Using Workspace to access Essbase Application - HELP

I have created an application in Essbase. Is there anyway that I can register and import the app into Workspace; more specifically Performance Managment Architect or are Essbase applications completely isolated? Please help. The Essbase application is registered in Shared Service but that's as far as it will go.

How do I access the app through workspace? I have done the following steps:
- created the application in Essbase Administration console.
- Registered the app with shared services
- Exported the dimensions to ss
- provisioned the user to have a global role on ss of application and dimension creator and on the essbase app as application manager
- synchronized ss; logged onto workspace
The app created in EAS does not reflect.

How to use JAPI to Access Essbase 6.5

Do anyone knows How to use JAPI to Access Essbase 6.5?
I was told to install Enterprise Services 7.3.1.10.
But when I test eds samples, I can connect Essbase but can not get data from Essbase.
Need to change another Enterprise Services(I was told 7.3.1.10 is the latest version), or do some config in 7.3.1.10.
Thanks a lot in advance

Gee is correct. You will need to use EAS 7.x to add an analytic server. You will also have to do a few other tasks such as synch'ing security, etc.
Further, as you are not accessing the exact same version of Essbase as your version of EDS, there is a property setting you will have to change to be successful. In eds\7.1.3\bin, open essbase.properties and modify the server.olap.direct setting to set it to false. What this setting does is forces EDS to use it's own private set of C API files and to use them for all calls to Essbase. Otherwise, EDS will attempt to use pure Java calls to the server. Unfortunately, the pure Java calls were implemented in an 'evolutionary' manner so every Essbase version got more calls until sometime in the System 9 timeframe. By the time 9.3 shipped (and maybe before, I would have to check), all calls the server are pure Java and that property setting is no longer available.

Advice using workspace in custom ADF application

Submitted on behalf of Mike Rooney (who cannot access this forum):
We are analyzing Oracle BPM 11g beta and would like to understand existing resources for building worklist views, task status, bpm reports, etc, into our custom ADF 11g application. We want to create components on our ADF application pages that mimic these features provided by Oracle Workspace. Are there APIs, libraries or rich components that exist? We have reviewed Chapter 29 of the Oracle SOA 11g Developer Guide which discusses a programmatic solution for building a custom worklist client. We are wondering if there are any alternative rich components or declarative solutions for this functionality.
Any help or advice is appreciated!
-- Becky Kellinger

Sorry for the delay on this one.
Our 11g api is completely backward compatible with 10g. So the source we provide for the JSP based worklist app in 10g still works with 11g.
Starting with BPM PS1, we are also providing reusable taskflows for customers to create their own ADF app and reuse our worklist regions in that app.

How to let SAP user use SSO to access Application in DMZ?

Hi All,
Our J2EE application is running on a system in DMZ which can not be connected with LDAP. So I am wondering if it's possible to let SAP user use SSO to access our application.
After talking with my colleague I think the only way is to import SSO public key to our WebAS and create user in UME and then assign user to the corresponding public key, but anybody know where to download SSP verification file or is it allowed to download and import into another system at all?

Hi,
Take a look at this example, it uses property nodes to select tha
active plot and then changes the color of that plot.
If you want to make the number of plots dynamic you could use a for
loop and an array of color boxes.
I hope this helps.

Grant the Essbase application permission to user in Shared Services

Hi,
We got a problem in granting the Essbase permission to user using Shared Services. We are using Hyperion 9.3.1.
(1) We created an Essbase application + database through Essbase Administration Console, say TBC.Sales.
(2) Provision the Essbase "Server Access" + Essbase Application "Read" roles to a user.
(3) In Essbase Admin Console, we "Refresh Security from Shared Services".
However, the user still cannot see the Essbase Database in SmartView. Does anyone know how to fix the problem?

The problem is fixed with Essbase 9.3.1.3.0.5.

Using IBM Tivoli Access Manager to Secure Tuxedo Services

Wondering if anybody has any experience using 'IBM Tivoli Access Manager for e-business' to perform tuxedo service authorization ?
Is there an out-of-the-box integrated solution available or does one have to basically build a security service that use the Tivoli Access Manager APIs to determine if the user is authorized to invoke service?
Thanks,

Hi,
I followed the steps of establishing SSO using TAM for OBIEE application.
Below is the piece of code that i had inserted in the "instanceconfig.xml" to enable SSO:

<Auth>
<SSO enabled="true">
<ParamList>

<Param name="IMPERSONATE"

</ParamList> 
<LogonUrl>http://pkmslogin</LogonUrl>
<LogoffUrl>http://pkmslogout</LogoffUrl>
</SSO>
</Auth>
My credential store file look Like on below
<sawcs:credential type="usernamePassword" alias="impersonation">
<sawcs:username>USER</sawcs:username>
<sawcs:password>password</sawcs:password>

In the above code i am trying to get the userID of a User through the header of the application's URL, who has been already been authenticated by Windows desktop Authentication mechanism .
but then i try creating a junction using TAM and access the application through the junction i still get the logon page of OBIEE application...
Can any one help me out in this issue..
Thanks in Advance...

Sending a url parameter in web Access 2013 application

So we are using a sharepoint Access 2013 application form to enter in data that then uploads to a backend db. The form essentially is a series of reports with a report date and ID, etc. What we are trying to do is find a way to pass a url parameter that
will open up our Access 2013 site to a specific report. Currently if you use the URL in the address box its just a default URL that would open up at the default page of our application. We want it more precise so people don't have to click and
search for the specific report but that it just opens up to the report in question. Does anyone know how to do this? Please let me know if you need more information.

Effort to bump this up by giving more info:
So I have a sharepoint site with the url like this:
//Microsoft.445(various).sharepoint.com/reports/default.aspx#Tile=History
So this would take us to the Report site and go directly to the History tab of the page. For this example it would be a running list of reports from say the last month going back 5 years. When you go to this site it defaults to the newest report
so say a report from July 31st and lets say it has a report id of 12335. What I am looking to do is be able to go to a specific report id so lets say I want to give a link for people to go to a report from May 5th with a report id of 12201.
You would think following simple language conventions I would be able to simply add in to the URL above an addition of &ReportID=12201 This does not work however. I've also tried another example I saw in which you add in a where clause
so it would be an addition of Where==reported=12201 This also did not work. Whenever I enter these in it still just defaults to the July 31st report. I cannot seem to find a way to get it to go to a specific report.
Any suggestions?

SQL to Access Essbase data

I have a user who would like to use SQL to Access Essbase cube data. Any suggestions? Thanks!

The user could just use the MaxL interface and an interactive report script. It accomplishes the same goal of returning a result set.

Accessing Essbase cubes within a HP application using Essbase add-in

Hi All,
I've been told in the past by Oracle Support personnel that accessing the Essbase cubes within a Planning application using the MS Excel Essbase add-in is "a very bad idea" and that such an approach "is not supported\recommended by Oracle due to potential issues" (which the support person could not tell me about).
Unfortunately, I have not found any information in the Planning documentation which supports or not this recommendation.
As such:
1. Could anyone point me in the right direction in terms of finding out whether it is recommended\supported (or not) for users to access Essbase cubes within a Planning application using the Essbase add-in?
2. Has anyone ever experienced issues accessing Essbase cubes within a Planning application using the MS Excel Essbase add-in? If yes, what were these issues??
PS: We are on v9.3.1.x of Essbase\Planning and will be moving over to v11.1.2.x in the next 6-8 months.
Thanks in advance,
JBM

Hi Rob,
Thank you for your prompt & informative response.
On the topic of metadata, I am aware of what happens when changes are made directly to an Essbase outline which falls under a Planning application without going following the proper method ... and I agree that it ain't pretty! :-)
On the topic of locking\sending data to the Essbase cubes within a Planning application, I also understand that it works quite well in as much as the data is saved in the appropriate intersections within the Essbase cube, as permitted by the security assigned to the user.
I was more interested in whether such a practice of locking\sending data directly to Essbase cubes within a Planning application was actually encouraged or discouraged by Oracle.
And please correct me if I am wrong but from what you are saying, it seems to me that it is neither as:
- on one hand, the "Essbase Write" HSS feature allows administrators to create security groups and assign this type of provisioning to security groups in question;
- on the other hand, Oracle Support seems to be verbally discouraging such a practice for no real reasons related to technological limitations;
The problem that I have is that because some users at our site know that they can lock\send data to Essbase cubes within a Planning application and as a result, not only want to get us to grant similar lock\send access to other users but are now more reticent than ever to move away from the Essbase add-in as a means to load\submit data to a Planning application. And that's why I was after some formal recommendation from Oracle as to whether it is a recommended practice or not.
Anyway, any suggestions would be much appreciated.

JBM

Java CDF hangs up Essbase application - Kindly help

Hi!
I compiled the below java code which i am using to run a batch script from a calculation script using RUNJAVA.
import java.*;
import java.io.*;
import com.hyperion.essbase.calculator.*;
public class IRUN {
public IRUN() {
public static void main(com.hyperion.essbase.calculator.Context ctx, String[] args)
     try{
          Runtime.getRuntime().exec ("cmd /c start E:\\Hyperion\\ISIS_Scr\\email_users.bat");
     catch(Exception e){
*After I run the calculation script which simply says RUNJAVA IRUN; the batch script executes successfully and I get an email from the batch script. But after that if I stop my application and try starting it again I get an error saying "Unable to load database [Basic]". The application log gives the below error:*

*Please note that I registered the IRUN class's main function as a global function instead of local to an application. I consistently end up screwing applications once I try using this java function in multiple applications.*
Thanks!
Arun

I managed to fix this problem. The batch script which was being called from the Java class did not have an exit statement at the end. I included that and the problem with application crashing got resolved. It looks like maybe the script is locked in memory or something like that.
The exact reason as to how this would affect .esm file in the database is still not clear to me. Any clarifications would be great.
Thanks,
Arun

Accessing peripheral devices using NetWeaver Mobile 7.1 application

Hi,
I'm developing an occasionally connected application for handheld devices using NetWeaver Mobile 7.1. From my application how can I access other peripheral devices (for example: WebCam) to capture the pictures.
Suggest me the ways to access the peripheral devices (WebCam) from my NetWeaver Mobile application.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
DVR.

Hi Vinodh,
Please refer to SAP Note: 1057759 for getting the list of peripheral input/output device drivers supported in SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1
You can also go through the help portal link on how to use peripheral devices in mobile application.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile71/helpdata/en/8F/0B674240449C60E10000000A1550B0/frameset.htm
In case you want to use another peripheral device like Webcam not supported, then you will have to take care of this in the application code itself. You can use JNI etc to talk to drivers like in a normal java application.

Nipun

Essbase Application Access Rights

Hi,
I have a essbase application without planning, and try yo give read rights to a user via Shared Service , but without giving essbase admin rights, user can't see application, i give to user read on application and server access on essbase, unfortunately it doesn't work, i want that user can see one application and read data from it, how can i solve this.

As said in earlier post, you should sync the security from sharedservices to essbase.
once you give server access and read access, you need to sync user.
You can sync that particular user alone rather than syncing all the users. use the following maxl command to sync single user
alter user <username> sync security with all application;
if you are still facing issue, check what access it is showing in essbase (not in shared services).

Accessing new application using direct Hyperion Planning web client URL

I added new Hyperion Planning application. From standard workspace URL [http://demodrive:19000/workspace/index.jsp], I can now access new application.
However, when I use the direct Hyperion Planning web client URL [http://demodrive:8300/HyperionPlanning/LogOn.jsp], new application is not included as one of available applications to select. What am I missing?

Hi,
I find it a little strange that you can see the planning application through workspace but not directly, I would usually expect problems the other way round.
One thing to check for if that you don't have multiple planning instances, check in the configuration utility, you could have an instance pointing to one set of apps and another instance pointing to a different set of apps.
Though saying this I would expect workspace to show the same apps as going directly.
Cheers
