Sequence not performing appropriately in WF
Hello, I have Product and Customer allocations that I would like to be ran on the process step of the Workflow. The weird challenge that I am running into is that when I run each step of the sequence on its own, the allocations are executing as expected. When I run all of the allocations with one sequence/in the Workflow, my allocations are producing errant results. (E.g. my allocated-in amount in is only a small fraction of my allocated-out amount.) Is there a property I am missing on a sequence or workflow that may cause problems if not handled appropriately? I am calling the sequence with a No Calculate in the WF, which executes a handful of Finance BR Calcs.
Scheduled tasks not running
Hi, I have 12 separate schedule tasks that is set to run monthly on calendar days 1-15. It runs every 2 hours starting from 12AM. (Next is 2AM, 4AM, and so on) I am encountering inconsistent issues with 6PM and 12AM where it does not kick off at all on random days. I've checked the configurations and can confirm it is set up right. Any idea what's causing the inconsistent failure to run? I'm in central time if that helps.Feb Actuals divided in half to import to Jan
There was no Jan close, so we want to divide Feb actuals by 2 to get a Jan actuals load. The loads are SQL from HFM and Database Whse, so it isn't done with a flat file csv. When I looked at the Feb Import that are 1214 lines. How can we take that Feb import, divide by 2, and import in Jan Actuals? First thought was to create a QuickView then upload back into OneStream. Also looked at a copy Business Rule but calculations are needed for the data. Any ideas/thoughts?
Managing Group Company Exits in the User Workflow View
Hello everyone, We have several companies that have been sold or dissolved. To simplify users’ work, we would like to stop displaying workflows for these entities for periods when they no longer exist within our group. I’m not sure if this is the recommended approach, so please feel free to share your best practices with me. For my part, I have several ideas: Revoke access to the workflowProfile of the relevant entities via the access permissions of the users responsible for importing the data. Use a Business Rule to retrieve the name of the entity linked to the user’s workflow and, using its Entity ID, retrieve the date the company left the group, which is stored in Text6. This way, I could either display no periods (meaning there would be no workflow), display all 12 periods, or display only the X months of the year the user was in the group. I can retrieve the ID of the entity assigned to the workflow, but I can’t retrieve the data in Text6. I get the error “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.” If args.MemberListArgs.MemberListName.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("IsFormValidForEntity") Then '-- Usage: T#Root.CustomMemberList(BRName=JR_MemberList, MemberListName=IsFormValidForEntity, CVName=[RLS010 Local - Compte de résultat]) 'T#|WFTime| Dim WfGUID As guid = si.WorkflowClusterPk.ProfileKey 'obtient la clé de profil du workflow actuel de l'utilisateur Dim EntityList As List(Of WorkflowProfileEntityInfo) = BRApi.Workflow.Metadata.GetProfileEntities(si, WfGUID) Dim entityId As Integer For Each eInfo As WorkflowProfileEntityInfo In EntityList api.LogMessage("Workflow Entity:" & eInfo.EntityName) entityId = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si, DimType.Entity.Id, eInfo.EntityName) api.LogMessage("entityId :" & entityId) Next Dim entityText6 As String = api.entity.Text(entityId,6).ToString '<-- Error Object reference not set to an instance of an object. api.LogMessage("entityText6 :" & entityText6) Do you have any advice on the best way to handle an entity’s departure from the group, while retaining or not retaining the ability to access its previous workflows? Sincerely,Including Journal Entries from Different Origin Member in Account Reconciliation Discovery
Hi Community, I’m working on an Account Reconciliation solution where I need to ensure posted journal entries balances are also included in the Account Reconciliation discovery process. Currently, by design the Discovery process only pulls trial balance information already imported and validated in the Stage. Therefore, I wanted to check if there’s a recommended, or best practice approach, to accomplish this requirement. Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for your help!
Unable to Complete Workflow due to Security Access
Hello OneStream Community, I am running into an issue with the ability to complete a workflow with a dashboard button as a test security user. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a consolidation status dashboard, which is attached to the top-most workflow node for a given month. My issue is as a test end-user I keep receiving the following error message when attempting to complete the Workspace chevron and move on to the certify step of the workflow. The security settings for the workflow are very simple, so it's not clear what could be the issue here. Is there another way I could get around this?
Import with Vertical Extensibility or Extensible Dimensions
Hi, I can’t get my data import to work with vertical extensibility, and I’d like to understand how this situation is supposed to be handled. In short, the import validation fails on accounts that are extended for an entity. The entity belongs to a cube that is vertically extended from the primary workflow cube. Detailed situation I have extended dimensions and two cubes that use those dimensions. CubeParent contains a parent entity with dimensions applied. The parent entity resides in the parent entity dimension. CubeChild has dimensions that are extended from the parent’s dimensions. The child entity resides in the child entity dimension. As a result, each cube has its own unique entity dimension containing its respective entity. Additional configuration details: CubeChild has Is Top Level Cube For Workflow set to False. CubeParent is the top-level cube and has the Workflow Profile created from it. The child entity has been added as a child of the parent entity in the parent’s entity dimension (see screenshot). CubeParent has the Cube References tab configured correctly. Data import issue I have configured a data source that reads from a CSV file. The data source successfully loads the CSV into the staging area. However, the transformation step fails. The failure occurs only for the child entity’s extended account, not accounts in the ParentCube account dimension. The transformation rules when created are associated with a cube. If the cube is not that of the workflow profile the transformation rule does not appear in the import configuration step. Question How should data be imported for an entity that exists in a workflow that has different dimensional detail than the cube it belongs to because it is using vertical extensibility?
Data Import Step - Load validated records
We are looking for a load into a financial cube. Mappings are already done in the source system. Is there a way to load records that pass the validation and write the other records to an error protocol. The idea would be that not the whole load is rejected but only records that contain errors, those being written to an error protocol. Many thanks for your support
