Copy data from one element to all other elements with TI

[karthik.g]

Hi Experts,

Could anyone please let me know the solution to copy the data from one element to all the elements in the same cube using TI process?

(my req is i have data for one combination in Jan month and i need to copy the same data to rest of the months from feb to dec.) the TI process should do the same process for all the elements in all the dimensions.

Thanks in Advance!!
Karths

Hi Abdul,

I'm getting Variable undefined and syntax errors while saving the code. just FYI i have a space in my measure dimension name and all my dimensions names are starting with numbers, the procedure i followed is taken the source view and string as variable type and other for contents tab. i didn't map the variables to my dimensions and i directly written the below code in data tab.

IF(CELLISUPDATEABLE(vCubeName,5Versions,2Divisions,3Employees,2Projects,2CostCenters,4Periods36,mEmployee Info)=1);
IF(VALUE_IS_STRING=0);
CELLPUTN(NValue,vCubeName,5Versions,2Divisions,3Employees,2Projects,2CostCenters,4Periods36,mEmployee Info);
ELSE;
CELLPUTS(SValue,vCubeName,5Versions,2Divisions,3Employees,2Projects,2CostCenters,4Periods36,mEmployee Info);
ENDIF;
ENDIF;


Could any one please advise?

Thanks,
Karthik

Give your variables good names, without spaces and do not use reserved functions/words.
Then you can use the variables in the Data tab without any issue.

Hi Wim,

Thanks for the advise. i have renamed the variables and changed the data code accordingly. Now the process is executing without any errors but data is not getting copied. I would like to highlight on preview tab. When i select my source view i could see the periods dimension is showing consolidated element CY Total instead of Jan-2014 which contains data and memployee info which is my measure dimensionis showing first element inside it rather showing the data and finally Value column is displaying empty

Data tab code:

IF(CELLISUPDATEABLE(vCubeName,vVersions,vDivisions,vEmployees,vProjects,vCostCenters,vPeriods,vmEmployeeinfo)=1);
IF(VALUE_IS_STRING=0);
CELLPUTN(NValue,vCubeName,vVersions,vDivisions,vEmployees,vProjects,vCostCenters,vPeriods,vmEmployeeinfo);
ELSE;
CELLPUTS(SValue,vCubeName,vVersions,vDivisions,vEmployees,vProjects,vCostCenters,vPeriods,vmEmployeeinfo);
ENDIF;
ENDIF;

Thanks,
Karthik

Do you script the creation of the view in the Prolog tab (coding), or do you select the view from the cube (the view physically exists)?
Make sure your data source contains the correct data, i.e. all lowest-level data (most probably).

Thanks Wim. It worked now.

What was the issue / what did you change to make it work?

Hi,

Requirement is, there is data for one month and I need to copy the same data to remaining months. So, here is the approach I followed.

1) created a view contains the data with all the leaf level elements and taken the view as source.

2) updated all the variable as strings types and in the contents selected as others but for the Value variable defined as data.

3) In the advanced, Prolog tab : vCubeName= mycubename;

4) Below is the code in Data tab:

#vMonth is my subset contains only months for 2014 year.

i=2;

While(i <= 13);

vMonth=SUBSETGETELEMENTNAME('4periods36','periodsubset',i);

IF(CELLISUPDATEABLE(vCubeName,V1,V2,V3,V4,V5,vMonth,V7)=1);
IF(VALUE_IS_STRING=0);
CELLPUTN(NValue,vCubeName,V1,V2,V3,V4,V5,vMonth,V7);
ELSE;
CELLPUTS(SValue,vCubeName,V1,V2,V3,V4,V5,vMonth,V7);
ENDIF;
ENDIF;

i=i+1;

end;

After executing this data from one month is copying to all the months in the 2014 year.

Wim, if you think if I can do the same in a better way, it would be more helpful for me.

Thanks,
Karthik

4periods36 is a strange name for a dimension. And why don't you choose good variable names instead of V1, V2, V3, ...

For the rest, the process is okay although I would avoid the TI wizard (with the variable marked as Other).

Ok. Actually periods dimension is for 3 years and 4 is for naming convention. that's why named so.
I think I need to change my TI code again. 

Wim, Do you have any idea like how to implement the same functionality that the data should copy to one month in an year and there after, it should copy the data from current month to rest all months except previous months.(It should not copy data to previous months)

That's what your process does, isn't it?

I think the op means it currently copies for the rest of the current year but not future years.

If that is the case you can just loop from current month using a "next month" attribute until the "next month" attribute is blank.

No Wim. I loaded the values to Jan and copying the values till dec for current year. If i increase the value in While(i <= 39) loop in above code then the values are copying to the rest of the years but i found that string values are copying to consolidated elements. which ideally it should not.

Do you happen to know the DTYPE function? It can test for, for example, S type elements and C type elements.
