How to stop a BR from updating a Certified Entity
We have a Fcst BR that copies from a support scenario into our main Fcst Scenario. Our issue is that it will still overwrite data in the main scenario even when that scenario's Entity is certified. How do I prevent BR's form updating data that is certified. We had closed/certified our Fcst and then someone not aware was in a form that allowed them to update this supporting details scenario and saved which then updated the Fcst scenario. Is this something that can be managed on the Scenario setup - ie not allowing changes when certified or is this a type of loophole with BR's I have something similar I do for data loads where I check the status of the WF before running an automated Import/Validate/.../load process. in this case I am trying to prevent a ton of error messages when it gets to the load steps and finds the entity is certified. Would there be logic that could check the status of an Entity vs. WF that I might be able to insert into my BR.
Audit History for Forms - CubeView drill down (v8.4)
I have drilled down to the bottom of both Origin and UD6 dimension which shows the data was loaded by corp accounting team. However, i cannot view Audit history for Forms - it continues to show as grey'd out. Does anyone know how to enable the audit history? thank you.Community Highlights: June 2025

Unable to unlock the Work Flow channel
Hi Team, WhatIF_R&O_Adj is a Workflow Channel, and it is assigned under "Financial_WeeklyProcess" - "Base_Input Profile" (Refer the 2nd screen shot). when we are trying to unlock the channel. getting pop up like "'mnuWFChannelLockWhatif_R&O_Adj' is not a valid value for property 'Name'." and it is not listed under WF channel list(Please refer 3rd screen shot). Kindly help us to resolve the issue. Thank you, Shiva Prasad.
Account Attribute: In Use versus Allow Input
Hi all, We have hundreds of historical (no longer valid) accounts sitting in a cube and we are looking at ways of de-cluttering resulting data retrievals to avoid seeing them. But additionally, we want to prevent any accidental loading to these accounts from the source system. For reporting, I know we can populate one of the text fields with some text and then combine that with a Where() clause to filter out these old accounts. But, from a data load perspective, just wondering what the risks / benefits are of utilizing either (or both) of the In Use or Allow Input attributes; to prevent accidental loading of data there. We want to be able to continue to see any historical data for these accounts and be able to drilldown from the parent account and see that data. There are no member formulas associated with these - they are all base accounts. We don't care about the Scenario/Time specificity capability If anyone is using these attributes would very much appreciate any recommendations or hearing what your experience has been (before we go through the effort of testing either of these options). Many thanks, K.
Issue Retrieving Text Property from DynamicCalc Accounts in UD8
Hi all, I have a DynamicCalc account where the Text6 property is populated. I also created a UD8 member that dynamically retrieves the POV account and returns its Text6 property. In my Cube View, I set the POV for this UD8 column to Annotation. This works well for all non-DynamicCalc accounts... I can successfully retrieve and display the Text6 property in the Cube View. However, for DynamicCalc accounts, the Text6 property doesn't appear. It seems like OneStream can't resolve the property for DynamicCalc members in this context. Has anyone encountered this behavior? Thanks in advance! UD8 member filter:Mass modification of a Metadata member attribute
Hi all, Does anyone happen to have the correct syntax for an XML file that modifies a single attribute (member property) and can be uploaded to OneStream without resetting other member properties? A bit of background, I have to add content to the Text7 field of over 3000 members. I tried one version of a XML that only referred to the Text7 property for a single member But when I loaded the xml, some (but not all) of the properties for that member reverted back to original defaults. On the plus side, it DID update the Text 7 field. I'm clearly not defining my XML properly so if anyone has an example of the syntax I can use to update a property without affecting anything else, I would love to see it. I realize I can extract all 3000 members to an XML, but if the Text7 property is not assigned anything, then that property doesn't get included in the extract (otherwise I could simply do a global search/replace): in order to fix this I would have to write a script to run against the contents of the XML and 'add' a line identifying that property and it's contents. I'm hoping there's something more straightforward out there? Fingers crossed. Thanks in advance for any examples you might have.Environment Monitoring Graph Not Displaying Any Values
Hi everyone, I've been trying to use the Environment Monitoring feature, but for some reason the graph doesn't display any values. The interface loads correctly and I can select different metrics and time ranges, but the chart area stays empty—no lines, no points, nothing. Has anyone experienced this before or have any idea what might be causing it? Any tips on how to troubleshoot or configure it properly would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Import data using multiple workflow profles
Hi everyone, I have an issue in understanding how to implement multiple import steps within a workflow. My client will load data through a classing import step throughout all the months of the year. In addition to that, they asked to set up 3 additional import steps (P13, P14, P15) to be used in December that will serve as "adjustments" to the previous data loaded on the cube. At each import step, however, the data will be loaded in full (with eventual adjustments) and should overwrite the data loaded through previous import steps (and this is the reason why we don't use forms but we use multiple import steps). For example, when P13 is loaded, it should overwrite the data loaded through the Import step, and when P14 is loaded it should overwrite the data loaded through P13, and so on. The problem now is that since we are using a different workflow profile at each step, the system does not automatically overwrite the data loaded through the previous workflow profile, and therefore the data is just added on top of the data that was loaded in previous steps. Does anyone knows whether there is a way to overwrite data from previous loads when a new import step is used? An idea I thought about was to delete the data on the cube through sql while executing the BR Connector rule but I don't know what tables in the db hold the data that I want to overwrite. Thanks in advance for any help, and if something is not clear please ask, I'll be happy to clarify!
