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

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,

Data level Security issue in obiee 11g

Hi,
We are trying to implement data level security, let me explain the issue
The requirement is, we have 7 schools and each school has one principle , there will be a Superdintent who has 3 schools under him. so now when each principle logs in to dashboard we have a prompt for school i.e Name of school in that prompt he should see only his school and even the data of that school only which are assigned to him, now when Superdintent logs in he should see all 3 schools in the prompt and data. I have gone through this link (http://www.rittmanmead.com/2012/03/obiee-11g-security-week-row-level-security/) but could not achieve.
We are able to achieve by writing SQL in BMM layer ( LTS Table) so where ever the table is used in dashboards the security is being applied and we are able to see what we want. We want to achieve this by application role, But when we are creating session variables and applying on Application Role its not working. We want to achieve this by using Application role because suppose in other dashboards when the table is not used or pulled in, it will not work.But if we do it using application role its applies to all dashboards and data is resticted. so that when principle or Superdintent logs in automatically its restricts the data.
Below is the SQL which we used in BMM LTS, its working fine. But when the same SQL is applied in Application Role it's not working.
SQL used in session variable -
select 'SCHOOL_CD1', school_cd1 from w_staff_d where empl_id ='VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER)'
and job_desc1 = 'Principal High School - KPI'
Any suggestions please ??
Thanks,
VRP

Hi,
I pasted the log view below by applying SET VARIABLE LOGLEVEL=2, DISABLE_CACHE_HIT=1;, ran this report by applying SQL in Session variable. Let me know if you want anything -
Thanks

Hi ,
I normally do this to fix this problem
1>Disable the network , keep the loopback adaptor enabled and then restart the services.
2> You can enable the network after services are restarted.
If you want a more practical solution and dont want to disable network again and again, then you would find the blog below useful.

Hope this help.

Agent Issue In Obiee 11g

In OBIEE 11G, how to send automatically one email for different level users for having a look different data by agent?
For example:
One report architeture:
Region--------District---------Sales
Region 1------District1--------100
------------------District2---------200
Region 2------District3---------300
------------------District4---------400
One Level can have a look at data:
Region-----------------Sales
Region 1-------------300
Region 2------------ 700
Another Level can have a look at data:
Region--------District---------Sales
Region 1------District1--------100
------------------District2---------200
Region 2------District3---------300
------------------District4---------400
Is it possible to implement this requirement in OBIEE 11.1.1.6? Thanks.

If any one knows that whats the reason behind this issue, so Please help me. I will be very thankful, Thanks.

Hi,
I experienced the same problem, the exact errors you got. After much digging, i discovered that my database was not registering with the listener, so i could not connect to it from SQLDeveloper and other tools. After spending much time on the internet trying to solve the error "*ora-12154 tns could not resolve the connect identifier specified*" which was what SQLDeveloper was returning, the problem still persisted.
A colleague of mine then gave told me to try and force my database to register with the correct listener from command line with these commands:
net start OracleServiceDB1
C:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\BIN\oradim.exe -startup -SID DB1 -usrpwd password -pfile C:\oracle\admin\DB1\pfile\init.ora
It turned out that my windows events were full, so i had to clear all events and increased the log size and made sure they are overwritten as needed. And alas, everything was fine again!!!
What a nightmare it was - or may be it was Windows to blame!!! I hope this helps somebody out there sometime.
Obviously, you need to change the paths and other parameters to suite your system. OracleServiceDB1 is the name of my service and DB1 is the name of my database. By the way , i ran it on a Windows XP machine.
Cheers

Parent Child Hierarchy Issue in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I am in OBIEE 11G v6. I have a sales fact table where the grain is one sale. So I have one row for every sale done.
Now I have a ragged employee hierarchy like this with David at the root node.
David >>Richard>>Sean
David >>James
Also, I have a role dimension which gives me what role each employee has performed on a sale. Only one employee can be associated with one sale. This is the way Roles have been asssigned
David = Manager
Richard = Off1
Sean = Off2
James = Off2
Both Sean and James can have same Roles. Now I have created a parent child hierarchy for my employee dimension and the closure table. Defined the member key, ancestor key relationship in the parent child setting etc.
Now in the report when I pull the parent child hierarchy and the sales_amount in the report, it comes out perfect with all the ragged hierarchy resolved. But the issue comes when I try to limit the report on Role = Off2. It gives me an error saying " The layout of this view combined with the data, selection , drills resulted in no data. Undo drill and view prompt values". Basically what i want is to be able to select any role type and then my hierarchy should be adjusted to show me that data. Like when I select Off2, I want to see David at the Top level and Sean and James under him because they are both Off 2 and David is their manager.
Is that possbile? Also, am I getting this error because when I select Off2 though it gets Sean and James but since David is not Off2, I don't get the data?
I hope I was able to explain the issue, any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ronny

So basically this means that if I build a parent child hierarchy on table A having the stucture like
--David (Manager)
-----James (Off1)
--------Bill (Off2)
and in my sales fact table for let's say today, I have only rows for Bill (Off2) because he is the only officer who did the sales today. Now when I will join my fact table to parent child hierarchy table A I will NOT get any data ? because there is no James who is the parent of Bill. So obiee need to have parent pulled off in the data (ANCESTOR) to be able to roll up the child.(IS_LEAF = 1)
I testes this and if my data only contains only rows for Bill (or I limit on ROLE = Off2) then it won't show the hierarchy. The query which OBIEE fires is to look for either ANCESTOR_KEY = NULL OR (DISTANCE = 1 AND ANCESTOR KEY IN (Bill). Therefore it doesn't I am wondering then what is the use of builiding the parent child hierarchy when we need to pull in all the ancestors (like in this case James for bill and David for james) because in real scenarios there can be cases wherein we would want to filter the data based on other dimensions to which the parent child hierarchy joins ?

Issue in OBIEE 11G Google Maps

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,

Issue with OBIEE 11g Deinstall

Hi All,
While trying to uninstall OBIEE 11g 6.8 (Simple Install), I guess I did a wrong step, by mistake I unistalled Weblogic Server before deinstalling the Oracle Instance and now while trying to deinstall the instance using "Deinstall Managed ASInstance", it gives me an error "INS- Unable to connect to Oracle WebLogic Administration Server" which makes sense because there is no admin server running now without weblogic.
What should I do now ?
1. Should I proceed with deleting the binaries and then manually delete the instance folder later on - If I do this, will I get an error while doing a fresh installation again?
2. Is there a way to install weblogic server again and then I can start again by deleting the Oracle Instance again
I realize that I should have uninstalled Weblogic Server at the end but now I am stuck, can anybody please help me on this?
Thanks,
Ronny

Ronny , No where you can't install weblogic to start with uninstall again !
just go with the option #1 if it is linux just rm directory should work otherwise delete the binaries, folders manually & environment variables
thanks,
Saichand

Info on Presentation Variables used in OBIEE

Hi All,
I need some information on Presentation Variables which are used in OBIEE.
a. We can filter on a column using actual value. What is the benefit of using a Presentation variable to filter on a column?
b. Is there something a presentation variable can do which a repository variable cannot.
c. Can a presentation variable be used to filter on a dashboard itself rather than going to Answers to filter the request
d. Where else can a presentation variable be declared apart from dashboard prompt?
Regards,
Apoorv Chitre

Hi Apoorv,
let me try to answer your questions one by one
a. We can filter on a column using actual value. What is the benefit of using a Presentation variable to filter on a column
As you say, if you need a filter which does not use an actual (fixed) value (or where the value is passed from a prompt) then it is a good idea to use variables (could be repository, session or presentation variable) which variable type you choose depends on 1) the way the value is passed to the variable and 2) the type of data (e.g. a variable CURRENT_MONTH is definitely valid for all users, so it would be a good idea to use a repository variable).
b. Is there something a presentation variable can do which a repository variable cannot.
Presentation variables are session-specific, that is they can have different values for each user. Repository variables have the same values for all users.
c. Can a presentation variable be used to filter on a dashboard itself rather than going to Answers to filter the request.
Not sure what you mean...
d. Where else can a presentation variable be declared apart from dashboard prompt?
I have compiled an overview of all variable types in OBI EE and how they can be declared here
Presentation variables can only be set using dashboard prompts.
have a nice day
