Content

Content tab displays sheets with TeamOne content, so you can easily navigate through TeamOne explorations and formulas. You can recalculate and perform actions related to the active sheet (expand/collapse exploration rows, submit exploration data to IBM PA, increase/decrease indentation) and Recalculate all sheets with TeamOne content.

Recalculate

img

Recalculates all TEAMONE formulas and exploration on the current sheet. TEAMONE formula allows to bring data from IBM Planning Analytics (TM1) server directly to sheets in 2 steps

STEP 1. Define a formula

TEAMONE formula expects the next arguments:

  • cube connection - "TM1 connection:cube name" string, where TM1 connection is one of the configurated connections. You can specify only the cube name to fetch data from the currently selected TM1 connection in TeamOne sidebar.
  • rangeRows - select the cells represeting your rows
  • rangeColumns - select the cells represeting your columns
  • rangeTitles - select the cells represeting your context elements
  • options - flags to "A"utofit the columns, use "F"ormatted values, use "S"tatic. You can combine flags: "AFS" - fetch formatted static values and autofit columns

For rows and columns you can select multiple cells, a single cell or even no cells, use an empty string or leave the argument empty:

// Revenue cube in TM1QA environment, return formatted values and autofit columns
=TEAMONE("TM1QA:Revenue", A4:A5, B2:C3, A2:A3,"AF")

// No connection name. No columns (argument #3 is skipped). Hardcoded title
=TEAMONE('Revenue', A4:A5, , 'Gross Revenue')

Static values

When using the "S" flag, =TEAMONE() formula will return a single value (the very first one) and the remaining values will be printed as static. The "S" flag is recommended when TEAMONE formula includes hundreds of row and\or column elements to avoid You have exceeded the property storage quota. Please remove some properties and try again. In most cases you don't need to use this flag.

Range

A range should represent TM1 dimension element names or aliases. You can use 2 dimensional ranges for rows and columns (to use multiple cube dimensions), but titles range should only include either a single cell or a one dimensional range. You should specify at least 1 row or 1 column or 1 title range

Repetitive elements

If you have multiple rows and/or columns, you don't have to specify repetitive elements for each row or column. TeamOne will automatically use the same element name if the next rows/columns are blank

Multiple formulas performance

If using the same title elements, the same row\column dimensions and the same formatting option, TeamOne will automatically detect and build a single query for each group of similar formulas, resulting in better performance

img

See ::TEAMONE formula example

STEP 2. Recalculate the values

Go to TeamOne sidebar > Functions tab and click the Recalculate to recalculate all =TEAMONE() formulas and explorations on the current sheet. Depending on how many formulas you have on the current sheet and your IBM Planning Analytics model and data complexity, it may take a few seconds or much longer to fetch all the requested data.

Hints

Dimensions and elements

You do not need to include elements for all the cube dimensions. TeamOne will select the default member for each omitted dimension.

Alternative hierarhies

For each title element or the first element of any row\column range, you can specify the dimension and hierarchy using the next syntax: dimension^hierarchy^element You should clarify the dimension name in case when using elements with the same name in different dimensions

img

Autogenerate formula

You can let TeamOne build (autogenerate) =TEAMONE() formula for you using an existing cube/view on the Model tab or from the exploration menu:

img

Submit

After you update the exploration data in Google Sheets you can upload it back to IBM PA. Use the Skip non-updatable flag to ignore all consolidated and rule calculated cells.

img

Change the exploration rows and columns

For each exploration TeamOne creates a named range T1E_<%sheet_id%>. You can add\remove the range rows, columns and data before submitting it. Please keep in mind, the changes are not saved to the exploration and they will be reverted when recalculating the exploration.

Expand / Collapse

Expand or collapse the selected exploration cell. This is an equivalent to expanding or collapsing dimension element using dimension subset editor in Explorer. TeamOne will toggle the element state (a collapsed consolidation element will be expanded and an expanded consolidation element will be collapsed), save and refresh the current sheet exploration.

img

Increase indent

Being a really great tool, sheets are missing 2 simple functions to increase and decrease cell indentation. Increase indent adds 1 space (on the left) to the selected cells. This function can help you when defining a TM1 dimension hierarchy using space indentation img

Decrease indent

Opposite to the function above, Decrease indent trims 1 space (from the left) of the selected cells.

Recalculate all

Use Recalculate all to recalculate all or multiple selected shees.

Add code

Though PAW provides a web interface to do TM1 modeling, it is still very tedious to develop and update your models, document your changes and deploy them to other environments. TeamOne allows to create/update tm1 cubes, views, dimensions, hierarchies, subsets, elements, attributes, manage users, groups, permissions, object security... without a single line of code. It is like you use Sheets to write a documentation and the documentation is used to update your model automatically. Moreover:

  • you can collaborate with all your team members when you have new TM1 requirements or change requests
  • a model draft gathered during reqruiements discussions can replace up to 95% of the development
  • you can have maximum involvement of analysts and business users, for instance, you can ask somebody to translate element captions to a different language and then you will be only one click to get the new localized captions syncronized in TM1.
  • your documentation is created before the development has even started, moreover, it gets updated as soon as you change anything
  • you can prototype and implement real models in seconds

TIP

This functionality requires to have TM1 ADMIN group. It will be automatically hidden for non-admin users.

Add code will open an interface where you can add a basic template to:

  • Create/update cube
  • Create/update view
  • Create/update dimension hierarchy
  • Create/update subset
  • Manage cube security
  • Manage dimension security
  • Manage element security
  • Manage application security
  • Manage process security
  • Add prolog code
  • Add epilog code

You fill out the basic template form and click ADD TO ACTIVE SHEET button, where you will be able add more fields and customize the code block. Once done, you can format and run code.

::cube

Use ::cube block to create and update cubes. You specify the cube name in the second column

Option / parameterDescription
-recreateInclude this option if you want to recreate cube (you don't need to specidy any value in column B). This option is mainly used in the dev environment when you need to change cube dimensions. IMPORTANT: recreating the cube will also delete all cube data.
-captionAllows to specify a cube caption. You can localize the cube name by adding multiple caption options in a format -caption:locale, for instance -captions:en, -caption:fr, etc. The locale should exist in }Cultures dimension.
Dimension 1-NUse a separate row to specify the needed cube dimension names in the order you want them to be in the cube. Remember you can have up to 256 dimensions in TM1 cube.

In the next example let's create XR cube that consists if 3 dimensions. We will also add Exchange Rates caption. Later we can add other localized captions: img

See ::cube example

TIP

For existing cubes you can automatically generate a cube definition from the model tab cube menu

::view

Use ::view block to create and update a cube view. You specify the view name in the second column

Option / parameterDescription
-cubecube name
-subsetdefault subset in a format $SubsetName, will be used for all the ommited dimensions. $ALL subset keyword will be used if this option is omitted
-aliasdefault subset alias, if exists the alias will be applied to each created subset. If subset already exists, its current alias will not be updated
-recreaterecreate default subset, it is used with the -subset option above. For instance, you specify -subset option as '$LEAVES'. Then it will recreate the LEAVES subset for each dimension you omitted in the current view definition
Dimension 1-Nenter a dimension name in column A, subset\expression in column B and subset options in column C. Use the next syntax to set a view row or column dimension: R:dimensionName, C:dimensionName. See below how to define elements\subset\mdx for each dimension subset in column B

In column B for each dimension you can define a subset or MDX expressions as:

  • a comma delimited element list, i.e.: Actual,Budget, Forecast
  • an existing subset name in a format $SubsetName
  • $ALL, $LEAVES and $ROOTS system subsets. TeamOne will create a system subset if it does not exist using the next MDX expressions:
    • ALL: {HIERARCHIZE({[dimensionName].[hierarchyName].members})}
    • LEAVES: {TM1FILTERBYLEVEL( {[dimensionName].members}, 0)}
    • ROOTS: {FILTER( {[dimensionName].members}, [dimensionName].CurrentMember.Parent.Name = "")}
  • a valid MDX expression, i.e.: {[Calendar]}.[2022].Children}
  • a pattern using "*" for any characters and "?" for any one character, i.e.: /*substring*/ or /2022 Q?/
  • a subset keyword

You can also combine elements, patterns, MDX expressions, MDX keywords and MDX mods into a comma delimited list, i.e.: Current period,Previous period,{[Calendar]}.[2022].Children,/2022 Q?/ If you leave Column B value empty, the -subset option will be used

img

In column C you can enter subset options in the next format: '-name:Total Company -alias:Caption_Base', which will name the subset as Total Company and will set the Caption_Base alias. See more subset options below

img

See ::view example

TIP

For existing cubes you can automatically generate a view definition from the model tab cube or view menu

::rule

Use ::rule block to create and update a cube rule

Option / parameterDescription
-cubecube name
Rule line 1-Nuse a as many lines as you need to define the calculation rules

::dimension

img Use ::dimension block to create and update dimensions. You specify the dimension name in the second column. Starting from column 3 you can specify element attributes in a format: AttributeName:AttributeType:AttributeLocale, where AttributeType is one of the following:

  • S (default) - string
  • A (default) - alias
  • N (default) - numeric

AttributeLocale is an element in }Cultures dimension.

You can ommit AttributeType and/or AttributeLocale, TeamOne will assume a string non-localized attribute, for example on the next screenshow TeamOne will create create Caption alias, MonthNumber numeric and MonthName string attributes: img

Option / parameterDescription
-hierarchyIf this option is specified, it will create an alternative hierarchy, if omitted the default hiearchy will be created
-recreateInclude this option if you want to recreate the dimension elements (you don't need to specidy any value in column B). This option is mainly used in DEV environment when you need to delete the elements first before re-building the dimension hierarchy. IMPORTANT: all the data for the deleted elements will be lost
-componentSortSet the component sorting. Values: ByInput (default), ByName
-componentOrderSet the component sorting order. Values: Ascending (default), Descending
-elementSortSet the element sorting. Values: ByHierarchy (default), ByInput, ByName, ByLevel
-elementOrderSet the element sorting order. Values: Ascending (default), Descending
-captionAllows to specify a dimension caption. You can localize the dimension name by adding multiple caption options in a format -caption:locale, for instance -captions:en, -caption:fr, etc. The locale should exist in }Cultures dimension.
-subset.aliasSpecify the alias in Column B to be used for the Default and system subsets (ALL, LEAVES, ROOTS). No alias will be used if omitted
-subset.expandaboveWill expand above the Default and system subsets (ALL, LEAVES, ROOTS)
-subset.dynamicWill make dynamic the Default and system subsets (ALL, LEAVES, ROOTS)
-subset.leavesThe value in Column B will be used as the LEAVES subset expression. $LEAVES subset keyword will be used if omitted.
-subset.allThe value in Column B will be used as the ALL subset expression. $ALL subset keyword will be used if omitted.
-subset.rootsWill create ROOTS subset. The value in Column B will be used as a subset expression. $ROOTS subset keyword will be used if omitted.
Element 1-NUse a separate row to specify the dimension element names in the order you want them to be in the dimension. There are 2 ways to organize elements into a parent-child hierarchy: you can eiher use a space indentation in column A or you can specify the parent element in column B. You can specify the element type and weight after a semicolon, for example: ElementName:-1 will add ElementName child element with -1 weight; Comment:S will create a string element. If attributes are defined above, you can specify the element attribute values in the corresponding columns

For instance let's create Period dimension containing 2022 and 2023 months. Let's also add en and fr localized captions. Also let's create the default and system subset: img

See ::dimension example

We can quickly add a Fiscal Quarter alternative hierarchy img

See ::hierarchy example

::subset

Use ::subset block to create and update subsets. You specify the subset name in the second column

Option / parameterDescription
-dimensionDimension to create a subset for
-hierarchyUse this option to specify which hiearchy to create a subset in. If omitted the default hiearchy will be used
-aliasUsed to specify a subset alias
-expandaboveUse this option to set the subset expand above flag. Use False value to disable it if needed
-dynamicInclude this option if you want to recreate a dynamic subset
Element 1-NUse a separate row to specify the elements to include in the subset. See below how to define subset elements\mdx for each

In Column A on each row you can specify:

  • an element name
  • a comma delimited element list, i.e.: Actual,Budget, Forecast
  • a valid MDX expression, i.e.: {[Calendar]}.[2022].Children}
  • a pattern using "*" (any characters) and "?" (any one character), i.e.: /*substring*/ or /2022 Q?/
  • a subset keyword

You can also combine elements, patterns, MDX expressions, MDX keywords and MDX mods into a comma delimited list, i.e.: Current period,Previous period,{[Calendar]}.[2022].Children,/2022 Q?/

For instance let's create a few subsets for the Period dimension: (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wOI8onSk2GoOoVzSDh_EPbZj5pN5iQPPK62cDV3sr7k/edit#gid=416332645) img

See ::subset example

TIP

For existing dimensions you can automatically generate a dimension or hiearchy definition from the model tab dimension or hierarchy menu

Subset keywords

TeamOne simplifies using ALL, LEAVES and ROOTS subsets by providing subset keywords. In certain places, like ::view or ::dimension definitions, you can use a subset keyword instead of subset name or MDX expression. TeamOne will automatically check if subset exists and create one if needed:

Subset keywordDescription
$ALLWill refer to the ALL subset. If the subset does not exist, it will be created using the next MDX expression: {HIERARCHIZE({[dimensionName].[hierarchyName].members})}
$LEAVESWill refer to the LEAVES subset. If the subset does not exist, it will be created using the next MDX expression: {TM1FILTERBYLEVEL( {[dimensionName].[hierarchyName].members}, 0)}
$ROOTSWill refer to the ROOTS subset. If the subset does not exist, it will be created using the next MDX expression: {FILTER( {[dimensionName].[hierarchyName].members}, [dimensionName].[hierarchyName].CurrentMember.Parent.Name = "")}

MDX mods

You can manipulate with subsets expressions using MDX mods instead of the actual MDX. It saves time, makes it easy to use by non-technical users and simple to understand the subset content. For instance, compare this MDX expression:

{FILTER( {TM1FILTERBYLEVEL( {TM1DRILLDOWNMEMBER( {[Period].[Period].[FY2022],[Period].[Period].[FY2023]}, ALL )}, 0 )}, [Period].[Period].[quarter] = "Q3" )}

to the equivalent expression using MDX mods:

FY2022,FY2023>>expand>>level=0>>quarter=Q3

wildcard expressions are supported as well:

FY20*>>descendants>>level=0>>status=OP?N>>first=5

MDX mods can be added to subset expression after double closing angle bracket >>. Please see the table below for all currently supported MDX mods:

MDX modDescription
expandPerforma a drill down for each member of the current set. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {TM1DRILLDOWNMEMBER( ${mdx}, ALL )}
childrenInclude direct children elements for each member of the current set. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {GENERATE( ${mdx}, [${dim}].[${hier}].CurrentMember.Children )}
descendantsInclude all descendant elements for each member of the current set. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {DESCENDANTS(${mdx})}
distinctRemoves duplicates from the current set. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {DISTINCT(${mdx})}
first=%number%Get the first number elements. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {HEAD( ${mdx}, ${number} )}
last=%number%Get the last number elements. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {TAIL( ${mdx}, ${number} )}
level=%number%Will filter the current set by the specified number. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {TM1FILTERBYLEVEL( ${mdx}, ${number} )}
%attribute%=%value%Will filter the current set by the specified attribute & value. You can use a wildcard expression for the attribute value. On the backend it will wrap your current mdx into {FILTER( ${mdx}, [${dim}].[${hier}].CurrentMember.Properties("${attribute}") = "${value}" )} or *{TM1FILTERBYPATTERN( ${mdx}, "${wildcard value}", "${attribute}")}*if a wildcard value is provided

::element.rename

Use ::element.rename block to rename dimension/hierarchy elements without loosing the data.

Option / parameterDescription
-dimensionDimension to
-hierarchyHierarchy (you can omit if using the default dimension hierarchy)
Element 1-NUse a separate row to specify the existing element names in Column A and new element names in Column B. Keep in mind, TeamOne will skip non-existing element names, which could be the case when you already performed the renaming or if you just made a typo

img
