Application Build

hello team  i am new OneStream consultant  kindly need to know how to setup Midstream Metadata Manager on OneStream application   Regards 

Hello, Wondering if anyone knows how to set up dimensions in order to have the following requirement :  - Users with access to the cube Consolidation need access only to data from the dimension B - Users with access to the cube Accounting need access only to data from the dimension C - Users with access to the cube FP&A need both access to data from the dimensions B & C (dimension A) The following setup does not yet meet our needs :  Thanks for your help. Harry

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, 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,

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 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:

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. 

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, 

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

Has anyone else see any issues running the OneStream clients on Windows 11? We are testing OneStream on Windows 11 and we keep seeing the error message "The specified data could not be decrypted"  when attempting to access a few modules such as Cube Views, Dashboards, Business rules, etc.  I believe it's a .NET issue since the error can pop up in either the Desktop client, Web client and Excel Add-in.

Hello, We are currently seeing slow consolidation times after we copy data from one scenario to another. If we run a force consolidation in the source scenario the full year takes around an hour or so. When running the consolidation in the target scenario it is taking 4+ hours to complete. Both scenarios are using the same scenario type.Anyone have ideas on what could be causing this issue? Seems odd that the same data set would have such huge deviations in run times. This is the second quarter we have seen the issue.  Thanks for your help! Tim

Hi all,  I use the dashboard to trigger data import from external database. After successfull import I want to make the workflow step (type Workspace) complete by calling SetWorkflowStatus. Strange thing is that is does work when I directly call the Extensibility rule from Button, but it does not when I call the same rule from data management process. Do you know why this happens and how can this be bypassed?  Thanks for help! Pavel  

In developing applications, I prefer to group objects intuitively using standardized naming, alphanumeric sorting, and hierarchical grouping.  Dashboard parameters use the "Sort Order" property to sort, which for me adds unwanted cognitive load to a development process.I developed the code below to automatically sort and group parameters the way you would expect them to be sorted to get around the need to specify Sort Order. Implement as an extensibility rule and run it from the editor.  After the rule is run, copy, paste an existing parameter, then delete the pasted parameter to force a refresh of the list from the server.  Be sure to remove this code from your production applications. C# using System; using System.Data; using OneStream.Shared.Common; using OneStream.Shared.Database; using OneStream.Shared.Wcf; using System.Linq; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; using System.Threading.Tasks; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.Extend

We are currently building a simple form for Shipping Days that allows a user to input an entire year's worth of shipping days all at once. We want this to be a Periodic view to align with how the client thinks about shipping days for each month. We are entering the data into our Actual scenario, which has a Default View of YTD. The below screenshot shows the basic form structure and the YTD row is there for reference. The initial data entry worked great. However, if I go back to a previous period to change a periodic value, I want the new periodic value to update for that month and keep the remaining periodic values the same. However, changing a periodic value squeezes the difference into the next month to keep that month's YTD value the same. In the below screenshot, Cell (1) was changed from 23 to 18 in March 2022. The March 2022 YTD amount updated accordingly. However, the periodic amount in April 2022 (Cell (2)) automatically changed from 20 to 25 so that the YTD amounts for April

Hi Experts, I am trying to use a member filter based on the Text property. Here are the sample text property values: Member1  = PASSTHRU~[False]|IPL~[False] Member2  = PASSTHRU~[True]|IPL~[False] I wanted to filter the members that have " PASSTHRU~[True] " in the text property, i tried the filter below but it returned no results: U4#Top.Base.where(Text8 Contains PASSTHRU~[True]) I do get results if i use U4#Top.Base.where(Text8 Contains PASSTHRU~), but as soon as i add  " [ " character, it doesn't pull any members.  Any suggestion would be helpful. I tried all the below formats, nothing worked: U4#Top.Base.where(Text8 Contains 'PASSTHRU~[True]') U4#Top.Base.where(Text8 Contains [PASSTHRU~[True]]) U4#Top.Base.where(Text8 Contains PASSTHRU~[[True]])

Hi All, Is there a way to set up default workflow POV period each month for users instead of them going into the tool and changing the period .     Thanks in advance.  

My company is implementing a new ERP system and I need to map the new accounts into our old structure. I am fine with the transformation rules I simply extract out make changes and load back up all is done in our Dev environment. My issue is how do I download to add accounts in the dimension library, If i added manually it will take forever.    Thanks in advance Mark

Hi all, With the version 7 and above the switch between applications with the addin Excel requires to log off and log on. You cannot switch applications and stay connected. Admin team have to switch often between applications and this new mechanism is seen as a step backwards. Is it possible to restore the previous mechanism with the functionality: Change Application Thanks

Hi all, How do we calculate Data Unit in OneStream ? I know that the largest Data Units should never be above 2-3 million intersections. The sweet spot for OneStream is between 250,000 and 500,000 records. But what can be the maximum possible records in the given example we can have to avoid performance issue in OneStream ? Please consider these dimensions in OneStream. Thanks

Hi all, We are in the process of implementation. How to eliminate Share Capital of the subsidiary where Percent Consolidation (PCON) and Percent Ownership (POWN) is 100%  Thanks

Hello, Let's assume we have the entities in the dimension "Entity" and the Business Units in a UDx dimension . In this case, is it possible to trigger intercompany eliminations at Business Unit level ?  Thanks, Regards, Harry  

Hi, Can somebody please tell me the process/code of clearing multiple errors let's say 12 pages from Error Log in one go? There is a limitation in Administrator Solution Tools to delete logs prior to 30 days. I would really appreciate the help. Thanks  

I've had requests from our finance team about sharing entities from our "Top" cube into another. Our application is in a mature phase now and many of the entities from our top cube will be moving into cubes of their own.  Currently, we only have two options: Option1: Completely clear the entity, delete, and the create in the new cube and reload the data.  Option2: Rename the entity i.e "EntityA_Old" and create a new entity in the new cube with the old name "EntityA" It would be great if there were a better option
