Are your power users unable to post journals since Friday, Jan 19th, 2019? There is a new, unpublished bug that removes all provisioning for non-admin users. “29217029 – FCCS – Power Users are unable to submit journals.” Oracle’s work around is to have an admin post all of the entries. Not idea, but the only … More Jan/19 Update – FCCS Journal Entry Bug
First of all, I must state that this table and I have major issues. It does not play well with others, especially if something gets out of whack. (of course there’s a story) A few weeks ago, something happened in one of my client’s environment, and we couldn’t run any WFP rules. I kept getting … More EPBCS SL_Aliases Table

I worked with the other Schwartberg (Ross, not Glenn. Which, by the way, are both equally smart) on another issue a few weeks ago. A client asked him to create a script to push Private Smart View Connections to each user. You see, if you share workbooks and don’t have the EXACT Smart View connection, … More Pushing Smart View Private Connections to Users
I’ve worked with Smartview and the Essbase add-in since the beginning of time. Literally. Remember when you had to rebot after every single install or uninstall? Good times. I’ve been working with OAC (for those that are newbies to the Oracle world, OAC stands for Oracle Analytics Cloud) and Excel 2013. I was having some … More Smartview won’t uninstall
