Planning Analytics - Refresh Attribute Hierarchies

Post by RSK »

Hi,

I'm just messing around with creating Attribute based hierarchies in PAw.

From what I understand so far any changes in dimensional structure and/or changes in attribute values will not automatically refresh the attribute hierarchy.

Is there a command that can be run via TI to do this?

Thanks

A combination of the functions HierarchyDestroy and CreateHierarchyByAttribute could be useful.
But I haven't tested what happens if you use the hierarchy in say a view, you destroy it, then recreate.
If the view appears to be broken, then please post back.

I'll take a look further Wim.

You would have thought IBM would have considered making this a bit easier than having to manually create TI's yourself especially when they are driving the user via GUI to create them in the first place.

Having an automated process for this doesn't sell software. Having the attribute-based hierarchies in an easy to demo web tool does. Simple as that. I'm sure they'll eventually get around to it if they can focus on day-to-day PA functionality instead wasting all their time trying to get everyone to move to the "IBM Cloud".
