EPM Add-in update error - Only part of a ReadProcessMemory completed

July 14, 2015, 1:11 am

Hello,

 

I have faced an error during update of SAP EPM Add-in 10.0 SP20 into SP22. The error message is - Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed.

 

I have downloaded an update from SMP, extracted it into SAP BPC 10.1 MS Installation folder, opened SAP BPC Server Management application and in Client Options have enabled the update. Also I have filled in an Admin credentials in the same Client Options window.

 

When an end user opens EPM Add-in he/she is forced to automatically update the software. During the first step an update is successfully downloaded but when we start the installation an error (Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed) is displayed. After pressing OK the window closes and the software is not updated.

 

Then as a workaround we have executed an update MSP executable directly on the client computer and it finished successfully. The EPM Add-in was successfully updated.

 

The described problem is valid both for ordinary end users and admins.

 

Any thoughts on this problem?

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Best regards,

Donatas

Error in 10.1 admin

Hi,

 

I have a BPC 10.1 MS installation on a virtual server with Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise OS and SQL 2008 R2 as the database. Whenever I try to change or add a remark in a business rule I get an error message:

It makes no difference which rule or which environment, it happens in all.

 

I had a look at the Log table in SQL and got this:

How to prevent BPC10 comments from turing into #RFR on log-on?

July 1, 2015, 5:04 pm

Dear BPC Experts,

 

We use quite a lot of comments in our work in the SAP BPC system. We have just upgraded from BPC7.5 to BPC10 (Microsoft version).

 

I am having some issues with comments in BPC10 (using EMPCommentFullContex function to retrieve comments sent to database).

 

Here are the symptoms:

  • Refresh workbook in BPC10 - everything refreshed including comments.
  • Saved the Excel file.
  • Log-off EPM.
  • Open the saved file - comments are still there and all look fine...
  • Log-on to EPM - now all comments will change into #RFR (however, the other EPM functions, e.g., EPMMemberProperty remained OK!)
  • I can refresh Workbook again and the #RFR will be refreshed and replaced with comments - but if I have many sheets, it takes time to do the refreshing every time I log-on...

 

I have tried to save the file in "OffLine Mode" too, but once I log-on to EPM, I will have the same #RFR problem.

 

It seems to me that EPMCommentFullContext is particularly "volatile" compared to other EPM functions.

 

I also tried the BPC7.5 EVCGT function in BPC10 (it still works) but I got the same results (#RFRs upon log-on)

 

In BPC7.5, I did NOT have this issue. Comments seemed to stay fine (after file open and then log-on)...

 

Note if I do not log-off, opening a saved file with comments is OK (comments stayed). However, I normally log-off by the end of the day.

 

My questions: 

 

  1. Has anyone encountered similar behavior in BPC10 comments?  If so do you have a solution?
  2. Is there any settings/options (e.g., user options, sheet options, etc.) that I can use to prevent comments from turning into #RFR?  (the Excel file should do nothing until I ask it to refresh or expand, right?). Why would BPC do something I did not ask it to do ?

 

Thank you very much for your time and attention!

BPC10 ExpandActiveWorkBook API seemed Unreliable. Any fixes?

Dear BPC Experts,

 

We have recently upgraded from BPC7.5 to BPC10. We are using SP17 right now.

 

We have invested several years in developing EVDRE reports (many of them) in the BPC7 environment and hence we are trying to make use of many of the EVDRE templates in BPC10.

 

In BPC10, you have to go to an EVDRE sheet before the "Expand" menu become available (what a pain!), I have written an Excel macro that made use of the EPM API to "Expand Active Workbook" by clicking a button. Here is the code:

 

'//////////////

 

Public EPMApi as New FPMXLClient.EPMAddInAutomation

 

Sub ExpandActiveWorkbook ()

     EPMApi.ExpandActiveWorkbook

End Sub

 

'///////////

 

The code seems to work most of time... However, in a few occasions (seems pretty random!), I noted that one or two sheets did not get expanded or refreshed (or may have gotten refreshed but data was not downloaded). This is not good as I have >40 sheets in a file! Imagine the tasks of having to check every sheet just to make sure data is downloaded properly after expanding or refreshing? Note in BPC7.5, the macros (based on MNU_ETOOLS_xxxx)  worked great (never had any issues).   

 

I wonder if anyone has encountered similar issues (using VBA code or just Expand Workbook from the EPM menu bar)?

 

In addition, I wonder if anyone has a fix to make ExpandActiveWorkbook run reliably (any options to set? different expand/refresh commands, etc.).

 

Thank you very much for your insights and help in advance!

BPC10 MS: BPC Control Flows erroneous after Import to BI Development studio

Hi,

 

i have copied the BPCTask*.dll files from the BPC10 application server to the the MSSQL 2008 R2 Server in order to use them in an SSIS Package.

The corresponding control flows have been activated in the MSSQL Server BI Development Studio and they - with a generic icon - in my toolbox (see image cf1.png and cf2.png)

 

However i get this error message, if i try to pull the BPC Task Admin into the SSIS Package:

Failed to create the task.

After removing the dlls and coping them again, restarting the BI Development Studio and trying different places to copy the dlls to I have no further ideas on what to try in order to use the BPC Control Flows.

 

Can anyone help me out?

 

Best regards and many thank,

Marco

 

PS.: I followed these instructions: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75/helpdata/en/07/30f30b58f145818861803b2f82ec86/content.htm

However It seems that just creating the SSIS task on the application server and saving it on the database server (in order to run it as a scheduled job) does not suffice. Due to my collegues experience the control-flow dlls have to be available on the DB-Server, too (which is, what I'm trying to achieve).

SAP BPC MS cube contains no measure data

Hello,

 

Using SAP BPC 10.1 MS EPM Add-in I have written some measure data into the Planning system's database. I can see those numbers in the Planning system's Fact, Fact2 and WB tables but unfortunately those number aren't reflected in the corresponding Planning system's OLAP cube. I've tried to retrieve data from Planning system's OLAP cube using UNX, Excel and even directly via SQL Server Management Console but all the measures in this OLAP cube displays NULL.

 

Why my measures aren't populated into the OLAP cube? Should I configure something additionally?

 

Thank you in advance.

BPC MS 7.5 to 10.0 migration - can't see environment

We're starting the process of migrating to version 10 but can't see the environment after the backup/restore.

 

I can see EnvironmentShell and if I create a new Environment I can see that but I can't see the restored appset/Environment.

 

We also tried creating an environment and restoring on top of that which allowed me to see the Environment and connect to it through Excel but not through admin.

 

I tried reviewing the security setup and it appears our systemadmin access converted with all the tasks associated with the default admins.

 

Feels like we're missing something obvious but we can't seem to figure it out.

 

Thanks,

HCM Planning in BPC

August 4, 2015, 3:17 pm

A few years ago we rolled out a very basic solution to allow our Finance folks to plan for headcount. They created their own templates and worked with business owners for HCM planning which includes salary, taxes, medical, etc to comprise a fully burdened expense for each employee. It works great except that the input templates and reports are full of very complex Excel formulas which determine the tax amounts based on rates and currency. This slows down the template considerably and periodically crashes the file. We have only a few hundred employees so the file isn't huge. Can anyone give me some suggestions on the best approach to calculating the fully burdened HCM cost for each employee without heavy use of Excel?
