Many-to-many relationship - show all values

Hi,
I'm building a cube in 2008R2 and have a many-to-many relationship through a bridging table but when displaying the results it is effectively an inner join and I would like to see a full outer join with the unknown rows set to "unknown".
I've managed to achieve this by doing a full outer join in the view that creates my bridging table and having an unknown member in my dimensions but then when I added in a dimension that wasn't directly related to the bridging table the unknown rows
were removed again. I was able to get past this by adding a row to my fact table with all the keys set to unknown and the metrics set to zero.
Whilst this works it really does not seem like an ideal solution, especially as previously empty metrics are now returning a zero.
Is there any way to achieve this in SSAS? Perhaps in the way unknown members are processed?
Thanks,

cccparkhill,
What you did is the only way to achieve what you want.
In cubes you connect Dimensions throw Facts. By definition dimensions are
“How do business people describe the data that
results from the business process?”
and facts are “What are we measuring?”, noting the underlined
we can understand that _normally and usually_ the relation between the dimensions and the facts represent incidents happened in the real world ... the way you approach, think, and deal with dimensions and facts in cubes is different than dealing with tables
in normal relational transnational database.
Personally I do what you did when I want to achieve "Left join"

Report -- filter with selection list -- show all values after select page

Hello!
I have the following problem:
- I have a report
- this report can be filtered with a selection-list
- the selection list is based on dynamic LOV and has a null-value
- I added the code of the report the following, to filter the report after choosing a value of the selection list:
... and (instr(type, decode(:P8_FILTER_type, '%null%',type,:P8_FILTER_type)) > 0)
This works very well.
But my problem is: When the user logs out and the next time, he logs in, the selection list shows " --- show all values --- " (my null-display-value) and the report is empty "no values found".
---> I want to show the first time, the page is selected ALL the values of the report. (this is now only possile if I press the button which belongs to the selection list)
I hope, somebody understands my problem.
Thank you so much,
LISA

Hello Lisa,
The first time it's probably NULL.
So what you can do in your where: (instr(type, decode(NVL(:P8_FILTER_type,'%null%'), '%null%',type,:P8_FILTER_type)) > 0)
Off topic: I also wonder if that where clause can't be simpler? Do you rely need the instr?

SelectOneChoice not showing all values from database

Hi!
I have to put a list of values in my select one choice. When I do the query in database, all the values are selected. But, with the same query on JPQL, the select on choice do not show all values in database. Anyone can help me, please?
P.S.: I am using SelectOneChoice with SelectItems, in JDeveloper 11g
Code:
<af:selectOneChoice id="selAction" value="#{row.idCmd}"
unselectedLabel="<Selecione>">
<af:forEach var="alertTypeNode"
items="#{bindings.actionFindAll.iteratorBinding.allRowsInRange}">
<af:selectItem value="#{alertTypeNode.dataProvider.idCmd}"
label="#{alertTypeNode.dataProvider.nmCmd}"
id="si1"/>
</af:forEach>
</af:selectOneChoice>

In your page binding check the rangesize setting for the executable you use - set it to -1.

How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Pivot Tables

Hi Everyone,
Iam stuck with 1 problem please can any 1 help me if u know the solution.
Here is my problem:
How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Oracle BI Pivot Tables?
For example, if you place Region in the pages area, a Region drop-down list allows the user to select a particular region, and see the data for only that region, rather than seeing all the Regions,But by default its not showing "ALL" option in the drop down list ,rather than doing that its showing result for only 1 region by default.
And an other problem with this pages area is, if we palce the multiple attributes in the Pages area in the pivot table, the (Fields)result is showing in vertically, the attributes 1 by 1(Every attribute in a new line) ,rather than showing like that, is there any way to show the results in horizantally?(We want to have it as a seperate drop drown list for every field horizantally not as a concatenated list).

Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
I mean to say can I write
unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.

Infopath - Show All values in Text box From PeoplePicker control (Display Name)

I have One People Picker Control and one Text box.I set Value of Text box to "Display Name" and problem is that it show only First Value.so is there a way to show all values of "Display Name" in Text box ?
Thanks

Thanks
the link that you provied , didnt help me but i dig into "http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/t/19623.aspx" and found solution.
here is my solution :
1- Create one Picker control (i changed name of control to Member ) and one Text Box
2- Set Value of Text box to xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId, ";")'), "..")
3- if you changed name's picker control just Replace "../my:Member/pc:Person" with name's People Picker control on your Form.
Edit 1 : I found out Why the formula in that Blog didn't work.it Because of copy/Paste
Dont Copy/Paste Formula because maybe you get Error . how ? here :
if you copy this formula :
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId,
result will be in Field :
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, ‘concat(pc:AccountId,
Look carefully, you see “..” instead ".." , this why you get Error Because of “
Edit 2 : if you want to show only Display name you can Replace
"pc:AccountId" to "pc:DisplayName".Here is Formula
xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:DisplayName, ";")'), "..")

Any suggestions to show all the appended values in a report?

Hi Lewis75581,
According to your description, you want to show the append changes history of a column in Reporting Services. Right?
In Reporting Services, we don't have a feature to show the change history of a column. However, we can have workaround on SQL level. In SQL Server, we have tables: inserted table and deleted table which contains the recently inserted and deleted records.
In this scenario, we can create a trigger in your database. Once you insert rows into the table, it will be triggered and get those inserted rows. Then insert those rows into another table. Now we can create one more dataset based on this table and display
these inserted rows in our report. This might be the most effective workaround for your requirement. Please refer to a similar thread below:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/dacfb141-a976-489a-acca-789ba90e15de/ssrs-multiple-reports-with-different-parameteres-in-single-window?forum=sqlreportingservices
Reference:
Use the inserted and deleted Tables
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to use QAAWS with a prompt to show ALL values

I have to build a dashboard which has two prompts in it
One for Customer and the other one is Project
Customer prompt should let user to select a customer from the list to display dashboard with the selected customer.Also it should allow user to select ALL from the prompt values to display all customers
There is a object defined in the universe for 'ALL' to use in Web Intelligence report. But for dashboard I don't want to use LiveOffice as it is having many issues when refreshing
I am thinking to use QAAWS as my dashboard is not that complex. It shows all details in spread sheets
How to work in this situation with QAAWS..does not it need to create new objects in the universe or modify exisiting 'ALL' object lovs
Please let me know the easiest way to achieve this

Hi,
I think you can achieve in two ways ...
1. In the QaWS, you've Prompt Parameters next to the prompt, choose "Optional Prompt"; When user runs the report if they kept the selection blank, report runs for ALL
2. In the QaWS, in the Prompt choos "Matches Pattern", and in the Xcelsius dashboard pass "%%" to the selection, and in the selection list for the customer dropdown include one additional cell containing ALL text;
Hope it helps,
Saradhi

Query showing all values

Hi,
I want to build a query which shows all accounts. What I mean even if there is a 0 value for that account in that period i want to see all the values for the account number.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Hello Abhi,
if you set the setting "Access Type for Result Values" to "Master Data" in the properties of your account characteristic in the Query Designer you should see all the accounts from your master data table even the ones that have no values in the cube. Is this what you want to do?

LiveCycle 8.1 on Vista: dropdown list box doesn't show all values

On Vista Business O/S, in LiveCycle 8.1, I am using a dropdown list for 254 items, not dynamically loaded (all values are declared in the definition of the object). When the form runs, the dropdown list appears. I can scroll through the list. However, the scroll stops short, never showing the last few items on the list. Is there some limit I have exceeded or is there some know bug I have encountered or is there some other action I need to take so I can choose any item from the dropdown list? Dropdown list box is defined as user-entered - optional, default <none>. 254 text items, longest item is 19 characters, average item is 10 characters long. Thanks in advance for any help, hints, or tips you provide. Dr. Dave Dyer

Dear Friends....
it seems to be a bug of the SQL Server Data Tools, (SQL Server 2012 SP2)... I did the deploy of my Dashboard, (and details Reports), to my Test Reporting Services Server.. and everything works as expected....
Cheers, Luis

BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS doesn't show all values

Hi,
I am trying to get a list of all possible values for a class.
When I look at it in CT04, I can see more possible values than I get, when I use
BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS
I found the values in CAWN but when I try to save the classification with one of the values, I only can see in CT04, I get the error, that it is not a valid value.
Does anybody have an idea, what could possibly go wrong?
Thanks
Sven

What do I have to provide for "INSTANCE"?
I have got class names but no object ids. Where can I find the id for a given class?
There is no documentation around. (as always)

Sap m select not showing all values from gateway

Hello Experts,
This is the code for my select:
var SelectCondType = new sap.m.Select("SelectCondType", {
   width : "200px"
   var oItemSelectTemplate1 = new sap.ui.core.Item({
             key : "{ID}",
             text : "{Name}"
var sServiceUrl = "blablabla.com:8000/sap/opu/odata/sap/YXM_GWS_BART_SRV";
var oModel = new sap.ui.model.odata.ODataModel(sServiceUrl, false,

SelectCondType.setModel(oModel);
SelectCondType.bindAggregation("items","/cond_type",oItemSelectTemplate1);
The select is showing around 50 (didn't really count em) items while there are like 500 in the gateway...
Any Ideas ?

Drop Down In List From Lookup Does Not show all items in mobile view

I have list called "incident".
I have a list called "locations"
The "incident" list looks up a value from the "location" list as a dropdown.
The location list contains 25 building names.
When I try to fill out the "incident" list in mobile view
the "location" drop down only shows 16 items. I checked the "locations" mobile view limit and set it to 99 to make sure all would show up.
The desktop view for the "incident" list shows all 25 buildings from the "locations" list.
Any advice on how to get those extra 7 locations to show up?
Jef

Still don't have an answer. I'm now looking to use a radio button or something to use as a work-around. If I use a lookup and tell it to allow multiple selections (shows as checkbox) it does not show all values in the mobile view.
If I input each item and choose choice, it only shows up as dropdown. I need radio buttons. If I choose lookup and allow multiple selections, it does not show all the options.
I need some help on this.
