Page Breaks in Excel add-in
We are having an issue with users and page breaks in the excel add-in. Example 1: A user creates a cube view connection and pulls said cube view into an excel worksheet. The result, however, does not render all the rows. There is a page break and they are forced to page through to see the rest of the rows. If I replicate these actions, I do not get the same page break, my results render all the rows on a single page. No page breaks. We went through preferences and other excel settings together to make sure our settings matched. What is causing this to happen? What other things can we try to resolve? The user must have all the rows displayed at once (no page breaks). Example 2: A user creates a quickview only to have the results get cut off with a page break. If I replicate the quickview, the return does not cut off the rows. I get everything on the sheet. Any hints, tips, etc would be most appreciated. We are trying to determine if this is a OneStream issue? Microsoft Issue? Excel Settings? For reference, we are on OS 9.0.1. thank you in advance10Views0likes1CommentCV Spreading
Hello, We want to spread data acrross multiple periods in a cube view, so we select the parent member (Year) and we expect that automatically OS applies spreading to all its base time members (months). However, we are working on a forecast scenario with the setting "Number of No Input Periods Per WF Unit" set to 4. And we don't understand how the spreading works. It seems the system calculates the difference between the amount entered at the parent member (Year) and the total amount of the closed months (the no input periods), and this calculated amount is the one that is saved at the parent member (Year), instead of the amount enetered initially. Could someone help us to clarify this calculation? Thanks!11Views0likes0CommentsTable view marks all numeric columns as dirty
Hello, I have a table view where I also allow users to save changes. In my code I'm checking for the cells that have changed using "If tvr.Item("Bonus").IsDirty()". This seems to work fine for non-numeric columns, however, I find that for the numeric columns the cells are always marked as dirty even if they are not changed. I tried different things, e.g. marking the column as decimal data type "tv.Columns(7).DataType = XFDataType.Decimal" but so far no luck. Do you have any advise how this can be solved? Thanks, Volker8Views0likes0CommentsNarrative Reporting Issue

We recently upgraded from V7.4 to V9.1 and we’re seeing an issue with the Excel Add-In. A small group of users (about five) are unable to use the Drilldown feature (the option is completely greyed out), while the rest of our users can access it without any issues. All users have been upgraded to the 9.1 Excel Add-In and every other function appears to be working correctly. Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas on how to fix it?8Views0likes0CommentsDisplay Parameters of Embedded Cube View
OneStream Community, I am having difficulty applying visible parameters after embedding a Cube View in Excel. When I embed the Cube View and select "Use Display Value" the parameters appear but the parameter member list drop down is misaligned to the applicable parameter. Additionally, when the Cube View connection is removed and re-embedded without selecting "Use Display Value" on refresh the cube view shows an object reference error, but then after selecting ok the cube view will render with no issue. Has anyone come across this?18Views0likes0CommentsQuickview Template Formatting Error
I have created a quick view template file, but each time I launch it, the font gets changed to a light gray. This obviously makes it difficult to see and I need to reformat it afterwards. Here is a sample: My QV has "preserve excel formatting" enabled, so I am uncertain what is causing a formatting override. I have tried different primary styles, but it does not stop the format from overriding after closing and reloading the spreadsheet. Here are my options: Has anyone else experienced the same issue or have any insight into how I may fix it?24Views0likes3CommentsRefreshing an emailed spreadsheet
We just upgraded from 8.4 to 9.0, and almost certain before we could email a spreadsheet with XF functions and immediately refresh the spreadsheet with button in the ribbon when already logged in. Now the Refresh Sheet button is grayed out, and now you have to "save as" the spreadsheet then refresh because the spreadsheet is in "read only" mode. I'm trying to decide if it changed with the upgrade, or if one of the Preferences settings affect this, or if we are just not remembering correctly. Any ideas or are we just wrong?114Views2likes6CommentsExcel Optimization for XFGETCELL() / XFSETCELL()
Hi all, Not sure if I'm in the right spot to post this question but here goes. I recently downloaded a word document off the OneStream site (I think from Knowledge Base) called "Optimizing Excel for Quick Views and XFGETCELL()". In that document there was a recommendation to change the default value from 2 to 4 in the Environment / Configuration Tab/ MultithreadingSettings property / "NumThreadsForGetDataCells" and "NumThreadsForSetDataCells". Has anyone else tried this yet and did you realize any performance improvement in large Excel XFGETCELL() workbooks? On a related note, does anyone have any other recommendations for optimization of Excel beyond the usual that has been presented here (i.e. Manual Calculation = on, Various preference settings, Refreshing in the Spreadsheet tool instead of in Excel, etc. etc.). I feel like we've tried everything suggested at this point, except for the NumThreadsForGetDataCells configuration. Thanks in advance for any advice.Solved370Views0likes3Comments
