Top 10 Report Hyperion Reports

I couldn't find anything in the user's guide that walked me through creating a top 10 report in Hyperion reports. Are there multiple steps involved? If so, can you explain what they are? I'm hoping to create reports that will comprise not only top 10, but top 15, top 30, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately you are going to find this difficult. I was very disappointed in Hyperion's lack of functionality in Hyperion Reports when trying to do stuff like this. It's not a great report tool. You can do as Jared mentioned by using the Rank and suppress. the problem you start to run into is when you want to have sub totals. Chances are if you have a top 10, you want a line at the bottom that shows the sum of those ten. This starts to become difficult since you cannot control the order of operations in Hyperion Reports. You wind up having the sum performed prior to the suppression which gives you a useless result that sums all rows, not just the top 10. There are some work-arounds but they complicate the design and wind up limiting the report in other ways.

  • Top/Bottom reports in Hyperion Reports?

    Hi,<BR><BR>I'm trying to produce a top 100 customers report using Hyperion Reports. Is there a way to do this? I found the RANK function, but that just returns a value--it doesn't filter based on data values.<BR><BR>The only way I can find to do it is to add a formula column with the RANK function, then suppress any rows where that column's value is greater than 100.

    Gary,<BR><BR>Thanks for the quick reply. But is it just me, or does it seem somewhat lame that there's not a built-in functionality for top/bottom reports? Or could it be that that functionality falls more into the Analysis category than the basic reporting category, and that's why Analyzer has it and HR doesn't?<BR><BR>Jared

  • Hyperion Reports on top of IOP?

    Can Hyperion Reports provide reports from an IOP repository?
    Thank you.

    IOP supports MDX queries and there are "snapshot" commands that take MDX query as an argument and stores the results in a relational table. The MDX query can be used to serve any slice of cubular data and for any scenario. Once the data is in relational form, you can then use any reporting tool.
    IOP also has an integration with OBIEE and that can be used for reporting against IOP data.

    Hi Ashok,
    BW data could be reported from Hyperion by connecting the system with the right adapter,
    the other way around isn't possible (querying hyperion data via BW) except by setting the hyperion DB as a DB/UD Connect source system and having remote IProviders on-top of it.
    If you need then you can  synchronize BW metadata in Hyperion then,
    create a report in Hyperion which will retrieve data from a BW query released for OLE/DB for OLAP (query properties/extended).
    now you can access any BW query / cube / multiprovider in BW system
    Hope it helps.....

  • Hyperion Reports Page Dimension Auto Calc

    <p>In Hyperion Reports 7.x, is there a way to create an autocalculation in the page dimension?  Similar to rows andcolumns, I would like to create a "grand total" memberwithin my page dimension that is a SUM of any dynamically selectedpagedimension (when prompted to select any multiple members). </p><p> </p><p>Please let me know if there is a way to perform this function. If there is a workaround, I would appreciate anyone's inputas well.</p><p> </p><p>Thanks for your help!</p><p> </p><p>Ron P.</p>

    1) Click on the top of the column and then go to the column properties pane on the right. Go to the Suppression section and you have a coulpe of choices. You can choose a Basic option and supress if the column Is Zero and/or Missing values. You can also choose advanced options and click the setup button. A new box will open and give you the ability to set criteria for suppressing the column. For instance if member name of product selected is "Product1" supress, otherwise show the column.2) There is no option, I am aware of, to do this. A non-elegant workaround would be to highlight the text on the HTML page, copy and paste it into Excel. The new version of Hyperion Reports 7.2 now supports exporting reports from HTML to Excel with Formating. I'm not sure whether or not that means headings will be exported as well.3) You have to use the grid POV to do this. Move your mouse to the top left corner of your grid, where the rows and columns meet. Right click and select "Grid Point of View Setup...". A new properties box will open up where you can restrict the POV to specific members.Hope this helps.Regards,Gary CrisciSenior ConsultantPinnacle Group Worldwide

  • Automating a Hyperion Report

    Hi,
    I'm trying to automate pulling a report out of essbase. The data export calcs create a level0 txt file which is hard to validate line by line against an an oracle report. I'm pretty much wanting to pull everything at the top level except the accounts dimension whiich needs to be at level 0 so I can compare the balance in Oracle to Hyperion. This needs to be an automated solution and I'll be using VBScript to run sql queries out of Oracle. Is it possible to pull a report at different levels within essbase in maxl or any other form? I'm really not familiar with Hyperion Reports. Is it possible to run a Hyperion Report via a script and have it produce a txt file?
    I really appreciate any information on this and hope someone can help.

    Hi,
    Have you considered using the Essbase Report Script? It's got some capability to format the exported file. However, running report script can be slower than calc scripts in which some tuning may be required.

  • Error while running batch in Hyperion Reports

    Has anybody run accross this error while trying to run a batch in Hyperion Reports:

    Have you ever successfully scheduled a batch? Make sure the scheduled batch name does not contain an ampersand "&" symbol or an apostrophe/single tick symbol. Those cause batches to error out for us.

  • Hyperion Reporting and Analysis - DAS, IR and Job Services Replication..

    Dear All,
    We are on Hyperion System 9.3.1 on Windows box and Repository in Oracle 10g Database. We have around 300 Interactive scheduled jobs.
    When these jobs are getting executed Hyperion Services are getting hang and In logs we are getting "Process out of memory..".
    In order to overcome "Process out of Memory.. Exiting" error. We need to replicate DAS, Interactive Reporting and Job Services on the same machine.
    I am doing Hyperion's IR, DAS, JOB Services Replication in Development environment. To achieve the same I performed the following tasks :
    # I have installed and configured Hyperion System 9.3.1 below components on MS Windows XP professional SP2 and Repository in Oracle 10g database.
    Hyperion Shared Services 9.3.1
    Hyperion Reporting and Analysis BI+ Services
    Hyperion Reporting and Analysis UI+ Services
    Every thing was configured fine.
    # To replicate the IR, DAS and Job Services. I started the Hyperion Reporting and Analysis BI+ Setup on the same machine then I select IR, DAS and Job Services.
    # Next I started Configuration Utility. Which ask me to configure Database. I selected the same database which I used for BI Services previously. Database Configuration was successful.
    # I changed the Port as below
         Core Services to 7801 instead of 6801
         Chaged the port for Job Service 7796 instead of 6796.
    # Next started Service Configurator where System was showing one more Job Service (JF2_<hostname>) in Remote Service Configurator. And in Local Service Configurator System was showing new BI and DAS. Then I configured Data Sources in DAS.
    # Started the Services.
    Next I started the Scheduled Jobs. It is taking same time as earlier. In logs it is showing that Only JF2_<hostname> Service is getting used. System is not using JF1_<HOSTNAME> anymore.
    I have few query regarding this.
    1) Why Configuration Utility didn't ask for GSM host and Port? Do I need to configure it manually?
    2) I have not chaged the port for DAS and IR Services. my concern is regarding port usage by new DAS and IR Services ? Do I need to configure it or It will be managed by system itself?
    Please show me the direction. Any help would be highly appreciable.
    Regards,
    Manmohan Sharma

    We have replicated the Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Services by changing the port number of Replicated Services to non-default port.
    Services are working fine.

  • Screen jumps back to top of the report when a tab is clicked

    Hello everyone.
    I have a report that displays quite a lot of information and has a lot of tabs.
    Now on my work monitor everything fits on the screen fine so there's no problem.
    When someone with laptop (smaller screen) uses the report they have to scroll down to view everything which is fine. The problem is when they scroll down and click on a tab, the screen shoots back up to the very top of the report and the user has to scroll back down again.
    Hopefully I explained that well enough.
    Is there anything I can do to get the screen to not move when they select a tab?
    Thanks for any help on this.
    Kieran

    One last bump!
    Thought it was possibly a problem with the curser focus always being at the top of the screen, but changing that didn't seem to do anything.
    Anyone got any ideas at all?

  • Hyperion Reporting Studio 9.3.1

    Any idea on how to import batch reports from previous Hyperion Reports. Currentyl, I have to import one report at a time and it is time consuming. Also, I would to know how to set up Web Forms and Data Grid in Workspace 9.3.1

    I was wondering if you might know what my problem is! (Well hyperion related anyway).
    I built an entire development environment for our 9.3.1 systems, including Financial Reporting. I attempted to export / import an entire zip folder full of reports; however, nothing happens on the import! When you supply the file, the status meter starts working and then it quickly ends without any success or failure message. Additionally, when I look in the folders, none of the reports have been imported. At first I thought the issue might have been related to the size of my zip file as I exported a large number of folders/reports. Unfortunately, I still receive the same issue when I try importing a much smaller file of ~10 reports.
    Any thoughts as to what the issue might be?
    Thanks!

  • Hyperion Reports 2.6 updating substituion variables in a prompt

    I'm running into a problem where I update a substitution variable on my Essbase server and then go to pull a report in Hyperion Reports v2.6.The report is set up to prompt the user to choose a member from the Time dimension, I have the default set to use the substitution variable 'cur_week'.The problem is when I update the variable on Essbase and pull the report, the report defaults to the old variable value. The only way I can get it to display the new value is to restart the Report Server.Has anyone experienced this? Do you know of a way to work around this?Thanks in advance

    Decided to go with a batch script to restart the service on Report Server. Combined with a MaxL script to update the subvariables. Run both back to back and it seems to work.Not the ideal solution, but as long as I don't kick off while a report is running, it seems like it will work.

  • Hyperion Reports 7.25 Report Runs 10 - 20 Times Slower in FR 11.1.1.3

    I exported a Report from Hyperion Reports V7.2.5 and Imported it into Financial Reporting V11.1.1.3 via Workspace. When I run the report in Financial Reporting Studio 11.1.1.3 or Workspace 11.1.1.3 it is 10 to 20 times slower.
    Note, no changes have been made to the Report structure or the structure of the Essbase database that is being used as a datasource.
    However, the Essbase Version is now 11.1.1.3. It was 7. Also, the server hosting the Financial Reporting 11.1.1.3 application is a VMWare Server - the server hosting Hyperion Reports V7.2.5 was a physical server not VMWare.
    The only thing I did notice that was different in the report is when you highlight the entire grid and right-click to view Data Optimization Settings - there is an option in 11.1.1.3 that says "Essbase Queries use MDX" "Combined Queries with Member". This doesn't exist in Hyperion Reports V7.2.5.
    Has anyone experience a simlar issue with this extreme performance degradation? I am using more robust servers with faster cpu's and more memory.
    I did play around with the tcp/ip settings as recommended in a version 9.x support document, but this did nothing.

    Thanks for replying Natesh.
    Unfortunately I don't have a physical server to play around with. This was one of my concerns with using VMWare.
    I didn't make any product configurations for Hyperion Reports V7.2.5. The only configurations I made were for tcp/ip settings.
    I did try to run a V 7.2.5 report against Essbase 11 and it ran just as fast as it did against Essbase 7. This definitely leads me to believe the slower performance is related to Financial Reporting V11.1.1.3 or something on the server - note the performance issue is only on reports that retrieve large data sets. For all smaller reports there is no issue.

  • Hyperion Reports 11.1.2.2 database login issue

    HI ,
    We are on Hyperion reports v11.1.2.2 , for some reason whenever user logged in and try to pull the report ..it is prompting for database user credentials for first time(first report).
    After that it wont ask for any other report. How to avoid this prompt?? ..is there anyway that we can save password forever, ...so it wont ask for each login. or is there anyway that we can pass the login credenitials of workspace to even for database.
    Did anyone faced this issue.?? Can you please post your experineces on this..
    Thanks

    Hi,
    11.1.1.3 and 11.1.2.3 are totally different in many aspects. Again there are various factors which decide the performance like  OS, DB, App Server, Web Server and Component level. So its hard to forecast the performance even before we get in to the the environment. In general unlike your 11.1.1.3 there are so many performance tuning parameters we have in 11.1.2.3.
    Regards,
    Nowshad.
