Re: TM1 10.2.2 released (or not)

There is a tutorial on how to use the Java TI feature here: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/groups/community/TM1SDK Thanks for that. Not quite what I was expecting either, but it'll require some exploration time. So stupid question....does this mean that a TI Process can call and run a...

Re: Cube multiplication and factoring.

Thanks for input but that's not what I am asking. I want to actually multiply the first cube by the second cube and get a result to aggregate. Well, actually, that is what you are asking. In order for the calculations to aggregate, you have to have the proper dimensionality in a cube to do the aggr...

Re: Cube multiplication and factoring.

This is pretty much Multi-dimensional Modelling 101 here. You decide along what axes you want to summarize by and make them dimensions where each of them have a top-level parent that sums all the children. From the looks of things, the third cube would have Company, Week, Province (or maybe this co...

Cube multiplication and factoring.

I am not sure whether this can be done nor what is the best approach to do this, so maybe someone can shed some light here. -I have a cube that contains the following: Start date, Province, company, widget# This cube is wehere company information resides -I have a second cube that contains the follo...

Why TM1?

If I needed to make a business case on why I should use TM1 over tools such as Microsoft SASS, could I get a few pros and cons in a few sentences? Only things I can think of is. Pros -writeback capability -forecasting ? -easier to learn than SSAS ? Cons -Not the best integration with Excel (active f...

Re: Turbo Integrator snapshot to Excel

Hello, I was thinking about this from your earlier post:- Therefore a snapshot takes ALOT less time to generate on demand I assume you mean generating a snapshot to Excel from a cube view. I may be completely wrong here but I would have thought that the work involved for TM1 in the initial generati...

The requirement you have described (as I understand it) seems to be fundamental TM1/Excel functionality as suggested by lotsaram. My suggestion would be Build a report in Excel that shows th...

Re: Turbo Integrator snapshot to Excel

Why "using a TI process"? The best way to get data from a view into Excel is to have an array of DBRW formulas in Excel and simply recalculate. Easy, quick, simple, no fuss. Why complicate things? If this requires automation and output in an excel file with no links to a tm1 server then I...

Re: Turbo Integrator snapshot to Excel

Yes, I exclude the zeros. I should rephrase that sentence. I can figure that out....but I am more interested in copying EXACTLY what is in the view I created and exporting EXACTLY what is in that view to a cma file or excel file. Hence the question about snapshotting to Excel

Thanks!

Is there anyway to have a view of aggregated data snapshotted to excel using a TI process? I have a cube that is using daily values....its huge and if I use the ascii output for that it takes forever. So I made a view to aggregate into weeks. I can snapshot into excel no problem and doesn't take too...

Re: report burst (vba)

Hi there

I am noobie in TM1 and a little familiar with report bursting, what does this actually do?

Does it send a snapshot of a view to an email"?
