Hyperion: Excel automatically changes formula to smart view

One of the issue came across today while working with smartview, found below in Oracle Forums and Worked for us.

While copying excel sheets, "='C:\Oracle\SmartView\Bin\HsTbar.xla'!HsGetValue is line adding up into every row of the sheet in formulas.


Symptom:

User opens a file and has the local HsTbar.xla path embedded at the front of the Smart View Function: "='C:\Oracle\SmartView\Bin\HsTbar.xla'!HsGetValue($B$8,"Scenario#"&$....). We also see this if a user opens a file directly from SharePoint, but the embedded path will have the SharePoint server URL in it. As you know, the Smart View function will not work in this state.



Corrective Action:

• In Excel, with the problem file open, go to Data > Edit Links.
• In the Edit Links dialog box, click the Change Source button.
• Browse to where Smart View is installed locally - for us it's C:\Oracle\SmartView\Bin (NOTE: you still need to follow these steps, even if the embedded path is the correct path for the HsTbar.xla).
• Select the HsTbar.xla file and Click OK.
• Click the Close button.

 At this point you should see the imbedded path is gone, allowing you to Refresh as normal. Also, you should be able to Save the file and re-open it without the embedded path from returning.

What if IE not supports Oracle EPM products

For example, we will take one scenario.

Internet explorer 11 is not supported with Hyperion 11.1.2.3 (Yes, it will support 11.1.2.3.500, 700+ etc with enterprise mode). That case if you open FDM web URL, you will get web application open in below format which is not accessible correctly.

Solution is simple, just go add this URL in IE 11 compatibility settings. Then you will FDM page, will looks good now.

Another scenario:
Internet explorer may not work with Hyperion 11.1.2.3.500 URLs, you can make them working by downloading IE version.

Open IE 11, then Click on F12, then go to Emulation, then select IE version 9 in the drop down settings. Now you URL will get loading page and workspace open.



Otherwise you can uninstall IE version 11, automatically IE previous version come up. So, you can go IE 9 in the same way. So that IE version will support for Hyperion 11.1.2.3.500 version.



Otherwise, you can install supported firefox version and add Remote XUL Manager to the browser. You can access Hyperion URLs without any issues in this scenario also. Firefox, you can find in support matrix.
