Rules

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, I am currently using FDXExecuteCubeView in order to get only data coming from a cube view that the user is selecting into a business rule data table. However, FDXExecuteCubeView need to specify the entity & scenario member filters which is a pain when these are parametric. --> So I was wondering if there are other way to get the data coming only from a cube view ? I was thinking of a data adapter component but it seems that the cube view passed in those can't be parametric (ie. the name of the cube view can't be a parameter). What are the other, possible better way, to get only the data coming from a cube view ?   Regards,

Hi, we have dashboard with multiple driver tabs.  if data is entered in one tab but not saved prior to switching to another tab that data is lost.  Is there a BR to check for unsaved data and prompt the user to save? thanks, Greg

Hello,  I am looking to  write a confirmation rule which pulls a value for a flow member across each account. An example would be we have a calculated opening balance and a loaded opening balance. There is a flow members which calculates the variance between the loaded and the calculated beginning balance.  If the absolute value within the validation flow member <> 0 I want the rule to return which accounts are causing the outage within the info1.  I'm looking forward to seeing if if anyone else has come across something like this. Cheers!  

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    

If I like to migrate a HFM rules file, is there an equivalent to the HS.con function?

I am getting an error while trying to access the file from the BR . The process cannot access the file '\\XXXXXX.file.core.windows.net\onestreamshareprd1\FileShare\Applications\XXXXXXX\Groups\Everyone\XXXXXX\File_XXXXX.zip' because it is being used by another process.

Hello, I have a requirement where I'll have to read the current month in XFBR rule and return a string based on a few conditions. The time filter in the columns is set to |WFYear|.Base. I've tried a few different variables, but they're all only passing on the year. When I divide the columns up into specific months, I get the required results, but I'm searching for a method that I can use when that's not the case. Is there something similar to api.pov.time.name that I can use in XFBR, or is there any other approach that I'll be able to use? Thank you, Manasa

Hi all, I'm receiving the error in the subject when executing a MemberList. This is the ML code, it should retrieve base member of "TF" in the flows dimension with SwitchType attribute set to True. Dim objMemberListHeader As New MemberListHeader(args.MemberListArgs.MemberListName)Dim objFlowList As List(Of member) = api.Members.GetBaseMembers(api.Pov.FlowDim.DimPk,api.Members.GetMemberId(api.Pov.Flow.DimTypeID,"TF"))Dim FlowMemberID As IntegerFor Each FlowMember In objFlowList   FlowMemberID = api.Members.GetMemberId(api.Pov.Flow.DimTypeId,flowmember.Name)   If api.Flow.SwitchType(FlowMemberID) Then objFlowList.Add(flowmember) NextDim objMemberList As New MemberList(objMemberListHeader, objFlowList)Return objMemberList Any advice, really appreciated Thanks and regards Massimo

Hi, Can anyone help me how I can use this Selection Change server task I know how to run a DM Sequence from button but if I can directly run a custom calculate without a sequence that will be great. I tried these syntaxes, but it is not working.   Thanks  Omkareshwar    

Hi Everyone, In building out our financial reporting, I was seeking to get some opinions on best practice related to adjustments for financial statements when scaled and rounded to millions. We are coming from doing our consolidations and external reporting in Excel and reconciling to the external financials is always a challenge when pulling numbers out of our prior tool (TM1) as the quarterly adjustments never then add up to the full year adjustment.   We've been told that there are OneStream implementations where they have rounding done through business rules and account text fields. But have also been told that really the best practice is just to do rounding numbers in our filing tool, versus in OneStream.    As users and technical experts, what are the opinions on what the best practice really is for this stuff? Thanks! 

Hi  I am trying to delete files saved in public folder via business rule. Below BusinessRule.Extender works fine to delete the files from share folder.

Hi    I want to read a text value from dashboard in finance business rule. I tried attaching a parameter to text box component and then read that parameter in the code but that is not working.   Thanks, Omkareshwar    

I am modifying a business rule that uses the entity name to search a similarly named (Entity_Acct_Description) table and return a value.  I want to verify that the table exists before attempting the TransformText to prevent errors in the case of new entities or name changes.  Is there a way to verify the named object exists before executing the code?   ElseDim LookupTable As String = TEntity & "_Acct_Description" ''''IF Lookuptable exists do this''''SAccountDesc = BRApi.Utilities.TransformText(si, SAccount, LookupTable, True)

Hi, Is there an easy way to get MemberScript from the DataCellPk? I can see a method called 'GetMemberScript' (what a surprise) on DataCellPk object, but it doesn't work (or I cannot figure out how it works) in Extensibility Rule. The goal is to take the details of one DataCell, replace one of the members and process (validate) such created reference to another DataCell. Any tips? Best, Karol

Hi, I'm currently using a FDX query to create an automated Journal. Works basically fine but when the FDX query is completely empty it throws an exception error message. Not a very big deal but the users experience this as a failure of the system. Does someone know a way to avoid this throw or to customize the exception error message in case of an empty datatable? FYI a check on the datatable (f (Not dt Is Nothing) And (dt.Rows.count > 0) Then) still gives the throw.   Thanks!

I have two questions: ud3 text2 has text which is the entity on where we are going to seed to..  1) I want a memberlist where Text2 is not blank or has no data. I am wondering if Text2 <> '' is the correct way to go? 2) What is the syntax of brapi or api.logmessage to see what is in the memberlist?   'Dim memberFilter_UD3 As String = "Cb#CONCUBE:U3#PCHEAD.Descendants.Where(Text2 DoesNotContain '')" Dim memberFilter_UD3 As String = "Cb#CONCUBE:U3#PCHEAD.Descendants.Where(Text2 <> '')"Dim UD3List As List(Of Memberinfo) = api.Members.GetMembersUsingFilter(api.Pov.UD3Dim.DimPk,memberFilter_UD3)   'api.logmessage("UD3List", String.Join(vbnewline, memberFilter_UD3.Select(Function(x) x.GetType.FullName))) BRAPI.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"1_Target_ " & UD3List)   For each UD3 as Memberinfo in UD3List etc. etc. BRAPI.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,"Test " & UD3.NameAndDescription)' &" " & UD3.Properties.GetUDProperties.Text2.GetValue())

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)
