Hi, I am getting many metadata errors when loading a version 6.8 extract in a version 7.4 application. Are there differences in the xml structure between versions? Thanks

Hello, is there someone who knows how to get more information on this error?The next 2 messages refer to a scenario member, for which I run the calculation, but I don't see any "=" that has a wrong statement behind it, could of course be a small typo, but it's a large scenario formula. thanks in advanceBen

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out if there is a dashboard, marketplace solution, or custom report where I can view security groups/users and references where they are assigned to objects. Preferably with the ability to sort.For example:Security Group Name:"Security Group" Object:Application -> Workflow -> Workflow Profiles -> "Cube" -> "WorkflowProfile" -> Profile Properties -> Security -> Access GroupApplication -> Tools -> Business Rules -> Connector -> "Business Rule" -> Properties -> Security -> Maintenance Group   Thank you!

Hi Team,Under UD4 I have an XFBR string, which returns Jurisdiction - the case is I can't include there hierarchy.Base, as it needs a single entity to work. Is there any parameter like |CurrentEntity| which I can include in XFBR or do you have any idea how to solve it? 

Do we have a function that can be used in a member formula that will calculate the average of the last 3 periods.Example: If my current forecast month is June, I want to calculate the average for the months of May, April, March for which I have actuals for a given account. Thank you. 

Posting this because I searched for the answer before putting in a ticket with OneStream support (who were excellent, by the way).  One of our applications wasn't working in a lower environment.  The connection to the application SQL DB wasn't working.  Tried removing and adding it back using the OneStream Database Configuration tool.What the fix was:The “Invalid Connection” issue was due to the DB security settings for the service account user (that was running the OneStream server application).  Not quite sure what the issue was  -- it might have been the default schema for the user.  In any case, looking at the permissions for the user in the other application SQL databases where it was working correctly gave us the guide towards fixing the issue.

Is there a way to set the property of a dashboard button to disabled?  I have a dashboard that includes a number of button objects that execute various tasks, such as running a calculation, locking the workflow and so forth.  What I'd like to be able to do is to disable a button as part of a business rule so that the user has to follow a sequence of activities and can't, for example, keep pressing the calculate button on the dashboard. I don't see any property in the button object that supports enabled/disabled.

Hello All,   I would like to know if there is any Activity guide document for OneStream Application design represents the process to build a new cube..   Thanks in Advance

Dear Colleagues,Did you build the XFSetCell feature to import text fields from a spreadsheet into an Annotation view? Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.Regards

Is there any option for the users to see the Recent Pages they opened in the application? 'Navigate Recent Pages' allows the users to select and go back to a recent page, but this information gets removed when the session is closed. Please let me know if there is an option which persists between sessions? Thank you.

OneStream 7.4.1 (On-Prem)Looking to upgrade to 7.4.2.Has anyone developed a strategy to upgrade OneStream with minimal downtime?  Uninstalling and reinstalling the application takes time, and I would like to avoid as much downtime as possible.I am using 1 server for everything.I was thinking I could install 7.4.2 in another folder, but I believe the install would attempt to create the same IIS app pools that already exist.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Creating a post for custom coloring in dashboards.   For example, Onestream's dashboard selections give the option for custom color, however, it does not let you select it in the formatting. It only shows the option for #FF00000 (at least from what I have seen).   The above format is HTML coloring codes that can be manually updated in the display format Typically when matching client colors I am given RGB color codes, So I use the below converter to get the HTML code and add #FF to the beginning of the provided hex code.   https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_converter.asp

One of the new features in the 6.6 release is the introduction of Hybrid Source Scenarios.  I've watched the 6.6 release and read through the abbreviated examples in the admin guide. Both have good high level content, but they seem to be missing details around the Options section within the Hybrid Source Data of Scenario properties.Does anyone have any additional details around what options are available and a description of each? Or more content around Hybrid Source scenarios in general?Thanks,Added screenshot to provide context.

Originally posted by Katarina Sterley We have 4 extensions to our main cube and now we have a problem with the standard intercompany matching reports. The end users do not see the transactions on the lowest level from another cube. They only see the IC transactions within their own cube. If they look at the main account they see the transactions but that is not displayed in the standard intercompany matching report within the workflow. Like this from quickview: From Workflow report: Any suggestion on how we should solve this? Kind regards Katarina

Hi Team, can we run or test the business rules or code snippets outside OneStream environment? Do we have any SDK's to setup and test locally?ThanksManju

Hi,  As an admin user I can add and delete rows from a SQL table editor. However a non-admin user does not have access to do so. They can view the data but the add/delete row button on the toolbar are greyed out. Can someone tell me how to give them access to add/delete rows? Thank you Mark

If I have data coming from a connector in OneStream, and then I submit a sheet having XfSetCell formulas, what values will remain in OneStream after consolidation (having the same dimensions intersection)? The data coming from the connector, or the data submitted via XfSetCell? Thanks!

Hello,I am trying to limit the access of certain entities so they they can only see there own entites, i have it set up on the entities, cube, and the workflow profile so they have their own groups for each of their own set of data. The only issue is when they load their text files it is fine but when they run the transformation rules every line shows up as an invalid intersection and the error message is "No Security Access" for each line. I saw an article that recommended going to data access on the cube but i tested them empty and i tested them with what i thought the escalation rules should look like with no luck. So i wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas on possible solutions or where i might be wrong.Thank you

OS Version 7.4.2I have a SQL Table Editor in a dashboard.  Three columns: Date, Amount, Descr.  The user can edit Amount and Descr. No Inserts, no deletes.The table loads with a bunch of dates.  The user fills in amounts in records where needed. The descr and amount columns both accept nulls.With the "Save Data Server Task" set to "No Task", when an amount is added to one record (or several), and save is clicked, the following error occurs:With the "Save Data Server Task" set to "Execute Dashboard Extender Business Rule", I specify a Rule and get the same "Wrong Number of database rows" error.If I use the SQL Table Editor code supplied by OneStream in the Rule, the error in the log is:I'm trying another version of this which omits the use of the Using block. Same "Wrong Number of database rows" error and the log just shows "Unknown Error"  Public Class MainClass Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByV

Hello experts,How can we copy just data from an application to another?We have an on-premise setup and would like to copy data from prod environment to lower environment application.I know we can do simply do entire DB copy for that application, but it'll replace everything (like app artefacts).Is there a way we can just copy underlying data of an application? I noticed some data tables (BinaryData20xx, DataRecord20xx), but not sure if simply copying them will work. Thanks,Gaurav

Hi everyone-I am trying to create a reporting solution that can display data from two close calendar periods in a single cube. Is it possible to include two time profiles in a single cube?
