vi IBM Planning Analytics: New Features
Chapter 1. What's new in Planning AnalyticsNew and updated features are introduced in IBM Planning Analytics and components that are installedwith Planning Analytics, such as TM1 Server, TM1 Web, TM1 Performance Modeler and Cognos Insight®.
Some updates affect only IBM Planning Analytics Local installation and configuration.
The following sections provide brief descriptions of new and changed features, by date of introduction andby component.
Planning Analytics 2.0.4 - February 16, 2018This section provides key information about IBM Planning Analytics 2.0.4.
Local installation and configurationIBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.4 includes the following updates to installation andconfiguration.
Deprecation of 32-bit version of TM1 Server client installation
Planning Analytics Local 2.0.4 is the last release of the 32-bit version of the TM1 Server client installationprogram.
For more information, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg22013654.
TM1 ServerIBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.4 and the cloud release of IBM Planning Analytics 2.0.4 includesthe following features for IBM TM1 Server version 11.2.0.
Encryption at rest
TM1 Server uses a two-tier key management system to encrypt and decrypt server data. TM1 APIs enableand disable data encryption. With the TM1 Server command line utility, you can perform master keyrotations for added security. And, if you need to, you can restore files by using the TM1Crypt utility. Formore information, see the TM1 Server data encryption in the Planning Analytics Installation andConfiguration documentation.
Note: Encryption is not supported for IBM Planning Analytics on cloud. Encryption is available forPlanning Analytics Local customers only. Encryption is not supported on a TM1 Server that is usingreplication and sync. Blobs are excluded from server artifacts that are encrypted by encryption at rest.
Server stability and improved server shutdown
The TM1 Server performs the following tasks to safely shut down the server:
1. Terminates all spawned external processes.2. Cancels all running threads (which is the same as an administrator logging in and canceling all running
threads).3. Collects and produces information and metrics for the shutdown process.4. Sends data to the event log and the server log.
You can use IBM Planning Analytics Administration to start and stop databases.

Change to reporting of memory consumed by feeders in TM1 Server
TM1 Server now reports the memory that is consumed by feeders only once. If there are no changes torules or cube data, the memory consumption represents a static value that is recorded after the serversuccessfully starts. If there are changes to rules, feeders, or cube data during the running of the server,the Memory Used for Feeders value in the }StatsByCube control cube is updated the next time that theserver starts.
Note: The memory accounting is accurate at start-up time. You cannot change your feeders and see whatkind of memory profile is generated without restarting the server.
For more information, see Performance Monitoring Control Cubes(https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSD29G_2.0.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.tm1_op.2.0.0.doc/c_performancemonitoringcontrolcubes_n608ec.html).
Selectively enable multi-threaded query processing
The MTQQuery parameter in the tm1s.cfg file is now set to True by default. You can use a new TI function,EnableMTQQuery(), to selectively enable or disable MTQ applied to running a query with View in TIprocess.
TM1 support for localizable attributes for View, Subset, and TI Processes
TM1 Server supports localizable attributes. You can provide a localized value for the attributes ofDimension, Element, and Cube. TM1 Server automatically returns the correct value for an attribute basedon the user-supplied language locale or preferred language locale setting. You don't need to create analias attribute or text attribute for each language.
In this version of TM1 Server, the View, TI Process, and Subset objects can also have attributes that arelocalizable. For more information, see Attributes and localization.
Sandbox comparisons
To enable sandbox comparisons, you can set EnableSandboxDimension parameter in your tm1s.cfg file.
For more information, see EnableSandboxDimension.
REST API updates
The following changes were made to the TM1 REST APIs:
• You can use the REST API actions ExecuteCubeDrillthrough andExecuteRelationalDrillthrough to preview a datasource. For more information, see Preview adatasource.
• You can rename or copy a folder in the TM1 Server by using the Copy and Move actions that are boundto the Entry entity. Copy creates an Entry with a different name in the target destination and leaves thesource Entry the same. Move creates an Entry with a different name in the target destination andremoves the source Entry. You can specify whether the Entry that is created should be public or private.If the target folder is unspecified, the parent folder of the source is used. If the target Name isunspecified, the name of the source is used.
• You can retrieve elements by supplying either alias or invariant name: The OData-compliant REST APIrequires an application to know the type of the key when asked for dimension element. The suppliedkey can either be invariant name or alias. However, when the type is not known, that is, can be either
2 IBM Planning Analytics: New Features
invariant name or alias, the application cannot determine which one to use. For more information, seeRetrieve elements by supplying either alias or invariant name.
• You can now execute a PUT on the reference of the subset element collection to update the collection.You can execute a DELETE on the reference of the collection to empty the collection. The $filter queryoption can be used to specify which element to be removed. For more information, see Update allelements in a static set.
To learn more, see What's new in 11.2.0 (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSD29G_2.0.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.tm1_rest_api.2.0.0.doc/r_restapi_v1_csdl.html#restapi_v1_csdl_whats_new_11_2_0).
TM1 Performance ModelerIBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.4 and the cloud release of IBM Planning Analytics 2.0.4 includesupdates to IBM Cognos TM1 Performance Modeler.
In IBM Planning Analytics 2.0.4, TM1 Performance Modeler is started as a Java application without aconsole window.

Cognos InsightIBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.4 includes new features for Cognos Insight.
The following features were introduced in IBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.4. For moreinformation, see the Cognos Insight documentation in IBM Knowledge Center.
Autosum
For any widget with numeric values in the grid, you can highlight cells and display their sum and averageat the lower left side of the widget with a count of the number of cells selected.
1. To enable this feature for any widget, from the drop-down menu at the upper left of the widget, selectShow Autosum.
2. Click in the grid to close the menu.3. Highlight any range of numeric cells. For disconnected cells, use Ctrl+click to multi-select cells.
If you select any cells that contain strings, these cells are not included in the count of selected cells.
If none of the cells you select contain numeric data, the average displays NaN (not a number).
Context-sensitive action buttons
You can add parameters that can be synchronized with your TM1 data to an action button that runs aTurboIntegrator (TI) process. When the TI process runs, the parameter is dynamically replaced by thename of the currently selected member of the specified dimension.
For more information, see Adding action buttons that run a script (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSD29G_2.0.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.dsk_ug.2.0.0.doc/t_dsk_work_script.html).

• More efficient cube design• Faster cube processing• Attribute analysis• Structured dimensions• Dynamic analysis• Re-org scenario planning• Planning Analytics Workspace integration and modeling capabilities
8 IBM Planning Analytics: New Features
Multi-threaded feeders
Multi-threaded feeders improve the performance of bulk feeder construction and cube feeder updates byleveraging the number of available CPU cores. Three tm1s.cfg settings (MTFeeders, MTFeeders.AtStartup,and MTFeeders.AtomicWeight) were added to enable and configure this feature. For more information,see multi-threaded feeders in the TM1 Rules documentation.
MDX views as a TI data source
Previously, a view could be created and saved by using MDX expressions. Beginning in this release, theMDX-based view can now be used as a TurboIntegrator data source.
Support for multiple cores on Microsoft Windows
TM1 server multi-threaded queries are no longer limited to 64 CPU cores. Microsoft Windows Platformswith more than 64 processors can take full advantage of this feature and its performance benefits.
IPAddress tm1s.cfg parameter now obsolete
The IPAddress tm1s.cfg parameter is obsolete and has been replaced by IPAddressV4 and IPAddressV6.These parameters allow you to specify whether TM1 client requests are routed through the public orprivate adapter. The default behavior uses the public IP adapter, which requires modifications to firewallprofiles.
New TurboIntegrator Transactional rollback functions
Four new TurboIntegrator functions have been added to assist with managing chores: ChoreRollback,ProcessExitByChore, ProcessRollback, and ProcessExitByChoreRollback. For more information, see theTM1 Reference documentation.
New TM1 REST APIs
Types, actions, and functions have been added or changed in the TM1 REST API schema for IBM TM1Server version 11.0.0.0. These include support for TurboIntegrator debug contexts.

The following features were introduced in IBM Planning Analytics Local release 2.0.0. For moreinformation about these features, see the TM1 Web documentation in IBM Knowledge Center.
Hierarchies in TM1 Web
TM1 websheets can display more than one hierarchy in a dimension.
What's new in Planning Analytics 9
Note: Hierarchies can be viewed in TM1 Web, however, you cannot create hierarchies in TM1 Web. Youmust create hierarchies in Planning Analytics Workspace. For more information, see Planning AnalyticsWorkspace in IBM Knowledge Center.
You can open hierarchies by using Quick Reports in IBM Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel.
Quick Reports (formerly Flex Views) are published as live websheets. A live websheet maintains itsconnection to the TM1 server. If the data on the server changes, the live websheet reflects the change.
For more information about Quick Reports, see Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel in IBM KnowledgeCenter.
Note: Relative proportional spreading and relative percent adjustments are not supported in QuickReports that are opened in TM1 Web.
TM1 Web API enhancements
The TM1 Web API has the following new functionality:
• As of IBM Planning Analytics Local 2.0.0, it is no longer mandatory to use the version of Dojo that isprovided with TM1 Web to load the TM1 Web JavaScript Library modules. TM1 Web now supports usingthe AMD loader from Dojo version 1.7 and later to load the JavaScript Library modules.
• The HTML <head> and <body> tags that are required to use the JavaScript library are simpler.• The tm1web/api/session/session module in the JavaScript library allows users to log in, retrieve
session information based on a session token, and destroy a session based on a session token.• The tm1web/api/session/LoginDialog module in the JavaScript library allows users to display or
destroy a login dialog box.• The tm1web/api/Workbook class in the JavaScript library exposes execution information after an
action button is executed. The onActionButtonExecution method API allows users to replace anexisting Workbook or create a new one when an action button is clicked.
• The tm1web/api/Workbook class and the tm1web/api/CubeViewer class include subset andsubsets set properties and methods.
For more information, see TM1 Web API in the TM1 for Developers documentation.
Relational websheets
TM1 Web now allows you to view relational data on the same websheet as TM1 data. By defining arelational query in an Excel file and then uploading the file to TM1 Web, you can view the results on thesame websheet or tab. This allows you to report on OLAP and relational data together.
For more information, see Working with relational data in websheets (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSD29G_2.0.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.tm1_ug.2.0.0.doc/c_relational_data_websheets.html) in IBM Knowledge Center.
TM1 Web Accessibility
TM1 Web includes accessibility features to help you perform tasks by using only a keyboard. Thesefeatures include keyboard navigation and keyboard access to menus and dialog boxes that are related towebsheets.
• Context menus are accessed by using Shift+F10. The Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys select items fromwithin the context menu.
• To expand or collapse a row in a websheet, you can use the Space bar.
10 IBM Planning Analytics: New Features
• To access the set selector, you can use the Space bar. The Tab key moves you between the search, theArrow keys, and the tree. Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys move you between items in the tree. TheEnter key selects the focused item in the tree.
Note: When you access the set selector, if you press Esc to exit after you make changes, you lose yourfocus on the cell that you originally launched from. You are focused on the main page.
Support for Excel shapes in workbooks
Excel shapes, including basic shapes, arrows, banners, equation shapes, and lines, can be added toworkbooks in TM1 Web. To see the list of supported and unsupported Excel shapes, see the List ofMicrosoft Excel-supported functionality by menu in IBM TM1 Web release 10.2.2 and later.
Single sign-on for TM1 Web
You can configure single sign-on for IBM TM1 Web by using Integrated Login (Kerberos) and theapplication server's security layer. Single sign-on enables HTTP users to log in only once to TM1 Web.
For more information, see Configuring Integrated Login for TM1 Web using Kerberos and SPNEGO in thePlanning Analytics Installation and Configuration documentation.
