Financial Management Objects

This section explains the syntax you must use to represent Oracle Hyperion Financial Management objects when using functions.

The top-level object in Financial Management is the HS object. This means that when you use a Financial Management function, the first three characters must be the letters HS followed by a period:

HS.

This example demonstrates how to write the Clear function:

HS.Clear

If you do not precede Clear with the HS. characters, an error occurs.

Caution:

You cannot use the HS. characters before a standard VBScript function. If you do, an error occurs. Use the HS. characters only before a Financial Management function.

Some Financial Management functions apply only to objects that are children of the HS object. These functions require you to put the applicable object’s name between the HS characters and the function name. These objects are children of the HS object and are used in Financial Management:

• Account

• AppSettings

• Custom

• DataUnit

• Entity

• ICP

• Node

• Parent

• Period

• Scenario

• Value

• Year
