Rules

Hi, I am working on extracting data from a Cube view to a flat file. I am using FDXExecuteCubeView query to extract. The extract file is executed to run for one year. I am seeing for each Entity, Scenario, Time (DU) a log entry is created in Task Activity. The Task Activity is getting flooded with cube view log entries. Is there a way to stop the Cube view entries for each Page (Entity, Scenario, Time).? On the Cube view I have the log setting set to False and also in the FDXExecuteCubeView setting I have the logStatistics setting set to False. Is there a way to not log the entry for each time cube view is run for (Entity, Scenario, Period)?  Appreciate your inputs!

Hello,I am trying to execute this assembly at load time for this specific dashboard.The rule executes as expected, but I cannot seem to get the parameter to function properly. Here is how it is returning in the log:It's as if it is not reading it as a parameter at all. Any suggestions? 

Our beginning balance formula is as follows: 'Check to see if we are in period 1If api.Time.IsFirstPeriodInYear() Then      ......... Else     ............... This formula worked perfectly rolling from 2023 into 2024, but now in 2025 we are having issues. EX: In Feb 2025, the beginning balance is reverting back to Dec 24 instead of Jan 25. Any insight into where I might start in figuring out this error? I tried looking at our business rules for api.time and didn't see anything that stood out.  Thanks!  

Hello Experts, I am wondering if any one has worked on requirement where 2 entities need to be translated at 2 different rates for Budget scenario. I know how we can translate entire scenario by historical rate. I am not sure having entity filters will work in this case or I should be looking at different approach?Thanks,MP

Hello,Something a little different here. Below is an OS Dashboard. The client is leveraging SmartLinks to navigate specified users here (via Email). Upon selecting the link, the user is navigated here on the browser.The first red box indicates the Project to select. SmartLinks allows this to be prepopulated so the dashboard is defaulted with the correct information upon arrival.Everything is working as expected besides the pesky SQL table editor component. Web View:It is important to note that the SQL Table Editor component is populated via Dashboard Extender rule, which is executed when the Project is selected. In this case, the project is already selected, but I cant seem to get the extender rule to execute upon arrival to the dashboard. Any ideas? I want to believe this is less with the new SmartLinks feature and more with standard OS logic.

Hi everyoneWe want to do a sign flip on an account to be applicable from a certain period. The sign flip must therefore not have an affect on historic periods.

Hi, Does anyone have an example where multiple dbwheres on the same column are executed?The syntax seems to support AND/OR, but I can't seem to get it working.  I have the following dbWheres (without the AND/OR part): Dim dbWhereEntity As New DbWhere("Entity", dboperator.In, entityFilter) Dim dbWhereResignationDate As New DbWhere("TermDate", dboperator.IsGreaterThan, dateEndOfMonth) Dim dbWhereResignationDate2 As New DbWhere("TermDate", dboperator.IsEqualTo, Nothing) Individually, the ResignationDate dbwheres seem to work. The SQL statement needs to look something like this: SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE (TermDate > @DateEndOfMonth OR TermDate IS NULL) AND Entity = 'MyEntity'; (I know I could build a SQL statement and execute that as a work-around, but I'm just curious how this works) Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Does someone knows the syntax to call a memberlist that is written in a Finance MemberList service accessed via a service factory? I've tried many forms but cannot get to my code. Thanks

Hello, We experience performance problems when we try to export Onestream data for insertion into a third-party system.For 100 entities and 12 months, processing takes 20 hours and is often killed by the system.Apparently, it's the dynamic accounts that take up a lot of time during extraction.Do you have the same problem and what are the solutions to optimize the export?Thanks

Hi Everyone,Has anyone worked on establishing an SFTP connection in extensibility rules using a PPK file? I am currently facing an issue where, despite setting the SshPrivateKeyPath property in the session options, I receive the error: "No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)."Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated.Thank you,Mithun

Hi, I've been looking into the audit trails for O#Forms and O#Import data. The audit trail for O#Forms data seems to be in good shape, with changes tracked in tables like DataEntryAuditCell and DataEntryAuditSource.For O#Import data, I've found some audit information in the staging area tables, such as StageArchivesInformation and vStageSummaryTargetData. However, this doesn't cover everything - for example, it doesn't account for data that's been imported but not yet loaded into the cube, or data imported using a business rule.Is there a way to get a more complete audit trail for O#Import data, that focus on the Cube data rather than Stage data?

Does anyone know if you can create an Excel spreadsheet from Business Rules? I do not mean a csv file - I need to create multiple sheets. The OpenXMLBuilder object doesn't seem to have anything with writing files. I don't want to use a third-party object as that would require an installation or download. Thanks for any suggestions.

Do we have any way of restricting the Unbalanced Journals in OneStream? I read about the Journal Event Handler but don't see that BR in my application. 

I want to load OneStream application data to external database. And there is an existing connection to the target external database. But it gives me below error, could you please help? No idea what is wrong. BTW, "FDH_DEV" is SIC external database connection.   'Build a data table with one test line Dim TestTbl As New DataTable TestTbl.Columns.Add("Tmt", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("SEnt", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("TEnt", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("SAct", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("SActD", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("TAct", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("TActD", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("SFlw", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("TFlw", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("SIc", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.Add("TIc", Type.GetType("System.String")) TestTbl.Columns.

I am writing a simple api.data.calculate code in C#. Somehow it is not able to recognize Durable data "true" but it does work vb.    

Hi,I need to use inside my Table View service some parameters that are bound to combo boxes in order to write a query, and execute it when the "SaveTableView" function is called. Unlike the "GetTableView" function, SaveTableView's signature doesn't provide a parameter that contains all substitution variables (Dictionary<string, string> customSubstVars for GetTableView)I also tried setting the customSubstVars dictionary into the BRGlobals from the GetTableView function, but once you try getting the dictionary from the globals, it returns null.Is there no way of getting this customSubstVars dictionary to use it inside SaveTableView?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to get an extracted list of all artifacts within an environment by artifact types such as business rules, transformation rules, cube view names. I am only interested in getting the names/metadata of each artifact and not the actual data from the artifact. I would like to put these in an excel workbook.  Thanks! Manuel

Hi OS Community,Hope you are doing well!Out of curiosity, I wanted to check which approach is more efficient for clearing data: using api.data.clearcalculateddata or clearing combinations using databuffer?Few examples would be really helpful.Thank you!

am trying to create a confirmation rule, to balance the balance, however when compiling the rule I get an error, in another version the rule was broken and no error is shown, any recommendations?

Hello OS CommunityI am trying to compile a BR associated with a transformation rule, but it shows me the following error:Do you know how to resolve this issue?

I have a dashboard where I created Parameter1 using bound list which is referenced in a combo box. A button then passes the data to the business rule. The issue I am having is that it only recognizes the first selected member and ignores all other selected members. How do you pass a multiselect list from combo box in Dashboard in order to loop through the list?

Hi community, For one of our clients we are looking for the following. - We create 52 weekly scenario with each their own start and end period setting in the workflow start time and workflow end time. For example we have the scenario CFF_2022W01 which has a workflow start time as 2022W1 and a workflow end time as 2022 W39. For example the scenario CFF_2022W02 which has a workflow start time as 2022W2 and a workflow end time as 2022 W39 etc.  How can we get a list of members of the range within the start and end time in the scenario. So for example based on the CFF_2022W01 scenario it should return in the list 2022W1, 2022W2 up until 2022W39. For CFF_2022W02 it should return in a list 2022W2, 2022W3 up until 2022W39.There is also the example when the periods run across years. So for example the scenario CFF_2022W27 has a workflow start time of 2022W27 and end time of 2023W13. The list should then return 2022W27, 2022W28 up until 2022W52 plus also 2023W1 up
