Application Build

Hi OneStream Community, I hope you are all doing well. I am currently working on a project where I need to create a dropdown in a specific cell within the OneStream SQL Editor, and the values for this dropdown should be dynamically based on the value of another input parameter. Here's the situation: The SQL Editor only accepts delimited list parameters. I need to dynamically populate this delimited list parameter based on the value selected in another input parameter. For example, if the user selects a country from the first parameter, the second parameter (the dropdown) should display a list of cities from that selected country. I am struggling to find a way to dynamically feed a delimited list parameter based on the value of another input parameter. Could someone please guide me on how to achieve this? Any help, examples, or pointers to relevant documentation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hi, I have a member with 2 stored items formulas, one on default time and one on 2021. If I am in 2024, which one apply? Thank you  

We are on V8.2.2 Cloud and we need to change the Zip File Protection settings. ManageSystemConfiguration is enabled so we can change the settings. The Installation and Configuration guide mentions Zip File Protection settings after Task Activity. Task Activity is there but no Zip File Protection section: Anyone know where they are or do I have raise a ticket with support? Thanks    

Hi All, We are implementing some updates to the security model in our application, and we are coming across some unfamiliar territory, so we're looking for some input. We are using OneStream version 7.2.4. We are trying to prevent the user from seeing data for certain Flow members based on information in the Text1 value of the Flow member. Because we don't want the user to be able to see the data for certain Flow members, we decided to use Data Access Security on the cube, with the idea being that if the user tried to access data they weren't supposed to see, it would return "No Access" in the cell. However, the Text1 values for the Flow members vary based on the scenario and time, so we aren't able to use a simple member expansion formula in the Data Access Member Filter, like F#ParentMember.Base.Where(Text1 Contains 'Valid'). We couldn't get XFBRs to work either, leading us to use a Member List BR. We determined that we can get the Data Access security to call the Member List BR... b

Note: this post is a follow-up from a post I made previously: https://community.onestreamsoftware.com/t5/Application-Build/Member-List-Business-Rule-in-Data-Access-Security/m-p/34916#M3533 Hi all,  Previously, I had asked about some details surrounding the running of a MemberList BR in a Data Access security filter; specifically, when the data access security runs (answer: every 24 hours unless IIS is reset) and if there's a way to force a re-run (answer: resetting IIS). After doing more work on this, we noticed that it looks like the data access security is applied on an app server-by-app server basis, and the app server that's used to handle the security is based on the app server that handles the user's log in. For example, if my log in action is handled by AppServer1, the data access security that's applied to my session is determined by the security that's currently applied in AppServer1. So it's therefore possible that one user, their logging-in being handled by AppServ

Hi, we see some of our automated tasks cancelled by the system (e.g. task status = Cancelled by System in task activity) every now and again, and don't really understand why this occurs. Can someone shed some light on why this happens and how to prevent it?Thanks!Alex

Hi, I'm trying to copy consolidated data from one Cube to another one. All the process works perfectly except for the consolidated data. C#Elimination is not being imported. The part of the connector rule where I think there is a problem is here, but I don't know how to solve it: Dim dtDataRecord As DataTable = BRApi.Import.Data.FdxExecuteDataUnit(si, myCube, "E#E004", "C#Local:P#PL00", ScenarioTypeId.Actual, "S#ACT", "T#"& wfTime, "YTD", True, filterF, _ 4, False) Thanks,

Hello OneStream Expert: We are going to to convert one Hyperion Planning application to OneStream Application. In Hyperion application we have SmartList type of Datatype, for example we have an Account Member call  Display_Flag 1, Yes 2. No In web form, it will display Yes or No and data will be saved to Essbase as 1 or 2. But I cannot find the SmartList type of Datatype in OneStream for me to display Yes or No in the Cubeview. I wonder what kind of solution can be applied. Thank you in advance.

Good Day All: What table would contain the intercompany rule profile.  I see source value and target value in the grid.  But I want to see all mapping. On target value, I just see entity name, how do I confirm accounts (A#)? Thanks, Steve P.

Can we do input in multiple currency? How can we do input in other currency apart from Local? For example, if I have IN entity, I want to do input in SG, USD and other currency?

Hi, Is there any way to remove users from the groups by using Load/Extract option from the system tab. i know we can add new groups or users but i want to remove the existing user from existing groups via xml. Thank you in Advance, much appreciated for the help. Thanks Satish P 

I'm trying to better understand the best process for moving large Dev dimension changes from to Prod.  I've extracted my Dev and Prod Metadata and have it in the Dimension Comparision utility.  Now I know my differences which I have changes in Prod that aren't in my Dev and of course vice-versa.   I'm looking for feedback, do you edit the xml file or make some changes in Dimension portion of Onestream and re-extract.  The best practices process is what is stumping me or is the answer "it depends"

How can I edit my GLOBAL POV?  

We are implementing a consolidation solution where customer will need the ability to analyze data by each Project. Currently they have 12000 projects, and the list grows every year/month. Some Projects may deprecate however we need to retain them to maintain history. Is it advisable to setup 12000 Project members in the cube considering the potential to grow every month? Appreciate any advice to solve this requirement.    

Hi,  We are thinking of implementing People Planning module. As this has been floated as plug-n-play solution, we want to see if we can build it ourselves or build majority of it. What is the best way to know more about it? I see some documentation but is it good idea to download the People Planning module and look at the design of that? We have GolfStream demo but not sure if it has latest version of People planning. Any info on this is appreciated.   Thank you, PM

I created a USD Override form, however the translated value and the override value are both getting to the Top member. I was expected the override value to be getting to Top.  Here is the formula for USD Override Input in the Flow dimension:   And the difference in POV between the translated and override for account 399500: Here is the formula for A#399500/settings:

Hello, When we configure a linked CV from a source CV and that we input and save something in this linked CV, by default when we close this pop up window, updated or added data does not show in original CV. We need to manually refresh the source CV to see update of input done in linked CV. Does anyone know of a way to automate the refresh of the source CV upon closing the linked CV's pop up window? Thanks for your help!

How can I format this cube view to not display column names after it's been identified once? I want to retain the first instance of the Consolidation member, Local and Elimination (in red) but not have to see it more than once (in purple).

How can I visualize the Intercompany Matching via Workflow. I tried looking in the app but nothing appears. Or how to do  the process for an   Intercompany Elimination. 

Seems I have found a bug, not sure if this is the right place to get it solved. We have a calculation where we use text3 on the customer, which is the country code to find the freight rate on the country customer with that name. In the latest forecast the calculated numbers were lower than expected. While checking there is no value calculated for customers with text IN, Indian customers. The Cubeview I created now to check gives below message: Text in the Cubeview is: U3#39939, U3#30612, U3#Customer.base.Where(Text3 = 'IN'), I tried also Text3 startswith IN and Text3 = IN, all give the same message. When I change to IT (for Italy), there is no error. Somehow IN is invalid for this purpose it seems. Any idea how to solve, I can give it a different text, but would not be consistent.   Thanks in advance Ben

Hi All, We've recently encountered a problem whereby a OneStream journal entry booked in local currency at year end 2023 is not reflecting correctly in 2024. In the example provided below you'll see that the local currency amount has rolled forward correctly, however this is then not being translated to our reporting currency (USD). We've tried looking through the BR on the flow dimensions but haven't been able to identify the source of the problem. Any help here would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, 

hello team, new in OS , i need help if someone works on this tool.i am wondering if there is an equivalence of the hfm functionality "org by period" in OS ?is it possible in OS to manage the structure on a “Time sensitive” basis, and to have effective dates for changes ? i am aware that it's possible to do the changes of % of ownership or even change of type of ownership (full Conso, equity...) by period but am wondering if it will be possible if a change of the parent of the entity and having two hierarchies existing on the same cube/app thank you in advance

If a member has no parent then it's an orphan but if a parent member had children and they all get moved, the former parent is now... Regardless of the term, this company loves to do big reorgs a couple times a year that leave whole branches of a hierarchy empty. It's put me in the weird situation of having to hunt down these obsolete (disowned?) parents and manually remove them because they're now base level members with data and consolidations don't clear them the way I expected. From a technical viewpoint, I can see why this happens, as it's now just a base member that happens to have data and the consolidation doesn't particularly care *how* the data got there so it's not going to remove it. It's just... counterintuitive, unwanted, wrong, and generally annoying. For the most part, they've just orphaned the offending ex-parents and ignored them, forever. The few they have deleted have been cleared via the rather laborious method of creating a new (empty) member under the obsolete pa
