Parent values not been calculated based on childrenvalues

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are workin in BPC 7.5 NW SP05 and getting the following issue.

In a user defined dimension, where a hierrachy has been created using PARENTH1 property, base level members have values that can be retrieved with EVDRE reports.

However, when using those same evdre reports and selecting the corresponding parent memebr related to the base level one where data has been stored, no values are shown, the calculated members (parent) have 0 value and the base level members as well are shown as 0 values.

CALC property seems to have been properly generated in the dimension.

Thanks in advance

Hi

We are having exactly the same issue in BPC 7.5 SP8.

It happens when a dimension is populated using /CPMB/IMPORT_MASTER and when using the BPC Admin module 'Process Dimension'.

Having the CALC flag set as N for a parent member means that EVDRE returns no information for these members.

SAP are currently working on a fix for this issue.

In the meantime we set the CALC flag using RSA1/maintain master data. Then in Admin 'Refresh dimension members' and then in BPC for Excel 'Refresh Dimension members'. It is a pain, but at least we can keep reports working and continue with the implementation.

Hi,

Please check in RSA1 whether you have the correct data in the base level members. Make sure there is nothing for the parent level members in RSA1. Ensure that the hierarchy is properly defined. And then process the dimension.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Are you trying to import data or transfer data from BI. Incase you are uploading data from BI, then you need to check if data has been transported correctly. Incase, you are trying to load flatfile thru DM packages then you need to check if transformation files and conversion files have been maintained correctly.

If you are entering thru input schedules, then once the data is properly sent, it must be displayed in reports automatically.

You also check you control panel, what membersets you have selected and the settings thereon.

Hope this helps.

Rgds,
