Documentation explains both functions well and with examples, so I encourage you to look into them. Especially first two examples for %ALL function

ALLMEMBERS -- function that returns a set of all members of the given level or hierarchy
http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=...

%ALL -- function that enables you to use a member while ignoring any ROW and COLUMN context that uses the hierarchy to which this member belongs.
http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=...

As to your question about calculating percentage of the top level, here is sample that for each product calculates revenue percentage of total from all products (2nd column) and from category for this product (3rd column).

Sample pivot

RevenuePctOfAllProducts and RevenuePctOfParent are calculated measures that defined as follows:

RevenuePctOfAllProducts:

Measures.[Amount Sold] / SUM(Product.[All Product].%ALL, Measures.[Amount Sold])

RevenuePctOfParent:

Measures.[Amount Sold] / SUM(Product.CurrentMember.Parent, Measures.[Amount Sold])

So the full query looks like:

WITH
MEMBER [MEASURES].[RevenuePctOfAllProducts] AS 
    'Measures.[Amount Sold] / SUM(Product.[All Product].%ALL, Measures.[Amount Sold])' 
MEMBER [MEASURES].[RevenuePctOfParent] AS 
    'Measures.[Amount Sold] / SUM(Product.CurrentMember.Parent, Measures.[Amount Sold])'
SELECT NON EMPTY {[Measures].[Amount Sold],
                  [MEASURES].[REVENUEPCTOFALLPRODUCTS],
                  [MEASURES].[REVENUEPCTOFPARENT]} ON 0,
    NON EMPTY HEAD(NONEMPTYCROSSJOIN([Product].[P1].[Product Category].Members,[Product].[P1].[Product Name].Members),2000) ON 1 
FROM [HOLEFOODS]

Yes, Illegal CSP Request usually means that access to this particular class is prohibited.

If your web application named '/csp/healthshare/mhclib/' then you need to enable classes as follows:

set ^SYS("Security","CSP","AllowClass","/csp/healthshare/mhclib/","%SOAP.WebServiceInfo")=1
set ^SYS("Security","CSP","AllowClass","/csp/healthshare/mhclib/","%SOAP.WebServiceInvoke")=1

Notice that calling SOAP Service via test webpage (%SOAP.WebServiceInvoke.cls) is independent from calling web service via SOAP protocol. For that you should check option "Inbound Web Services" in Web application settings.

%SOAP.WebServiceInfo and %SOAP.WebServiceInvoke are just pages to test web services via Browser.

SOAP protocol itself does not use these pages.

Message
"An error occurred with the CSP application and has been logged to system error log (^ERRORS)"

means that you can check error in Management Portal -> System Operation -> System Logs -> Application Error Log -> [Namespace]

Or for debugging purposes set error page for web application to %CSP.Error.cls
http://docs.intersystems.com/cache20161/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?...

and see errors on the page itself

Hi Randy.

FILTER option in SETTINGS references "Allowed Default Values for Filters" section of doc
http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=...

You can specify set of members as follows:

"{&[keyval1],&[keyval2],&[keyval3]}"

Then you need to URL encode this value:
http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=...

Particularly by replacing & with %26 and , with %2C

For example, if I want to pass to "Basic Dashboard Demo" several values for Home Zip Code filter I need to create following string:

&SETTINGS=FILTER:[HomeD].[H1].[ZIP].{&[32006],&[32007]}

And then URL encode it to

&SETTINGS=FILTER:[HomeD].[H1].[ZIP].{%26[32006]%2C%26[32007]}

Hi Blaise.

Does following query looks like what you need?

With Member Measures.[RunningTotal] As 
     'AGGREGATE(%TIMERANGE(DateOfSale.[Actual].[MonthSold].&[201101],DateOfSale.CurrentMember),
                MEASURES.[Amount Sold])',FORMAT_STRING='$#,#.#' 
SELECT {Measures.[Amount Sold],Measures.[RunningTotal]} ON 0,  
        [DateOfSale].[Actual].YearSold.&[2016].CHILDREN ON 1 
FROM HOLEFOODS

It prints two columns -- Revenue in current month and Total revenue from 2011-01 up to current month. Rows are months of 2016 year.

As far as I know it is not possible to switch it on.

You might find function DESCENDANTS (http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=...) helpful.

For time dimension, all members of the level are generated and available to queries that show empty. This means

SELECT DESCENDANTS([DateOfSale].[YearSold].&[2015],DateOfSale.DaySold) ON 1 FROM HoleFoods

will show all days from 2015 on rows, whether there are facts recorded for those days or not.

SQL Adapter does some metadata caching.

See, for example, doc for method EnsLib.SQL.Common:ExecuteProcedure
http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic.cls?P...

"Appending a '#' to the pIO argument (or passing only '#') prevents the adapter from using cached DescribeColumns() results for the procedure call output, forcing a fresh call to ODBC DescribeColumns() every time the stored procedure is invoked. This can be necessary if the procedure is capable of returning different sequences of result types from consecutive invocations"

I'm not sure if this is what happened in this case, though.

By default %ToJSON method prints empty properties.

If you pass pFormat without "e" flags (that is passed by default), then empty properties are skipped:

USER>set p = ##class(%ZEN.proxyObject).%New()

USER>set p.a = 1

USER>set p.b = 2

USER>do p.%ToJSON()
{
        "a":1,
        "b":2
}
USER>set p.b = ""

USER>do p.%ToJSON()
{
        "a":1,
        "b":""
}
USER>do p.%ToJSON(,"alotw")
{
        "a":1
}

I encourage you to use Caché 2016.1 with native JSON support. Don't start with %ZEN.proxyObject.
See great article by Stefan Wittman about JSON support in 2016.1:

The first time a message is added to a domain by $$$Text, $$$SessionLanguage is used:
http://docs.intersystems.com/cache20152/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?...

$$$SessionLanguage is determined by locale of current process, that is by default is the same as locale of Caché instance
http://docs.intersystems.com/cache20152/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?...

Default locale for Caché instance is determined during installation based on OS locale. For example, on English Windows that has Russian in Regional Settings, Caché is installed with locale rusw (ruw8 for 8-bit installation). You can change locale after installation. There is no option to select locale during installation.

You can change current session language with ##class(%MessageDictionary).SetSessionLanguage("ru")

Hi Blaise. There is query ErrorLog in %CSP.UI.System.BackgroundTask class so you can print errors like follows:

USER>do ##class(%ResultSet).RunQuery("%CSP.UI.System.BackgroundTask","ErrorLog",3932)

3932 here is task id.

And print errors to file:

USER>set file="c:\temp\sqlerrors.txt"
 
USER>open file:"NW":5
 
USER>use file do ##class(%ResultSet).RunQuery("%CSP.UI.System.BackgroundTask","ErrorLog",3932)
 
USER>close file

Notice that %CSP.UI.System.BackgroundTask is marked for internal use only.
