How can I force a delimited data source to not skip blank values in an Amount field?
I have a situation where I'm trying to load trial balances from QuickBooks. The source file I'm receiving has three comma-separated columns - Account+Description, Debit, Credit. QuickBooks has a quirky output format where some debit balances are shown as "$-" (presumably to represent 0.00), leaving the credit column blank. If there is a credit value in the credit column, the debit column is blank. This is messing with OneStream's numeric processing of the Amount column when Amount is mapped to Column 2 (Debit column). It is rejecting the "$-" field values and the blank field values as Non-Numeric Amounts (verified in the XFL log file for the load). I can successfully replace '$-' with 0 using the Substitute Settings in the data source's Amount dimension, but I cannot figure out how to replace 'no value' in the Debit column with 0 (so that the valid Credit column values don't get skipped). I'm using a Parser Business Rule to return the net amount (debit column 2 minus credit column 3) for the Amount value, but the records where the Debit column is blank never make it to the parser rule (e.g. accounts 1170, 2000, and 2002 in the screen capture of the source file) because of OneStream's built-in Non-Numeric Amount preprocessing. I've tried various combinations in the Substitution Strings settings, hoping to find one that replaces the empty field with '0', but with no luck. I've tried all of the following Find combinations (the '$-' does successfully produce a 0 by the way). And yes, I know the documentation lists |Null| as a valid Replace value, not a Find value, but I thought I would try it in the Find string just to see if it worked: $-^ ^$- |Null|^$- $-^|Null|Include Site Certificate when using HTTPClient
I'm trying to write a BR that returns data using HTTPClient. I've tested out the api.open-meteo.com example and can successfully pull data from this site. The site that I am trying to query requires a site certificate for authentication and I'm not sure how to tell my BR to use the site certificate that is already installed on the SIC server. On the SIC server, I can manually run the query to the source site via a web browser which prompts me to select the appropriate certificate. Has anyone been able to include a site certificate to a HTTPClient request? Thanks, Cosimo
Annotation Matrix load
Hi, we would like to know if it is possible to load multiple columns of amounts and annotations as a matrix load ( we have 3 date columns and 3 columns for amounts and it would be an account matrix as each column would go to a different account). We are able to load a matrix load where one column is an annotation and there are multiple amount columns, but when there are multiple annotation and amount columns, we have not been successful. See screenshot. The date columns would be loaded as annotations, the Begbal, Pmt, Interest columns to amount. Each column would be going to a different account. Please advise, thank you
Monthly Data from D365 into OneStream
Is there an interface from Dynamics 365 into OneStream? I have seen some comments mention direct connection with D365 using oData API. We have several business units across the world that will need to push month end data from D365. Is there a way they can just push the data from their end or would it have to come from OneStream to get the data?Unable to Post Journals to Locked Entity Despite Central Journal Input Step
Hello Everyone, I’m encountering an issue in OneStream when trying to post a journal via central workflow to an entity whose workflow is locked. Normally, central journal input steps are designed to allow journal postings even when the entity’s workflow is locked. In my case, I have configured a central journal input step within the workflow profile of the entity, so I would expect journal entries to still be accepted despite the lock. However, when attempting to post the journal, I receive an error indicating that the entity is locked. Has anyone experienced a similar issue where central journal input steps do not bypass the workflow lock as expected? Are there specific configuration points or workflow setup details that could explain this behavior?Why 2+ Import of a Matrix Flat File of One Workflow Profile to Load Certain Months into a Data Cube?
For the first Import of a Workflow Profile, data in certain months in a "Matrix flat file" failed to be loaded into a Data Cube. For the second+ Import of that Workflow Profile, data in those months in that "Matrix flat file" could be loaded into a Data Cube. - In summary, data in certain months in a "Matrix flat file" must be Imported > 1 time of a Workflow Profile to be loaded into a Data Cube. Please share the root causes for v9.2. Thank you, SMEs.
Best practice for filtering vStageSourceAndTargetDataWithAttributes by Workflow
Hi everyone, I am building a query using the vStageSourceAndTargetDataWithAttributes view and I want to ensure I am retrieving the latest figures for a specific Entity and Time period. I have a few questions regarding the best way to filter this: Filtering by Wfk: I know that hardcoding a GUID for the Wfk (Workflow Key) is risky because it can change between environments or if a profile is reset. What is the recommended way to dynamically filter for a specific Workflow Profile? Should I be joining on the WorkflowProfileHierarchy table/view to filter by ProfileName? Latest Figures: If multiple imports have occurred, does filtering by a specific Wfk automatically ensure I am seeing the "latest" iteration of the data, or is there a better field to use for partitioning/ranking the results? Any code snippets or best practices for making these stage queries robust would be highly appreciated.Need to send data from OneStream to Snowflake using an existing SIC ODBC connection
Hello, What is the best way to send data from OneStream to Snowflake using an existing SIC ODBC connection? Currently I am using SIC ODBC connection to query data from Snowflake and now I would like to send data back to Snowflake.
loading 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?
