Re: Dynamic Action Button

Since you are using the Excel add-in, the action button parameter references can also point to a cell in the workbook, instead of a hard-coded value. The cell holding the parameter value can be derived by manual input, any relevant formula in Excel, or it can reference a cube value via a DBRW formul...

Re: Help on Creating a new landscape

The Web Server (IBM Planning Analytics Spreadsheet Services) is optional. If you are going to publish all your reports either in PAW or PAFE then you don't need TM1Web.

Re: CellPutN across the intersection of cube cells at once

Hi, I have 10 cubes, each with a common dimension but varying in the number of dimensions from 4 to 12. When a new element is added to the common dimension, I want to assign a value of 1 to a specific measure element (which is available in all the measure dimensions). Is there a function (no rule, ...

Re: CubeSecurity and ProcessSecurity

Hi! I have a user who has permissions to processes Y, but not to a cube named X. The Y process has a cellputs('text','X cube','dim1','dim2') command that it can run, so it can essentially write a cube that it doesn't have rights to. Is that OK? How could this be avoided? Thanks in advance! Process ...

Re: Calculation inconsistency after using a DB

Jorge, the bottom line is this has been the behavior in TM1 since pretty much when the tool was first created. It was initially built for accounting-related apps and this is not normally an issue for budgeting and planning. If you just explain to your users that this is a limitation in the tool, tha...

Do you know of a way of establishing when a chore might have been activated/de-acticated?

That event should be recorded in the tm1server.log file.

The only issue you'll encounter if you don't feed it would be possible zero-suppression of that measure whenever someone was browsing the Labor cube. It's really easy to get around that problems with a few reporting tr...
