11g Groups of Roles & Data filters

Hi Guys,
In 11g OBIEE, when we create 3 applications roles ,
Role_A
Role_B
Role_DataFilter (Fact1 = 'XYZ') (* this role is mapped to other two application roles Role_A & Role_B)
Two without no datafilters and one with a datafilter.
When one user get assign to Role_A & Role_B , we found the Fact1='XYZ' gets applied twice (with or clause).
However in the My Account -> Roles and groups shows only 3 roles which assigned.
Is this the expected behavior or a bug?
Seems we can not overlap different data-filters in roles.
Thanks!
Nils.

I encounterd the simliar issue on setting the presentation table permissions.
Take the original Sample Sales Lite model for example.
I set the permissions of TIME table to "No Access" for all default application roles: Everyone, BIAdministrator, BIAuthor, BIConsumer, BISystem and weblogic. Then I login with weblogic account, but I still could see the TIME table in the Subject area.
I'm very confused why there's nothing happened. Is there is any other configuration need to be enable to the Security Control?

Need help with data filtering on groups/application roles

Hello,
I have a situation where I have to apply security on objects (reports, prompts etc) and dimension members (Essbase cube). So the idea is like this:
Report 1: access to three users (U1, U2, U3), but for dimension Company they have separate rights:
U1: Company A, Companies A.1-A.7 (children of A) and Companies A.1.1-A.1.9 (children of A.1);
U2: Company A.1 and Companies A.1.1-A.1.9;
U3: Company A.1.1
same for Report 2, but users must have access to different companyes, like Company B, B1...
In WebLogic Console I created three groups (G1-G3) and placed each user to a group (U1-> G1, U2 ->G2, U3->G3). Then in WebLogic EM I created three application roles (R1-R3) and added for each, corresponding user (R1-> U1, R2->U2, R3-> U3).
My approach was to use application roles like this:
R1: include User1 and filter data on repository by application role to each generation of the cube ("Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation2,Dimension"='Company A',"Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation3,Dimension"='Company A.1', "Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation4,Dimension"='Company A.1.1')
R2: include User2 and filter data on repository by application role to each generation of the cube ("Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation3,Dimension"='Company A.1', "Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation4,Dimension"='Company A.1.1')
R3: include User3 and filter data on repository by application role to each generation of the cube ("Data_Source_Name"."Dimension_Name"."Generation4,Dimension"='Company A.1.1').
I've noticed that, by default, each role inherites BIConsumer and "localmachineusers" application roles, so I set in repository these both roles to filter data as the role 3 (the lowest level of acces), in order for my roles (Roles 1 to 3) to have the highest privileges.
In repository I cannot see any of my users (U1-U3), but just the application roles they are in.
For Report 1 I set the access to Roles 1-3 and when I am logged on as U3 this report should display only the data for Company A.1.1, but it doesn't (displays data also for Company A, Companies A.1-A.7).
In fact it seems, that the data isn't filtered at all, which drives me to the conclusion that my data filter is override by another role, maybe ?
Could you please give me a clue about what I am missing here ?
Thank you.

Amith,
Please bear this with me - see my comments below (search for petresion_Comments):
So, we have three users who have access to a report called Report1. But the data that they see in the report needs to be different. The report has a dimension company, and each user needs to see different companies data. So the filtering needs to be done on company dimension.
petresion_Comment: That's my case to solve.
Now the groups in weblogic has no purpose in OBIEE 11g unless you are using an LDAP authenticator who has groups defined in the active directory. By this I mean the network people are maintaining the users and group relation necessary for OBIEE. So keeping the weblogic groups apart for a minute, lets deal with users and roles only.
The three users are assigned to three different roles R1, R2 and R3. By default, all the roles inherit the BIconsumer role, and localmachineusers role you mentioned is not an OTB role. This is something that is probably causing the data filtering to fail. Do a test like create a user in weblogic, assign him only to the localmachineusers role, and go to analytics, and check your roles and groups by going under my account. Make sure this role is not inheriting any other roles like BIAdministrator, BIauthor etc. So in conclusion, when one of your users login, they should inherit only their custom Role (R1 for instance), BIConsumer, Authenticated User, and your custom role localmachineusers.
petresion_Comment: That is what I checked on the first time (few days ago) and is exactly as you say (BIConsumer, localmachinerole and Role1).
Do not apply any data filters on the BIConsumer role. This is not a good practice because the filters get applied to every single user that logs into the system.
petresion_Comment: I know that, but appliyng filters on BIConsumer role I tried to make sure that its privileges doesn't overrides any of my Roles (1,2 or 3). I will remove the filter on BIConsumer.
Now create the data filters on your custom roles (R1, R2, R3). Save the RPD. Deploy the Rpd through Enterprise Manager.
petresion_Comment: Only difference in my case is that I stopped BI services, applied changes to rpd in Offline mode and then restarted BI services.But also tried as you mentioned (by the book in fact) and same result. The problem is the same, my roles(1,2,3) don't filter the companies at all.
Once you are done with all the work above, you should login into analytics as user1. After logging in go to my account, roles and groups, and make sure you see the R1 in the list of groups. Now run the report, and your filters should get applied no matter what. If they are still not getting applied, grab the physical sql and see if the filters are existing in the where condition.
petresion_Comment: Where can I capture the physical SQL (probably an MDX sent to the Essbase cube ?) ?
One other reason could be, one of the roles that are assigned to the user1 by default, is overriding the filters. Like for example, if a user is assigned to BIAdmin role, and no matter if you assign him to a different role that has 100's of filters, he will still see all of the data.
petresion_Comment: As I said before, each of my users are members of their roles, BIComsumer and localmachinerole, so no other privileges (no BIAdmin role).
Thank you for the patience.

OBIEE Security 10g to 11g: Groups

I had a Security scenario that I wanted to throw out to the forum...
In 10g, we made use of the GROUP system variable to pull a users group membership from a database table. This was a Session Variable initialized upon each login.
Data-level and object-level security was different for each group.
In our environment users had the ability to switch groups, so they could be active in one of the groups and inactive in the others. We provided a form (WriteBack) that allowed them to set what group they wanted to be active for. They would then log out and log back in and have their new group assignments.
In the Session Variable this was done by pulling in only groups that were flagged as Active. This worked great as it was done at the Session level. So I could login once and see Dashboard A, swtich my role, then log back in and NOT see Dashboard A.
I know 11g still has the concept of WEBGROUPS, that would mimic the above, but my understanding is that Oracle is pushing the use of Application Roles.
My question is how would the above behavior be ported over to 11g using Application Roles? I didn't think the population of an Application Role was Session Based, my belief is that it is populated when the Admin Server/Managed Servers are bought up pulling from the applcable Security Provider.

Q1. how deploy external database security(users, groups) to OBIEE 11g.
we used external database security in 10g. all the users and groups maintained in database and obiee rpd has security groups. repository has group information only so it is deployed groups information to obiee 11g by upgrade assistant but how can it deploy users in external database?
Solution:

http://obieeblog.wordpress.com/2009/06/18/obiee-security-enforcement-%E2%80%93-external-database-table-authorization/
Q2. all the users and roles in LDAP server. in this case how obiee 11g read users and group information?
Obiee11g is intergated with weblogic fusion middleware (Console,EM). in that console have feature to enable mulitiple LDAP authentication
while configuring AD via weblogic console we need to give the users and group info
Solution refer:

User= Group= SubGroup= Role: Now working when this link is used

Hai,
We are using EP 5.0 with LDAP 7.6 When a user id created it is attached to a group and the group is attached to a role. I introduced a nested group in this link as userid is attached to group, group is attached to sub group and subgroup is attached to role. When i did like this and login to the portal system the roles are not seen in the portal.
Below are the things which i did,
When a user id(Ex : MYTEST1) is created it is attached to a group(Ex : ESS_GE) by the below code.
       String group = "ESS_GE";
       String groupdn = "cn=" + group.toUpperCase() + "," + groupsRoot;
       String userdn = "cn=" + userid.toUpperCase() + "," + peopleRoot;
      // modifications for group and user
      LDAPModification[] modGroup = new LDAPModification[2];
      LDAPModification[] modUser = new LDAPModification[2];
   // Add modifications to modUser
   LDAPAttribute membership = new LDAPAttribute("groupMembership", groupdn);
   modUser[0] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, membership);
   LDAPAttribute security = new LDAPAttribute("securityEquals", groupdn);
   modUser[1] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, security);
    // Add modifications to modGroup
    LDAPAttribute member = new LDAPAttribute("uniqueMember", userdn);
    modGroup[0] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, member);
    LDAPAttribute equivalent = new LDAPAttribute("equivalentToMe", userdn);
    modGroup[1] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, equivalent);
   // Modify the user's attributes
   lc.modify( userdn, modUser);
   // Modify the user's group attributes
    lc.modify( groupdn, modGroup);
Group is attached to a role(EP_GE_USER_ROLE). So the link is User =>Group=>Role which is MYTEST1=>ESS_GE=>EP_GE_USER_ROLE. This linke is working perfectly
I introduced a nested group and changed the link as User=>Group=>Sub_Group=>Role which is MYTEST1=>ESS_GE=>ESS_GE_ONLINE=>EP_GE_USER_ROLE.
After this when I login with the user id MYTEST1 the Roles which are attached to ESS_GE_ONLINE is not shown. Any idea why the roles which are attached to group ESS_GE_ONLINE is not transferred to ESS_GE group. Should I have to add any other LDAP attributes apart from the one which are coded below.
String group1 = "ESS_GE";
String group2 = "ESS_GE_ONLINE";
String groupdn1 = "cn=" + group1.toUpperCase() + "," + groupsRoot;
String groupdn2 = "cn=" + group2.toUpperCase() + "," + groupsRoot;
//Add ESS_GE_ONLINE group to ESS_GE group
LDAPAttribute membership1 = new LDAPAttribute("uniqueMember", groupdn2);
modGroup1[0] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, membership1);
LDAPAttribute security1 = new LDAPAttribute("equivalentToMe", groupdn2);
modGroup1[1] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, security1);
//Add ESS_GE group to ESS_GE_ONLINE group
LDAPAttribute membership2 = new LDAPAttribute("uniqueMember", groupdn1);
modGroup2[0] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, membership2);
LDAPAttribute security2 = new LDAPAttribute("equivalentToMe", groupdn1);
modGroup2[1] = new LDAPModification( LDAPModification.ADD, security2);
lc.modify( groupdn1, modGroup1);
lc.modify( groupdn2, modGroup2);
Thanks & Regards,
H.K.Hayath Basha.

change that to the following and retest:

Sum of LineCount Including Groups and Detail Data On Each Page Used To Generate New Page If TotalPageLineCount 28

Post Author: tadj188#
CA Forum: Formula
Needed: Sum of LineCount Including Groups and Detail Data On Each Page Used To Generate New Page If TotalPageLineCount > 28
Background:
1) Report SQL is created with unions to have detail lines continue on a page, until it reaches page footer or report footer, rather than using subreports.    A subreport report is now essentially a group1a, group1b, etc. (containing column headers and other data within the the report    with their respective detail lines). I had multiple subreports and each subreport became one union.
Created and tested, already:
1) I have calculated @TotalLineForEachOfTheSameGroup, now I need to sum of the individual same group totals to get the total line count on a page.
Issue:
1) I need this to create break on a certain line before, it dribbles in to a pre-printed area.
Other Ideas Appreciated:
1) Groups/detail lines break inconveniently(dribble) into the pre-printed area, looking for alternatives for above situation.
Thank you.

'Role Data' tab appearing twice in Business Partner master data

Hello,
The 'Role Data' tab is appearing in the master data of business partner for TWO times. The contents of both the tabs are identical. So I know that the only thing that I probably need to fix is the screen sequence. I have followed note 695714 and could not find anything wrong. Can someone please help me with the following queries:
1. Identifying where we maintain the tab sequence for business partner master data, ie the transaction code or the path in BDT
2. What is the name used in BP for the 'tabs'... I mean they are not called TABS but I suppose as Screens or Screen Sequence. So, what is the correct name for a Tab in BP master data.
3. How I can hide the extra tab of Role Data from the BP master data screen
4. How do we control the sequencing of the tabs, ie whether the address tab should be the first one or the third one or the last one.
Regards

Hi Kiran,
Can you post the query here, which you used in fromatted search.
I believe you mean to say that by this formatted search, user will have flexibility to choose the field and enter the search value.

Payment Medium Workbench - Group by Posting Date

I have made a medium format with DMEE Engine but it doesn't work as I would like.
I want to have a file with all items group by posting date (subtotals group by posting date, no depends on vendor).
I have 2 leveles:
   - Level 1: Repetition Factor 1          and Key Field FPAYP-FAEDT (Posting Date)
   - Level 2: Repetition Factor 999999 and Key Field FPAYP-DOC2R (Document unique key)
However when I execute F110 transaction it generates different files, WHY?
One file per vendor and posting date, but I WANT TO HAVE A UNIQUE FILE.
Example
                  Vendor          Posting Date          Ammount
ITEM 1:       xx                 15/10/2007            100
ITEM 2:       xx                 15/10/2007            200
ITEM 3:       yy                 15/10/2007            300
ITEM 4:       xx                 21/10/2007            400
ITEM 5:       zz                 21/10/2007            500
Output (wrong)
FILE1:
                 15/10/2007
                 xx     100
                 xx     200
                          300
FILE2:
                 15/10/2007
                 yy     300
                          300

                 xx     200
                 yy     300
                          600
                 21/10/2007
                 xx     400
                 zz     500
                          900
Thanks in advanced!

Ok, the problem has been fixed.
The repetition factor for level 1 (Posting Date) should be 9999999 instead of 1, beacuse it refers to input data and it doesn't refer to output data.
We can have differents posting dates in input data, but we want to have a unique line by posting date in output data.
Regards!

Here is 2 table, 1st is my row table, and I want to group with 2 date.
Here is 3 days difference. and sum of value is coming.
2nt table is my expectation table.
Plz help me for this problem.
Thanks
Samir

I am doing 3 days grouping here
"dt" is name of date column
if "dt" column has '1/19/2015' then next in group it will come in "1/18/2015 and1/20/2015"
any date of 18 or 19 0r 20 it will come in "1/18/2015 and1/20/2015"
and counting will add between 3 date
Sorry your posted output is not as per above rule
How did row for  1/6/2015 and 1/9/2015 got included then. If you group by 3 days you wont get
this row as 6-9 is 4 days not 3 days

MDG-S BP Grouping,BP Role,BP Categeory and ERP Vendoe Account Group

Hi
Can anybody explains me releationship between MDG-S BP Grouping,BP Role,BP Categeory and ERP Vendoe Account Group?
It seems there is no requried field except Change Request Description.If we input value for CR Description only, we can still able to sumbit and activate CR and Bussiner Partner ID (Which is internally generated) will be stored in MDG stagging table for entity type BP_HEADER.
My question is then what is use of BP Grouping,BP role in this as it contains blank value? Also it observed that for new ERP Vendor the Account Group field is always in non editable mode,Any reason for this? Same issue with Company Code after selecting CC it displayed as non editable field before submitting CR as well.

Hi Sanjay,
When you select New -> Organization, below screen comes, In Grouping drop down you need to select Vendor Account Group and in Role list enter role.
Follow same procedure when you want to create next vendor.
Under new pushbutton, you will get three options:
Organization means when you want to create vendor.
Person means you are creating person not vendor, these person you can assign as a contact person to the vendor in Relationship tab.

Sudhir

Hello Sunil,
The problem is that I have hundreds of users to maintain user groups.
found out that it is possible to assign user group to role and role to user groups. implementing hr authorization with in-direct assignment of auth. So if I could use sq10, user groups could also be link to position in the org chart.
sq10 does allow you to assign a user group to a role but when you assign the role to a user and the user runs a query, it reports that no user group has been assigned.
Suspect that there must be a parameter or switch that is not turned on

Dynamically group records by date

I am attempting to create a report that will dynamically group records into a set number of date buckets. This is similar to grouping records by a date field and setting the days, weeks, months, etc property but instead of grouping by a set time span I want to a specific number of date groups regardless of date span. So say i have records where the first date is today at 1am and the last record is today at 9 pm. I want the data grouped into 10 groups and the time calculated for that group based on total time span / 10. The first group would be 1AM to 3AM, the second would group 3AM to 5AM, etc.. The reason I am doing this is for a chart that displays record counts over time but the overall timespan will never be known until runtime. Setting the chart for hourly or weekly doesn't work because if the user runs the report over a year the dates will be illegible.
Thanks in advance!

Well this SHOULD be easy. But leave it to CR make not...
You can start by finding the minimum & maximum dates within your range:
Local DateTimeVar MinDate;
MinDate := Minimum({Table.DateField})
and
Local DateTimeVar MaxDate;
MaxDate := Maximum({Person.ModifiedDate})
Then figure out what the the interval would be if the span is broken down into 10 equal parts"
DateDiff("n", {@MinDate}, {@MaxDate}) / 10
From there just use a formula to segregate each records into the appropriate groups:
EvaluateAfter({@Interval});
IF {Table.DateField} >= {@MinDate}
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval}, {@MinDate}) THEN 1 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval}, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 2, {@MinDate}) THEN 2 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 2, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 3, {@MinDate}) THEN 3 ELSE
IF{Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 3, {@MinDate})
    AND{Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 4, {@MinDate}) THEN 4 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 4, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 5, {@MinDate}) THEN 5 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 5, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 6, {@MinDate}) THEN 6 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 6, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 7, {@MinDate}) THEN 7 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 7, {@MinDate})
    AND{Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 8, {@MinDate}) THEN 8 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 8, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 9, {@MinDate}) THEN 9 ELSE
IF {Table.DateField} > DateAdd("n",{@Interval} * 9, {@MinDate})
    AND {Table.DateField} <= {@MaxDate} THEN 10
This is where CR drops the ball... IMHO... it WON'T allow you to to group by a formula field that uses an aggregate in the formula (in this case Minimum & Maximum)... It will however allow to to graph on it, which I assume is what you are actually trying to do. If anyone knows a way to work around the grouping issue, I'd love to know it myself.
HTH,
Jason
