Lightning Lessons

Lightning lessons are targeted concepts for people of all skill levels. These lessons provide a reusable example and participants are walked through the groovy rules and Essbase calculation. These are not designed to teach you coding skills. They are designed to teach you concepts and with the downloadable examples people of all skill levels can deploy these to improve all aspects of an implementation. 

Lightening Lesson

  • $49.99

Automating Edge Based Aggregations (Lightning Lesson)

One script that runs on a form save and aggregates sparse dimensions exists in every application built. Grab this script to do it dynamically and is form agnostic.

  • $29.99

Collections (Lightning Lesson)

Using collections eliminates redundant code, increases the speed of delivery, and reduces complexity of the applications.

  • $149.99

Dynamic Data Maps (Lightning Lesson)

Managing Data Maps between plan types can be tedious, error-prone, and introduces inefficient performance. Create one Data Map and use your forms to dynamically override it based on edited cells. One script works on EVERY Data Form, regardless of the layout. Benefits: Reduced development, reduced administration, no code maintenance for new or changing Data Forms, Improved performance

  • $149.99

Eliminating Serial Mode (Lightning Lesson)

Running Essbase calculations in serial mode is often required due to complex calculations, cross-dimensional operators, and Essbase functions. Groovy allows us to dynamically create calculations so we don't need to use these methods. Calculations often improve by 80% or more. Wins:  Performance, and dynamically executed based on the metadata, no administrator dependence

  • $149.99

Form Agnostic Rules (Lightning Lesson)

Having to create and manage different Business Rules that do the same thing due to varying form layouts is time-consuming to create, hard to manage, and limits the ability to give users access to own and maintain forms. Create one Business Rule and use your forms to dynamically build business logic on edited cells.  One script works on EVERY Data Form, regardless of the layout.

  • $149.99

Metadata Exports (Lightning Lesson)

Exporting metadata has been limited in the past to specific formats that don't align to easy consumption for other systems.  These limitations no longer exist. Metadata can be exported in any format required and includes only what is required.  This course will provide you with scripts to export metadata to generation and level formats and the knowledge to edit the scripts to provide data consumers what they need.

  • $149.99

Multi-Threading Calculations (Lightning Lesson)

Calculations can run long and leaving the Essbase engine to optimize the use of the CPUs is inefficient. When you control what the threads do, you control the effectiveness. Being able to control how and the number of CPUs used at 100% allows the ultimate flexibility and performance.

  • $129.99

Optimizing Essbase Scripts with Groovy (Lightning Lesson)

One of the most useful things Groovy adds is the ability to query the metadata and dynamically generate Essbase scripts. It allows efficiencies by eliminating costly Essbase functions, as well as managing the creation of blocks in ways never possible before. This course walks through creating calculations in both BSO and ASO.  The cherry on top is building out PCM-like allocations with lightning-fast performance.

  • $149.99

Optimizing Groovy with Classes (Lightning Lesson)

Reusing code and creating common functions is critical to reducing effort, improving simplicity, and decreasing the time it takes to implement. A great option for maximizing your time and money is the concept of classes in Groovy. Classes allow you to create objects that can be reused everywhere you write Groovy in a single optimized strategy.

  • $249.99

Top Down Data Input (Lightning Lesson)

With Groovy, users can now enter data at any level they want without a top down scenario. With Groovy, you get the best of both worlds, all without any risk of data reliability issues. Benefits: Reduced development, reduced administration, no code maintenance for new or changing Data Forms, managed based on metadata changed automatically
