Specifying Multiple Values for a Parameter

Some EPM Automate commands accept multiple comma separated parameter values; for example, a run time prompt of type members in business rules, rulesets and templates in a Planning application.

To set more than one member for a Members type of run time prompt named Entities in an EPM Automate command, use a , (comma) as illustrated in the following example for executing the runbusinessrule command.

epmautomate runbusinessrule clearDistData TargetYear=FY19 TargetMonth=Feb Entities=District1,District2

Member names containing special characters such as Space and Comma must be enclosed in quotation marks and escaped using \ (backslash) as shown in the following example:

epmautomate runbusinessrule clearDistData TargetYear=FY19 TargetMonth=Feb Entities="\"District 1\",\"entity_name, with comma\""
