Re: Practical experience of PAW AI forecasting / performance

The main CON I've faced here - is it's inability to work with our favorite "READ on C: level" setup: it will throw error when it tries to spread forecast of consolidated element to it's children. So you need to either make users make forecasts on N: elements only, or to leave C: level to ...

Re: Practical experience of PAW AI forecasting / performance

Well I am beginning to wonder whether anyone out there actually uses this functionality.

Posted the same questions on a Planning Analytics LinkedIn Group at the same time - viewed by 170 people and no replies! :lol:

Practical experience of PAW AI forecasting / performance

Morning folks! Does anyone have any actual practical experience of rolling out AI forecasting in PAW and it's limitations? I've been experimenting with it for the past half a day and I'm wondering whether it's going to be useable for our situation; The business has a cube storing KPI information and...

Re: Multiple PAX issues - Excel Office 365 compatibility?

Thanks for the replies guys

Frustrating that PAX is now on it's 39th iteration and still somewhat buggy - here's hoping IBM get round to making it stable soon!

Multiple PAX issues - Excel Office 365 compatibility?

Hi! I haven't posted on these forums in many years and great to see that they're still going ;) Wondering if anyone can share their experience of working with PAX. We have a number of intermittent issues that I've been struggling to find a permanent resolution for. We have 3 main issues; 1 - TM1 for...

Re: SaaS as a datasource

Thanks for the input guys; Had a couple more internal chats and we'll probably go down the Powershell route.

I'll post back when this is complete to advise how it went!

SaaS as a datasource

We're potentially embarking on a project to replace our ledger systems with a SaaS provider. Given that we'll have no access to the underlying database, data extracts will need to come via reports in CSV format. Rather than this being a manual, 2 stage, process (ie Push from SaaS, then pull into TM1...

Re: Locking out some admins

One option here may be to look at Replication? You could have a separate model that includes the confidential detail, then perhaps have a process which replicates across data from a summary cube?

Re: Cognos 10 Report Studio Prompt from TM1 dimension

We overcame something similar in report studio by creating a parallel hierarchy in the dimension - a new parent that only has the N'level elements underneath it.

The prompt then just has a query that is set to show all descendants of.....

Re: Queries while implementing a new TM1 model

Re the first point;

There's really no difference between a 32bit and 64bit environment, save for the obvious which is that you'll be constrained by a maximum of 3gb in 32bit environment (with 3gb switch applied), whereas in the 64bit world you'll only be limited by the amount of memory on the server.

Re: TM1 model across multiple company

Or an entirely different approach - Keep journal adjustments away from TM1 entirely and have a consolidation entity in the ledger system (the data from which is loaded into TM1).

You may find this is prefered by your finance / audit team

Re: Problem with Feeder

I have a model doing exactly (from my interpretation) what yours is trying to do Kujors. I need to feed elements in a destination cube based on text inputs (from picklist linked to target dimension) in a source cube. I found that cells were being correctly fed when data was entered in the source cub...
