Cleaning Records with script logic QUESTION

[former_member182305]

Hello experts,

I have a problem caused because a template didn't refresh correctly. I haver Records for Entity A in Entity B with Cost Centers of A.

the Dimension Cost Center (CECO) has a property that makes reference to entity.

Here is an example of my records:

As you can see, I have records that must have only in MTYGA with MTYGA Cost Center in Entity CUUWY. I want to set that records with 0 value. For that I wrote the next code to make that record 0 but as you can see, the one that got the 0 value was the correct one:

//SCOPE
*XDIM_MEMBERSET CATEGORIA= Presupuesto
*XDIM_MEMBERSET HOTEL = %HOTEL_SET%
*XDIM_MEMBERSET PERIODO= %PERIODO_SET%
*XDIM_MEMBERSET ZRELACIONCTACEBE= NA_ZREL
*XDIM_MEMBERSET ZSTAGL= NA_ES
*XDIM_MEMBERSET CUENTAS= 0000650082


*SELECT (%CECOS%, ID, CECO, SEGMENT<>%HOTEL% AND CALC=N AND ID<>"NA_CECO")
*SELECT (%CEBES%, ID, CeBe, SEGMENT<>%HOTEL%) AND CALC=N AND ID <> "NA_CeBe")


*FOR %HOTEL%=%HOTEL_SET% //Limpia Hotel seleccionado
	*WHEN CeBe
		*IS %CEBES%
			*REC(EXPRESSION = %VALUE% * 0,CATEGORIA=Presupuesto)
	*ENDWHEN

	*WHEN CECO 
		*IS %CECOS%
			*REC(EXPRESSION = %VALUE% * 0,CATEGORIA=Presupuesto)
	*ENDWHEN
*NEXT

It seems that doesn't work because the 0 value is save in the scoped Entity and not in the wrong one.

Also I tried with other code:

//SCOPE
*XDIM_MEMBERSET CATEGORIA= Presupuesto
*XDIM_MEMBERSET HOTEL = %HOTEL_SET%
*XDIM_MEMBERSET PERIODO= %PERIODO_SET%


	*FOR %HOTEL%=%HOTEL_SET% //Limpia Hotel seleccionado
		      *WHEN CeBe
			 *IS <> "NA_CeBe"
		           *WHEN CeBe.SEGMENT
			      *IS %HOTEL%
				*ELSE
	    *REC(EXPRESSION = %VALUE% * 0,CATEGORIA=Presupuesto, HOTEL=%HOTEL%)
		*ENDWHEN
		*ENDWHEN


		*WHEN CECO 
			*IS <> "NA_CECO"
				*WHEN CECO.SEGMENT
					*IS %HOTEL%
				*ELSE
					*REC(EXPRESSION = %VALUE% * 0,CATEGORIA=Presupuesto, HOTEL=%HOTEL%)
                *ENDWHEN
         *ENDWHEN
	*NEXT

This last code seems that doesn't work because i don't scope the Entity that has the wrong record.

Is it a way to scope the worng entity if the user selects the entity that wants to clean ?

Thanks for the posts.

Best regards.

" I have a problem caused because a template didn't refresh correctly."

From this statement it seems you have a one time mistake and you want to clean the data. Is that correct? To clear such records you can use "CLEAR" package with your selection ! Also If there are many combinations of such records, you could download them in a flat file, and reverse the signs of the signdata and upload the file flat file as transaction data, followed by lite optimize.

"CLEAR" package do not support conditional deleting based on property...

[Former Member]

I am not suggesting to use CLEAR based on property, but if it is possible to identify clearly which records have to be deleted, then using CLEAR with full criteria.

[former_member186338]

The question author is talking about the case when records for deletion are identified by combination of member ID and property:

Like:

Delete records with cost center entity property not equal to the entity dimension member.

In this case standard CLEAR package is useless.

[former_member182305]

It can be done with the clear DM, but there are lots of combinations. The solution wante do developed was a script logic to clear the data. Indeed is a problem when refreshing the template. To solve that I set the template to refresh each time it opens.

[former_member186338]

Not clear... "To solve that I set the template to refresh each time it opens." - how it's related to the script???

Please clearly define what do you want to clear! Detailed algorithm!

[former_member186338]

Not clear requirements:

"As you can see, I have records that must have only in MTYGA with MTYGA Cost Center in Entity CUUWY. I want to set that records with 0 value."

I want to set that records with 0 value - what for???

I have alerted moderator to correct the primary tag!
