FDX Cube View Connector Rule Error - Non-Numeric Value

Hi All,

I am trying to extract data from cube view using FdxExecuteCubeView function and load the result back to cube through a connector. However, when I execute the workflow dataload, a "No valid DataKeys (Scenario / Time)" error occurred. I checked the log, it pointed out to be "Non-Numeric Amount ..................... 4" error 

On the log, I am able to see the data I extracted as this :

4: Cube1, 568123, , Local, Budget, 2023, Periodic, 702151, None, BeforeAdj, None, 500100, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, 959.799999996

It seems that the data was pulled right, but just the amount cannot be recognized as numeric data

On Data Source, I did map "Amount" to the "Amount" column. I am not sure why 959.799999996 is not considered as an amount? Here is the mapping.

Here is the Rule itself. 

Case Is = ConnectorActionTypes.GetFieldList
'Return Field Name List
Dim timeMemfilter As String = "T#2023"
Dim isTimePivot As Boolean = False
Dim useGenericTimeColNames As Boolean = False
Return BRApi.Import.Data.FdxGetCubeViewOrDataUnitColumnList(si, timeMemFilter, isTimePivot, useGenericTimeColNames)
 
Case Is = ConnectorActionTypes.GetData
'Parameter Format for WorkflowProfile Text4
'CubeViewName=[YourCubeViewName],EntityDimName=[YourEntityDimensionName],EntityMF=[E#YourEntityMemberFilter],ScenarioDimName=[YourScenarioDimName],ScenarioMF=[S#YourScenarioName],TimeMF=[T#2021],Params=[N1=V1,N2=V2],Filter=[Unknown]
 
'Get Parameters Stored in Text4
Dim nvb As New NameValueFormatBuilder(api.WorkflowProfile.GetAttributeValue(api.ScenarioTypeID, SharedConstants.WorkflowProfileAttributeIndexes.Text4))
Dim cubeViewName As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("CubeViewName", String.Empty)
Dim entityDimName As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("EntityDimName", String.Empty)
Dim entityMemFilter As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("EntityMF", String.Empty)
Dim scenarioDimName As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("ScenarioDimName", String.Empty)
Dim scenarioMemFilter As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("ScenarioMF", String.Empty)
Dim timeMemFilter As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("TimeMF", String.Empty)
Dim params As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("Params", String.Empty)
Dim nvbParams As New NameValueFormatBuilder(params)
Dim includeCellTextCols As Boolean = False
Dim useStandardFactTableFields As Boolean = True
Dim useGenericTimeColNames As Boolean = True
Dim filter As String = nvb.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("Filter", String.Empty)
Dim parallelQueryCount As Integer = 8
Dim logStatistics As Boolean = False
 
'Process Data
Dim dt As DataTable = BRApi.Import.Data.FdxExecuteCubeView(si, cubeViewName, entityDimName, entityMemFilter, scenarioDimName, scenarioMemFilter, timeMemFilter, nvbParams, includeCellTextCols, useStandardFactTableFields, filter, parallelQueryCount, logStatistics)
 
If Not dt Is Nothing Then
api.Parser.ProcessDataTable(si, dt, True, api.ProcessInfo)
Else
BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, "FDX CV Params", nvb.GetFormatString())
End If
 
Return Nothing

Finally, Here is the Workflow Text 4. 

CubeViewName=[TestFDX],EntityDimName=[Entity_Test],EntityMF=[E#568123],ScenarioDimName=[Scenario_Main],ScenarioMF=[S#Budget],TimeMF=[T#2023],Params=[],Filter=[Unknown]

 

I don't think the rule or the call of the FDX is the issue as I am able to see data in my log. However, I am not sure how to resolve the non-numeric amount issue. Is it because the data saved on data table are all considered as Strings, even for amount?

Thank you!

Problem Solved. 

When FdxExecuteCubeView is run, the return data table has a special column name "V2023" rather than "Amount", which makes connector confused where the amount column is. After manually assign the column name back to Amount, issue resolved.

dt.Columns(19).ColumnName = "Amount"

Note: index 19 is amount column. This is to change the column name to "Amount"
