Application Build

Does anyone have information on how to get Data Cell Access (Slice) Security (henceforth DACS) to work when applying it to multiple UD dimensions?  The app has the entity and scenario security set.  Those are working fine.  If I put only one UD in the DACS, that also works fine.  The problem comes in when subsequent UD dimensions are added to the DACS.  It seems OneStream ignores the DACS and goes back to entity and scenario security. To add a bit more information, I have tried it multiple ways, with the multiple UDs in the same or different rows in the DACS setup.  It doesn't matter. Thank you.

Hello, We have a client who has requested the ability to use the alternate translation currency property on specific parent entities but then also to be able to pull that alternate currency in reports without changing the currency in the POV. For instance, the parent entity's currency is USD and it will be setup with EUR as an alternate translation currency in the equity pickup property section. The children of that parent entity are all EUR currency entities. In their reporting they would like to be able to show parent entity and children at the EUR without changing the Cons POV. The reporting could have multiple instances of this setup with different entities and currencies so setting the Cons to EUR wouldn't be an optimal solution. Ideally, they would like to set the consolidation to local for the whole report. We have alternate hierarchies setup but they would like to only worry about one member name for the parent and one hierarchy. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to achie

 

Now I have it in two places on the tree.  It includes children with data.  I need to delete the one I just created, including all of the children, but I'm getting an error that says it can't be deleted with data. How can I go about fixing this?  

  Given a situation, determine the correct properties for the Cube. Certification Exam.  Workflow The most common setting Is Top Level Cube for Workflow (Main Cube) = True Project requirements dictate Suffixes for varying Workflow by Scenario Type Assigning Suffix by Scenario Type allows the same Entity to be assigned to different Workflows in different Workflow Cube Root by Scenario Type The best practice is to configure a suffix early on for common Scenario Types regardless of whether they get used. NOTE: These settings cannot be updated once data is loaded to a specific Scenario Type.  Leaving blank is defining the suffix as well. Calculation Consolidation and Translation Algorithm Type Most common setting = Standard Settings based on design decisions on how consolidation and translation to be customized. Recommendation – Only change from Standard to Custom on sporadic cases. Elimination and Translation logic should be done either on the Member using O#Elimination

Hi, since I am used to set many of the programs I use during my working day to dark mode, I was wondering if it is possible to turn the dark mode on for OneStream, and if that's not possible, is it something OneStream plans to introduce in future? Thank you

I am wondering if anyone has changed the precision of the FxRate?  It shouldn't be to hard.  What I am wondering is if changing it would cause other issues ?  

Hi Community, We are trying to set up Rest API call to execute Data Management (OneStream v8.1) call from external system (e.g. Postman) I followed the document for REST_API_Implementation_Guide.pdf and I am not able to configure the Bearer Token (we are using Okta as Single Sign-on).    This is not working,  I am wondering if something need to be done on the Okta beside the steps in the document;  

With v7.4, it's now possible to create separate Maintenance Units, to isolate a "solution". But with that also the new "Dashboard Type" have arrived, including "Custom Control", but also a new Navigation Action on a button, called: "Forward Custom Control Action to Parent Event Listener" Anyone have experience in how this works, or where I can find more documentation or examples of the functionality

Hi All, I have a bit of an extreme question here.  Is there any limit, whether system or logically, that there are too many cubes in an application?  My example (which I have simplified here for illustrative purposes) relates to UD1 for Cost Centers where we have 150 entities all having unique and different cost centers.  Since they each have 20 unique Cost Centers, that's potentially 3,000 Cost Centers in one dimension which feels big and very sparse.  Thinking through options for how to approach, one option we are weighing is to add a separate cube for each entity and assign a separate UD1 dimension to each cube / entity so they would only have 20 Cost Centers to contend with.  As it rolls up the entity structure, it would consolidate to a Summary cube that has one member called 'Total Cost Center' thereby shrinking the data unit in the top cube. Has anyone dealt with these high numbers of cubes before?  My gut tells me be that this could be troublesome

Is there a way to configure the system so that it will check if a consolidation is already running before allowing another user to start a consolidation?  If so, how do we configure the system to do this?

Hello good afternoon, I need to extract a specific hierarchy without extracting all the hierarchies we have in the account dimension, as you can see in the next screenshot, I just need TP9E in order to extract and import into a different app: But when clicking into the application load/extract (metadata) I see only options to extract the hole dimension: Is this possible? Many thanks in advance.  

Hi all, I currently have a dashboard that shows several cube views in it. I'm wondering, is it possible to extract through parameters the POV dimensions of the cell that the user selects, in order to use them for other processes? (my goal would be to allow the user to select a cell, click a button and visualize the drill down for that cell) Thank you in advance for any help!

I would like you to help me with this question, because I want to know how I can add a security group to a person (the section that appears in the image) and how I can remove that group in a BR.    

Having difficulty finding the source of this error. Has anyone come across this?  

Good day  I was wondering if there was a way to find out which child members of UD4 that has text 8 text in there without going through each member. Once we find that out then is there a way to see where the text 8 is being used in the application   Regards

Does anyone know if it is possible to format the XML files that are created by the application extract. In particular I want to format the Metadata extract so that there is a single line for the member definition. I want to run a compare process to check what differences there are between 2 files. I want the member name included in the difference line rather than (for example) the currency has changed without any indication of the member. So this <member name...><properties><property name...> instead of: <member name...> <properties> <property name...> Thanks

Re-posting. I hope this time it is in right community.------Hi All,We are a large OneStream shop with 700+ users.  The system is in use for last couple of years.Currently our system is hosted in our own Azure environment and managed by our own infra team.We are currently reviewing to see whether we should continue with the same or should we go for OneStream Cloud Managed Service?I would love to hear from fellow OneStreamers following:1) Are you currently using OneStream cloud or hosting it on your Azure / Data center?2) Ours is a very complicated system with multiple group regulatory reporting as well as some LBU planning & budgeting apps on the same environment.   While speaking with a colleague, he told me that from his past experience, the system performance wasn't as great on the Cloud compared to customer managed environment.  Is this the experience of all OneStream customers out there?3) How's the support experience with OneStream Managed support?4) Did yo

I need to update the properties (Constraints/Texts) of 20.000 UD members based on transformation rules.  The script runs in 10 seconds, but once I add the 'SaveMemberInfo' method it surpasses 2h ... I tried both 'MemberInfo' & 'WritableMemberNoCache' with no performance enhancement Dim ListofU1Stores As List(Of MemberInfo) = BRApi.Finance.Metadata.GetMembersUsingFilter(si, dimensionName, myStoreFilter, True) For Each oStore In ListofU1Stores 'MemberInfo ''Dim myStore As MemberInfo = BRApi.Finance.Metadata.GetMember(si, DimType.UD1.Id, oStore.Member.MemberId, True) ''Dim StoreUDVMInfo As UDVMProperties = myStore.GetUDProperties() 'WritableMember Dim objWritableMember As WritableMember = BRApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(si, DimType.UD1.Id, oStore.Member.Name) Dim objVaryingMemberProperties As VaryingMemberProperties = BRApi.Finance.Members.ReadMemberPropertiesNoCache(si, DimType.UD1.Id, oStore.Member.Name) Di

Is there any way to export a list of orphaned entity members?  We pull in hierarchy information from SAP and recently over 1000 entity members were blocked in SAP.  This resulted in them going into orphan status in our OneStream instance when we updated our metadata.  The issue is that some of these orphans had data and that is causing reconciliation issues.  If I could export a list of the orphans, I could match them against all of the SAP entities that have data to determine which orphans needed to be restored.  Thanks!

Update: Found out the user ID is actually supposed to be a Guid object and not a string.    I have a data table which contains a list of UserId's. Currently, I need to convert those UserId's into usernames. I have been attempting to use the variations of the '.GetUser' api. With this test, I have been unable to actually fill my variable with user info for analysis. Is there any known workarounds for this situation? I confirmed that .GetUser works with the username, just not with the UserID.  Below is an example of my scripting, the string is of the userID I obtained by testing on a username.   

Dear Community, Whenever we use the drill down in OneStream, there is a call called "Calculation Script" at the very end, which in my case is never populated. How is it used ? Are there any way to access it / populate this cell ? Regards,

When adding a new member to my dimension I received the following error message when I tried to save it.  "Error saving member.  "B4632' already exists.   I did a search on that dimension and hierarchy and got the result "no items were found".   How can I determine why it will not let me save this member?  How can I find it?

Hi there! I am trying to use Postman to run a DM job sequence. I test the DM job locally and it works fine with no parameter.I am using Azure SSO to log on the server.I can retrieve a token from microsoft for my tenant ID using : https://login.microsoftonline.com/bec456-my-t3n4nt-id-e2aba/oauth2/v2.0/token (In green in the printscreen) On my second RestApi call, I use the token I retrieved and I drop the token under Authorization > Bearer Token in Postman.Because I need to run a sequence the URL is : https://aiqos.io:50001/onestreamapi/api/DataManagement/ExecuteSequence?api-version=5.2.0 and the body is : { "BaseWebServerUrl": "https://aiqos.io:50001/onestreamweb", "ApplicationName": "GolfStreamV65", "SequenceName": "RestApi", "CustomSubstVarsAsCommaSeparatedPairs": "" } I also created an admin user in OneStream that matches the Application (client) ID found in Azure. (In red in the printscreen)The on the back end in the server config, I added the OS Werb Api Cli

Hi OS Community,  Was wondering if anyone has visibility into or can point me in the direction to update the Environment Color in an application?   I know it can be done, thinking it might be the Config Utility or SNOW request, just having trouble finding documentation on the process to update.  The guide says all you need is admin access:  But I'm finding that not to be the case in multiple environments Any help would be greatly appreciated!
