XF Dimensions Template - Update properties by scenario type
In the metadata XML file, if there are multiple values by scenario type, it splits into two rows and there is no easy way to generate two rows from the XF Dimension template. Is there any way to update member properties varying by scenario type via the upload template? I have to manually update, copy, and paste hundreds of times in order to have that property updated for the accounts. Using the standard metadata builder template, the other properties are getting overridden.
Where are journal attachments stored in OneStream?
Hi all, Does anyone know the physical storage location for journal attachments in OneStream? I found a table (table name: Attachements) with file names and related text but couldn’t locate the actual folder or path where I can extract it using a BR. Thanks in advance!How to get two decimal places in Member formula
Hi Everyone, I'm trying to write member formula (not dynamic calc), below is the syntax Dim Var1 as Decimal = Math.Round(api.Data.GetDataCell("A#630000").CellAmount, 2) api.Data.Calculate("A#520000 = A#430000 "*" & Var1 & "). after that getting error "Double is not valid, input string was incorrect format".
BI Blend Table - What is the significance of sEntity?
I just created a BI Blend table and when I open the file using a data adapter, I see the data unit and aggregation fields all have an extract column prefixed with "s" (i.e., sEntity, sScenario, sAccount, sUD1, etc.). What do these columns represent?Error launching OS v9 app
I have this error when trying to launch OS v9 app. I have no issue launching another app that's on v7.4. It is not authentication issue, I can access via BUX. The error occur when I try ClickOnce. This has happened before, these tricks worked last few times, but not this time: 1-Clear Cache: Windows + R -> rundll32 dfshim CleanOnlineAppCache 2-Delete folder 2.0 from C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\OneStream\Desktop 3-Uninstall latest Microsoft updates. Anything else I should try? Thank you. Below is more error detail:
Org-by-period
Hi all, Within our application, we have a requirement to be able to do restructurings. This means, on date A, a legal entity is owned by holding A, but on date B, it moves to a different holding company and is then consolidated under that holding company. Has anyone got this working, and if yes, could you share how? What I am running into right now: We can leverage org-by-period settings, but in that case for example opening balances become 0. Plus there is the complexity that you have to set the scenario consolidation view to Periodic, which brings challenges in rolling forward balances where there are no movements. This also means we cannot keep the consolidation setting to standard which means the performance is degrading significantly. So the question is, did anyone get this scenario workign, and can you share how? This would be grately appreciated! With kind regards, Tim Vierhout
Zero cells count
Hi, I wanted to ask about the OneStream guidelines for an acceptable proportion of zero cells. I remember reading something a few years back about a suggested maximum proportion, but I can't find that info now. I know it's important to minimize zero cells and that there are ways to do this, like using the RemoveZero command in formulas. I also get that the proportion of zero cells is just one part of the overall system performance. Could you share the specific proportion of zero cells to total cells that would typically trigger further investigation? Also, what threshold would indicate that I'm in the clear? I have one client with an existing implementation where zero cells make up about 20% of the total data cell count at the total entity level for Actual. Is that a reasonable proportion? Thanks
