Calculate values in different scenarios
Hi all, I tried to issue an api.Data:calculate with the following (fake) formula : A#ACCXXX:F:MYFLOW:S#MYSCEN = A#ACC001:F#CHI:S#ACT Of course OS complains because I'm reading from the current Scenario (ACT) but I want to write in a different Scenario that implies a different Data Unit (is it ?) While being in ACT scenario, if I would switch to DataBuffers to write in the destination Scenario (is it?) Could someone point me in the right direction ? I did this, but looks like it doesn't write a **bleep** ! Dim _srcDC As DataCell = api.Data.GetDataCell("A#ACC001:F#CHI:S#ACT") Dim _targetDB As New DataBuffer() Dim _dcNew As DataCell = New DataCell(_srcDC) _dcNew.SetScenario(api, "MYSCEN") ' This WON'T CHANGE <=================== _dcNew.SetAccount(api, "ACCXXX") ' This Change _dcNew.SetFlow(api, "MYFLOW") ' This Change _targetDB.SetCell(si, _dcNew) api.Data.SetDataBuffer(_targetDB, _destinationInfo) In the end, works fine... just doesn't change the Scenario... :-/ What am I doing wrong ? Thanks in advance for your help FabioGCompilation Chain issues
Hi all, I wrote a bunch of BRules and a couple of Assemblies (in different workspaces) that work together to perform calculations. So in the end I have a dependency chain like this: BR => Assembly => Assembly Things works like a charm. Sometimes, after I made changes to an Assembly, I get a weird error saying that OneStream cannot find my assembly. While this is true when it cannot compile correctly (due to errors), it doesn't make sense to me when it compiles fine. Even if I compile my assemblies before I run the BRules, sometimes it happens. I'm trying to find out an explanation and I thought that: I run the BRule and OneStream think that Assembly1 - a dependence - is "old", so.... OneStream start compiling Assembly1, and, while compiling it, OneStream think that Assembly2 - a dependence - is "old", so.... OneStream start compiling Assembly2 Maybe these compilations are running async and in parallel... And, maybe, the last compilation takes too much time, taking the first one returning the error. This is just an idea that could explain this issue, but I'm quite sure this is the right way: when I started working on OneStream, my code wasn't affected, IMHO because the assemblies were small enough to be compiled in a reasonable time. But now they are growing up, and the compilation time is growing too. In any case, I'm wondering it there's a way to solve this annoying issue: I often have to (re)launch the same BRule and, on a customer's perspective, seeing a compilation error (even if fake) doesn't make a good impression. Thanks FabioGXFString inside an Assembly
Hi all, while building new classes inside a Workspace's Assembly, I'd like to get Strings in specific languages. On components, we use "XFString(<stringName>)" to get the localized string, in the User's language. How can I accomplish the same thing inside a method ? I mean, which is the equivalent for XFString inside - let's say - BRApi ? Or should I really get the localizations from the DB Table ? Thanks for Your help Regards FabioG
Invalid Cells in Cube Views
Hello everyone! I am very new to the industry and OneStream and I really need some help to kick start my application building journey! Currently, I am trying to test out the capabilities of OneStream using the scenario stated below: I have one central division that will split into two 'teams'. For example, Division_1 and Division_2, both teams have handle their own projects. For example, for D_2, under Project 50A there are mini projects like 50A001 and 50A002. For D_1, under the same project 50A, they handle other projects like M0001 and M0002. So what I am trying to achieve is: Tracking their expenses, so they will roll up to the central Division. E.g. Division 1, project 50A, spent $1,000, Division 2, project 50A spent $1,500. So the rolled up amount would be $2,500 and the ability to breakdown to the specific items. If possible (which it is) Division 1 handle projects that are "Approved" so the expenses are actual. Division 2 handle projects that are "Awaiting Approval" so the expenses are 'Budget'. SO the main issue i am facing right now is that I am unable to manually input data into the cube view that I created and I don't know why. I checked all the settings which allows inputs = True. I suspect it's my design but yeah I need help please. Below are the photos regarding to my issue. Would really appreciate any help! And advice in designing an application from scratch! Thank you :) Updated: Figured out that my POV is slightly wrong. But I still can't input data..Report Scripts
Hi all, I'm trying to figure out how to leverage on Report Scripts using OneStream objects. Is it possible to leverage on BRApi inside scripts events ? A direct call to BRApi class results in an error, I'm wondering if there's some workaround or trick to reach the object. Best Regards FabioG
