Local User Access when SSO turned on or need to set WF for local user when you can't access user.
in our initial design we have a local Admin user - OS_Admin that runs all our DM and Scheduler jobs. This was a local Admin user that pwd never changed (IT requires all AD users to change pwd's and we have too many embedded scripts with pwd for this to work). When we migrated to V8 and the new SSO security structure was applied, we found that keeping the option for manual user sign-in created more issues for our SSO users than we could justify so we have stopped being able to sign in as this user. Issue: We have logic that is pointing to the Global and this user's settings that drive most of our activity. In the short-term I have changed the User based settings to point to my user but I need to get away from that. Need: I need to be able to sign-in as the local user to set the POV for WF (Scenario, Time, WF) OR is there a way I can change that from my Admin user. Don't care either way, just need the result to be that the OS_Admin user's POV is updated.
BI Viewer Not Rendering on Parent Dashboard - v8.5
Hello, I am encountering an error when assigning a BI Viewer to a dashboard in version 8.5. The BI Viewer is sourced from a Cube View MD data adapter. When I run the dashboard to which the BI Viewer is directly assigned, it renders fine. However, when I run the main dashboard attached to my workflow, I receive the following error message. I have done the same process Has anyone encountered something similar before - and if so, was there a fix? I am perplexed, because I've been able to use BI Viewers in child/dependent dashboards without issue.
Option to disable the "Load" button and only show "Load and Process" on the WF step.
Having the option to disable the "Load" button and only show "Load and Process" on the WF step would help when we add a rule in the process step that needs to be run every time the user uploads a file. This would reduce the risk of a user clicking Load and not Process, which is important for our operational planning teams to avoid data being missed or incorrect because a calculation or rule was not completed.Add culture to user security
I need to be able to visualize a cube view in english and in spanish. The description of the account member is set in spanish, and if I put something in the 'English' line, because the user security only has the English option in culture, the cube view would come out in english. So i need to be able to add another option for culture in the user security. ¿How can I accomplish this? Thanks!
Run OS as other user? testing account on SSO
We wish to disable Native Authentication once we go live on V8. If Native authentication is enabled, all users must enter their username and then the authentication occurs. In V7, that wasn't required. In V7, we utilize several native accounts for testing - i.e. TestUser1, TestUser2 - that the admins can leverage when working with security. They use their SSO account to launch one window of OS and login natively with the test user on another instance of OS, enabling them to make a change in their admin window, refresh, and test the change in their other instance. With disabling Native Authentication, our IT department suggested we create Azure test accounts that can authenticate like our normal user account through the shift/right click and "run as other user" function to login as that t-account. However, this doesn't seem to work - nothing happens after clicking on the shortcut and entering the t-account credentials. Is it safe to assume this method doesn't work? Aside from turning on Native Authentication, how could our admins login as another user so they are able to test?
Quick certification of a Certify Workflow using business rule
Hello everyone, Is it possible using a business rule to make a quick certification for a Certify Workflow? I was abel to complete the Certify Workflow task using business rule but the certification status remains rejected. Thank you in advance for your help. Regards, AntonyTip: Splitting the Desktop
I figured this out recently by chance and it's been so helpful I had to share... Did you know you can split the OneStream desktop to view multiple tabs at once? If you have a large, high resolution monitor, why not be able to work in multiple tabs at once? Panes can be arranged side-by-side or stacked, whatever combination helps you see all the things you want to see at all at the same time, without having to switch back and forth between tabs. Here's how: 1. Grab the tab you want to place in a different part of the desktop, click the tab and drag down and to the right. 2. The Panes widget will appear. 3. Bring your mouse so the cursor is over the part of the widget where you want the tab you're dragging to appear. If you drop it on the right, it will slide in on the right, next to the other open tab. Drop it on the bottom part and your tab will be a bottom pane under the other open tabs. Here we're dropping on the right pane: Viola!

This was originally a question.It took a while to figure out, so to save someone else the hours of trial and error, here is the process I use in detail, start to finish, to run a Workspace-based Data Management step in a Workspace Assembly business rule. Here's a How-to step by step: List of abbreviations used below: DM: Data Management WS: Workspace MU: Maintenance Unit BR: Business Rule AS: Assembly 1. Workspace:Set the NameSpace Prefix - this is what gets filled in at runtime for __WSNameSpacePrefix 2. Assemblies: Note these properties 3. Create the Assembly Business Rule:Create an "Extender" business rule, this is done by right clicking files and selecting "Extensibility Rules" Add some test code, to verify correct configuration, such as BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, "Hello from the new extender!"then code the way you would any other extender 4. Create The Data Management Group: Create a DataManagement Group in the same workspace that the Assembly that has your business rule is in 5. Create a Data Management Step - Create a DM step in the new DM Group, reference the rule using the pattern: Workspace.{WorkspacePrefix}.{AssemblyName}.{BusinessRuleName} In this case it would be: Workspace.Current.DMTestAS.DMTestStepExtender Note: we could also use 'DMTestWS' instead of 'Current'.We use Current because the DM Step is in the same WS as the Extender Rule. 7. Done! Test the DM Step with run button and check the error log(System Tab -> Logging -> Error Log),for your test code's output.
