OBIEE 11G Presentation Variable

Working with two column prompts, and I need one to feed off of the other.  I was thinking I need to set one column as a presentation variable, and create sql for the other, so that it responds to the first.  The columns are Organiztion and Department.  The departments will change based on which organization you select.  How do I start this off?
Please advise

SV.......
Ok....so simply clicking the box didn't quite work fully.  Before I posted this, this morning, I attempted what you suggested.   Column 1 = Org  Column 2 = Dept.   I tried this:    select column 2 from table where column 2 = pvcolumn1.  And of course I set the presentation variable on column 1.

  • Issue in OBIEE 11g Presentation service.

    Hi All,
    I found a problem in OBIEE 11g Presentation service, i.e., When i created an analysis with few columns in the criteria, it showed proper result, but when i deleted one column and then again add the same column in the criteria, result did not show the added column.
    Anyone else find this issue?
    Please share your views..
    Regards.

    On the left hand corner you will see list of views in the report, on a basic analysis you will see title and table view. Select the table view and click on edit ( pencil symbol ). A new page opens up, scroll down a little and you will see the columns included and columns excluded sections. Make sure the column that you are trying to add to the report is not present in the excluded list. If it is, drag and drop it above.
    Answer points if question is answered.
    Thanks,

  • OBIEE 11g Session variables

    Would anyone know who to setup the USER session variables in the RPD for OBIEE 11g?
    The security setup we have is LDAP Authentication & Default authenticators in Weblogic. Is there a way to retrieve this in the RPD or in answers?
    Lastly, would proxy (act as) functionality configuration differ from 10g because of the above?
    Thanks.

    All,
    Use VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER) whether you are in the front end or .RPD, :USER doesn't work anymore. Also, there is no need to wrap the syntax in quotes, if you do, it won't de-reference the variable.
    Thanks,

  • Separate Server for OBIEE 11G Presentation Server

    In version 10 of OBIEE many people put the Presentation Server and the OBIEE Application Server on separate servers. Is this architecture possible in OBIEE 11G using the new Fusion framework?

    Hi,
    can your try to start presentation services alone via OPMN command, and then check the sawlog0.log lastest log message..
    example mine,
    D:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startproc ias-component=coreapplication_obips1
    opmnctl startproc: starting opmn managed processes...
    check the staus and also log message
    still if its not working try to reboot your server and then "start all services"
    Thanks

  • OBIEE 11g Presentation Level Session Logging

    Hi All
    I have migrated OBIEE 10g to 11g in which everything is working fine.But when i am looking into the session for physical query in analytics ,iam getting the logical query . i.e. the query on the subject areas instead of the exact physical query.Can anybody help me in this to find my exact physical query.
    Advance Thanks

    Go to Manage> Identity> double click the required user > click on Permission Button > click on Data Filters tab > there select the required column,
    here year column > then set the filter year =2006,07,08.
    for another user follow the same steps then set the filter year= 2009,10,11.
    so when the user login he can only see the restricted data.
    please mark if Helpful/correct.

  • How to pass presentation variable with enclosing single quotes

    HI All,
    As all of you know in 11g, Presentation variable can hold more than one value.So we can pass multiple values to the report through presentation variable.
    If we select x,y,z values from prompt drop down,then those values will be stored like x,y,z in the presentation variable.
    but I would like to store these values with enclosing single quotes like 'x,y,z'
    The reason is I need to pass this variable value as input to BI Publisher sql dataset query where clause.
    Please share your Ideas.
    Thanks,

  • Obiee 11g and custom j2ee app using the same cookie name

    Hi,
    I wrote a same j2ee web application. i'am using authentification through a realm configured in the web.xml.
    This web app is deployed in the same weblogic than obiee 11g. What i want to do is to embed my application in a dashboard using an iframe tag, and use the same login from analytics to my custom web app.
    In this article http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11035_01/wls100/security/thin_client.html#wp1039551, it is said that by default, all web apps in the sames weblogic server are using the same cookie name so that they share authentification between them. However, i have read in the web that analytics in obiee 11g is using a cookie with the name "ORA_BIPS_NQID".
    In the weblogic.xml of my custom application, i set the cookie-name parameter to ORA_BIPS_NQID. However, in the dashbord, it still prompt for authentification to my custom web app.
    How can we share authentification between analytics and a custom web app in the same weblogic ?
    NB : I dont want to pass the username et password through the url.
    Thanks.

    By default, if you don't specify a cookie-name in the weblogic.xml configuration file, the weblogic server create a cookie named JSESSIONID for your application. For exemple, if two applications use the default configuration, both of them will use the same cookie name which is JSESSIONID. In this case, when you log in the first application, your are automaticaly logged in the second application with the same credentials. I have already test this kind of integration and it works perfectly. You only need that the two applications are deployed in the same weblogic server.
    Now, i want to have the same behaviour between obiee 11g and my custom application deployed in the same weblogic server. I read somewhere in the web that obiee 11g presentation service (analytics) is configured with a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID". So in the weblogic.xml configuration file of my web app, i specify a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID" to have the same cookie-name between the two application. But, it still not work. It prompt for authentification in the dashboards.
    I now, that such an integration is possible, because the other bi applications (mapviewer, bipublisher,...) are actually other web applications. However when using, for exemple, maps in dashbords, the mapviwer application automaticaly user the credentials of the user connected in analytics.

  • OBIEE 11g Prompt's default value doesn't work with a presentation variable

    Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g and I have two dashboard prompts (Product Name and Product Number). Theses prompts are hierarquical, so the values that are displayed in the Product Number prompt have dependency with the values chosen on the Product Name prompt. This I was able to do, but now I want to put a default value on the Product Number prompt. The steps are:
    1 - The user chooses the value for the Product Name Prompt and by doing that the Product Number prompt is automatically filled with the correspondent value.
    But unfortunatelly this is not working, after choosing the value for the Product Name the default value for Product Number is not displayed (when you open the prompt the values displayed are correct and already filtered considering the Product Name but the prompt is not automatically filled with the default value).
    What I did is:
    On the Product Name Prompt I've created a Presentation Variable called PROD.
    On the Product Number Prompt I've selected:
    1 - For the "Choice List Values" field I've checked the option "Limit Values by All Prompts"
    2 - For the "Default Selection" field I've chosen the SQL Results option and enter the following SQL:
    SELECT "Products"."Product Number" FROM "Sample Sales Lite"."Products" WHERE "Products"."Product"='@{variables.PROD}
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you,
    Carla

    Sorry I was wrong in my previous thread.
    Actually your approach is not correct, Product Number choose constraint that will show as per the selection of Product Name.
    Coming to default value for Product Number you are going for sql override that is okay but not work with variable, instead of setting default values for product number set that to product name.
    if not you need to go for 2 different prompts
    Prompt 1 Product Name hit GO
    Prompt 2 will work based on as you defined earlier with variables
    Hope this helps

  • Presentation Variable in obiee 11g

    Hi all ,
    I had a dashboard report with year , quarter , month and order type name as prompts .
    Now my client requirement is , when order type name is "Ord" , the reports with order type name starting with 'ORD" should be displayed.
    In simple i know we will use " Like" operator .
    But now my problem is we have to assign a presentation variable for order type name.
    So can some one tell me how to add a presentation variable in OBIEE 11g , i tried in web , but none of it helped me to finish the job ,, since i am very new to obiee can some one please explain me in non technical language
    Thank you for your help

    Hi Jay , Thank you very much for reply , now i got a little idea , but few doubts abt ur reply .
    Yes i will edit dashboard prompt and assign a like operator and will save the prompt , but when editing the report , you said to apply a filter *LIKE @{presentation_variable}{default_value}%*
    In the above what will be in place of presentation_variable and what should be in default_value.
    I have tried it in this way : Like @{Sales Order Lines Order Type Name} , where Sales Order Lines Order Type Name is my dashboard prompt .
    but it didn't worked when i have given 'Ord' in dashboard prompt the error says: Sales Order Lines Order Type Name is LIKE (pattern match) ord

  • Presentation Variable issue in OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    I have 2 reports, report 1 and report 2
    When i drill down on report 1 column 'Number of id's' will open the details report of Id's report 2
    I am using a Presentation variable in report 2 filters (detail report) which is generated in Main report dasnbord prompt.
    They have separate star schema.
    Main report(reprot1) using Aggregated table.
    Sub report(report2) using detail table.
    Problem:
    After upgradation from OBIEE 10.1.3.4 to OBIEE 11.1.1.5,(Unix server) The presentation variable value is not getting passed to the detail report. This is working completely fine in OBIEE 10g.
    Is there any BUG in OBIEE 11g wrt presentation variable or do we want to change the configuration?
    Thanks,
    Satheesh

    Hi,
    Not sure about the behaviour in 11g, but we faced a similar issue in 10g while passing the presentation varaibles to detail report where main/detail report where coming from different subject areas. The behavior was a little unpredictable. To overcome this, we tried using request variable instead of presentation variable and it worked for us.
    You can give it a try by doing the same and see if it works for you.
    Thanks

  • Can I pass parameters from a dashboard via a dashboard prompt and presentation variable to publisher report based on a data model with select statements in OBIEE 11g ?

    I have a publisher 11g (v 11.1.1.7)  report with a single parameter. The report is based on a data model not a subject area.  I created a dashboard put a dashboard prompt and link to the report in separate section on the same page.  The dashboard prompt sets a presentation variable named the same as the parameter in the report. 
    The problem was when I created the dashboard prompt, it forced me to select a subject area which I did (though did not want to) and then I created both a column and variable prompts. But clicking on the
    report link completely ignored the value that I thought would be passed in the presentation variable to the report.
    Side note :  My report uses a pdf template for its layout where I have mapped the columns names from my data model to the form fields on the pdf form.  I noticed that if I create a publisher report based on a subject area, then I do not have the choice to choose a PDF as a template type for my layout.  (I only see BI Publisher Template as a choice). 
    I see some documentation online that suggest it could be done in 10g.
    Thanks

    Ok,
    I just tried that and it still doesn't pass anything to the prompt.
    I changed the prompt to an edit field and I made the following weblink but when i click the link from an account it doesn't put anything in the prompt and all data for all accounts is shown.
    This is the URL maybe I messed something up...
