Flow Diagram does not show full relationship

I want to use the Flow Diagram function to see the whole object flow in a TM1 instance, but the diagram is not showing a full relationship.

I have used Currency dimension in many cubes, but the diagram does not show the flow.

However, Technical Documentation shows the cube structures (dimension elements) correctly.

I didn’t change any default setting so “All Levels” is selected & any “Include” or “Exclude” are leaving blanks.
Did I miss some config setting for this issue?

Hi @kwong,

Pulse shows the flow of data not the dimensions that are part of a cube.

It would be helpful to have an alternate relationship diagram which is object relationship orientated rather than data flow orientated as this is more useful for admins and developers when performing any impact analysis due to requested changes or enhancements on a system. I hope this is something which is at least on the Pulse 6 roadmap. Or if not in Pulse then in Arc, but there is a definate need for this kind of diagram but centered on the relationship betwene TM1 objects.

I would appreciate having a flow diagram that shows how cubes are connected to each other with arrows – one kind of arrow for rules, another for TI. Pulse almost does this now, but I don’t believe you can do it w/o showing all the related TI processes, and I’m wanting a summary diagram that shows the data relationship between the cubes without having to show ALL the TI detail.

This a great idea Robin!

We would add a new option to the Flow Diagram “Only cubes and source” that will show straight arrows if this is a rule and dash arrows for processes. You probably want the source as well in this flow diagram.

The enhancement request is available here: Documentation - Showing a simplied view (only cubes and datasource) (#5082) · Issues · Cubewise CODE / Pulse · GitLab

Cheers,

Vincent
