Wrong sign in Hyperion report

Hi,
I am facing a strange issue with Hyperion reports. In the report created through FR studio I am pulling a particular balance sheet account. When I pull that same account through smartview, it shows up correctly as a negative amount, but surprisingly in the report it shows up as a positive amount!
Any suggestions to resolve this issue?
Thanks.

Hello-
Are you sure you have assigned the correct formatting for the cells to take into account for negative value? You can check it by opening the report in reporting studio.
Thanks!

Discount are reflecting with wrong sign in COPA Reports..

HI,
We have checked the +/- sign in one of the conditon type which is assigned to Value fields VV210(Discount and markdowns).
Now due to this check mark values of discount from Billing document are reflecting as negarive in COPA reports which is wrong. For the Debit memo's all values should reflect in COPA as positive, but for discount it is reflecting as negative.
So now we are having almost 400+ invoices which are having this issue. So how can we correct this sign in COPA. Is there any way that can help us to change the sign from - to +.
Kindly suggeset...
Regards....

Hyperion Reports - HFMCurrency function error when expanding rows

Im using Hyperion Reports 7.2.On the report in the production environment, Ihave a cell containing a HFMCurrency function with a conditionalformatting: In<<HFMCurrency("Grid1", 5, A, 1)>>Thousands Conditional formatting applied: IF Member NameValue contains Contributions OR IF Member NameValue contains Parent OR IF Member NameValue equals Proportion THEN ReplaceString Value : In USD Thousands The report contains multiple expandable rows. Everytime a row isexpanded it returns this value with an error on the cell containingthe formula: In Error: Unable to get cell valueThousands It's weird because the error on the report does not persist inthe development environment. Any insights will be helpful. You mayreply on this thread or send directly your comments to:[email protected] Thanks. 

If you use this function/syntax on the row without expansions does it work? If so, I believe the issue has to do with the syntax. You might need to use the current keyword to make the function dynamic (for example, <<HFMCurrency("Grid1", current,A,1)>>). When you write the formula with a fixed value for rows, it's not dynamic (for the expanded rows). Although, I wouldn't expect you to get an error, just the wrong description. To narrow it down, I would try the function on a row w/o expansions or conditional formatting. Then add expansions. If that works, add back the conditional formatting.

Invalid database schema for product hyperion reporting and analysis

I tried to re-configure the BI core service to a new database
But I get the message "invalid database schema for product hyperion reporting and analysis"
The database is a restore of a production backup on a different MSSQL2005 server.
I can not believe its really a sql schema matter.
Does anyone know whats wrong?

You cannot restore a BI+ database from backup...It is somewehere in the doc. There a re lots of references to the old server and config in the BI+ tables and you d need to edit/remove some files on the file server too. There is a doc available to do that but its far from simple.
Best way is to export the content of your repository, configure a new DB and then reimport the content.
If you re really stuck, drop me an email and ill send you that doc. I think ive still got it.

Error while running batch in Hyperion Reports

Has anybody run accross this error while trying to run a batch in Hyperion Reports:
Unexpected Error creating query to datasource in createCubeViews:
The book the batch is running is big...

Have you ever successfully scheduled a batch? Make sure the scheduled batch name does not contain an ampersand "&" symbol or an apostrophe/single tick symbol. Those cause batches to error out for us.

Hyperion Reporting and Analysis - DAS, IR and Job Services Replication..

Dear All,
We are on Hyperion System 9.3.1 on Windows box and Repository in Oracle 10g Database. We have around 300 Interactive scheduled jobs.
When these jobs are getting executed Hyperion Services are getting hang and In logs we are getting "Process out of memory..".
In order to overcome "Process out of Memory.. Exiting" error. We need to replicate DAS, Interactive Reporting and Job Services on the same machine.
I am doing Hyperion's IR, DAS, JOB Services Replication in Development environment. To achieve the same I performed the following tasks :
# I have installed and configured Hyperion System 9.3.1 below components on MS Windows XP professional SP2 and Repository in Oracle 10g database.
Hyperion Shared Services 9.3.1
Hyperion Reporting and Analysis BI+ Services
Hyperion Reporting and Analysis UI+ Services
Every thing was configured fine.
# To replicate the IR, DAS and Job Services. I started the Hyperion Reporting and Analysis BI+ Setup on the same machine then I select IR, DAS and Job Services.
# Next I started Configuration Utility. Which ask me to configure Database. I selected the same database which I used for BI Services previously. Database Configuration was successful.
# I changed the Port as below
Core Services to 7801 instead of 6801
Chaged the port for Job Service 7796 instead of 6796.
# Next started Service Configurator where System was showing one more Job Service (JF2_<hostname>) in Remote Service Configurator. And in Local Service Configurator System was showing new BI and DAS. Then I configured Data Sources in DAS.
# Started the Services.
Next I started the Scheduled Jobs. It is taking same time as earlier. In logs it is showing that Only JF2_<hostname> Service is getting used. System is not using JF1_<HOSTNAME> anymore.
I have few query regarding this.
1) Why Configuration Utility didn't ask for GSM host and Port? Do I need to configure it manually?
2) I have not chaged the port for DAS and IR Services. my concern is regarding port usage by new DAS and IR Services ? Do I need to configure it or It will be managed by system itself?
Please show me the direction. Any help would be highly appreciable.
Regards,
Manmohan Sharma

We have replicated the Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Services by changing the port number of Replicated Services to non-default port.
Services are working fine.

Manmohan Sharma

Hyperion Reporting Studio 9.3.1

Any idea on how to import batch reports from previous Hyperion Reports. Currentyl, I have to import one report at a time and it is time consuming. Also, I would to know how to set up Web Forms and Data Grid in Workspace 9.3.1

I was wondering if you might know what my problem is! (Well hyperion related anyway).
I built an entire development environment for our 9.3.1 systems, including Financial Reporting. I attempted to export / import an entire zip folder full of reports; however, nothing happens on the import! When you supply the file, the status meter starts working and then it quickly ends without any success or failure message. Additionally, when I look in the folders, none of the reports have been imported. At first I thought the issue might have been related to the size of my zip file as I exported a large number of folders/reports. Unfortunately, I still receive the same issue when I try importing a much smaller file of ~10 reports.
Any thoughts as to what the issue might be?
Thanks!

Hyperion Reports 2.6 updating substituion variables in a prompt

I'm running into a problem where I update a substitution variable on my Essbase server and then go to pull a report in Hyperion Reports v2.6.The report is set up to prompt the user to choose a member from the Time dimension, I have the default set to use the substitution variable 'cur_week'.The problem is when I update the variable on Essbase and pull the report, the report defaults to the old variable value. The only way I can get it to display the new value is to restart the Report Server.Has anyone experienced this? Do you know of a way to work around this?Thanks in advance

Decided to go with a batch script to restart the service on Report Server. Combined with a MaxL script to update the subvariables. Run both back to back and it seems to work.Not the ideal solution, but as long as I don't kick off while a report is running, it seems like it will work.

Table of Contents In Hyperion Reports

 Hi, I setup a Hyperion Report with location used for pages. When I print report, I get the expected result of each page being a location I specified, and in the order I specified. I'd like to distribute same report as pdf, but incorporate a table of contents based on page definition in report. Page 1 would have my table of contents, page 2 would have the first location, page 3 the second location, etc. Is this feasible? Thanks in advance for your help. -Carl

Hi Carl Can I ask you something before I give you the feedback on thisone. Do you use the system built in table of contents or did youdesign one? (1) If you have designed the table of contents I would sayit is feasible to incorporate them in pdf formataccordingto your order in the report bookBUT(2) If you use the system built in table of contents the orderwill be determined by the number of your reports you add inthe report book

Hyperion Reports 7.25 Report Runs 10 - 20 Times Slower in FR 11.1.1.3

I exported a Report from Hyperion Reports V7.2.5 and Imported it into Financial Reporting V11.1.1.3 via Workspace. When I run the report in Financial Reporting Studio 11.1.1.3 or Workspace 11.1.1.3 it is 10 to 20 times slower.
Note, no changes have been made to the Report structure or the structure of the Essbase database that is being used as a datasource.
However, the Essbase Version is now 11.1.1.3. It was 7. Also, the server hosting the Financial Reporting 11.1.1.3 application is a VMWare Server - the server hosting Hyperion Reports V7.2.5 was a physical server not VMWare.
The only thing I did notice that was different in the report is when you highlight the entire grid and right-click to view Data Optimization Settings - there is an option in 11.1.1.3 that says "Essbase Queries use MDX" "Combined Queries with Member". This doesn't exist in Hyperion Reports V7.2.5.
Has anyone experience a simlar issue with this extreme performance degradation? I am using more robust servers with faster cpu's and more memory.
I did play around with the tcp/ip settings as recommended in a version 9.x support document, but this did nothing.

Thanks for replying Natesh.
Unfortunately I don't have a physical server to play around with. This was one of my concerns with using VMWare.
I didn't make any product configurations for Hyperion Reports V7.2.5. The only configurations I made were for tcp/ip settings.
I did try to run a V 7.2.5 report against Essbase 11 and it ran just as fast as it did against Essbase 7. This definitely leads me to believe the slower performance is related to Financial Reporting V11.1.1.3 or something on the server - note the performance issue is only on reports that retrieve large data sets. For all smaller reports there is no issue.

Hyperion Reports 11.1.2.2 database login issue

HI ,
We are on Hyperion reports v11.1.2.2 , for some reason whenever user logged in and try to pull the report ..it is prompting for database user credentials for first time(first report).
After that it wont ask for any other report. How to avoid this prompt?? ..is there anyway that we can save password forever, ...so it wont ask for each login. or is there anyway that we can pass the login credenitials of workspace to even for database.
Did anyone faced this issue.?? Can you please post your experineces on this..
Thanks

Hi,
11.1.1.3 and 11.1.2.3 are totally different in many aspects. Again there are various factors which decide the performance like OS, DB, App Server, Web Server and Component level. So its hard to forecast the performance even before we get in to the the environment. In general unlike your 11.1.1.3 there are so many performance tuning parameters we have in 11.1.2.3.

Text file imported into Hyperion report BQY

Hi,
I would like to know the internal process how Hyperion works in the scenario
1. The Hyperion report query in select * from emp
2. A text file containing list of emp ids has been imported into the report bqy
I believe the query which gets fired on the underlying database is still select * from emp. If so, is it true that the result set of the "select * from emp" then is filtered in the Hyperion server memory based on the emp ids listed in the text file which is embedded in teh report bqy?
I am using Hyperion 9.3.0.
Any input would be appreciated.
Regards,
Suresh

Try using the package UTL_FILE.

Using a prompt in Grid1 also changes Grid2 in Hyperion Reports

In Hyperion Reports, I have a report that is made up of twogrids. The first grid points to an income statement database,and the second grid points to a balance sheet grid. Bothgrids have the same column sets, but different row sets because ofthe different databases. What I am trying to do use a promptto change the members in the columns for both grids. Currently, I have two sets of prompts for the report, one foreach grid - each asking for the same selections. This makesthe report prompts repetitive. Is there a way to have Grid2pull the same members that Grid1 prompts for - similar to the"Same As Member Selection In" function that works for themembers within a single grid? Thanks

Hi Kahlua17, You can define your grids' POVs to "Current PointView". It will inherit the propertie values on the main reportPOV values and display the result you want based on the values youhave set. Ruel

Sign problem in Report

Hi Folks,
I have a problem in reporting.
We are getting a data from flat file and loaded in to ICELIM cube and later that will pull into Managerial Consolidation Cube.
P99T is account member and its ACCTYPE is EXP and its a parent member.
We created a one report based on ICELIM cube its showing negative values for the member P99T. Created another report based on Managerial Consolidation Cube, Here the same member showing Positive values.
Can any one please let me know what is the problem is?
I need Positive values in Both reports.
Regards,
G. Saida Reddy

Hi vadim,
Thank you for you response,
Recently I take over this project, Previously one guy is handled all those things.
But if "Descendants of P99T is Applicant count=EXP(ACCTYPE), FT=EXP(ACCTYPE), Applicant Rate= EXP(ACCTYPE)" then P99T is meaningless - how can you aggregate count, FT and rate????
Can you please let me know the what is the exact point your are saying from above.
we have positive signs for base members of ICELIM and Managerial Consolidation.
Now it is not possible to change moving data from ICELIM to Managerial Consolidation.
can you please let me now the issue for sign in the report?

G. Saida Reddy
