Rules

We are trying to load txt file to custom table using LoadCustomTableUsingDelimitedFile but when it runs we receive a "Data load file is invalid or missing" error. The file is manually selected from a folder.  The file is correct, the number of fields in the file and in the table match, the values and the field type match and the field separator is correct. We are uploading the file from a Dashboard button component which calls a Dashboard extender BR. This is the BR code:   Dim filePath As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("FilePath") Dim tableName As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("TableName") Dim loadResults As TableRangeContent Dim fieldTokens As New List(Of String) fieldtokens.add("field1") fieldtokens.add("field2") ... fieldtokens.add("fieldn") loadResults = BRApi.Utilities.LoadCustomTableUsingDelimitedFile(si, _ SourceDataOriginTypes.FromFileUpload, filepath, Nothing, ";", _ "Application", tableName, "Replace", fieldtokens, False)

Is there a way to get the list of components on the calling dashboard on load? Trying to use:args.ComponentInfo.Component.Name results in nothing, even though I have multiple components on my dashboard. I want to get a list of all components, particularly a label or 2, and based upon user settings/access/Text fields, set labels

Dear Community, There is a possiblity to retrieve parameters currently available in a dashboard using for instance :      Dim str_myParam As String = args.SelectionChangedTaskInfo.CustomSubstVars.XFGetValue("MyParameter")     However, this means that we need to know the names of the CustomSubstVars currently in the dashboard (in that case, I need to know that the parameter MyParameter is indeed available in the dashboard). In my use case the user can open several cube view hence the parameters will change from one Cube View to another.  Is there a way to list all current CustomSubstVars available in the dashboard ?    Regards,

I have created a Dashboard Dara Set BR and I am attached in the data adapter. When I am trying to execute the rule am getting 0 data. See below the entity is always passing as None but when I add a log message in the code the variable is passing based on the selection and printing the correct entity. in My CV i also have the FDXentity parameter. Any Idea why it is happening ? Original Query  {FDX_CUbeView}{ExtractCubeViewTimePivot}{cvNameToExtract=Data,entityDimName=E#|!FDXEntity!|} Substituted Query  {FDX_CUbeView}{ExtractCubeViewTimePivot}{cvNameToExtract=Data,entityDimName=E#None}   Thanks Krishna

Hello, We need to clear data on the specific intersections of Account, Entity, UD2, UD3, and UD5 members (all members from the remaining dimensions). The data is copied from the Actual to the Forecast scenario. So, I tried to use clearcalculateddata API in the member formula but it is clearing data on that account for all members of UD dimensions. Can you please help with the simplest way to clear the data on a specific intersection?   Ex. We need to clear data for the below intersection. The below line is clearing the data for A#7041 irrespective of other defined UD members. api.Data.ClearCalculatedData(True,True,True,True,"A#7041:O#Import:F#Base:U2#13056:U3#327:U5#01973")  

Hi,   I have an existing extensibility rule which copy some data from a source scenario/period to a target scenario/period.   This is the "core" of the code Dim listDriversDataCellExFilterdForDriversTarget As New List(Of DatacellEx) For Each itemDataCellEx As DataCellEx In listDriversDataCellExFilterdForDrivers   itemDataCellEx.DataCell.DataCellPk.TimeId = TimeTargetId   itemDataCellEx.DataCell.DataCellPk.ScenarioId = ScenarioTargetId   listDriversDataCellExFilterdForDriversTarget.Add(itemDataCellEx)Next itemDataCellEx   Now, I was trying to update this to only copy data where UD3=None, but I am not sure on how to do that. I can see datacells have a function called GetUD3Name, but the function requires a FinanceRulesApi parameter.   Would using the GetUD3Name function work for my scope and what would be an example of valid FinanceRulesApi parameter?   Thank you

How do I call a function that exist in a dashboard extender business rule for another dashboard extender business rule and how do I pass the all the required arguments?

I was looking for a  way to bind a .net list object to a gridview instead of using DataAdapters. Any examples in this direction are appreciated.

How does one write a calculation where the result needs to land at an intersection that includes C#Elimination. Ideally, I'd want to have a function such as:     Public Sub Book(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal api As FinanceRulesApi, ByVal sourceCell As dataBufferCell, ByVal target As String, ByVal factor As Decimal)     And then call it as     Book(si,api,sourceCell,"U4#SOMECALC:C#Elimination",-0.3563523553)    

I want to run a simple calculation setting one account equal to another.  Account A = Account B.  Account A, the account receiving the data in the calculation, is set to at the member level to YTD for No Data Zero View for NonAdjustments.  The account with the data is set to Periodic. The problem is when Account B has data for some months and then has a calculated 0 in later months.  The Account A with the YTD setting just replicates the last period's data in the months with 0 in Account B which causes the two accounts not to be equal.   I am using the following calculation. api.Data.Calculate("A#AccountA = A#AccountB" , True) How is this normally managed?

Hello, we renamed some companies adding a space and some text. For example company "64" was renamed in "64 TA" After renaming we started to have issues in the rules like if Onestream does not recognize the space. This is  a sample error message we receive. Summary: Unable to execute Business Rule 'WES_Rules'. Invalid script 'A#4028_02:O#Elimination:F#None:I#64 TA:U1#None:U2#None:U3#IC_Details:U4#INTERCOMPANY:U5#None:U6#None:U7#None:U8#None' near '64'.   Is there some hidden contraint in Onestream that prevents clients to create element with spaces? By the way, do you know if there is any workaround to overcome this issue in the rules? because I belive our custmer will not accept to go back to the simple company code.   Thanks in advance Marcello    

I want to retrieve data from a .csv file from Filestore\Everyone folder and later convert the data in to a a dataTable in an extensibility rule. Does any one has a sample BR.    

Hi, Is there a way where users can input From and To dates time members in a cube view? Currently, I am using a parameter in the time member field in POV section of cube view. I have a business rule with FROM and TO dates (2022M1 to 2022M4) and then extract all the periods within (2021 M1 M2 M3 and M4) that time frame in a dt.  And now, I want to incorporate this function in the cube view. feel free to drop your inputs.

  In an earlier post a user named Sam helped me find a way to find the value of a variable in a Custom Calculate job using the Parameter field.  Now, how can we access the value of the parameter in a regular Calculate job which does not have the Parameter field?   The variable is |CVYear|.  How can we access it directly in a BR (standard Calculate)?   Thanks, Chris  

Can any one provide me with a rule snippet for updating Entity Percent Ownership. I have tried a few things using the SaveRelationshipInfo but it is not working.

Good Evening, It should be something simple but apparently I am missing something. I am trying to get the Value for the Text1 field for an Account Dimension member using a Business Rule. The Text1 value vary by scenario. I trying to use ".Options()" but can get it to work. Is this the best alternative? Would you know of other alternatives? Is there a BRApi function which already does this? Thank you for the help,  

Hello, good evening, I am trying to build a BRApi function to get the content of the UD6 constraint from an Account dimension member and so far I couldn't find a function that returns the information. Does anybody knows if it is possible to build a BRApi function like that or have done that in the past? Thank you for the help!!!!

Looking for a solution. Update description of a member in an Extender rule for an already existing/new member. If Possible, not mandatory but can we add a descriptions/alias for various language on a new/existing member?
