• Field rule file date

  Hello everyone,

  Therefore the week with me to have problems of rule files.  I am loading a rule file that contains a date field in it as seen below:

  

  I made changes to my plan to allow typical steps and changed the date format as shown below:

  

  If I try to load this rule and ignore the field 'entry date' my file works fine.  Whenever I'm trying to load the rule with the active field it will not load anything and I get the message following (warning) with no error log:

  LoanASO.Loans of corrupted database

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Rule reading information SQL for the database [credits]

  Rule of reading of the purpose of the database rule [credits]

  Active parallel loading: [1] block to prepare the discussions, block [1] write discussions.

  Global storage applications ignore update derived cells. [3] cells sautéed

  Data loading up with [LoanLoad.rul]: [0,608] seconds

  Completed import data ['LoanASO'.'] Loans]

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Load data buffer commit elapsed: [0.016] seconds

  Completed import data ['LoanASO'.'] Loans]

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Someone at - it ideas?

  A test, I manually load a date via smartview in my intersection and the exportation of essbase looked like the following:

  "Loan Principal GL'"effective Date. "

  "Dec', 'FY14' '098' 'L1' 'Act'"RR5' 'Active' "GL-4002" "Type-14" "1e2" 340849.45 "#Txt:12/31/2014" "" "" "

  I see that when I export it comes in a different format "#txt:12/31/2014" so I didn't know if I need to load different data.

  Also, I want to just take a big thank you to all those who respond to these positions.  I find this invaluable community and I hope it will be able to contribute more I become more proficient in Essbase and planning.

  Thank you

  Well, I finally got it and I think I learned my lesson here.  What was causing it was in the order of my articles.  One of my size was before my data so there get confused.  I need to be more careful of the order of my rules files I guess.

  Thanks for all your replies again,.

• Construction of dimension rules file

  Hello everyone,

  I have problems with a rules file, that I built with the alias of an attribute does not.  I get the error \\Column 13 ignored; No member corresponding (3326).  Here's a screenshot of my rules file:

  

  Column 1 - account

  Column 3 - Account Alias

  Column 8 - Type Code

  Column 11 - Code of call report

  Column 12 - agent Code (attribute) - related to the account (column 1)

  Column 13 - Code name of agent (aka "Agent Code")

  Here are the 13 column field properties:

  

  I'm still pretty new to these construction, so any suggestions are appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bret

  
  

  You specify the attribute to tag and that works. But you are not explicitly saying that the Alias attribute must be labelled

  I think that's maybe the reason why this does not work

  If you add another column to column 13, which will be the attribute and your Alias column would be column14

• ATTRPARENT dimension of the text attribute to several levels of construction with a rules file

  Hello

  My first post here.

  I'm trying to create the dimension generation rule to create a dimension of the multilevel text attribute and then combine with the basic dimension.

  So far, it is difficult.

  With regard to my experience:

  -J' have a relatively basic understanding of the rules of charge both with regard to the data loads and define the updates - I find this quite confusing area and the documentation does not help that much

  -J' only started using dimensions attribute, so for me it's a new concept, but we are already quite useful in certain applications

  -J' I try to automate the process of construction of dimension attribute, and then associating attributes with the basic dimension

  I use the following documentation as a guide:

  Building size attribute and associate attributes

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E12825_01/EPM.111/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?dotdimb.htm

  and / or

  Work with the attribute multi-level Dimensions

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E26232_01/doc.11122/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?ch21s06s05.html

  (essentially the same source in both cases)

  The ultimate goal is to replicate one of our existing recently created attribute dimensions of a cube to another.

  I built a few versions of the required flat file and the corresponding rules file, but none worked.

  I tend to get the following validation error message:

  This field is defined as an ATTRPARENT. The following column must be a field of association attribute type.

  As I got stuck so I gave to the current actual attributes and moved on to experimenting with the sample / base cube.

  I built a flat file that is supposed to create a new dimension of text attribute named ABC with two attributes level structure:

  ABC

  A

  AA

  AB

  B

  BA

  BB

  and associate it with the dimension of the product in the following way

  200-10 AA

  200-20 AB

  200-30 BA

  200-40 BB

  The flat file looks like this:

  "AA"      "A"         "200-10"               "A"         "AA"      "200"

  "AB"      "A"         "200-20"               "A"         "AB"      "200"

  "AB"      "B"         "200-30"               "B"         "AB"      "200"

  "BB"       "B"         "200-40"               "B"         "BB"       "200"

  and the rule file has 6 matching columns with titles as follows:

  Level0, LEVEL1 ABC, ABC Level0, product ATTRPARENT0, ABC ABC0, LEVEL1 product, product

  all agree with what the documentation says.

  The first 2 columns are intended to define and create the dimension of the attribute, while the 4 next make association...

  I couldn't the above rules file to validate.

  The same validation error message appeared as previously:

  This field is defined as an ATTRPARENT. The following column must be a field of association attribute type.

  However when I tried to actually update the outline of the mistakes of dimbuild.err file has been created which gives some additional clues:

  \\ATTRPARENT column 4 must precede a numeric or datetime column attribute association

  Now... Finally the interesting part...

  Back to the documentation...
  

  I don't mind if the size of the attribute is generated and then those associated with step or in two separate steps.

  I try to do both tasks in one step only because that's what the documentation seems to suggest attributes at several levels.

  First of all I read:

  Note:

  If you work with a multilevel dimension attribute or with a dimension of the attribute of the digital type, Boolean, or date, the rules file requires an additional field. See working with Dimensions of the multilevel attribute.

  Yes, I work with a dimension of the multilevel attribute so the above statement applies (I guess) and so I'm going to see what works with several levels attribute Dimensions has to say.

  Then, I read:

  When an attribute is part of a digital multi-level, Boolean, or dimension attribute date, the source data must include columns for all generations or the size of the attribute levels.

  Fair enough... so I do what they say... my attribute dimension is at several levels, so I can assume that the statement above applies...

  So, I build my rule in accordance with the guidelines above.

  And then, as we have already mentioned, I get the error message about ATTRPARENT and when I read, it turns out that ATTRBPAREN cannot be used for numeric or date attribute dimensions !

  I'm totally confused at this point.

  What about the attribute text multi-level dimensions ?

  They are several levels but they are NOT numeric or date those!

  The documentation does not seem to tell what to do in this case...

  Anyone build something like that?

  What is the thing that I'm missing?

  What about

  I'm glad that you got to work. I tested and that is to create the dimension attribute and associate it with the rule of the load.

  You could ignore the construction size manually. Remove the attribute dimension. The rule1 go for the Dimension settings under the definition of Dimension tab. Then right-click on the product and change the properties. On the attribute tab, add 'Test' or whatever you want to call the attribute, and assign the text type. He adds the attribute and associate it with the basic dimension when it create the hierarchy. Note that the rules could actually be reversed where you create members of level 0 and then more later to create the hierarchy.  Of course you must pass the size of the attribute association to the other rule

• DATAEXPORT and rule files

  I have a requirement where I export data demand A projections and it powers the B application. Both applications are different so I do all my mapping using rule files. In my calculation script, I'm specifying months to be exported to & CurrMonth:Dec in my statement of FIX and lets say that the year is FY11.
  
  When I export data using DATAEXPORT it gives me period in colums... i.e. initially that I export all the 12 months of data he gave me data for the 12 months in the columns so I traced each column with a month in my rules file. It was working fine and imported in the right place.
  
  But now since I only need the current month data to reduce the number of exported months according to the current month will be different every time. So, how I prepare the rules file so that it is satisfactory data for some months come in and recognizes what months are imported? It will be a pain if we will need to prepare the rule files each month and set up the mapping for the months to come in.
  
  Please let me know if there is a way to make it easier and more effective. Any ideas are appreciated.
  
  Kind regards
  ~ Hervé

  I think that you can just create a file of false data with a single record load but every 12 months. You can read that in your data load rule and retrieve columns to appear and then match.

  Throw the folder and now to apply the amended rule file to your sometimes a month, then two, then three, etc. etc, load the file.

  I will note that ETL in a file of data load is a bit dangerous to venture somewhere: I've been bitten by that firmly and painfully. A better (although Yes, more complicated and more expensive) way to achieve this is to export to SQL and make your transformations with a view, or, breathless, in one product as a ODI ETL. If I were in your position, I would write emails explain to everyone that if I do ETL in a State of charge, it is only because someone who held a gun to my head. Yes, I don't really like to do ETL in a State of charge.

You know, this word that begins with the letter "s". I continue to be mystified why this is an illegal word in OTN, but it is. I still think that someone does not like the shoe industry. :)

• 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.

• 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?
  
  Published by: 873675 on July 20, 2011 12:25 AM

  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).

• How to reject the week 41 to 52 from 2007 data in the rules file

  Hello
  I must dismiss 2007W41 2007W52 according to load data, which means I want just the data up to 2007W40.
  
  Now until I've done is I edited the rule files went to select the Time column > folders > reject > since I have to dismiss more than one, I chose 'and '.
  
  the field is displayed as "Time" at the top
  
  Type string / number of Condition
  String 2007W41 contains
  
  Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?
  
  Thanks in advance...

  I think that you read it wrong
  Think of the string aaaaa

  To make the rejection criteria in engilish. You want to deny if the string contains aaaa or bath
  IF you reject if the string contains yyyy which is good and meets the criteria
  If you add and the string contains bbbb it is no longer true because he dones do not contain benamer

  If my thong was aaaabbbb then the and would work

  If you use a non contains, then youwould have to employ the and instead of the or.
  IF the string does not contian aaaa and does not bbbb

  All this should not be confused with the global and/or logic that works on multiple columns

• How to delete a field in the essbase rules file?

  It is a fundamental issue, I create a rule to load the metadata for essbase, when I create the rules file, it displays 20 default fields and I just need to 14 fields, so I want to 'remove' some fields, but I don't know how to do, should I use 'combine' or 'reject records "?
  
  Nightstands, if I want to add a field in the rules file, should I use 'split' field? or "create filed with the help of text"?
  
  Edited by: user2571802 may 6, 2010 11:40

  Just to add I know you use ODI and you can be implemented a rule of charging for it, if you manually enter the details of the column without loading a file or using SQL when you design it, it does not matter on the extra at the end of the column names columns as they will be ignored.

• Add alias with rules file

  I have existing members and I would like to add an alias to the members. Two columns in the data file, the Customer_ID and the client_name.
  
  Customer_id already exists in Essbase, I want to add as an alias client_name.
  
  I built a rules file to use this data but get an error on the saying of validation:
  
  Field 2 - this member is marked as an alias, but there is no associate member field that precedes.
  
  I have referred to field 1 as Member ID.
  
  What I am doing wrong?

  This could mean that you do not associate the same size as the alias

  for example
  Gen2, customer | Alias2, product

  or incorrect associated generations/levels

  for example
  Gen2, product | Alias3, product

• Load data into Essbase using the rules file

  Hello
  
  IAM trying to create a rule to load for the fresh Essbase cube associated with the Hyperion Planning Application.We having 14 Dimensions (including the HSP_Rates Dimension).
  
  The falt file used to generate the rule file has columns related to the 13 dimensions as well as the data as the 14th column column. When I validate the rules file, he said "the rules file is correct for the loading of the data.
  
  My concern here is iam not taking care of Member Dimnesion related to the Dimension of "HSP_Rates" (not even as the Difinition of the header). I'm doing something wrong here? How validation can MOVE independently without taking into account one dimension?
  
  If I insert the data, while recovering the data in Excel which dimension member HSP_Rates should I use?
  
  Any response is greatly appreciated.
  
  Thank you
  RNG

  Hello

  You should charge against 'HSP_InputValue' in the HSP_Rates dimension, i.e. where the input values must be loaded.

• URI format for shared local files

  Firefox uses this format to access shared files on a LAN... file:///host/path for example file:///computername/sharename/MyDocs/filename.txt.

  This format is different from the standard form file://host/path that is used on other browsers, such Windows, Chrome.

  This means Firefox doesn't gives me access to shared files when I coded in standard format URI in my local HTML documents. Why is Firefox different or non-standard.

  Hi seebee, file:///host/path apparently is the standard form for a unc path:

  "It's five slashes - two for the Protocol, one to indicate the root of the file system, and then two more to indicate the beginning of the name of the server.
