Need help on Clear Specific member data
Hi Team, I need your support regarding an issue I am facing with the dashboard-driven data clearing logic. Requirement: When specific Dimension/Members are selected in the dashboard, the attached code is expected to execute in Preview and Clear modes to remove the corresponding data. Issue Observed: The code runs successfully during execution. I can see the log message indicating that the data is “cleared.” However, the actual data is not getting cleared from the system. This suggests that while the process is triggering correctly, the clearing operation is not impacting the underlying data as expected. Could you please review and provide your suggestions on what might be causing this issue or any potential gaps in the approach? Let me know if you need additional details or logs from my end. Thanks in advance for your help. api.Data.SetDataCell(memberScript, amount, isNoData, isDurableCalculatedData) Imports System Imports System.Collections.Generic Imports System.Data Imports System.Data.Common Imports System.Globalization Imports System.IO Imports System.Linq Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic Imports OneStream.Finance.Database Imports OneStream.Finance.Engine Imports OneStream.Shared.Common Imports OneStream.Shared.Database Imports OneStream.Shared.Engine Imports OneStream.Shared.Wcf Imports OneStream.Stage.Database Imports OneStream.Stage.Engine Namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.Finance.EPM_Clear_Specific_Scenarios Public Class MainClass Public Function Main(si As SessionInfo, globals As BRGlobals, api As FinanceRulesApi, args As FinanceRulesArgs) As Object Try '======================================== ' VALID FUNCTION TYPE '======================================== If api.FunctionType <> FinanceFunctionType.CustomCalculate Then Return Nothing End If '======================================== ' PARAMETERS '======================================== Dim entityName As String = GetParam(args, "Entity") Dim scenarioName As String = GetParam(args, "ParamSScenario") Dim timeName As String = GetParam(args, "Time") Dim con as String="Local" Dim accountName As String = GetParam(args, "Account") Dim flowName As String = GetParam(args, "Flow") Dim originName As String = GetParam(args, "Origin") Dim icName As String = GetParam(args, "IC") Dim ud1 As String = GetParam(args, "UD1") Dim ud2 As String = GetParam(args, "UD2") Dim ud3 As String = GetParam(args, "UD3") Dim ud4 As String = GetParam(args, "UD4") Dim ud5 As String = GetParam(args, "UD5") Dim ud6 As String = GetParam(args, "UD6") Dim ud7 As String = GetParam(args, "UD7") Dim ud8 As String = GetParam(args, "UD8") Dim mode As String = GetParam(args, "Mode", "EXECUTE").ToUpper() Dim confirmDelete As String = GetParam(args, "ConfirmDelete", "NO").ToUpper() api.LogMessage("=== DATABUFFER CLEAR START ===") api.LogMessage("Mode=" & mode & " | ConfirmDelete=" & confirmDelete) '======================================== ' VALIDATION '======================================== If String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(accountName) Then Throw New Exception("Account parameter is required.")

Decimal column is always dirty
Hi, I need to check in a Table View if certain column values are dirty and I've noticed that when you call the IsDirty() function on any decimal type column (and this only happens on that type), it always returns 'true' even though no changes took place. Because of this i need to manually parse the value and check if the originalValue is different from the current value. At this point I was wondering if this behaviour is intended or not, it seems odd that IsDirty() returns the correct value for every type of value BUT a decimal one. Any clarification on this matter is appreciated, thanks in advance. 🙂
How to Recall Another Business Rule into a Different Business Rule
Hello, Trying to build a business rule to send an email once a button is pressed. The business rule that I'm trying to use is encrypted and I cannot get into it so I was trying to figure out a way to recall that business rule to check if a Lease change status to submitted. I read something about Referenced Assemblies, but I'm not fully sure if that's right or what I even code it as in my current business rule. This is the BR I'm trying to call into my current rule Thanks, Will
TransformRuleInfo changes v9.x
Hello, With the new changes to the Stage and Transform tables in v9.x there has been a change to the tables with a new RuleIdentityId identity field and a parallel change to the TransformRuleInfo object. Is there any documentation or best practices for how to use the API to handle this new parameter and ensure adding rules dynamically via BR adheres to the new identity field requirements?
Pull in Variables from another BR
I'm trying to call a helper BR that I wrote to pull in two variables to denote our environment, but I'm getting an error message saying the extender business rule.MainClass is undefined. Background: Our GL has three environments, Dev, Prj (test) and PRD. As we promoted projects up in OneStream, I have to edit the BRs to reference the different environments. It's a pain when it comes to the SQL because the environment is part of the tableName.fieldName. Goal: to have one helper BR that has the environment variables in it and all other BRs reference this rule so I no longer need to edit them from environment to environment. The helper rule in DEV would reference the DEV tables, the helper in PRD would reference the production tables, etc. 'test code to pull in environment variables from a Helper 03-05-2026 'Define reference to business rule Dim JDE_EnvironmentHelper As New OneStream.BusinessRule.Extender.JDE_EnvironmentHelper.MainClass '<-- Update ReferencedBRName with your Business Rule 'Call function within referenced business rule If Not JDE_EnvironmentHelper Is Nothing Then Dim returnVariable As String = JDE_EnvironmentHelper.GetConnectionString(si, gateWay, envTbl) '<-- Update ReferencedBRFunctionName, param1..paramX, returnVariable type End If ' End test code 03-05-2026 The above code* is from the Connector rule that is to receive the variables, gateWay and envTbl. The error I get when I validate it is: Error at line 37: Type 'OneStream.BusinessRule.Extender.JDE_EnvironmentHelper.MainClass' is not defined. This code is directly copied from the OneStream snippets (modified for my BR name, of course) What am I doing wrong? Am I even on the right track? *line 3 above is line 37 in my BREvent based Scheduling
Hi, Did anyone implement event-based scheduler through workflow event handler. We have a business rule to extract Chart of Accounts for a Parent Member. This extract needs to be done only after the period close. We need to implement an event-based scheduler where the extract should be done after the period close automatically.
