Re: Running a new blank unsaved TI... it executes a different TI

My Perspectives forces a save first (PA2.0.1) Architect gives same error. Can only recommend that you save your process then run - without saving, the objects are probably not registered opening up a slew of possible issues. That's why I never encountered that issue because I never tried to run an ...

Re: Could not create dynamic subset

That is what I exactly said :) When Creating Temp Subsets, the DimName argument should be placed in 4th place, Like in your third example: SubsetCreatebyMDX( sSubName, sMDX, bTemporary, sDimName ); I interpreted your answer as saying that sDimName had to be the 4th argument. That is, I thought you ...

Re: Could not create dynamic subset

DimName argument is also the approach that I have used for some time to prevent empty set errors. Still works, but the DimName has to be the 4th Argument Not quite true. The bTemporary flag is optional. If creating a temporary subset then the flag must be the 3rd argument and the optional dimension...

Re: Could not create dynamic subset

I use a different approach:

SubsetCreatebyMDX(sSubsetName,sMDX,sDimName);

So if you provide The name of dimension as a third parameter, then TM1 will not throw an error if MDX returns empty subset

Re: Security Mode 5 with TM1 Native Groups

My memory may be a little rusty here, but aren't you able to add clients from the Cients/Groups screen when you're connected via CAM? The BI user selection window pops up, search for the users in the desired AD and add them to the TM1 Clients. Now all that's left is to set any group assignments (li...

but the problem is that Active Directory User does not show until the Users signs in in TM1 That is correct and it is one of the limitations of what you are proposing.

My requirement is to allow a super user (through a user interface/websheet) to delegate users to do something on some other user behalf(basically replicate the access of another user when a user is absent).

Security Mode 5 with TM1 Native Groups

Hi guys, When you use Security Mode=5, is it a good idea to have all groups coming from Cognos BI/Active DIrectory? I need to be able to have some native TM1 Groups and use them for Data Security. I need to have a group for each branch ( I have Branch Dimension) and assign Active Directory Users (wh...

You are applying your filter in the ElementAttributes cube (Your Base MDX is {[}ElementAttributes_Location].[Country Code]} ). I don't think this makes sense Can you provide the MDX expression with Hardcoded Version and Unit, and then we can help you modify it so it uses the Version and Unit selecte...

You can use the }ElementATtributes_dimName cube in your filter. Can you check if MDX below will give you want you want?

Is this behavior in TM1Web or Perspectives?

Also, are they ruled cells, excel formulas, or TM1 Consolidations?

Re: DimensionSecurity Rules not being fired

Thank you, good suggestion

I actually gave up on that Rule so I write a process to populate the }DimensionSecurity cube, so far has not given any issues but for such a simple Rule, I had to complicate little bit my model just because the Rule was not doing what it is supposed to do.
