• Build dimension using the rules file

  I use Oracle Hyperion worm 9.3.1. So that the dimensions of formatting built using the rule file, I came across the 'JOIN' and 'Create Join using' options. Can someone help me to know the difference between these two options?

  The documentation explains the difference with examples, now I was going to post the link, but I might as well post the info from the link.

  Join the fields

  You can join several fields into one. The new field is given the name of the first field in the join. For example, if a data source has separate fields for the number of product (100) and the family of products (-10), you must join the fields (100-10) before loading in the Sample.Basic database.

  Create a field by joining fields

  You can reach the fields by placing fields joined in a new field. This procedure leaves intact original fields. Creating a field is useful if you need concatenate the fields of the data source to create a member.

  For example, if a data source has separate fields for the number of product (100) and the family of products (-10), you must join the fields (100-10) before loading in the Sample.Basic database. If, however, you want to keep the two existing fields in the data source, you can create a field (100-10) using a join. The data source includes now all three fields (100, - 10 and 100-10).

• Formula of member using loading rules

  Hello.
  We would charge a member and its related formula of a file .txt, using a rule. The formula refers to a member in the sketch that contains a slash (/) in his name.
  I have attached the name of the Member in quotation marks (""); However, the name of the Member and its formula loaded without quotation marks and an error returns during the audit of the schema.
  Here is an example; We would charge Member Yes and its formula ("AccountB' - ' Account/C'): the loading of file is:
  
  * Member name *; * Member formula *.
  Yes; "AccountB' - ' account/C;
  
  The Member is responsible, but members in the formula are loaded without quotes; Thus, the formula of Member is not validated.
  I was wondering if it is possible to load member formulas, keeping the quotation marks in the formula.
  Thanks in advance

  You must use a backslash escape character before each quote and the symbol of the division to make them stay

• Dimensions using load loading 11.1.2 outline utility

  Hi all
  
  I tried to use the contour Load utility to load dimensions in Planning (11.1.2). The file is OutlineLoad.cmd.template. I tried running that but does not work. So I remaned to OutlineLoad.cmd and tried, but it still does not work. Were there changes to the how to use it in 11.1.2?
  
  See you soon,.

  11.1.2 directories structure is very confusing and totally changed, it honestly feels a project of work in progress and not yet completed.
  The utilities are all in \Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1
  This assumes you did a default installation.

  Using the utility is set to:-http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin/ch05s02s03.html

• Creation of multiple dimensions with the rule files

  Hello
  Is it posible to create multiple dimensions using rules file. I managed to create 1 Dimension using the rules file, but I need to create two dimension using rules (customer and Distribution_Channel) file.
  Help, please.
  
  -Amit

  Hello

  You need the files in separate rules for the construction of separate dimensions.
  You can use the same metadata file well.

  So, you must create 3 files of rules for the 3 dimensions.

• Essbase error when you try to change the dimension through the rule files

  Hi Knowledgebank.
  
  I'm new to Essbase. I'm trying to change my dimension through the rule files and Iam getting error (Dimension build setings).
  
  Example:
  
  My current dimensiion is:
  
  MARKET TOTAL
  ASIA
  Singapore
  CHINA
  HONG KONG
  NORTH AMERICA
  SOUTH AMERICA
  
  
  I am trying to add a few new countries of SOUTH AMERICA and I can't. Is there a step by step guide to achieve this?
  I'm following the documentationi but still errors.
  
  Help on this is going to help me go further.
  
  Note:-I am able to load the data successfully.

  'TOTAL MARKET' 'COUNTRY'--> header I have jump while loading
  'SOUTH AMERICA' 'BRAZIL '.
  'SOUTH AMERICA' 'ARGENTINA '.

  As above, your first file is correct if you use generation referance.
  Your mapping in the rules file should be like this.
  Gen2, Gen3 TOTAL MARKET, MARKET TOTAL
  'SOUTH AMERICA' 'BRAZIL '.
  'SOUTH AMERICA' 'ARGENTINA '.

  For generation Referance always starts on Gen2.
  Gen1 sets the level of the dimension. If the dimension is not there, you must set in the definition of dimension not in Field1.

• problem update to bind a member with an attribute using the rule of load

  Hi - I'm trying to update an existing Member with another attribute of the dimension of the attribute by using a load rule. In the properties to build the dimension, I have the name of the selected member where it says size. Underneath, I field Type, here, I have the dimension of the selected and then attribute below I have the number 0, to match with the child member, I'm trying to update for.
  
  I am able to validate the rule, no problem, but when I run the update plan, my attributes for this member does not update. This happens to all of my attributes.
  
  I'm on Essbase 7.0.
  
  
  Thank you

  You should (at least) two columns in your rule of load. The first column with the names of members of the basic members you want to associate attributes to and in the second column of the attribute member name.
  If the dimension build properties for the first column, you set the name of the dimension and type of build level or generation (I suggest level) and set the number of levels. (Do not forget the dimension properties build to build level or you will get an error)
  The second column, select the dimension then go down and select the dimension of the attribute that is associated with this dimension of the base

  For example for the Basic sample, you may have a line that looks like

  100-10 can

  For the first column, you would select Dimension = product, value of Type level = 0
  The second column would Dimension = product Type = attribute dimension Pkg Type

  In the dimension settings, make sure product is set to build level and can associate attributes and allows you to change the link.

• Cannot generate an alt with load rule hierarchy

  I try to use a rule of load to build a hierarchy of alternative to ASO.
  
  I used level build (Lev 0, 1 Lev, Lev 2 and so on).
  
  But when I run it it gives me the error incorrect Parent for each record
  
  \\Record #1 - wrong parent... For members... (3307)
  \\Record #2...
  \\Record #3...
  error.
  
  I tried to not build level 0 and only level 1 and upwards and it gives me a \\Column 2 failed Validation. I tried to use the generation to generation and it gives me the same thing. I tried to use only level build for children below the Summit, and it's the same thing.
  
  In the build settings Sun, I put already "allow change of ownership.
  
  Someone at - it a hierarchy successor to ASO before being able to build?

  To create another hierarchy using level of generations, you need to have the cumulative primary and the other in the files (at least 1 for the primary level) using Cameron favorite sample basic database, if we want to create the hierarchy product for drinks carbonated diet a level build methid file and rule should look like to (Note I do not know if the product numbers are actually coupons for basic example)
  In my example, I'll use
  100-10 = cola (no hierarchy replacing)
  100 20 = diet Cola
  200-20 = root beer diet

  LEv0, LEv1, Prouct Lev1 product, product
  100-10 100
  Soft 100-20 100 diets
  Soft 200-20 200 diets

  Of course, you could add more to the file as properties, additional levels, alias, etc. but the format should be like this.
  The simplest method for the construction of replacing rollups is parent-child. If members already exist, it adds automatically as shared under the new hierarchy unles syou members define the dimension of generation for him properties allow them of no not or move members

• Type of Dimension set using the Rules file

  Hello
  
  I tried to build a dimension (ASO) of accounts using the build parent-child and wanted to know if we can specify the dimension type "Account" to in the rules file?
  Also all the codes of the property can be given in a single column or placing them in separate columns a good practice? I need to make this hierarchy of dimension as 'dynamic '.
  
  I use the definition of dimension of the rules file option name.
  
  Thanks for your contributions!

  Yes you can do it in a rules file. In the setting dimension dialog box, go to the third tab. You can see the list of dimensions and the possibility of adding dimensions. Right-click on the desired size and then select Edit properties. Then, you can set the dimension type and dimension member properties.
  With regard to the properties. I always keep in separate columns of my source.

• Migration of Essbase loading rules with source RDBMS from Windows to Linux

  Hello
  
  We have essbase load rule with the sql data source. In windows, it linked through ODBC created using the ODBC Manager in Windows. The Essbase server in the Production environment is now on the linux machine. How to connect the rule files essbase with the SQL data source now?
  
  Kindly help.
  
  Kind regards

  You must configure the odbc.ini file to add a data source - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_sql_interface/frameset.htm?ch02s03.html

• should we empty loading data ODI and move to "Load rules" of Essbase?

  Hello
  We use to load data in planning 11.1.1.3's ODI Essbase cubes.
  Should move us data loading ODI on "Load rules" of Essbase?
  We see no advantage to ODI over aid maxl Essbase calls script loading rules and calc scripts.
  One thing he has the advantage on Essbase, is that it can refresh planning. Can you load supporting details and the text in the cell?

  You have data from multiple sources, say some data sets are file bases, some are stored in warehouses or books of accounts, you want to collect these data, transform and apply the mapping, to load that data into essbase, you can add Automation around her then that is an example to use ODI to load data into essbase There are many others.
  Yes you can do it with maxl, but must eventually bring about more strive to add automation, mappings, error handling etc. as you would if you have walked the path of ODI.
  I do not say that you must use it, if you don't see any profit is meaningless.

• Loading SQL tables using the rules file

  Hi Experts,

  I have a doubt. In our project, we have a maxl command that imports the essbase data cube using tables sql below.

  import data from database VodaPln.wrkforce

  log in as 'devhyp' identified by 'password' using the rules_file «WFDataLoad.rul» Server

  My doubt is here in this maxl, we define the schema and password name ('devhyp' identified by 'password'( ), but we do not give the name of the table. So, how will the maxl understand what table to extract the data. Please let me know in case I'm missing something and need to check out somewhere else.

  Thanks and greetings

  The actual SQL statement is in the State of charge, IT will set the columns, tables where the conditions and joins. The first parameter is the name of user who may or may not be the schema name. This information is containd in the State of charge, but also an ODBC or CLI connection

• Unable to load data using the rules file

  Hi all

  I am facing a strange problem while loading data by using a rules file:

  1. I don't get any error/kick. It gives fair attention No. data values are modified by this data file loading. But nothing will load inside.

  2. I tried with Maxl and directly from EAS but gettting same warning.

  3 has tried to block sending n to entires in the data file and it does not work (so no Dynamics members etc..)

  4. rule file validates correctly.

  5. I tried with different types of different files (Csv, Xls, Txt, etc.) but no luck.

  Any suggestions / ideas of what could be bad?

  Don't know what exactly was the problem, but I recreated the rule files and it solved the problem... May be a case of corrupted file rule?

• Passing parameters to MaxL to be used in a data load rule

  I would like to create a MaxL script that accepts parameters, and this parameter is then used ina given load rule, IE. It will be used to set the exercise used in a data load rule field.
  
  is it possible somehow? I don't see how I can use the settings of a rule of data loading, but maybe I could use MaxL to set the parameter as a value in a variable substitution and maybe use this way?
  
  
  Thank you.

  You gave the answer, yousef. You cannot pass parameters to a MaxL statement to a rule of the charge, but charge rules may have them-substitution variables (System 9 or newer). If the void var in a statement MaxL value, then on the State of charge, use that sub var fade like a header or a column header
