Issue Referencing Parent Entity in an Stored Account Member formula
Hi, We have a few accounts that contain stored formulas. These accounts contain formulas that reference another Account and Parent entity and it stores the result at a Base Entity. Below formula is for an account that has a formula pass 4. We are storing the result in "BaseEntity" and calculate Account1 by looking at OPEX at a Parent Entity. Obviously, since it is referencing a Parent Entity we have to run our consolidations twice in order to get the result. Is there a way to sum up the Base entities of Parent1 and reference that value in a formula or is there a way to run a consolidation within the formula for just that Parent Entity? In other CPM/EPM products I've worked with in the past you can right rules where you run an aggregation on the Entity and then run your calculation. In OneStream I cannot seem to find a way to do this. If api.Pov.Entity.Name = "BaseEntity" Then api.Data.ClearCalculatedData("A#Account1",True,False,False,True) api.Data.Calculate("A#Account1 = A#OPEX:E#Parent1:C#USD",True) End If Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

I've been going through some training material on DCS for a use case that requires frequent changes in a dimension (UD3 - SKU). Because of this, I'm considering dynamic dimensions where the SKU can be written and generated via code. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything that supports writing data from a cube view. I've only found material that says the "Dynamic Cube" needs to have the share and edit feature turned on. Question - Is it even possible to create a cube, use a dynamic dimension as one of its dimensions, write allocation calcs to allocate data to SKU level and be able to modify that data using cube views? If not, what is the best way to handle this use case without having to create another non-dynamic SKU dimension.Solved117Views1like3CommentsSame Scenario Across Two Cubes vs Separate Scenarios — Pros & Cons?
Hello everyone, I’m looking for feedback on the pros and cons of using a single Actual scenario across two cubes (e.g., Consolidation and FP&A) versus defining separate scenarios for each cube. For example: Option 1 (shared): Consolidation Cube : Actual (Scenario Type = Actual) FP&A Cube : Actual (Scenario Type = Actual) Option 2 (separate): Consolidation Cube : Actual (Scenario Type = Actual) FP&A Cube : Monthly (Scenario Type = Control) From your experience, how do these approaches compare in terms of data governance, maintenance, performance, flexibility for planning/reporting, and potential risks (e.g., unintended impacts between cubes)? Any best practices or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!27Views0likes0CommentsError processing member. The item was not found. Member, -100.

Hello All, for our project, we are using the In Use property in UD2 with the Time/Scenario dependency option. Seems to work but the problem for us and also raised by customer is the maintenance part of it. We showed them how to use Grid View but with that we are not able to see how this In Use property is configured by scenario and time. Grid View only shows In Use ticked box everywhere even if we set it to False for some scenario/time combinations. This is really a drawback for us now in implementation phase and for them in the future to administer this application. Does anybody that used scenario/time dependant set up (whether for in use property or for any text attributes, that would be same problem) had a good way to maintain this property without having to go one by one in each member to see what is configured and update it ? Or did you achieve differently the requirement to handle the fact to activate/inactivate some members over time without using the In Use property ? Thank you in advance for your support and feedbacks on that!Solved225Views0likes4CommentsCheck details for disk space
Hi guys! I would like to know if there is a way to get a more detailed view of what is consuming disk space for each application within my environment. I understand that the System Diagnostics dashboard provides a report indicating how much space is allocated and how much is being used per application; however, I would like to know if there is a way to obtain a more detailed breakdown per application.

Hi, I'm trying to create dynamic members within a dimension using api.ReadDynamicDimensionInfo. I created a custom table within application database. When the service runs, it creates members under the root member even when I pass the "Parent" member's name. Also, the aggregation weight is being set to 0 even when I've passed numerical values. Table: Dimension Library: I want the members to be created under "All_Customers" Code: It works when I use - CreateAndAddrelationships but not with the api mentioned above. Am I doing something incorrect?Solved81Views0likes3CommentsHierarchy Validation tool Security

Hi there, I am trying to extract a component using XFProj.

Hi OneStream Community, I had a question regarding extracting dimension metadata and properties from OneStream. Currently, when we go to the Dimension Library, apply member filters in the grid view, and then right-click and export to CSV, we can download file containing the metadata along with its properties. I’m trying to find out if there is a way to automate this instead of doing it manually. Ideally, I would like to extract the same information (based on member filters or a specific hierarchy) through something like a Dashboard, Data Management step, or Business Rule, so the export can be automated. Has anyone implemented something similar or know of an approach to achieve this?101Views0likes2Comments
