Time Balance Last

I'm starting to work on our balance sheet.I know I need to use "TB Last" for all the balance sheet accounts, but where do I need to load the beginning balances ??? Do they need to be inside the hierarchy for the total year (that might mess me up, as I'm using the BegBalance for some other stuff).Ack.

Hi
I have pretty much similar kind of design. Let me explain in using the Demo Basic Outline
We have Sales as a Measure in the Accounts Dimension. The aggregation of this Measure is SUM over time.
I create a new measure called Sales (Sum on Time). Here i set the node as Dynamic Calc, Formula is "Sales"; and Time Balance as TB Last.
This is not working. At higher levels of Time (Quarter) the Formula value overrides the Time Balance. Is the natural way of functioning.
Please help. This is quite important for our design.

Planning - Time Balance Last Weirdness

Hi,
In my planning (Workforce) build I have some FTE accounts that are specified as "Time Balance Last" for aggregation purposes. I am wondering how this is supposed to work because it seems t be a little bit clumsy the way it is working in this build. My Period Dimension is Jul, Aug, Sep.....Mar, Apr, May, Jun & Adj, where Adj is a 13 month adjustment period, rarely used.
The problem is that I have FTE numbers for all 12 months populated, but not populated in "Adj", as there is no purpose in this case to do so. When I do a @IDESCENDANTS(Period), The #MISSING from the "Adj" period populates YearTotal time period. I actually need to populate the Jun FTE data into the Adj period in order for the aggregation to populate YearTotal.
Is this the design/functionality as it is supposed to work? What happens if I am budgeting only up to half way through the year and there is no data in the latter months? In this case an agreggation would not put anything in the YearTotal.
I would have thought that Time Balance Last would take the last "Populated" time period and put it in YearTotal, at least, thats what I would like it to do
Thoughts?
Regards
Mike

Hi Mike
Yes this is the functionality as it is designed, the TB Last option takes the last data value regardless of whether it is #Missing or Zero.
However, there is a SKIP field that allows you to tell Essbase to skip either or both of these values in order to find the last non-zero / non-missing value. So as you describe using TB Last with Skip Missing would mean that the value entered for June would show when YearTotal was retrieved.
Try it out and see if it does what you need but be aware that there are instances where TB Last accounts will genuinely go from a value to zero or missing.
Hope this helps

ASO Time balancing with multiple hierarchies

Hello,
I have an Essbase 9.3 ASO cube with multiple hierarchies in the period dimension (set as type = Time), and I'm trying to set one of my Measures to Time Balance Last with SkipMissing.
When I validate the outline, I get:
"This prototype must have all its shared members as siblings of previous sibling."
on all the leaf level members in my period dimension.
any ideas?

We are on Essbase 9.3.0.1 and also tried to use ASO Time balance functions in conjunction with multiple hierarchies enabled.
I recommend you not to use the ASO time balance functions. We did and had to revert everything after complaints from our user base.
If you still use it, please test cases where you retrieve TB Last as well as flow values together with ytd and periodic values.

Time Balance Members in ASO

Hi-I have read in the documentation that ASO doesn't support TimeBalance members at all.Is there a work around involved where in wecan include TB members.Please let me know your ideas or a way to implement TimeBalance.Thanks in advance. Narain

Try this: Case WHEN IsUDA([Measures].CurrentMember, "Time Balance Last") AND (IsGeneration([Months] , 3)) THEN Tail ( Filter ( PeriodsToDate ( [Months].Levels(1) ), Not IsEmpty ([Month Of]) )).Item(0).Item(0) where Month Of is not in the time dimension, its part of a Time Views dimension. The key to this formula are the Tail and Filter functions. Tail says to get the last and filter is what is checking for missing. Put them together and you get skip missing with TB Last. Credit goes to George Spoffard for this solution.

Time Balance is set to Last for EPMA Essbase application in Essbase Outline

Hello Gurus,
Following is my scenario -
I have an EPMA Essbase applications that I have deployed from Workspace.
I have observed that even though the Time Balance property for members for the accounts dimension are set to Balance (as seen in Dimension Library) in EPMA, after I deploy the application the dimensions are tagged as TB Last in Essbase outline (as seen in EAS).
I am not aware of the functional part much, would really appreciate someone's help on this issue.
Thanks.

Here is the doc that explains time balance settings in Essbase:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/dcatimse.html
Here is the doc that explains time balance settings in Planning:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin_11122/ch12s04s08s01.html
And here's a quick cross reference between Essbase and Planning:
ESSBASE / PLANNING
TB Last = Balance
TB None = Flow
TB First = First
TB Avg = Average
In general, Income Statement accounts are "Flow", and Balance Sheet accounts are "Balance" (unless you're storing activity, and not balances). Statistical accounts are a mixed bag.
Hope this helps,

Retrieve account members with time balance of "last"

Hi everyone,
I am trying to write a report scripts that will retrieve from the Accounts dimensions all members that have Time Balance of Account information of "Last". I haven't been able to get the correct syntax to do this retrieval. Is there an existing syntax what is similar to a UDA that I can use as a retireval criteria?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Tom

I dont think there is a such report script command to list out TB First/Last account members.
so you need to give some uda to the TB members and list out the accounts based on UDA in report scripts.

Time Balance and Account Type

According to docs, time balance are system-defined based on account type. However, I can set any time balance. And it not enfore time balance setting on app validation and deployment.
So, is any relationship between account type and time balance?

Check this forum, see if that helps..

Time Balance calculation

Hi Everybody,I have tagged some of the members of A/C dim. as TB First, TB Last, TB Avg. My Time Dim have hierarchy like 2003..Q1-2003..Jan2003, Feb2003, Mar2003..... When I see the member tagged as TB First, TB Last, TB Avg at the level of say Q1-2003, it shown plain consolidation instead of time balance logic. Is is due to the fact that my Time Dim is not of Dynamic Time Series? Can I achieve the Time Balance logic without applying the Dynamic Time series?Please help. Thanks in advance.

FWIW, we use Dynamic Time Series and Time Balance measures, and my otl is configured as follows: Measures(s) Time(d) OthDim(d) OthDim(s) OthDim(s) OthDim(s) Sorry that I don't see anything glaringly wrong with your setup, as Paul suggests, maybe you need to calc everything again...? BTW: Both our measures and time dims are entirley dynamic calc.

Time Balance Attributes

Hello I verified that time balance attribute allow control the memberconsolidation for differents time periods.I have a time and accountsdimension on outline. My Time dimension is dividedin Year and quarter without months.But What is the default period to TBFIRST, TBLAST andTBAVERAGE in this case??I guess that TBFIRST will be the first and secondquarter of the time dimension, TBLAST theremaining, after all, The TBAVERAGE will be using theconsolidation of the year 2006. Am I right?? Thanks advanced, Wallace

Wallace: TBFIRST, when reported upon against your Year member, will reference the value of the FIRST quarter, whereas TBLAST will use the value of the LAST quarter. TBAVERAGE will sum the four quarters and divide the result by four. Note that if any of your quarters contain #Missing values, they can be skipped by using the SKIP MISSING option. Fore more information, check the Database Administrator's Guide in the section entitled Calculating Time Series Data.

Time balance property

Hi,
there is an account member with the TB property balance. I know that this porpoerty wld mean that the last value would roll up to the parent in the period heirarachy , but what is happening is that if there is no data in the month of September than the value at Q2 is also coming missing and since there is no value on the Q4 the value at year total is also coming missing , is there any way to suppress the missing values that means if the data has come till the month of August and not september then the roll up at Q2 l would reflect the data for August only.
thanks in advance

Have a read of :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hp_admin/ch10s04s07s01.html
You will see the time balance properties that there are skip options can be applied such as None,Missing,Zeros,Missing and Zeros

Have you tried repairing disk permissions : iTunes download error -45054

Does iCloud save voicemail messages from my iphone 5 when I back up? More specifically I am trying to access messages that were in my deleted folder at the time I last saved, that have since been cleared.

Does iCloud save voicemail messages from my iphone 5 when I back up? More specifically, I am trying to access messages from my now deceased father that were in my deleted voicemail folder at the time I last saved, that have since been cleared.

The iCloud backup includes visual voicemail messages. I'm not sure if it includes the deleted ones or not, but I would assume it does.

Total time balances in HRFORMS

I designed a form to report total time balances overview
using TIM_SALDO in HRFORMS.
when evaluate NOT a complete time evaluation periods by specifying the data selection period on the selection screen.it gives total time balances of complete time evaluation periods!?
Time evaluation periods is 10.01 - 10.31 ,
I evaluate 10.01 to 10.15,
but the result of total time balances is for 10.01-10.31.
BUT form designed by PE50,using SALDO too.
when evaluate 10.01 to 10.15,it gives right result.
I know table Table SALDO stores all cumulated balances. The balances are added from table TES to SALDO in month-end processing.
BUT WHY PE50 form can evaluate partly period ,while HRFORMS can not.
How to design using HRFORMS to evaluate partly period or corss periods?
Must I write code by using table ZES to cumulate manully?

Here is your sum in minutes
WITH your_data AS
 (SELECT '4.30' emp_ot FROM DUAL
 UNION ALL SELECT '5.50' emp_ot FROM DUAL)
SELECT SUM(minutes) FROM (
SELECT REGEXP_REPLACE (emp_ot, '(\d{1,2})\.(\d{2})', '\1') * 60
 + REGEXP_REPLACE (emp_ot, '(\d{1,2})\.(\d{2})', '\2') minutes
FROM your_data)

SMS now receieved bu friend 45 times in last half ...

I sent 2 sms yesterday to a czech mobile phone number of a person attending a very large exhibition in a remote part of Germany called Friedrichshafen. They have now received the sms 45 times in last half hour and no doubt getting billed for it. I have checked my history and account and it only shows once as sent. HOw to get this message stopped.

It would appear that my router dropped lost its connection at around 5AM this morning according to these router stats, if this is happening on a regular basis could this be the cause of my problem. The router has now been untouched for 20hrs.

Time Balance and Time series in ASO

We are building an ASO application and we need Time balance and dynamic time series functionality.
If I go and use the TB functionality in ASO, my Time dimension has to be stored and I cannot put mdx formulas on my members (YTD,QTD,MTD)
I see various threads here and the recommendation is to have a new dimension to view the time series members (gary's blog...tnx for him)
However we cannot afford to have a separate dimension. The time series should be under Time.
How can we go with this?
Please help me with your suggestions/ideas. Thanks for your time.
TIA
- Sai

Any ideas guys?
John, can you please shed some light on this.
TIA
