Workflow and Data Integration

Hello OneStream CommunityDoes anyone know how to get the data source time to use the WF time instead of the start Time range scenario . The import data source is using the start time instead of the WF , POV time. Thank you

I'm having trouble getting my data files to import into the correct quarter of the workflow. Whenever I load the data into the Q2 import of the workflow, it removes the Q1 data and adds the Q2 data to the Q1 import of the workflow. (screenshot attached)  I am having a hard time finding the correct settings to allow me to load the quarterly data files into each quarter of the workflow. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!  

I want to create a yearly LTP scenario of type (scenario1) where input frequency is yearly and data can be input for like below I want to restrict this scenario for data input for particular years like, FY26-FY36. (with 1 entry a year) What setting can I do- to make this scenario available for input only for 10 years.  

HI All, I have been asked to see if OneStream can take a feed in to update the metadata. We are looking at having a Master Data Management system which will be used to update all the downstream systems. SO new accounts, entities or dimension members get created in this MDM system and then ideally gets automatically updated into OneStream (either mapping tables or Metadata hierarchy updates). Has anyone tried to do this ? Thanks Tahir

I am looking to implement an incremental data extraction feature for our cube data. Specifically, I need to extract all data from inception and continue to do so on a quarterly basis, including any updates to previous quarters. Any ideas or best practices on how to achieve this effectively would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, First time posting question here. I'm a developer new to the OneStream.   I'm trying to run a remote business rule to pull a file that stored on Local Gateway Server. The idea is to have the content of the data file returned to OS in bytes[].  I have extender rule  and SIC Function rule. After I executed the Extender rule, I printed out a few things from the returned object and looks like there is an exception when executing the remote rule. Could anyone give any pointers? Any help is appreciated!    Error Returned BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,objRemoteRequestResultDto.RemoteException.StackTrace) ' Returned -> ' at OneStream.Shared.Wcf.RelayHostInfo.InvokeRequest(IRemoteRequestBase xfRequest) ' at OneStream.Shared.Wcf.OneStreamRelayAgent.SendRelayRequest(IRemoteRequestBase xfRequest) BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si,objRemoteRequestResultDto.RemoteException.GetBaseException.Message) ' Returned -> ' DirectConnection BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage

Hello Everybody,Could you please help to get a solution how to complete all WF forms at once for all descendants. We already got the extensibility rule for this purpose but it's completing all WF steps except forms. The function for form exists (brapi.Forms.Process.ExecuteCompleteForm(si, formPk)), but we are having trouble retrieving the formPk...Would be highly grateful if someone can share an idea how to solve this.Best Regards,Svetlana  

Is there a way I can check my source records before importing data into a stage? If I am in a workflow for Import, Validate and Load, Even before the data is imported, I would like to check my source record for a condition like if it is less than a particular value. Only if the condition satisfies, I need to proceed to import else stop the workflow. If someone has done it, can you share the setup and code for the same. Appreciate your help!

Is there any way to read data from Onestream cube (.csv/.txt/Data Table) and push it to external system using external Web API connection (Not Onestream Rest API, SFTP)? Is it possible to do it using SIC?

We tried to copy from test environment to development environment which failed. we emailed Onestream who gave the following response: 'Thank you for logging this request with us. It looks like the app copy failed out due to a lack of storage space in your Prd1 environment. You can view the applications in your Prd environment by using the System Diagnostic tool. The latest release of System Diagnostics (PV620 SV200) now allows cloud customers to see up-to-date information on all Application Database sizes and Elastic Pool used space from within the OneStream application, under Environment Analysis reports. This is now available on our Solution Exchange website: (https://solutionexchange.onestream.com/dashboard/home/browse)We can provide 2 potential solutions with this:1.

Increase storage limit (which can incur costs)   We have couple of questions on the above: 1) how mu

How are the Debit and Credit inputs treated when using an account set as Account Type Balance on a Journal?  Are debits positive and credits negative?

Hello OneStream community,I'm working on a data import process where our source file contains Entity codes with hyphens (e.g., "ENT-BER"), but in our OneStream application, these codes use underscores instead (e.g., "ENT_BER").I'm looking for an efficient way to automatically transform these Entity codes during the import process without having to create individual mappings for each entity.Where in the OneStream configuration should I add this transformation rule? In the Data Source settings, Transformation Rules, or somewhere else?Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help! 

Hello. When importing an application from an older version of OneStream XF into the latatest version of OneStream XF in CloudI received an error message regarding the "DataManagement.xml" file. It wasn't admitting the <dataManagementProfiles> section of the file. So I had to remove it fromt he XML file to load sucessfully the application. Then when I entered the application (using the OneStream client), I saw in the screen that we didn't have a section for DataManagemente Profiles (neither a button to craeate them). Are they still in use? (so we should open a Ticket to get the issue checked by OneStream Technical Support)Or are they an outdated type of artifact that no longer exist in the newest version of OneStream XFSupport?Thanks in advance

I am using a below code to display Intersection Error. The code works perfectly fine- except for one thing. The problem is when the error is - Invalid Member Name.Entity,2010 It only outputs- "Invalid Member Name" (may be because it gets period) Is there a way to update below code to also show Entity ,2010-  instead of just 'Invalid Member Namr' ***************************************************************** Guid gWFid = si.WorkflowClusterPk.ProfileKey;                     int idScenario = si.WorkflowClusterPk.ScenarioKey;                     int idTime = si.WorkflowClusterPk.TimeKey;                       using (DbConnInfoApp dbConnApp = BRApi.Database.CreateApplicationDbConnInfo(si))                     {                    

We have lot of workflows by entities, for each entity we need to add another workflow step(Import). and each workflow has different security groups. here, how can i updated the new workflow step at a time at one go.

Hi all, We have experienced that in our application, at specific times of high workload where many processes are executed simultaneously, some tasks in the workflow that involve loading data into the cube remain in the ‘Running’ state for hours. I wonder how to find the cause of this issue, which seems to be a performance problem during periods of high workload. Thank you.

Does anyone know how to display Workflow status in a Cube View or a Dashboard? I would like to create a report that would show the status of a particular step within a subset of workflows. I am thinking of a more formatted presentation of the information available in the "Dependent Status" grid available in the "parent" workflow "Certify" grid. More specifically I would like to create a report showing the status of all "Flash Report" steps in the attached screenshot. Thank you in advance and best regards. Yan

I want to create a table and columns in SIC, but only the table name is being created. I want to know how to fix this problem. Below is my sample query and code.

Hi,  I'm having difficulties trying to specify the Parent Filter in the data management step and was wondering if anyone has encounter this before and can suggest a better approach. I'm creating a data management step to trigger custom calculate elimination rule and trying to specify multiple parent members however it doesn't seem to work properly. When debugging the BR, i can see api.pov.parent is returning nothing whenever multiple parent members are specified in the parent filter of the Data Management Step.  It does work properly when a single parent member is defined, but this means I need to create multiple data management steps to triger the same calculation.  Below is the illustration of this scenario. Appreciate all the help/advise i can get. Thank you.
