Originally posted by Francisco AmoresHi,   We have Rule1 and Rule2 in a transformation table. rule 1 executes first and we have assigned a complex expression with a conditional rule. We want onestream to apply rule2 if that condition is not met. However, it seems that you always must return something.   How do we deal with this?   Thanks

Hi there. We are busy with the design of a management reporting and Statutory consol application. Their current year end is June but will probably move to a December YE from end of 2024. As the Time Profile is linked to a Cube the easiest way will be to create a new cube for the new YE data. As the proposed structure of the Management reporting solution will contain many cubes this may be proof to be problematic. Does anyone have a case study where this was done or does anyone know what is best practice in this regard?

Does anyone know how to translate the value in m1status .. m12status in table DataRecordxxxx. Is there a second table I can referece? 

  At the moment the Aggregated member uses the IsConsolidated property to aggregate or not. Do I have any option if I wanted to aggregate a member but not consolidate it? With the introduction of the new member Aggregated, is there going to be a IsAggregated property created or will it always work with the IsConsolidated property?   Thanks

Hello, The design doc says that "Any cell in any grid can contain a data attachment. To attach a file, right click on any cell in a data grid and select Data Attachment for Selected Cell". However in my cube view when I'm following that and when I'm on total year for my budget scenario and total accounts, I get the following error message (it works to add a text for each of the single month for same intersection) Would you know if I am missing anything in the set up of my cube view or about limitations in regards of data attachment ? Thank you Matthieu

Hello! Can someone point me in the direction of the definitions for the status numbers on the Data Records table? I also submitted the question to OS support because I can't find the info anywhere. Here's where I mean:  Thanks!

Hello, I want to schedule daily and weekly backups/restores for the OS application. This backup would be used to restore the whole application if something had to happen. There's an extensibility rule that can be scheduled to extract all the application artefacts. The rule has some limitations as it extracts artefacts but not the data.   Is there a way to create daily backup of the whole application including the data ?

Hello Team, Could you please share if there is document for analysis all the logs. Regards, Praveen

I'm looking for an option to mass delete members marked as ORPHANS in a dimension, I tried few options but if there is any data in the application for any of these ORPHAN members the delete fails Wanted to know if there is a work around or another way to achieve this & also to know if we can delete member without clearing the data

Hi everyone!I am Angel and I am new to OneStream implementation and currently facing an issue. I am trying to update the Cube Name in my Workflow Profile, but it returned an error message.This workflow profile is under Cube A which has been set as the 'Top-Level Cube for Workflow'. Under Cube A, we have several Sub-Cubes (Cube A1, A2, etc.) which have been set in the Cube References. I am trying to update the 'Cube Name' in my Workflow Profile from 'Cube A' to 'Cube A1' because we would like to load the data into that sub-cube (Cube A1), but it gave me the error message below (screenshots below). Could you please tell what the error message is about and what I can do/check to fix it? Any answer would be so much appreciated, thank you!!  Cheers,Angel

Hello All,  I need some Quick help . is it possible to create a Child under a Base member that has a value. for example in my UD2 dimension i have Book A1 it is the Base member and it has data in it. If i try to create a Child under this A1 , Child A1_C. i am losing view of the Data . Is it a Cube View issue i need to resolve . or its not possible to create a child under a base member that already has values in it ? 

For Entity transformation rule, we want to build logic so that Source entity looks at its parent entity in one of our entity hierarchy in OS dimension, read and then map to the parent entity text8 assignment, then map to that entity the text8 assignment. How can we setup logic for that?

Hi there, I wonder if anybody knows how to access dashboard combo box selection from SaveDataEventHandler? I was able - through BRApi - to get the parameter assigned to the combo box (with the entire member list in it), but not the actual selection. I think this is possible from Dashboard Extender BR, but not Extensibility. I would appreciate any tips & advises. Best,Karol

Looking to start using the View txt fields (Annotation, Assumptions…) and understand that there is no natural way to have that information aggregated/consolidated up. I am told that a BR is needed to do this. Just checking to see if this is correct and if anybody has had success in this getting it to work. Ideal use would be for our regional leaders to be able to see summary comments on specific line items that we report on.

Hello, Do you know if there is a way to display in a dashboard the users / entities access by user / the type of access (read, write...)  Thanks, Regards, Harry

Hi I'm trying to get the current pov - cube and entity - within a member list (i'm using for selection as drop-down). Unfortunately the api.pov.entity.name is in this case not returning the wf pov, but the cube pov. The args.SubstVarSourceInfo.WFCubeRoot doesn't work as well. Any ideas? Thanks Jana

We have several equity accounts with "USDOverride" entered for Text 1 in the "Vary by Scenario Type And Time" section of the member properties. Those accounts are not translating from local currency to USD.  Any ideas why that would be? Thanks!

Hi, I have a process that would be run at the month end to lock the workflow. Once the workflow is locked, you need to refresh the application to see the lock icon on the period in the workflow. The icon doesn't change until you hit the refresh button. Is there a utility in the business rule to refresh the application (I would need to include this utility in the business rule) ? Ragav.

Good EveningWe are working on an OneStream implementation and one of our sources of data is OpenAir. This solution is cloud-based. We are trying to extract data via a ODATA call.Does anybody have any code examples on how to use ODATA as a data source?Thanks in advance.Marco A. Rossodivita

Hi All,   I was reviewing the following link below regarding strategies to reconcile historical data.  Strategies for Data Reconciliation - OneStream Community (onestreamsoftware.com) I noticed the following statement "You can turn-on’ translation for periods when the translation is what you will use going forward. It is possible in OneStream to load parent currency. By simply using the Flow dimension, you can see how simple it would be to handle historical currency issues."   Can someone please point me in the right direction in terms of documentation on how this is done / the details. Ideally from either the OneStream handbook, design and reference guide, or OneStream academy.   Cheers!  

Is there a way to enable Account descriptions in other languages like Dutch?

Hi everyone, I am trying to add records to a table via an Excel Table View. Using the example in the Table Views documentation, I am able to update existing records; however, any new records added are cleared once I submit the sheet. Is there additional code I can add to allow the Table View to write new records to the table? Thanks! Molly

I need to move data between two mutually exclusive cubes. Cube1 (FinPlan) U3 dimension base level is ProductType, Cube2(SalesFcst) UD3 base level is SKU which rollup up to ProductType. SKU also has a Text6 field containing its ProductType Code.   I also have separate Account dimensions: Cube1 uses FinAccounts for Forecasting, while Cube2 uses the SalesFcstAccts dimension   To move the data from Cube2 to Cube1, I tried using a Business Rule using the api.Data.ConvertDataBufferExtendedMembers function Cube is an option:    Dim summarySalesFcstData As DataBuffer = api.Data.ConvertDataBufferExtendedMembers("SalesFcst", "Fcast1", dbSalesFcstData) However, it didn’t replace the SKU with its ProductType. Does anyone know is this function will work between mutually exclusive cubes with different account dimensions. The second approach I would like to try is to extract the data from Cube2 including the SKU Text6 value of ProductType, then I

Hi !I'm interested to get data from the AuditFXRate table, however this table is not giving the Currency names, but only its ID.The problem is that, the Currency names are nowhere to be find in the datatable of the application ( it is not in the "Member", "MemberProperty" or "MemberDescription" table). The only plase I can get a reference of these currency is in the "AppProperty" table, where all currency are stored in one row.Needless to say, the table "FxRate" is not showing the Currency Name as well 🙂 --> Where can we find the CurrencyID + CurrencyName information in OneStream ? Regards,
