Fixed-width import format FDM & periods/accounts question

Hi experts FDM.

I have a problem I wanted to tender out to you on about the fixed-width import formats and how to meet my current scenario for export to Hyperion Planning.
I work with a flat file (.txt), I need to import the FDM with the current format;

ABCDEFG...Z
Year Channel Product MTD-account-Jan 1 MTD-account-Jan 2 Jan-VOE-account1 Jan-VOE-Account2 .... Dec-CDA-Account2
2013Channel_1Product_1100020001000200010000

These are all fixed in width for the field lengths must be defined in the import format. The obligation for the loading of the system is only a speciifc value account 1 and account 2 months a year.

If my choice month is 2013 Jan, I need only the columns F and G to be charged. These are the issues I've identified;

  1. A fixed-width import format can accommodate for the loading of multiple accounts in the same file? Or I would need a format to import separated by account?
  2. A fixed-width import format can accommodate for variable current months loading? Or do I 12 import formats/sites per month?

Your help is very appreciated!

Thank you very much

  • How to copy the parameter FDM (import format, mapping of dimension, the command table)

    Dear all,
    How to copy the parameter FDM (import format, mapping of dimension, table of control) of application to another application.
    I found that one dimension mapping can be imported. Is it possible to copy the FDM application quickly?

    Thank you for your help

    If you get a chance try the following script, it is so simple and easy to extract all the map as XML data and help to import via import script.

    ---------------
    Void MapExtractor()

  • My paintings in CS4 do not take into account the fixed width!

    I try to make a fixed width of 700px, and I put it but when I put text inside keeps and goes to the right, and you have to scroll to the right, of course I need it to go any furthur 700px then drop to the next line.

    Anything I'm doing wrong?

    A long string of text without spaces * will * do exactly what you describe.

    Try to put a space in the text that you enter and see what happens.

    A table cell will be expanded to fit whatever content is that it contains.  If you have a table set to 700px by example and place an image inside the cell to 710px, it will expand on this table, regardless of the defined width.

    PS: I got the response window open and there aren't all the answers at this time, I went to another site for a bit, and when I came back posted my reply, saw that bergent had already answered as well :-)

  • Jump in import format

    Hello world

    We have our source CSV (Delimter file) file requirement we have subfolders

    Account currency amount Costcenter

    C001 1001 USD 1000

    1002 C002 2000 INR

    1003 C003 3000 EUR

    According the data above, we want to only data records USD will be imported in FDM .like it

    1001 1000 C001

    In import format jump, I used and I wrote the script to import to Skip like this

    Dim strAccount

    "Store the first value of the account

    strAccount = strField

    ' Check if the value is empty

    If strAccount = "RIN", "EUR" then

    "Line break

    Res .PblnSkip = True

    On the other

    AccountEmptySkip = strAccount

    End if

    End Function

    When I import the import all records. his recordings not INR jumps and EUR

    Can someone help me solve this

    The problem here is that you mix the jump feature implementations. You can specify Skip in the name of the Format field import from files of fixed length, where it will then evaluate the expression to see if it matches all characters in the specified file. For delimited files, you will need to use a script to import, to evaluate and to apply the criteria of Skip here.

    What you need to do is the following:

    (1) change your import format to below

    Field name field number expression several fields

    Account 4 1 Script = Skip.uss

    CostCenter 3 4

    Amount                     4                            4

    (2) modify the Skip.uss script as follows:

    Dim strSkip

    strSkip = DW. Utilities.fParseString (strRecord, 4, 2,",")

    If strSkip = "INR" GOLD strAccount = "" EUR Then

    SelectCADLines = strField

    On the other

    Res .PblnSkip = True

    End if

    This assumes that your file is delimited by commas, if not change the delimiter (in bold) on the 2nd line of the script above to what you use as the delimiter in your source file.

  • Fixed width string of spreadsheet to table

    I have to read a file in a format with a fixed width per column and an unknown number of columns. Y at - it a simple to convert means that in a table - essentially a 'string Array to worksheet.

    I have a working method, but it of not really stylish and is a bit slow for the largest data sets. There also (currently) the halting problem if there is a blank line in the data set. I can fix it by searching for tokens (cr/lf), find the number of lines, replacing that loop outdoor 'while' in a loop for, but...  I hope that there is a better solution.

    Thank you

    Start by right-clicking on your reading text file.  There is an option to read the lines.  Use it.  What it's going to do now is create an array of strings, each element being a line in your file.  Now change this in a loop in a loop with the array of lines autoindexing FOR in.  Then remove the line function get.

    This will help a little.  I'll have to think inside the while loop to see if there is a better way.  Nothing comes immediately to mind.

  • Newbie: After I have import using FDM, what should I do to get the data in HFM?

    Hello

    Anyone know what I should do next? Y at - it an article or document that can help me?

    Thank you very much for your time!

    Hello

    I just posted a new blog entry for beginners:

    akafdmee.blogspot.com/2014/09/IM-new-to-fdmee-part-1-How-do-i-start.html

    It is for FDMEE but also valid for classical FDM.

    Basically, to load data, you will need to do the following:

    1 set your import format

    2. set your mappings

    Then run the workflow:

    1 import

    2 validate

    3 export/load

    If all goes well, data will be loaded to your target.

    I hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to stretch a picture all the width of the browser in fixed-width mode?

    At this point, I'm not interested in using the features adapted for my Web site. I created a fixed width site, but when I add an image, it would extend to the entire width of the page that I find myself with white margins on each side when she saw in the browser. I tried to change the width of the size of the page and checked the properties of specific page and margins all without a solution. The only solution seems to be to change the fluid width site and add the height and width sensitive features. However, I have scrolling effects I don't want to lose, but who do not work with the fluid and responsive options. When I on the fluid width site, I find myself with a horizontal scroll down bar. In my opinion, it's unpleasant and unprofessional.

    I have the ability to create objects, such as rectangles to full width within the option "resize". Why this is not possible with images? Dragging it to the full width of the page don't seem to do the trick in fixed-width mode. Is there an alternative? I set the properties of the site both "Max Page Width: 1200" and Max Page Width: 1400 "to see if it makes a difference. I've changed the margins and padding on the global site properties and properties of the page in question. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.

    Thank you in advance.

    Found the answer to my own question here: "Stretch to the width of browser" greyed out

  • Items pinned to albums to behave with Responsories in fixed width site

    I have a site of fixed width with a header that is pinned at the top so it always visible when you scroll through the site. In the new version of muse, however, those elements that are pinned now have with Responsories that I don't want. This means that when you shrink the browser window my menu moves to the left after a certain point, when it must remain fixed. Someone at - it suggestions to solve them. If I remove the PIN that holds it is flush with the top, it behaves properly.

    Thanks for the comments, but I finally found a work-around to my own question. I put the whole menu inside a blank status button widget that I can then resize with the "stretch to browser width option" and PIN upwards at the same time (whereas before I could just pin it to the top at the expense of fixing on the center of my browser of fixed-length.) So now my menu is at the top and in the center of the fixed width dimensions. Sorry, it's a little hard to explain, but I work how it should now.

  • MultiLoad - import vs. Import Format Expressions cards

    Hello

    I'm running an issue while trying to use the multiload models.  Loading with an enitty that I declared in the importation of expressions format, these expressions are not reported to multiload data unless these expressions are shown on the maps to import.  I wonder if this is really the case, that the multiload function does not reference the Import Format but refers only the cards of import for the mapping.  Is this the case?

    Thank you

    Adam

    you are right in your thinking. the multiload text / excel layout is actually the multiload import format. If you look at Chapter 11 of the guide API FDM, it details the steps THAT FDM is going through for each type of process.

  • Invalid character import format

    I accidentally created an import with a format & who's bad character for FDM. It allow me to create the import format, but now I get an error page whenever I try to access the Import Format screen. This prevent me to remove the problematic import format. I tried to export import formats, remove the bad in the file xml and re - import but it did not work.

    No idea how to do to remove this import format?

    The only way to solve this problem is directly in the database.

    There is no workaround available via the web or at the bench.

  • The Variables of Substitution Essbase and import Formats

    Does anyone know please this is a way to use Substitution Essbase values variables in scripts of FDM Import Format? We want to load data using FDM to Essbase based on the current version substitution variable (i.e. & CurVersion), so that data is sent against the correct member.

    We have tried to write "& CurVersion" in the respective column of the. DAT file, however, Essbase is impossible to import data to "& CurVersion", throwing an error saying that it is not a member is valid (even with the symbols of rating removed)

    The FDM Essbase adapter allows substitution variables to use? If so, how can we go about it? The only other alternatives that we can think of are:
    (a) process the. DAT file before it is imported into Essbase, to replace all occurrences of "& CurVersion ' with the value of the variable real possibility of substitution retrieved using MaxL within a batch script)
    (b) load the data to another Member and copy within Essbase with a calc script.

    A better solution would be preferable!

    Use a load rule of FDM to load the data, ignore the FDM version value in the .dat file and set the rule of the load to use the substitution variable in its header for the size of the Version.

  • Import Format script to update multiple fields

    Following my previous post yesterday (Import Format script required for work in several areas , now I need my script import to Update several fields (two) at the same time, based on criteria across multiple fields. ) So far, I can use DW. Utilities.fParseString to assess values across several fields, but now I need to update not only the field in question, but also an additional field at the same time. For example:

    Function TBService (strField, strRecord)

    "How to upgrade a second field at the same time?
    Dim strField2 As String

    If left (strField, 1) = "S" Then
    If DW. Utilities.fParseString (strRecord, 3, 8, ',') = 'B1110"Then
    strField2 = "N101.
    On the other
    strField2 = 'network n/a '.
    End If
    TBService = strField
    On the other
    TBService = "Service s/o".
    End If

    End Function

    Is it still possible? Should I look for to create an event script that would work subsequent to importation? Or is it possible here in the import script?

    The second field you are trying to manipulate should have its own import script.

  • How to use the import with FDM with adapter ERPI script?

    Hello

    I use FDM and ERPI 11.1.2 to load data of EBS R12 to planning 11.1.2

    Loaded from eBS data for a YEAR.

    I realized I could use an import script to manually calculate the amount with the periodic_net_cr and periodic_net_dr fields.

    But how to use this import script? Because in my import in FDM format, I do not use a file but directly the adapter, if no field "Expression".

    Thanks in advance for your help
