Is there guidance on the setting for the number of parallel executions for Harvest Batch Loads?
When using the BRAPi.Utilities.ExecuteFileHarvestBatchParallel function in an Extender BR, does anyone have any guidance and/or opinions on the proper setting of the parallelBatchCount parameter? My understanding has always been to set it to a maximum of the number of CPUs - 1 , available for the server performing data management or batch load processing.Running Validate and Load Steps for Multiple Years
Hi everyone, We are uploading portions of our budgets in Excel templates across multiple years. The data is imported across all the years in one shot, but the validate and load steps need to be run year by year if imported through the workflows we have set up. Does anyone know if there is a way to execute the validate and load steps across multiple years through a rule? I know we can use the batch harvest folders, but we're hoping to keep the workflow steps as close to those used in other processes as possible. Thanks, James9Views0likes0CommentsForm Update Via Excel is Appending, not Replacing
We have a form in our workflow for budgeting. Users have the option of interacting directly with the form or using a spreadsheet template we provided to update their values. There are pre-seeded values in the cube. Users can then make adjustments to the amounts. When users are updating via the form, we are getting values replaced like we would want. However, when users interact with the form and update via our provided excel file, the amounts are getting appended to the original value. We can't seem to locate where this behavior is triggered on upload to form via Excel. Is there something in the VB we need to adjust, or is this a 'standard' behavior. We'd like to let our users simply replace the values. Let me know if you need any add'l clarifications. Regards, DKSolved40Views0likes1CommentMatrix Data Load
We are looking to load data from a year-to-date (YTD) consolidated statement of subsidiaries. The statement is in matrix form, with accounts (both balance sheet and profit & loss) in rows and companies in columns. Each company has two sets of columns: one for financial results and one for eliminations. How can we set up the data source to read multiple companies' statements from one file? We would like to load eliminations to a separate origin (Elimination). How can we change the destination for the Elimination columns? Also, how do we set up bypass row so that the load ignores headers and total rows? I noticed those rows can be identified by the Account column, where if the account is blank, then bypass.SolvedValidation Error: No security access to data cell being cleared
Hi Team, We have a client that upload excel templates using xfdrange into OneStream. They have different files per Business Unit (UD2). Two of the files run into the following intersection error during the validation step: All the other files are correct, however, when they upload these two files, all data intersections (from all other files) are suddenly also invalid intersections. For examples, the line listed here is not from either of the two files but from a seperate file that has no errors when uploaded individually). When you would navigate to "Intersection" instead of "invalid Intersection (1)" all data intersections from all files are there. Only the local users get this validation intersection, when I (administrator) would run "Validate" from this screenshot, the error dissapears. Strange thing is: they have uploaded data on this intersection before in previous Forecast Scenarios without errors Security has not changed for either the application, user, workflow profile, entity etc. these two files both have an account that is only used there but is set up in the same way as all the other accounts (and previously could be loaded in other scenarios). Could just be a coincidence. Application Security: ModifyData is set to Everyone One thing to note is that this is a new forecast scenario we recently created for them, however, setup is the same way as the other forecast scenarios in terms of security. I am also having a hard time understanding the error and why it is refering to "clearing data" in the validate step. Anyone that can help me a little bit more in understanding the error or knows what could cause this? Thanks in advance!52Views0likes2CommentsAnyone doing planning at a proxy member?
Hi all, I'm just trying to get a feel for how common this use of proxy members is these days. I've worked for multiple organizations and typically, if we were planning at any level higher than the most granular level of data, we would plan a number representing a group of members, at some 'proxy' member created specifically for planning purposes. That is, we would not use some random existing base member that held actuals. For example: If our dimension hierarchy looks like the one below and we were planning at the Region Level: I would not plan for the entire RegionA by loading my planning data to "South3". Instead, I would create a unique member (say, "RegionA_Plan") and load my data there. Wondering how many companies out there would use the first method rather than the second method and what advantage there would be to this? Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this.

Hi Community, I’m working on an Account Reconciliation solution where I need to ensure posted journal entries balances are also included in the Account Reconciliation discovery process. Currently, by design the Discovery process only pulls trial balance information already imported and validated in the Stage. Therefore, I wanted to check if there’s a recommended, or best practice approach, to accomplish this requirement. Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for your help!23Views0likes0CommentsData Cell is read-only because Parent Workflow Profile has no active Input Profiles
Hi all, I have an Import, Validate, Load workflow that hasn't been used for a while. I'm trying to load in data and I'm getting invalid intersections at the validation stage with the following error message: "Data Cell is read-only because Parent Workflow Profile 'Workflow Name' has no active Input Profiles for the Workflow Channels that are assigned to the Data Cell's Account and/or UD member. Entity = Entity, Account=Volume, Origin=Import" Note I've use italics instead of using our entity names and workflow names. We didn't have this issue before so I'm not sure what has changed. The parent workflow profile stated in the validation message isn't actually the parent workflow profile so I'm totally confused. There is another post on this but I didn't understand the resolution. Could somebody please tell me what I would need to do to fix this? Thanks!Solved4.2KViews0likes4Comments
