Unlock a specific member

Using the work status settings, I would like to unlock a specific member in a hierarchy but leave the rest locked.
Is this possible ? and how can I do that ?
thank you

Yes, unlocking a specific base member is possible, but you have to set each of the parent members up the tree to a corresponding (or lower) level of work state in order to be able to save data. Take, for instance, the following example (and BPC standard delivered Work States):
P1
--P2
C1
C2
--P3
C3
C4
Assume that all are set to Locked to start. In order to set C2 to Unlocked work state, you must set P2 and P1 to Unlocked work state first. Alternatively, you could set C2 to Submitted and then P2 and P1 could be either Submitted or Unlocked.
Let me know if this answers your question.

AS/400 - point SQL to specific member

When creating a result set via SQL in a java application, what is the best way to point to specific table member? I don't want to issue an OVRDBF unless I have to.

You create an SQL alias, like this:Statement create = conn.createStatement();
create.executeUpdate("Create Alias MonSales For Sales(M20031020)");
create.close();where the member name is in the (parentheses). You can then do queries like
Select * from MonSales
using the alias name.

Security issue Making a specific member (period) readonly 11.1.1.3 Planning

All,
I am trying to create the following scenario, please make some suggestions:
I am trying to a make a number of specific columns read-only in data forms for only 4 of the periods. E.g. March, Jun, Sep and Dec. I understand I can't set provisions to users to only allow access to certain cells in shared services.
Please see a screen shot of what I am trying to achieve.

Many Thanks

HI thr,
First of all I want to tell you that, i was unable to look into your link coz I dont have the permission to access that page (Organization WebSense Blocked tht).
I belive there are two ways in which u can achieve the same:
1) Make a new version for this and restrtict the version for a particular period,
2) Add a column first, in column layout and then add member one by one by clicking on add members and then u can make it read only.
Hope this helps up to some extant.

How to distinguish the specific member alias in HP outline?

Because they use different calculation scripts, I need to recognize the member alias with two
different suffix:"-new" and "-old" in the same dimension. However, the @MATCH function could not meet
my requirement, because I need substitute ANY NUMBER of characters at the BEGINNING of the pattern.
Could any other function satisfy my requirement?
ps: here is the syntax of @MATCH which couldn't match my need.
@MATCH (mbrName|genName|levName, "pattern")
"pattern"
The character pattern to search for, including a wildcard character (* or ?).
? substitutes one occurrence of any character. You can use ? anywhere in the pattern.
* substitutes any number of characters. You can use * only at the end of the pattern.
To include spaces in the character pattern, enclose the pattern in double quotation marks ("").

UDA is the solution we are considering.
we also considered about using Share member to construct a virtual hierarchy.
Is there any function which could directly slove this problem?

[BPC 10] Member/property specific formatting

Hi,
I am trying to use specific member/property formatting in an input form in BPC 10. My account dimension has a property called format and I have used 3 different indicators, T,R and P.
In my input form I have activated the EPMFormattingSheet and under the dimension member/property formatting I have activated column formatting on specific member/property.
If I add one rule on my account dimension (such as FORMAT = P) the formatting is applied. However, I would like to have two different formats, once for FORMAT = R and one for FORMAT = P.
However, irrespective of the order, the second format is ignored.
Does anyone know how I can get two such formats working?
Thanks,
Arnold

Apparently property formatting only works for one member per property ...

How to exclude one or more than one member on report?

Post Author: izhar
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Hi all group members, I am working on BOXI R2. I have to ask that, How to exclude one or more than one member from the report. I know there is function of filter, through which we can see our desired members and other remaining will be excluded, but that's filter. In some of tools i have seen just do right click on a specific member and click on "Exclude" option to exclude the member. Suppose i have placed a Time dimension on the report and standing on "Month Level" which has data from 1, 2, ... 7,8, ... 11, 12 Now i just have to exclude member 7 from the report. Can any member guide me here. Regards, Izhar

Izhar,
If you run the report in "modify" mode, then you have two options
1) You can click on the "Show/Hide Filter Pane" button which opens up the "apply filter" pane. From there you go to your Data panel and grab, drag, and drop an item from the Data panel into the apply filter pane and provide a constant or select a value to filter in or out from your report.
2) You can highlight the column of data that you want to filter on, then click on the "Add Quick Filter" button. Using the List of Values menu you either select one or multiple items that you want to include in the report.

How to determine if shared member is descendant

I have an account dimension that has several different alternate hierarchies. All of the leaf level accounts are in the Base Accounts hierarchy; these leaf members are then shared in the other hierarchies. What I would like to do is build a calculated measure that performs a particular formula if the current member is a descendant of a specific member, say X. I have tried to use IsAncestor and also the Count(Intersect(Descendants())) formula, but it apparently doesn't consider the shared members at the bottom as a descendant of X. I have also tried adding a UDA to the members in question and using the IsUDA function, but again, I can't use UDAs on the shared members. Note this is an ASO cube being built in EIS. Is there a way to determine whether a shared member is a descendant of a particular member in a hierarchy? Thanks, Matt

In general, shared members need careful handling in MDX. A couple of mechanical observations and a question. Yup, there's a paradox at hand. The query SELECT Filter ( Descendants ( [Diet] ), IsAncestor ( [Product].CurrentMember, [Diet] ) ) on axis (0) FROM [Sample.Basic] returns an empty set, while the following formula only returns 1 for those shared versions that are in fact under the share, so the [100-20] under [Colas] does not get a 1. Count ( Intersect ( { [Accounts].CurrentMember }, Descendants ( [[[Account Parent 1]]], [Accounts].Levels(0) ), ALL ) ) Somehow, IsAncestor() returns FALSE even for members obtained as descendants of the Ancestor, while intersecting that member with the set of Descendants returns identity. But it's a different member somehow, since Intersect ( { [Accounts].Levels(0) }, Descendants ( [[[Account Parent 1]]], [Accounts].Levels(0) ), ALL ) only returns 1 instance of each member, not 2. Intersect(x,y, ALL) should return duplicates found in x when they exist. It seems like you can use Count(Intersect(Descendants())) for all "shared" versions of the member, but not the first, "non-shared" use of the member. Meanwhile, it would be great to avoid the set construction/counting overhead. OK, enough of mechanics. What I'd like to inquire about is what you're trying to do. Are you trying to factor out logic into the shared parents, and then combine it based on what set of ancestors a member has? That would be clever, but maybe there's another approach. If you are trying to have different formulas for different shares, keep in mind that since a shared member is a shared instance of a member, it should have the same formula to calculate itself regardless of the parent it is under (since it is under all parents equally and simultaneously. A little more insight into your goals could give us a path to a solution.

Unlocked iPhone 5 in Kenya

Where or from which country should I buy an unlocked iPhone 5 that I would be able to use in Kenya and all other parts of the world? I am dying to get one, just don't know where to buy it from? (many threads here say most are unlocked for specific countries -dont work in others, still wonder why). I travel quite often and would like to use it with local providers in different countries.
Thanks to assist and kind regards.

There are 2 supported carriers in India. Aircel and Airtel.
The activation process is no different or more complicated than it is with any other iPhone.
Your cousin needs to be aware that if you do this, it can only be serviced in the US and it will not work with LTE networks outisde of North America.

Error while slecting member from dimension

Hi All,
When I open the dimension list in BPC for Excel, I am getting the following error:
"A member could not be found in this search criteria."

Hello,
Did you receive the error when you try to search a specific member or just opening the dimension list?
You can try to run eTools->Client options, clck on Clear local application information. This will refresh the information for that dimension on your local machine. If this will not solve your problem, please try to reprocess that dimension with full process option for all applicatio.
Hope this can help you to solve the problem,
Mihaela

Help Unlocking Template File

I recently took on a project helping out a colleague who had a Web Designer totally mess up her business. He created a good site for her, but dropped the ball on hosting it.
Long story short, he gave her a disc with the files. The large site is created with Templates. When I go in and try to edit a template, DW says the file is locked and I can only VIEW the file because it is locked.
Does anybody out there have an idea as to how I can unlock the specific template files to make changes?

What I would recommend doing is if you like the template, detach the template and save a new one and base those pages off of it.
If you click on Modify->Templates->Detach from Template, DW will allow you to edit the template code as if you are editing a plain page.

Dimension Member Cross Validations

Hi,
Can we setup a combination validation between multiple Dimensions ? So that when users selects a member from one Dimension it automatically decide particular values only in another Dimension.
Example: Balance sheet Accounts members from Account Dimension should have combination with only one "0000" member of Cost centre Dimension, this is something like Cross Validation in Oracle Financials. So, user selects Balance sheet accounts from Account Dimension and then he finds only "0000" member in Cost centre Dimension list even though Cost Centre Dimension contains many children.
Thanks,
Ravi

There are usually two aspects of this question.
One is the "can I populate one drop-down based on a value selected in another dropdown". I saw this done at Cadbury in their IT planning application, but it involved a LOT of custom Java, and was very difficult to maintain. The cross-validation rules were maintained in separate custom text files and the planning app had to be recycled for any changes to take effect. They ended up walking away from this solution due to the maintenance issues.
The other aspect of this quesiton usually relates to security. "Can I have access to one account if I select a specific member, but then NOT have access to that account if I select another member?" This is similar to Oracle's cross-validation rules. Hyperion Planning doesn't support this type of security. Security for each dimension is maintained independent of other dimensions. Essbase itself doesn't have this limitation, however Planning does. Hopefully this will get addressed soon - it's usually in the top two or three complaints my clients have regarding Hyperion Planning.

Search for specific user in an Active Directory group

Hello,
I have an OU containing a number of Groups. Each group contains a number of members.
I'm currently retrieving the entire list of members from each group by searching for the members attrib for each group. This is not an ideal approach as the query execute time is a bit too long.
from what I can tell, the group class is group (opposed to a groupofuniquenames). Is there a way to query for the specific member?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply.
I have read the first post you gave, but not the second. I'm off to read that now.
My main concern is that I don't have access to the DN of the user in the member attrib. I have access to their CN and uid (which is indexed). From what I can recall from when I last updated this code, I couldn't create a wildcard search filter e.g.,:
(&(cn=All Scientists)(objectClass=Group)(member=CN=Albert Einstein*))
If that's correct and I require a DN, is there any way around this?
I was interested in the posixGroup and groupOfUniqueNames classes. I wasn't aware that these were available through Active Directory, but I see them listed in the AD schema (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms683908(VS.85).aspx).
If I'm correct, posixGroup would allow for a filter of (&(cn=All Scientists)(objectClass=posixGroup)(memberUid=AEinstein))
I'm not sure how typical it is to use the posixGroup class in AD and I'll have to check with my AD team before moving forward with this. But I wanted to get some more direction/ideas before asking them to create some posixGroup objects for me.
I'm now going to go and read the second post you linked, but I wanted to put the rest of my details out there.
Thanks again.

Search for single member in an Active Directory Group

Hello all,
I'm attempting to find a better method to search if a user is a member of a group in Active Directory. I currently retrieve the entire member attribute of the group.
I need to reduce the time of the query. I would like to be able to search for a specific member (user) of the group instead of retrieving the entire member list of the group.
I can post my current code if that would help.
I believe the default Active Directory group object is the ldap group. I know that there are posixGroup and groupOfUniqueNames ldap classes available, but I'm not sure if Active Directory has access to those classes.
Is my request possible using the group ldap object?

Thanks for the reply.

Coherence - MapListener with Filter by Member?

Is there a way to create a listener and have it filter data based on a specific member?
We have multiple storage enabled modes and I want to have a listener on each of them to listener for events specific to that node so that I can do something with the data for that specific one.
I have tried using a partition filter, but have not had any luck. Here is a snapshot of what I have:
 Filter partitionedFilter = null;
 DistributedCacheService service = (DistributedCacheService) cache.getCacheService();
 for (Member member : (Set<Member>) service.getCluster().getMemberSet()) {
 if ("CoherenceServer".equalsIgnoreCase(member.getRoleName())) { // TODO filter by hostname/ip as well
 PartitionSet partitions = service.getOwnedPartitions(member);
 partitionedFilter = new PartitionedFilter(AlwaysFilter.INSTANCE, partitions); // TODO what kind of filter do we use for the 1st arg? Tried several, none seem to work
 cache.addMapListener(listener, filter, false);
Whenever I run this listener I get one of two errors.
1.) it doesn't get any events or
2.) I get an error like this:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
at com.tangosol.util.filter.PartitionedFilter.evaluate(PartitionedFilter.java:149)

Hi
So I wrote your code as:
 NamedCache cache = CacheFactory.getCache("dist-test");
 for (int i = 1; i < 100; i++)
 cache.put(new Integer(i), new Person("aaa", i));
 System.out.println("finished loading");
 Filter query_filter = new AndFilter(new GreaterFilter("getId", 30),
 new LessFilter("getId", 60));
 // MapEventFilter filter = new
 // MapEventFilter(MapEventFilter.E_ALL,query_filter);
 MapEventFilter filter = new MapEventFilter(MapEventFilter.E_ALL,query_filter);
 cache.addMapListener(new AbstractMapListener()
 public void entryInserted(MapEvent evt)
 System.out.println("catched inserted event:" + evt + ":");
 public void entryUpdated(MapEvent evt)
 System.out.println("catched updated event:" + evt + ":");
 public void entryRemoved(MapEvent evt)
 System.out.println("catched removed event:" + evt + ":");
 }, filter, false);
 cache.put(50, new Person("ddd", 40));
 System.out.println("finished updating");And the output I got was:
finished loading
finished updating
+catched updated event:ConverterCollections$ConverterCacheEvent{SafeNamedCache updated: key=50, old value=Person@30e34726, new value=Person@195428dd}:+
as expected. Does your Person type implement a getter 'getId()'?
Thanks

Is there any way to unlock Iphone 4s in India?

Hey guys,i m planing to buy Iphone 4s from US..plzzz suggest me i should buy an unlock one or i should unlock in India..i stay in India..plz help me with this issue..

Remember that as long as the iPhone is 'factory unlocked' its usable anywhere regardless of where you buy it from.
In case you are wondering how much you'll save buying from US, you can check their prices.
Additionally I can add - a 16GB factory unlocked iPhone 4S will cost you as much in India as a 64GB factory unlocked iPhone 4S in US. (approx INR 46,000).
Its upto you in the end -
1. If you want to keep your iPhone OS updated via online all the time and buy/get free apps synced from itunes Store, best stick with a factory unlocked/carrier specific iPhone.
2. If you are not into the above and can get the apps and updates from 3rd party sources, you can get a cheap carrier specific iPhone from US and jailbreak it for use in India.
Apple will love you if you're no 1. and not if you're 2.
Simple
Peace!
