We have noticed that BI Blend drop tons of lines during the import and does not log any error. We took few not loaded entries and try to load to table again but getting below error.  Just few lines of data. Tried to play around with Agg properties but could not find any solution. Summary: BI-Blend base data does NOT match any Aggregation Base Members.

Hi, want to copy quarterly input data through business rule. the destination scenario is defined as monthly input. in the destination code , i want to specify months which system doesn't allow. we need pass in DM Job. As i have several quarters to copy , can anybody share some thoughts how we can achieve this. Thanks, Swadhin.

I am trying to automate a yearly load of data from a business rule.  I want the rule to loop through a set of periods and run a specific workflow for that period.  The workflow uses a connector rule in which I get the scenario and period of the workflow being run.  THe issue I am facing is that I can get the WorkflowPK for the workflow/scenario/time that I want to run.  But when I call BRApi.Import.Process.ExecuteParseAndTransform with that key, a workflow starts, but if I happen to be on that workflow in the session I am running it picks up the POV from where I am at.  So if I want my business rule to run 3 periods (Jan - Mar).  If I am on Dec, then it runs December every time.  Below us how I get the WFPK and call the Dim wfClusterPk As WorkflowUnitClusterPk = BRApi.Workflow.General.GetWorkflowUnitClusterPk(si, wfProfileInfo.Name, wfScenarioName, wfTimeName) '--------------------------------- ' Parse and Transform: '--------------------

Is it possible to format (ie bold/background color/text size/etc) the column headers of a BI Viewer Grid that uses a SQL data adapter? I know how to conditionally format the values, but haven't found a way to format the actual header line....    

Hello, everyone, Could you please advise where (in what folder) all attachments to journals are stored in OneStream?   

I am building a report that uses a nested parameter.  This report will run on a dashboard within Guided Reporting if it makes any difference. My parameters are Member List types. EntityParam1 uses a member filter of E#Corporate.ChildrenInclusive. This is controlled by a combo box on the dashboard. Let's pretend the user selects E#Legal as the value for the combo box, one of the children of E#Corporate.EntityParam2 has a member filter of |!EntityParam1!|.ChildrenInclusive.ChildrenThe member filter I want it to return is E#Legal.ChildrenInclusive.ChildrenWhen I run this nested parameter, it runs E#Corporate.ChildrenInclusive.ChildrenInclusive.Children, which throws an error at some point.  How can I use EntityParam1 to only return the E#Legal member for my nested filter?I would think the answer lies within a literal parameter but haven't found a method that automatically uses the selected value of my first parameter. Thanks in advance.

Hello All,Anyone know if it is possible to pass a parameter value into the PLP Register?  I have a method query returning a value based on scenario & year and need that to be the column header in the register.  This is more of a POC than a hard requirement at this point.Any creative suggestions are welcome. 

Hello, Did anyone use Application.DoEvents() in v8.4? I am getting below message during compile even with "Imports System.Windows.Forms". Any help will be appreciated. JC

I'm making a simple event handler rule that sends an email when a workflow is processed. I would like the email to include the datetime when it was processed, the user who did it, the workflow, workflow profile and entity. However I've only been able to include the date and time. My code is structured like this: Main calls the sub XFR_HandleEndProcessCube() Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As DataQualityEventHandlerArgs) As Object Try Dim returnValue As Object = args.DefaultReturnValue args.UseReturnValueFromBusinessRule = False args.Cancel = False Select Case args.OperationName Case Is = BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.EndProcessCube Me.XFR_HandleEndProcessCube(si, globals, api, args) End Select Return returnValue Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function XFR_HandleEndProcessCube() sub sends the email, using the help

Hi all, I have set up Cube Data Manager. I am getting this error when I click on “Metadata”: Any idea on how to solve this? Thank youDaniela

We have a workflow structure such that each entity has it's own workflow, with a number of steps for Import, Forms and Journals.   We had an issue recently where one entity (e.g. E123) accidentally posted a journal to the wrong entity (e.g. E321). I can't see any way in the workflow settings to prevent this.  I know in the Import workflow steps there is the option 'Can Load Unrelated Entities', but I can't see anything similar on the Adjustment workflow step.

Hi, My colleagues and I are interested in reviewing pre-transformed data side-by-side with the records from post-transformation data, as we're looking to move our transformation process further upstream and we wanted to validate the accuracy of our new transformation process against OneStream's transformations. I've reviewed the examples in GolfStream in the transformation event handler and I understand how to review the stage data, but I'm unsure how to find the matching transactions after they get transformed. Has anyone done anything similar before and would be able to share insights into how I can review the data at the validate and match them to the records in stage? Thanks! Alex

Hello,I am working on a navigation dashboard that includes a button to navigate to a specific workflow. The button works perfectly with the navigation action below. However, it seems that when XFPage is set to Workflow, we cannot keep the dashboard open in another XFPage.Do you know if there is a syntax similar to OpenInNewXFPage=True that allows us to navigate to the workflow while also keeping the navigation dashboard open?Thanks in advance,BeatlesForever

Hi, is it possible to hide 2 columns in a Cube View? I need them for calculation only, but hide from the report. If I set format IsColumnVisible to False or CVMathOnly for one column, it works. If I set it to two columns, I get no data on third data at all, while it should show data.

Getting this error while loading data from BI Blend table to the stage data in the workflow. We have five workflow and trying to union to load the data to the stage & eventually to the cube. However when we load from one table it fail & give column mapping error but clear data and reload next one then it goes through.    

Hi,I am encountering a few issues with dashboard creation. My goal is to display all the reporting dashboards on a single dashboard. Below is a screenshot of my current setup.I have one combo box named "Report Type," which contains a delimited parameter with options like Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and Trial Balance. Additionally, there is a list box that contains a list of report names. I’ve connected a business rule to the list box parameter to dynamically populate the report names based on the selection from the "Report Type" combo box.I also created an embedded dashboard with the main cube view. Could someone please assist me with the cube view part? Specifically, when I select a report from the "Report Name" list box, its cube view should display on the right side.Could you help me understand the changes I need to make in "Consolidated Report_Sub_CV" to pull the corresponding report cube views based on the selection in the report name list box?

Hello, I was wondering if it's possible to have a check figure if the amount equals 0 that it displays "OK" and if it doesn't it says "Check Details". I've tried conditional formatting when the cell amount = 0 then "OK", but I figured I'm missing something or this might just not be possible. Thanks, Will

Has anyone had success with the change parameters (Variables)?  I have several reports that all have a simple substitution variable |CVTimeDesc|.  When running the book, I would like to change that Variable to predefined text, however, this doesn't seem to be working.  

Has anyone been able to build a waterfall chart in BIViewer? I feel like this is something that I should be able to be done, but I can't find anything on it. Anyone know if this can be done? I know there is an advanced chart for waterfalls.  Thanks

Hi - we're trying to PULL files from an SFTP server. These will be used for our OneStream load. Are there any sample BRs that we can reference to facilitate the file transfer from the SFTP server to OneStream? Are there libraries readily available in OS for this?   So far, we have completed the following. 1. Whitelisting of OS IP from SFTP Server 2. Received SFTP server and credentials needed   Thanks!

Hi All,  I create a spreadsheet business rule to refresh the data from external table using Table Views, now our users wants to drop these files into OneStream file share on daily basis so external systems can consume.  Is it possible to use parcel service to refresh these files (using table views with in the spreadsheet) and drop them into file share every time the job trigger ?  Or Is there any alternate approaches to export data from custom table to excel files ? Thank you. 

Looking for some code on grabbing all entities with a text1 field of "ABC" and then run logic on them.  I didnt see anything in the Golfstream app to use.  

Is there a way to hardcode a number into a cubeview?
