About the filter function in OBIEE 11g

Hi, all.
when i use the filter function in OBIEE 11g, it turn out a wrong result.
The operation steps and detail are described as follow:
1. In the Column Formula pane, I typed the Formula of the column 'count of customer' as:
FILTER(count(distinct("customer info dimesion"."customerID")) USING ("TradeType Dimesion"."TradeType" = '001'))
2. But the phisical SQL about this column in the NQquery file is that: "count(distinct(T11520.CUSTOMERID)) as c5, "
which means that, the filter wasn't applied, right?
If so, what shall I do in this situation, in other words , how can i make a Condition COUNT？
Any Suggestion is appreciated!
Thank you in advance~~O(∩_∩)O~

Hi katherine,
FILTER(count(distinct("customer info dimesion"."customerID")) USING ("TradeType Dimesion"."TradeType" = '001'))I think your formula there is mistake like many braces...instead type this in your f(x)
=>Filter(count(distinct customer_id) USING trade type='001')
This filter function is same like a case statement,if you filter still gives error write a case statement
CASE WHEN TradeType Dimesion.TradeType='001' THEN count(distinct customer info dimesion.customerID) ELSE 0 END
Will it be helpful?,follow this etiquette http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=939

Converting Decode function in OBIEE

Hi Guru's
we are converting some BO reports to OBIEE and need to convert Decode function
Below is the Decode function they are using:
Decode ( sign(nvl(BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC.qty_shipped,0)), 0,decode(BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC.DELIVERY_NUMBER, 0,decode(BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC.Schd_Ship_date_fk,to_date('1/1/1990','mm/dd/yyyy'),'Next Month Backlog',decode(sign(nvl(BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC.Schd_Ship_date_fk, '01-JAN-90') -PAR.PAR_DATE), 1, 'Next Month Backlog', 'Current month will ship')) ,'Awaiting for collection') ,'MTD Shipped')
i have tried converting into case :
case when sign(IFNULL("BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC"."Qty Shipped",0)) = 0 then (case when "BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC"."Delivery Number" = 0 then (case when "BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC"."SCHD_SHIP_DATE_FK" = '01-JAN-1990' then 'Next Month Backlog' else (case when Timestampdiff(SQL_TSI_DAY, cast('@{ParDate}{28-DEC-2012}' as Date),(case when "BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC"."SCHD_SHIP_DATE_FK" IS NULL then CAst('01-JAN-1990' as DATE) else "BOOKINGS_DATA_UDTC"."SCHD_SHIP_DATE_FK" end)) > 1 then 'Next Month Backlog' else 'Current Month Will Ship' end) end) else 'Awaiting For Collection' end) else 'MTD Shipped' end

Issues with integrating Java script functions in OBIEE 11G

Hello experts..
I am trying to integrate some Javascript functions in my OBIEE 11G Dashboard..
I have modified the original common.js file and renamed it as insight_common.js in the following directory (backed up the original file of course)
OBIEE 11G Folder/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/servers/bi_server1/tmp/_WL_user/analytics_11.1.1/7dezjl/war/res/b_mozilla/insight_common.js
In my dashboard, I have a dashboard object as text component where I have checked 'Contains HTML Markup'. I have written the following code:
hello
<script src="/res/b_mozilla/insight_common.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
sayHi();
</script>
However, when I launch the dashboard, it is not working.
In the Google Chrome browser as I inspected the element to investigate the reason, I am getting the following error under 'console'
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://localhost/res/b_mozilla/insight_common.js
Uncaught ReferenceError: sayHi is not defined saw.dll:611
It seems that OBIEE is not recognizing the new file that I made..
Is there a way around this?
Thanks

Srini
I don't have backgrounds in coding, so a lot of what I wrote came from my own researching...
Now I have tried your latest suggestions again as the below:
1.<script type="text/javascript" src="res/b_mozilla/insight_common.js">
sayHi();
</script>
and
2.
<script type="text/javascript" src="res/test.js"></script> ----- in my case: <script type="text/javascript" src="res/b_mozilla/is_common,js"></script>
Now both codes this time do not yield any outputs when launching the dashboard. The section is blank and the preview of the Text section in the dashboard is blank as well..
So, are you sure these are all the steps I need to take to call javascript function in OBIEE?
Do I need to define anything in weblogic or other places?
I hope I am not missing any steps..
Thanks and let me know..

MouseOver functionality in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have a requirement to have tool tip, when we keep mouse on columns in report/dashboard,
can anyone help me to acheive this in obiee 11g.
Thanks in advance,
mahi.

Hi Kobe,
No P2 holds the parameter name like PresentationTable.ColumnName, in your form you may go for complete name or just column name and before submitting the form you can define the Action url.
I would suggest to read section 6.3.2.1.
ex:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
changeAction(url) {
var TestVar = form.inputbox.value;
document.this_form.action="saw.dll?Go&Path=/Shared/Test/SB2&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=like&P2=Customers.Region&P3="+TestVar;
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<FORM NAME="myform" ACTION="" METHOD="GET">Enter something in the box: <BR>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="inputbox" VALUE=""><P>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="button" Value="Click" onClick="changeAction(this.value)">
</FORM>
If helps pls mark.

Applying a patch to OBIEE 11g

Hello Everyone,
I am new to OBI and specially new to 11g, Now most of you guys will know that there was a bug in 11g in which if you want to see the query generated by the report in session log, It shows "no log found". Now there was a patch available which i have downloaded and i am not so sure as to how to apply that patch to OBI, I tried all the steps given in the read me doc provided with the doc. but all in Vain, as it is very confusing and more importantly it doesnt work,
Can any one help me out here by telling me the actual steps involved.
Thanks,

Try the following -
1. cd to oracle home folder\opatch
set oracle_home=your home directory (iethe parent of opatch\ folder)
opatch lsinventory -patch -detail
The last command should run and say "opatch successful".
Now run the command:
2. opatch apply -verbose "your patch folder's complete path"
(verbose tells u the sequence, success or errors if any)
OK - now,
3. The patch on my PC failed saying that I needed to install the latest opatch. I downloaded the latest opatch (11.2 even though the patch (ie the "no log found" patch) requires 11.1.0.8.2 or something) and just extracted it to the oracle home folder - yes, it will overwrite the current opatch folder, so back it up before you copy the latest opatch folder.
4. After this, I ran the command again from step 2 again. It seemed to be running, ie somewhat successful, but it asked for my oracle support login, some proxy server crap so it could connect to the internet, also gives options to specify "NONE" if you didn't need all this - but never came back...at that point, I quit. I tried again and it got stuck at the same point - so, I wasn't sure if it succeeded or not.
5. I assumed the patch ran OK and tried to view the log - but this time it gave a different error "it is not a Win32 application" or something like that. I am sure that I downloaded the win32 patch only. Yet, I am going to check and try it out again tomorrow.
Let me know if it worked for you and the details.
Hope all this helps :-)

RE:Date Function in Obiee 11G Rpd

Hi
I had a Time Dimension, I need to show only the data from Jan 2012 to 2 months after from the current Month(Dynamic)
Can any body tell me how to write this in rpd using rpd functions?

You can create a dynamic repository variable that gives current month+2 months. Use this variable in the filter where you want to filter from 'Jan 2012' till that variable.
Variable need to be in the same format that you have 'Jan 2012'.
Pls mark if helpful/correct.

How to use CAST function in obiee 11g in rpd

Hai,
I am trying to use the cast fucntion in rpd in bmm layer for a new logical column that I have created and is giving me error compile message.
Can any one please help me out or find out what is wrong in the function I am using.
The expression I am trying to use is
( CAST ( "Chase Card Acquisition"."Fact Deposit"."Base Earn" as decimal(18,0) ) + "Chase Card Acquisition"."Fact Deposit"."Tot Bonus Earn" )

Decimal is not a supported type in the logical layer. See:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/bi.1111/e10540/sqlref.htm#BIEMG559
for supported types.
If you are casting as Int then do not specify the precision ('cast x as int' NOT 'cast x as int(y,z)'). Regards,
Robert

Decode function issue / problem ..

Dear Sir / Madam,
Thanks for your understanding.
Right now I am facing a unique problem.
I am using decode function in a select statement. The columns are dynamic some columns are of type number and some are varchar datatypes. I want to apply decode function for every column irrespective of datatype.
What i am finding difficult is if the column is a number datatype , the decode funciton is working good but if the column datatype is varchar or char datatype then i am getting ..the error ..
report error:
ORA-01722: invalid number
here's the decode function..
decode (CHAI.EVNDRIVE,
-800000000000000,'.A',
-700000000000000, '.B',
-600000000000000 ,'.C',

how to use the above decode function irrespective of datatype..
pls let me know how to over come this kind of scenario.
is their a way to find whether the column datatype is number or char , so that i can check the column datatype before the decode funciton is applied ..
thanks ..
kumar

You can try ,
This is a "cheap and dirty" solution,
but it should work (if CHAI.EVNDRIVE is varchar2):
decode (CHAI.EVNDRIVE,
'-800000000000000','.A',
'-700000000000000', '.B',
'-600000000000000' ,'.C',

Patch processing in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
Is there any document regarding patch processing for both catalog and rpd? I have seen some 2 to 3 blogs and tried executing the patch, but got some error in that they have mentioned to look *"the Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition's Presentation Services Administration Guide"* for more info. But I didn't find any document like that. So where to get that?
Thanks,
Satheesh

Hi,
Please check the below document from oracle on Patching Oracle Fusion Middleware Applications:

2. Set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located.
cd PATCH_TOP/12561330
3. Run OPatch to apply the patch.
Run following command:

Could you please suggest me the exact process to apply the patch.

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
