Calculate if No Data
Have you ever wondered how theCalculate if No Data setting works? (I did, and Keith Berry helped me out) “Calculate if No Data = False” prevents the execution of rules on “OK,NA” (no data) entity. However, the Calc Status gets changed from “OK,NA” to “OK”, and it impacts the parent (“CN”). The “False” option is to avoid populating unused entities with rules. Calculate on “OK,NA” Force Calculate on “OK,NA” Calculate if No Data = True No rule execution No change in Calc Status Rule is run Calc Status changes to “OK” Parent becomes “CN” Calculate if No Data = False No rule execution No change in Calc Status No rule execution Calc Status changes to “OK” Parent becomes “CN”2.3KViews3likes3CommentsHo to extract a hierarchy for any dimension in Level format in OneStream?
Originally posted by Vignesh Mohan Hi, How can we extract the hierarchy of any dimension in an excel in a Level based format starting from top most level to the bottom most level for every base member ? Basically I do not want a Parent-Child format extract. Please find the attachments for the sample screen shot.2.2KViews2likes3CommentsCube Properties Best Practices!
Given a situation, determine the correct properties for the Cube. Certification Exam. Workflow The most common setting Is Top Level Cube for Workflow (Main Cube) = True Project requirements dictate Suffixes for varying Workflow by Scenario Type Assigning Suffix by Scenario Type allows the same Entity to be assigned to different Workflows in different Workflow Cube Root by Scenario Type The best practice is to configure a suffix early on for common Scenario Types regardless of whether they get used. NOTE: These settings cannot be updated once data is loaded to a specific Scenario Type. Leaving blank is defining the suffix as well. Calculation Consolidation and Translation Algorithm Type Most common setting = Standard Settings based on design decisions on how consolidation and translation to be customized. Recommendation – Only change from Standard to Custom on sporadic cases. Elimination and Translation logic should be done either on the Member using O#Elimination or C#Elimination or using Translate as part of the Finance Business Rule and assigning it to Cube. Use Standard Using Business Rules for FX Rates for Translation Algorithm Type in the above case. Calculation Properties: Business Rules Cube Properties: FX Rates Cube Properties: Set Default Currency FX Rates for the Cube. The most common settings for the Cube are shown in the screenshot. Default Currency is dependent on the currency of the application. NOTE: Triangulation is dependent on default currency Best Practice – Control the FX Rates by Scenario. Deep dive of FX Rates discussed during setting Scenario settings.

Hi All, I have a bit of an extreme question here. Is there any limit, whether system or logically, that there are too many cubes in an application? My example (which I have simplified here for illustrative purposes) relates to UD1 for Cost Centers where we have 150 entities all having unique and different cost centers. Since they each have 20 unique Cost Centers, that's potentially 3,000 Cost Centers in one dimension which feels big and very sparse. Thinking through options for how to approach, one option we are weighing is to add a separate cube for each entity and assign a separate UD1 dimension to each cube / entity so they would only have 20 Cost Centers to contend with. As it rolls up the entity structure, it would consolidate to a Summary cube that has one member called 'Total Cost Center' thereby shrinking the data unit in the top cube. Has anyone dealt with these high numbers of cubes before? My gut tells me be that this could be troublesome but sometimes it seems like others are more liberal in their cube assignments. Curious your thoughts? Also, if in another example, there were 2,000 entities rather than 150, would that change your opinion? Is there a line here? Thx, MikeSolved3.9KViews1like15CommentsCube View - Split Delimited Stored Item Text into Separate Columns
Hello - I have a cube view that currently has two columns. The first is just base members of an account hierarchy, and the second is a dynamic calc UD8 that retrieves the text 5 value for each account stored by scenario type. The UD8 is working and pulling the correct text 5 values, however some but not all of the stored item text is delimited by semicolons. How can I split this text by semicolon into separate columns in the cube view?1.5KViews1like2CommentsMember filter in Cube View
Hi Team, Under UD4 I have an XFBR string, which returns Jurisdiction - the case is I can't include there hierarchy.Base, as it needs a single entity to work. Is there any parameter like |CurrentEntity| which I can include in XFBR or do you have any idea how to solve it?Solved2.2KViews1like2CommentsData Refresh between applications for on-premise
Hello experts, How can we copy just data from an application to another? We have an on-premise setup and would like to copy data from prod environment to lower environment application. I know we can do simply do entire DB copy for that application, but it'll replace everything (like app artefacts). Is there a way we can just copy underlying data of an application? I noticed some data tables (BinaryData20xx, DataRecord20xx), but not sure if simply copying them will work. Thanks, Gaurav2.2KViews1like3CommentsQuickView Navigate without data
Hello! As a EssBase previous user, do you know if it's possible to navigate without data or at least positionning row and colums dimansions without a refresh and once all is done proceed to the refresh. Because sometimes when it makes 4 minutes to refresh a cubeview and I have to move at least 5 axis to column or row, it takes 5 x 4 minutes Thank you in advance.Solved3.7KViews1like7Comments
