HsGetValue

Data sources: Financial Management, Essbase, Planning; Hyperion Enterprise (private connection only)

HsGetValue retrieves data from the data source for selected members of a dimension.

When HsGetValue retrieves no data, the value specified for the #NoData/Missing Label replacement option is used (see Table 12, Data Options.)

When users select Refresh or Refresh All, only HsGetValue is called. When users select Submit, HsSetValue is called first, HsGetValue is then called only if HsSetValue returns successfully.
