Oracle 11g Pivot table

Hi,
I have 2 questions on the pivot query below:
1 - I want to have total by Country and Year
2 - I want to allow the use a dynamic year range (like year between 1990 and 2000)
Thanks,
Ribhi
select * from (
select CNTRY_NAME, MYYEAR,AM_AMOUNT
from yearly_lending t
pivot
sum(AM_AMOUNT)
for MYYEAR in (1974,1975,1976,1977,1978,1979,1980,1981,1982,1983,1984,1985,1986,1987,1988,1989,1990,1991,1992,1993,1994,1995,1996,1997,1998,1999,2000,2001,2002,2003,2004,2005,2006,2007,2008,2009)
order by CNTRY_NAME

Ribhi,
Although there are people here that could answer your question, it's better suited for the SQL forum as it's not Apex related.
PL/SQL

Help with oracle 11g pivot operator

i need some help with oracle 11g pivot operator. is it possible to use multiple columns in the FOR clause and then compare it against multiple set of values.
here is the sql to create some sample data
create table pivot_data ( country_code number , dept number, job varchar2(20), sal number );
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'SALESMAN', 5000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'SALESMAN', 5500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'MANAGER', 10000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'MANAGER', 10500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'CLERK', 4000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,302, 'CLERK',4500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'SALESMAN', 6000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'SALESMAN', 6500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'MANAGER', 11000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'MANAGER', 11500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'CLERK', 3000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,302, 'CLERK',3500);
using case when I can write something like this and get the output i want
select country_code
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_sls
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'MANAGER' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'MANAGER' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_mgr
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'CLERK' ) or ( dept = 302 and job = 'CLERK' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_clrk
from pivot_data group by country_code;
output
country_code          D30_SLS               D30_MGR               D30_CLRK
1      5250      10250      4250
2      6250      11250      3250
what I tried with pivot is like this I get what I want if I have only one ( dept,job) for one alias name. I want to call (30 , 'SALESMAN') or (301 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls. any help how can I do this
SELECT *
FROM pivot_data
PIVOT (SUM(sal) AS sum
FOR (dept,job) IN ( (30 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls,
          (30 , 'MANAGER') AS d30_mgr,
(30 , 'CLERK') AS d30_clk
this is a simple example .... my real life scenario is compliated with more fields and more combinations .... So something like using substr(dept,1,2) won't work in my real case .
any suggestions get the result similar to what i get in the case when example is really appreciated.

Hi,
Sorry, I don't think there's any way to get exactly what you requested. The values you give in the PIVOT ... IN clause are exact values, not alternatives.
You could do something like this to map all alternatives to a common value:
WITH     got_dept_grp     AS
     SELECT     country_code, job, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job IN ('SALESMAN', 'MANAGER') AND dept = 301 THEN 30
              WHEN job IN ('CLERK')               AND dept = 302 THEN 30
                                                                 ELSE dept
          END     AS dept_grp
     FROM     pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_dept_grp
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     (job, dept_grp)
     IN     ( ('SALESMAN', 30)
          , ('MANAGER' , 30)
          , ('CLERK'   , 30)
;In your sample data (and perhaps in your real data), it's about as easy to explicitly define the pivoted groups individually, like this:
WITH     got_pivot_key     AS
     SELECT     country_code, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job = 'SALESMAN' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_sls'
              WHEN job = 'MANAGER' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_mgr'
              WHEN job = 'CLERK'    AND dept IN (30, 302) THEN 'd30_clrk'
          END     AS pivot_key
     FROM    pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_pivot_key
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     pivot_key
     IN     ( 'd30_sls'
          , 'd30_mgr'
          , 'd30_clrk'
;Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; that really helps!

The Solaris DBA should be able to mount the filesystem for you. Either that or you have to get creative transferring the file like this;

I'm not sure, but maybe you should get rid of the redundancy that you have in your CREATE TABLE statement.
This line covers all fields:
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
{code}
So I would change the field list to:
{code}
DATE1 CHAR (10),
DATE2 CHAR (10),
POL_PRTY CHAR (30),
P_NAME CHAR (30),
P_ROLE CHAR (5)
{code}
It worked on my installation.

11g - pivot table bug?

hi, experts,
I have run the utility to migrate 10g dashboard to 11g.
after the migration, I found that there is problem in a pivot table report,
the report contains 3 columns:
brand , subbrand, quantity
brand and subbrand are dimension
quantity is fact.
when brand and subbrand are placed in ROWS, quantity in MEASURES, Measure Labels in Columns, the pivot table gives correct result.
however, when brand is placed in ROWS, quantity in MEASURES, subbrand and Measure Labels in Columns,
the pivot table gives incorrect result,
some rows are duplicated.
how to solve?

Hi,
Yes, we too faced this issue in 1.5 (seems a bug), but ultimately we had to make the application work for the column heading.
Use left and Right Indent accordingly to make the text appear to your requirement. We specified left indent 20 for our reports for making it centered, so you can try a value which will align for your requirement.
And thus meeting the requirement :)
Hope this answered.
Regards
MuRam

11g Pivot Table Prompt Totals

I've created a pivot table in which I have two columns listed in the Pivot Table Prompts area (formerly known as the pages area in 10g).
When editing the pivot table, the Layout section shows a summation icon beside the words Pivot Table Prompts. I've clicked that icon, and selected before.
The dropdown list for the first-listed (leftmost) column in the Pivot Table Prompts now shows an entry of All Values above the detail values, as it should.
However, the dropdown list for the other column does NOT have an All Values entry.
Furthermore, selecting the All Values entry for the first column HIDES the dropdown list for the second column entirely, and the pivot table shows a grand total of all values for the second column.
This makes no sense. I want to see All Values for my first column, and still be able to select individual values for my second column, or perhaps select an All Values for the second column.
There is zero documentation on this feature, as the OBIEE 11g User Guide does not contain the string Pivot Table Prompts.
Has this been reported as a bug?

Well, I'll be darned. You are exactly right. 10g behaves exactly the same way when using two page dropdowns.
So yes, it was inherited from 10g. But then again, I inherited high blood pressure from my parents. That doesn't make it a desirable trait.
And there IS an obvious workaround: just create an ALL VALUES calculated member for each of those dimensions.
Thanks for the reply. Credit given for the correct answer.

How to move excluded items into Measures in OBIEE 11g Pivot Table

Hi All,
Need your help. Previously I have about 25 facts in my pivot table as rows. Now I need to add about 10 more. Adding new criteria only put the items into Excluded section. How can I move all these new items at once to the end of the existing facts? What I can do now is moving them one by one, and in the middle of existing facts, then move it again, because I can point my cursor to the end of them directly.
Thanks a lot,
Gajah.

I've tried to drag the fact heading, but I can't point my cursor to the end of existing list of facts (unfortunately they are all in the same fact group name). Do you have any suggestion on how to put the new facts at the end of the list?
Thanks.

Oracle answers pivot table grand total problem

hi All,
I am working with OBI dashboard. I have a problem in creating a pivot table. To make it simple assume I have 3 columns: Sales, Target Sales, and %Diff. I added a total row but the problem is the total for %Diff is actually the average of the column instead of the %Diff between "total Sales" and Total "Target Sales". The aggregation rule for %Diff is set to Avg. and "Show data as" is set to Value.
I have seen the same problem here before in some forums.
Can anybody help me on this?
Thanks
Sana

the problem is the data is coming from Discoverer (another team converted data from disco. to OBI anwsers) so I do not have access to Biz model.
is there any other way for that?
thanks

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.

Aseet

More on the pivot table processing in coherence

hello, all:
I posted a question regarding how to create a pivot table in coherence (coherence and pivot table
Now I am on a project that my mgr wanted me to query a coherence cache and return a subset in "pivot" structure.
Suppose I send a request from the client with these info: String[] rows, String[] columns, String[] data. Each of them represent rows area, columns area and data area as in a Excel table. The aggregation is limited to sum for now.
I managed to create some code like this:
public Map<Object, Object> sum(Filter filter, String properties, String[] targets){
          EntryAggregator[] entryAggregators = new EntryAggregator[targets.length];
          for(int idex = 0;idex<targets.length;idex++){
               entryAggregators[idex] = new DoubleSum(targets[idex]);
          MultiExtractor me = new MultiExtractor(properties);
          EntryAggregator ca = CompositeAggregator.createInstance(entryAggregators);
          GroupAggregator ga = GroupAggregator.createInstance(me,ca);
          return aggregate(filter, ga);
     }here properties represent rows: "getX,getY,getZ" ; targets represent data to aggreated on: targets[] {"getA","getB"}
There are two relevant questions:
1. I am not able to put the columns info into the code;
2. the return type above is Map<Object, Object> , printing map looks like
+{[Parts, Appliance, Trash compactor],[214.5, 1.0]}...+
with 3 rows (X,Y,Z) in the first segment, and aggreated 2 values (A,B) in the 2nd segment.
how can I exact these values from a map structure (it seems the key/value are map themselves), and design a "pivot" structure to host them?
I hope I've made myself clear.
Thanks,
Johnny

Hi Johnny,
Your question intrigued me so I thought I would do a bit of digging into how you might replicate a pivot table using aggregators. Well, it has taken me a few days and as it is quit a long subject I wrote it up on my blog rather than post it all in the forum http://thegridman.com/coherence/oracle-coherence-pivot-table-queries/
You were on the right track with the GroupAggregator but there is a bit more to do to allow all the different combinations of rows, columns and values as well as filtering.
I hope what I have written up is clear enough, just ask if you have more question.

OBIEE 11g - How to create clean looking pivot tables

Hi, does anyone have a good way to clean up the appearance of pivot tables in OBIEE 11g? I'm a big fan of Stephen Few and firmly believe in the "minimize non-data ink" theory. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lot of stuff on OBIEE pivots that I can't easily clean up. Does anyone have ideas for:
1. How to remove the "gray" / "beige" coloring from column and row dimension? I opened a ticket with Oracle 6 months ago, and basically they've just responded that it is a "enhancement request" for a future version (aka not going to see it for a LONG time)
2. For my "across" dimension, I don't seem to have a good way to show the dimension name. There is an option under "column properties" to "display heading" - but when this is turned on it scrunches the heading up directly over the column that has the down dimension members. I really want this to go across the pivot.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Help on pivoting in oracle 11g

Hello,
I trying build a dynamic report with unlimited rows and columns. So I have 3 tables. The first table has report names mean while the second and the third tables have rows and columns information respectively.
-- table for report
reportid reportname
1 purchase
2 vendor
-- table for report rows
rowid rowname reportid
1 soap 1
2 shampoo 1
--table for report columns
colid colname reportid
1 liquid 1
2 kids 1
From those tables, I want to have a result like:
rowname liquid 1 kids 2
soap
shampoo
How do I obtain this kind of result using pivot in oracle 11g? If I can have, end users have to enter some values to the soap and liquid row, soap and kids rows,... Then I have to execute some query getting new values and column id.
Thank you.

Thank you.hows does actual report generation know, decide, or determine
from which table the actual columns are to be obtained?
some,many, most reports join two or more tables.
How does this design support joining tables required for reporting against more than 1 table?
some,many,most reports contain computed values like SUM(), COUNT(), etc.
Are you conceding that none of your reports will contain any of these values?

XML Publisher Report Fails While using Pivot Table in R12 Oracle EBS

Hello All,
Need your help. I am trying to create a report with a Pivot table. I have created the .rtf file using the Oracle BI Publisher Template Builder for word 10.1.3.4.1. the data comes correctly in preview but when i register it in EBS and run the concurrent program it competes in warning and no output is displayed.
The error message looks like as follows.
