Track Business Rule

hi all,
I launched a rule from Tools> Business rule. If i go to job status tab it dosent show me if my rule is running or not. when i checked my essbase its shows me that the rule is running. How can i track if i m user that my rule is still running or it is finished?
Please advise !
Thanks!

Hi,
Usually it should be displayed in the status page, you can always check the hbrlaunch.log to find when rules were launch and completed, who launched them and when, have a search for the log.
Cheers

How to track Hyperion Business Rules

Hi
Which log can we look into to track which HBR'S were created/deleted by users along with timestamp?
Env:11.1.2.1 ,WIN2K8 64 bit
Thanks,
Manoj

I wouldnt have thought many users were creating business rules?
anyway not sure the HBR logs by standard will log who created/deleted a rule, maybe if the logging is set to a different level.
You can also check out the relational eas database, table HBRRules has ModifiedBy,Owner and LastModified columns, the ModifiedBy/Owner will need to matched back to the user, it will not tell you deletions though.

How to track what your Calc Script/Business Rule is doing?

Hi,
I wanted to know the methods or the best way to keep a track of what your Calculation Script of Business Rule is doing once you execute it.
Or suppose it fails for some reason and the reason is not a syntax error (that it usually would show up in EAS while validating)how can you know what's going wrong?
Please let me know !
~ Adella

All the CDFs are available at - https://www.samplecode.oracle.com/tracker/tracking/linkid/prpl1004/action/ExecuteQuery?query=essbase1
There are also the Echo CDFs in the String collection -
@JechoBoth - Echoes back all arguments passed to the function. To pass an array of arguments use @List(comma delimited list).
@JechoString - Echoes back all arguments passed to the function. To pass an array of arguments use @List(comma delimited list).
@JechoDouble - Echoes back all arguments passed to the function. To pass an array of arguments use @List(comma delimited list).
Saying that they usually need to be a calc block so if you are expecting to find where a calc is up to in an aggregation it is not going to tell you much.
Also you have to watch out if you are calculating a large number of blocks then you can end up outputing more information that you would ever need.
If you look in the essbase application log you can actually get an idea of which part of the script the calc is executing and times without the need for CDFs.
Also if a script fails then the app log is the place to go and check.
You can also look at the standard calc commands in essbase
SET NOTICE - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/frameset.htm?set_notice.html
"Monitors the progress of your calculation by providing completion notices at intervals during the calculation. The number of notices depends on the level you specify."
SET MSG - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/frameset.htm?set_msg.html
"Sets the level of messaging you want returned about calculations, and enables simulated calculations."
or if on 11.1.2.x then the @RETURN function - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/frameset.htm?return.html
"Exits the calculation immediately under specified logical conditions. You can use the IF... ELSEIF calculation command block to specify the logical error conditions, and use the @RETURN function to exit the calculation with customized error messages and levels."

EAS does not show Business Rules node

I'm in the process of validating an 11.1.2 Planning installation. This is the development environment, so one Essbase server, one everything else server.
One of the issues I've run across is that my client install of EAS does not have a Business Rules node (I am staying away from Calculation Manager because of multiple horror stories from multiple sources I have heard about it).
However, it does show up in the launched-from-the-web version.
The web launched release numbers are:
EAS 11.1.2.0.00.462
APS 11.1.2.0.0.615
HBR 11.1.2.0.0.722
And now this gets really weird. The client launched release numbers are:
EAS 11.1.1.2.0.00.462
APS 11.1..2.0.0.615
HBR *4.1.1*
Somehow my clean install has magically gotten the last release of Planning 4's Business Rules?
It sure sounds like something didn't get installed correctly. I was able to find this thread regarding the same problem:
How to add HBR plugin in EAS console
In that thread, RahulS wrote:
To sort this out give a try to copy common/log4j folder from the sever to the client or install the Integration Services Client on the machine where the Administration Services Console is installed.Unfortunately, there are multiple log4j folders and none (that I can see) that have a parent of common. Can anyone give me some guidance as to if this is a good solution and if so, a better hint as to what log4j folder I should grab?

P.S. I found the install log for EAS and found two errors at the end of the install process, but I believe these are related to writing an icon to the desktop. This doesn't surprise me as this Vista laptop is locked down tight.

There you go I was on the right track, who needs oracle support :)^^^Isn't this board a sort of unofficial Oracle support? I have to admit that after my first fruitless search of the KB on support.oracle.com, I purposely came here first before I had the client log a SR.
That's wrong, of course, or at least a little illogical, given that the customer pays for support and after all, answering these kinds of questions is sort of their primary job. Putting on my ODTUG hat, KScope 2011 is going to have a support symposium that is going to focus on process (like why is Cameron so brain-dead that he can't type 'EAS and node' into the KB search field which pops up the obvious answer?) so that people don't do a time waster like I just did. It's going to have some pretty big names and I hope you all can come.
I'm going to forward this thread to my contact at Oracle support as evidence that even "intelligent" people could use some help with how to do searches, no matter how elementary that may be.

Execution time of Business Rule

Hi,
My rule is taking more than a day to run. How can i watch its exact execution time. I can't see it in job console as it shows that the business rule is still in processing. And i have also checked in HSP_JOB_STATUS table. It also shows that it is in processing.
Is there an other way to see the exact execution time of business rule.
Thanks and Regards.

To see the exact execution time, you can check in HBRlaunch.log file in planning.
If you want to track the execution time of different parts of your calculation script/business rule then see the essbase application log in detail in EAS.
To see log specific to your business rule, use maxl and spool log to text file, this will give you the logs related to your business rule only and the execution time.
Thanks

Versioning Business Rules

Hi Friends,
I came across this questions during my discussion with stakeholders who plan to leverage OBR in their applications:
Q] If we edit Business Rules at run time, how can we maintain versions to track changes and revert to a previous version if required?
Any suggestions/experiences?
Thanks,
Sachin.

Yep. Since MDS is included in SQL Server I have several customers who use it to create a simple way for end users to manage "homeless" data.

MDS Business rule regular expression to validate code to be combination of two attributes

Hi
I need to have a business rule as below:
entity1 have code, Attr1 and Attr2
I have to ensure code is always combination of Attr1 and Attr2. If either of the Attr1 or Attr2 is blank, validation should fail.
I tried below possibilities:
1. Set Code to Auto generate
2. Change tracking enabled for Attr1 and Attr2
and below BRs:
1. Attr1 has changed in group 1 AND (Attr2 has changed in group 1) then action:     Code equals a concatenated value Attr1 + Attr2
2. Attr1 is equal to Blank OR Attr2 is equal to Blank then action:     Attr1 is required
    Attr2 is required
3. Code must be unique Attr1 ,Attr2
I see BRs 1 and 2 working. I have BR 3 to fail validation in case BR1 fails resulting code to remain auto generated value.
but i dont see BR-3 working. At the end teh result is code with auto generated value validation is success.
Is there a way i can overcome this issue?
Any idea of referring attrbitues in Regular expression of this sort... to set Code equals to [Attr1] + [Attr2]?

OK I bit the bullet and contacted support on this one.
There is a known issue with MDS 2012 and business rules with a combination of "must be unique" attributes. If you do not list the attributes in the same order that they were created you will get the generic error I cited. At first they told me it must be
in the same order the attributes are in and that worked on one entity but not the other. The difference was that in the second entity I previously rearranged the attributes in question. Once I changed the order in the business rule to reflect the *original*
order it worked like a champ.
Hopefully this helps save someone some time and money.

New business rules for email notification

I suggest adding 3 business rule: send an email notification when the rows was
successfully:
- added
- changed
- deleted
In the rule settings allow you to specify the email list; for example: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
from Moscow with money

Currently MDS can track changes on Attribute level, and you can create a business role which will be triggered if the attribute value is changed.

Error while creating a Business rule dictionary in Jdevloper 11g

Hi,
I am getting the following error when i define the Inputs and outputs during creating on a new business rule dictionary.
Some XML schemas are not in the "xsd" directory! gardes.xsd
Please manually move or copy the Schemas
I am following the "Creating a Rule-enabled Non-SOA Java EE Application" guide in Oracle® Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle Business Rules, 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
The two schema files generated were having different content after creation of XML schema file so I copied the file to make them same. Its still giving me the same error.
Please Help.

Error while selecting planning app in Business Rules

Hi ,
I am not being able to select the planning outline while developing business rules (but I can select the Essbase Outline). Whenever I expand the Planning node, an error pops up the details of which says "Error connecting to Essbase server machinename/testapp." There is a details button which says: "Could not log into Planning "Detail:Could not log in to Planning Server".
Can anyone help me out. I am not being able to view the rules in the planning UI .
I have tried for recycle the EAS even though i am getting same error.
could you please let me know the solution for this
Thanks
mahesh

Hi,
Always follow this process, stop the planning service and eas service.
Start RMI service
Start EAS
Start Planning
Log into the web planning application
Then go into EAS and create a new rule, select an outline to the application you have just logged into via web.
Also if you are using the default admin user to log into EAS try another user that has been provisioned with business rules roles
If you still have problems then go to My Oracle Support (formely metalink3) then have a look at doc id - 763345.1
Ok?
Cheers

Get cell value in Planning Data form and using it in a business rule

Hi Everybody,
if i set the data type of an Account Member as text, is there a way to get the value inserted by the user in a dataform, turning it as dimensional member and using it in a business rule?
So, if the user insert the value "USA" in a cell, can i use any functions to tell essbase that "USA" is a dimensional member and then using it in a business rule, for example in a cross-dimension like Period1->FY12->USA?
I tried to use the function @Member and it doesn't work, but i'm wondering if there is a way that can let me get the value inserted and use it just like a dimensional member. What are the ways that can let user input value that can be used in a business rule? I think one is by using SmartList, is there any other ways? Maybe using variables?? As an alternative i tried to use Prompt Variable but there are too many members on which the rule must run.
Please help me, i wanna know if i can or not let the user input the member on which the rule must run...
Thank all guys
Bye
Maurizio

Thanks EW for your answer,
YesI could use SmartList even if i think it's very tough to handle. My experience on using SmartList in caclc script is not so good. I try to enter in details of my requirement:
I have 500 account members.
For each one, I have to calculate the monthly budget by sharing the amount among the months. The user wants to calculate it on the basis of the actual flow(over the months) of an unspecified account of the prior year. The unspecified account must be inserted in a data form.
So, i could use a Smart List but it colud be of 500 elements and then i should make a rule with as many IF as how many are the accounts. Or im wrong? The only way to use smart list dynamically in a business rule is by referring its values in a IF condition. Or i'm wrong.
I tried to use execution variable ma it seems don't work. In this case the user must pay attention to write the account correctly, otherwise as you say the rule doesn't work.
The value in PD0A020 is "PD0A000" (that is a dimensional member). The value in PD0A000 is "hello". In PD0A040 the rule returns "PD0A000" and not "hello" as i would. The function @Member appears to be not able to catch the dimensional member by the value in PD0A000.
{Example}="test"->"Input"->"Scenario_test"->"FY12"->"PD0A020";
Fix("test1","Input","Scenario_test","FY12")
"PD0A040"=@Member({Example});
endfix
So, my doubt is: is it possible for Essbase/Planning to use the value inserted in a data form and to turn it in a dimensional member? What are the practicable ways to let the user input/choose the member on which makes the rule run?
Thank you Ew, thank you guys
Maurizio

Business rule takes time to open

Hi,
Business rule takes much time when trying to open it.
I'm new to essbase. Can any one tell in which log i can get the information like why it takes much time like that.
Thanks
Kumar

we are facing this issue for particular user. In the same system, we tried with two different users. for 1st user that BR is opened in a minute, but the same BR took around 20mins to open for 2nd user
OS - Window XP
EAS version - 9.3.1
Example
A is 1st user --> XX business rule took 1min to open
B is 2nd user --> XX business rule took 20mins to open
Here both the users are having same access on the BR and the applications
Thanks
Kumar
