Dear community, Using Dynamic dashboard, is it possible to add completely new components from scratch ? So far, I was able to define a label with DashboardComponent function, and somehow add it to a component collection using WsDynamicDbrdCompMemberEx and adding it to WsDynamicComponentCollection . But that's it, I dont knw how to add it to my dynamic dashboard. Any hints ? Regards,

Hello, We are currently creating a series of dashboards at my team and have primarily used Chart (Advanced) components as these fit our needs the most closely. However, one limitation we have come across is that sometimes it's more fitting to have the Point Label Format in thousands and sometimes in millions. Is there a way to make the component decide which format to use automatically? I suspect that it might be possible considering you can do the following to handle negative values and hide zeros: {V:0,,M;(0,,M);''} I was thinking one might be able to do something similar for different magnitude values. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I'm trying to understand the best way to add annotations and comments in OneStream to explain variances. Last week at splash I was advised to use V#Annotation or V#VarianceExplanation.  But what I'm confused about is how do you actually get it connected to the calculated variance (red box), versus only being able to connect it so the actual reported number (yellow box).  Right now I'm using a get data formula in my quick view to calculate the variance (GetDataCell(S#Actual-S#AOP):Name(Variance)).What are other people doing when trying to provide commentary on variances?  Whats the best way to use this view?  

Hello all,I am looking to spread budget data across 12 months evenly, however my source is only designated one time.I am looking to split time into all twelve months of the year and divide the amounts accordingly. Is this possible? 

I am trying to query the data from the client source database through a Data Adapter, but it is returning this error:Is this an issue with our setup on the OneStream end or something with the database configuration on the client side?

Can someone help with creating a BR to customize scenario visibility for some entities using .NET ?I have a list of entities that don't share a common parent and want them to not be visible in the budget scenario. 

Good afternoon,Does anybody know which security setting would allow a user to delete files from their Temp Folder?I have tried changing the below System and Application Security Roles with no luck. Each time i get an error saying the User does not have permission to write to that folder.Private Sub ClearUserTempFolder(ByVal si As SessionInfo) Try Dim userName As String = si.UserName.Replace(" ", "") Dim location As FileSystemLocation = FileSystemLocation.ApplicationDatabase Dim folderPath As String = $"Internal/Users/{userName}/Temp" Dim fileTypeFilter As XFFileType = XFFileType.All Dim contentFileExtensionFilters As List(Of String) = Nothing ' Get list of files Dim objList As List(Of XFFileInfoEX) = BRApi.FileSystem.GetFilesInFolder(si, location, folderPath, fileTypeFilter, contentFileExtensionFilters) If objList IsNot Nothing AndAlso objList.Count > 0 Then For Each file In objList Try

Hi. I am using the FdxExecuteDataUnitTimePivot to pull data through a Data Adapter. My Setup now is only pulling the Names of the dimension members. Is there any way to get the descriptions as well?  My Code: Public Function ToNexusSalaryBridge(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As DashboardDataSetArgs) Dim sScenario As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("myScenario", String.Empty) Dim sYear As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("myTime", String.Empty) Dim sWorkspaceID As Guid = BRApi.Dashboards.Workspaces.GetWorkspaceIDFromName(si, False, "Default") Dim sRootEntity As String = "MyRootEntity" Dim cubeName As String = "Test" '# data unit dims Dim consName As String = "Aggregated" 'member name only, no dim token Dim scenarioTypeId As Integer = ScenarioType.Budget.Id Dim viewName As String = "Periodic" 'member name only, no dim token Dim entityDimName As String = "E_ELTBU"

We have a large flat hierarchy, members starting with Px_1000 to Px_9999. For example, P1_1000_27 Project 1, P5_1001 Project Yellow.... P7_9999 Project Bob. The numbers are unique (no two same number). We want a report that allows users to enter a "From" - "To" to pull back members in that range. For instance, only pull back members in the range "From" 500 To "532". Have an XFBR where I'm parsing the string, that's working, looping through and but only returning the number. The issue is that I need the entire string and description of the member. That's where I'm stuck. If anyone has done this before, would very much like know how you coded the XFBR. Thank you!

Is someone able to assist me with an alternative method for GetCalculatedFxRate on line 14 of the code below?  We just upgraded to 8.5.1 and this is no longer being supported.  In 8.2.3 it was still working.  This is a parser business rule that is being applied to a data source and calculation happening when data is being imported. '~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'Purpose: Get Translation rate for To/From currencies on current record. ' Store translation rate in global variable to use with subsequent records for performance improvements. '~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dim time As String = api.CurrentDataClusterKey.TimeName 'Get current time. Dim currencyRate As Decimal = globals.GetDecimalValue(fromCurrency & "-" & toCurrency & "-" & time) 'Check Global variable for current translation rate. If Not currencyRate =

Hi all,Do you know how to get the member description in a scpecific language using the Excell add-in? I suppose that it can be done using the "XFGetMemberProperty" but I can't find an example.Thank you. XFGetMemberPropertyThis function retrieves any Dimension Member property from the Member Properties tab in the Dimension Library. Note there are no spaces used when defining property name.XFGetMemberProperty(“DimTypeName”,“MemberName or Script”,“PropertyName”, “VaryByCubeTypeName”,“VaryByScenarioTypeName”,“VaryByTimeName”) As a reference when using BR: Get member description in user's culture code | OneStream CommunityBest regards,Carlos

Hi allI currently have a UD8 member to do a simple variance to actuals formula, but I was wondering if it is possible pass parameters to the UD8 member formula that this could be more dynamic? My current code looks something like this: Try 'Declare base and comparison scenario variables Dim currentScenario As String = api.Pov.Scenario.Name Dim comparativeScenario As String = "Actual" 'Define pov filters Dim currentFilter As String = "S#" & currentScenario & ":U8#None" Dim comparisonFiler As String = "S#" & comparativeScenario & ":U8#None" Return api.Data.GetDataCell("BWDiff("& currentFilter & "," & comparisonFiler & ")") Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try However, I'm trying to see if there is a solution where I could have the following: Dim comparativeScenario As String = |!Comparative_Scenario_Parameter!| Thanks,Mark

I am using a Cube View (IS) within a dashboard. The client does not want users to be prompted with parameters for selecting Entity, Time, or View. Instead, they expect these dimensions to be driven automatically by the Workflow Point of View While I’ve successfully applied WF  Time and View dimensions in the CV to align with the Workflow POV, I’m encountering an issue with the Entity dimension. It does not respond to the Workflow POV such sd WF, WFProfile, etc..  I either have to hardcode it, or use the Parmeter. Can I create a parameter that does not prompt a user make a selection?

Hi everyone, I suspect that this is fairly simple, but I haven't been able to find a solution as yet.I need to add formulas for Debtor Days, Creditor Days, and Inventory Days, all of which use 12-month averages in the calculation. The also all use the number of days in the month.Does anyone have an example of the syntax needed to include both of these?Thanks

I have some users who can't see the Map Transformation Report under the Application Reports.   I have check their POV (looks correct), can't find anything under Dashboard security.  Anyone have any suggestions as to why they can view some but not all the application reports?  The POV appears to be set properly and they can view the transformation rules other ways, so I don't think it's a security setting.  At a lost, has anyone encountered this?

I am trying to build a quick view where the Member Filter refers to a parameter but E#|!prm_Entity!| produces this error in Excel: #ERROR - The member filter contains unresolved parameters.    

Is it possible to create a dynamic calc UD8 dimension, that then filters down the members on the Account dimension at a base level? (and if so, how?) For example, within the Account dimension, I have Member A, Member B, Member C and Member D.Can I create UD8 dimensions of "Group 1" and "Group 2" where if Group 1 is selected, it filters down Account to only show Member A and Member B. And if I choose Group 2, it filters Account to only include Member C and Member D. I know this can be accomplished with an alternate hierarchy on the Account dimension but just checking to see if this can be done alternatively.  Thanks in advance!

Hi Team,I have scenario where the data is already loaded to system and now i just want to upload comments for that data. How we can achieve this to upload the comments only not entire data again with comments.Thank you..!!

I'm trying to change the WF POV via DashboardExtender BR. I noticed there is Enum XFSelectionChangedPovActionType but I don't see any object which can make a use of this. Any tips?

Hi All,I am currently setting up account reconcillations manager (RCM) and import both YTD GL data and Periodic Flow data in the actual scenario. I want to bring in just the YTD GL data into RCM, but it's bringing in both data sets. How can I exclude the Import Flow Data? I know that I can filter on the workflow profile "Import Flow Data" in the Account Rec inventory and delete them, but I'd rather the flow data just not come into RCM in the first place. Thanks for the help!

Hello, I created a dashboard with 3 different embedded dashboards. 2 are non-cube views and 1 is a cube view. I would like my parameter to only prompt and be able to be changed when I select the third tab.  Is there a way possible to accomplish my idea or am I stuck with the prompt happening when I select the dashboard? I've tried changing the dashboard types thinking it would default to what the other dashboards are but it still gives the parameter prompt on the first dashboard tab. Thanks, Will

Hello,Is it possible to add dynamic calcs (UD8 member) into an XF doc powerpoint? I am trying to create an XFCELL that uses a variance member in UD8. However, I keep getting 0 as the value.Also, is there a way for a user to see the settings/parameters once an XFdoc is downloaded from OS? I saw an example in GolfStream, but it's only the final document (or appears to be).Thank you!

HowdyI want to apply a Zero Suppression Threshold (of 1,000) in a Cube View for a specific column.However, the Account in my column is a Dynamic Calc. The suppression isn't working at all, can someone confirm if Zero Suppression Threshold is only available for Stored Data?If it is only available for Stored Data, is my best option to use a Member Formula instead of a Dynamic Calc? I've tried using Cube View Math as well but I get the same result as using a Dynamic Calc.Thanks in advance

I am trying to write some custom reports off of the RCM tables.  Does anyone know the translation of the number in the status column from the table to the name that shows in the UI?  Or does someone have a nifty way to retrieve that from the code?Thanks,Scott

Hi, I am working on an Import/Validate/Load step and built a Connector which gets data from an Application table and a Data source which use the said connector.The connector/Data source seem to work in the sense that that gets pulled in during the import step.However, when the import step is run I receive the following error: "Summary: Detail Cache summarization did not produce any Summary Data Rows." Does any of you know what could cause the issue and what the error message means?Thank you
