TM1 9.4 and Workflow 9.4.1

[hpark]

Hi,
I am testing this Workflow(AKA Planning Manager??)
Anyway, after installation, when I open Excel and select TM1 Workflow -> Admin(as manual indicated), the error message shows up:

Compile Error in hidden module : frmTaskActions

Does anyone know what casues this error?

I was testing it on dev server a month ago and it was working fine. Then I stopped testing it. Today I went back to the dev server, and it doesn't work anymore. I tried complete uninstall and reinstall everything(TM1 Server, TM1 Client, Workflow, Excel)
It still gives me the same error.

Any thought would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Has your excel version been updated in any way?

[hpark]

Thank you, Jim, for the reply.

I re-installed Office 2003 Pro with Complete option.
Is there any excel patch I have to install?

[jim wood]

I'm not sure if a sepcific patch will solve your issue. I'm just trying to identify any other possible areas of change. Have you tried running Microsoft Update to update your Excel install. It may not help but it is worth a try,

Jim.

Compile Error in hidden module : frmTaskActions

Does anyone know what casues this error?

I've never used Workflow, but I think that this one may warrant a support request. A compile error will generally come from one of two things:
- Invalid VBA code. Unlikely in itself, since AFAIK the VBA6 libraries haven't been significantly changed in yonks so if that was the problem it wouldn't have worked in the past either; or
- An invalid external (library) reference. Granted this struck me as unlikely since you reinstalled everything, but honestly it's the only thing I can think of. It's possible that a library that the add-in is dependent on either didn't install properly or didn't register properly.

Rather than groping around in the dark it may be better to raise a support request describing the symptoms and giving the version number of both Workflow and Excel, and ask whether there are any dependencies in the code in that module that you should be looking for.

But I do agree with Jim; make sure that all updates for Excel have been installed first, and that you're running with the latest SP for your version.

Uninstall the MS security patch introduced by KB960715 (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/securi ... 60715.mspx) and you will be fine. However if you have auto update turned on, this patch will get install again and you will be backed to square one.

It's MS problem/contraint/restriction, whatever they call it.

old.. but

I dont have that KB patch, i looked partially on IBM site (i am still waiting for my code) and it seems that KB932349 (which i dont have also) is also responsable as probably other KB´s. patches. I really dont know if i have the same trouble because I installed it on 9.1. SP 4 with Applix financial planning 1.3 sp 1, I have a XP Pro SP3.

¿was solved? if automatic updates causes this, is a bit annoying...

thanks amigos.

Hi kangkc,

Thank you so much for your tips.

I have uninstalled KB960715 and it really works well now.

Thanks again and best regards!

No worry.

Just found that MS released another ActiveX Killbits, KB973346. I would try to avoid this till I have time to test it out.

I hit the same error!
After I deleted the KB960715 yesterday , It solved.
But I update KB973525 today , this error come again .And now i can't rollback to make the workflow work . Even if i uninstalled KB973525
Can anyone can help !

I have run into the same error on different machines with excel 2003 and excel 2007. It seems likely to me that it has to do with windows updates as other posters mentioned.

However, if you are just testing workflow it may be worth to wait for 9.5 as workflow is completely redone and at least 'looks' a lot better than in earlier versions. (I have only seen it demo'ed not actually played with it myself yet - it looks a lot like workflow in cognos planning now)

[Jessy]

Come across with the same problem again
While there is no KB960715, I uninstalled KB973346,but it doesn't work
Any ideas?

Only way to get around this is this article:

You will have to edit registry.

Is strange,

Did you close all excel workflow manager sessions, on a better scenario, any excel opened on the server or computer?
