There are no less than three blog posts about running a batch script from Workspace floating around the internet. I believe the first originated from Celvin here. While this method works great for executing a batch, you are still stuck with a batch. Not only that, but if you update that batch, you have to…
If you attended my recent presentation at Kscope18, I covered this topic and provided a live demonstration of MDXDataCopy. MDXDataCopy provides an excellent method for creating functionality similar to that of Smart Push in PBCS. While my presentation has all of the code that you need to get started, not everyone likes getting things like…
If you are 11.1.2.4 and you use ASO Plan Types, you may be aware of a bug that prevents drill-through from working properly. Essentially, I can define drill-through in BSO and everything works fine, but ASO just doesn’t work.

Someone asked me today…how do I easily delete Plan Type in Hyperion Planning. I thought to myself…why would they ask that? In 11.1.2.3 they added a cool new Plan Type Manager that allows you to add, delete, and rename Plan Types. But hey, I’ll fire up Planning and take some screenshots. First, let’s look at…

The main benefit of dynamic members is to give the end-user the ability to add (or remove) their own members. But, if they have to go to the…
Now that I have my Rapid Deployment completed, I can start to use some of the new features in 11.1.2.4. Today we will focus on the new ability to create dynamic members in Planning. Now, I know what you are thinking, “We can already do that in 11.1.2.3.” And to a point you would be…
So you finally get everything working on your shiny new 11.1.2.4 Rapid Deployment and now its time to finally take a look at Planning. The problem is, we don’t have an app. The even bigger problem (for me and anyone else used to SQL Server) is that we don’t even have a data source for…
So 11.1.2.4 just came out and you are thinking to yourself…I bet that’s cool. Well, there’s only one way to find out. Set it up! In this post we’ll go through the absolute quickest way to start playing with 11.1.2.4 in your very own virtual machine. So what’s the fastest way (not necessarily the best…but…
