Errors creating New Task in Data Import Schedule Manager

Question

I am getting several errors when setting up a New Task in the Data Import Schedule Manager. We are on OS version 9.01.17403, and I have installed the latest version of DSM, which is 8.4.0_SV100. I suspect this may be a version compatibility issue, so I am curious if anyone has been able to get this solution to work in a 9.01 application. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the solution, which didn’t resolve the issues.

Below are the two errors I am seeing:

When choosing Global Scenario from the Scenario(s) drop down list, I get an immediate error “Error processing member. The item was not found. Member, 11111111.” The details state: Unable to execute Business Rule ‘DSM_Paramhelper’ where it appears to be trying to call the Global Scenario by OneStream.Client.Api.DashboardsAjaxServiceReference.DashboardsAjaxServiceClient.GetParameterDisplayInfosUsingDashboardNameCompressed(SessionInfo si, LoadDashboardInfo loadDashboardInfo, Boolean isForDashboardUIWithInteractiveComponents, Dictionary`2 custSubstVarsAlreadyResolved).
If I pick a specific Scenario, I am getting a different error. It allows me to pick the Scenario and Time, but when save the Task, I get “The input string ‘’ was not in a correct format.”. The error details show it is an issue with the same Business Rule ‘DSM_SolutionHelper’ where Conversion from string “” to type ‘Double’ is not valid. The input string ‘’ was not in a correct format. OneStream.Client.Api.DashboardsAjaxServiceReference.DashboardsAjaxServiceClient.StartExecuteSelectionChangedServerTaskCompressed(SessionInfo si, Boolean isSystemLevel, Guid primaryDashboardID, Guid embeddedDashboardID, Guid componentID, PageInstanceInfo pageInstanceInfo, XFSelectionChangedServerTaskInfo serverTaskInfo)

Any advice on how to correct these issues would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, for this 'The input string ‘’ was not in a correct format.' error inside of DSM, this can be fixed by going into the DSM_SolutionHelper business rule, searching for 'MonthsOptions_DSMT', and changing the uppercase 'M' to a lowercase 'm'. Cycle through them to make sure they are all now read 'monthsOptions_DSMT', save, and re-compile. It is a parameter that somehow changed.

Hi,I just came across this same issue, and found that changing ‘MonthsOptions_DSMT’ was not the full extent of the solution needed. You need to change the following variables within DSM_SolutionHelper in order for the selections to save:‘MonthsOptions_DSMT’ →‘monthsOptions_DSMT’‘MonthDays_DSMT’ →‘monthDays_DSMT’‘WeekDays_DSMT’ →‘weekDays_DSMT’If you are wondering what these variables are matching up to, it is the bound parameters in the radiobutton/combo boxes for the dashboard. This dashboard is located in Workspaces\Default\Maintenance Units\Data Import Schedule Manager (DSM). The specific radiobutton/combo boxes are:rbg_MonthOptions_DSMTcbx_SelectMonthDays_DSMTcbx_SelectWeekDays_DSMTHope this helps!
