Planning Business Rule - Extracting Descendants of Parents Parent of Share Member

Ashok Kumar RayaMay 9 2014 — edited May 11 2014

Hi,

I am working on a business rule to be executed from a data form in Hyperion Planning Version 11.1.2.1. Part of the functionality of the business rule is to get the parents parent of the shared member.

In entity dimension i have primary hierarchy and alternate hierarchies.

Entity

          Legal Consol (Primary Hierarchy)

          Management Reporting (Alternate Hierarchy)

          UnConsolidated (Alternate Hierarchy)

I have defined a variable vEntity in calc manager and value to that variable will be populated from the data form once the user selects the entity value from the primary hierarchy. I need to come up with the functions combination to get the parents parent of vEntity value from alternate hierarchy Management Reporting.

I tried the following options @IDESCENDANTS(@PARENT("Entity",@SHARE({vEntity}))) and i am getting the following error

'Error:Invalid member name [@PARENT("Entity",@SHARE("10006_1168944"))] Rule

"10006_1168944" is the default value i defined for the variable.

I considered SPARENTVAL but i believe this function returns the value of that parent not the parent member name.

I appreciate your inputs on this.

Thank you

Ashok
