Reporting

We have a user that runs a number of books whose Excel results contain dozens of sheets in a single Excel workbook.  The user is asking whether it is possible to create a 'Table of Contents" cube view that will show up at the beginning of the Workbook and contain hyperlinks to each sheet in the workbook. This would allow all users who reference this workbook to more easily scroll to the particular sheets of interests. Does anyone know if this is even possible?

Hello. I am trying to create a column set showing M1-M12 for the previous year based on Global Time. I can do this successfully using WFYear and POVYear as shown: T#YearPrior1(|WFYear|).BaseT#YearPrior1(|POVYear|).Base However, this syntax generates an error  =>   T#YearPrior1(|GlobalYear|).Base I can get close using  =>  T#GlobalYear.Prior1.BaseBut, it adds a column for the year which we do not want:   Thanks,Bil Brandon

We have a CubeView that is setup with the Accounts in the Rows as A#NetIncome.TreeDescendantsInclusive. Our Expansion setting is set to Collapse All. Is there a way to have it only expand one level (e.g. Children) when the cube view renders, with the (+) icon to expand further if the user decides? Right now the expansion option seems binary as Collapse All or Expand All. 

For planning.Filling data in on quarters spreads the data out to the monthly columns.We do not want to see the monthly columns anymore. When set isColumnVisible = False you are not allowed to enter data on quarters, it becomes a no input. Is there a bypass, so we are able to enter data on those quarters?

Hi, is there a simple way to create a cube view with the member name and description in different columns?  Specifically, when there are nested members in the row.  I can pull in UD8, but they come in on two columns after the names which looks odd. thanks, Greg

Hello All,   I am working on a dynamic calc in the account dimension to calculate percent margin. If the percent margin shows above 100% or below -100%, I want the cube view cell to display 'NMF'. At the moment I believe I have the syntax correct in my formula, but maybe my execution isn't right on. My suspicion is that I can't return strings for the CreateDataCellObject. Full formula below:   Any help is much appreciated!   Dim PM As DecimalPM = CDec(api.Data.GetDataCell("Divide(A#PRODUCT_MARGIN,A#PRODUCT_REVENUE)").CellAmount) If PM > 100 ThenReturn api.Data.CreateDataCellObject("NMF", False, False)Else If PM < -100 ThenReturn api.Data.CreateDataCellObject("NMF", False, False)ElseReturn api.Data.GetDataCell("Divide(A#PRODUCT_MARGIN,A#PRODUCT_REVENUE)")End If  

Hello community, We have build a custom dashboard, within there is a circle graphic and several lines with the users info. When trying to export to PDF only downloads X number of lines, but not all the lines that are close to 450. Instead, when downloading using the export to excel it does export all the lines. Any thoughts? Do I have to configure something in order the PDF export all the information within the dashboard? Many thanks in advance, Arion

For planning I have 3 rows with the same account Origin; Beforeadj (Aggregation) Import (Shows seeded actuals) Forms (Input) Scenario's in the columns and a separate column we have comments. (Annotation) We overwrite the Import and Beforeadj with forms. Means it will show 3x times the same text in the row. Anybody knows how to bypass the origin behavior? We basically want to post on all the 3 rows separate comments.

Hi all, Currently we are trying to automate some offline reporting processes via excel macro enabled workbook (.xlsm). Basically these files contain both XFGetCell and regular excel formulas and then there is a macro in place which combines the numbers from all different tabs into one, removes all unnecessary lines and then generates a OneStream load file.  These excel files are very large in size and they take forever to refresh from the desktop. The same files are refreshing much faster if we run them directly into OneStream Spreadsheet (Application>>Spreadsheet). So no issue with the refresh within OneStream application but as soon as I save the *.xlsm file within OneStream, the file got corrupted, and I'm not able to open the same file again from my desktop. See the error screenshot below. Has anyone seen this issue before and know how to fix it? Please let us know if you know the answer.  Thank you in advance!!!   Shetal Patel Shetal.Patel@xylem.com OneStream

HI   I have been asked by our Finance team to build a report that summarises intercompany variances to speed up the hunt for mismatches. We use the current out of the box interco reports but they want something quicker and easier to use. Just wondered if anyone else has used/built something similar ? Thanks Tahir

Hi, in reference to the code sample below.  Is it possible to visualize the consolidated comments on separate lines in a cube view?  They start running together and get hard to read.  I tried inserting Environment.NewLine or {vbNewLine} into the code but that did not seem to work.  Any suggestions?

Hi, I'm trying to build a cube view having a list of Entities on the rows. I'd like the row label to be the entity description followed by the entity currency. I was trying to use the Name function to do that. I am able to display the entity currency like this for example: E#Tot_Entity.TreeDescendantsInclusive:Name(XFMemberProperty(DimType=Entity, Member=|MFEntity|, Property=Currency)) Similarly I can use the XFmemberproperty function to retrieve the member description, like this: E#Tot_Entity.TreeDescendantsInclusive:Name(XFMemberProperty(DimType=Entity, Member=|MFEntity|, Property=Description))   However, I have been unable to combine the 2 things. How do I concatenate strings within the Name function? Thank you

Hi all, Does anyone know how to easily overview changes in the EntityDim in terms of Percent Consolidation and Percent Owenership between periods and years? Can this be extracted in a prebuilt report or built in a cube view? For example if I would like to get a snapshot of one hiearchy in the EntityDim including percent ownership and percent consolidaiton for period 2020M10? Thanks, Fredrik

Hi, I have created a dashboard which contains multiple BI viewer components. Each BI viewer component is composed of a data grid and a set of list box filters. Is it possible to setup the BI views so that the selection done on the filters by a user is retained when switching to a different BI view within the same dashboard.If an user select the Cost center "0002 Internal Audit" in the first BI view, and the same user then select the second BI view, the selection on the Cost center filter (which is available on both BI views) is not retained and the filter defaults back to "Select All". Is there a way to change this behavior? Is there something I should have setup to have the filter shared between the multiple BI views?Thank you

We recently upgraded from 6.8.1 to 7.1.3 and I have about 5 users who are having issue with Excel add-in.All of them are getting below error once they login. I tried disabling all other add-in etc but it’s not working.Any ideas?Saurin

Hi all,  In a CubeView we want to see selling and buying members in one row. So for Column 1 is sales where the Entity is the selling entity and IC is the retrieving entity. in the same CubeView Column 2 is stock where the Entity is the Buying Entity and IC the selling entity. So for Column 1 i want to see E#Entity:I#IC and for column 2 E#IC:I#Entity. This is straightforward in an xfGetCell in excel but then i cannot do row suppression. I haven't found a way (yet) to get the current row's Entity and populate the IC dimension with that value using e.g. an xfbr rule.   Thanks in advance,  Marc

Hi,I'm trying to create a dynamic calc script that will increase this column's value by 1 for each member in the adjacent column. For some reason, my script is not doing it instead it is returning the same number 2, Would you guys be able to assist with this?  I'm trying to do it in a cube View. Thanks. In reality, I just need to increase each row number by 1 and I believe it may be possible. Ideally, I want it to be a Dynamic Calc over an XFBR. Has anyone done this before? Can it be done in the UD8 Dimension?

Hello,   As my title indicates, I am trying to create comment columns within my CV's that utilize the V#Annotation and V#VarianceExplanation members and am stuck at a roadblock with this error: Error saving data attachment. The intersection is read-only. Is this something handled within security? Any help is appreciated.   EDIT: I have heard that one possibility is that this is not a base level member that I want to make a comment to. Could that be the reason why? And if that is the case, is there a way to get around this?
