First time poster here!  I created a data source called Vista that has 4 different entities using it.  Each of those 4 entities has their own Workflow Profile and each entity is “assigned” to their respective Workflow Profile.   In the Data Source, how do I address this in the Entity field?  Is there a formula I can use to pull the Entity name from the Workflow Profile that is selected by the user?  So if the user is importing the “Chicago” entity (which is assigned to the “Chicago” Workflow Profile), can the Data Source somehow read that?

We have users that frequently desire to mass updates to their transformation tables.  We use the TRX download/upload process to export current mappings and upload changes.  This works great except the TRX buttons are only available to administrators.  I believe that these should be available to admins along with anyone within the assigned maintenance group.  Is there a way to provision this? 

Hi, I can't seem to find a method in the api that accepts a substitutionvariable object and returns the string value of that substitution variable. Or just get a dictionary of all predefined substitution variables and their values. Is this or something similar available?

Hi all, what do you usually suggest to clients as last step of a budget/forecasting cycle, to Close the workflow hierarchy or to Lock its workflows? I am just checking if there is any disadvantage by using one against the other. Also, is there a way of automating the closing/locking so that it is trigger on a certain date? I was thinking I can may create a rule encapsulated in a data management job and schedule that, but is there an easier way? Thank you

Hi All,We are using a spreadsheet component to capture some drivers from end users in our application, how do we customize the ribbon of the spreadsheet component to show only OneStream option in the ribbon?If I do right click, "Customize ribbon", it lets me display only OneStream in the ribbon , but the customization is lost on refreshing the page. Any guidance on how to retain this customization would be helpful.   

Hi,I have created some new balance sheet accounts relating to Right Of Use Assets, I have copied the structural dimensions from my existing fixed assets, so that every member property field matches. I use a generic cubeview for recording opening balance adjustments, when I key into all my other balance sheet accounts, then the derived value flows through the remainder of the year. This happens regardless of which is the first month I key into. However, for my new ROU accounts, it does not do it. The values just show as 0 and I have to key in the actual value manually each month thereafter. Here is some sample data to show what is/is not happening. Also, it does not matter which month is the first month.So what have I missed in creating these ROU account codes in the member properties ? They use the same flow constraint as my other fixed assets, so it's not that.Where else do I need to look ?CheersMark

This may be a long shot but I was wondering if there was any kind of functionality to have a message appear if you leave a dashboard page/try to close out of it. The use case is that I have a dashboard that has a button that is hitting when a conference call happens and it updates security groups so certain users can't make updates during the call. I have another button the user SHOULD hit when the call is done and this will put the security back to what it was originally.  If the user of the dashboard forgets to hit that other button at the end of the call then the security never changes back. Was hoping to give a pop up message or something that forces the user to hit that end call button so the security goes back to what it was.

I'm getting the message "'Function GetLiteralParameterValue(si As SessionInfo, isSystemLevel As Boolean, parameterName As String) As String' is obsolete: 'This is a temporary function used by Marketplace Solutions for backwards compatibility with old XF versions. Please change your code to use supported functionality.'."   Anyone know what object & method should I be using instead?     strSomeString = BRApi.Dashboards.Parameters.GetLiteralParameterValue(si,Nothing,"pm_SomeParameter")      

Is it possible to update the Application Security roles with in an extender Business rule? I want to be able to update the Modifydata role with the push of a button.

Hi AllI am updating the Admin Consolidations Dashboard (ADM) so that only some users can execute a Force Consolidate. I can hide the radio button group if the user does not have access but I am struggling to update the radio button group (Consolidate/Force Consolidate) so that the correct option is selected. The list of values for the radio button is controlled by a parameter (pm_ConsolType_ADM). In the LoadDashboard event I have updated this parameter using SetLiteralParameterValue (using v6.8). I am assuming that this is how the radio button selection is controlled as I can't find anywhere else where it can be set. If I click on the 'Reset parameter selections' it works.I have tried unsuccessfully to Redraw the dashboard like this:Dim selectionChangedTaskResult As XFSelectionChangedTaskResult = New XFSelectionChangedTaskResult()selectionChangedTaskResult.ModifiedSelectionChangedUIActionInfo.DashboardsToRedraw = "2_1_AutomationTasks_ADM"Any help you can give me is much appreciate

When I use the Pre-Aggregated Member settings, it is copying the data twice.  I've tried multiple settings and multiple scenarios.For example, I have tried just O#Top=O#Forms.  After I run the consolidation, there is data in both O#Import and O#Forms, doubled. It also happens with multiple Dimensions.  I've tried O#Top=O#Forms,U5#Top=U5#PlanningLoad and the data is doubled in both Dimensions 

I would like to create a derivative transformation rule that will add _Qty to the end of the Account and pull the ActualQuantity field from the data source as the Amount.My DataSource has a field for ActualQuantity.I have a Derivative Rule that looks like this:The complex expression on the derivative rule is:this returns 0 instead of the amount in the ActualQuantity field. Thank you in advance.

Hi,I am experiencing a strange behavior with a piece of code in the drill back of a connector rule.I have the following piece of code: If StageTableFields.StageSourceData.DimUD1.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Zero") Then whereClause.Append("And (Department IS NULL) ") 'Else ' whereClause.Append("And (Department = '" & SqlStringHelper.EscapeSqlString(sourceValues.Item(StageTableFields.StageSourceData.DimUD1).ToString) & "') ") End If  When the ELSE condition is excluded as above the first IF works:However, with the ELSE condition included (see code below) the retrieve from the Zero values does not work anymore: If StageTableFields.StageSourceData.DimUD1.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Zero") Then whereClause.Append("And (Department IS NULL) ") Else whereClause.Append("And (Department = '" & SqlStringHelper.EscapeSqlString(sourceValues.Item(StageTableFields.StageSourceData.DimUD1).ToString) & "') ") End If Any idea why this is happening? Thank you

Hi I always seem to get an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" in the error log when I execute data loads that use connector rules.The full error message is: ---------------------------------------- Exception Type: Unknown Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Stack Trace: at OneStream.Shared.Engine.XFTelemetryHelper.GetTaskActivityArgsInfo(SessionInfo si, TaskActivityArgs taskActivityArgs) in C:\agent\_work\411\s\Source\Shared\Engine\SharedEngineBase\UserActivity\XFTelemetryHelper.cs:line 55 The strange thing is that the data load is always successful... Does anyone know how to get rid of this error message?Thanks,Mark
