Spreadsheet tool in v8.5 - does it work?
Trying to confirm if the spreadsheet tool in v8.5 is working for anyone in the following manner... Created dashboard with the spreadsheet tool. The page renders fine... However, when doing something as simple as Save As, the following message is generated. Excel file is defined in the configuration. One client mentioned this, so I tested this on another client with the same results. Heard this is fixed in v9.0. Is this correct or am I missing something? Thanks for any input! Ed Puente
Hybrid Scenario – Pre-Aggregated Member Setup for Entity Summarization (V8.4)
Hi Team, I’m working on a Hybrid Scenario setup where the goal is to copy data from a source scenario to a management (MGT) scenario. This allows the MGT team to work with the data independently, using their own workflow with high-level access. So far, the base data copy works well. However, I want to summarize entity data in the target scenario so that users only see Entity parent nodes, while maintaining visibility of all other 17 dimension members (Account, UD1-UD8, etc.). To achieve this, I tried creating a dummy parent member (Entity X) in a new Entity dimension that mimics the top-level parent from the legal entity hierarchy (Entity Y). My intention was to use this structure in the Pre-Aggregated Members field in the Hybrid Scenario configuration, effectively copying: Entity X = Entity Y Unfortunately, this method worked successfully in Version 7.4, but does not appear to function as expected in Version 8.4. Maybe in version 9.0 +, we can successfully configure pre-aggregated entity mappings for Hybrid Scenarios? Can we customize this to version 8.0 and above? Would appreciate any advice or examples from the community if you’ve made this work in your applications. Thanks in advance! Chris
