Hi All,Setting up the context for the question:I am trying to load the data via 3 different import channels (chan1, chan2, chan3) in a same WF.2 of the import channels (chan2, chan3) are for the sales data load and 1 (chan1) is used to load the historical data for those entities in the similar data unit.  Basically, data from chan1 has data units that is shared between chan2 and chan3. I enabled the overlapped sibling settings to merge the data from (chan1 and chan2) and also for (chan1 and chan3).  The issue I am facing is as soon I load chan1 after loading chan2 & 3, the import channel status for 2 and 3 goes to LOAD CUBE from PROCESS CUBE. If I reprocess the chan2, the status for both chan1 and chan3 gets changes to LOAD CUBE despite of the fact that chan2 and chan 3 have different data units (Both of these channels are hitting different sets of accounts)?Has anyone faced this issue in the application? If yes, please guide me to freeze the status of

hi,Cell data for the below intersection has been saved into the cube.  Error logs  shows the percentage value getting saved into the intersection. But its not showing up while reteieivng with the Quickview with the same intersection. Any property needs to be updated. UD8 member LRP_Percentage  has been used to store the percentage value.  Thanks 

Hi OS experts,  I want to exclude a base entity - as it must not be affected by the derivative - from its parent for the purpose of this derivative. All entity under a specific parent (ie TDM)  must be part of the derivative expression but excluding one base entity. Anyone knows how I can achieve this? This is my derivative expression ->  

Has anyone used or familiar with OneStream SAP Connector. Need confirmation on couple of questionsIs it SAP certified?Can it connect to SAP On-Premise (with OneStream On Cloud) ? If so what config are needed? Do we need VPN connection? Thanks,Sachin

Mocking up a Prototype using the new Assembly feature in 7.4, I would like to be able to reference an Extender Business Rule within a Dashboard Assembly file. The scenario is, that I have a custom class (POCRunner) in an Extender file, and want to be able to call functions on that class object, when hitting a button in a Dashboard. I can't seem to find the right combination of assembly name and/or dependencies. The argument to have the custom class in an Extender, is also to be able to utilize a Data Management Sequence to trigger a job, calling the POCRunner class.Otherwise open for any other suggestion / approach.Thanks

We have built a custom model in a dev environment and now want to migrate this to a user test environment.  The build includes a number of database tables that we want to copy between the environments as they contain a large amount of data that needs to be used by the user test and will also be required to be migrated to the production environment.  Is there a way to copy database tables between environments, there doesn't seem to be anything obvious in the Load/Extract object list?

Is it possible to show the task progress dialog (see picture below) of a DM task started in a BR. Dim task As TaskActivityItem = BRApi.Utilities.ExecuteDataMgmtSequence(...) ' Do something with task to show dialog? Or is there another way to consolidate from a BR, where it automatically shows the progress dialog?Context: Button -> Dashboard Extender BR to change params -> DM sequence -> Consolidate. I need the Dashboard Extender API on same button press to change params, so can't call the DM/consol directly from button press.

As we cannot filter the Tree member expansion, is it possible to create a custom Tree?If not as a custom expansion, perhaps a code that returns a tree i.e. XFTreeItem?Dimension:AccountParent1    + Member1    + Member2        +Member2.1            +Member2.1.1            +Member2.1.2        +Member2.2            +Member2.2.1 In the above account dimension, I dont want Member 2.2. I just want the ultimate Parent1, the next level (Member1, Member2), and all base members. The result would be something like: Parent1    + Member1    + Member2            +Member2.1.1            +Member2.1.2            +Member2.2.1 Thx 

hi , Suddenly the custom calculate BR is not getting called from the DM step. The error log statements which added inside the custom calculate BR are not logged in as well. Below is the rule and the DM step.   

I need to get a list of accounts based on what the cube view I created spits out. The cube view only has one row grabbing all the base children but has suppression on a column that will only show if there is a variance between 2 other columns. Each day the number of accounts with variances can differ and there is another column with a combo box for approve or deny. I need the list of accounts so I can provide the user with a mass approve or deny button

Hi,We have a CV that has first few columns Actuals and rest as Forecast. User can select the Base Entity and enter the numbers in forecast columns but only look at the Actuals numbers.We have situation where we need to show parent of entity member for Actuals but use that base entity to capture forecast amounts.  We need this for just 5-6 entity members. Any idea how I can achieve this without writing complex business rule? Tried conditional formatting but no luckThanks,PM

Is it possible to use a Business Rule to save one Security group under another security group? If so, can you share an example of how this would be done?

We are working on uploading and downloading files onto OneStream FileExplorer. It is possible to fetch the encoded file from the FileContents using the SQL Query over the REST API. Similarly, is it possible to upload the data to the FileExplorer using the REST API? Any ideas would be much appreciated. Regards, Anusha

Hi All, In an event of OneStream primary database crashes during the month or year end of the Statutory Reporting when users heavily rely on the system, Could you please suggest the steps we will consider to reinstate the system. Thanks Amit

My rows are my UD3 Dimension, and I want to mimic a current Excel Report.  I want to Left Justify the Description and right justify the UD3 Name so it basically looks like this.  Boys garments                   B100Mens garments                  B110I have this Name function to reverse the Description and Name.U3#Root.List(B100, B110):Name(XFMemberProperty(DimType=UD3, Member=|MFUD3|, Property=Description)XFMemberProperty(DimType=UD3, Member=|MFUD3|, Property=Name))Based on that I getBoys garmentsB100Mens garmentsB110Of course I could add some spaces, but I have Descriptions that vary greatly.I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a statement could make the Member Name property to Right Justify.  Any ideas appreciated, otherwise I just get the users to accept it in Name Description format.

Hello - I have a cube view that currently has two columns. The first is just base members of an account hierarchy, and the second is a dynamic calc UD8 that retrieves the text 5 value for each account stored by scenario type. The UD8 is working and pulling the correct text 5 values, however some but not all of the stored item text is delimited by semicolons. How can I split this text by semicolon into separate columns in the cube view?

Hi All, I have created a Cube view which has  negative values in few cells with parenthesis format in OneStream, when i try to export the repot to an Excel am not getting the same format in Excel instead am getting "-" in Excel. I need the same format in excel while exporting. Can anyone suggest the formatting settings how to get that. Please find the below snaps for reference.     Thanks in Advance.

Hi all, I wonder if I can use the following code in a Cube Cell Format.        "XFMemberProperty (DimType=Account, Member=|MFAccount|, Property=AccountType)"The idea is to flip value sign in case AccountType is 'Expense'. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  If ('XFMemberProperty(DimType=Account, Member=[RowE1MemberName] , Property=AccountType)= 'Expense') Then               FlipSign = TrueEnd If-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

Hi,We are trying to automate the Workflow to import, Validate, and Load data to the cube using the Business rule. Please let us know how to proceed as I am new to Business rules. Thank you.

hi , Am getting mutiple values from the databuffer for the same intersection. Database has  Status1 ,Value1  then up to ...Status 12 ,Value 12...  I beleive that only the Staus 12 and Value 12 combination alone has to be used but am not sure how it can be pulled in the rule , others are the past values which are stored for that particular intersection..Based on this value further calculation of  % on UD 8 needs to be made. Rule:  Thanks

What I have found is that using the BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMemberInfo or Metadata.GetMember calls with True for includeProperties or even the first call to BRApi.Finance.UD.Text(...) all incur an average of just over 2 seconds and we are looping through 27,000+ projects so 15 hours to check and update the text fields. It seems that it gets cached either in OneStream or the SQL server so a second call done in the update function is no additional cost. The Dimension Library object obviously does this a much faster way, maybe by specifying the individual properties wanted in one of the optional objects versus all properties?   There has to be a faster way.  When using the Dimension Library and setting Grid View's Settings to NOT display parent child relationships, you gain access to the Text# fields.  You can update a lot of these at one time FAST.   I have even updated a function I used to add calling the GetMembersUsingFilter with the option to include All properti

I need to build a cube view that shows my closing & average FX rates in my row set. Which dimension has these options? 

Workflow, journals Hi all, So our client wants the end users to be able to create journals but not post them. Group finance team will review and approve and post all the journals created. I think the security bit can be done using the workflow profile settings. The question is: Is there a way for the group finance users to see all the journals created by end users and go through them instead of navigating to every workflow to approve the journals. Is there a way to do this? Thanks

Guys, There is a requirement to reverse the signage of all Revenue Accounts, So we have a Code that gets all The Revenue Accounts and Multiplied it with ' -1' , And the data is getting Flipped . But when we try to Consolidate that flipped Data , It is getting Cleared . Also When We try to run The rule 2 or 3 times , then also the Data is Getting Cleared. Any idea why this is happening. This is the code that does the flipping :Dim accountDimName As String = "Financial_Statements" Dim mFilter As String = "A#[4.00.000.000].Base" Dim lstAccounts As List(Of MemberInfo) = BRApi.Finance.Metadata.GetMembersUsingFilter(si, accountDimName, mFilter, False) 'filter on revenue accounts Dim lstRevenueAccounts As List(Of MemberInfo) = lstAccounts.Where(Function(x) BRApi.Finance.Account.GetAccountType(si, x.Member.MemberId).Equals(AccountType.Revenue)).ToList() For Each MemberInfo As MemberInfo In lstRevenueAccounts Dim nMemberId As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Memb
