Hi, let's say I have a dimension with Member001 to Member020 being siblings. In a cube view I want to have rows with all members from Member001 to Member012. Using cube view designer, what's the syntax to specify the range, without having lo list all the 12 members? Thank you

Good morning, We're configurating IC matching permissions. When entity A sells to entity B and there's a difference in amount, user X must conciliate and match transactions. X belongs to seller entity A, and he has permissions in A, but not in B. That’s why he can’t see any IC transactions, unless we give him permissions in B. My question is: what are the minimum permissions in OS to give X the ability to do IC matching between A and B, but no more.   Thanks in advance,     Ramon Odriozola

Happy inflation and food shortages <Not!!>Quick question. I have over 15 years experience in Essbase and find it confusing that we have multiple 1Stream cubes in one 1Stream application - but they all share the same outline!! I think I understand 1S extensibility.Is there an article that explains the differences of Essbase vs 1Stream? I would like to suggest to 1Stream developers to show cube name somewhere when I open a workflow. I don't see a way to tell if that workflow is for which cube!! very confusing.  

Hi everyone, Can someone explain how the UD Member property "Is attribute member" works? I would like to assign to my UD5 members some attributes and be able to create CubeView base on the attributes. As an example, my UD5 could be Customers and the attribute I would like to assign to each Customer is the type of Customer (Retail, non-retail etc).  I thought I would use the "Text 1" property of my Customer members to input the type of costumers. I would then create a separate UD5 dimension "CustomerAttributes" and list all the attributes. Finally, enable the "Is attribute memeber" property of my "CustomerAttributes" dimension members and do a comparison between the value in the Text 1 of my Customer members and the value in the "Comparison Text 1"  of my attribute members.

Quickviews are not showing in task activity . Is this a bug ? Or is there any other ways to monitor the quickviews launched by users

What is the best way to design and implement constant fx rate analysis?  We want to apply a budget rate to all months for actual/fc/budget.  Entities are loaded in local currency and I thought it would be simple to use an entity hierarchy in which I'd put the custom rates at the parent level so during consolidation it would use the set fx rates.  Unfortunately this is not working as I had hoped, I'm not seeing a difference at the parent level between the "real" hierarchy and the constant rate hierarchy. Thank you.

Happy "end of forced masking" everyone!    Why can't we log in as user administrator recently? We get message "invalid user or password" Maybe Our user administrator is locked out due to too many attempts to login with invalid password. How do I unlock ? (ps. I read OS Design and Reference guide about enabling users - I see that user Administrator is enabled. 

Hi to all, Im looking for any idea on how to inactivate users automatically. Let me know your thoughts.

Often global companies may report a metric like units sold or volumes in a stat account.  But that unit of measure may vary by region or country.  Below is one option for handling the conversion of stat accounts like units sold or volumes.   For example: Metric Ton to US Ton Kilograms to Pounds Liters to Gallons Etc   Here are some high level ways to tackle this in an application.    Considerations: Entities are tagged with currency already Normal Revenue/Expense account types will naturally get “AverageRate” table PVA method (all else equal) Normal Assets/Liability account types will naturally get “ClosingRate” table VAL method (all else equal) You need to identify which accounts (aka UNITSSOLD) need a translation rate table that differs You need to identify which entities are sending which volumes to drive translation to use different rate table   Your conversion rates do not vary over time so you really just need to store these

Hi  We have set up a line of business attribute in our UD3 dimension based on cost centres. It has become clear that in several reports we need to aggregate some of these members. I think the easiest way to do this would be if we could introduce a new layer between the current parent and children. My questions are a) is it possible to do this and if so how? and b) how would this impact reports that are already in circulation? I have tried to illustrate what I'd like to do in the picture below. Thanks

Hi all,   We've recently implemented RCM and I have one issue I'm trying to figure out. Certain accounting teams want to do reconciliations (for SOX controls) on certain accounts that have always had 0$ balances in the account month ends. I'm currently lost on how to get these into discovery - since it seems there has to be a balance at least one time for it to be populated there.   Is the a manual way to add a couple of all-time 0$ balance accounts that way there will be a reconciliation option for it?

Is there a way to customize the charts in TM dashboard to show category 2 values as X axis?

Hi Everyone, Thanks in advance for the responses. I am reviewing the impacts on a force consolidate on a specific entity and noticed that my results differ when i run a force conoslidate from a cube view and a force consolidate using the calculation definition within process cube.  I made sure that my POV was identical on the cube view versus the process cube.  Can someon explain to me what the difference is or how there could be a difference between the two methods? Thank you!  

We just downloaded the latest version of ACM released in March. I am using the ACM BRs to load hierarchies from a table into OS dimension. I have populated the member and tree tables as needed and everything seems to be working fine, however we are not seeing an option in which this load would follow a “merge” like behavior.  Currently if my table does not have a specific member or relationship. Onestream is just deleting/orphaning those members.  Is there a way to have this behave like merge that it does not delete existing members in Onestream which is not present in the table or incoming load. We had similar behaviour in prior version of ACM but are not seeing this now. 

I am building a data adapter utilizing the SQL command type. In my query, I reference the ConsId field. What database table can I join to for the Name/Description fields for the ConsId field on my primary table?  For example, I can join to the [Member] table on the [DimTypeId] and [MemberId] fields to return Name/Description fields of an entity or account, ect. I'm also looking for currency ID Name/Description, if that is held in a different location than ConsId. Example of my query: SELECT JLT.[ConsId] FROM [JournalLineItem] as JLT LEFT JOIN JLT.[ConsId] = [Tbl_Cons_DimensionData???] WHERE JLT.JournalID = 'ABC'

Happy end of Ukraine war (hopefully)?? We have 9 Windows on-premise servers. 1) How do I know Which one is our OneStream app server, Data Management server etc? 2) I am running Parcel services which writes to OneStream's C:\OneStreamShare\Fileshare\Applications\Will that write to OneStream's application server or DM server?  Parcel services kicks off a Data management job that exports files/reports to that C:\OneStreamShare\Fileshare\Applications\ folder. Thanks for your help.

What is the best way to stop administers to see the PLP Register and plan tables from the system /database tab. We have added the access/maintenance  group for ancillary tables setting in the config file,  however that is only stopping getting the to the PLP register dashboard. However it is not stopping the following two items Admins being able to go to system/database and see the table dataIf I create a new dashboard with a data adapter and write a sql query on the register table, any user with access to the dashboard is able to see the salary data. What is the best practice for this. Also – if we use any additional custom tables to load additional comp related data , is there any way to provide security on those custom tables ?

We are exporting batches of reports using "Parcel service" - each report is exported to a folder with "2022_March" in its name. At the beginning of April (and every month) I had to go into each report's path and manually change the path to "2022_April" of each output filename-report to reflect the new month.  I think the solution is to extract (export ) the Parcel reports parameters to XML file, change the paths manually, then re-import the new XML file. However, I exported all Dashboards and application - I was not able to find Parcel report parameters.Any idea where to extract them?We Clicked on System> Environment under the Tools menu. - Click on an App Server within the Application Server Sets menu. -On the Configuration tab, there is an entry for FileShareRootFolder; but that's not where the path is defined. 

Hosted by Azure/Managed by OS, so never spent anytime learning how to monitor our environment other than at the very high level (System-Environment-Refresh). Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.  Really looking to see how long Excel queries take, steps within consolidations and just general overhead.  I seem to remember something provided within Azure to monitor but not sure if that is still around or not.  We are heavy for 8 days and adding more functionality so need to make sure we can still run acceptable during that time.
