Updating Time Zone from UTC in Dashboards
Does anyone know how to change the time zone used in OneStream Dashboards from UTC to a different time zone (e.g., Eastern Time)? We’re implementing for a client based in Eastern Time, and we’d like dashboard times to reflect that for end users. Any guidance or recommended approaches would be appreciated. Thanks!
CVR and GetDataCell Issue in cube views
Hello, I currently have a cube where I am having an issue calculating variances. The row has GetDataCell(CVR(Row1)+CVR(Row2)) and Column is has T#POV, T#POVPrior12, GetDatacell(T#Pov-T#POVPrior12). When I run the report, the first two columns run correctly for T#POV and T#POVPriorYear, but the third column where the two get data cells meet does not calculate correctly. I can't get it to work on a column override either as I know there is a order of operation for the GetDataCell. I want to keep the report as dynamic as possible, is there a way this can be achieved without breaking the columns out and manually doing the overrides?
Get the name of the current container of an embedded dashboard
Hi everyone, In a dashboard that I'm developing I have multiple dashboards embedded into one another. Within one of the embedded dashboards I have a button that is associated to a dashbaord extender rule. When the button is clicked, I need the rule to retrieve the name of the dashboard that is currently the container of the embedded dashboard where the button is placed (see scheme below) Primary dashboard Embedded 1 Embedded 2 Embedded 3 -> button I see there are two rules (args.PrimaryDashboard and args.EmbeddedDashboard) that allow to retrieve the name of the primary dashboard OR the name of the current dashboard (Embedded 3 in the example). I need to retrieve the name of Embedded 2. I couldn't find any resource that explained if and how to do that. Does anyone know how to do that? Thank you
Bi-Viewer - Title and Legend
Bi-viewer appears to be limited on font size and type in version 8.5. So, what I've done is created anpng file through paint and chose the Load option in my Title in my bi-viewer to work around the original legend that is too small. What this allows me to do is have the font whatever size I want and I can make my legend line up with my bar chart. Looks beautiful on the client, but as always, the browser requires something "special". Is there anyway that I can use this thought pattern to make it appear on the browser. The Load function only looks at my cdrive which will not work on the browser. I tried uploading it to Data Explorer to get it on Onestream and then using that url in my image, then attaching my image to the same dashboard where my bi-viewer runs but it doesn't embed it into my chart so browser doesn't like that either. Regardkess if what I try, I just get the picture icon where my Title should be. Any ideas? ....even if it's something I've not mentioned here? Thanks ahead of time.
Referencing Image files in different workspaces
Hi, I am trying to reference a file location using an xfbr string in a image component. When the image component is configured like this: File Source Type - Workspace File Url or Full File Name - <FileName.png> This works to reference the other workspace. However when I use an XFBR String Service to return the exact same <FileName.png> it does nothing. I have also tried <Workspace.FileName.png> & <Workspace.MaintenanceUnit.FileName.png> without luck. The idea is to conditionally return different image files.Order rows in Report component
Hi, this might be an easy one, but I haven't worked with Report components before. I have a Report component which is used in a dashboard. All working fine except that I would like the rows to be ordered based on the values on one of the columns. In the example below, I would like to order the rows based on the Lease Start Date. I have tried updating the data adapter that is assigned to the report, but the ordering of rows in the data adapter seems to be ignored by the Report, so that must be something in the Report overriding the rows order. Any suggestion is appreciated.
OS V9 Excel Add-in Parameters Feature
Hi all, I've been playing with this feature for a bit and it would appear that if you've made a cube view connection to a CV that contains parameters based on "Member Dialog", those parameters don't seem to work as expected. The resulting worksheet does create a space for those parameters but in the cell where you would select your member, there is no dropdown available to open and choose. The cell is completely blank. Upon refresh, I am prompted for those member dialog parameters but even the result I choose is not returned to display on the sheet. Doesn't seem to be any issues if the parameter is based on a Member Filter. Am I doing something wrong or is the use of Member Dialog parameters in Excel add-in simply not possible? There is nothing in the existing documentation that I can find that discusses this. Attaching a screen capture of the Excel results:Application Reports - duplicated dimensions
Wondering if anyone else is seeing duplicated dimension IDs in some of the built-in Application Reports (the example below is based on the "Member Property Changes Audit Report") We're on V9.1 but have seen the same issue in 7 and 8 as well. The results do vary depending on which of the duplicated dimensions you select. If you've also seen this, has OneStream provided any explanation as to why this exists?
