Time Dimension Roll-Up Not Working

Hi Gurus,
We are on BPC NW 7.0 SP04. We are experiencing a strange problem with Time dimension. Even after defining the hierarchy correctly, the values are not being rolled up the hierarchy. Our requirement is to capture data at quarter level and year level. So we have defined the time dimension in following manner:
ID                     EVDESCRIPTION   PARENTH1     LEVEL         YEAR   PERIOD STYLE   MONTHNUM    TYPE   TIMEID           HLEVEL
2007.TOTAL     2007 TOTAL                               YEAR             2007     TOTAL   T3                12                       ACT   20070005        1
2007             2007                   2007.TOTAL   QUARTER     2007     Q1        T2                13                       ACT                        2
2007.Q1             2007 Q1                   2007.TOTAL   QUARTER     2007     Q1        T1                  3                       ACT   20070001        2
2007.Q2             2007 Q2                   2007.TOTAL   QUARTER     2007     Q2        T1                  6                       ACT   20070002        2
2007.Q3             2007 Q3                   2007.TOTAL   QUARTER     2007     Q3        T1                  9                       ACT   20070003        2
2007.Q4             2007 Q4                   2007.TOTAL   QUARTER     2007     Q4        T1                12                       ACT   20070004        2
Here TYPE is a custom dimension property . As the members depict, 2007.TOTAL value should be calculated as the sum of 2007.Q1, 2007.Q2, 2007.Q3 and 2007.Q4 (Quarters and Years are mutually exclusive in our case). But when we maintain data for Q1,Q2,Q3 and Q4, the TOTAL value is displayed as the value of Q4, and not the sum of quarters. We have tried changing MEASURES from PERIODIC to QTD and YTD, with no effect. We thought that it could be a problem with BI, and so built a simple BeX Query on top of the BPC application cube. But in the BEX query, the time dimension is properly aggregated, nd values are displayed correctly. So apparently it is not a problem with BI. In that case, we are missing something in BPC itself. Can any of you identify what it could be? Awaiting answers and Thanking in Advance.
Sincere Regards,
Amitabha

Amitabha,
It's just a problem that a lot of people run into when they are getting used to BPC. Once you see it happen to 10 or 15 people, you can start to recognize it pretty quickly
There are not a lot of examples of this in the Netweaver documentation. I think there are more in the Microsoft docs. However, there is mention of it on this page in the Netweaver documentation: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75_nw/helpdata/en/65/84d6596224477d80cc8a4392e4c114/frameset.htm]

Dimension security is not working if user have two roles in SSAS while connecting from Excel

Hello Genius,
I am facing the issue when user trying to connect the cube from excel if user have more than one role in ssas db.
Role 1: Countryuser, I have implemented the dimension security with country
dimension and countrycode attribute.
Role 2: CityUser, I have implemented the dimension security with
city dimension and citycode attribute.
If user is mapped to any one of above role dimension security is working perfectly according to the logic but mapped to both role, cube is exposing all the data in this case dimension security is not working.
Please give me the solution to fix this issue or incase I am wrong kindly advice.
Thanks
Ganesh

This is the expected behaviour as allowed sets in roles are unioned together.
This is not a problem when your roles are restricting across a single attribute.
eg.
US_role = {[Geography].[Country].[USA]
France_role = {[Geography].[Country].[France] }
as someone in both roles ends up seeing {[Geography].[Country].[USA], [Geography].[Country].[France] }
But when you have different attributes:
NY_role = {[Geography].[City].[New York] }
France_role = {[Geography].[Country].[France] }
The first role is unrestricted on countries and the second is unrestriced on cities which is effectively:
NY_role = {[Geography].[Country].AllMembers , [Geography].[City].[New York] }
France_role = {[Geography].[Country].[France], [Geography].[City].AllMembers }
And when you union those two sets together you end up with:
{[Geography].[Country].AllMembers , [Geography].[City].AllMembers }
Which means that someone in both roles can see everything.
So if you want to restrict someone to City = New York and Country = France you have to create a
single role where both attributes are restricted. So if you have a lot of these combinations you will either have to create a lot of "combination" roles or look at dynamic security.
The other thing that might work is make sure that you only give some users access to certain cities and others access to certain countries. It's the mixing of the two for a single person that causes the issues.

Time Machine options are not working. I am unable to schedule automatic backups.

Time Machine options are not working. I am unable to schedule automatic backups. The On-Off button is grayed out. I can perform a backup manually.

Thanks for responding. I have an external disk with plenty of room. It is used only for backup of my computer. I get a backup by clicking on the Time Machine icon at the top of the page and select "Back Up Now." When I click on Time Machine Preferences, there is a box labeled "Options" which allows me to exclude items from backup and notify after old backups are deleted. There is no option to schedule a backup. The "OFF/ON" box is gray. For "Next Backup:" it says "Automatic backups off." I would like to turn it on.

Time capsule now does not work with Lion just installed.

Just downloaded Lion to Mac Air. Time capsule now does not work. Where is the problem?

Restart the TC.. lion is stupid.. it forgets what it is connected to with alarming frequency ... like someone suffering dementia.
If it continues to have issues, plug the TC directly to the lion computer by ethernet (if not already) and try again. Change the wireless to manual in airport utility and change the wireless name.. to force a new configuration. Once setup you can just use wireless.
In the end you may need to reset the TC.. just hold in the reset button for about 10sec. It should then become available.. a reset does not do anything to data on the hard drive but you might need to restore any passwords.

Time series functions are not working for fragmented logical table sources?

If i remove that fragmented logical table sources, then its working fine.
if any body know the reason, please let me know.
thanks and regards,
krishna

Hi,
is because the time series function are not supported for the framentation content, see the content of the oracle support:
The error occurs due to the fact the fragmented data sources are used on some Time series measures. Time series measures (i.e. AGO) are not supported on fragmented data sources.
Confirmation is documented in the following guide - Creating and Administering the Business Model and Mapping Layer in an Oracle BI Repository > Process of Creating and Administering Dimensions
Ago or ToDate functionality is not supported on fragmented logical table sources. For more information, refer to “About Time Series Conversion Functions” on page 197.

BPC Time Dimension - 13 periods NOT Calendar

My client reports 13 periods in a year (4 weekly).
Quarter two contains 4 periods (periods 4, 5, 6, 7).
I was reading a post about how to set this up properly using the UserTimeId property. They had a situation where they needed to put their 13th period in Qtr 4, and they discussed using this property, but the answer didn't go into exactly what settings to put in the UserTimeid property.
Could someone explain how to set this up in BPC so that it calculates properly - my system is a YearToDate system (not periodic),
regards
scott Farrington

Hi Scott,
Have you tried just putting these 4 periods in Quarter 2 on your time dimension hierarchy? I believe the hierarchy (not the properties) is what drives QTD reporting, so theoretically that should work. I have not tried your specific scenario however as it is a fairly uncommon setup.
If that doesn't work and you can explain exactly what kind of issues you are seeing, then it might be easier for others to come up with helpful solutions.
Thanks,
Ethan

I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?

Question:-
I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time or other portal and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?
Answer:-
For a Name to work in iChat it has to be an Valid AIM screen Name.
Only Apple IDs from the @mac.com ending names registered here and the Mobileme (@Me.com ending) names are Valid with the AIM service as well as being Apple IDs
(I am still working on info about registering with iCloud at the moment but if this does give you an @Me.com email it may well be a valid AIM name as well)
NOTES:-
The @mac.com page works by linking an external (Non Apple) email with a @mac.com name.
This External Email cannot be one linked to an Existing Apple ID (you have to use a second email or register at AIM )
The options at AIM are to use your existing email or create new name and link the existing only for Password recovery
MobileMe (@me.com ending names) were valid Emails addresses, Apple IDs AND a Valid AIM Screen Name
@mac.com names look like emails but are only Apple IDs and iChat/AIM Valid Screen Names.
The AIM registration page seems to be pushing you to register [email protected] This is relatively new and I have not followed through the pages to find out if it a valid AIM email (Previously you could register a name without an @whatever.com suffix)

Question:-
So I have my current [email protected] email in iChat as I thought as I had linked that to an Apple ID it was a Valid iChat Name. It keeps coming up with a UserName or Password Invalid message. What do I do next ?
Answer:-
Open iChat
Go to the Menu under the iChat name in the Menu Bar and then Preferences and then Accounts in the new window.
Commonly written as iChat > Preferences > Accounts as directions/actions to take.
If it displays with a Yellow running name in the list you have a choice.
Either register it at AIM (I would use a different password to the ISP Login) and then change the password only in iChat (It may take you to confirm any Confirmation email from AIM first) in iChat > Preferences > Accounts
Or you register a new Name at AIM (Or at @mac.com) and enter that (details below)
If you have a Blue Globe name (@mac.com) that will not Login the chances are that it the password that is the issue.
Apple lets you create longer passwords than can be used with the AIM Servers.
Change the Password at iForgot to no more than 16 characters.
Then change the password in iChat as details above.
Adding a new Account/Screen Name in iChat (that is valid with the AIM servers)
Open iChat if not launched.
Go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
Click the Add ( + ) Button at the bottom of the list.
Choose in the top item drop down either @Mac.com or AIM depending on what you registered
Add the name (with @mac.com the software will add the @mac.com bit)
Add in the password. (If you don't add it now iChat will ask you each time you open it)
Click Done.
The Buddy List should open (New Window)
The Accounts part of the Preferences should now have the new name and you should be looking at the details.
You can add something in the Description line which will then title the Buddy List (Useful when you have two or more names) and make it show up as that in the iChat Menu > Accounts and the Window Menu of iChat when logged in.
You can then highlight any other Account/Screen Name you don't want to use and use the Minus ( - ) Button to delete it.
