  Share

Rules gives the wings to HFM application and are incredibly powerful & flexible way to add calculations t
What is a Rule?
Ans: Rules are Combination of Objects & Functions/Methods 
                             
        
Hs is the namespace, Entity is the object, DefCurrency is the function, and E#SpecificEntity is the argume

We have 9 main Subroutines in Rules & under each Sub routine there are member of Functions to simpli
# We load all rules in single file as there is only replace option available and No merge option.
# Rules start with "SUB" and ends with "ENDSUB"

9 Rules are:
1. Calculation -------------------HS.Exp
2. Translation -------------------HS.Trans
3. Consolidation -------------------Call HS.Con
4. Allocation -------------------Call HS.Alloc
5. Input -------------------HS.Input
6. NoInput -------------------HS.NoInput
7. DynamicCalculation -------------------HS.Dynamic
8. TransactionsICP -------------------HS.SupportTran
9. EquityPickup ------------------- HS.PEPU
What is HS. ?
HS. = Hyperion Solution
HFM Rules
There are 2 main Functions
1. Load to the Database ---- HS.Exp
2. Retrieve from the Database-------HS.GetCell

List of Dimensions Valid on both the sides of the equation.

Data is written only to the base level elements for the following dimensions:
- Account
- ICP
- Custom1
- Custom2
- Custom3
- Custom4    So only base members on the left hand side right hand side top level

Formatting the rules also means using the underscore (_) and colon (:) symbols. When using the undersc
StrAccount = HS.GetCell ("A#7999.C1#Sales") + _
HS.GetCell ("A#7999.C1#Marketing")

The colon allows you to combine two lines. For example:

strSalesAccount = "A#7999.C1#Sales" : strMktAccount = "A#7999.C1#Marketing"

Left hand side drives the equation

             HS.Exp "A#Account3.C1#Chips = A#Account4"

HS.Exp "A#Account3.C1#Olap = A#Account4"
                                          

Same formulae Reversed

HS.Exp "A#Account3 = A#Account4.C1#Chips"
HS.Exp "A#Account3 = A#Account4.C1#Olap"
