Reg Filter View in Combined Request OBIEE11g

Hi,
We have a requirement where we need to show the filter view in a combined request. Currently we have achieved the same but putting another request but the issue when the download of the request happens the filter view is not downloaded and it has to be downloaded separately. We are using OBIEE11g(11.1.1.6.9).
Please advise if there is any workaround to achieve this functionality so that download of results and filter view can be achieved in one shot. Thanks.

Dev,
Not possible to use the filter view in union request.Try creating the filters with filter view as a separate request and add them to the dashboard.

Filter view for combined request

Hello!
We have 12 requests combined to the single Answer's request using UNION. Each of these 12 requests has a filter. But when we try to display the filter view for the combined request, it says "Request contains no filters". Any ideas how to display the big "combined" filter?
Thank you!

I am assuming that the columns in each of your 12 individual queries are the same and you just have different combinations of filters to produce your final query. If so, try building this using one query and using the OR operand for each set of criteria that corresponds to the 12 different sets of filters. This way the filters will show up in Filter View.
If the columns in the 12 queries are simply the same datatype (minimum requirement), but different, then how would the user know which filter set corresponds to which set of columns since the "final" query will have one name for each column? It would be confusing at best. The only thing I can think of is having 13 queries, 12 individual ones and the one "combined query."
In your dashboard, display the "combined query" in the Compound Layout view in the usual manner. Underneath that query in the design mode of your dashboard. Add the 12 individual queries but only display the "Filter View" of each query.
With just the combined query, nothing will display in Filter View as you surmised.

Few values of report column do not display in report while applying filter

Post Author: anuragg11
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
There are 6 drill filters applied on the report to filter out the report column data. Few values of the report are not displaying in the report when using drill filter. Same issue is with report filter too. If filters are removed then values are appearing in the report. We are using version BO XI R2 & Java runtime JRE 1.4v. It doesn't look issue is with Java version because only few specific data of the report column are not shown in the report when using filter on the data. Example: One of Report data column contains below values: 24.2, 26.9, 120.1, 230, 274.9, 275.8, 333.2 Report is displaying all these values when there is no filter on any data. But report doesn't display data when applying filter on 274.9 or 120.1 howver filter on other values 24.2, 26.9, 230, 275.8, 333.2 are working fine.

Hello,
I think i know what your problem is.
Although in table view your 2 requests combine perfectly and show separate results in pivot view BI unfortunaterly adds them up.
One work around would be to go in your criteria add in each request a dummy column. This can be obtained the following way:
1. click on a column to add it in the criteria (it doesnt matter which one)
2. go into the edit formula of that column
3. delete the formula and in its place write 'Dummy Column 1'
Do the same for the second request by adding a "Dummy Column 2'
Now the Pivot Table should also show up correctly
Let me know if it goes well or if you have any further questions,

Apply filter based on LOV

I have 2 reports by 2 different dates; current date and future date
report1 is determined by applying filter to current date
report2 is determined by applying filter to future date
and layout for both report are same, user wants combine the above into a single report with an option of selecting any date he wants...?
any ideas please......

Hi,
do the following steps to achieve this.
(1) create prompt that contains -
(i) "Date option" using any column....write sql like {{ select 'Current' from <Presentation table name> where 1=0 Union
select 'Future' from <Presentation table name> where 1=0 }}
and take this value in Presentation variable say....VarOption //For user choice to select Current or Future date.
(ii) Date column either current or future. and use that date value in Presentation variable say....VarDate
(2) at Report side - (Union both report)
(i) create one more column say "Date option" on both report.and edit formula as "Current" in report1
and "Future" in report2
(ii) apply filter on "Date option" where value=@VarOption and "Current date"=@VarDate on report1.
apply filter on "Date option" where value=@VarOption and "Future date"=@VarDate on report2.
....let me know if it helps you

Applying filter sales org in Middleware

Hi Friends
We have a requirement wherein we need to apply filters on sales org via transaction R3AC1 in CRM.
Basically, We want to download customer hierarchy node customers from R/3 to CRM. These node customers have account group 0012 and Z012 in R/3.
To download these node customers, we have to add account groups Z012 and 0012 in Trx PIDE in R/3.
In CRM we can filter on sales org. via trx R3AC1, object CUSTOMER_MAIN.
But it does not seem possible to filter on combinations of account group and sales org
For example:
We want to download customers with sales org 0000, but only if these customers have account group 0012 or Z012
For other sales orgs, we want account groups ZC01, 0005, 0001 and Z002.
Accordingly there are few more conditions to be added but there is no provision in the tcode R3AC1.
I think there must be some user exits/ BADI's to do this. Could you please guide me on this ?
Pl let me know if you need any further details.
Thank You
Anil

Hi Anil,
I think this should be possible without using a BADI. If you define filter for sales data, all customers are being replicated but sales data will be only maintained in the sales area specified in the filters. This is the standard behaviour but it can be modified
by setting the flag in TA PIVV 'Completely Filter Customer Data Relating to KNVV', as explained in note 614102.
Please be sure also to follow note 788822 point 13 wrt CUSTOMER_MAIN and CUSTOMER_REL filtering.
Best regards,
Brian.

Error in applying filter on coherence data

I am trying to apply filter on coherene cache data in *.Net*.
I put some data on cache. I am able to retrieve all data using AlwaysFilter. But when I try to apply any custom filter ( like on line 3 below) I am getting error Unknon user type 1002. I have POF config file with proper user type 1002.
INamedCache Cache = CacheFactory.GetCache("DSOM-Part-Cds-watsportal");
var AllList1 = Cache.GetValues(new AlwaysFilter()); ///This code works properly. It give me all the objects I put in cache.
var entries = Cache.GetEntries(new EqualsFilter("getOrderNo", "testOrder")); //Getting below error on this line
Am I missing anything here?
ERROR :

Edited by: 994003 on Mar 14, 2013 12:40 PM

Hi,
If you have a POF configuration with an entry for 1002, is the cache server actually using the correct configuration file. In the server side log file you should see something like this...
2013-03-18 08:47:14.287/9.343 Oracle Coherence GE 3.7.1.7 <Info> (thread=DistributedCache:SequenceService, member=1): Loaded POF configuration from "file:/C:/project/out/production/core/config/pof-config.xml"; this document does not refer to any schema definition and has not been validated.so you can see if the correct file is being used.

Selecting a column in Answers report based on user prompt/ apply filter

I need to do the following in OBIEE Answers report (version 10.1.3.4.1):
1) Think of a simple table with dim TX_type and some measures like month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
so the fact table looks like (column names) tx_type, month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
2) I need to select the measure column based on a user dashboard prompt, prompt populates a presentation variable var_month = jan or feb or mar
3) I need to select the correct measure (one of these month_jan, month_feb, month_mar) and then apply column filter based on the dim TX_type to split the values of these into multiple columns for report. So the report may look like (in Answers)
Sales , Tax, overheads
where Sales may be defined as sum(month_jan) where rows have TX_type = 'sales'
where Tax may be defined as sum(month_feb) where rows have TX_type = 'tax'
where overheads may be defined as sum(month_mar) where rows have TX_type = 'overheads'
IF the user selects jan
IF user selects Feb then the 3 report columns are based on month_feb and likewise for month_mar
I cannot use column selector option as the report column further apply filter in column filter definitions in Answers...
4) When I try to build the column filter using a presentation variable (var_month), the presentation variable is not getting populated in the column filter.
For e.g. IF var_month = 'jan'
THEN month_jan (let us assume the logical column name is month_jan too)
ELSE month_feb and so on...
However, the var_month always shows 0 in the IF clause. If we used a repository variable instead, it works fine. But since repostory variable cannot be changed on the fly (by user prompt) it is not usable.
We cannot change fact table defintion....and we have 12 measures column and about 8-10 different colum filter based report columns using this measure.

Hi shyamvaran,
have you thought about a SQL statement in the prompt, something like:
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Jan' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Feb' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Mar' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Apr' end
FROM "Subject Area"
etc...
Use this to give you the 12 values for your months then give the prompt column a presentation variable name and set a default value in the 'Default To'. Also set the same default value for the filter.
A couple of points:
1. If you're transforming the presentation variable from 'Jan' to 'month_jan' you may need to edit the syntax for the filter column (not using the dialog box).
2. If you're transforming the behaviour of a dimension / measure column in the report, have you specified the syntax correctly, e.g. sum('@{pres_var}')?
Hope this helps,
Justin

How to capture the values after applying filter in ALV.

Hi,
I have an ALV in my application with 10 projects displayed. Out of those 10 projects, 5 projects have banking as industry.
when you filter the ALV based on industry banking I get 5 projects .In run time how can I capture only these 5 projects. when I debugged and saw the ALV table node is holding 10 prj not 5 prj.
How can read only those 5 values. Kindly help me out with sample code.
Thanks,
Priya

Hi,
The class name is correct - CL_SALV_WD_FIELD. When you refer the model object(CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE-IF_SALV_WD_FIELD_SETTINGS) this will return the field for which
you have applied filter by passing the field name.
Before you try out this approach, check the ALV event ON_CELL_ACTION fro that column name to capture the filtering value. Based on this loop at the table where field eq <<filerting value>> and get the filtered records.
As you have get_static_attributes_table it deosnot return the filtered values.
Regards,
Lekha.

PSE 10 crashes when applying filter

Steps to reproduce
1. Load image (In my case .NEF file)
2. Select Smart Brush (either one)
3. In the options bar, select Show All > Florescent Chalk
4. Apply filter. Elements starts creating multiple layers and than crashes.
Can reproduce this every time and so far only with the Florescent Chalk filter. (Crashes with Raw and jpg)
Windows 7 64 bit, 8GB mem, GeForce GTX 275 video

The action Florescent Chalk should still show up for the Smart Brush Tool under show all.
I had to start pse 10 up a second time before it would show (that's without rebuilding the media data base file)
I think the updated action was just to address the crash with the smart brush tool and it would probably take a major rewrite of the action
to enable it to work with a selected part of a layer and with the smart brush tool at the same time (the two effects use the same action), as
most of those image effect actions are quite old and some haven't been changed much since photoshop 4 (the first photoshop version with actions around 1996/97).
You should be able to make a selection on the layer, new layer via copy, then run the action from the effects panel for a similar result as just making a selection on a layer.

Outer Join or Combine Requests

I have tables A (Account), B (Measures), and C (Time). I want all values from table A to appear in queries regardless of data or lack of in the other tables. I have created a left out join from A to B and this works fine...until I need to query on year from table C. (B and C have an inner join.) Querying on year form table C is mandatory, but when I do so I don't get any Account data. I can get this to work in SQL if I nest a select statement joining B and C (and then A left outer joined to nested B/C select statement)...but i can't find a way to do this in Answers. The SQL on the advanced tab is not at this level. Any suggestions? Is there a way to do this in Answers at the report level—maybe by combining requests?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!

I tried to do the same with an admin account still its showing the same error but when when I edit the report its not throwing the error. The problem is with the View mode

Not sure why this is but deleting the input controls in the edit mode and re-applying works sometimes.

Reg Sorting in Combined Request in OBIEE11g

Currently we are facing a problem in OBIEEE11g Combined Request where sorting is not happening on any column at all. Please note that sorting should be dynamic on which column the user selects based on the column property available. Sorting works for normal request but not for combined request.
Please advise if there is any way or workaround to resolve this issue. Thanks.
Edited by: user11008583 on Mar 25, 2013 12:46 AM

Thanks for your response. We have a requirement where the Column Sorting should happen on any column based on what user selects from UI. This is working for a normal request but not for Combined Request in 11g. Please provide your valuable inputs to resolve this issue.
