TM1 Forum

Hi Experts,

In relation to this post. http://www.tm1forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7975,

I just discovered that all scripts I inserted to some }tp processes are being overwritten with the TM1's original scripts after I ...

1. Restart the TM1 Application Server
2. Go to the TM1 Applications portal (http://<host>:9510/pmpsvc/applications.jsp) as user with TM1 Admin rights.

I thought it was }tp_set_system_config that does it, but even the codes and comments I inserted in it are gone after I do those actions.

Does anyone have an idea how to disable it?

If there's none, I think it's useless in my case to do it since restarting the Application server is inevitable and the amount of processes I execute inside this }tp processes is huge. And therefore it isn't advisable at all to insert codes inside these }tp processes.

Am I missing something guys? BTW, I'm using version 10.1.1

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Just an idea. Would it be possible to add a websheet to the Application,
and that websheet contains Action buttons that execute 1 or more of your custom TI processes.

Hi Wim. Thanks.

That's considerable. The thing is, that will be additional task for users.

If this keeps on resetting, I assume no }tp process can be inserted with new script, at all.

There's a log though to look what }tp process did just finish. But I don't think there's a log for the ReturnedValue of that process. And if there really is, I am gonna make additional process to check that log periodically (per minute or per 30 sec, or what.). I am not sure about that work-around if that's possible.

And actually, I commented parts of TM1's default scripts as per requirement purposes.

I will probably sound like a broken record on this one but for what it's worth I would say that "Contributor/TM1 Applications" are designed to suit some quite specific purposes and in some situations they are suitable however when you start getting into a position where you need to change the built in processes and essentially move "outside" the borders of the tool... it is perhaps worth considering just creating your own "workflow" style application using TM1 Web and some custom built TI Processes and "security cubes". It may feel like more work to start with but if you design it well then you can pretty much guarantee it will save you work in the long run and you can design it to keep the effort required by your end users to a minimum.
