I had to take my mind off the happenings in the world for a bit, and thought what better to do, than code. It’s a terrible time for everyone, and this is just a coping mechanism for me. I hope this series does NOT become a regular feature. As readers may know, I am a……
2/3 of the unlocked cube team was at Kscope19 with 2 awesome sessions… (at least we think so) Maybe next year the full team will be together! (we missed you Pete!) Anyway, during our sessions we were asked if we were going to share the videos we were showing since the pdf you can download……
I’ve always been a big proponent of REST and REST-based integrations as it relates to the EPM stack, or indeed, to any cloud solution. Here is some sample content that illustrates this. When you use the (E)PBCS REST API (or any EPM API, for that matter), one issue that crops up, is how to mask……
Up until last week, clients kept asking me if there was a way to get to the drill through reports without having to leave the excel world. Up until now, most of my clients leveraging Data Management wanting to run a drill through report needed to: find the desired cell to run the drill through……
Last week, Test pods have been gifted with the latest PBCS update. Let’s see what September 2019 brings to PBCS. Welcomed new features: Data Management: Drilling down from Summary members. Before this update drill through via Data Management only supported drill through at level 0. Apparently now we can drill from summary members and Drill is limited……
I thought we’d look at another example of using OIC seamlessly with your EPM cloud integrations. Today, we’ll look at how to “POST” or submit updates to your PBCS application. In this case, we’ll be updating a substitution variable from OIC. The integration setup steps are similar to what we’ve done in previous posts (I……
After creating a new attribute dimension in PBCS/EPBCS, I tried leveraging it in a Business Rule right away but surprisingly the rule wouldn’t validate without throwing the following error “Error:The dimension needs to be a text attribute dimension” Supposedly, the new text attribute dimension isn’t being recognized as a text attribute dimension. It’s not a big issue……
In this post, we will apply the finishing touches to our integration. You can find the earlier parts here and here. One of the things you also need to set up on your integration, is a tracking parameter. This is a mandatory step, and can be done from the Tracking page. I just used the……
This post continues on from an earlier one, which can be found here. From a blank canvas, we can just drag and drop the REST connection from the Invokes palette on the right. On the wizard that opens up, you get the option to specify which REST command you would like to execute. To get substitution variables from……
My last post was almost a year ago. I have been tied up on pretty large projects and never got a chance to find time to share some more insights on the daily issues we may encounter. I have been trying to stay away from the cloud as I felt it wasn’t quite there yet compared to……
