Any examples of a data template using multiple data sources?

I'm looking for an example report using multiple data sources. I've seen one where they do a master/detail but I'm just looking to combine results in sorted order (sorted across all data sources). The master/detail used a bind variable to link the two defined queries, I'm thinking what I want won't have that, so I'm lost on how to make that happen. I have reports using multiple sql queries and there is a way in the data source pulldown to tell it to combine the data sources. It appears to be a more manual process with data templates, if it's even possible.
Any pointers/links would be appreciated.

Hi Vetsrini :
That's just it. Mine is simpler than that. There is no master/detail relationship between the two queries. I have the same exact query that I run in two databases and I want to merge the results (ordered, by, say eventTime) in one report. So I think my results are going to be two separate groups (one for each data source) which I'll have to let BI merge vis XSLT or whatever it uses. That's fine for small result sets but for larger ones, it would be nice if the database did the sorting/merging.

How to set #HOST# variable used in Chart template using Multiple Domains?

I have a extended question to How can I set #HOST# variable referenced in the Chart template?
In addition to the Proxy layer, we are looking to use multiple sub-domain names into the same Oracle APEX instance (through the one DAD) each mapped to a different application id. Therefore I don't think the solution in the link will work for me - as this embeds a single domain name in the DADS.CONF.
Two questions:
- Is it possible to set the "HTTP_HOST" in "dads.conf" using an existing HTTP Header value? - my proxy can pass on the original domain as "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST". So if it was possible to use (say: using whatever form/syntax of parameterisation is available) ?
>
PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_HOST=%{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST}
>
If it can then that would work for me. It would be great if modl_plsql handled this out of the box as I understand the "X-FORWARDED" approach is pretty standard in the proxy world including passing on original IP addresses. Hitting an phpinfo() site shows headers
>
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR     192.168.2.100
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST     dev.mycompany.com:443
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_SERVER     mycompany.com
>
- Alternatively is it possible in APEX environment to set the #HOST# from the HTTP Header "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST" if it exists for all requests?
Thanks

Hi Donna,
changing the CGI environment variables HTTP_HOST, REQUEST_PROTOCOL and SERVER_PORT is the correct way how to resolve this, because it appears that your hiding the web server where you have installed mod_plsql or EPG by a different outside facing web server (also called reverse proxy). That's why APEX gets the host name, protocol and port of the internal web server, but should actually get the values of your reverse proxy web server. Can can fix that by changing the following CGI environment variables.
HTTP_HOST should just contain the domain name (no protocol or port). For example: www.oracle.com
REQUEST_PROTOCOL should contain http or https
SERVER_PORT should be the port for https
I don't want to add a new cgi variable called HOST because HOST sounds so generic and it might interfere with something else running in our environment. Or, I don't want to change the plsql cgi environment variable (such as HTTP_HOST) because many developers may use owa_util.get_cgi_env('HTTP_HOST') to get the current server. If the SERVER_PORT is part of the #HOST# then what could I change it to if it needs to be null. If you leave it blank, then the default SERVER_PORT comes from the CGI variables.The value of HTTP_HOST is wrong anyway and points to your internal web server, but I assume your developers actually want to get the host name of your external web server if they use it to generate absolute URLs. That's why I wouldn't bother and set it to the correct host name.

Query regarding using multiple physical sources

Hi All,
Facing an issue in fetching data from multiple physical sources in OBIEE,
We have 2 facts tables on different databases, having same columns.
How can we get results from both the tables in the presentation layer.
I created one Logical Fact table, added both sources to it, but results are displayed only from logical source which i added first.
OBIEE version:
10.1.3
OS Windows
Thanks,
Nik

Hi Nikhil,
If you have identical columns in both the sources, obiee will always choose only one LTS .To understand how to force multiple LTSs in query, check this thread:
2 table sources in LTS but only 1 in query?

Data Template using Multiple XML's

I have a requirement to create a data template with data from multiple XML files and this is dynamic based on user selection.
Here is an example
Data Hirerachy
|-PO Header (POHeader.xml)
|-----PO Line (POLine.xml)
|-----PO Receipts (POreciepts.xml)
Now use can choose to print all children or selectively one child . I can do it by creating 3 data templates and then using the appropriate one based on user selection. I am exploring the possibility to use one single dynamic data template created on the fly and passed to the publisher.
Appreciate any pointer to achieve this

How to Transform using multiple input sources to one target

Hello - I'm trying to figure out a way in which I can map retrieved values from more than one table (defined via db adapter links) into a single target flat file (defined via file adapter). I can establish a 1-1 transformation process fine, but when I define a second transformation activity for another table I get an error when I try to run the BPEL process. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try next? Thanks for helping out the rookie!
P.S. I'm running SOA Suite 10.1.3.1 with Jdeveloper 10.1.3.1 and connecting to an MS-SQL Server database

Hi,
if i understand your question:
you are getting several variables with values from the db adapters.
you want to put these variables to the variable, which is the input for the file adapter (this procedure is called the assignment).
you want to do this assignment with transformations.
you have to ways to solve that:
use the assign, which is much less comfortable.
or
ask for a feature enhancement via metalink that a transformation support more than one input...

Oracle ADF RichSelenium class - any examples on how to use this?

Digging around the net and found that there is a class for Selenium testing ADF Rich components, namely oracle.adf.view.rich.automation.selenium.RichSelenium located in oracle_common\modules\oracle.adf.view_11.1.1\adf-richclient-automation-11.jar.
I've been searching for half a day now and cannot find any example code on how to use RichSelenium class for the life of me.
There are examples of using Selenium with ADF (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/adf/part6-094560.html) but not using RichSelenium.
Any lead or information would be highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

OK figured out how to start using this RichSelenium class and thought I'd post my findings on this thread for the sake of anyone else who wants to know. Here's my code:
-- START OF CODE
package my.richselenium.test;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.junit.After;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverCommandProcessor;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
* Base test class for handling common functionality across tests - setting up web driver, retrieving URL and cleaning
* up and resources.
public class myTest {
public void runTest() {
// Create WebDriver
WebDriver myWebDriver = new FirefoxDriver();
// Setup Web Driver Command Processor
WebDriverCommandProcessor wdcp = new WebDriverCommandProcessor("http://www.google.com", this.driver);
// Instantiate RichSelenium class object
RichSelenium rs = new RichSelenium(wdcp);
// Load specific URL
rs.open("http://www.oracle.com");
// Let's do some RichSelenium specific processing
String [] someArray = rs.getAllFields();
List<String> someList = Arrays.asList(someArray);
// for loop advance
for (String temp : someList ) {
System.out.println(temp);
rs.close();
-- END OF CODE

Excel Functions Do Not Work When Data Source is BW

Hello,
My platform is, BOBJ BI 4.0. Data source is SAP BW. BW is connected to XCelsius with BEx. My problem is, excel functions do not work when data source is BW. For example, Excel cell A1=quantity1 B1= quantity2 C1= excel function "=A1+B1" When data source is Excel, for example A1=5, B1=9 C1 automatically equals to 14. (There is no problem when data source is Excel) But, in BW, for example when BW set values to A1=5, B1=9, the system does not calculate C1. C1 always equals to initial value, the system does not care any excel calculation when data source is BW. Any guess for my problem? Thank you for your effort.

Hi,
As you are using very simple formula,it will work no matter which source you are consuming.As mentioned,try to place a simple component(Eg:spreadsheet),just to check whether you are getting the right calculated value or not.
As you are using BW as source,the Preview option will not show the runtime data,so you need to publish in Portal to check whether the calculation happened or not.
As far as I know only few fromulas are supported in Xcelsius,but these kind of simple formulas are very much supported.

Cdc on multiple joined source datastores

Hi gurus,
There are multiple source datastores and one target datastore in my interface.All of source datastores will be modified by ct application in future,How to enable cdc on multiple source datastores ?Is there any "thumb of rule" for cdc of multiple joined source datastores?
Source: DB2/AS400
Target: SQL SERVER 2000
Thanks
nan

Hi nan,
As i wasn't tried CDC on the source and target you specified,to give you a hint,
For achieving CDC on multiple data stores, you can use JKM Consistent mode. This will make sure that all your data stores within the particular model will be CDC'ed and PK and FK relations will be maintained.
Thanks,

Change Data Source for a lot of Crystal Report

I have a lot of reports which use Visual FoxPro as datasource. We will mirgrate to MS SQL Server and change the names of tables. Is there any way to set data source to new table in new ODBC other than do it manually ? Please advice.
Thanks.

Hi Leo,
If you use Business Objects Enterprise, then you can use a tool called 'Schedule Manager' to update the datasource of all your reports to SQL Server - at one go!
If you don't then, well, it gets laborious and you'll have to get into every single report and use 'Set datasource location' within CR.

Add external data sources to Webi 4.1 (xls, txt)

Hello,
What is the best way (if any) to allow my users to add in their external data sources to Web Intelligence 4.1? So that they can join this with Universes or just create stand alone Webi reports from their own External sources like Excel spreadsheets, .TXT or CSV files?
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the feedback,
We are actually using 4.1.1 (service pack 1) and when I'm logged in as the Administrator with 'Full Control' to Webi I only can select the following data sources (see attached):
- No data source
- Universe
- BEx
- Analysis View
I can upload both Excel Files and Text Files to Webi no problem via --> Documents --> New Local Document but can't seem to access either of them by using any of the above data source selections.
With 4.1.1 is there another access level or privilege I need to enable to allow folks to get at external sources? If so, how?
THANKS,
Matt

What is the data source to populate ODS 0FIGL_O10

Hi,
The data source 0FI_GL_10 is not available in my source system(OLTP system), so from where should i populate the ods 0figl_o10?
When i installed the ods from business content it automatically took the data source as 0fi_gl_10. but when i try to upload data, ie, when i assign data source to the infosource 0fi_gl_10 in RSA1, the source system does not show 0fi_gl_10. Normally we transfer the data source in source system and replicate it in BW, but this particular data source is not available in source system.
Any idea on which data source should we use instead of 0fi_gl_10?

Pradhiba
