Adding 'All' filter in Obiee 11g dashboard prompt

Hi All,
I am using ver 11.1.1.5
My requirement is to see all data in dashboard prompt as well as there should be another item its 'ALL' which return the all data.
Example:
There is a dashboard filter on a field type (like: Value1,Value2) , our client want to see the data on filter (like: ALL,Value1,Value2) the ALL will filter the boat Value1and Value2.
Please explain with steps.

You have to go with SQL Results in the prompt something like below.
The 2nd statement can be other way so that its return all values..
Make sure that similar you have in report too so that you get all values for ALL
SELECT COL1 FROM "SA"
Union
SELECT CASE WHEN COL1 IS NOT NULL THEN 'ALL' ELSE COL1 END FROM "SA"
instead of not null you may go for like '%'

'All' filter in Obiee 11g dashboard

Hi All,
My client requirement is to see all data in dashboard prompt as well as there should be another item its 'ALL' which return the all data.
Example:
There is a dashboard filter on CustomerType (like: GOLD,SILVER) , our client want to see the data on filter (like: ALL,GOLD,SILVER) the ALL will filter the boat GOLD and SILVER.
-I think its very common but i cant do in OBIEE.

Select All is available in prompts but with limited scope.
The option "Include "*All Column Values" choice in the list*" is available, when we uncheck "*Enable user to select multiple values*".
So basically this option limits the choice to 'All' or "Only One value".
Desired functionality: 'All' or " multiple values"
Thanks,

OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompt Reset Button Functionality

Dear Experts,
Can anyone explain what is the exact functionality of 'Reset' Button in any OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompt.
If anyone found any documentation related to it... please let me know.
thanks,
Varun

Hi Varun,
This is the functionality of Reset button,
Reset will go back to last applied values. It does not clear values. Currently the Reset button works in the following ways:
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) reset 4) it should go back to blank.
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) apply 4) reset. 5) it should NOT to back to blank. actually it does not change anything.
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) apply 4) change any values 5) reset. 6) it should undo any changes in step 4.
Rgds,
Dpka

OBIEE 11g - Dashboard Prompts - Radio Buttons

I have a report where I need to run 3 different ways based on the same filter with different values. Each way has multiple values. I was hoping to create a Dashboard prompt as a radion button to allow the user to select which variation of the report to run. I would like the radio button to pass the multiple values to the filter based on the user's selection. Does anybody know if this is possible? If not, is there another reccommended way. I would prefer not to save three versions of the same report with the only difference being a filter. Also, I would prefer for the users not to have to select multiple values each time they run report depending on the version they want to run.
Thanks,
William

You create the dummy report with appropriate number of columns for filtering using combine request. Each request in this complex report will correspond a choosing in a radio button prompt. In a main report for every filtering column you need to use option 'results are based on another request'.

OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompts can be selected sequencely (unhide/hide)

Hi,
I want to show dashboard prompt sequencely. The user completed one of dashboard prompt the other prompts can be hide.
How can I make a relationship between dashboard prompts for selection the prompts one by one?
Do you have any suggestions?
thank your replies.

Thanks. I would need only ONE Clarification.
the Fact table has data at Date Level. For Example,
Date Revenue Stage
20120101 123.98 1a
20120302 178.965 1b
20120401 768.99 1c
The report should contain the following columns based on date range selection:- Start Date & End Date
Start_Date_Revenue End_Date_Revenue Start_Date_Stage End_Date_Stage
So, I have used FILTER(Revenue using Date = 'Presentation Variable for Start Date') & FILTER(Revenue using Date = 'Presentation Variable for End Date') for Revenue Calculation.
Similarly, is there any way to retrieve the stage columns data for each date and show it in report?
Note:_ I have tried the filter function for Dimension Column to bring Stage but it works only for Measure Column

OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompts

Hi,
I need some help on possible designs for dashboard prompts. We have a number of prompts which are based on SQL Results (custom query) in some dashboards. Unfortunately obi cannot "Limit values by" or constrain values returned by the selected values of another prompt.
My questions is what solutions have you tried & implemented to constraint the values returned by the selection values of another prompt when using SQL Results prompt?
Thanks in advance
Phil

Hi,
What we tried is having a presentation variable for the first prompt and according to the value of the first prompt, second prompt will show values.
For example,
First prompt has a presentation variable as @{first_prompt}
Second prompt has sql results as -SELECT "dim1_column1" from sh where "dim1_column2"=@{first_prompt}
Hope this helps.

Link to OBIEE 11g Dashboard Page from a 10g Dashboard Page

Hi all,
Is it possible to place a Link object on a dashboard page (within OBIEE 10g) and have that navigate to an OBIEE 11g dashboard page?
If so, how is that implemented?
Our 11g and 10g environments are on different servers.
For business reasons (and budgets) we are not migrating our entire 10g environment to 11g just yet.
Thanks.

You can use Go URL as long as they are on same network domain [Go URL|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21043_01/bi.1111/e16364/apiwebintegrate.htm#i1005050]

OBIEE 11g: Dashboard not invoking simple javascript alert

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to invoke one simple ALERT command with javascript in obiee 11g dashboard. The purpose is when it loads, it should print one ALERT message and also when we change something in the prompt and clicking Apply button.
Here is code written in a text item (Checked html markup option) after prompts;
<script language="Javascript">
alert ("Hello");
</script>
The Javascript alert message is showing when the dashboard page loads, but its not coming when we click the Apply button after changing the prompts.
Can anyone give helpful hint, how to check it and why its not showing up when we press Apply button?
Any hint or some useful links will b highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You just used code and I would say the default event is onload of the page, thats the reason you are able to see alert.
Since you didnt ask or written code onClick event to show alert, its not showing.
You need to tell to browser when to prompt alert message instead of onload.
Hope you are more confuse about 'how to do'
if yes, mark :)
give some more info about your actual req. that helps any other gurus to help.

Re: OBIEE 11g Dashboard Page Prompt

Hi all,
We have a Dashboard page in that multiple reports is there and one Region prompt is there with the scope of page level ,
once i gave the filter with that prompt every report is filtered based on that prompt values .
but in that reports for a particular report we were already drill down based on hierarchy and the remaining all reports are in highest level , now we were applies the filter through the prompt the remaining reports are filtered based on prompt value except that report which is in already drill down mode .
Can any body help me out , is it a tool limitation/ i have to do any changes.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
The report will react to a prompt only if there is a is promt column in that report. Check if there a is prompt filtered column in the report and remove it.
If you think that column is to be filtered as Is prompted and should not react to the dashboard prompt, then need to check...
Thanks

Auto filter by selection of dashboard prompt or other workaround

Hi all,
I have 2 dashboard prompts, let's say a Product ID and Product Desc.
How can I force user to select Product ID?
How can OBIEE auto-select the Product ID after users has selected Desc? Is it possible by writing scripts?
I ask this because we have faced a case that when user only chooses Desc but left the PID empty, the performance will be very slow and abnormally consumes all the RAM on server which leads server error. Product ID is from essbase, Product desc is from oracle db.
Thanks a lot and let me know if need clarification ~

Can you explain more about how to use the 'advanced' filtering which depends on another subquery?
Since I have tried to create a filter on the main report (Report A), which is depending on another report's query result (Report B). E.g. Report A's Product ID is 'equals or in' Product ID in report B, I have also set it as "is prompted".
Besides, I set a dashboard prompt on Report B, e.g. filter on product ID and Product desc. I put Report A and B together on the same dashboard page, put the Product ID and Product Desc as a prompt on that.
So now, PID and PDesc prompts will affect Report A and Report B.
My Wish is, even users only select filter on "Product Desc" --> Report B will be filtered and show corresponding and filtered "Product ID" --> use this list of product ID to filter Report A to limit the result.
However, it fails. Report A will filter the product ID by the 'original' saved version of Report B in Answers. That means 'no filtered' on Product ID. (As Report B I saved contains the product ID column of "is prompted" only.)
If friends here understands my question, or you have faced the same case, how can I solve it? Any workaround !?
Thank a lot !

OBIEE 10g Dashboard Prompt Multiple Values

A dashboard prompt is applied to filter on Regions, however the issue we're facing is that the region values show up multiple times (1000's). We want to show each value once and I read about 2 solutions:
1) Apply a select distinct SQL on the prompt - This does not work for us since the region is also a key field in the drill down (region consists out of states), the drill down overrules the select distinct and the prompt still shows multiple values. Any ideas?
2) Apply a cast to char on the dashboard prompt field - The values show up only once, however now the dashboard prompt does not get applied to the reports. Looking at the SQL nothing seems to come back from the database. This might have to do with the fact that the region data type in the business layer is VARCHAR with a max of 30, thoughts? I tried updating the cast to varchar(30) but that had no effect.
The cast sql is simple and looks like this:
SELECT CAST ("zzz"."Region" as char) FROM ...
Hopefully anyone can help us with this problem. Thanks!

Thanks for the tips!
1. No, it does not happen when the column is the only item in a report
2a. I updated the cast to a varchar and added the distinct because that seemed easier than changing the field types in the rpd. The new SQL looks like this:
SELECT DISTINCT CAST("zzz.Region" AS varchar(10)) FROM ...
2b. Also joining to a table with extra region information (the sequence how we present the values to the customer) provided unique values:
Select "zzz.Region" FROM ... ORDER BY "zzz."Region Sequence"
With both solution we force OBIEE to execute the SQL differently so that the key field in the dimension does not throw off the numbers

View maps on OBIEE 11g Dashboard

Hi All,
My Installation: I have OBIEE 11g installed on Windows Server 2008. My Database is SQL Server 2012.
My Requirement: Display maps in OBIEE Dashboard.
Firstly, from the various posts available online, I have understood that the OBIEE 11g MapViewer works ONLY with Oracle database. If this is true then I need another way to view maps because I don't have Oracle DB.
Can I have Google maps on my OBIEE dashboard ?
Any suggestions/advice will be highly appreciated.
Thanks n Regards

Downloading All Rows in OBIEE 11g

Hi all,
I'm just starting using OBIEE 11g, and found out the difference between 11g and 10g on the downloading of query result from the Answers.
In OBIEE 10g:
(1) Default rows shown in the table view is 25.
(2) Clicking on "show all rows" will show all available rows.
(3) Downloading to Excel will download all available rows, no matter what I'm currently seeing. So even if I'm seeing row 1-25, all available rows will be downloaded; if I'm seeing row 100-125, all available rows will be downloaded; and so forth.
In OBIEE 11g:
(a) Default rows shown in the table view is 25.
(b) Clicking on "show all rows" will only shows 500 rows.
(c) Downloading to Excel will only download the rows which are currently shown. So if I'm seeing row 1-25, that's all that will be downloaded; if I'm seeing row 501-1001, that's all that will be downloaded; and so forth.
I've looked at some blogs about this, and found out that it is possible to increase the number of maximum rows shown by adding <MaxVisibleRows>500000</MaxVisibleRows> and changing <DefaultRowsDisplayedInDownload>500000</DefaultRowsDisplayedInDownload> in the instanceconfig.xml file. It solved the problem (b) above. So now, clicking on "show all rows" will show 500000 rows. It's not really show all rows, but it should be enough.
However, problem (c) still exists. I can only download all rows after clicking "show all rows" first. It means, I will have to show the maximum 5000000 rows first so that I can download them. Which is different from 10g, as mentioned in point (3) above.
I'd like to be able to download all available rows without having to show all the rows first. Because if I have to show all the rows first, when there are a lot of records, it will make the browser hang. Is it possible to achieve the same method as what was done in 10g? Any advice?
Thank you very much.

How to apply filters for union all report in OBIEE 11g

Hi All
Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?
I am able to apply saved filters for normal reports but not for union reports.
The catalog pane is blank, when i click on result columns or each criteria.
The only option i see is to manually create the filters for each criteria, dont i have any choice to use a saved filter for union report?
Is this a bug or something i am unaware. Please guide me
Thanks

Hi manu,
Filter is created based on subject area.we can't use save filter in any other subject areas.
now we can use new filter for union reports.
if Helps please mark as correct.. :)

Parametrized BIP report integration on OBIEE 11g dashboard

HI Experts,
I have created BIP Report using SQL as source for my Dataset in Datamodel.Also, the report is parametrized with date value.
SELECT * FORM EMP
WHERE DEPT_NO=:DEPT_NO
AND HIRE_DATE<=:FROMDATE
AND HIRE_DATE>=:TODATE
DEPTNO : List of value (Select DEPTNO from DEPARTMENTS) and the Parameter is created as Menu type
FROMDATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type
TODATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type.
The Report is working fine in BI Publisher portal.. Now I want to integrate this report onto the dashboard. For, that I have created 3 dashboard prompts (column prompts) and set the values to presentation variables DEPT_NO and FROMDATE and TODATE respectively...
Now when I run my dashboard after choosing all the prompts the report is not getting generated. Instead, it is throwing below error.
oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.
I don't have an idea what is causing this issue and i verified LOG Viewer form Enterprise manager.. But, no use.. I couldn't figure out the issue..
Can any body help me how to resolve this issue..
Regards
Ramarao

Hi Ramarao,
There's many possible reasons why you're getting the error 'oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException'. Because it's an XDO error, I'm stewing more towards your template that you're using.
I would propose the following:
print the whole error that you retrieved
Change the SQL script from * to the specific column names and ensuring that maps correctly to your template
Hope this gets the ball rolling and one step closer to resolving the issue
Regards,
Daniel
