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?

Hi All, I'm trying to set up some Excel templates for the uploading Budget and Forecast data. I'm pretty happy with the Excel Template side, with the named range (XFD), and specific header formats, etc. However, I'm a bit lost on the Data Source set up, I get that you have to Allow Dynamic Excel Loads set to True, but what about the rest of the set up? Do I choose Delimited or Fixed file? It feels like this Data Source section is really for flat files, as it always wants to know the column number. I've tried importing the Excel into the Data Source in the same way I would for a csv file, but it just shows up as xml gibberish in the top box. It definitely feels like I'm missing something.SolvedBeeswing7717 hours agoNew Contributor III5.1KViews2likes4Commentsloading sub-ledger data into OneStream
Hi Community :) We are currently in development with regard to loading sub-ledger data into OneStream, but the balance specifications are so granular that we currently have them split into about 10 distinct loads. Because of this setup, our end users are being forced to manually click "Load and Transform" 10+ times to get a complete sub-ledger balance loaded for the period. Obviously, this is tedious, creates a poor user experience, and introduces a lot of room for human error. We want to streamline this. What is best practice to do this?jeffvdt18 hours agoNew Contributor III19Views0likes1CommentCAMT.053 Files (ISO20022)
Has anyone imported CAMT.053 files from their bank into OneStream? We are embarking on an Account Reconciliation project and trying to accommodate our international sites. We've been told this is tricky and to stick with the BAI format, but that will be problematic as we integrate more global entities.Brooks18 hours agoNew Contributor III4Views0likes0CommentsSequence 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.Solveddanszczepanski1 day agoNew Contributor III36Views0likes2CommentsScheduled 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.55Views0likes2CommentsHow to "Import" "in parallel" via a "OneStream Connector" to a "Data Warehouse"?
Please share your practical advice to help us meet the new Integration requirements. - I couldn't find a OneStream KB/post nor a good result from free Gemini. - We're using SAAS on v9.0 to move to v10 upon its upcoming release. Thank you folks for sharing your expertise.65Views1like2CommentsFeb 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?daylaking5 days agoNew Contributor II59Views0likes4CommentsIncluding 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!shivani38012 days agoNew Contributor II114Views1like3CommentsUnable 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?Solvedjackwagner1119 days agoNew Contributor118Views0likes2Comments
