BI Viewer component and OneStream 9.0.0
Hi all, We upgraded one of our OS instances to 9.0.0 After a first look, it seems BI Viewer does not work anymore from Desktop app, but charts are showing from Modern Browser interface, any idea? Can't find a clue on Know Issues. On Desktop app, only the layout shows, no content: Same Dashboard from Modern Experience shows fine (I blurred data here) Any advice?
FileShare Harvest Folder view and deletion
Hello All, Our initial setup had everything copying data files to Application/Batch/Harvest folder. There has been multiple years of files stored in this location making it unable to open. I am trying to create something to pull the files and if folders are created to delete the stored files. I am uable to open the path and the clean up business rule fails to run due to the size. I spoke with some developers at Nashville Splash and am reaching out on here as well.

Quick OneStream Rule Behavior Check – O#Top Returning O#Import Value?
Hi Team, Quick question — has anyone else encountered this behavior in rule logic? I’m working with a standard api.Data.GetDataCell(...) call that includes the O#Top member in the POV. Here's the line I'm using: Dim baseValue As Decimal = api.Data.GetDataCell("C#Local:A#1104000000:F#CLO:O#Top:I#Top:U1#Top:U2#Top:U3#Top:U4#Top:U5#Top:U6#Top:U7#Top:U8#Top").CellAmount. BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, baseValue) On the Cube View, this correctly returns -501 under O#Top. However, when I log the value in the rule using: - It outputs the value from O#Import, not the aggregated O#Top result I expected. This rule worked flawlessly for 3 years until now on Version 7.4. As a workaround, I manually aggregated the base origin members in the rule, which produced the expected result. However, I’m still unclear why O#Top didn’t aggregate properly in this case, given that it functions as expected in Cube Views. I checked and compared with several other apps, including Golfstream, in which this rule worked. Environment: This behavior was observed in 7.4. After upgrading to version 8.4, the issue was resolved. I’d like to understand what may have caused this inconsistency, particularly: Could a bug affect the Origin dimension, which was resolved in 8.4? Has anyone experienced this behavior before? Appreciate any insights or similar experiences the community can share!
Dynamic Calc UD8 Dimension to Filter Account Dimension?
Is it possible to create a dynamic calc UD8 dimension, that then filters down the members on the Account dimension at a base level? (and if so, how?) For example, within the Account dimension, I have Member A, Member B, Member C and Member D. Can I create UD8 dimensions of "Group 1" and "Group 2" where if Group 1 is selected, it filters down Account to only show Member A and Member B. And if I choose Group 2, it filters Account to only include Member C and Member D. I know this can be accomplished with an alternate hierarchy on the Account dimension but just checking to see if this can be done alternatively. Thanks in advance!
Zero Suppression Threshold with Unstored Data
Howdy I want to apply a Zero Suppression Threshold (of 1,000) in a Cube View for a specific column. However, the Account in my column is a Dynamic Calc. The suppression isn't working at all, can someone confirm if Zero Suppression Threshold is only available for Stored Data? If it is only available for Stored Data, is my best option to use a Member Formula instead of a Dynamic Calc? I've tried using Cube View Math as well but I get the same result as using a Dynamic Calc. Thanks in advanceBI Viewer | Pivot Grid Formatting on Export
Hi everyone! I am working with a Pivot Grid dashboard item in the BI Viewer. I am investigating about the possibility of formatting the Excel export of this component. Currently, the exported file does not retain the formatting applied within the BI Viewer, resulting in a very non-user-friendly layout, with fixed column widths. Are there any options available? Any insights will be highly appreciated! :) Thank you! Have a nice day, Andra
Best Approach for Exporting and Importing a Dashboard into a New Application
Hi all, What is the best way to export and import a dashboard into a new application? Do I need to select all its components every time, even if some already exist in the destination? I’ve noticed that if you select only the dashboard or the embedded version, the components don’t appear in the XML file. Thanks in advance!Register now for the May edition of Tech Talks!
