Ans: In financial accounting, a balance sheet is a summary of the financial balances of a company. Assets, liabilities and ownership equity are listed as of a specific date, such as the end of its financial year.

17. What does an income statement contain rough outline?
Ans: It indicates how the revenue (money received from the sale of products and services before expenses are taken out) is transformed into the net income (the result after all revenues and expenses have been accounted for. It displays the revenues recognized for a specific period, and the cost and expenses charged against these revenues, including write-offs (e.g., depreciation and amortization of various assets) and taxes. The purpose of the income statement is to show managers and investors whether the company made or lost money during the period being reported.

20. What is good will?
Ans: Goodwill in financial statements arises when a company is purchased for more than the fair value of the identify able  net assets of the company. The difference between the purchase price and the sum of the fair value of the net assets is by definition the value of the "goodwill" of the purchased company. The acquiring company must recognize goodwill as an asset in its financial statements and present it as a separate line item on the balance sheet

21. What are the combinations to enter exchange rates?
Ans: From customer 1 and custome

r 2, there is a system defined member list called currency. So, in customer 1, we are going to have source currency and in customer 2, we have destination currency.

22. I don’t want an account to get translated, what account type should be used?
Ans: There is no relation between account type and translation.

23. Child entities have data, but there is no data in parent entity? What could be the reason?
Ans: Parent account type is ‘Group Label’

24. What is ICP?
The Intercompany Partnership Dimension provides an efficient way to identify, report, and reconcile intercompany account differences. With the ability to view detail transaction at any time, you can reconcile intercompany account differences frequently and thus minimize their impact on the closing cycle.

25. How do you create ICP member in HFM?
Following are system defined members for ICP dimension.

[ICP Top] Specifies the top intercompany member
[ICP None] Specifies that no intercompany member is used
[ICP Entities] Specifies the entities that are designated for intercompany transactions

The System will automatically create a ICP member when you select the IsICP attribute, see the below for your reference.

When you create an application, Intercompany Partner members are automatically created for the application. An ICP member is created for each Entity member for which the IsICP attribute is selected.

Note:
You can modify only the description and security class for ICP members. All other attributes are predefined and cannot be modified

26. How to setup ICP? Y means what? N means what? R means what?
Ans: In account/entity dimension, we have an attribute list as IsICP.
Y- Yes
N- No
R- (Restricted) Yes AND the entity cannot use itself as ICP.
27. Explain ICP Members
Ans:  ICP Top
           ICP None
           ICP Entity
28. Explain ICP Process?
Ans:  1. Match
           2. Un Match
           3. Post
           4. Un Post
           5. Reason Code




29. What is Tolerance amount?
Ans: Tolerance amount is small discrepancies in the amounts in Intercompany Transactions.

30. How do you eliminate intercompany transactions?
Ans: Intercompany transactions are eliminated through plug account.

Steps:
1.    Create plug account in account dimension
2.    Tick the check box called IS ICP in account dimension
3.    Tick the check box called IS ICP in Entity dimension
4.    Load the ICP rule file.
5.    Then automatically the difference between the Intercompany transactions will be transferred to plug account


For more Hyperion Information kindly  visit @ http://h4hfm.blogspot.in/


31. How many plug accounts we can create?
Ans: In HFM, we can create number of plug accounts, but based on requirement we will create the plug accounts for elimination process.

32. You are not able to load ICP transactions. What is the Reason?
Ans:  Cause: IC Period is not opened.
Expand Tasks and select IC Transaction Tasks. Select Manage IC Periods. From the Scenario drop-down list, select a scenario for the period. From the Year drop-down list, select a year for the period. Select the check box next to each period that you want to open.

33. What is mean value dimension?
Ans: The Value dimension represents the types of values stored in your application, and can include the input currency, parent currency, adjustments, and consolidation detail such as proportion, Elimination, and contribution detail.

34. EXPLAIN about Entity Curr adj member in HFM?
Ans: Basically value dimension members are inter-related with so many areas in HFM, but in brief talking about Entity Curr Adj you can make any adjustments using journals into this particular value dimension, here you can perform calculate and posting journals.

35. How many types of adjustments we can post.
Ans: In HFM we have:
1.    Entity Currency Adjs
2.    Parent Currency Adjs
3.    Parent Adjs
4.    Contribution Adjs

36. How will you perform Currency Translations?
First we have to create/define all the currencies in the Meta Data Item called currencies. Then we have to perform currency translations in Explore data module by using custom dimensions and value dimension.

37. Where is the translation done?
Ans: Translations can be done in data grid, data forms and at process management level.

38. What is triangulation?
Ans: A means of converting balances from one currency to another via a third common currency. In Europe, this is the euro for member countries. For example, to convert from French franc to Italian lira, the common currency is defined as European euro. Therefore, in order to convert balances from French franc to Italian lira, balances are converted from French franc to European euro

Triangulation means doing translation from source currency to any currency other than destination currency.
Example:
If you have USD, EURO & YEN our source currency is USD & destination currency is YEN if u want to translate from USD to EURO, system will translate first from USD to YEN & then YEN to EURO in reverse manner.

39. How do you enable Rules to customize consolidation?
Ans: Application Settings -> consolidation Rules -> Y

40. What is node security?
Ans: Application Settings ->
By giving node security we can restrict user for seeing the value dimension members.

IF you set node security as parent only the members of the value dimension from <Entity Currency>up to and including <Parent Curr Total> are visible.

If you set node security as Entity, all members of the value dimension would be visible

41. What is the use of Organization by Period?
Ans: Application Settings ->  If any New Entity or Entities exists in the future at that point that newly added entities  will be going to participated in the Consolidation or not.

IF Organization by Period options select as “Y” those will be participated in the Consolidation process.

IF Organization by Period options select as “N” those will be not participated in the Consolidation process.

42. What is the use of Icp Entity aggregation weight?
Ans: If we Put 1 it going to participating 100% in the consolidation process.
If we Put 0.5 it going to participating 50% in the consolidation process

43. Explain about member attributes?
Ans: Member attributes are differed from dimension to dimension; every dimension member will be having importance to their respective areas.

44. What is alternative hierarchy?
Ans: For different reporting purposes we will create alternative hierarchies, in alternate hierarchy one member can be shared by more than one parent, but the default parent will be only one.

45. How do you create members in HFM?
Ans: Using manage metadata, we create child or sibling

46. What is purpose of Journal?
Ans: Journals are generally used to adjust the data.

47. What is Adjustment?
Ans: Adjustment is to correct the data. It is done by Journals at value dimension member Entity currency Adjs and Parent curr Adjs.

48. How many journals types are available in the HFM?
Ans: We having 2 types of journals .Those are
1.    Regular
2.    Auto Reversing

49. What is a Recurring Journal?
Ans: Some Journals we use repeatedly.  So, for that purpose, we will create recurring templates. By using the recurring templates, we will create recurring Journals.

50. What is an Auto Reversing Journal?
Ans: If we create a journal as Auto Reversing Journal, the journal will post in the next period by reversing the Debit and Credit.

68. Where is HFM data available?
Ans: Data is stored at the cells formed by the intersection of the members of the different dimension members in the sub cube. All aggregations and calculations are performed on data in sub cubes retrieved into RAM on the application server
And I hope the data also be available in the database server.

69. How do you load the data into HFM?
Ans: HFM directly cannot take the data from ERP packages. So the data should be downloaded from ERP and loaded into upstream tool like FDM and ODI etc. Then it should be mapped with HFM. And then load that into HFM.

70. How do you achieve closing process in HFM?

In prior versions (prior to 11 versions) items required extracting and loading. The ability to use Lifecycle Management is controlled via a unique role for which the user must be provisioned

81. Explain about member attributes?
Ans: Member attributes are differed from dimension to dimension; every dimension member will be having importance to their respective areas.

82. How can enable Metadata Security Filtering?
Ans: This setting specifies whether users of an application see all dimension members or only those to which they have access. (Means we can see the metadata particular entity only which we have right)

83. HOW do you create members list in HFM?
Ans: Member list we can write with the function called list and we will save with extension .lst, once you uploaded the member list you can select the member in a particular POV working with different areas like journals, ICP etc., we can also create our own custom member list for different purposes.

Then you will be able to see the value dimension members which upper to parent Curr adj, normally up to parent curr adj we can able to see without node security.

87. What is data audit in HFM?
Ans: You can use the Data Audit feature to view data changes performed by users. You can filter the data changes by date range, application server, user, and the dimension members of cells.
You can audit Scenario and Account members by setting the Enable Data Audit metadata attribute to Y for the scenarios and accounts to audit. To turn off auditing of Scenario and Account members, change the Enable Data Audit attribute to N.

88. What is minority interest in HFM?

91.  What is the minimum to role to be given to a user to access HFM?
Ans: Default

92. Where do you give roles to users?
Ans: In shared services under the provisions.

93. Can we load data in multiple currencies per entity?
Ans: You cannot load multiple currencies to one entity, because in attributes you can give only one currency in Def. Currency

94. At what rate accounts will get translated and how you tell (or
Define) in the system?
Ans:

Step1: we have to define the currencies in metadata under the “Currencies”
Here what are the currencies you will define it will be automatically stored under Custom 1 and Custom 2 under Currencies system generated member.

Here the currencies will have a relationship with value dimension

After you load metadata, Financial Management automatically creates three Value dimension members for each currency in your application: Currency Name, Currency Name Adjs, and Currency Name Total, where Currency Name is the currency label. For example, for a currency of USD, Financial Management creates the following Value dimension members: USD, USD Adjs, and USD Total.

Step 2: In entity dimension attributes we have to give the default currency for that particular entity.

By giving this whenever you select the “entity currency” in value dimension whatever the currency we have given the default currency it will execute that.

For example if you are looking for a form or report of the country US as we all know the currency for US is USD, here we can see the report in two ways in value dimension, either you have to select the currency “USD” or you have to select the “entity currency” when you select the “entity currency” it will take the default currency from the entity (in this case we will give the default currency from entity as USD”) in both cases the result will be same. So here whenever you don’t know the entity currency the value dimension member “entity currency” will help us to see the report in the local currency.

Step 3: Application setting with regards to currency
Default Currency:  this means the ultimate parent currency in which we will generate the final reports.

Default Rate for Balance Accounts: For Balance sheet accounts we have to mention the default rate whether it’s closing rate or average rate (we need to create an account for average and closing rates)

Default Rate for Flow Accounts: For flow accounts (i.e., Income statement) we have to mention the default rate whether it’s closing rate or average rate (we need to create an account for average and closing rates)

Use PVA for Balance Accounts: Normally we will not select this for balance sheet accounts, because we will use closing rate for balance sheet accounts

Use PVA for Flow Accounts: When you are using Average rate for Flow accounts, in normal practice we will select this option for Flow accounts (i.e. Income statement)

Step 4: Once we finish these steps we will enter the currency exchange rates by using flat file or web form.
Normally People from client side will do this activity by entering in web form or data file.

95. What is the combination to enter exchange rates?
Ans: You can take the base currency in custom 1 and translated currency in custom 2 and you can give the exchange rates.

96. What is Custom aggregation weight?
Ans: In Node attribute if you put 1 means it will be participating 100% consolidation process and if put 0.5 means it will be participating 50% consolidation process.

97. Child entities have data but there is no data in parent entity what
Could be the reason?
Ans: Probably consolidation may not happen at that particular point of time.

98.  In which dimension we see the Zero view adjustments and Zero view Non adjustments attributes?
Ans:  Scenario.

99.  What is line item detail in HFM how to enter it?
Ans: If you select “Use line items” attribute in account dimension for a particular account you can do this.
For example in admin expenses you have different departments like sales, purchases, HR. you can enter 3 line items in account admin expense in grid.

100. What is the Functions of Smart view?
Ans :
1. Get value
2. Set value
3. Get text
4. Set text
5. Hs currency
6. Hs label
7. Hs description
8. Hs group



101. What is meant by validation rule and how to set?
Ans: Validation rules define the validation rule group. The rule table comprises of Display Value, Description, Rule Name, Rule Text, Type, Category, Seq and Rule Logic.
Validation Rule Group-It contains a set of administrator defined rules that perform checks and balances against the target system.

102. Have you used data forms give me some example?
Ans: For data entry in to the HFM every client should use data forms in some way.
Example for this Balance sheet, Income statement.

103. How do you take back up of a HFM application?
Ans: Normal practice is copy application, back up of security, meta-data, data etc.

104. The data is exported to smart view in excel but the cells are showing zeros what could be the reason?
Ans: This is because of the Zero view adjustments and Zero view non-adjustments in scenario dimension meta-data attributes.

105. What are the system messages??? Tell me some error messages?
Ans: You can retrieve, view, print, and delete system messages for Financial Management. You can retrieve system messages by date, server name, and application name. System messages remain in the log until you delete them. The system messages module is available only in the Web user interface

If a user doesn't have a proper access for a particular entity if he is repeating the same action, then an error will come in system messages "you don’t have proper rights to perform this action".

106. What is the Error code 502?  Or 400 something?
Ans: A 502 error is Internal Server error. Your web server will return that HTTP Response when the program running terminates abnormally/returns an unhandled exception.

A 404 error (probably it may be 400 errors) is a file not found error that occurs when the Web Server receives a HTTP GET request for a file that does not exist on the server in the path specified. Usually occurs when a web.

What is node security?
By giving node security we can restrict user for seeing the value dimension members 

IF you set node security as parent only the members of the value dimension from <Entity Currency>up to and including <Parent Curr Total> are visible.

If you set node security as Entity, all members of the value dimension would be visible

How many dimensions are system defined and how many dimensions are user defined and what are they?
At the time of application profile creation, based the data enter by us...

If you observe in above screen if we check include Half years, Include Quarters, Include months, the system will generate the period dimension members as well as view dimension members like YTD,HYTD,QTD,MTD and also 12 periods will be created automatically. And in the bottom based on the staring year and number of years the system will create the Year dimension members.

So 3 dimension members View, Period, Year will be created by the system and remaining dimension members will be created by the consultants.
because of this reason you can not able to see these 3 dimensions under manage meta-data.
 what is COA?
 COA is nothing but chart of accounts, what ever the members we will define under the account dimension will be called some times chart of accounts  (COA)
