How to set Hyperion Financial Report default user point of view On


When a new user is assigned access to Hyperion Workspace, the Financial report user Point of view is set by default to "Off."

In this scenario, the user needs to set the POV manually by going to File -> Preferences -> Financial Reporting. This can, however, be avoided by setting the POV to on globally by the admin.

It can be achieved by following the steps as outlined below -

1. Run the FR Configurator (FRConfig.cmd in Windows, FRConfig.sh in UNIX) under oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\financialreporting\bin.
2. Go to the MBeans tab.
3. Expand com.hyperion -> Financial Reporting -> Attributes.
4. Set the value for "com.hyperion.reporting.HRPrefs.previewuserpov" to "true".
5. Close the Configurator.
6. Stop and restart the Financial Reporting services.
7. In order to verify the result, create a new user and ask the user to sign in to Workspace.
8. Ask the user to go to File > Preferences > Financial Reporting.

The "Preview User Point of View" should be "ON" now.
