Hello, How can I see the signage from aggregation weights. For example I have these 2 account groups in a hierarchy: PL44000000 has aggregation weight 1 PL43700000 has aggregation weight -1 When I show these in a cube view with SG&A.Children.Base all numbers are showing as positive numbers, which makes it difficult to see how it adds up. This example is still straightforward, but I have some more complex use cases.  Is there a way to show the numbers based on the aggregation weight, or just show the value from the aggregation weight on the meta data member (-1, or 1 in this example)? Thanks in advance      

I am new to OneStream and I am trying to find out how you retire an entity.  I have gone into the entity and tried to change the vary by scenario type but cannot get to where you would change to False for "In Use".  Any suggestions

Hi all, new OneStream consultant and developer here. I am trying to build out a cube view for a client and I think I need to use CV math for one of the columns, but I am not sure... I need my 'Var%' column to show the difference of Actual and Budget scenarios, which I assume should be very simple, but I do not know how to do it.  Here is a partial screenshot of the Excel report I am re-creating: The row this intersects with is using the following: a gross profit account and a U8 calculation for percent of rev. The current data is showing the percent of rev for the Actual column. Do I need to use CV math within an override to get the desired result?  Thanks in advance!!!

This post is to illustrate how to call a public function of a Finance Rule from within XFBR rule. The Finance Rule has a function called EntityText8 splitter, and I need to call it from within a XFBR rule. To make it work, first need to make the Finance Rule "True" - Contains Global Functions for Formulas (in Rule Properties) and refer to the specific rule assembly in XFBR rule properties (screenshot2). The XFBR rule reads: '-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Returns the Entity in Text8 or emtpy '-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'BRString(SeedingXFBRStrings, Text8Entity, curEntity=|CVEntity|, curScenario=|CVScenario|) 'XFBR(SeedingXFBRStrings, Text8Entity, curEntity=|CVEntity|, curScenario=|CVScenario|)   If args.FunctionName.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Text8Entity") Then   Dim curEntity

I have a cube view that utilizes a shared Row and Column set. The row set has roughly 300 rows. Is there a way to Supress NoData Rows across the entire cube view - as opposed to modifying the setting row-by-row? Thanks, Matt

Hello, The customer would like to explain a dollar variance between Budget and Actual by leveraging 4 columns of data to explain the difference displayed: enter a dollar amount, a combo box to select a type of UD1 data timing (Perm/Temp) and another combo box to select UD8 driver type (Audit Change/Scope Change) with the last column for a comment.  The comment input cell has the following: V#Annotation with UD3&UD5 based upon the CV POV selection and the remaining UD's set to None; V#Annotation:UD1#None:UD8#None. For reporting purposes the customer would like to associate the commentary entered with the Combo Box selections made for UD1 and UD8. V#Annotation:UD1#Perm:UD8#AuditChange What is the best method to do this? I have tried the following: api.Data.Calculate("U8#AuditChange:V#Annotation:U1#Perm":O#Import" _& " = U8#None:V#Annotation:U1#None:O#Top")

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem with the Harvest directory. Indeed, I have two batches running at the same time and which retrieve files from an SFTP to put them in the Harvest directory in order to load them into the WF corresponding to each file, for this I use this line coded :Dim batchInfo As WorkflowBatchFileCollection = BRApi.Utilities.ExecuteFileHarvestBatch(si, fixedScenario, systemTime, valTransform, valIntersect, loadCube, processCube, confirm, autoCertify, False) But with this line I do not filter the files present in Harvest. Is there a way to filter by file name inside Harvest which seems to be common and mandatory? Thank you for your help

Hi All- We are trying to create a BI Viewer to compare Current v Previous Qtr OPEX. We look at the end date (only two end dates possible of course) to create a Current QTR measure (max end date) as below. However, I can't seem to get the syntax for the measure correct. Not sure what I am missing which is generating the error below: A Summary Expression is Expected    

We are capturing parent entity adjustments, and they are not rolling to C#Share. Any idea what the cause may be or how to enable this.

I have a requirement for a book to produce different views (i.e. Periodic, QTD, YTD) based on the WFTime. The periodic report should always appear no matter the WFTime, however the QTD Version will only appear in certain months. I cannot get the "if" statement shown below to trigger.  I have an item to change a dashboard parameter present in the CV as well.  Is my syntax incorrec on the "If" statement?  Any help would be appreciated!

Hi, I am trying to build in an if statement in a cubeview (getdatacell formula) on the cell amounts. In specific: If cellamount of CVC(col 10) > CVC(col 11) then CVC(col1) else CVC(col1).  The reason why I am trying to do this in a cubeview getdatacell is because the col 10 an col 11 are referencing other columns and those other columns are referencing other columns in return. A workaround would be to recreate these column references in BR or create new members with formulas doing similar. But I am trying to avoid recreating this if possible. Hope someone have ideas.
