Re: Specific suppression of TM1.Comm.SSL log entries

I'm glad that there is a way to suppress these messages (I have a customer who's getting currently tons of these messages), but does anyone know what's causing the (excessive amount) of these SSL write error messages? Michel Hi Michel, I've seen massive amount of these entries with AuditLogOn=T bes...

Re: Attribute as a Feeder !!!

you need to write the feeder in your attribute cube: '}ElementAttributes_Ess_Entities'

the feeder would then look like - depending on the order of your dimensions in the target cube:
['Rate'] => DB(targetcube,dim1, dim2,..., !Ess_Entities);

Re: TM1 Cube Package-Report development Issue

with your package you are connecting to a certain TM1 cube, not a certain view with zero suppression turned on or off. Cognos BI is flattening the cube and then putting it together again in the frontend. Cognos BI is even using a different MDX than TM1. If you need zero suppression this is out of th...

Hi Benoit,
if it is a mere find/replace in formulas issue in Excel it can be solved with some VBA. I could program it on Monday if you want. Please confirm.

Re: Access TM1 Cubes from a other MDX Client Tool

I wouldn't take for granted what SAP-(BO) pretends to deliver. BO had an interface to connect to AS2000 cubes in the past but it couldn't even read calculated members.... As for Microsoft I liked the OLE interface between SSAS and SSRS very much because it is so transparent. This may be working for ...

Re: While Loop Parent Counts with Component Delete

The issue I have is that when you delete an element from a consolidation then the element no longer has the same number of parents. During the while loop you are looking at the parent index which is changed if you delete the element from a consolidation. Is this a true statement? Yes, this is corre...

You may introduce two attributes for your division dimension. 'currency' (text) and 'exchange' (num), then input currencies and exchange rates in the attribute cube. You rule may look like the one below for all currencies except EUR: ['value', 'EUR'] = N: IF(DB('}ElementAttributes_BMR Sales - Divisi...

Re: TM1Member null values

it seems that the filter() function requires a static value on the right side of the comparison equation. You may need an alternative approach using attributes. Since you're already importing your valid [template_d] members into a cube, you could do a check against your "CES-HealthCareTemplates...

Re: Simple Star Schema Question re: nested facts

From SSAS 2005 onwards it is possible to create a cube with several measure groups and varying dimensionality based on one fact table each. The Adventure Works example is very good in this context and I suppose it comes close to your requirements.
