Hyperion FDMEE features

Maximize FDMEE features with Hyperion Essbase and Planning

applications Calc Scripts

Created By: Senthilnathan Subbaiyan

Purpose:

When loading data to Oracle Essbase or Oracle Hyperion Planning we can the trigger the
Essbase calculation scripts (.csc file) using FDMEE.

Calculation scripts are defined in Essbase and Planning.

We can parameterize script so that you can specify a parameter for each script. Pass the
parameters from FDMEE as runtime variable
Assign scripts to run before or after the data load.
Assign a scope of calc scripts. The scope can be at the Application, Category, Location, and
Data Rule level.

Note: If scripts are assigned at the lowest level, then they take precedence over script at
higher level. Data Rule is the lowest level and Application is the highest level. Only scripts at
one level are executed

FDMEE FDMEE can execute calcs:

1. Before the data load Clear

2. After the data load Calculation/Aggregation
3. Before the Check step Calculation/Aggregation
4. After the Check step Clear/Calculation/Aggregation

Calc scripts can be defined Globally

1. calc runs for every integration associated with the target app Location
2. calc runs for a specific location Data Load Rule
3. calc runs for a specific data load rule Category
4. calc runs for specific FDMEE category Leveraging RTSV Calcs

11. Click to add the parameters for the calculation script.

12. In Script Scope, select the scope of applicability,

Note that scripts assigned at the lowest level take precedence over scripts at higher level.

Available scopes in order of highest scope to lowest are:

Application (default scope)

Category
Location
Data Rule
13. In Scope Entity, select the specific value associated with the script scope.

 For example, if the script scope is "Location," select the location associated with the
application.

The Scope Entity is disabled for Application Script Scope.

14. In Event, select the event that executes the calculation script.

Available events:

Before Data Load

After Data Load
Before Check
After Check

You can see the menu / links highlighted below for setup

Essbase calc Script:

Create a calc script in Essbase and attach to the outline.

Run the data load rule for the location and target which Essbase calc is attached.

After successful execution of data load rule, open the FDME process log and check the status

Go to the Essbase cube and validate the data.
