Understand Telstra Air data use

Telstra Air® data usage and your bill
Telstra Air will appear on the data usage page of your bill.
Telstra Air membership is included in your nominated eligible broadband service and all data that you use at Telstra Air and Fon hotspots counts towards your home broadband data allowance, including BigPond Unmetered websites, BigPond Movies, Presto, and Foxtel Go.
If you aren’t sure if you have activated Telstra Air you can check using Telstra 24x7® App or by logging into My Account and confirming your status.
Home Broadband data allowance and the Telstra Air Network™
When you use data at Telstra Air hotspots or any Fon Spots overseas, all data usage counts towards your home broadband data allowance, including BigPond Unmetered websites, BigPond Movies, Presto, and Foxtel Go. Your usage on Telstra Air will be included under your total broadband usage. You can check detailed data usage online in My Account.
Always ensure that your mobile device displays the Wi-Fi symbol when accessing the Telstra Air Network. As an added level of precaution you could disable mobile data in your device’s settings.
View your Telstra Air® data usage
You can find how much data you have used while connected to the Telstra Air Network™ by logging into My Account and selecting the usage tab on the Internet page. You’ll see a graph that breaks down total data usage by your Home Broadband, Telstra Air and free, unmetered usage. The data usage graph is usually current as of about 12 hours ago.
You can also see your combined data usage in the Telstra 24x7® App.
Any data used on the Telstra Air Network will count towards your home broadband allowance, including BigPond Unmetered websites, BigPond Movies, Presto, and Foxtel Go.
Websites with the BigPond Green Dot and your Telstra Air broadband usage
When you use a Telstra Air or Fon hotspot, all data usage counts towards your home broadband data allowance. This includes BigPond Unmetered websites, BigPond Movies, Presto and Foxtel Go.
Avoid unexpected data usage
When using a Telstra Air hotspot or Fon Spot it is important to make sure that you have successfully connected before using data to save unwanted data charges. It is important to stay close to the Wi-Fi hotspot.

Re: Understand Telstra Air data use
How is a "portion" of my home broadband used for others when I sign up to Telstra Air? My cable connection is often very slow (?), So I am assuming when you let others use it, it will be even slower!?
If you are allowing access to my home network to others once I sign up for Telstra Air what security do I have have?

Telstra Air - Frequently Asked Questions

What is Telstra Air®?
Telstra Air is Telstra’s new Wi-Fi network. Eligible Telstra Home Broadband customers can become Telstra Air members and use their home broadband allowance out and about, via our network of Wi-Fi hotspots.
If customers have an eligible Telstra home broadband service and a compatible gateway, they can become a member. Their compatible gateway creates a Telstra Air hotspot that others can use. Members share some of their home internet bandwidth at home in return for accessing their home broadband allowance at Telstra Air hotspots across Australia and at over 15 million Fon Spots overseas. Over time, by sharing, we expect members will co-create a community of hundreds of thousands of hotspots across Australia.
The launch of Telstra Air follows the rollout of a trial network of more than 2,600 hotspots at payphone sites nationally and a free trial of the technology that saw over 1.5 million individual users connect.
How can customers access the network?
Telstra Air is available to customers with an eligible Telstra home broadband service and a compatible gateway. New customers taking up an eligible bundle with a compatible gateway will be offered a Telstra Air membership as part of their bundle (they can opt out when buying the bundle). Existing customers can visit www.telstra.com/joinair to find out the best way to join.
Do existing customers have to opt in?
Existing eligible customers have to opt in to the new service by visiting www.telstra.com/joinair. Existing eligible Telstra home broadband customers without an eligible gateway will need to upgrade to a compatible gateway to become a member. Customers can purchase gateways outright or on monthly repayment options.
How do customers know if they have a compatible gateway?
There are four home network gateways that are Telstra Air-ready allowing eligible customers to become a member. They are the
Telstra Gateway Max™ (ADSL/NBN TG799 device and Cable CG6300 device)
T-Gateway (ADSL/NBN TG797 device) and
ADSL Premium Gateway (TG587).
A firmware update enabling the broadcasting of Telstra Air and Fon signals will be applied to a customer’s gateway when they sign up, if it has not already happened. Customers can go into their gateway settings (http://mygateway) to check if the upgrade has been successful – they will see “Telstra Air” appear in their gateway interface. The hotspot will only be switched on once a customer has chosen to become a Telstra Air member.
At launch, approximately 700,000 of our Telstra Broadband customers already have Telstra-Air ready gateways.
At what point are customers Air member – does the gateway need to be active or is just when they opt in?
Customers become Telstra Air members once their order has been submitted in our CRM (Siebel). It’s at this stage that we automatically send them a welcome email (the ‘opt-in’ KMI). Gateway installation and broadband service activation can occur at a later date.
How do I know if my existing Home Broadband Service is eligible for Telstra Air?
Telstra Air is available to ADSL, Cable and NBN home broadband customers.
Customers need a Telstra Gateway Max™, T-Gateway® or an ADSL Premium Gateway.
If customers don’t have an eligible Telstra home broadband service they can head in store or call 132 200 to discuss their options.
*Naked Cable broadband customers are unable to join Telstra Air.
What happens if I want to bring my own gateway?
If you use your own gateway, you will not be eligible for Telstra Air, as you won’t be able to share with the community. If you had joined the community and have chosen to replace your Telstra Gateway with another non-compatible gateway, your Telstra Air membership will be withdrawn.
How do new bundle customers join?
New bundle customers with an eligible broadband service and compatible gateway will be informed about becoming a member when they sign up to their new service and can decide then if they would like to become a member. Our new Telstra Premier Bundles include a Telstra Gateway Max™ for new customers.
New Telstra home broadband customers will be able access Telstra Air hotspots in Australia before their home broadband service is activated. They will receive an email when they can connect with information on how to get started, usually within 2 days of ordering.
Is the service free?
Telstra Air allows eligible broadband customers to use their Telstra home broadband allowance when they connect to a Telstra Air hotspot. Unless customers need to upgrade their gateway, there is no additional cost to join the community.
Can I use Telstra Air if I am not a Telstra Air customer?
Currently, you can’t access the Telstra Air Network using your home broadband allowance if you’re not a Telstra Air member. Non Telstra Air members can buy a Fon guest pass for the residential part of our network. We are working on providing guest passes for the Telstra built (e.g. payphone sites) part of the network for later this year.
Why are the BigPond Unmetered/Green Dot sites metered on Telstra Air?
Unmetering of BigPond is available in the home and on some of our mobile services – it’s not available on Wi-Fi.
That said, with the recent increases we have made to the majority of our fixed broadband customers’ data allowances we believe they will have ample data to access the internet via Telstra Air.
When will non members be able to buy a guest pass for all of the hotspots?
We are working on providing guest passes for the Telstra built (e.g. payphone sites) part of the network for launch later this year.
Why is Telstra not able to offer a guest pass for Telstra-run hotspots at launch?
Our core focus has been on ensuring Telstra home broadband customers who join Telstra Air can access the network using their home broadband allowance. We want to offer all Australians, irrespective of whether they are a Telstra customer or not, access to two million Wi-Fi hotspots across the nation within five years. We are working on providing guest passes for the Telstra built (e.g. payphone sites) part of the network later this year.
Can a customer share their Telstra Air membership with family and friends?
Telstra Air Network access is given to the owner of the home broadband account. Customers can access Telstra Air on multiple devices by using their unique details to login, but only a maximum of 3 devices can connect to the Telstra Air Network in Australia at any given time.
Any usage at a Telstra Air hotspot will count towards a customer’s home broadband data allowance.
What’s the difference between the Telstra ID username and the Telstra Air username?
Telstra ID username is what customers use to log in to My Account and other Telstra online services. Customers will also use the Telstra ID for accessing the Telstra Air Network. If customers don’t have a Telstra ID, they can register for one online with their account number.
Telstra Air username ends in @wifi.telstra.com and can be used to access the Fon Wi-Fi hotspots when overseas when using the local captive portal to login. The login details can be found in My Account Telstra Air username where users can also reset their password.
What is a Fon Wi-Fi pass and how can you purchase one?
Fon Wi-Fi passes allow non-Telstra Air members the ability to access the hotspot that is broadcast from Telstra Air home gateways and Fon Spots overseas.
Customers can do this by connecting to the “Fon Wi-Fi” network and purchasing their pass from the Fon login page.
Can I continue to use Telstra Air if I have reached my data allowance at home?
No. If you use up your Telstra home broadband data allowance when you are out and about you won't be able to access the Telstra Air hotspots until you enter a new billing period, or use one of your 3 annual data top ups.
How much power will my modem use and will it impact my electricity bill?
No. While the Telstra Air modems will broadcast two Wi-Fi channels, our testing shows very minimal incremental power consumption.
CONNECTING TO TELSTRA AIR
How many devices can I connect to the Telstra Air Network™ at any given time?
Telstra Air members can connect up to 3 Wi-Fi devices to the Telstra Air Network in Australia at any given time, using your Telstra ID.
You can connect your devices to a Telstra Air hotspot as long as you:
Are a member of the Telstra Air community
Have a Wi-Fi enabled device
Are within range of a Telstra Air hotspot
Have connected to the “Telstra Air” network using your Telstra ID username and password or via the Telstra Air App
What’s the difference between Telstra Air app and Telstra 24x7 app?
The Telstra Air app enables an automated connection experience for Telstra Air members to our Telstra Air hotspots across Australia and millions of Fon Spots overseas on iOS and Android devices. The app also includes a hotspot map so customers can find their nearest hotspot when out and about. Customers can access the Telstra Air Network using the app provided they are a Telstra customer with an eligible home broadband service, compatible gateway and have become a Telstra Air member.
The Telstra 24x7 App allows customers to manage their Telstra services in one place. Customers can view how much they have used on their Telstra home broadband data allowance, current and past bill summaries, pay bills, purchase data packs, take advantage of the Telstra THANKS discounted movie ticket offer and access support. A link to the Telstra Air app is also included within 24x7.
Can customers get the Telstra Air App on their BlackBerry or Windows Phone?
No. Unfortunately the Telstra Air app is not available on BlackBerry or Windows devices at this time. Telstra Air members with these devices can still connect using a log-in page where they can enter their Telstra Digital Identity username and password.
IN HOME SERVICE
Will Telstra Air impact the performance of a customer’s Home Broadband service?
If a customer is a Telstra Air member their Telstra Gateway creates a separate Wi-Fi hotspot that others can use. When others use this hotspot, it doesn't impact the customer’s broadband allowance, it only shares a portion of their home broadband bandwidth.
We know that Wi-Fi speeds are important to our customers so we have put in place network settings are in place to ensure their home network performance is protected. This includes limiting the number of guests per hotspot and switching off hotspot sharing when the line speed into a home drops below a certain level.
What is the service limit set at?
We have set an engineering limit that we will adjust over time base on customer feedback.
How can customers disconnect from the Telstra Air Network?
To disconnect from the Telstra Air Network, customers can simply turn the Wi-Fi off on their device. This will force their device to disconnect from Telstra Air.
Alternatively, if a customer has the Telstra Air App installed on their Android device, they can open the app and hit the ‘Disconnect’ button.
On Android and iOS devices you can also choose to ‘forget’ a network. This will mean that your device will delete your login details to the network, and when you are in range, your device will not try to automatically connect to it. To do this, open the Wi-Fi network list in your device settings, tap the network name, and select the ‘Forget’ button.
As the home broadband user, does my data use in the home get priority over others sharing it?
We have service rules in place to ensure that only a portion of the home broadband customer's Wi-Fi bandwidth is available to share with other the hotspot users. These rules determine when the hotspot is available for Telstra Air members to access which helps protect the customer experience of the home broadband user.
HOTSPOT SERVICE
What are the speeds like when connected to the Telstra Air Network?
Given this is a Wi-Fi network, speeds may vary depending on your proximity to our hotspots, the number of others connected to the same hotspot, and the device you are using. We expect that customers will be able to undertake activities such as sending emails, uploading photos and browsing the internet when they are using the Telstra Air Network™.
Is there a time limit on how long customers can be connected to the Telstra Air Network?
Customers can access Telstra Air hotspots for as long as you like. However, after 20 minutes of inactivity or 12 hours of continuous connection, your connection will time out and you’ll need to reconnect.
Is there a map that can help customers find where they can connect to Telstra Air?
Yes. Customers can find Telstra Air hotspots by using the Telstra Air App or by visiting Telstra.com/air and selecting “Find a Hotspot” to open the interactive Wi-Fi Hotspot Locator.
We use pin points to identify public hotspots, while a heat map will indicate the general areas where home gateways are broadcasting Telstra Air.
What is the range like on a Telstra Air hotspot?
Generally speaking Wi-Fi hotspots have a range of up to 20 metres indoors but in optimal conditions can reach up to 50 metres outdoors.
However, the range of a Wi-Fi hotspot can be impacted by a number of factors including surrounding buildings, interference from other wireless devices, weather conditions and the number of other users.
We recommend customers stay close to the hotspot and keep an eye on their device’s Wi-Fi signal strength.
Overseas Use
How can customers connect to Fon Spots when travelling overseas?
Customers can connect to Fon Wi-Fi Hotspots (known as Fon Spots) using the Telstra Air App, the same way they use it in Australia.
If you don’t have the App you can login manually.
Turn on your device’s Wi-Fi
Select “Fon WiFi” from your Wi-Fi network list
Once you have connected to the Fon Wi-Fi network, open your web browser.
Enter your @wifi.telstra.com username and password into the Fon login page
The @wifi.telstra.com username and password is available in My Account
How do you find Fon Spots?
The Telstra Air app shows where Fon Spots are overseas. If you don’t have the app customers can go to Telstra.com/wifi to find out where they are.
Fon Spots can be found in the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Belgium, Brazil, Germany, Portugal, Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, Spain, Italy and in the Moscow region of Russia.
How many devices can be connected to a Fon hotspot?
When connecting overseas only 1 device can be connected at a given time to the Fon network. This means if you want to use Fon Wi-Fi on 2 devices while overseas, you will have to first disconnect from Fon on one of them, before connecting the other one.
PRICING AND USAGE ALLOWANCES
What is the pricing structure for each of the offers?
For our fixed broadband customers Telstra Air membership is included in their plan or Bundle price, as long as they have an eligible broadband service and a compatible gateway. As a Telstra Air member, data usage at Telstra Air hotspots and Fon Spots will count towards your home broadband allowance, including usage at sites that are unmetered from your home broadband service such as BigPond Movies, Presto, Foxtel Go and our BigPond unmetered sites.
How are customers charged when accessing the Fon network overseas?
As a Telstra Air member there is no additional charge for accessing Fon overseas - any data used at Fon Spots overseas will count towards the customer's home broadband allowance.
Security
How secure is the Telstra Air Network?
Providing a secure and easy Wi-Fi experience for customers is important to us.
Like most public Wi-Fi services, browsing sessions on Telstra Air are open with the communication between a computing device and the wireless point unencrypted. We recommend to customers that it’s okay to use the service for general web browsing and for streaming content, however any activity that requires a secure connection such as internet banking should be done via a mobile or fixed broadband service.
If customers are wanting to share personal information when they’re out and about should consider:
Using a mobile network connection
Using a VPN app which in initiates the exclusive connection from the computing device
Or checking that the site they would like to use has HTTPS to protect their exchanged data before proceeding. HTTPS is in wide use on popular sites such as Facebook which started offering it in 2011.
What customer information is collected when connected to a Telstra Air hotspot?
Once you are confirmed as a member of the Telstra Air network we don’t monitor your internet usage other than how much data you use from your FBB account.

Business use of Telstra Air

I have two businesses with two seperate Telstra Biz Essentials accounts.
While I understand that businesses are not able to register yet, can business owners use the Telstra Air service when away from their business?
I have been waiting for something like this to happen for a while now.
Next question.
If and when businesses become available to share, do you have to use a Telstra modem?. We have a DLink modem in one motel and a Netgear in the other.

Currently it is not available for business customers.
There has been no official announcements of if and when it will become available to Business customers.
If and when it does become available, then the answer would be yes, since consumer customer have to use the Telstra modems... the main reason for this is that in order for you to be able to access air while you are out, you have to share you bandwidth as well, and the firmware which allows this is only compatible with a handful of Telstra modems (this is so far, but likely will still only be approved models which they can ensure compliance with).

Using Telstra Air With your own modem

Hello Everyone,
I received a Telstra Gateway max in the mail for upgrading to one of Telstra's latest bundles.
To be honest i am not too fond of any of Telstra's modems i noticed the device has a wan port on the back of it.
I then had a thought that i could hook the modem up to my current modem and use the Gateway max to use Telstra Air.
So here is my current setup
<Modem>--------<Telstra Gateway Max>
All my computers connect to the main modem and the gateway max has a single access point enabled but with SSID broadcast disabled.
The configuration changes i have done in the gateway max is just putting my pppoe username and password in.
And this all works wireless devices can now see and connect to Telstra Air and Fon WiFi

Thanks for that Gibbsy, handy info fopr those looking for a similar work around.

Understanding the AIR Sandbox?

Well I am learning the hard way that you can't just take any
old Flash sample and make it work in AIR.
I have had mixed results to date, with one issues being
sample Flash files that use AS2 components not working.
But now this...
I am trying out this sample
http://www.flash-db.com/Tutorials/loadingAS3/loadingData.php?page=4
And got the PHP/MySQL sample to work as expected in Flash,
converted to Flash AIR, works as well, debug as ADL, works well
also, however when making a final AIR app, it does not fully work,
and the images are missing.
I am not expecting anyone to help me decode, fix the sample
code, what I need to know is what really are the underlying
difference between Flash SWF, ADL, and a AIR app, to make this
happen, something I think may be answered by understanding the AIR
sandbox if that is the correct term.
This is in Flash CS3/AS3 and AIR 1.0 update and player.
TIA.

Hi,
AIR has an additional sandbox called the application sandbox.
All AIR related functionality like file access can only be accessed
by content in the application sandbox. Content coming in over from
the network (like HTML in an iframe) is not in the application
sandbox.
Read more about this at
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/introduction_to_air_security.html
In AIR, URLs passed to URLRequest and others can read from
the application installation directory and an application storage
directory by prefixing app: and app-storage: as protocol
specifiers. I think by default, it reads from app:. So if you do a
URLRequest("loaddb.php") it will read the code of the php file (if
you've packaged the php file in your air app). But a URLRequest("
http://localhost/loaddb.php")
should work.
The final .air file is a zip file which includes the main
swf, an application descriptor and assets for the program. ADL and
the final yourairapp.exe differs when it comes to Updater.update()
(self update API) and the app: and app-storage: location.

Privacy and security of Telstra Air

Is there a WiFi hotspot in Port Hedland? When I use my mobile phone as an AP, does the data downloaded register against my monthly usage plan?

If you use your mobile as an access point it does come out of your mobile data pack.
To find a hotspot look here http://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/Find-your-nearest-Telstra-Retail/ct-p/tstore#?searchOption=wifiHotspots&searchQuery=
If you connect to a Telstra Air Hotspot or FON and you have Telstra Air enabled it will come out of your home broadband quota

How to cut off data use on a line in a family share plan?

Is there a way to cut off data useage on one line in a family share plan? I have one person that is going over and want to simply cut off the data use after she reaches say 110% of her use in the billing cycle.

I agree get Family Base and charge then the extra $5 it will cost since that person doesn't seem to understand the concept of SHARING. Or up the data plan and charge the extra to them and tell them since you had to increase the data plan because them they can pay the extra mount.

Error while importing Item MAster Data using DTW

Hi,
when we are importing item master data using items template
it is giving error.
Error:":connected value 1 was not found "
can any one send the oitems template that is working fine wthout any error.
Thanks,
Neetu

You cannot import data prepration templates>>Testcase1_Test Data for Import function>Oitems directly.
You will have to do certain prerequisites like setting CommissionGroup, CommissionPercent, CommissionSum,CustomsGroupCode etc., in SAP before importing Items.
So I would like you to try out with minimum fields in the template and import. After understanding, you can import the required fields.
I suggest you to use the template from "C:\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates\Templates\oItems"

How to read data using SQLGetData from a block, forward-only cursor (ODBC)

Hi there. I am trying to read data a small number of rows of data from either a Microsoft Access or Microsoft SQL Server (whichever is being used) as quickly as possible. I have connected to the database using the ODBC API's and have run a select
statement using a forward-only, read-only cursor. I can use either SQLFetch or SQLExtendedFetch (with a rowset size of 1) to retrieve each successive row and then use SQLGetData to retrieve the data from each column into my local variables. This
all works fine.
My goal is to see if I can improve performance incrementally by using SQLExtendedFetch with a rowset size greater than 1 (block cursor). However, I cannot figure out how to move to the first of the rowset returned so that I can call SQLGetData to retrieve
each column. If I were using a cursor type that was not forward-only, I would use SQLSetPos to do this. However, using those other cursor types are slower and the whole point of the exercise is to see how fast I can read this data. I can
successfully read the data using a block forward only cursor if I bind each column to an array in advance of the call to SQLExtendedFetch. However, that has several drawbacks and is documented to be slower for small numbers of rows. I really
want to see what kind of speed I can achieve using a block, forward-only, read-only cursor using SQLGetData to get each column.
Here is the test stub that I created:
' Create a SELECT statement to retrieve the entire collection.
selectString = "SELECT [Year] FROM REAssessmentRolls"
' Create a result set using the existing read/write connection. The read/write connection is used rather than
' the read-only connection because it will reflect the most recent changes made to the database by this running
' instance of the application without having to call RefreshReadCache.
If (clsODBCDatabase.HandleDbcError(SQLAllocStmt(gDatabase.ReadWriteDbc, selectStmt), gDatabase.ReadWriteDbc, errorBoxTitle) <> enumODBCSQLAPIResult.SQL_SUCCESS) Then
GoTo LoadExit
End If
Call clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLSetStmtOption(selectStmt, SQL_CONCURRENCY, SQL_CONCUR_READ_ONLY), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
Call clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLSetStmtOption(selectStmt, SQL_CURSOR_TYPE, SQL_CURSOR_FORWARD_ONLY), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
Call clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLSetStmtOption(selectStmt, SQL_ROWSET_SIZE, MAX_ROWSET_SIZE), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
If (clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLExecDirect(selectStmt, selectString, Len(selectString)), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle) <> enumODBCSQLAPIResult.SQL_SUCCESS) Then
GoTo LoadExit
End If
' Cursor through result set. Each time we fetch data we get a SET of rows.
sqlResult = clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLExtendedFetch(selectStmt, SQL_FETCH_NEXT, 0, rowsFetched, rowStatus(0)), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
Do While (sqlResult = enumODBCSQLAPIResult.SQL_SUCCESS)
' Read all rows in the row set
For row = 1 To rowsFetched
If rowStatus(row - 1) = SQL_ROW_SUCCESS Then
sqlResult = clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLSetPos(selectStmt, row, SQL_POSITION, SQL_LOCK_NO_CHANGE), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
Call clsODBCDatabase.SQLGetShortField(selectStmt, 1, assessmentRollYear(row - 1))
Console.WriteLine(assessmentRollYear(row - 1).ToString)
End If
Next
' If the rowset we just retrieved contains the maximum number of rows allowed, there could be more data.
If rowsFetched = MAX_ROWSET_SIZE Then ' there could be more data
sqlResult = clsODBCDatabase.HandleStmtError(SQLExtendedFetch(selectStmt, SQL_FETCH_NEXT, 0, rowsFetched, rowStatus(0)), selectStmt, errorBoxTitle)
Else
Exit Do ' no more rowsets
End If
Loop ' Do While (sqlResult = enumODBCSQLAPIResult.SQL_SUCCESS)
The test fails on the call to SQLSetPos. The error message I get is "Invalid cursor position; no keyset defined". I have tried passing SET_POSITION and also SET_REFRESH. Same error. There has to be a way to do this!
Thank you for your help!

Custom Measure - Unable to Submit Data Using Input Schedule

We have an application that requires storage of data on a job-to-date basis. To accommodate this, the application was changed to a YTD application and 3 custom measures were added:
JTD (base data)
YTD_JOBS (offsets current period against last month of prior period)
PERIODIC_JOBS (offsets current period against prior period)
Everything is working and the measures resolve to the correct values. The system also completes logic (advanced and dimension) properly. Data may also be submitted through an Import process.
However, we are unable to submit data using an input schedule. We consistently get a "no data to refresh" error message. When the same schedule is used in the older, periodic version of the application, the submission works as expected.
I suspect the problem is the naming of the custom measures is the root cause. I have been unable to find documentation (BPC 5.1M) related to custom measures for 5.1. Any help resolving this issue and/or tracking down custom measures documentation for v5.1 is much appreciated.
Cheers,

Joost,
I believe what you are describing is the root of the issue. The application is set to YTD as the data input type both in the web admin section and in the database table. The problem is that JTD is the input member for this application -- we are loading job-to-date values instead of year-to-date.
It seems that BPC does not understand JTD as a "base level" measure fort the input method. I have not been able to find a table in the database that defines PERIODIC and YTD. My hope was to add JTD to the settings.
Unless someone else has made something like this work, I suspect that I'll have to use YTD as the ID of the base member and restructure the custom measures. We did not start this way since the user community thinks in terms of JTD data.
