Is it possible to create a rule and feeder that allows me to 'Copy' a value from one element to all other elements in a dimension eg. In a cube with Dimensions Dim1,Dim2,Dim3 and Measures Where Measures has 2 elements 'Value' and 'BaseValue' Dim_3 has a special 'LoadedValue' Data is loaded to elemen...

Why did you go for OBIEE over IBM-Cognos BI?

Or buy one of these funky new solid state disk drives !

The disk system is normally going to be the bottleneck, but it must be possible to write to disks in parallel.

Feeder syntax question: ['a'] => ['b'],['c]; This syntax is still being taught ( June 2010). The course does 'teach' skipcheck and feeders. Probably enough to get you through the developer exam but way short of what is being discussed here. I am trying to set up a trivial example to show at a simpl...

I discovered this afternoon that you can fire executables remotely, so you can leave your .net application and the .net api on your Tm1 server and kick it off from elsewhere so there isn't really any need to set up the API on other machines.

This might be common knowledge/documented/obvious but..... In order to run an application (or develop one ) using the TM1 API , you need to use the setup kit to install the .NET API. I thought it would be sufficient to reference the Applix.TM1.API.dll from a .NET project. Incidentally does anyone kn...

I simply cannot get that to work (refuses to find my server)
However I used the new .net api with visual studio express 2010 to write a cheap and dirty app and success!!!!

Thanks for the pointers chaps.

(No pun intended...)

Although this approach will "work" an external trigger is definitely a better option and safer bet. Scheduling a process at this frequency has a high probability of causing locking and queuing of some degree as it is inevitable that at some point the process will overlap with another proc...

I haven't managed to get the API to connect yet so I found this workaround, somebody might find it useful. Basically you can use a TI process to detect the existence of a file. So what you can do is create a file from your external application when you want the TI process to start. You can then crea...

Adding to the increasingly popular topic of TM1 with report studio, is there any way to expose a subset defined in TM1 to a report?
(ie can we make a subset 'draggable' from the hierarchy viewer into a report).

Hi all, hope you can help with a fundamental problem we're facing? Is there a best practice for creating a date dimension, or a guide to what our options might be? We are trying to build a TM1 solution for Cognos BI reporting. We'd like to have all the goodies of being able to easily aggregate up fr...

9.5 Also seems to need

log4cxx.dll
and
TM1ULibDll.dll

both of which are in the cognos bin

although having installed those already, the TM1ProcessExecute, keeps returning with "Unable to retrieve TM1 server handle"
