Rules

HelloI've tried to load my excel file through the data source fixed files with a complex expression on the time dimension, and i think it doesn't go through the complex expression at all so i'm wondering if i can use a complex expression in fixed file data source ?    The check i'm trying to do is to verify the workflow period and the time that's in my load file. if it's the same it can continue loading but if it's different i'm asking OS to pop up a error message.If anyone has an idea please share it with meThanks 🙂

Hi there,  I want to add data to a dictionary with a key that contains 3 fields. I've been advised to use a ValueTuple but have tried all the syntax options that i could find in Google without success.   Ideally it should be like the setup of a databuffer where the key is the databuffercellPk and the value the actual stored number. My key should contain 3 strings and the value a decimal). I've tried something like: Dim dctDict as New Dictionary<(String sn, String Tm, String Ac)>, int(); and various other options.  Does anybody had a suggestion how to create the best performing Dictionary Key that exists of 3 strings?

Hi - We are try to create logic that will determine whether a scheduled job would run. We have been able to create the logic to only run if current date is <= to the day of the month (Calendar Day) but what we really want is to be able to know if it is before for a specific working day so excluding weekends (for example working day 10 in September 2021 would be the 14th) . Has anyone created this logic and would be willing to share?

I've been given a task to debug an error that happens when we confirm a month, and I'm not sure what some of the messages are telling me.   When I run Confirmation, I get an error in a dialog box, and the title of the Dialog Box is "Extensible Finance." Should I be looking for a confirmation or a business rule with that name? The error text is "A#Facilities_Allocation:F#None:O#Forms:I#None:U1#None:U2#1:U3#None:u4#None:U5#None:U6#None:U7#None:U8#None" which I recognize as a ... I forget the term but I think of it as the filter parameters. But I'm not sure where to look for this. If I scroll down further in the task activity and open the error message to see the details, I see a line that says      Source code: ConfirmationEngineWcf.cs, line 133, method ExecuteConfirmation Is there a rule called ConfirmationEngineWcf that I should be looking for?

Coming from HFM, I'm used to having a single rules file that I can easily search through. In OneStream,  the equivalent rules appear to be defined for each individual account as a metadata property. I.e.  the Formula. Is there a way to extract all of the Account Formulas into a single file so that  I can search through it? Instead of having to click through each account in turn and opening up the individual formulas?

Hey - Wondering how you learned to code VBNet. I’ve been trying to improve my skill to write tailored Business Rules. Any resources/guide to share? Thanks,Mustafa

Source:   Migrated from Champions I’m trying to use the below member filter to remove only the intercompany accounts. This works, but I lose the indents from using Tree Descendants. A#410000.TreeDescendants.Where(IsIC = False) Is there a workaround to remove just the IC accounts while still retaining the indents from tree descendants?

Dear community, I have a nasty error message when I execute a data management task : "Error processing Data Management Step 'STEP1'. Data validation error. The Data Cell is read-only because the Parent Workflow Profile 'Activity MyEntity' has no active Input Profiles for the Workflow Channels that are assigned to the Data Cell's Account and/or UD member. Entity=MyEntity, Account=GL11410, Origin=Import." The funny thing is, I have no clue what is the issue. I try to execute a "Copy Data" data management that copies periodic data on the same cube, same entity, but from 2021 Actual to 2022 budget (only imported data).   --> What am I missing ?   Regards,

There are certain calculations are specific to some entities in the hierarchy so want to add if condition to check entity names and then execute the code. Couldn't find any api which returns Entity name. Regards, Yashwant

Source:   Migrated from Champions I asked this question from OneStream staff at the Splash conference and OneStream support. I thought perhaps someone in this group has run into the same issue: The standard that appears to be used for calculating FX does not appear to be correct. It appears from the snippet that FX is calculating taking the month to date amount X month end closing rate - month to date amount X month average rate. From the Flow FX (Calculated) snippet: If (api.Cons.IsCurrency() And Not api.Cons.IsLocalCurrencyforEntity()) Then Dim timeId As Integer = api.Pov.Time.MemberPk.MemberId Dim rateTypeRev As FxRateType = api.FxRates.GetFxRateTypeForRevenueExp() Dim rateTypeClo As FxRateType = api.FxRates.GetFxRateTypeForAssetLiability() Dim closingRate As Decimal = api.FxRates.GetCalculatedFxRate(rateTypeClo,timeId) Dim averageRate As Decimal = api.FxRates.GetCalculatedFxRate(rateTypeRev,timeId) 'Calculate FX activity for current movement between Average and Closing

Hello,   I'm new to Business Rule, and I'm struggling with the execution of a data management step with type "custom calculate". Currently, the execution of this script is giving me the message below : Error processing Data Management Step 'CC_FY2022_BUD'. Unable to execute Business Rule 'CopyData'. Invalid destination data unit in script 'A#Account1:C#Local:T#2022M1:S#Budget:U1#None:U3#T:U8#None:O#Import'.   In the Data Management step, I have defined elements in the POV and Data Units, and "Data Units" elements seem to be taken into account correctly, but elements in the "POV" such as U2, U4, U5, U6, U7 elements that have been defined in the POV of data element task (hierarchy nodes) seem like is not considered in the calculation.   So here are my questions: - What is the error message mentionned above actually saying ? - Are POC elements from the Data Element task taken into account in the Finance Business Rules ? - How do you efficiently debug a Business Rule ? &nbsp

Is there a way to validate the Total Debit or Total Credit amount of a journal and send back a warning/fail message if the total is over a certain threshold when we try to post/save the journal? Thanks

Hi, I would like to retrieve the value for a text attribute of a member - could be in any any dimension - in order to display it in a label on a dashboard. Can I do so with a generic XFBR?

Hi all How can I run a calculation for a subset of dimension members. Something like all base members of member Top, but not the none member, or just the members with text1 attribute = "Calculate", or just a comma separated list of members. Do I need a for loop? Cheers

Originally posted by Ramanathan GanapathyHello All, Currently Our Default Currency in the system is 'USD".  The system is rolling up the value correctly for the all the flow member formulas for USD.  We also defined additional currencies in the system and for that the base value is not rolling up to the parent.    Is there is any formula available for us to use for the Parent to do the aggregation instead of Translation?   Thanks & Regards, Ram

How can I use the api.LogMessage or BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage functions to print out the member names of a list of objects  like member, or memberinfo?
