A single OBIEE report firing Multiple Queries

HI All,
I tried the search option and did not find any questions which gives me what I am looking for. If I missed it and the question is already asked, please redirect me to the thread.
I had a report which had a data issues. When i checked the log, I was shocked to see it firing 10 different queries. Could you guys please tell me exactly when OBIEE decides to split a single query and fire multiple ones?
Here's some info on the report:
1. All the columns are from the same subject area.
2. All the physical tables are in the same database in the physical layer.
3. All the tables are from the same physical catalog even.
4. Majority of the columns are from the same fact. The fact table however has multiple LTS(Over 30) involving both fragmentation and content filters.
Could you guys please let me know  why multiple queries are fired in the above case as well as generally by OBIEE?
Thanks,
Abhiram.

It is recommended not to edit DB features. If you need to change them you might need to take help of oracle support.
Else you might induce more erratic behavior.
Not in agreement here. Depending on how that data sources beneath OBIEE are physically set up and parametrized you may be forced to change this in order to assure performance for example. Not all your BI-analyzed sources will be purpose-built for analytics and hence follow usual modellization rules or approaches. Oracle put the features in the DB objects for exactly that reason. And obviously you don't go and change the features "just like that".
since fact measures are from multiple LTS, every time you bring a measure from different LTS it is treated as another star. So what OBIEE does is it queries each star separately using alias and then stitch them logically. Thats the reason for fragmented queries and a singel long sql in the end with stitches the other sql results in the end.
True, but the OP was talking about "firing 10 different queries". Which is a bit vague but sounds more like distinct select statements rather than stich-joined WITHs...that's why I directed him towards the features which can actually change this dramatically. Problem is, that the OP hasn't made that exact point clear yet.

  • Single report with multiple queries OR multiple reports with single query

    Hello Experts,
    I have a confusion regarding Live Office connection for many days. I asked many people but did not get a concrete answer. I am re-posting this question here and expecting an answer this time.
    The product versions that I am using are as follows:
    FrontEnd:
      BOE XI 3.1 SP4 FP 4.1
      Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP4
    Backend:
      SAP BW 7.0 EHP1
    I have created a dashboard which is getting data from a webi report using LO connections.
    The webi report has five report parts which are populated by five different queries.
    Now my question is, when the five LO connections are refreshed, is the webi report refreshed five times or just once?
    If the report is refreshed five times, then I guess it is better to have five different webi reports containing single report part, because in that way we can prevent same query being executed multiple times.
    SO what is the best practice- to have a single report having multiple queries - OR - to create multiple webi reports with single query?
    Thanks and Regards,
    PASG

    HI
    I think Best Practice is Multiple reports with single query
    Any way If LO connections refresh 5 time the query will refresh 5 timesRegards

  • Report with Multiple queries too slow in BI Publisher 11g

    Hi, I have a report in 11g where i need to create multiple queries to show them in report. I tried to combine everything in one query, but i found that the query is too huge and hard to understand and maintain. I created 3 data sets and linked them together. In SQL dev, the main query is returning about 315 records and first detail query returns less than 100 records and second detail query is returning one record which is BLOB. Each query returns data within a couple of seconds from SQL Developer. The entire report from BI Publisher should be just 21 page PDF output. Did anyone face performance issues while running reports with multiple queries in 11g? I ran reports that have single query which returned 10K pages PDF and never had an issue while everthing is in one query. This is the first time Iam attempting to create multiple queries. Can someone help me understand what i might be doing wrong or missing here. Thank you.

    Isn't there a way for you to do this via a Package/Procedure versus having multiple queries?
    Per the BI Publisher guide,
    Following are recommended guidelines for building data models:
    Reduce the number of data sets or queries in your data model as much as possible. In general, the fewer data sets and queries you have, the faster your data model will run. While multiquery data models are often easier to understand, single-query data models tend to execute more quickly. It is important to understand that in parent-child queries, for every parent, the child query is executed.
    You should only use multiquery data models in the following scenarios:
    To perform functions that the query type, such as a SQL query, does not support directly.
    To support complex views (for example, distributed queries or GROUP BY queries).
    To simulate a view when you do not have or want to use a view.

  • Bursting a report with multiple queries

    Hi,
    I need to set-up bursting in BIP for a report with multiple queries. The output format is pdf and delivery is through e-mail. Since the queries need to be linked, I'm trying to do this using data template. I've set-up split and burst based on a field (store_id) from the first query which is used as a bind variable in the subsequent queries. So I'd ideally want the report to be split based on store_id. The report works fine if I use a parameter for store_id and view the output by store_id. When I try to schedule the report for bursting, it generates and e-mails the reports but only the last report appears to have correct data output while the others have only the output from the first query (and all other queries appear to return nothing in the report).
    Any suggestions on what could be the issue here? Thanks!

    Hello user6428199,
    When you use ":Q1_STORE_ID" in your queries, BI Publisher looks for a report parameter named Q1_STORE_ID. Change all your report queries to get data for all the store_id's available. As you are bursting the report using the store_id as the bursting key, BI Publisher will split the report based on the stored_id and delivers content based on it. No matter how many queries you may have, BI Publisher will loop through all the store_id's available and all the queries will return data for that particular id in a report.
    Thanks,

  • OBIEE report from multiple facts at different levels

    Currently we need to develop a report with columns from 3 different facts surrounded with conformed and non conformed dimensions at different levels.
    After setting the hierarchial levels and putting the facts into single logical table with different sources OBIEE is generating 2 different queries and does a full outer join.
    I would like to know how we can do a left outer join instead of full outer join between the 2 queries based on a common column?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Vinod,
    The scenario provided in the link above doesnt match to my issue.
    We need to develop a report from multiple fact tables at different levels with conformed & non conformed dimension columns.
    I have 7 dimensions D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6 and D7 & two fact F1 and F2 tables.
    F1 is tied to dimensions D1,D2,D3,D4,d5
    F2 is tied to dimensions D3,D4,D5, D6 and D7.
    In my report I have columns from D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, F1 and F2.
    So OBIEE generates 2 queries with columns from D1,D2,D3,D4,d5 & F1 measure and another query with D3,D4,D5, D6, D7 and F2 measure.
    and then does a cross fact join out of box between 2 queries.
    But I need to do a left outer join between the 2 queries on a common column instead of cross fact join. I would like to know how we can achive this.
    Thanks.

  • CF Report Builder - multiple queries

    I am a CF developer who has worked a fair bit with coding
    reports manually. Have taken the plunge with report builder and
    generally like what I see, BUT am quite disappointed with an
    apparent lack of documentation or tutorials on complex reporting
    techniques.
    I need to do a report which ideally requires two queries, the
    results of which the report's purpose is to compare.
    The problem is, from what I can tell, a .CFR can only have
    ONE query (which I find odd). Can anyone suggest a way of being
    able to have more than one query result set passed into a .CFR.
    I am starting to wonder that CF Report Builder might be great
    for fairly basic, single data set reports, but no good for large
    complex reports. I would be interested in hearing others opinions
    on this.
    Many Thanks in Advance.

    Thanks tmschmitt. You are right in that I am (was) stuck on
    passing in multiple queries. What I have managed to do is use the
    Advanced option of the query builder to write my two seperate
    queries, then combine them into one recordset by doing a Query on
    the Queries. Not sure if this is the best way around it, but it
    seems to be working fine. Problem now is that I need to manually
    craete 500+ "Query Fields" (yuk).
    I haven't really delved into the sub-reports yet, but have a
    feeling they won't meet my current needs. Basically i have 253
    columns of demographic data. I need one recordset (A) with this
    data from one geographic location with a recordset from a different
    location (B). I then need to lay out the data with each field from
    B beside it's corresponding field from A. In short, it is a
    comparitive report whereby the reader can compare a given value
    (e.g. avg income) from one area with that from another. This would
    be fairly straightforward in a scripted report, but with Report
    Builder appears to be quite cumbersome and potentially unmanagable
    as I need to handle each field explicitly (rather than looping over
    recordsets and structures to generate the different sections of the
    report).

  • Creating report with multiple queries in clear quest

    Hi,
    I am new to reports and currently working with creating reports that connect to clear quest(CQ).
    I have successfully created several reports, that connect to the CQ, but they all have data from only one query.
    Now I am trying to create a slightly complex report where I need to fetch data from multiple queries. All these queries use 2 parameter to filter their data. I have dynamic cascading parameters to get them. When just connecting they all work ok. I used the link tab to link them to two fields of one query, to make sure that they all filter to fields from same query.
    The problem is when I drop the fields from the various queries on the form, the data is fetched multiple times.
    I also played with links to make them outer links but in that case I get error and unable to run the report completely.
    Any ideas on how to work with multiple queries and provide same parameters to all of the queries?
    Thanks in advance.
    -PAP

    - How do I make sure that the relationship is not one to many?
    You don't. That's the nature of the data. For example a single person can order multiple items. A simple one to many relationship.
    - In the link tab, I can only point to queries, is there a way I can point the fields to report params?
    You should be seeing tables... I think you're having a tough time with the basic terminology.
    - How does these Enforce Joins (4 options) work.
    There is rarely if ever any reason to switch from the default "not enforced". Leave it alone. The only one you'll touch 90% of the time is the Join Type.
    PAP,
    Based on the questions you're asking, it sounds like you are missing some major database fundamentals. My suggestion would be to step away from CR for the time being and read a little bit about relational databases (what makes them relational) and database normalization. This will also give you an idea about the various join types and when to use one over the other.
    You can know every feature and function in CR, but until you have at least a basic knowledge of how data relates, you'll never pull in the data you need.

  • Matrix report with Multiple queries

    I have created one cross product group containing 4 subgroups under a single query. Now I have another one query seperately to be joined with the matrix query. Also I have one formula column and summary column with this the cross product group. The logic is if formula condition is true the it should take the 2nd query value in the place holder column otherwise it should take the first query value. is it possible?
    If any one knows about this update me ASAP to [email protected]

  • Group by Left Report for Multiple Queries

    Afternoon folks,
    I have been pretty much writing my queries in Oracle Reports by having one long query (which includes multiple sub-queries) and then displaying the results (Mainly Counts and MEDIAN values).
    This has resulted in one very long query (difficult to manage and understand), not to mention slower performance. I would like to change that my making smaller queries and use data links to join the groups.
    Here is my Report request in hand. I need to build a Report that will be grouped by a Reporting Year and stratified by Age Groups and then Report various Counts of Students that are
    coming from various data sources (Tables). As of now, I have the Counts coming from at least 3 different data sources. So as you can imagine, my 3 sub queries have added to one
    very long query. Anymore requirements to the Report and it can lead to a big mess.
    Column '# of Students Enrolled' is coming from ENROLLMENT_TB table
    Columns '# of Students who took Math' and 'Marks > 60' are coming from COURSE_MATH table.
    Birth Date information is in the STUDENT_TB table (Since the Report needs to be stratified by Age Groups)

    Sub Query #1: # of Students Enrolled from ENROLLMENT_TB.
    Sub Query #2: # of the Enrolled Students who took Math from COURSE_MATH_TB
    Sub Query #3: # of the Enrolled Students who took Math from COURSE_MATH_TB and got Marks > 60. Median Score of this sampling.
    My thought would be to have them into Groups and then create a Report a s a Group Left to achieve the results. Any help or suggestions would be more than welcome.
    I have begun working on this Report but it is still taking quite long (Like 4 minutes) when the individual Queries (Q_COURSE_MATH and Q_COURSE_MATCH_60) are only taking 20 seconds each.
    My guess is the Grouping based on the age group is resulting in slower performance but I could be wrong.
    Also, the Query runs between pages and takes a long time to run. So, when I actually ran the Report, only the first page was formatted and then subsequent pages follow.
    Looking at the data model, is there something conceptually wrong?
    I have also not included the Query for Enrollment Counts to keep the Report simple.

    Hi Arsalan,
    "Group by" is not a valid calculation option for calculated fields in the database object, nor is it for the calculation fields in your report.
    I believe that what you are trying to achieve is to have a SUM of all the sales done, grouped by Brand. This is typically something you configure while building your report(in Active Studio).
    If you for example would only want to show 2 out of 5 Brands in your report I suggest you use a filter(which is configured while building your report as well).
    For all calculation and operation options in calculated fields you can go to the Help section of BAM and search for "Calculation Operators and Expressions".
    I hope I helped you solve your problem.
    Kind regards,
    Martijn van der Kamp

  • How to mass print a report with multiple queries?

    Dear All,
    i want to precalclate a report (which includes 4 queries) to pdf for printing. Because i have to print it for all profitcenter (~200), i want to use the filter navigation.
    Because this isn't possible for reports, i inserted my report using a report item to a web template.
    When i call the web template direct, everything works fine, but if i precalculate the web template using the bex broadcaster, only one query is parameterized. The second one seems to use the global variant (the sum of all profitcenter).
    Any Idea? Do i have to change an export web template and add some data provider? I am not absolutely sure which is the right export template for an report in a web template...
    Thanks in advance,
    Thomas

    Hey all,
    nobody an idea of a possible approach.

    );OK. Now once this data is all inserted, comes the real problem and that is:
    a) based on the following requirements
    Requirements: Adhoc Report for Audit on CIT Income Allocation
    1. Select from the RETURNS table:
    • Id > 3600000 and
    • Prog_program_cd = '01' and
    • Return_status in ('ASSESSED', 'DU") and
    • Tax year ending in 2009 (i.e. year portion of the Period_end_date is in 2009)
    2. Retrieve the following fields from the RETURNS table :
    • Id
    • Entp_abn
    • Acct_id
    • Prog_program_cd
    • Period_start_date
    • Period_end_date
    • Amend_ind
    • Return_status
    • Status_date
    • Loctr_nbr
    3. If there are multiple entries from the same account and tax year, only retain the latest record: From the records selected in step 2, if there are multiple records with the same Acct_Id and Period_end_date, only retain the record with the most recent Status_date (i.e. MAX value on the date).
    4. Using the results from step 3, link to the applicable RETURN_LINE_ITEMS table where:
    • RETURNS.Id = RETURN_LINE_ITEMS.Rtrn_Id
    5. From the selected return on RETURN_LINE_ITEMS table, retrieve records where (value on Sch 000 Line 062 > 500,000) and (value on Sch 000 Line 066 < value on Sch 000 Line 062) :
    • Sched_nbr = '000', and Litm_line_item_nbr = '062', and Active_ind = 'Y', get Revise_val_amt as 'ab_taxable_income'
    • Sched_nbr = '000', and Litm_line_item_nbr = '066', and Active_ind = 'Y', get Revise_val_amt as 'amt_taxable_in_ab'
    • Retain the return only if (ab_taxable_income > 500,000) and (amt_taxable_in_ab < ab_taxable_income)
    I utilized the following query and I am getting 4 rows (line item numbers 062 and 066 where in ab_taxable_income > 500,000) and (amt_taxable_in_ab < ab_taxable_income) and this is correct

    For those returns meeting the criteria in step 5, also retrieve the following from RETURN_LINE_ITEMS table and that is:
    sched_nbr = '000' and Litm_line_item_nbr = '029' and ACTIVE_IND ='Y', get Revise_val_amt as "corp_type"
    and in order to go about this, I utilised the following query:

    My output is: 7 rows i.e.
    3 rows of return id = 3715944,
    3 rows of return id = 4117092
    and 1 row of return id = 4382179
    It should only retrieve rows for 3715944 and 4117092; not for row =4382179 and this is because based on question in 5 "c", rows retrieved were for return ids' = 3715944 and 4117092
    I know where the problem is:
    As soon as it retrieves rows for returns 3715944 and 4117092 (because REVISE_VAL_AMT is greater than 500,000), it also finds another record with return id = 4382179 with greater than 500,000 and it blindly brings that as well.
    Is there a way around to ensure that I my results are compared only against the return id's retrieved from 5 "c" = 3715944 and 4117092
    Believe me I have tried every option that I could think of to remove return id = 4382179 but somehow could not.
    Dear Gurus @ OTN, please help me.

    Thanks for your words of wisdom guys. Appreciate it.
    Anyways what ever I asked, I was able to get solution for it by using an inline query and it's as follows:

    2 rows selected.Anyways I am stuck in another issue and that is:
    Based on what I have received above - I have been given a new requirement and that is:
    retrieve the corresponding Schedule 002 data (if exist) from the RETURN_LINE_ITEMS table:
    *•     Sched_nbr = ‘002’, and Litm_line_item_nbr = ‘001’, and Active_ind = ‘Y’, get Revise_val_amt as ‘special_allocation’*
    *•     Sched_nbr = ‘002’, and Litm_line_item_nbr = ‘002’, and Active_ind = ‘Y’, get Revise_val_amt as ‘ab_salaries_wages’*
    So in order to do this, I committed 5 additional rows with schedule number 002 and they are as follows:

  • Report with multiple queries

    Hi All,
    I need to develop a report with 5 big queries.. and i need to union these queries based on the parameters passed but we cannot use if condition in the report sql qurey.Also tried to use lexical parameter in the after paraform trigger but it didn't accept lexical parameter as tablename in the query..
    for ex: select * from &w1 is not working.......... (say w1 is lexical parameter)
    please help
    thanx in advance.

    select * from &w1Infact, you can do so, but you have to make sure, that w1 has a valid table-name as default-value. Also, the column-name have to match in all the tables, or you have to alias. And lastly, i strongly suggest not to use SELECT *, but list all the desired columns separately.

  • Hints on building a report with multiple queries

    Hi all,
    I know this is not the best forum to address this question, but i know
    a lot of people here are using XML publisher with jdev to produce reports.
    any help is appreciated.
    Im a begginner with XML publisher and i am facing a problem!
    I had no troubles with reports containing one query but when i need more than
    one query inside my report I really dont know how to manage the whole thing
    I would love to know if someone could guide to some steps or to web site explaining
    the method to follow.
    I am using word to build my templates ---- if you could help towards this direction or
    tell what to use instead I would greatly appreciate
    Best Regards,
    Carl

  • Create single XML document from multiple queries

    hi all!
    being a new programmer in XML world,my question might sound a bit stupid but your answers would mean a world to me. i have to generate a single XML document from my database by querying more than one table. for example i have 3 tables i.e HR_EMP_NAME, HR_PRODUCTS_DETAIL, HR_PAYROLL_SUMMARY. all three tables have completely different columns except one ID column which is a foreign kay from HR_MASTER_LIST. i want to get any insert operation on these tables as a single document. so far as i have studied, one option is to generate XMLDoc using XSU and then add child nodes using JAXP but i am ot geting the logic right.
    please do reply.
    thanks a lot
    usman

    This is an SQL/XML based answer so how much it helps you is hard to say, but it would be one option. You can have the SQL statement build the XML for you as shown by this simple example.
    SELECT XMLElement("root",
              XMLForest(emp.dummy AS "emp_name",
                        prod.dummy AS "prod_lvl",
                        pay.dummy AS "pay_scale"))
      FROM dual emp,
           dual prod,
           dual pay
    WHERE emp.dummy = prod.dummy
      AND emp.dummy = pay.dummy;which produces (formatted for human readability)
    <root>
      <emp_name>X</emp_name>
      <prod_lvl>X</prod_lvl>
      <pay_scale>X</pay_scale>
    </root>Whether that works with what you are trying to do via Java you will have to decide.
