding jobs. If you have AME CS6, custom presets are also displayed in the section at the top of the new Preset Browser.

Flow / Subtable / Movement Dimension

Hi experts,
Can we use flow type dimension for planning application?
We are using BPC only for planning purpose. In case of Depreciation budget we need to maintain the accounts movement.
Opening Stock             100
Additions                 20
Deletions                 10
Closing Balance           110
Average Balance           105
Depreciation rate         12%
Total Depreciation        12.60
The combination of account dimension and Flow dimension gives me proper value, But When I remove the flow dimension, system adds up (1002010+110 etc)all the flow dimensions figures and gives me wrong value for account dimension member..
Can any one has come across this kind of situation.
thanks

Hi,
Lets say for example.
In Flow Dimension I have 5 members.
1. Opening Balance
2. Additions
3. Deletions
4. Closing Balance
5. Average Balance
All these are base members of "Total Flow" .
Now when I am creating reports If I select Total Flow in the current view Its gives me aggregated value (opningadddel+..etc.)
which is not fair value.
If I select Closing Balance in the Current View in reports that also not a fair value because in some input schedules I need to take average value.
Is anyone have good practice for using the flow dimension in planning application.
thanks

Formula in a dimension

I have several accounts in the account dimension. I want to insert a formula in a few.
For example:
6220000 = 6210000 + 6200000
The three are dimension's members
Can i use the formula column in the maintain dimensions?
How can i do easy formulas?
Can i mix members from different levels of hierarchies?
Thanx in advance and sorry for so many questions?

Ola Jose
Yes you can use the formula column in the account dimension, even if it is not advised!!
It is not advised because it is slower than running Business Rules or logic for example... it depends if you need to make long and many calculations...
If it is only one or 2 you could do it using the Formula column
If you wanna use the Formula column then you will write MDX formulas...
here is an example of the syntax :
'([A30210],[NO_F])([A30220],[NO_F])
(i am using NO_F has a flow in this example but you can do it without flows...
or formulas like
'+Iif([A36021]<0,0,[A36021])
Otherwise I would STRONGLY advise you to use the Business Rules.
So open a business rules Account transformation and put
group    |   source account |   source flow |   dest acct   |     dest flow
Test     |      6210000         |                      |    6220000   |
Test     |      6220000         |                      |    6220000   |
and leave the other stuffs blanks...
Create a logic and add this line :
*RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE=SPRUNCALCACCOUNT([%APP%], [%Category_Set%], [LC], [%SCOPETABLE%], [%LOGTABLE%],[Test])
*Commit
Save and Validate the logic...
Test it
Business Rules are probably easier to use in your case... no?
Concerning the last question, I would advise not to mix members from different level of hierearchies because using basmembers should be faster. Parents are calculated in the cube so please stick to parents if you can...
Make a test in running parents and basemembers to see if in your case there is a big differences, but please try to stick to basmembers ...
I hope I have answered your question
Do not hesitate to ask ...

How to make the text flow in a table from on page to the next?

hello,
i wanted to know if its possible on pages to make a table so the text will flow from one page to the next?
(for example, i write a content in the column on a specific raw, and if still have text when i reach the margins of the page, it automatically continues the text on the SAME raw on the next page)
i couldn't imagine i would ask this, since this seems to be a default on Word, but i hope i explained it right, but just in case, ill add a picture to illustrate (notice that in raw 10 there is still text, its just continues and disappears, without flowing to the next page. on the next page it is just a new raw 11, and i wonder if its possible to make the remainder of the text from raw 10 flow to the next page)
*and I'm new in mac, so please be as specific as possible
thank you

thank you Jerry,
i did not understand where is that option you mentioned, because it seems that is exactly what i need!
ill will add some snapshot to show you my "Format" and "Arrange" properties, because i couldn't find it
*the only place i could find what you saying is on the right side of the screen, there is the "arrange" tab, but there "move with text" and "inline with text" were selected from the beginning

Join fact table with higher dimension level

how do i join fact tables with higher dimension levels with discoverer?
fact with detail at level C
measure X
dimension with
D->C->B->A
E->C
level
A B C
1------1------1
2------2------1
3------2------1
join between fact X and dimension level C
X=3*C because of sum(X) in discoverer and 3xC in dimension
is there a way to get correct values for X without creating a dimension like
D->C
E->

another way of asking this is whether you can create a summary table in Discoverer at a higher level than a dimension's fundamental grain. In other words - the summary examples in the documentation all describe leaving out one or more of your dimensions... they are either left in or completely taken out. But, some of the most effective summarization occurs when you summarize daily data to a monthly level. Assuming that I have a sales table (at a daily level, and a key value sales_date), and a table date_dim (primary key sales_date), I would like to create a summary sales_month_summary where the sales are grouped on month_year (which is a field in the sales_date table).
How is this done? I suspect that we can't use the date_dim table with the summary (due to the problems noted by the poster above). Do we have to create another table "month_dim"? Do we have to fold all of the desired date attributes (month, quarter, year) into the summary? Obviously we'd like to re-use all of the pertinent already existing date items (quarter, month, year, etc.), not recreate them over again, which would result in essentially two sets of items in the EUL. [One used for this month summary, and another used for the detail.]
I searched the forum - someone asked this same question back in 2000 - there was no answer provided.
The only other thought I have is to "snowflake" the date_dim into two tables and two folders, one at a date level, another at the month level. Then the detail tables can connect to date_dim (which is linked to month_dim), while the summary data can connect directly to month_dim.

Include a page dimension in specific rows

In the former Hyperion Enterprise Reporting tool, it was possible to specify another dimension member by stating Sales of Product xxx without having the dimension in the row layout. I cant find anything similar in the manual for Hyperion Reports. Is the only way to accomplish the same, to add the product dimension in the row layout and hide the column?

You look into using iframes.
Just search on the forum for them

Best way to connect two fact tables when no conformed dimension exists

Can anyone please elaborate how would I connect two fact table without any conformed dimension. Let say FACTA, FACTB. FACTB is related to a dimension "StatusDim". I want to select the count of all FACTA item which are related to FACTB items with
a particular status. I have found the following article but just wondering whether it is the best practise to connect two fact tables directly.
http://bifuture.blogspot.com/2011/11/ssas-selecting-facts-with-reference.html
Thank you

Hi Ahsan,
After read the blog you posted, I think it's a pretty good solution to create a view in the relational database or a named query in the Data Source View containing as the the columns in FACTA and FACTB. Then build a dimension from it, setting the "Null processing"
property (you have to click the "plus" two times for the "Key Columns" property of the attribute in BIDS to access this property) to "UnknownMember". And then use this dimension for the many-to-many relationship. Dimensions from FactA can benefit of the reference
relationship between FactA and FactB and therefore a powerful solution it is.

BPC10 NW: Same dimension Multiple times

Hi Experts!!!
Is it imposible to have a dimension more than ones in the same model. The problem is that i have a dimension called Person and in person i have employees and bosses. A person can be a boss and be at the same time an employee. how can i register in the same transaction the name of the employee and the name of the boss without dividing the dimension taking to account than employee can have more than one boss and a boss can have morethan one employee??.
Regards,

Hi,
You cannot have a dimension in the model more than once.
We have had something similar for a BPC 10 project I have recently been working on. You could have two dimensons do that you have a 'Manager' dimension, and an 'Employee' dimension. This will allow your one-to-many options.
Another options is that you could use hierarchies to configure it, maybe doing to data imports, one prefixing all employees with 'MGR_' for manage parent ID's. You'd do this in your transformation file using;
ID=*STR(MGR_)+ID
Or manually maintain your hierarchies and do it manually to set these up.
Hope this helps,
Nick

Print to Art,Trim or Bleed Box without changing Crop Box

I understand that Acrobat is aware of the Art, Trim & Bleed boxes set from other applications (Indesign, Illustrator) when exporting to PDF. Is there a way to print only the content within one of these boxes without adjusting the dimensions of the document's Crop Box via Acrobat's "Set Pages Boxes" or "Crop Pages" dialog?
Thank you and have a great day,
Brandon Boswell

This method works, but unfortuantley you cannot save recolor artwork settings(atleast in CS5), to resue this method to save time. Posting this incase this helps.
Create cmyk global colors of slected artowrk by using swathces palette >> add selected colors
Manually create a tint swatch for you destination colors (32130 tints), by using color palette, slide tint over, then add new swatch for each one.
Edit >> Edit Colors >> Recolor Artwork >> Click on the smaller swatches on right to set a destination color for each
see belwo this worked

View dimension mysteriously filled with YTD in Essbase adapter

Hi,
I don't understand how my view column is automatically filled with the value YTD during my FDM import.
I have a source file without a view dimension, i have no view dimension in my import format i have 'YTD_Inp' as the no-data value in the dimension specification.
But still the view in the export is filled with YTD.
When i change my datavalue dimension to View and set YTD_INP as the no data value it works fine.
Has anybody an idea where the YTD comes from and how i can change it to YTD_Inp?
Thanks in advance,
Marc

This is what we do for our HFM adapter to get the View dimension to display Periodic rather than YTD.
Enable the View dimension in workbench for the adapter (sounds like you did this, we figure this would be enough but it didn't work for us either)
In your import group, add another import format line; add one for View. I generally say take field 1 of 1 as I am doing CSV. Under the script column just enter the value "YTD_Inp".
View | 1 | 1 | YTD_Inp
This should write YTD_Inp as the View to every record that is imported/validated/exported.
Hope this works!

Why not displayed new member in dimension sap bpc?

Good day guys
I have the following problem:
Add new members to a dimension but not displayed.
example: DIMENSION(inputcurrency) added MEMBER: MXN (Mexican Pesos); when I excel interface I can not see the new member, before this process the dimension and active AppSet.
that could be?
Use SAP BPC 7.5 SP8

Hi Bish,
Without processing a dimension the data should no go to the database. If you modify the the dimension and you want those new members in report you have to process that dimension. And if you save that dimension after modification its save the members in application sever. while retrieving the data it pick up from the database layer not from application layer, So the on fly calculation are stored in application layer( Like conversion files, Transformation files, script logics and Member formulas). So if you want the new members in report you have to process. Its by SAP design it self.
After modification of dimension no need to logoff and login every time. In order to avoid that option we have a anothe solution that is Activate Metadata Cache option.
In order to use that go to EPM--> User OPtions---> Activate metadata Option
You can clear the metadata cache. When the cache is cleared, the structure of the data source you are connected to is synchronized with the structure copied locally; which means that the members of dimensions that have been added, modified or deleted in the data source are loaded.
For more details related to Metadata option go to the EPM 10 Office Addin User Guide document which is available in google free of cost
