This chapter describes parameters unrelated to the Analytical Engine and lists their default values, if any. As indicated, most parameters are visible to all users; a few are visible only if you log in as the owner of the component.
This chapter covers the following topics:
To access these parameters within Business Modeler, click Parameters > System Parameters.
The parameters listed on the Database, System, and Worksheet tabs are in the sys_params table in the database.
The parameters listed on the App Server tabs are in the aps_params table in the database.
| Parameter | Location | Default | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | |||
| AccountLockoutDuration | System | 60 | Represents the number of seconds a user is locked out of system after ‘AccountLockoutThreshold’ has been reached. Value = -1: the account will be locked out until administrator unlocks it; Value >= 0 : the account will be locked for number of seconds specified. |
| AccountLockoutThreshold | System | -1 | Controls the number of failed login attempts by the user before locking user account.Value = -1 : the account will not be locked after failed login attempts. Value >= 0 : the account will be locked after failed login attempts according to this value. |
| accumulatedOrUpdate | System | update | For integration, this parameter specifies how to handle existing data. Use one of the following values: accumulate: Add the new data to the existing data. update: Overwrite the existing data. |
| active_forecasts_versions | System | 5 | Specifies how many forecast versions the Demantra database should store. Use a positive integer. |
| AlignNumericSeries | System Parameters > Worksheet | right | This parameter controls alignment of numeric series only (i.e. not date or string series). Feasible values are (left, center, right). |
| align_sales_data_levels_in_loading | Database | no | Visible only to owner. Specifies whether to maintain matrix information (combination information that is time-independent) within the sales_data table. If the matrix information is within the sales_data table, then the Analytical Engine can use that table directly instead of internally creating the sales_data_engine table. Use one of the following values: no: Do not adjust the sales_data table for direct use by the engine. yes: Adjust the sales_data table for direct use by the engine, so that the engine can run more quickly. This adjustment is made when data is added through loading, integration, or other mechanisms. If you set this parameter to yes, it is also necessary to rewrite some database procedures. For configuration steps, see “Reconfiguring the sales_data_engine Table” . |
| applicationDateFormat | Application Server> App. Server | mm-dd-yyyy | The system date format. |
| applicationDateTimeFormat | Application Server> App. Server | mm-dd-yyyy hh:mm:ss | The system date/time format, used where both a date and time are displayed. |
| application_root | Provides support for a relative path to files or applications referenced by workflow steps in Workflow Manager. See Parameters Used as Arguments for a Method. | ||
| ApprovalProcessScope | System | "0" indicates approval scope as Global to maintain backwards compatibility | Approval process refers to Forecast approval process, which in turn locks approved combinations. This parameter determines the scope of the approval process. When set to '0' the scope is said to be global and causes the Approval series to be added to every worksheet in the application, thus enforcing the approval process everywhere. When set to '1' the scope is said to be specific to SALES_DATA. In this case, approval process series is added to a particular worksheet only if other SALES_DATA series are selected in the worksheet, either explicitly or through a client expression. SALES_DATA series are also referred to as "BASE 0" series. |
| AppServerLocation | System | Visible only to owner. Path of the directory that contains the Web Platform Server; this is the directory that contains the Web_inf subdirectory. | |
| AppServerSupport | System | Do not change this parameter; this is for internal use only. | |
| AppServerURL | System | http://localhost:8080/demantra | Visible only to owner. URL of the Web Platform Server. In some cases, external notifications, such as simulation and security changes, are missed because the Web server is overloaded. If you are using IIS and JRun, you can work around this by pointing all the external notifications to the internal JRun web server rather than to the IIS and JRun connector. To do so, set the AppServerURL parameter to use the default JRun port (8100). For example: http://frodo:8100/demantra See the Oracle Demantra Installation Guide. |

This applies to all worksheets, in Demand Planner Web, Promotion Effectiveness, and Settlement Management as well as Demand Planner and Demand Replenisher. Use one of the following values: true: Demantra automatically runs any worksheet as soon as it is opened. It will not rerun automatically if changes are made to the data, for example, after clicking the update button. Also, it will not rerun automatically if changes are made in the wizard (apart from the Layout Designer). false: Demantra does not automatically run worksheets |

| client.dropdownCache.limit | APS_PARAMS table | 50 | The number of dropdown lists for series that the client can cache in memory. This is an internal client implementation parameter. Client Dropdown Cache is implemented in an LRU manner so that when the limit is reached, the oldest entry will be deleted from the client cache memory. When the system needs to access this deleted dropdown list, it will be reloaded again from the server.

| client.uilimitations.warning | Application Server > Collaborator | 80 | The percentage of the allowable maximum combinations, cells, or disk space at which to display to a warning message. For example, if maxcombs is 1000 and this value is 80, then a warning message will be displayed after loading 800 combinations (80% of max). If user has entered 0, it is ignored and the default value is used instead. If this value is 100, then no warnings will be displayed, since the error messages will occur at the same |

If set to "0" dead combinations are not allocated forecast. In this latter case, if all combinations that are part of an update are dead, the updated values will be lost. |
| update_units_by_items | Database | by items | Specifies how to update units for the INSERT_UNITS procedure. Use one of the following values: by items: The procedure operates item by item. This is faster but less accurate. by combinations: The procedure operates on individual combinations. This is slower but accurate. |

You can control whether worksheets use these structures; the system uses them automatically for other purposes. If you enable this option, the largest benefit occurs in cases where promotions are long (and have many rows of data). This affects only worksheets that include general levels that have population attributes. |
||
| useGLExceptions | Application Server> Collaborator | true | Visible only to owner. Specifies whether Demantra respects worksheet exceptions that refer to promotion series. Use one of the following values: true: Demantra does consider worksheet exceptions that refer to promotion series. This affects the behavior of the worksheet and of the BLE Step. The worksheet behavior, however, is not intuitive; the Members Browser displays all the combinations. When the user clicks on a combination that does not meet the criteria, the worksheet then displays a message saying that the combination is empty. false: Demantra ignores worksheet exceptions that refer to promotion series. This means that such exceptions are useless, but the worksheets behave more intuitively. |
| UseItemsAggri | Worksheet | no | Specifies whether to use data from the branch_data_items rather than the usual table. The branch_data_items table aggregates data by item, for improved performance in worksheets or within the Business Logic Engine. You can use this table only when you do not need to view specific locations or filter by location. Use one of the following values: yes: Whenever possible, Demantra uses data from the branch_data_items. In this case, the first time the engine runs, there will be a long update of all rows in sales_data. Also make sure that the DYNAMIC_SYNC procedure runs periodically to keep the branch_data_items table current. no: Demantra uses the usual tables. |

If implemented, specifies whether to check whether the product matches between a settlement and the possible promotions. This parameter controls matching for all kinds of settlements, not just off-invoice settlements.
