How to register CDFs :


We got many string functions in new version of EPM but still for this post I will be taking String CDFs as an example. You can find String CDFs in Oracle's Sample Code. Please download them from below location:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/samplecode/essbase-sample-522117.html



Navigate to the following location, and if its 11.1.2.x you will get only one .jar there.

Copy following files from extracted String folder to above location



Now log into EAS Console, go to Maxl Script Editor, Navigate the register function script and Execute RegisterStringFunctions.msh to register the functions.

For me it didn’t run for the first time so I have copied CDF_String.jar  to below location as well:






It will prompt for setting few user variables please set the value for them.


To check if the functions are registered successfully: In EAS Console Right click on the servername->Edit->Functions and you will get the following:



Now just restart Essbase and check if the functions are working fine.

Note: Here are the things you can find in the read me:
1 - Copy the JAR file or files and any related files like properties files to the Essbase server in the directory.
$HYPERION_HOME /products/Essbase/EssbaseServer/java/udf
2 - Modify the file udf.policy and grant the appropriate permissions if needed.
$HYPERION_HOME /products/Essbase/EssbaseServer/java/udf.policy
3 - Register the CDF if necessary (RUNJAVA method does not need to be registered. (registration script is included in the sample)

Multiple Navigation Flows are Active

Image
We have witnessed an issue where application migration or sometimes service restart in PBCS/EPBCS activates multiple navigation flows.  If multiple navigation flows are active you wont be able make changes in any of them, because in order to make change in navigation flow you have to make it inactive. Typically you may end up in following situation:  Solution is pretty simple: 1. Create a copy of any of the existing navigation flow:  2. Give it any desired name:  3. Now, you will see one additional navigation flow, with inactive status: 4.  Make it active: 5.  At this point of time you will have one active navigation flow and two inactive  6. Select the additional navigation flow you have created and delete it  7. Now you are back in business: Rahul S.
