Universe OLAP Options

XI 3.1 with SAP Integration
I have created a universe based on a BW query.  According to the documentation, there should be OLAP options under Tools>Options but the only tabs I see are General, Save and Print/PDF.
What I am looking for are options to generate technical names, replace level prefixes etc.
What am I not seeing here?

Ingo:
SP2 for the intergration kit, BO XI itself or both?
I'll check with our administrator.  I thought we were at the current SP.
Would it be maybe a good idea for you to create a sticky note in this forum describing how to determine install levels based on the version numbers for the various server and client components?

  • Where is the new location of the OLAP option DBA sample scripts?

    Hello,
    OLAP option DBA sample scripts was used to be available on http://wiki.oracle.com/page/OLAP+option+-DBASample+Scripts
    Thanks,
    Lajos

    I see now OLAP DBA Scripts http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/options/olap/olap-dba-scripts-393636.zip under the Download section of OLAP otn home http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/options/olap/index.html

  • OLAP Option enabled?

    I installed Oracle DB 10g. I don't understand if the OLAP Option is already enabled (during install i was not asked for). I need it enabled because want now to install Analytical workspace Manager and after that the Discoverer etc.
    The DB Config. Assistant also gave no help, because its wizard showed me the OLAP Option checked, but greyed out.
    How can one test if the OLAP option is installed? and how to install the OLAP Option?

    To configure the Oracle OLAP option you need to install the Enterprise Edition of the Oracle Database with the Data Warehouse database configuration. While installing Oracle Database just remember to choose Advanced Installation at the "Welcome to the Oracle Database 10g Installation" screen and the appropriate screens will follow.
    To check your Oracle Database for Oracle OLAP:
    1) Make sure you have the Enterprise Edition of the Oracle Database 10g.
    SQL> select banner from v$version where banner like 'Oracle%';
    You should see Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition.
    2) Make sure you have the Data Warehouse database configuration or the OLAP Option enabled.
    SQL> select parameter, value from v$option where parameter='OLAP';
    You should see OLAP TRUE.
    So how do you add the OLAP option to an existing Oracle Database Enterprise Edition?
    Assuming that you created your database manually or via DBCA...
    Oracle9i Release 2:
    conn / as SYSDBA
    create tablespace CWMLITE datafile 'cwmlite01.dbf' size 20m autoextend on next 640k;
    @ ?/olap/admin/olap.sql
    @ ?/cwmlite/admin/oneinstl.sql CWMLITE TEMP;
    Oracle Database 10g:
    connect SYS as SYSDBA
    @ ?/olap/admin/olap.sql SYSAUX TEMP;

  • OLAP option and 10g Standard Edition

    Hi,
    I have a small question. I want to find out if it is possible to have the OLAP option for my DB if I possess a Oracle 10g Standard Edition, or Standard Edition One license.
    I've checked the product note for EE, SE and SE One. Only EE contains a word about OLAP option. But as its just an Option, can't we have it with SE also?
    Thanks
    Goga

    Oracle is kind enough to document this information. I encourage you to become familiar with the 'Licensing' document, and in this case, the first 2 paragraphs of chapter 2.
    For your convenience, I've provided the link to that doc for 10gR2:

  • Discoverer and Oracle 9i Olap Option

    Hello,
    I have a question regarding Discoverer and OLAP option in Oracle 9i. Is it required to buy OLAP Option
    with Oracle9i when using 9iAS Discoverer or can I use it without this option?
    As I know Oracle BI Beans make use of 9i OLAP Option and Discoverer Graphs use Graph Component of BI
    Beans, so how this situation concerns OLAP Option (I haven't found any information that OLAP Option is required to use Discoverer)?
    Regards,
    Aleksander Miler

    Hi,
    Oracle OLAP is a multidimensional database on the top of the Oracle 9i database. It works like Oracle Express(MOLAP server).
    Anyway, you don't need to install Oracle OLAP option when you use Discoverer.

  • Oracle 10g OLAP option

    Hi all
    Do we support creating a universe against an Oracle 10g OLAP database and how do we do this to report against OLAP data?
    I notice that there isn't an OLAP universe option for this, so I presume that if we can then we do this via OLAP SQL expressions?
    Thank you for your help and kind regards,
    Deam

    Hi,
    You are right, we are supporting Oracle OLAP 10g using SQL.
    In fact we provide an option in Universe Designer where you can automatically create an Oracle view based on an AW (Analytical Workspace) and then generate the universe:<ul><li>Select "Metadata exchange" menu option from "File" menu
    <li>Then select "Oracle OLAP 9i/10G/11g" option
    </ul>You can therefore customize the universe by adding objects, filters, measures, etc.
    You can also add other tables in the scema in order to provide drill-though capabilities.

    Didier

  • BO Universe : OLAP versus Relational

    Dear expert,
    I am new to this. And my current understading is:
    - For using SAP as datasource, you can only have OLAP universe, and you can't really 'JOIN' data from several BW datasource. we can merge but not really 'JOIN' like those with data from relational database datasource.
    - So, is having Infoset is the only way to 'JOIN' data from different datasource in BW system? Or there is other technique to mimic how we join data (or tables) from Relational database in a universe?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Didier,
    Thanks for the pointer. Looks like Data Federator will require some additional purchasing. Do you know what is the ball-park figure for a company with 500-1000 SAP BO users?
    Hi Khaled, thank you for your reply. I am doing APD for some cases, but I wonder if we want to have duplication of the data in BW everywhere we want to have it combined with other datasource (e.g. sales data with finance data, then sales data with inventory, etc), we will have many duplicate data. While if we have many universes who can treat each datasource as relational source (but the universe it self is not keeping any data), this will be better? <-- i am still exploring if this is true :). Infoset have similar behaviour but not very good performance.
    Didier, just if you have, could you point me to a material to read about Data Federator?
    Thanks a lot guys.

  • Universe Connection - options for specifying database authentication

    Are there any options for specifying the id and password for a database connection from the Universe Designer other than entering them directly into the tool?  Our information security group prefers to administer security accounts (i.e. user id's and passwords) in standard security products as compared to having to know development tools (e.g. Business Objects).
    Thank you.

    to create a connection you have to enter a user name or password for this connection.
    in your case, your Administrator can create those connections in the designer before they create any universe and then give an access to which developers access which connections to create specific universes.
    to create a connection there is no other way more than entering the user name and password.
    in the XI 3.0 there is some new and very good option "User BusinessObjects Credentials Mapping"
    which i think send the current connected business objects user name and password to the connection user name and password.
    its just map the user name of the BO system to the user name of the connection, and same thing for the password, and for this you have to have a DB user name for every BusinessObjects user name,
    this is wide use with oracle databases.
    good luck

  • SAP BW Universe OLAP @prompt LOV using object reference not working

    I have tried to follow Didier MAZOUÉ's "[OLAP universes best practices|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/node/20081]" document to create calculated measure in a OLAP universe built on top of a BW cube directly. The objective is to get the revenue figure from the same period of the previous year. I wanted to be able to have a LOV to specify a period when the object is used in a webi report.
    When I hard coded the LOV as a data set as displayed in the following example  (  {'[CD2007009]','[CD2007010]'}  ) The prompt worked as expected.
    (PARALLELPERIOD(.[LEVEL01],1,[0FISCPER].@Prompt('Period?',A,{'[CD2007009]','[CD2007010]'},mono,free)),[Measures].[0G_AERLOS])</EXPRESSION>
    When I build my expression using an object referece as ( 'TimeFiscal year period' ), I was given an error msg saying "invaid prompt definition". I verified my spellings and syntax and they were correct based on the examples provided by the best practice document.
    (PARALLELPERIOD(.[LEVEL01],1,[0FISCPER].@Prompt('Period?',A,'TimeFiscal year period',mono,free)),[Measures].[0G_AERLOS])</EXPRESSION>
    Is there anything obvious that I missed. Or there are some extra configuration I have to do on SAP BW or Universe side?

    Hi  Mr. MAZOUÉ,
    After a few days of struggling with this particular prompt issue, I finally figured out what was wrong with it. The object reference in the @prompt function is not able to process object references in a subclass correctly.
    For example:
    @Prompt('Period?','A','TimeFiscal year periodL01 Fiscal year period',mono,free)
    The 'Fiscal year period' is a subclass under the main class 'Time'. If you use this prompt function in a MDX expression, it parse correctly. But it generates a prompting failure when referencing the object with the embeded prompt function in a webi report.
    However, if I move the 'L01 Fiscal year  period' object underneath the 'Time' class and change the prompt as @Prompt('Period?','A','TimeL01 Fiscal year period',mono,free). I was able to get a list of values when I designed a webi report using the object.
    This seems to me is a limitation from the current OLAP Universe implementation.
    Looking forward to your feedbacks!
    thanks
