Another shortcoming in BIP: Can show only 1 column in an LOV.

<h1>Another thing I noticed: In BIP LOVs cannot show the 2 columns that Oracle Reports shows. Please see below image comparing the 2 situs.</h1>
!http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/1636/lov2colproblem.gif!
<h1>Any workaround for this? Because now in BIP the user sees only codes and not the description/names. So how does the user select what he wants just by looking at a code. He should see the name as well.</h1>

There are two options.
You choose'd, the parameter type as MENU
you got to use it other way.
select NAME, CODE from TABLE
BIP shows, NAME and internally CODE will be passed inside the parameter.If you want to show both in MENU format, do this.
select NAME||CODE "NAME", CODE from TABLEIf you want more Advanced Type LOV,
Choose, Search in the parameter type.
it will automatically show all the columns

Show only specific columns

hello,
using obiee 11g
I have a requirement like this
I have 2 prompts, begin date and close date as prompts,Depending upon the date selected i want to show or hide the column.
By default i made the prompts to show current date and current_date-365
And also the column header and the data shows properly for the column.
My only problem is if i select the date as
01/01/2011 to 30/07/2011 it should show only 7 months data so should show only 7 columns and hide rest 5 columns.
Its showing from jan to Dec and I want it to show only jan to july?
Is this possible is my question?
Thanks

Hello Deepak,
Went through the Article,
I created a filter report which has 2 columns and 1 row->Start And End Date.
More info on my req--->
Actually my data is in column wise and not row wise,i.e. my columns are dynamic,headings are start date as col1 and .....and show start date+12 as the last column.
I have 12 columns in the main report whose header i am taking from the prompt values because i want the header to be dynamic depending upon the date selected.
So in that prompt i have 12 variables for each 1 headings.So first variable will have the value like startdate prompt and then next variable will have startdate+1.
In the column formula for each column i am using a filter function to filter the measure column depending
the month and year of the table.date
is equal to
the month and year of the start date prompt.
So in the main report if i add a filter based on another request,since i have the data as column, no effect its showing.
Thanks

Why Flash chart is showing only 15 bars

Hi,
I have created a flash chart, a 2d column chart, but it is showing only 15 columns, I have checked that query is returning more that 20 rows.
When I created a Pie chart with the same query, it too showing 15 pieces with one extra piece 'Other' by calculating other remaining rows.
Can anybody tell, why bar and pie chart are not showing all the rows?
Thanks

Hi Ben,
Your tip really helped me to fix a chart problem. I have a stacked bar chart and there were more than 25 columns. Due to the limitation, the chart was showing incorrectly with wrong values. After increasing the limit, it displays correctly now.
Thanks a lot

Bex Report to show only latest record on report and then history

Hello Gurus,
Table 1:
Employee
Valid From
Valid To
Hours Perday
1900
01/01/2014
02/28/2014
8
1900
03/01/2014
03/31/2014
6
1900
04/01/2014
12/31/9999
4
Table 2:
I have above in DSO, On report I need to show the latest record without Valid From and Valid To Fields shown below.
Employee
Hours Perday
1900
4
And when user drags Valid From and Valid To field from free charac. it should show history as in DSO. I have leveraged 0VALIDTO customer exit processing variable with variable as "Value Ranges" >= Key Date so when query is executed if date entered is 04/01/2014 it should bring last record with Hours perday=4 and if date is entered as 03/01/2014 should bring two records with hours per day 6 and 4 and so on.
The problem on report is that the record being pulled is always latest but when Valid To and Valid From free characteristics are dragged on the report it still shows the latest record and no history. Is there a way that when key date is entered it should show latest record as per >= of that key date and when Valid from is dragged in to report it should display history prior to that key date?
Thanks,
Sam

Hi Sam,
You are almost in the right direction. A little fine tuning is required in your process
As you are dealing with Time dependent Master data, the ideal thing to use is "Key Date" in the query. But there is a limitation here. Key Date can show only single date's relevant master data. I mean if you enter 03.01.2014, only second record would be shown. Key date cannot work on Multiple dates or ranges to fetch historical data or multiple records accordingly.
To achieve your requirement, you should not use Key date in your query.
I have leveraged 0VALIDTO customer exit processing variable with variable as "Value Ranges" >= Key Date
The above idea is good. You should make Valid From as Cust exit(i_Step =2) processed and make it as User Entry enabled. So that user exit code can pick up values as per > = Valid From(User Entry Based). But this user exit will be picking historical records if user enters other than latest Valid from date. I mean no drilldown is required. You need to use Valid from in rows also, I believe.
Try this and let me know if you want any more inputs.

That's about what it's supposed to look.
How do You want it to look ?
a. You can change places by using this
b. May be You changed this top right symbol of an hard disk ?
c. or changed the number of frames to be viewed ?
d. OR - it can (at least for me) be so that You think of how it looks in iPhoto. (To me a very common mistake)

Web part created on a subsite for a sharepoint list in another site using sharepoint designer, to show only the subsite's reports. Connection dropping off and showing all the reports

I crated web parts in the sub-sites (we have about 10 subsites) using sharepoint designer from a main list in another site. Then used web part to show only the ubsite's reports - using connection to the main list. Problem is, the connection
is dropping off and showing all the reports on the main list that are confidential. this has happened 3 time lately. Could someone explain why it happens some times? I had to fix it by adding the web part again and connecting it
Thanks, Subathy.

Hi George,
If you want to use a top level site "department" list column in all sub-sites, you can go to top level site and create a
lookup type "Site column" to look up the value from the department list, then all sub-sites can use this lookup type site column created in top level site.
Thanks

On the bottom bar of the window (on the left iPhoto 11, on the right in other versions) note the slider. Drag it left.

How can I get Expose to show only and all active windows, regardless of app

Sometimes I have two applications running with several finder windows hidden on the dock. I'd like to know how I can (or if I can) get Expose to show only the Active windows - not the ones on the dock. With this new upgrade, it seems that all open windows that are on the dock appear in a row at the bottom of the screen, which takes up real estate - can I turn that function off so just the open, undocked windows of all apps show?

Sounds like you opened a message in a new window. Have you tried closing that window and see what happens?
If that is not it maybe you can post a screen shot of what you are seeing.

Are the contact details in your contacts app, the phone app uses the contact app to put names against telephone numbers.

I have several pdfs on my iPad in iBooks. My iPhone shows only the categories, none of the documents. How can I get my iPhone to also show the documents that are on my iPad?

I have several pdfs on my iPad in iBooks. My iPhone shows only the categories, none of the documents. How can I get my iPhone to also show the documents that are on my iPad?

You will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your computer (that will copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and you can then sync them to your iPhone. Or you might be able to open each PDF in iBooks on your iPad and use the share icon to email them to yourself and then use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPhone to copy them to its iBooks app (if the PDF is protected then you may not get the email option via the share icon).
The Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections setting doesn't copy items between devices, it just means that it a bookor PDF is on both devices and you move it into a collection on one device then it will be moved into the same collection on the other device

When calling report in forms, only html format can show chinese characters

To all experts,
When I run report by calling run_report_object() in forms, only html format can show chinese characters. If I choose pdf format, garbage characters were shown instead of chinese characters. My settings on server are as follows:
NLS_LANG=TRADITIONAL CHINESE_HONG KONG.UTF8
FORMS60_REPFORMAT=PDF
Do you know why? I hope to print report in PDF format as PDF turned out to be more regular in format. Is there any additional settings required?
May experts here broaden my mind?
Richard

Assuming that you are using version 6i, try using Oracle9i Reports it has support for multi-byte in PDF.
By the way, Reports questions will get better response if you send them on the reports forum.

You have two different ways of generating Japanese PDF files from Reoprts. One is font aliasing and the other is font subsetting.
<font aliasing>
You will need to have the following entries in uiprint.txt (example).
[ PDF ]
.....JA16SJIS = "KozMinPro-Regular-Acro"
"MS UI Gothic".....JA16SJIS = "KozMinPro-Regular-Acro"
You may need to download and install Japanese Font Pack from Adobe's web site (if your Acrobat is non-Japanese version).
<font subsetting>
You will need to add C:\WINNT\Fonts (or wherever your TTF/TTC fonts are installed) to your REPORTS_PATH.
You will also need to have the following entries in uiprint.txt (example).
[ PDF:Subset ]
"Andale Duospace WT J" = "Aduoj.ttf"
"Albany WT J"="AlbanWTJ.ttf"
"MS UI Gothic" = "msgothic.ttc"

Another shortcoming in BIP: Can show only 1 column in an LOV.
