Hello Guys,

I have created a TI Process using bedrock logic i am able to create views and it loads the string data from source elements to target elements but it is not loading the numeric data for the first run. If i update any data even in string cells for the next run of TI it is not even copying string data to target elements. I have both string and numeric data in my cube. I have attached my TI code. Please suggest me like where i am going wrong.

The process has a debug switch as one of its parameters. Use it and you're likely to get some information on what's going on. I doubt anyone will have the time and resolve to go through each line of that TI and try and figure out what it might be doing, especially since you haven't told us anything about your model, which means it's impossible to tell which conditions are being triggered among the dozens of IF statements.

On a separate note, I would like to draw your attention to the BedrockTM1.org copyright and licence notes:

HI I am Just using that bedrock code as reference, i have a developed my own code. i am not publishing any original code of it. i have published an altered one which i wrote based on our requirement

Actually In my model i have to load data within a single dimension from one element to another element , i have a combination of two dimension's version and customer dimensions, in which data needs to be loaded from one dimension to other i.e customer to customer and version to version, i am passing the customer and version from control cubes as parameters. i have written a loop such that based on the selection of elements in dimensions from control cubes it has to write data in to target elements.

I have to load data from my source customer to multiple target customers, similarly from source version to multiple target versions.I have a maximum of 50 target customers and 10 target versions. I am loading the data with customer and version combination. I have built lookup cube with pick list in order to pass parameters dynamically into my TI process.

As per your previous post ,You are doing the same thing,I guess,It is just that you have mixed data in the form of string and numeric.Have you checked the link I have mentioned earlier ,Just incoporate that in your code.Thanks

Hi Abdul ,

If( nDimensionCount = 2 );
If( CellIsUpdateable( pCube, v1, v2 ) = 1 );
DimType = DType( sDim2, v2 );

If( DimType @= 'S' );
CellPutS( v3, pCube, v1, v2 );
Else;
CellPutN( Numbr( v3 ), pCube, v1, v2 );
ENDIF;

I am using both CellPutS and CellPutN in my code still it failing to write numeric values into target cells.

You really need to add a few AsciiOutput statements around your IFs to see what exactly is going on and which sections of your code get executed. No one here is able to execute every branch of your algorithm in their head under every possible condition.

The code snippet you've just posted does not exist in the process code you posted earlier. Settle on one version and then just debug it (using AsciiOutput) to see which of your assumptions are wrong - it could be that the element types are not what you think they are or that the source view is set up wrong or some entirely different problem.

I am posting this here because it may be related to aravind's problem.

I have an issue which is outlined in the attached document. This problem came to light when I tried to run a process to copy values from one cube to another. Everything worked OK, both string and numeric values copied over except for one numeric element which did not post any values. When investigating the problem I narrowed it down as explained in the attached document.

cheers, Mark

If you don't see values in a rule-calculated element when you suppress zeros it means the element has not been fed properly. Un-suppress and then right-click on one of the cells that contains the value that disappears when you suppress and then choose Check Feeders. If it says "Not Fed" then that's the problem.

Posted: **Mon Oct 03, 2016 3:05 pm**

You are spot on Tomok, these cells are not fed. I did actually suspect this myself (honest).

Now you may start ranting at me when I say this but because I don't actually need Grade Standard Hours to be fed (because it doesn't need to be consolidated) I ignored it when writing the feeders.

Is this bad practice and will not feeding it make my cube slower?

regards, Mark

No, it's not bad practice to skip feeding an element, at least IMO. However, not doing so means the element will not consolidate AND it will disappear when you zero suppress.

Not at all. Underfeeding by itself cannot make a cube slower - if anything, it will be faster. It can however lead to incorrect results or zero suppression problems - sometimes these can be acceptable or worked around and sometimes they cannot.

Also, I would like to mention one additional circumstance where rule calculations might not work. If you do a DimensionElementInsertDirect without recompiling the dimension with DimensionUpdateDirect, a rule can fail to attach to the new element.

Posted: **Mon Oct 03, 2016 3:36 pm**

Thanks for the responses and the advice. I will leave unfed because as things stand I don't need to feed it and everything appears to be working correctly!

I will bold this in the design document

Hi Guys,

I was able to load both String and Numeric data now but i have a problem in creating Subset with multiple elements as i am using while loop it is taking the last element in the control cube . I need subset which has multiple elements being included . Please find the attached document and suggest me like where i am missing.

Posted: **Wed Oct 05, 2016 1:46 pm**

If( ViewExists( pCube, cTempViewFrom ) = 1 );

ViewDestroy( pCube, cTempViewFrom );
EndIf;
ViewCreate( pCube, cTempViewFrom );

If( SubsetExists( pDimension, cTempSubFrom ) = 1 );
SubsetDeleteAllElements( pDimension, cTempSubFrom );
Else;
SubsetCreate( pDimension, cTempSubFrom );
EndIf;
SubsetElementInsert( pDimension, cTempSubFrom, pSourceCustomer, i );
ViewSubsetAssign( pCube, cTempViewFrom, pDimension, cTempSubFrom );

Actually in the above code when i am trying to create the view it is throwing the below error ;

Position of elements exceeds the number of elements in subset + 1.

Change the below line:

Code: Select all

SubsetElementInsert( pDimension, cTempSubFrom, pSourceCustomer, i );

to this:

Code: Select all

SubsetElementInsert( pDimension, cTempSubFrom, pSourceCustomer, 1 );

The error is due to the fact that you are only inserting those elements into the subset that meet certain criteria, so unless all of the elements in the dimension meet these criteria you will have fewer elements in the subset than in the dimension and so variable i will be outside of the correct range of the subset's index.

It would also be very kind of you to share with us how you solved your first problem. It could help someone else, you know.

Abdul,

Intially i was using SubsetElementInsert( pDimension, cTempSubFrom, pSourceCustomer, 1 );

but i have multiple source customers and multiple target customers being selected in the control cube , so i need multiple elements to be added in my subset. when i use the above code it is creating the subset with the last element selected in the control which does not fit our requirement. suggest me like based on the loop it should create a subset which includes multiple elements included in my subset so that in my view i can see all the elements selected in my control cube.

I think you have me confused with someone else.

You will need a WHILE loop that will cycle through something (a subset, a dimension etc.) that will allow you to execute SubsetElementInsert multiple times. The last parameter for this function is the location where you want to insert the element - it doesn't magically insert multiple elements for you, so I have no idea why you would expect that to happen.

Abdul,

I have while loop in my code u can see in my attached code, still i am facing the issue.
