Reporting

  Good morning, I am writing to inquire about the correct formula for calculating the difference between two values in the same column in a Calculated Field of a Report Design. For example, if I wanted to calculate the difference between the values 121.46 and 120.30 in the "Col0Value" column, what would be the exact formula to use in the Calculated Field? The data are read from a cube view data adapter (not MD). The image below shows an example of the data from the data adapter. Thank you.      

I am building a donut chart in bi viewer. I am using my Geography UD2 as the arguments. My member names are long: 'United States Region', 'Asia Region', etc. I would like to rename them visually for this report. Is this possible? I cannot rename them in my dimension library, and renaming them in the cube view with the :name() member expansion does nothing. Thank you in advance.

I have an excel template. I had a DataList on a cell coming from another sheet.  I added the name ranges for the TableView as it gets data from SQl.  It used to work but it has stopped working and the DropDown of the list doe not happen. It shows the arrow for the partuclar cell but when you click it does not show the list.    Thank You, Indu

I want to navigate to a workflow from a dashboard button and thougt I found my answer in selecting the open page action and using "XFPage=Workflow".  This works and when i click the button it takes me to the workflow page using my current WF settings.  I was hoping to get more granular and go to a specific workflow and found in the Design and Reference Guide this example which I was hoping to explore: "XFPage=Workflow:NameofWorkflow"  Has anyone worked with this succesfully as I just cant seem to get it to work and not sure if there is some syntax nuance I am missing.  Using GolfStream as an example I am trying "XFPage=Workflow:Houston.Journals" as an example but nothing.  It stops going to workflow at all.  

I need help with keeping some CV formatting when exporting to Excel. The current CV I've built works just fine, but when the client exports to Excel, some of the percent values are truncated to the whole number and the '%' is removed. EX: OneStream CV shows a cell value as "35.6%", but Excel shows "35" I've tried to mess around with the Excel formatting in the designer tab for CV's, but I cannot get the setting to carry over during export. Any advice would be much appreciated! 

Hi all, i need to buil a chart that it is easy to build in excel, but I don't know how to handle it using a chart in the report designer of the report component.  The chart that i have to build is the one in the attached picture. It is a waterfall chart in which you can see the delta between actual and budget distributed on the different line of business (for example delta between actual vehicles and budget vehicles is 31.5, delta between actual rail control and budget rail control is 13.3... and so on). On the other hand though the two bars representing actual and budget have the percentage distribution of the line of business (for example for the budget you can see that the total is 439.3 of which 57% is for vehicles line of business, 37% is Rail Control... and so on). Is there anyway the chance to build a chart like this one using the report component?   thank you in advance.

I'm looking to add a formula that takes an account and subtracts the difference between two scenarios. So, something like this: GetDataCell(A#ProductionTCFacSTd:S#Target_FY24) - GetDataCell(A#ProductionTCFacSTd:S#Target_FY24_SC). Can you please help see what I need to do to make this work in my cube view?

Good Morning!  Does anyone know how to build upon the set up variables in OneStream?   For Example: |CVYearNext| - This gives me the following year of the CV.  What if I want the following Year and the next one? Does anyone know how to pull that data?  So, if the CV is 2022 this variable will give the following year 2023, if I need 2024 and 2025 and so on.  How do you expand on this variable?

Hi Team, I am trying to create an Input CubeView with an expansion based on whether the 'Allow Input' setting is set to True for our UD5 Dimension Members.  To give a little bit of background, we are using the UD5 dimension for our Customer Codes. The setup is based on the different regions (which have their own cube) and the basis of the structure is captured under 'Customers'. The regions can have the flexibility to add more detail by adding members under this basis structure in their dimension: We have an Input CubeView that is currently set to .Base (from the dimension that belongs to the Cube we are inputting for). However, a member might be a Base member in one dimensions (however, we don't want and cannot input here), but a parent member in the other. That is why I am trying to create an expansion based on the Allow Input setting. However, when I try "Member.Base.Where(AllowInput=True) it is unfortunately not working.  Does anyone have any idea how we can solve this (

In OneStream cube views the features to either "Download Results And Save As A CSV File" or to "Download Results And Open" exists. Both features create CSV files with a comma as a delimiter. This is very annoying because when a comma is also used as thousands delimiter, so the CSV File does not get seperated in Excel columns correcty.Is there the possibility to change the delimiter fpor CSV files? RegardsMartin Gebhartl

Good morning, I am writing to ask if it is possible to prevent the graph labels from overlapping the data. The graph I am using is an overlapping column chart with very small percentages. This causes the data labels to overlap, making it difficult to read the chart. I have built this chart using a Chart (Advanced) component invoked in a dashboard; i have also tried to build this chart in a report component using the report designer, but i realized that i have the same problem with the labels. is it possible to control the position of those labels? Thank you    

Hi, I have a Bound List parameter with Command type SQL. 1. I have first tried to use an XFBR rule within the string of the Like condition. This works fine. 2. I have then tried to use the XFBR to return the full condition "cvi.Name Like..." (see below), but it looks like the XBFR is passed as a String to the SQL statement in this case, without processing the XFBR and returning its output (see error in the last picture). How do I force OneStream to process the XFBR before passing it to the SQL query? What is the right syntax? Note: things are commented out in the code below, but I have of course uncommented the lines as needed during the testing. Thank you

Hi all, I'm struggling to understand how the setting "Use suppression settings on parent rows" in cube views works.  I have this simple CV showing a list of accounts in the rows (1C205000 and descendants) and time in the columns: in the rows "Advanced" section, I set the following: my expectation here is to have all invalid, nodata or zero rows suppressed, except for the parent row (which I expect to be the row corresponding to the account 1C205000). However, when I launch it, also the parent row gets suppressed and I end up not seeing anything.  What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help!

Good evening, I would like to ask if it is possible to change the scaling from ##,###,###.## to ##.## in the Report Designer feature of the Report component. The data is read from a cube view with a scaling already entered. However, because I use an MD cube view in the data adapter, the scaling set is lost. Currently, by changing the setting in the Text Pattern, the desired result does not occur; I wonder if it is possible to change the Text Pattern so that it returns the desired result. Alternatively, if there is another way to solve this problem. Thank you        

Hi all,Trying to figure out how to position a component in a particular column (or give the appearance of that)It's a grid type and has 5 columns, 2 rows and 6 components (previously 6 columns, 1 row and 6 components but it's too wide for the screen that way) My hope was to put the 6th component on the far right of the dashboard (or at least to the right of the splitter) in a 2nd row.  There's no way in a Grid type dashboard that I can see where you can force a component to use a particular column, or is there and I just missed it? I've tried adding big margins to force it right but that doesn't work either.I'm thinking either this is not possible in a single dashboard and I will have to create a new 1 row dashboard to put that label component in.  But I would sure love to hear any ideas.  It feels like this should definitely be doable but I'm stumped.   I'm adding a diagram for better understanding of what I'm trying to accomplish Much thanks in advance for an

Hi I am using a column override formula in my cube view and I have noticed that it doesn't work when I try override a column when the name has spaces in it, even if I surround it in square brackets. Am I doing something wrong? Regards, Mark

I currently have a cube view set up that allows the user to enter lines of text to serve as commentary on the overall dashboard. The issue I am having is that the cube view does not allow for multiple lines of text on the same row.  I have done some research to find using a grid view allows for multiple lines of text in the same row. But I am not sure how/if it is possible to configure the grid view to appear similarly to the cube view but allow for multiple lines of entry within the same row.  Is it possible to replicate the cube view shown below but using a grid view to account for the multiple line of text functionality? Any help is appreciated!

I didn't yet find a post about this anywhere so adding this here in case anyone else encounters the same problem. If a user has an Excel with a formula that references a cube and a scenario that is not valid for that cube (i.e. there is no CubeRoot profile for that cube/scenario combination), all cells in the Excel (not just the cell with the mistake) will show #REFRESH instead of the expected values. This will somehow corrupt the Excel so that the problem continues even after the cell is removed and the sheet is refreshed! The only way to get all the other cells to retrieve values correctly again seems to be to remove the cell with the mistake, restart Excel, and then refresh again.

Hi team How do I create a border across rows and columns, essentially creating a box around them? The use case is for showing the detailed amounts for a subtotal in the AFS, contained within the box - as seen in the screenshot attached. When trying to add borders to a cell, it automatically applied the border selection to the rest of the rows as well.

Hi Can anyone tell me the name of the Market Place solution that contains a list of packaged UD8 Rep_Reporting dynamic Calcs?  Thanks Guy

We have a client that does a lot of prior period adjustments so they go through the workflow for the whole year a few times. We have automation set up to assist, however they would like a report that shows the workflow status for the whole year and not just one period. I know the application reports are out of the bos that shows a particular month throught method queries. That works great but has anyone ever created one that would pull the whole year? I was looking for a sub variable that does that but cant seem to find one or has anyone done anything different.  Much Appreciated!

Hello - I created a dynamic UD8 calc for a cube view that shows 12 months of actual, forecast and budget periodic amounts. The calc is designed to show zeroes in the actual scenario column for a period if its POV time is greater than than the global time. I added it to the cube view and it works perfectly when I run it for 2024M12 - the actual columns are all zeroes, while it displays the budget and forecast numbers. When I run the CV for 2023M12, since our global time is still 2023M11 I'm expecting zeroes to be in the Actual column, but I'm still getting the opposite sign YTD "no data zero view" totals instead. Below is the formula in the UD8 member - let me know what changes I need to make. I appreciate the assistance. Dim gbTimeName As String = BRApi.Workflow.General.GetGlobalTime(si) Dim gbTimeID As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Time.GetIdFromName(si, gbTimeName) Dim gbYear As Integer = BRApi.Finance.Time.GetYearFromId(si, gbTimeID) 'Get pov year Dim pvYear As Integer = api.Time.GetYearF

Hello! I have a user group who needs a specific set of data pulled just after close every month in order to populate other reporting tools they use. Here's the formatting they require: I'm struggling on my options because this results in about 16M+ rows of data. I get an error when trying to export the CV and a QV won't show all rows even with the max # of seconds set to the largest number (which I believe is 600). A DM extract will not show the right format but I don't think a QV can be auto run and sent via Parcel Service. What are my other options? Thanks for helping me brainstorm!

I am trying to incorporate patterns in the advanced charts and bi viewer bar charts. I don't see any option to select the color patterns. This is one of the examples of the pattern mentioned below -> Light Blue 48A6EA Dotted 90%  

I think I may have found a bug with workspaces but wanted to see if anyone has encountered this issue before.  I am displaying a dashboard with an embedded Cubeview that has a link to a dashboard in a non-default workspace.  When I launch the dashboard, I see the drill link but nothing happens when I click on it.  However, if I add the same dashboard to either the Default workspace, or the workspace where the dashboard resides that I am launching from, the link works without issue.  It seems that if you want to follow a link in a Cubeview in a dashboard it either has to be in the same workspace or in default.  I guess it might make sense because when adding the link in the Cubeview there is no option I am aware of to specify a Workspace so OneStream might get confused as to where to find the dashboard.  Has anyone else had a similar issue or know if I am missing something?
