Installing EPM 11.1.2.4 in Windows 2012

In this blog let me cover installing EPM 11.1.2.4 in Windows 2012 (i was preparing a VM box for POC, thought to cover the installation as a blog hope it will help someone)

Installing Enterprise Performance Management 11.1.2.4

Have downloaded the needed as shown below for the installation of EPM 11.1.2.4 (I will be installing Essbase, Planning, R&A (FR),FDMEE & DRM) for the Windows 64 bit box.

Extracted the 6 zip files to a common location and calling the installer. Make sure its run as administrator.

Select the language as needed, here it will be English.

The Pre-requisite check is done by the installer and reports any issue if there are any. 

Customized role for End users to access the FDMEE (Data Management)

In one of our Hyperion Planning implementation, the user was asking for a role for a particular user to run the Interfaces and the batches.

We all know that “Run Integration” will do the trick (nothing special). After giving the “Run Integration” role to the needed user.

This is what the user was able to see/access, before you say it’s working as expected cool, there is a issue.

Calling calculation script from FDMEE

An interesting and quite useful functionality provided by FDMEE, Calling a calculation script once the data is loaded to a Planning/Essbase application (well the my co-worker Walid enlighten  me,thanks buddy)

The actual documentation of the functionality is here  Using Calculation Scripts

Under the Setup ->Register Target Application-> Calculation Script (3rd tab)
