Error in Business Rule for Data Mgmt Process
Data Mgmt sequence and steps work great when utilizing a 'manual' initiation of this process and business rule. However, the DM process automatically initiates twice daily at specific times using the same code and rules. When this occurs, it fails on occasion (not always), and this error message is received: Summary: Error processing Data Management Step 'ProcessRecons_RCM'. Unable to execute Business Rule 'RCM_DataMgmtProcess'. One or more errors occurred. () Concurrency violation: the UpdateCommand affected 0 of the expected 1 records. This is the business rule in use... asking if anyone can spot an obvious issue I have overlooked or might know the cause of the failed task on occasion.

Calculation Definitions Filter -Data Quality Event Handler
Hello, I setup a filter on a workflow profile calculation to run a data management job as long as the no calculate is the selected option. We have a Data Quality Event Handler Business rule to run this; however when I click on process cube, it's running the job twice at the same time. This is the example of what it's doing when I say it's running twice: Here it the code from the event handler: Namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.DataQualityEventHandler.DataQualityEventHandler Public Class MainClass '------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 'Reference Code: DataQualityEventHandler ' 'Description: Event handler method that provides an opertunity to supplement a normal data quality ' action with your own custom functionality.

If you have written ' code in that handles the specified event operation the code will be executed. ' 'Created By: Tom Shea 'Date Created: 1-30-2013 '------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As DataQualityEventHandlerArgs) As Object Try 'Define a switch to control event processing, since many of these are reference examples we do not want them to run all the time Dim processEvents As Boolean = False 'Set the default return values Dim returnValue As Object = args.DefaultReturnValue args.UseReturnValueFromBusinessRule = False args.Cancel = False 'Evaluate the operation type in order to determine which subroutine to process Select Case args.OperationName Case Is = BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.NoCalculate 'Execute a Data Management job after process cube runs Me.XFR_HandleProcessCubeNoCalculate(si, globals, api, args) 'Case Is = BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.FinalizeSetCertifyState 'Send an email after a workflow profile executes its certification 'Me.XFR_HandleFinalizeSetCertifyState(si, globals, api, args) End Select Return returnValue Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function #Region "ProcessCube.NoCalculate Helpers" Private Sub XFR_HandleProcessCubeNoCalculate(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As DataQualityEventHandlerArgs) '------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 'Reference Code: XFR_HandleProcessCubeNoCalculate ' 'Description: Run a DataMgmt Sequence after the workflow process cube task is run.

Solution to Update Task Scheduler Start Times to Account for Daylight Savings
Hi, This time of year we have the common maintenance point regarding needing to update task scheduler start times to account for daylight savings. It is expected for the platform to not automatically update the task start times to account for daylight savings, thus, this becomes a maintenance point for those companies in states/countries that utilize daylight savings. Until this feature perhaps one day becomes available in the platform, we have a custom solution that will make the maintenance point of this easier for OS administrators. You can upload the two files attached in the zip file which will result in uploading an Extender business rule titled "Update_TaskScheduler_StartTimes" and a Data Management job called "Update Task Start Time Daylight Savings". To use the solution, navigate to the Data Mgmt page and look for the group titled "Task Scheduler Maintenance". Here you will find the Data Mgmt sequence and step you uploaded. Navigate to the DM step and utilize the Hour Adjustment parameter to push the task start times backwards (-1) or forward (1) one hour. Once you are happy with the Data Mgmt step setting, go ahead and run the Update Task Start Time Daylight Savings sequence. The sequence will update the task start time for all tasks in the application. We recommend testing this in a Development application first. Please perform this at your own risk in a Production application.
Entity Relationship Properties update via business rules
Hi Team, I would like to fetch and update the Entity Relationship Properties for the Entity Dimension members via Business Rules. The below peace of code works fine for only when I pass the Actual and Budget but when i pass the other scenario Type like Scenariotype 1 to 8 I get the error Object is not set to an instance of an object. Dim Scenario As String = args.CustSubstVarsAlreadyResolved("Param_SecnarioType_EO_24") 'The above value i get it from the combo box as delimited list Dim Scenarioid As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si,dimtype.Scenario.Id,Scenario) Dim MyScenarioTypeid As ScenarioType = BRApi.Finance.Scenario.GetScenarioType(si,Scenarioid) Dim Timefilter As String = args.CustSubstVarsAlreadyResolved("Param_Time_24") Dim Timeid As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberId(si,dimtype.Time.Id,Timefilter) Can you please help me with the correct way to get the scenario Type.Dimension members loading process using SIC
Hi all, I'm quite new to OS integration pieces and being struglled with a request from my client to load dimension members using their data lake, so the memebers would be updated automatically or by a scheduled event. The database is already configured at SIC and working fantastically well, however, I can't figure how to use it's features to load the metadata members to one of our UD dimensions. I read a lot of topics here in the forum, but couldn't find anything that matches my case. I already tried to create a Extender BR, but I'm getting a "Object variable or With block variable not set" error message when running the "api.Parser.ProcessSQLQuery" function. Not sure if I'm doing something extremely wrong, so I"m assuming that this part of the api must be used only within Connector BR's. I also trie to create a connector rule to do the job, but when setting it up at the dimension property, nothing happened (not sure if I missed something here). Any help on this will be really appreciated! Regards
