Pivot Grid Modern Browser Experience allow additional default fields
Our team would like an enhancement to the Web version of the client (Version 9.0.0) as the Modern Browser Experience does not allow us to use the default pivot grid views we created. The default pivot grid views we created work great in the Desktop version, but they do not work for our Browser version because we exceed the number of allowed default fields. This enhancement would allow our users to save time with the ability to use default views, instead of needing to add in the fields manually each time.
SetLiteralParameterValue issue on web
In our first workflow step, we set the value of a literal parm using dashboard extender and then in next step use that parm in a DM job to export data based on that parm value. On windows client, our DM job works fine but when we try it on web, it does not find the value of the parm and errors out. Can someone please share any experience with this kind of setup and how to make it work on web?
Tabbed Dashboard
Hi, I have Dashboard with tabbed embedded reports. for example, MainDashboard - Tab1, Tab2, Tab3. Everything works fine when the user clicks on Tab of their choice for the fiscal year 2026. For Historical data I would like to show the same report for with changed tab. for example, MainDashboard - Tab1, Tab2, Tab4 for the he fiscal year 2025. If the user changes the Scenario from 2026 to 2025 or vice versa the dashboard report tab3/tab4 shows/hide based on FY. How can I achieve at the workflow level? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Inconsistent File Opening from Dashboard → File Explorer (Windows Client)
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to check if anyone has experienced something similar. We have a dashboard that directs users to folders in File Explorer. The navigation itself works as expected and correctly opens the folder location. However, users are experiencing inconsistent behavior when trying to open files from there — sometimes the files open normally, and other times nothing happens (no error message). If users navigate directly through File Explorer and open the same file, it works without any issues. This is happening in the OneStream Windows desktop application (not browser), and permissions don’t appear to be the issue since access works normally outside the dashboard. Has anyone encountered similar behavior when launching files from a dashboard? If so, was this a known issue or did you find an effective workaround? Appreciate any insights — thank you!Split hierarchy into 2 dimensions to ensure retroactivity
Hi everyone, We are currently developing a planning solution in OneStream for a client who has requested that the Cost Center dimension (and its related nodes) be updateable every year, while still maintaining full retroactivity when users need to view reports for prior years. We have considered two possible approaches: OPTION 1 Each year, load a new Cost Center hierarchy associated only with that specific year. When users want to analyze historical data, they simply select the hierarchy corresponding to the year they are reviewing. The main drawback of this approach is that, over time, multiple versions of the Cost Center hierarchy will accumulate, which could potentially impact maintainability or performance in the long term. OPTION 2 Separate Cost Centers and their nodes into two distinct dimensions. Introduce a technical member in the Account dimension and use a data entry form (maintained annually) where users enter a value of “1” at the intersection of each Cost Center and its corresponding Node. Source data is initially loaded only at the Cost Center level (using a dummy member for the Node dimension). At the end of each cycle, a Business Rule is executed to populate the Node dimension based on this mapping. This approach avoids unnecessary data duplication, but it introduces additional process complexity and reliance on manual maintenance. Does anyone have experience with similar requirements, alternative approaches or feedbacks on this topic? Thank you in advance!
How to read csv file from Documents/users folder?
Hi, I have been trying to read a csv file that is in Documents/Users/userxxxx folder. Not able to make it work. Getting an error. Below is the code Dim FileName As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("Param1", String.Empty) Dim sourceFolder As String = $"Documents/Users/{StringHelper.RemoveSystemCharacters(si.UserName,False,False)}" Dim fullPath = sourceFolder & "/" & "abc.csv" Below is the error Could not find file 'P:\Program Files\OneStream Software\OneStreamAppRoot\OneStreamApp\Documents\Users\userxxxx\abc.csv'. Any idea why this is not working? Thank you, Mikki
