Searching for Members by Name, Alias, or Property

You can use Advanced Search within the Member Selector to search for a member by its name, its alias, or one of its properties.

  To search for a member by name, alias, or property:

  1. From the Member Selector, select the Search tab, and click Advanced Search.

  2. In Find Members, from Search By, select one of these options:

    • Name, if you want to search for the member by its name. Then go to step 4.

    • Alias, if you want to search for the member by its alias. Then go to step 4.

    • Property, if you want to search for the member by one of its properties. Then go to step 3.

  3. If you selected Property, enter or select a Property Name. See the Oracle Hyperion Planning Administrator’s Guide and the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Administrator’s Guide for information on Planning and Financial Management member properties. See the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide for information on Essbase member properties.

  4. Enter a value for the name, alias, or property.

  5. Click OK.

    If the alias, name or property is found, it is highlighted in the outline on Members.

    Note:

    When you search for members by alias, all members that have aliases matching the search criteria are highlighted in the outline, including members with aliases in other languages. However, only aliases for members in the language being used are displayed in the Member Selector.

  6. Optional: If more than one member matches your search criteria, use the left and right arrows to move up and down the outline to locate all members that match your search criteria.
