How do I clean a scenario before copying data from another scenario? in the member formula.
Hi Everyone. I want to copy the information from one scenario to another. Currently, I’m using the member formula of the target scenario to transfer the data. However, I first apply a calculate to set the values to zero, followed by a clecarcalculateddata to properly remove the existing information. The issue is that after this step, the copy process doesn’t execute, and the scenario remains with zero values. My code is as follows: api.Data.calculate("S#FORECAST_" & monthNumber & "_AT_CY_BUDGET_RATE = 0*(S#FORECAST_" & monthNumber & "_AT_CY_BUDGET_RATE)",True) api.Data.ClearCalculatedData("S#FORECAST_" & monthNumber & "_AT_CY_BUDGET_RATE",True,True,True,True) Dim destinationInfo As ExpressionDestinationInfo = api.Data.GetExpressionDestinationInfo("S#FORECAST_" & monthNumber & "_AT_CY_BUDGET_RATE") '' Create new Databuffer for the results Dim resultDataBuffer As New DataBuffer 'Base Entity at Local If Not api.Entity.HasChildren And api.Cons.IsLocalCurrencyForEntity() Then BRapi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"Validate 1") ' Get Databuffer from the account and scenario Dim sourceDataBuffer As DataBuffer = api.data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula("RemoveZeros(FilterMembers(S#[Forecast " & TimeName & "],[A#Root.Base]))", , False) ' Verificar si hay celdas con datos If sourceDataBuffer.DataBufferCells.Count > 0 Then BRapi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"Validate 2") For Each sourceCell As DataBufferCell In sourceDataBuffer.DataBufferCells.Values If (Not sourceCell.CellStatus.IsNoData) And (sourceCell.CellAmount <> 0.0) Then BRapi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"Validate 3") Dim resultCell As New DataBufferCell(sourceCell) resultCell.DataBufferCellPk.OriginId = DimConstants.Import resultDataBuffer.SetCell(si, resultCell, True) End If Next api.Data.SetDataBuffer(resultDataBuffer, destinationInfo,,,,,,,,,,,,,False) End If End If I would appreciate your help in understanding why the values are not being copied. The process is executed when I consolidate the information.
What does api.Data.GetRelationshipChanges(dimensionName, startDate, endDate) return?
Hello, I already have a data file for cost centers and their Default values, but now I need to include the before and after changed values to the cost center member. I found this code: Function GetRelationshipChangesForTimeSpan(ByVal api As Api, ByVal dimensionName As String, ByVal startDate As DateTime, ByVal endDate As DateTime) As List(Of RelationshipChange) ' Initialize a list to store relationship changes Dim relationshipChanges As New List(Of RelationshipChange) ' Use the API to retrieve relationship changes relationshipChanges = api.Data.GetRelationshipChanges(dimensionName, startDate, endDate) ' Return the list of changes Return relationshipChanges End Function How can I tell what data it's actually returning, what columns? Is there a better way to do this? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!ExecuteCustomCalculateBusinessRule ... but in workspaces
Hi, I came across an update function in the business rules for ExecuteCustomCalculateBusinessRule Previous function (still in use) : BRApi.Finance.Calculate.ExecuteCustomCalculateBusinessRule(si, brName, functionName, nameValuePairs, timeType) New function for workspaces : BRApi.Finance.Calculate.ExecuteCustomCalculateBusinessRule(si, workspaceID, brName, functionName, nameValuePairs, timeType) We can indeed at least in version 8.5 create Finance Custom Calculate Services : However, these don't use any business rule name, hence my confusion ? How do we execute a custom calculate service which is currently within my workspace assembly services ? Or should it be used in a different way ? Regards,
Purpose of itemName in Assembly Service factories?
Hi all I'm trying to understand the purpose of the string 'itemName' variable that is available inside the assembly service factories. Does anyone know the intended purpose of the 'itemName'? And does anyone have some best practice guidelines or examples of this variable in use? Thank you very much everyone! Thor
is there a way to check the total value on each account in the staging?
Hi Community, We have a requirement to bypass lines from the source data for each account if the total equals to zero, regardless of the UD1 value. For example if these two lines are in the source data: Account 1, UD1_1, -100 Account 1, UD1_2, 100 we want to bypass account 1. Is there a way to achieve this result? in our case this is happening because we are adding UD1 in the source system and it's triggering a lot of unused accounts to now appear on our staging table because of the different UD1 members.
How can I subtract the result of two DIVIDE operations within a CALCULATE function?
Hi Everyone. I have the following CALCULATE expression, but it’s returning no results. The source values are not zero, so I’m not sure if the way I’m using the DIVIDE function is causing the issue, or if there is another problem Dim DBCInner As DataBuffer = api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula("FilterMembers(A#RETBUYBACK:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#COUNTRY_RPT + A#423100:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#COUNTRY_RPT + A#411000:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#COUNTRY_RPT)") api.Data.FormulaVariables.SetDataBufferVariable("DBCInner",DBCInner,False) Dim regionalRpt As DataBuffer = api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula("FilterMembers(A#RETBUYBACK:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#REGIONAL_RPT + A#423100:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#REGIONAL_RPT + A#411000:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#REGIONAL_RPT)") api.Data.FormulaVariables.SetDataBufferVariable("rptValue",regionalRpt,False) api.Data.Calculate("A#P_EBIPrct:O#Import:U2#P0000:UD3#REG_ADJ:U4#PJ00000 = Divide($rptValue,A#411000:E#"& strEntTx3 &":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#REGIONAL_RPT) - Divide($DBCInner, A#411000:E#" & strEntTx3 & ":C#Local:O#Top:U2#INNER:UD3#COUNTRY_RPT)") I would appreciate your assistance.
Quick OneStream Rule Behavior Check – O#Top Returning O#Import Value?
Hi Team, Quick question — has anyone else encountered this behavior in rule logic? I’m working with a standard api.Data.GetDataCell(...) call that includes the O#Top member in the POV. Here's the line I'm using: Dim baseValue As Decimal = api.Data.GetDataCell("C#Local:A#1104000000:F#CLO:O#Top:I#Top:U1#Top:U2#Top:U3#Top:U4#Top:U5#Top:U6#Top:U7#Top:U8#Top").CellAmount. BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, baseValue) On the Cube View, this correctly returns -501 under O#Top. However, when I log the value in the rule using: - It outputs the value from O#Import, not the aggregated O#Top result I expected. This rule worked flawlessly for 3 years until now on Version 7.4. As a workaround, I manually aggregated the base origin members in the rule, which produced the expected result. However, I’m still unclear why O#Top didn’t aggregate properly in this case, given that it functions as expected in Cube Views. I checked and compared with several other apps, including Golfstream, in which this rule worked. Environment: This behavior was observed in 7.4. After upgrading to version 8.4, the issue was resolved. I’d like to understand what may have caused this inconsistency, particularly: Could a bug affect the Origin dimension, which was resolved in 8.4? Has anyone experienced this behavior before? Appreciate any insights or similar experiences the community can share!
