Clear data from Workflow import
Hey everyone -
How do I clear data from these workflow manual imports automatically?
Right now, I've been going through each month one by one. Wondering if there is a BR that can run them all together and clear up data from those specific imports and time dimension.
Here are the steps I want to follow:
Navigate to import that needs to be cleared > Clear > Re-Transform > Validate > Load Cube

Did you try using the Workflow Batch Multi Period Processing screen?
Oh. I didn't see this before. Very useful to know!!
You can create an Extender rule that mimics a load using the following.
Dim impProcessInfo As LoadTransformProcessInfo = BRApi.Import.Process.ExecuteParseAndTransform(si, wfCurrentClusterPk, "filename or dm name", Nothing, TransformLoadMethodTypes.Replace, SourceDataOriginTypes.FromFileUpload, True)You can change the loadmethodtypes to do replaces. I've not tried that with a blank file though.
Hi ckattookaran
I'm not intending to load a blank file. I want the WF to "Clear" data by itself, and run the validation-load steps period by period.
Last night, I figured out a different solution and it works. It's mainly defining the workflow (using as WFUnitClusterPk) and using brapi.import.process to execute the various steps (Clear Data, Retransform, Validate, Load).
Your question was how can I clear the data from workflow profiles, not how can I automate the load process!
Are you saying that there is a method in brapi.import.process to clear the data alone?
