Business Rules for new OS implementation
Hi, we are implementing OS at present, and this is our first-ever project in OneStream; I need guidance on Business Rules. I am not sure what business rules we need to consider after and before we import the data from the Client system to match the client's legacy system data with OneStream numbers. Thanks, Preeti
performance issue.
Hello OneStream Community, I am working with a Cube View where I need to display the Income Statement data for the end of every year (December). The data should show up as the beginning balance for the January month in the subsequent year. To achieve this, I used a Row Override1 member filter with the formula T#povprioryearm12. The Cube View includes four dimensions: Entity, Division, Cost Center, and Accounts. However, I am experiencing slow loading times when the view is being accessed. it is not exporting to Excel to validate. I would like to know if there are any best practices or strategies for improving the performance of the Cube View in this scenario. Are there specific optimizations I should consider for the member filter, the dimensions, or the Cube View configuration to reduce loading times? Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
Member Filter Functions in Finance BR
Is it possible to use Member Expansion functions like U1#[Top].Base.Where , U1#[Top].Base.Options within api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula? I want to get data to the buffer from a Scenario / Scenario Type which is setup with a Summary UD1 dimension in the Cube Configuration.The data is loaded to this Scenario at Summary UD1 members. In the Spreadsheet I am able to pull the data using below member filter function. U1#[XX].Base.Options(cube = AA , ScenarioType = Operational) However when I apply the same function in the api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula , I am getting errors stating need a comma after Options. If this function cannot be used within Finance BR is there another way to get the data from base members of Summary UD1 dimension? Dimension Summary UD1 Detail UD1 Members Summary UD1 Top CC001 Detail UD1 Top CC001 CC0011
Calculation Error "Error processing script: 'A#All = 0 * A#All"
I was running into issues clearing durable data prior to Clearing it so I calculated the data prior to the Clear statement so the data was "calculated", then ran the ClearCalculatedData stmt. It works fine for me, but I have admin access and it works fine for a select few users. But for the majority of users they receive the error"Error processing script: 'A#All = 0 * A#All". I can not easily test in Prod as my hands are tied as far as making security changes. In prod I have other users with the same set of security groups (just pointing to other entity WFs) and they do not receive the error. In our Dev environment I can set up a native user with the exact same security groups as a prod user that fails and I do not receive an error. As for it being an issue with data, I have an entity where 1 user can run it and another can not. And they have the same set of security groups. Does anyone have any thoughts on what is going on? I also thought that the ClearCalculatedData should have been able to clear it (durable data) with the Boolean set to true, but it doesn't. Does anyone have any thought on why the clear does not work w/o calculating the data prior to clearing it? I did see a note about the ClearCalculatedData that the final argument must be true to clkear any data with a storage type Durable. But I'm not exactly sure what this means - can someone clarify that statement for me? This is the code: This is the error:
Recurring journal with Auto Post
So im trying to create a rule that pulls selected journals forward than posts them automaticaly. I have my test journal pulling forward as expected but when im trying to post the journal in rule below its causing the rule to error. The line in question is, BRApi.Journals.Process.ExecutePost(si, journalObjectHeader.UniqueID) What am i missing it seems pretty straight forward?

Workspace Assembly - Call functions from Finance or Connector business rules
Hi Everyone, has anyone already tried to reference a Workspace Assembly business rule from a Finance or a Connector business rule? I have a business rule that is packaged to an Assembly in a Workspace: It has a set of public functions returning dictionaries and other variables. And I would like these functions being called from a Connector. I can successfully reference it from another Assembly workspace. But when I am using the same syntax in a connector, that is not working: I am assuming the referenced Business rule must be declared in the Properties, but I am not sure of the syntax. Or even sure this is accepted. Many thanks to anyone who can helps!
