Upgrage from HFM 9.2 to 9.3.3- does it require fresh 9.3.3 installation

Hi,
Could you please provide me the information like
1. upgrade from HFM 9.2 to 9.3.3 requires of fresh installation of 9.3.3 migrating all the components?
2. Applying some pathes will work?
3. Please provide some provide some importent steps.
4. Is there any forum where it will provide the information about upgradation process from one version to another version.
Could you please help providing the above information.
Thanks,

Hi Diego,
to run 4.3.0 on CRS you need to upgrade rommonA and B with a version ≥ 2.01 beforehand.
Please note we officially support a PIE upgrade N+2. I.e. A direct upgrade from 3.9.2 to 4.3.0 is not supported officially.
It may work, though.
The alternatives you have is either Turboboot or an interim step e.g. 3.9.2 to 4.1.2, then 4.1.2 to 4.3.0.
But nevertheless you have to upgrade rommon first.
Regards
Frank

Drill Back from HFM works for one year, not another

Hello,
We are on FDM and HFM 11.1.2.1 and I was doing some reasearch in the system today and for some reason in all periods that were loaded during 2011 in this version (Aug-Dec) I am able to drill back to the FDM source data. However, if I go into 2012 and try a drill back for Jan or Feb it does not work and I get the below error message. I'm guessing there must be a setting I'm missing somewhere, but can't figure out why the year would make a difference here.
Error: No Locations were found matching the passed intersection values. Please verify:
1) that the target system (originating the drillback) is properly configured;
2) that the FDM POVs have not been retroactively modified or compromised.
Thank you,
Jason

Yes, that is what the problem was. After talking with Oracle support apparently when you upload new periods via the Excel template it does not update the tpovperiodadapter table, which is needed for the drill back from HFM to work. In order to fix this I had the DBA go in and manually update the 4 fields (see below) for the 2 periods we had already loaded for 2012 and all is working now. I also went back and deleted all of the other future periods and added them manually via the FDM web interface.
The table has the following collumns:
PeriodKey
IntSystemKey
PeriodTargetM
YearTarget
Period Key would be the period date
IntSystemKey would be the adapter system code that was used to load the data to HFM
PeriodTargetM would be the target Month in HFM
YearTarget would be the target year in HFM
Example:
PeriodKey - 1/31/2012 (format needs to be the same as what's currently in the database)
IntSystemKey - FM11X-G5-E
PeriodTargetM - Jan
YearTarget - 2012

Error when Reversing metadata from HFM

Hi,
I'm getting this error when i try to reverse metadata from HFM.
"com.hyperion.odi.common.ODIHAppException: Error occurred while loading driver."
I already try the suggestion in this forum including
Cause
The Java Library Path of the HFMDriver.dll is missing in Wrapper configuration file.
Solution
1. Backup and edit the ODI_HOME\tools\wrapper\conf\snpsagent.conf and include the following entry in Java Library Path section :
wrapper.java.library.path.2=../drivers
After adding it will look as follows:
# Java Library Path (location of Wrapper.DLL or libwrapper.so)
wrapper.java.library.path.1=../tools/wrapper/lib/
wrapper.java.library.path.2=../drivers
Note: HFMDriver.dll is usually present in <odi_home>\oracledi\drivers folder. If it is located in different path, then appropriate location should be referred. Also numbering convention like wrapper.java.library.path.1, wrapper.java.library.path.2 has to be in a incremental manner and no duplicates nor gaps should exist.
2. Save the file and recreate the ODI Agent Service with the new configuration parameters as the classes are loaded during its creation and re-test the issue.
But it still errors. Does anyone know another solution?
Btw, i'm using ODI 10.1.3.5, and the HFM's version 9.3.1
Those two are not on the same machine. And i've already installed HFM Client on ODI Machine.
Thanks in advance.

Ok, i've solved the problem above. Looks like i forgot to define driver folder in PATH variable.
But now i got another error.
Looks like the problem lies in HFM now.
It's said that Server/Cluster incorrectly configured. But, in my HFMClient i've successfully access the application.

***Balance sheet Report book got Disappeared from HFM Explorer***

Hi All,
Actually one of my user is able to open the balance sheet report book from hfm workspace and run the report till last month.
No one has removed any of his access.He is able to see all the other reports except Balance sheet report this month.As this is a month end for us it is very very important for me to provide the report book.Even i refreshed his securities but no use.
I am really battling with my head with no result.
Am really thankful to every one please do reply me the solution.
Regards,
Vinod

Can others see this report? If so, is this the same user that is having problems with smartview?
https://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=10912726
Do you use groups in ADF or within HFM? has any of his groups changed in provisioning?
Do you connect to more than one AD in Shared services? If so HFM looks for IDs in each Directory in the order they are listed. If someone entered the same user ID in another domain, HFM will use that one instead of Alex's true ID and have wrong provisioning.
Is the balance sheet report in the list and he cannot open it? Then check to see if he has the preview POV on, perhaps the POV is defaulting to an invalid setting.
If the balance sheet is missing from the list of reports, then check the permissions for that report.

Upgrade path from HFM 9.3.1.4 to Fusion 11.1.2

Is there an upgrade path from HFM 9.3.1.4 to Fusion 11.1.2? I see in the EPM 11.1.1.3 config guide that there was an upgrade section, but this seems to be missing from the 11.1.2 config guide. How do we move an existing application from 9.3.1.4 to 11.1.2? Does it have to be rebuilt via extracts and loads? Don't we lose information that way? (audit logs, reconsolidate, etc.)

I have heard there is no upgrade utility for 9.3.1 to 11.1.2. You would need to recreate the app. There will soon be an upgrade available for 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.1. Not sure on the timing, but the last time I spoke with support they were saying sometime in Nov/Dec.

Extended Analytics - Is it possible to extract data from HFM to MS Access through an UDL (OBDC) file?

Hello,
I am trying to extract data from HFM, using Extended Analytics, to MS Access through an UDL (OBDC) file but it displays the following error:
"error occurred while connecting to the database"
I've followed these steps:
1. Create a blank MS Access database (.mdb format)
2. Create an .UDL file which connects to MS Access database:
      - Provider: Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
      - Connection: Linked to the .mdb database created in step 1.
      - Give "ReadWrite" permissions.
3. Test .UDL file connection successfully.
4. Create DNS with Extended Analytics DNS Configuration tool.
5. In Extended Analytics (HFM), once selected the new DNS and extract it displays the error commented before.
¿Do you know how i can solve this issue?
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,

Hello Anjum Ara,
Thank you for your response.
I don't understand how to add my database SID to tnsnames.ora. (I already found the file but i don't know how to add new database SID)
I have created one MS Access database in "C:\TEST.mdb" and i want to connect Extended Analytics to it.
How i have to add this database into tnsnames.ora file?
Thank you in advance,
Kind regards

ODI periodic values from HFM

Hi,
I need help regarding ODI. Now I am trying to get data from HFM to Oracle database. Everything is running ok, however I have noticed one issue, some of the values from HFM are not transferred to database. Interesting thing is that if I choose view filter for data source "YTD" - values are correct on target side , however with "Periodic"- it have not transferred everything, some of the values on target side are missing, can anyone suggest something regarding this issue?
In addition this happens only in case if on source side (HFM) YTD value is 0 for period which transferred.
e.g.
YTD :
MAR = +10
APR = 0
Periodic:
MAR = 10
APR = -10
APR value is not transferred.
Thank you.

Hi - unfortunately you cannot do that in the current KM. We faced the same issue and logged the issue with Oracle. Its being considered as an enhancement not as a bug. So we have to wait for future releases. As a solution for this we created TaskLists in HFM and extracted data.

Migrating from HFM 4 to 11

Hi all
Is it possible to migrate directly from HFM 4 to 11?
Thanks
Herman

Yes.
The EPM portfolio has general restrictions which say to move up to 9.2 as an intermediary step. This isn't absolutely necessary with HFM. The schema upgrade should work. There is a good write up on the general conditions here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_install.pdf

Data extract from HFM

Hi,
There is a need to get TB data from HFM in a format that's got account info as debits and credits(for a journal load to Peoplesoft), and has a control field at the end, how can this be best achived.
Regards

The ghost numbers I am referring to are ones generated in HFM. For example on an income statement if you load $1,000 as the January YTD Balance and load $0 as the February YTD Balance, HFM will create a ghost (gray) $-1000 to make the February YTD Balance truly Zero. I need to somehow extract that -1000 amount to make a true periodic data file that will be loaded into Hyperion Planning. Thanks!

Cannot extract dimension .csv files from HFM to be able to use maploader

Hi All!
We are in the middle of implementing FDM at a financial consolidation project. During this build we would like to use FDM to load HFM with data.
To help the users we would like to offer them the Maploader.xml which is provided in the mapping templates.zip
To prepare this maploader file we need to extract the dimension data from HFM into csv files and load these into the maploader.
Can anyone help me with extracting the .csv files? The script we use creates the csv files but does not load them with the metadata.
Maybe it is possible to get the right script? Or is this already available in FDM (can't find it)?
Thank you in advance for your support!!

Anyone got any tips or directions to solve this?

Planning & HFM: integration practises + drillback from HFM to Planning?

Hi,
I small question appeared when we were planning a new application with HFM, Planning and possibly FDM.
Question 1:
What is the best solution to use for data integration between several Planning applications and HFM?
Planning would be used to create the budget, make investment calculations etc. and then push the consolidated information into the HFM.
Integration dataflows:
EBS <-> Planning -> FDM -> HFM
EBS <-> FDM <-> HFM
Question 2:
Is it possible to drill-back the consolidated data from HFM -> FDM -> Planning?
Question 3:
Is FDM the most suitable solution in these cases?
Thank you,
Nicklas

As long as the user has access in FDM and is able to view the data for the location, this should work.

Drill down from HFM forms

Extract derived data from HFM

Hi All!
Is it possible to extract derived values from HFM using LKM HFM Data to SQL?
By 'derived' I mean gray colored values in HFM data forms. For example, data from currency exchange rate accounts.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Edited by: Alex Lasker on 05.04.2010 7:13

Did you ever get an answer to your question about extracting (not copying) derived values? We are running into the same issue when trying to load HFM data into Planning/Essbase. Since none of those derived values exist in the data extract our Planning totals don't tie-out between it and HFM.

Extended Analytics for star schema creation from HFM application

What could be the possible reason for it?
Also can someone please provide any suitable references or links to learn this EA for star schema creation.
Thanks,
Ravi Agrawal

The error you pasted here is incomplete. Look in the system messages and you will find more complete information that will lead you to the error's cause. Very often this is an error in the database, though sometimes it is caused by a metadata member with an invalid character. To determine whether it is data or metadata that causes the error, you could generate a schema with metadata only and see if the error appears.

XREF data to/from HFM

Does anyone know if Hyperion Planning can ‘xREF’ data to/from HFM?

No. You cannot xref data to or from HFM to Hyperion Planning. HFM does not store its data in a "cube". Instead, it is stored in a relational database. The XREF function only works between cubes.
We solve this problem using a feature of HFM called "Extended Analytics". This feature basically takes all of your HFM data and dumps it into a star schema. We then build a cube out of this star schema (we call this the "intermediate" cube). We then populate our Planning cube with data from the intermediate cube.
This is a one-way only solution. In other words, we can update Planning with HFM data, but we can't update HFM with Planning data. The benefit of this solution over just exporting data from HFM is that we can pull calculated values, and values from custom dimensions. (something that isn't easy without some extra toolset)
Hope this helps,
- Jake
