CubeView Member Expansion based on 'AllowInput=True'

Hi Team,

I am trying to create an Input CubeView with an expansion based on whether the 'Allow Input' setting is set to True for our UD5 Dimension Members. 

To give a little bit of background, we are using the UD5 dimension for our Customer Codes. The setup is based on the different regions (which have their own cube) and the basis of the structure is captured under 'Customers'. The regions can have the flexibility to add more detail by adding members under this basis structure in their dimension:

We have an Input CubeView that is currently set to .Base (from the dimension that belongs to the Cube we are inputting for). However, a member might be a Base member in one dimensions (however, we don't want and cannot input here), but a parent member in the other. That is why I am trying to create an expansion based on the Allow Input setting. However, when I try "Member.Base.Where(AllowInput=True) it is unfortunately not working. 

Does anyone have any idea how we can solve this (or maybe if we can suppress these members)?

Thank you in advance!

    You can create a custom member list to do this for you. The code below should do the trick.

    Create a Finance Business Rule (this one is called 'MY_CustomMemberList' and the member list is called 'Customers' you can rename these to what ever you like)

    Imports System
    Imports System.Collections.Generic
    Imports System.Data
    Imports System.Data.Common
    Imports System.Globalization
    Imports System.IO
    Imports System.Linq
    Imports System.Windows.Forms
    Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
    Imports OneStream.Finance.Database
    Imports OneStream.Finance.Engine
    Imports OneStream.Shared.Common
    Imports OneStream.Shared.Database
    Imports OneStream.Shared.Engine
    Imports OneStream.Shared.Wcf
    Imports OneStream.Stage.Database
    Imports OneStream.Stage.Engine
    
    Namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.Finance.MY_CustomMemberList
    	Public Class MainClass
    		Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As FinanceRulesApi, ByVal args As FinanceRulesArgs) As Object
    			Try
    				Select Case api.FunctionType
    					
    					Case Is = FinanceFunctionType.MemberListHeaders
    						Dim objMemberListHeaders As New List(Of MemberListHeader)
    						objMemberListHeaders.Add(New MemberListHeader("Customers"))
    						Return objMemberListHeaders
    						
    					Case Is = FinanceFunctionType.MemberList
    						
    						If args.MemberListArgs.MemberListName.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Customers") Then
    
    							'Example: U5#Root.CustomMemberList(BRName=MY_CustomMemberList, MemberListName=[Customers])
    							
    							'Prepare Member List Header & List of Member Infos
    							Dim memberListHeader As New MemberListHeader(args.MemberListArgs.MemberListName)
    							Dim memberList As New List(Of Member)
    
    							Dim d As [Dim] = api.Dimensions.GetDim("Customers")
    							Dim UD5BaseMembers As List(Of MemberInfo) = api.Members.GetMembersUsingFilter(d.DimPk, "U5#Customers.Base")
    							
    							'Loop through each member and only add if AllowInput = True
    							For Each m As MemberInfo In UD5BaseMembers
    								If api.UD5.AllowInput(m.Member.MemberId) Then 
    									memberList.Add(m.Member)
    								End If
    							Next
    
    							'Return Member List
    							Return New MemberList(memberListHeader, memberList)
    
    						End If
    						
    				End Select
    
    				Return Nothing
    			Catch ex As Exception
    				Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex))
    			End Try
    		End Function
    	End Class
    End Namespace

     

    Call the custom member list in your cube view using the following:

    U5#Root.CustomMemberList(BRName=MY_CustomMemberList, MemberListName=[Customers])
