Catch Button action (save/force calculte) with Eventhandler
Hello, I am currently working on some Eventhandlers to prevent a group of users to execute calculate/translate/consolidate in dedicated scenarios. This was easy to do and works fine. But we have created a button in a dashboard which combines a save action "save data for all components" with a Server Task "Force Calculated" and I don´t know how to catch this button in an Eventhandler. Any hints how to do this? Regards Martin
How do we write a BRApi code for SetDataCells?
Hello Community! I am trying to write a BRApi SetDataCells code but cant get the syntax right. Can someone please share an example? I am not sure how to get the "dataCellExs" in the below code: BRApi.Finance.Data.SetDataCells(si, dataCellExs) Thanks in advance.
FilterMembers syntax (: vs ,) and base clearing when using GetDataBufferUsingFormula
I’m working on a custom clear process that clears cube data using GetDataBufferUsingFormula() The goal is to dynamically clear data for all base members under the current POV (Entity, UD1-UD4) by expanding any parent members with the .Base suffix. In other words, I want to make sure every dimension in the POV (Entity and UDs alike) is ultimately resolved down to base members before the clear runs. Here’s a simplified idea of what I’m doing: Dim filterString As String = String.Join(":", intersectionParts) Dim fullFilter As String = $"FilterMembers({filterString})" Dim sourceBuffer As DataBuffer = api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula(fullFilter, DataApiScriptMethodType.Calculate, False, destinationInfo) The process builds a FilterMembers() expression dynamically, retrieves the buffer, and sets all cell amounts to zero to perform a clear. However, I’m facing two issues: Some child members aren’t being cleared, even when I use .Base on their parent. I’m not fully sure about the correct syntax for FilterMembers, should the dimensions be separated by colon (:) or by comma (,)? What’s the real difference between the two, especially when dealing with multiple parent members or nested intersections? For example, if I have three parent members in my intersection, I might build something like: FilterMembers(E#MyEntity.Base:U1#ProfitCenter.Base:U2#Location.Base) But it’s unclear whether that colon syntax is correct, or if it should be comma-separated, or another thing is, the use of square bracket...since some base-level data doesn’t seem to clear. Could this be a syntax issue with FilterMembers, or could the problem come from how I’m constructing or passing the intersection into GetDataBufferUsingFormula()? Any clarification or working example for multi-parent .Base expansions with FilterMembers() would be a huge help. Thanks in advance!
TransformationEventHandler - Adding new member to main and Alternate hierarchy
Is it possible to add members to both main and alternate hierarchies using EventHandler from source. Was not able to achieve using existing code. Below code is being used to add new members from source to the Flow dimension which works for main hierarchy but not adding under Alternate hierarchy, any help is appreciated. The new member needs to get added under both parents below Dim flowDimName As String = "Product_Attributes" Dim flowMF As String = "F#TopProductAttributes.Base" Dim flowLookup As Dictionary(Of String, MemberInfo) = Me.CreateMemberLookupUsingFilter(si, flowDimName, flowMF) Dim ExistflowLookup As List(Of MemberInfo) = BRApi.Finance.Metadata.GetMembersUsingFilter(si, flowDimName, flowMF, True) Dim flowAddedMembers As New Dictionary (Of String, String) 'Set the parent to add new FLOW Members under Dim tFlowColIndex As Integer = (objTransformer.TransformerDimensions(StageConstants.MasterDimensionNames.Flow).DataTableColumnIndex) + StageConstants.TransformationColumnIncrements.Target '****************Start adding new members********************************************* 'Loop over all pages in the cache If objTransformer.DataCache.Pages.Count > 0 Then 'Move to the first page objTransformer.DataCache.MoveFirstPage(si) 'BRAPI.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"Add member Yes: Line 223") 'Process All pages in the data cache For intPageNo As Integer = 0 To objTransformer.DataCache.Pages.Count - 1 'Set the current data page objTransformer.DataCache.ActivatePage(si, intPageNo) 'Process each row in the data table on this page for each dimension we are checking For Each row As DataRow In objTransformer.DataCache.CurrentPage.PageDataTable.Rows ' BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, "Line 123") 'Check the target Flow Value Dim targetFlow As String = row(tFlowColIndex) Dim flowDesc As String = "" '*** Product Attribute Description *** Dim flowMember As String = row(tFlowColIndex) 'Determine Flow Parent member Dim flowParent As String = "NA_RELEASE_STATUS" 'Determine Flow Parent member Dim flowParent As String = "NA_RELEASE_STATUS" If (Not row(tFlowColIndex) Is Nothing) Then If flowMember.XFContainsIgnoreCase("NOT_RELEASED~AUTOMOTIVE") Or flowMember.XFContainsIgnoreCase("NOTRELEASED~AUTOMOTIVE") Then flowParent = "NOT_RELEASED" ElseIF flowMember.XFContainsIgnoreCase("NOT_RELEASED~AUTOMOTIVE") Or flowMember.XFContainsIgnoreCase("NOT_RELEASED~AUTOMOTIVE") Then flowParent = "AUTOMOTIVE" End If End If
Use Data Adapter in a Different Workspace
I'm looking copy an existing data adapter (screenshot below) from the RCM solution into a different workspace and use it within BI Viewer for custom dashboards. I believe the 'GetReconsWithStatusGridView' function is stored within the 'Services' assembly folder and 'ReconService.cs' is the file within the folder that needs called. I have 'Is Shareable Workspace' set to True. Since the method query references WSMU, I need to update that in order to properly call the underlying business rule. That's the part I'm having trouble with. I've tried a wide variety of syntax to no avail. Examples: {Workspace.OFC.RCM}{GetReconsWithStatusGridView}{AccountFilter=...} {Workspace.OFC.RCM.Services}{GetReconsWithStatusGridView}{AccountFilter=...} {Workspace.OFC.RCM.Services.ReconService}{GetReconsWithStatusGridView}{AccountFilter=...} Does anyone know the proper syntax to place in my copied data adapter? Are there any other steps I need to take to properly reference this business rule? Thanks!FDX filter not working
I am trying to extract cube data using FdxExecuteDataUnit however, the filter does not seem to be filtering any data. Any ideas what the issue could be? I am seeing multiple flow members in the data table. Is there also a way to do all base members for a dimension? Dim dt As DataTable Dim cbName As String = "FinConsol" Dim ent As String = "E#124" Dim cons As String = "C#Local" Dim scen As String = "S#Actual" Dim time As String = "T#2025M1" Dim view As String = "V#YTD" Dim filter As String = "Origin='Import' AND Flow='EndBalInp' AND Account = 'NetInc' AND UD7 = 'GL_Load'" dt = BRApi.Import.Data.FdxExecuteDataUnit(si, cbName, ent, cons, ScenarioTypeId.Actual, scen, time, view, True, filter, 1, False)Call Assembly Business Rule from another Workspace in a Data Management Step
I'm looking to call a business rule that is located in a different workspace within Assemblies but am unsuccessful. The first screenshot below shows my DM step configuration. The business rule I'm trying to call is an out-of-the-box rule within the Financial Close solution. The second screenshot shows the workspace (namespace prefix = OFC), the assembly (RCM) and the business rule (DiscoverRecons). The third screenshot shows the tool tip when you hover over "Business Rules" on the DM step. I've attempted many variations of the yellow highlighted syntax, always returning an invalid business rule error. The fourth screenshot shows the out-of-the-box DM step I'm emulating. I used this to verify the parameters I'm passing in work which they do. I've ensured that both the current workspace and OFC workspaces are sharable and include the shared workspace names. Does anyone know the correct syntax to call this rule into my DM step?
