Pass-thru Formatting on Cube Views
Good afternoon, I'm trying to pass through formatting from one cube view to another. The 2nd cube view is a dialog pop-up in a dashboard triggered by a selection changed event. So far I've been able to determine destination formatting based on Cell POV dimension members of the cell "clicked" but I'm hitting a snag on dynamically calculated cells (column is Actual versus Budget % for example). The Cell POV dimension members are the same with the only difference being a "GetDataCell" at the end. I haven't figured out a way to retrieve what, if anything, is in the "calculation script" for a cell intersection. Or if there's a way to retrieve the row and column names for a cell intersection at the time of a click? Looking for any guidance possible. Thanks, Brandon
Business Rule: Copy data from one cube to another with different cube dimensions
Hello, I have following two cubes in onestream: Volumes Detail All the cube dimensions are the same except for UD1. For volumes, UD1 cube dimension is VintageDim and for detail its FunctionTotal. I am trying to copy data from "Volumes" cube to "Detail" Cube through a Business Rule. I am running this business rule from Data Management Step. The rule runs perfectly but it doesn't copy the data. I don't get any error too. Please can someone help to understand the issue? Public Sub CopyData() Try 'Define the source and target information Dim sourceCube As String = "Volumes" Dim targetCube As String = "Detail" Dim sourceScenario As String = api.Pov.Scenario.Name '1. Pull data from the source cube (Volumes) 'Using a formula to capture the desired data unit Dim sourceDb As DataBuffer = api.Data.GetDataBufferUsingFormula($"Cb#{sourceCube}:S#{sourceScenario}:A#Product_Sales") '2. Convert the data buffer to match the target cube's dimensionality 'This handles the automatic mapping of extended members between the cubes Dim convertedDb As DataBuffer = api.Data.ConvertDataBufferExtendedMembers(targetCube, sourceScenario, sourceDb) '3. Set the converted data into the target cube (Detail) Dim destInfo As ExpressionDestinationInfo = api.Data.GetExpressionDestinationInfo("") api.Data.SetDataBuffer(convertedDb, destInfo) Catch ex As Exception brapi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, "EXCEPTION: " & ex.Message) Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Sub Thank you
Time always returns 0001-01-01 in BR when using XFBR in Cube View
Hi, I am calling a Business Rule (BR) in a Cube View using XFBR as follows: XFBR( BR_ParamHelper, FunctionName, WFname = |WFText2|, SelectEntity = |!WF_AssignedEntity!|, Time = |!Time!| ) Inside the BR, I parse the year from Time to control flows: Dim wfYear As Integer = 0 If args.NameValuePairs.ContainsKey("Time") Then Dim POVTime As String = args.NameValuePairs("Time") wfYear = CInt(Left(POVTime, 4)) End If If wfYear >= 2026 Then ' Remove flows for specified entities Else ' Keep historical flows End If Problem: When I log POVTime or wfYear, it always shows 0001-01-01, so my logic for removing ENT/EXIT based on the year never triggers. What I have tried: Verified the Cube View POV is correctly set. Passed Time = |!Time!| from the Cube View XFBR call. Logged args.NameValuePairs("Time") — still returns 0001-01-01. Question: Is Time = |!Time!| the correct way to pass the POV period to a BR? Is there a difference between |!Time!| and |!POV!| or T#POV in Cube Views for BRs? How can I get the actual workflow year in the BR so I can apply logic like wfYear >= 2026? Any guidance or examples on how to correctly get the year of the workflow/POV in a BR would be greatly appreciated.While consolidating on Top level getting error in Stored Calc

Retrieve the culture in a BR and display the name & description of this culture
Hello everyone, We currently have a business rule that allows us to display a certain number of accounts for our cash flow cube view. The problem is that when returning account.Member.NameAndDescription, it does not take into account the user's culture. resultString.Append("A#" & account.Member.Name & ":Name(" & space & account.Member.NameAndDescription & "):F#None,") So I think I need to retrieve the culture of the user displaying the cube view in my BR in order to return the correct name and description. However, I don't know how to retrieve the user's culture, nor what parameter to return instead of account.Member.NameAndDescription to get the one in US English, as the default is in French. Do you have any ideas?
Create a parameter to determine the initialization status of each forecast?
Hello everyone, We have set up a monthly forecast that is compared to the budget or actual figures in different cube views. We currently use a parameter to select the forecast month in each cube view, but I would like to remove it and have the latest forecast for the year or year N-1 displayed automatically. I have created an XFBR that retrieves the holding company's turnover for each of the 11 forecasts (January, February, etc., November) and displays the forecast closest to December with a turnover. The problem is that not all users have access to this company, so the BR does not work for them. I could change the BR to add companies to it so that it works for all users, but I find that cumbersome. Is it possible to save a value (X or 1) in a variable when initializing the forecast so that the BR can query this variable based on the Time scenario and thus know which forecast has been initialized? How do you do this in your OS?
