Orphaned member

Hi all

Explain what "Orphaned members" HFM.

Thank you

Hi nkumars,

Orphaned members are members who are not attached to the parents.
The two ways most popular member can become orphaned is:
(1.) to change to existing metadata, such as rename, will force the children become orphans. HFM was designed this way. He treats the members newly appointed as a piece of "new" metadata
(2.) to change to existing metadata, such as the removal of the Member in the hierarchy (in which case the Member does exist nowhere in the hierarchy), but not actually delete the dimension all together.

For example:
To view the account orphans members in metadata (classic) Manager.
1.) metadata in the metadata Manager
2.) open the accounts Dimension
3.) on the side right of the metadata Manager, click list members
4.), click Show orphaned members

You will notice that there are system accounts in the list of orphaned members. This is because these accounts don't rollup or have relatives. Other than the system of accounts, you should have no orphan members.

I hope this helps.

Send me a note if you have any questions about this post.

  • What is an orphaned member?

    Can someone please explain what an orphan Member? I work in 11.1.2.3, a typical application with a single BSO. We have also several applications of essbase stand alone (planning). I'm not sure what constitutes a member "orphan." The Oracle documentation for the most part, I found concerns EPMA and dealing with orphans, not what they are. Your help is appreciated!

    FA

    Orphaned members are members in an overview (specifically a dimension) that have no prescribed parent. It is common to see the latter in EPMA early in a project, and it is usually triggered by loading a child before you create a parent in a dimension build.

    -There are children in the dimension that have no - where ROLLUP! In EPMA, this triggers a warning, because we want to clean those.

  • EPMA 11.1.2.1 interface alias of Tables are added as orphans

    Hello
    I'll put up a shared library of EPMA on the tables of the interface and my aliases are not recognized as an alias. EPMA is trying to import them as members and can not find a hierarchy, then it is adding them to my shared as orphans dimensions.


    In my database, I have configured as follows (for simplicity, I will use only 1 dimension (in years) and the alias of this dimension).
    IM_DIMENSION
    LOADID - C_DIMENSION_NAME - C_DIMENSION_CLASS_NAME - C_MEMBER_TABLE_NAME - C_HIERARCHY_TABLE_NAME
    NULL-----------YEARS-------------------------YEAR-------------------------------------NULL---------------------------------YEARS_VW

    C_PROPERTY_ARRAY_TABLE_NAME - C_DIM_PROPERTY_TABLE_NAME
    YEARS_ALIAS_VW - NULL

    In my YEARS_VW I have
    LOADID - PARENT - CHILD - ISPRIMARY
    NULL - YEARS - FY09 - 1
    NULL - YEARS - FY10 - 1

    and I have this for FY09 - FY16 (alias will be written year 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, etc.)

    My alias view looks like this:
    LOADID - PROPERTY - NAME - KEY - VALUE
    NULL - Alias - 2009 - by default - null
    I have a line for each year from 2009-2016

    I have created within EPMA, size of alias and the years. I associated the dimension alias to the dimension of the years. I also created the import profile for the dimension of years (PROF_YEARS). In the section card Dimensions, I have the years dimension maps to the library shared years and chosen replacement as the type of process. In the mapping options, only the alias column appears and it is automatically mapped to the Alias.

    When I run the profile, I get the following errors:
    'Member '2009' will be added, but it's an orphan. Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    'Member '2010' will be added, but it's an orphan. Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    'Member '2011' will be added, but it's an orphan. Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    'Member '2012' will be added, but it's an orphan. Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    "Member"2013 ' will be added, but it is an orphan." Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    "Member"2014 ' will be added, but it is an orphan." Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    "Member"2015 ' will be added, but it is an orphan." Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    "Member"2016 ' will be added, but it is an orphan." Please see the hierarchy for Member Section/Table.
    (I get this error for each alias that I have)

    The members that all added correctly, but the aliases are not added as an alias, but as orphaned members.
    You can provide any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Daniel

    If you are just using the default alias and you want to put an alias against a member, and then you include it in your hierarchy table.
    You'd have a column called ALIAS = by DEFAULT, for example

    LOADID - PARENT - CHILD - ALIAS BY DEFAULT-= ISPRIMARY
    NULL - YEARS - FY09 - 2009 - 1

    You would then map the column in the import profile

    See you soon

  • "Add a family member" option grayed out

    I want my husband to have its own apple - ID we always shared one, but it becomes very problematic. Initially, I had all 5 of our children on the sharing of the family.  When I discovered that I couldn't add my husband because of the limit of six people, I went through a lot wrong with Apple to have apple ID my deleted child.  After all that, I'm still not able to add another Member to the family.  They said wait a day, that he was. They seem to be other solutions. I'm hoping to find one here.

  • ICloud family member App requests

    Hello

    Fact the colossal mistake of buying my daughter an iPod Touch 5th (iOS 9.3.5) for her birthday and defining its place as a member of the family in iCloud, so no matter what application it wants to download (and God, there are many of them) must be approved by me. Not a smooth process.

    First of all, my daughter, for some reason, you must enter its AppleID twice now to apply. Can someone suggest why?

    Then, its requests for app do not seem to come through my Mac (MacBook Pro 2011, OS X 10.10.5).) I can approve apps in person on his iPod Touch, but my fingers are fat, old and it's a deep trouble. I can't see all requests cached anywhere - Notification Center, for example - and my daughter has repeatedly ask the apps.

    I would be very grateful for any suggestion. Thank you.

  • Family sharing: every Member of the family needs of different Apple ID? Non-Apple ems can participate?

    For many years - members of our family were Non-Apple, "PC users. 2 of us bought iPads. Read us carefully, which seemed to be legal briefs explaining specific Apple buys. We are Post grad educated adults. We have tried to read the 'fine print' Apple, but I guess that not ALL of us are not as intellectual as the "Tech Writers' @Apple.

    Outstanding issues:-does not include members of the family in 'Sharing of the family' nor iCloud Photos (stored in icloud). -Is that each and every PC using the Member of the family, need to connect only with Apple ID? "ITunes game is" separate object Apple ID too? Finally, how many times can you change as a manager of Apple account with credit card, so "readily" available iTunes purchases without a warrant of a judge of the circuit court? Seems to my family, no, w/o peripheral non-Apple, can't do much, only with these iPads. Would appreciate answers polite, helpful, non-judgmental ppl who feel, if we don't have an in-depth knowledge of Apple, they are NOT intellectually challenge. Thank you

    I try to analyse questions strung together.

    "- Cannot include members of the family in 'Sharing of the family' nor iCloud Photos (stored in icloud)." I don't understand this.  Members must have an Apple ID, which you then invite to share.  Family shares - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT201060

    Yes, everything works with AppleIDs.

    An iTunes subscription game is one by AppleID, not shared.  There is a similar feature which operates as part of a subscription to Apple's music for which there is a family subscription option.

    The system is configured to work with the software and Apple devices even if part of the software is available in Android and Windows.

    As a paid music Apple subscriber you have access to the entire catalog of music music Apple and can listen to what you want anytime you want. The picture as a sort of 'rent' music. The music is not 'owned' by you, it is "used" by you. If you cancel your subscription to Apple's music, you will lose the benefits of listening to the music Apple's music catalog. If however you 'buy' an album or a song you 'clean', it's yours and it is downloaded into your library iTunes music. If you cancel your Apple music subscription you have always, everything like you bought the CD in the store.
