• Loading using another table of FDM mapping table

  Hello
  I know that we can load the mapping tables using excel sheets.
  But I need to know is there anyway, we can load the tables of mapping using another table itself.
  If Yes please give me the way or whatever script...
  
  Thanks in advance

  This can be done, but you have quite rightly assumed would entail a bit of scripting. Personally I stick to using the output of the box methods for mappings in FDM. They are both robust and easy to use.

• FDM to connect to a relational source and target

  I'm new to this tool. I have a few basic questions. I based my research, but could not find a clear answer.

  Can I connect to a relational table as source and target for an application of FDM. Relational source isn't eBS or other applications, just a relational table. I would like to load the same data from a relational table to another table using FDM. I'm looking at the wrong tool? Should which adapter I use? ERPI source adapter is? Which adapter target?

  Can someone please you suggest? Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  If you're new to this tool, you should know that FDM won't 11.1.2.4.

  It is replaced by FDMEE which is already available in 11.1.2.3.

  In all cases, you can extract data from relational db by using a script of integration. FDM doesn't load data to a target database not Hyperion EPM but you he could get it works using the custom script.

• Clarification of FDM

  Hello
  
  Is it possible to load/copy of the table schema FDM Records to a text file and vice versa using FDM script
  
  Thanks in advance

  A code here is who writes the entire contents of a recordset in a file. A semicolon is used as the delimiter. A lot of info on GetString online:

  Set rs = DW.DataAccess.farsFireHose(strSQL, False)
  With rs
       If Not .EOF Then
            Set fsoFile = fso.OpenTextFile(strFile, 2, True)' Open the file for writing, overwriting if it exists
            Do While Not .EOF
                 fsoFile.Write .GetString(2,20,";",vbCrLf)' Write the records to file
            Loop
            fsoFile.Close

• Using XLS templates exported from FDM

  Hello
  
  FDM exportable excel templates (e.g. for the Import Format, logical s of accounts, etc.), update or remove records?
  
  For example, let0s I have a custom table of FDM and I want to manage using a XLS model, which will be loaded using the menu entry 'Import XLS'.
  
  Could we use that to completely manage the table?
  
  That is to say: If we have three records in the table, we export to XLS, delete us a record from the XLS, FDM would remove this record in the custom table as well when you import XLS?
  
  Thank you

  Hello

  I don't think so. I think that import XLS is simply an addition to the current data set. I always deleted all records in the relevant tables using a ststement DML started from a web script in the Taskflow FDM and then loading a complete dataset of the model with whatever changes are necessary, other documents, deletions etc. updates. It is clean and works.

• Source of FDM adapters

  When you go through the road to use an adapter of the FDM Source to provide the file Source GL trial balance as opposed to the generation of a file flat of the GL, is the Source adapter also out a flat file? Or is it a copy of the live table and insert them into the tables of FDM?
  
  To clarify:
  
  When I generate a flat file Balance.txt trial for the GL and I have import on FDM, the file flat itself is transferred to the Inbox and folder name respectable location in the Inbox, as it is then treated through FDM.
  
  If I use the Source adapter to extract information from GL, it also create a flat file and place it in the Inbox? Or is it simply to copy the data to the tdataseg FDM tables and does not produce an audit trail of txt file of what it pulled?
  
  Thank you!

  Depends on your version. ERPI is 11.1.1.3 + source for EBS adapters are 11.1.1.1 by 11.1.1.2. Both create flat files.

• FDMEE - how to get the CustomXTopMember of account

  Hello

  IM on a Migration FDMEE and facing some challenging subjects, I could solve of FDM in time, but where im struggling right now.

  To check if the target account has a certain Member of Top Custom3 I used in the BefImportScript the following function:

  ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

  «Get the imported data to the work table»

  Set rs = DW. DataAccess.farsTable (API. ArchiveMgr.State.GstrActiveWorkTableName)

  If it is rs.bof and not rs.eof then

  While Not rs.eof

  strTAcc = rs. Fields ("ACCOUNTX")

  strC3TM = UCase (HFM.fGetCustomTopMember (strTAcc, 10))

  strC3 = rs. Fields ("UD3")

  If Left(strC3,4) = "DISP" then

  vLH = 'DISP '.

  On the other

  vLH = 'ADD '.

  End If

  Select the strC3TM box

  Case "AS_TABLE".

  strC3Target = vLH & "_COST.

  Case "BS".

  strC3Target = "[NONE]".

  Case "BS_INVENTORY".

  strC3Target = "[NONE]".

  strC3Target = vLH & "_PROV".

  Case 'MOVE_SEC', 'MOVE_SEC_BS '.

  strC3Target = vLH & "_SEC.

  Case Else

  strC3Target = "Custom3 unmapped upper limb - BefProcMap.

  Select end

  RS. Fields ("UD3X") = strC3Target

  Now I need to to that as well in the FDMEE and im struggeling to find the same functions.

  Any help on this? If I can do it in the map that would be ok as well.

  ########

  Update: I used as well the 'HFM_LoadDimTables' function in the environment of FDM to grap denunciations of the application of HFM to the internal Table of FDM. It was that already contains a lot of information that I could then recover for my purpose.

  I found on the FDMEE Database Table AIF_HS_DIM_Member, which seems to be a good table with interesting information about the target member and their settings. But now it is empty. Any of you know how to fill this table? is there as it was in FDM a default Script that would do that? THX

  see you soon

  Are what version of FDMEE you?

  My suggestion is always to have a SQL view on top of HFM account metadata. You can then query this view easily from scripts.

• Writing a script in "AftValidate Sub"

  I'm trying to write a script in the Sub AftValidate. I want to stop the export if the target account has a negative value. Try to understand her mean parameters in the function.
  Void AftValidate (strLoc, strCat, strPer, lngProcState) and how to write this script.
  
  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can stop the export data in HFM if it is negative?

  tDataSeg contains the Source and the target. Take a look at the table in the Table of FDM editor and you see all the fields. For the most part, the target areas end with 'X '.

• HFM and FDM tables

  Hi Experts,

  I want to know the tables FDM and HFM, through which Exchange rates are charged. I mean the FDM used tables and HFM tables used for the loading of the exchange rate at HFM. and how do I question them databases

  Thanks for your help.

  All data, same exchange rate, are loaded by FDM tDataSegx tables. Identify the location that you load through exchange rate and will give you the reference to the correct tDataSeg table. On the top of my head, I don't know the HFM table, but why would you want to query these tables directly as you can view the information you need - FDM both HFM in the relevant application forms?

• Concatenation FDM Import Table script

  Hi all

  First post here, so let me know if I'm making mistakes or leaving out critical information.  I'm trying to use FDM for importing a pipe delimited text file, use the mapping feature, and then export the new data to a .txt file.  The problem is that the entity on the finished side dimension must be a concatenation of the fields of the entity and the division.  What I tried to do is to write a script for the field of the entity on the tables import screen.

  Function Div_Ent_Comb (lngCatKey, dblPerKey, strLoc, strWorkTableName)

  '------------------------------------------------------------------

  "Integration oracle Hyperion FDM IMPORT script:

  '

  "Created by: cwinslow"

  "Creation date: 2014-10-09 15:34:39.

  '

  ' Object:

  '

  '------------------------------------------------------------------

  'Set variables '.

  Dim strCombination As String

  Dim strDivision As String

  Dim strEntity As String

  ' set where the combo will go

  strCombination = Trim (DW. Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 29, 8, "|"))

  "Store column 7 of 11 of a delimited file

  strDivision = Trim (DW. Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 29, 5, "|"))

  "To store the column 8 of the 11 of a delimited file

  strEntity = Trim (DW. Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 29, 8, "|"))

  strCombination = strDivision & strEntity

  End If

  End Function

  Error when importing is as follows:

  Error: An error occurred importing the file.

  Detail: Object Variable or With block variable not set

  What I want to happen is when I import the file, is for the entity column show the result of the concatenation before going through the validation part.

  If you're just trying to concatenate two fields to use as a source for a mapping for the entity dimension, there is a much easier way to do this without script. In your import format to create two entries for the target dimension i.e. entity. The first line contains a reference to the field of the entity of your source (data field 8 of 29), the 2nd line will contain the reference to the field of the Division of your source (data field 5 of 29). If you do this FDM will automatically concatenate the 2 fields together for you.

• Function data FDM seg/card table

  If FDM is mainly used to transport data, tables of card/segment of data in the database can be purged without risking loss of important data? These tables contain large amounts of data, and our company does not FDM to reference historical data. These tables can be served without losing the functionality of the application of FDM itself?

  If you do not judge the prerequisites data (FDM) also important, you won't lose anything.*

  If you need to drill through back / activated between HFM to FDM. However, who would break of course.

• FDM 11.1.2.1 mapping table scripts does not accept as vba functions ' lef

  OK, in fdm 11.1.2.1 in the UD2 of IMPORTS column, I have something like "award::purpose:type" and in the mapping table script, I try to use the 'left' and 'middle' works to break the UD2 columns (delimited by ': '), then the mapping to a result to VALIDATE.
  
  Why simple VBA functions do not work in mapping scripts (where you have '#Script' in the column 'target Custom2')
  
  to simplify things, I would like the following to work (and it errors on the first line to the "left" function)
  ##########################################
  One_Award = Left (varvalues (21), 5)
  Result = One_Award
  ##########################################
  
  Thank you.

  VarValues (21) always contains the empty string values. This could be the cause of your problem. If findCol1 is set to-1, that this will cause the error you get.

• Automation of FDM directly from relational tables

  Hi Experts,
  
  We are planning to use FDM 11.1.2 for data loading direct traction of the oracle tables and then load it (Essbase Cube) planning application (11.1.2). They want to break through to source as well.
  
  We want to automate this process as whenever the oracle table gets updated with new data, the FDM should run automatically and update the cube Essbase.
  
  Please suggest me the options to do so.
  
  Thanks in advance!
  Alex keny

  It all depends on how you want to schedule batch processing. If, as in my previous example, he is authorized to perform the loading of the lot at the end of day process to capture changes then you would simply plan your script updated the batch to run once per daya at a specific time. However, if you want your batch to be triggered on every event was updated on the source table, then you could do something like the following:

  (1) have a trigger on the table from data source updates separate area with a value that indicates whether an update has occurred.
  (2) have a pprocess of voting that checks this value on a regular basis
  (3) use upsShell.exe to cretae one line of command that can be used for the shot of the load a script updated the batch
  (4) If an update is indicated, then run the command-line generated at step 3

• Location of FDM mapping question...?

  Hi all

  I'm new to FDM. I have my trying to understand how the different parts of mapping affect. "In the administration of FDM Guide, Parent location is defined as.

  Location of the parents, the affected parent to location. The store uses the mapping table

  of its parent. Multiple sites can share a parent. This feature is useful when several

  locations use a chart of accounts. Changes to a child or a parent mapping table are applied

  for children and parent everywhere. »

  Now I see a few places in my app location Parent defined as "[NONE]". So if all change mapping applied to another place of the mother, is there a way that it can affect locations with the Parent site "[NONE]"?

  Locations taking place Parent defined as "[NONE]" will have their own unique independent mappings. Thus, any mapping changes applied somewhere else of the mother, has no effect on the premises with the location of the Parent "[NONE]".

  In addition, for a place with a valid address of the specified Parent, changes made to the maps of the location of the parent or the child's location will impact maps of the location of the Parent.

  Thank you
