Reporting

Hi I'm currently reviewing the functionality of the Narrative Reporting and need some guidance with it. Per the option to insert content within a document, I have managed to get a Cube View to be active within the doc but cannot get a report component to generate?  I also managed to get the XFCell reference to work. The following is what I have used for a CV generation, which works fine: However, the actual syntax provided does not match what actually needs to be applied for it to work in the doc (i.e. see below provided syntax): Is there a list of what full syntax should be used for each of the categories listed in the Insert Content option? I've tried to use the same as the CV generation for a Report Component but that doesn't appear to work (as follows): {DOCVARIABLE "{XF}{Application}{Report}{rpt_FSR_BS_8_8_1}" "" ""}   Any help with this would be much appreciated?   Thanks

Hello, A client recently asked if it’s possible to create an 'exception cube view' based on an existing main one. The main cube view includes both positive and negative amounts across rows and columns. The client specifically wants the exception report to display only the negative values. To address this, I created a UD8 dynamic calc member that returns the U8#None value if it's negative and returns nothing if U8#None is positive. I then applied this new UD8 member to a copy of the main cube view, ensuring suppression is enabled. While this works well for smaller reports, the performance suffers with larger reports due to the nature of dynamic calculations. I also applied the classic formatting where positive amounts are transparent but it leaves the report with a lot of rows and columns that have the text transparent. Any other ideas on how this can be achieved?

Is there a non-admin role in onestream for health/performance monitoring, without any admin rights? Else is there a REST API to auto-export the "tasks" and "errors" logs on a recurring basis?     FYI, Since our recent v8 upgrade, my REST api calls to the onestream service are failing with intermittent and unexplainable issues.  The api never returns anything helpful in the way of an error message.  I only get 5xx codes with no content bodies.  I'm assuming that any information that may be relevant is found only by digging into the nullreferenceexception's (in the adminstrative tools found in the front-end U/I below)       ... while software developers should not be able to administer a production environment, we should be able to at least investigate these random and unpredictable errors (internal server errors).  I'm hoping there is some sort of read-only role for that, or at least an API to export the information that would otherwise be f

Hi Team, Please help us if any possible way for below requirement. I have multiple rows and columns. here, If my three columns "Time 3(D2), Time 4(E2) & Time 5(F2) are have zero data, then Row "Entity 1(A2)" should get hide. i have tried CV suppression setting but it is suppressing the row when the entire row have zero or No data. Kindly let me know if any other setting needs to apply.

Hi everyone, We have a cube view with three rows structured as follows: Row1: E#Parent1.Children:U1#Member1 Row2: E#Parent1.Children:U1#Member2 Row3: Variance between two columns. To handle this, I created an XFBR that dynamically generates a string based on the number of children for the user-selected parent (Parent1 as a parameter). The generated string will look something like this: GetDataCell(CVR(Row1,1) - CVR(Row2,1)), GetDataCell(CVR(Row1,2) - CVR(Row2,2)), and so on. We have three columns in the same cube view: two data columns and one text column. The text column uses the U8 member as a dynamic calc member, which returns a string. In the variance row for the text column, I'm getting a blank instead of a string. I’ve tried different row override methods using XFBR and XFCell, but haven’t had any success. I suspect that GetDataCell might be causing the issue, but I wanted to ask for some guidance. Has anyone encountered this problem, or does anyone have any suggestions? Your inp

I am building a UD8 dynamic calc to bypass the limit of 4 cube view overrides. The calculation will read the referenced member (e.g. A#Net_Income:S#Actual) and return a different member intersection (A#Net_Income:S#Plan2024) In order to return the correct plan scenario, The UD8 member must read the time parameter used in the cube view. This functionality exists, but is throwing an unexpected error. My parameter exists in the default workspace. To pull my literal parameter value, I have the following code: TimeParameter = "Param_Time_LitValue" Dim TimeMbr As String = BRApi.Dashboards.Parameters.GetLiteralParameterValue(Si, False, Guid.Empty, TimeParameter) TimeMbr returns the value "Unknown". From my research, this error occurs when you reference a parameter that is defined in a different workspace, which is not the case here. I would appreciate advice on what I am doing wrong. The sample code I am following is found within BRAPI>Dashboards>Parameters. The sample says that the Tim

Does any know if its possible to create a dashboard label with vertical orientation where the text is rotated 90 degress and the letters from the bottom up?

  When I do a keep only on this quickview below, it causes all rows to disappear.  only way to get around it is to choose the entity I want in the parameter/member filter builder.   Why would keep only cause all rows to disappear?    

I have a CV with a row definition A#A111:U1#XYZ:U2#ABC:U3#LMN, A#A111:U1#XYZ:U2#ABC:U3#OPQ Please note U3 is LMN and then OPQ.  This definition is generated by a BR.I am trying to color a row in the CV if the U3 member is say "OPQ".I was able to format the color based on U3(using RowE1MemberName conditional formatting) but had to make U3 the first Row Header by saying "Use Default Row Headers" false and setting U3 as Header1. Want to see if there is some way of saying that without making the U3 as the first row header.  Thanks, JS     

Has anyone figured out a way to use an XFBR to determine the Bound Parameter on a Combo Box? It seems like a no-brainer that this should be possible but I've not been able to figure out how. Hoping someone has figured out what the syntax on the XFBR has to be to make this work or can confirm that this isn't possible.  Thanks

I am trying to create a small POC for using a SQL Table Editor tool.  However, I am unable to edit a table row on the SQL Table Editor even after it is in a Dashboard with all of the settings to do so.  What is the typical reason for this?  I have Default For Allow Column Updates = True and my OneStream Database Server Maintenance Group for Ancillary Tables is set to Administrators (I am an Admin).  I tried setting that to Everyone and that didn't work either.  I am confused on way the basic functionality of this to to edit SQL data is not working.  Any help appreciated!   Thank you!  

Hello, Is there a way to set the default value for the member list . I created a parameter and wrote a XFBR string set this parameter as the default to the other parameter that is the bound value on the cbx and it did not work.   Any suggestions? 

Hi All, Can you help me please? Within the Hierarchy for the business, there is a section called GroupEntity. No one is claiming use of this and so I would like to delete it, if possible, to avoid the extra maintenance needed to keep the structure in line with the others each time a change is needed. Is there a way to see where this has been used or gets referenced? I guess I could just delete this and wait for people to shout but if there is a better way to approach this - Please let me know? Thanks in advance for any pointers given here. Cheers,John

Hi there, I'm trying to clean up the column headers on my cube view so that it leaves the view blank.  I have achieved this by adding the view to the member filter and using adding the following text:Name( ). I needed to use the view member filter since I've adding a trailing 3-month average column, otherwise the view member is determined by a dashboard parameter.   This works fine except for the column where I've needed to use the second member filter to designate the scenario such as the forecast column.  Does anyone know how I can modify this to so that the view member is blank for all columns?

We upgraded to 8.2.2 last month and switched our data connector to the SIC connector.  Since upgrading all our drilldown cube views (to stage data) have been loading slow.  Most of them used to load instantaneously.  Now some take 5-15 minutes to load.  Has anyone had this issue?  I have an open ticket with support.   They ran indexing and that helped but just a bit.  Thanks in advance.

Hello, We are working on a navigation dashboard which navigates users to corresponding workflow when they click on a button. It works perfectly but we want to go further. In stead of positioning on the workflow (for example, current WFProfile is ConsoReporting.EntryForms1), is it possible to directly open the first required form on this workflow profile? Thanks in advance.
