Suggestions to create HFM Metadata using excel template

Hi, I’m new to HFM and in process of creating the Metadata for a sample hfm application for my learning purpose. I need some sample excel templates for HFM Metadata creation. I would appreciate your help on this. Thanks.

Hi Masoud,
Could you please share those excel files with me at [email protected] which might help me in creating HFM app? Can you also send me the process, info and tools used on Enterprise to HFM9.3.1 migration ?
Appreciate your helps in this regard.

  • Is it possible to display a date as (DD-MON-YYYY) in excel output using excel template in xml publisher

    Is it possible to display a date as (DD-MON-YYYY) in excel output using excel template in xml publisher where date should be displayed as date only not string.

    I've tried to use hierarchy node variables, but it seems like you can't specify a attribute of the hierarchy such as level.  So with the WBS hierarchy, if you create a hierarchy node variable, you specify the WBS value to select (If I understand this correctly).  I wish I could instead specify "give me all the WBS nodes that happen to have the value of the level attribute greater or equal to 3.  If I understand Juergens post, he is saying make security access so that only certain WBS levels can be returned in the query.  I suppose we can try that, but that would then preclude getting the level 1 and 2 in the future if the authorization is global.

  • Translating a report which is using excel template

    Hello,
    We are working on a BI report using excel template. I've checked the report designer's user guide and it says template translation is a feature only supporting RTF and BI publisher layout template.
    I am wondering what is the best practice for translating a report which is using excel template.
    So far I have a alternative which is making all labels in my template dynamically getting values from HCM lookups , but this solution is time consuming.
    Could anybody help here?

    Hi
    Somebody know how to create CWM2 Metadata using OWB 10.1.0.4 ?
    Best Regards

    The process should be the same - however there are specific things you'll need to do if you are trying to deploy from JDev 10.1.3 to OAS 10.1.2.

    Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it.
    Yes you are correct. Dimensions are different in HFM and Planning. I understand why we need different targets but my concern now is since Option B is correct and lets say I am extracting Net Income (Under Account Dimension) rollup from EBS into Shared Library. Will it automatically update Net Income in HFM and Planning both? (Note:-Net Income Rollup exists in both HFM and Planning) or I will have to manually drag and drop Net Income from shared library to HFM and Planning application?.
    In other words does it update the Shared Library and applications at the same time?
    Thanks again.

  • How to group data and assign cell names using Excel templates

    Hi all,
    reading the article "Real Excel Templates 1.5" on the Tim Dexter's Blog, I found that I need hierarchical data for Excel templates. So only in this way I can group my data.
    My hierarchy is composed by 3 levels:
    lev 1 DESTINATION: is the higher level that groups SERVICES and COUNTRY
    lev 2 SERVICES: is the level that groups the countries
    lev 3 COUNTRY: is the lowest level with the COUNTRY, CALLS and CALLS_MINUTES details
    An example of my hierarchy is this:
    lev 1 INTERNATIONAL
    lev 2 INTERNATIONAL FIXED
    lev 3 Albania 90 438,15
    lev 3 Armenia 1 16,95
    lev 2 INTERNATIONAL MOBILE
    lev 3 Albania Mobile 161 603,35
    lev 3 Australia Mobile 6 34,38
    lev 1 NATIONAL
    lev 2 HELLAS LOCAL
    lev 3 Hellas Local 186,369 707940,6
    lev 2 HELLAS MOBILE
    lev 3 Hellas Mobile Cosmote 31,33 43856,97
    lev 3 Hellas Mobile Q-Telecom 2,398 4343,78
    lev 2 HELLAS NATIONAL
    lev 3 Hellas Long Distance 649 1499,55
    lev 1 INTERNET
    lev 2 INTERNET CALLS
    lev 3 Cosmoline @Free 79 2871,3
    So, my data template is the following (with exactly the hierarchy I want for my data):
    <dataTemplate name="emp" description="destinations" dataSourceRef="GINO_DB">
         <dataQuery>
              <sqlStatement name="Q1">
                   <![CDATA[SELECT 1 TOTAL_CALLS, 2 TOTAL_CALLS_MIN from dual ]]>
              </sqlStatement>
              <sqlStatement name="Q2">
                   <![CDATA[SELECT dest.ID_DESTINATION, dest.DESC_DEST from ale.AAA_DESTINATION dest order by dest.ID_DESTINATION ]]>
              </sqlStatement>
              <sqlStatement name="Q3">
                   <![CDATA[SELECT ser.ID_SERVICE,
    ser.ID_DEST,
    ser.DESC_SERVICE,
    count.ID_COUNTRY,
    count.ID_SERV,
    count.COUNTRY,
    count.CALLS,
    count.CALLS_MIN
    from ale.AAA_SERVICE ser, ale.AAA_COUNTRY count
    where ser.ID_SERVICE= count.ID_SERV
    and ID_DEST = :ID_DESTINATION
    order by ser.ID_SERVICE ]]>
              </sqlStatement>
         </dataQuery>
         <dataStructure>
              <group name="G_TOT" source="Q1">
                   <element name="TOTAL_CALLS" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS" function="SUM()"/>
                   <element name="TOTAL_CALLS_MIN" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS_MIN" function="SUM()"/>
                   <group name="G_DEST" source="Q2">
                        <element name="DESC_DEST" value="DESC_DEST"/>
                        <element name="DEST_CALLS_SUBTOTAL" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS" function="SUM()"/>
                        <element name="DEST_CALLS_MIN_SUBTOTAL" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS_MIN" function="SUM()"/>
                        <group name="G_SERV" source="Q3">
                             <element name="DESC_SERVICE" value="DESC_SERVICE"/>
                             <element name="SERV_CALLS_SUBTOTAL" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS" function="SUM()"/>
                             <element name="SERV_CALLS_MIN_SUBTOTAL" value="G_COUNTRY.CALLS_MIN" function="SUM()"/>
                             <group name="G_COUNTRY" source="Q3">
                                  <element name="COUNTRY" value="COUNTRY"/>
                                  <element name="CALLS" value="CALLS"/>
                                  <element name="CALLS_MIN" value="CALLS_MIN"/>
                             </group>
                        </group>
                   </group>
              </group>
         </dataStructure>
    </dataTemplate>
    Not considering the CALLS and CALLS_MIN details (I focused only on the COUNTRY which is as the same level), with this data template, making tests on my excel template, I noticed that I can group ONLY two nested levels using the format XDO_GROUP_?group_name?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_DEST?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_SERV?
    or
    XDO_GROUP_?G_DEST?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY?
    or
    XDO_GROUP_?G_SERV?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY
    If I try to group all the three level together in this order
    XDO_GROUP_?G_DEST?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_SERV?
    XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY
    I don't have the output I would like to have.....
    Practically, in my excel I have 3 rows with the following labels
    DESTINATION (called XDO_?DESC_DEST? - =Sheet1!$A$3
    SERVICE (called XDO_?DESC_SERVICE? - =Sheet1!$A$4
    COUNTRY (called XDO_?COUNTRY? - =Sheet1!$A$5)
    where
    XDO_GROUP_?G_DEST? (=Sheet1!$A$3:$B$5)
    XDO_GROUP_?G_SERV? (=Sheet1!$A$4:$B$5)
    XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY     (=Sheet1!$A$5:$B$5)
    I noticed that if I don't use the last one (XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY), my output is correct even if I don't have more than one country for each service....As soon as I put XDO_GROUP_?G_COUNTRY....I loose all the 2nd level and the most of times the 3rd level too....
    So...I think that the problem is how I choose the excel cells when I assign the XDO_GROUP_?group_name?
    Anybody had made some tests, or can help me ???? I'm becoming crazy.....
    Any help will be appreciated
    Thanks in advance
    Alex

    But how can I use tags XDO_GROUP_?? to group data correctly using hierarchial xml, I don't want to use flat XML.
    Yep, I using Template Builder in Excel to run reports localy, and output is wrong
    It's seems that groups couldn't define the level of nesting, I think...
    How can I write it in XDO_METADATA sheet?
    Though I have hierarchial XML and groups should define nesting level correctly.
    I have no clue.....

  • Cannot create PDF files using Excel

    I'm using Acrobat PDFMaker 5.0 for Excel to convert my invoices into PDF files to send to clients but for some unknown reason it has just suddenly stopped working. It starts the conversion process OK but then freezes and just hangs. I can continue using my PC but the CPU usage shows as 100%. I end up either having to cancel the conversion or close the programme completely using task manager.
    I'm afraid I'm not very computer savvy, but I really need to find a solution to this problem asap.
    Please can anybody help me?
    Thanks.

    Make sure you've updated your Acrobat 5 to 5.0.5: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=1309
    You may also want to confirm whether or not this is document specific.  Does a new Excel file with just a few letters typed into cell A1 convert fine?  If so, you may want to uncheck the 'Enable text and reflow in tagged PDF' option within the PDFMaker preferences.  I may have skewed that verbiage slightly as I haven't looked at Acrobat 5 in a VERY long time, but I recall that option sometimes causing Word and Excel conversions to hang.

    With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
    Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want.  But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
    If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.  This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud.  Then enter the account ID that you want to use.

    Thanks for the reply, i have already checked the link but it doesn't have syntax to use Trunc,substr etc. functions.
    Also date in example is - "1996-02-03T00:00:00.000-07:00" , but in my case date format is different "2012/01/01 00:00:00".
