BI Answers Subtotals in Hierarchy Column

Hello,
I am building an operational statement using BI Answers. However, I'm having trouble finding some functionality that is required.
1. Subtotal for each level of the hierarchy - I can only find grand total - no option for subtotals
2. When the group is collapsed it should show the subtotal for the group on the group row. Then, when the row is expanded, the values should be removed in the group row and show a subtotal row at the bottom.
Any ideas on these two?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am trying to increase column width.In the report i am displaying 15 columns.This column project description is one of the 15 columns in the report.
To increase column width for this column i tried column properties->column format->additional formatting options->width 5000
and also i tried
column properties->column format->custom css style options (HTML only)->select custom style-?width:5000em
Both these options didn't worked for me.
Hope it is clear now.
Thanks in advance

Subtotals in a report with hierarchy columns

Hi Everyone,
I'm using Essbase as a source with OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 and Essbase has two dimensions as below:
Account dimension (four levels): Total Accounts -> Account Category -> Account Subcategory -> Account Number (Eg: Total Accounts -> Revenue -> Operating Revenue -> 1001, 1002)
Project dimension (three levels): Total Project -> Project Class -> Project Number (Eg: Total Project -> Capital -> 100010, 100011)
I have a report requirement as below:
     Account Dimension         Project Number     Amount
     Revenue                         Total Project          300
       Operating Revenue        Total Project          300
          1001                         100010                  100
                                          100011                  100
          1001 Subtotal                                         200
          1002                         100010                  75
                                          100011                  25
          1002 Subtotal                                        100
I have achieved the required format using hierarchy column for accounts dimension, however, I'm not sure how to achieve subtotals for account number.
Any ideas how to achieve subtotals when using hierarchy columns?
Many Thanks,

Hi, I have 2 reports, the first one is working perfectly, here's the code :
SELECT UNITESOINSCODE, '' || '' || COUNT (*) || '' num_of_emp FROM CLINIBASE_VIEW4MAI where "CLINIBASE_VIEW4MAI"."UNITESOINSCODE" NOT IN ('CHIJ','PREM','CR','NURS') and "CLINIBASE_VIEW4MAI"."DHREDECES" IS NULL and "CLINIBASE_VIEW4MAI"."DHREDEP" IS NULL and "CLINIBASE_VIEW4MAI"."ETATLIT" ='OCC' GROUP BY UNITESOINSCODE
For the 2nd report , how to change the following code to be like the first report?
select UNITESOINSCODE, max(decode(LITETATCODE, 'FER', cnt, 0)) LITSFERMES, max(decode(LITETATCODE, 'LIB', cnt, 0)) LITSLIBRES, max(decode(LITETATCODE, 'FER', cnt, 0)) + max(decode(LITETATCODE, 'LIB', cnt, 0)) TOTAL from (select LITETATCODE LITETATCODE, UNITESOINSCODE UNITESOINSCODE, COUNT(LITETATCODE) cnt from ETATDESLITS WHERE "ETATDESLITS"."CALCDSCAP" not in ('1') group by LITETATCODE, UNITESOINSCODE) group by UNITESOINSCODE;
thanks

Hiding a hierarchy column in graph view

Hi,
Edit the pivot table and graph and at the below you can see the selection steps for the individual components. So that you can give separately for each of the components.

OBIEE 11g after expand Hierarchy Columns move the page to where the expand was clicked

Hi,
I have a question about expanding the hierarchy columns.
I have made so that some information are only show when press the + sign to expand extra information.
The problem I am having is that when the + sign is pressed to expand the content, the whole page get refresh and move back to the top of the page.
Is there a way to stay where the screen was after expanding, instead of going back to the top of page?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Niraj,
I think you are on 11.1.1.5 + version here. Now, that you have two security realms configured (one for AD and one default), please add one more parameter virtualize = true in the EM (just the page where you added user.name etc).
This parameter would help BI Server recognize the two realms set up here.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar

Hi
As far as i know you can't do this,the option you have is to create one more column (subtotal) and populate it by manual calculation at every subtotal (not alv subtotal but yours) .

Re-sizing hierarchy column in ALV Tree

Hi all,
I have created a class inheriting from CL_GUI_ALV_TREE that is used to create a Tree structure for Equipment.....
Now my requirement is that the Hierarchy column should be re-sized based on the width of the node text.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.....

You can control the size of the hierarchy column by setting the following field:
*Set the width as follows
g_hierarchy_header-width = 200.
*Reference the g_hierarchy_header structure when calling the following method
CALL METHOD tree1->set_table_for_first_display
    EXPORTING
    is_hierarchy_header = g_hierarchy_header
      it_list_commentary = gt_header[]
      is_variant          = g_variant
      i_save              = g_save...

No data for Parent-child hierarchy column in Pivot table view

Hi all,
I used OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 Version.
I drag one Parent-child hierarchy column and one measure and show result with a pivot table view.
But when I click "+" icon to show detail level data,
It messaged that: "*the layout of this view combined with the data,selections,drills,or prompt values chosen resulted in no data*."
But it can show every-level data when I used table view.
It was so strange..
Did anybody meet this before?
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Anne

Hi,
Yes, I have the same problem with pivot table for hierarchy dimension.
If you use a normal table (not pivot) it seem to work. Unfortunatley with restrictions as normal table view have.
Same problem still exist in 11.1.1.6.5
I have logged a SR to Oracle about this.

Hi,
You need to write the below code in the prompt->Choice List Values(11 g)->SQL Results
SELECT Hier_column_name FROM subject_area_name where rank(measure_column_name)<10
I had tried this and works. Award points if problem got resolved.

Hierarchy columns in prompts

Hi,
When using a hierarchical column (parent-child type) in a prompt the underlying reports must have this column physically included and the hierarchy column must also be included in the graph/table or else it will not be filtered when a value is set in the prompt. This is very frustrating because I don't want to show the hierarchy value in graphs or summary tables, but I want to use the parent-child hierachy col. because it contains the organization and is therefore crucial and highly wanted functionality from users/customers.
I have several times tried to "force" Oracle to look at this as a bug, but they have a hard time to approve this.
Am I the only one that look at this as lack of functionality in OBIEE 11g?

Please request the password to the person that created the sR. In general, there 1 person per company assign to this function.

How to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by a

Hi Experts,
In OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0,how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
For example:
In SampleLite RPD, when we drag "Time Hierarchy" and Sales column into the report , and sent it by agent ,it will only display "Total" sales, not show all level value,such as Year,Month,Day.So how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
If we expand all levels and save them, it will be ok, however, when we add new data, it will be collpased automatically and not show the lowest level data, requiring Users or Developer to modify this report for expanding the hierarchy. We think it is very trouble, is there any good suggestion or method for achieving our requirement?

Hi Dpka,
Is it any difference? I look at the result is same.
Firstly, you said it is 'Add member of ',
Now, you said it is 'Keep member of'
Could you please tell me which options I must select ? Thanks very much.Here is some notes from the documentation to make a better sense of how those two options would work:
•Selection steps — When you create selection steps, you can add a group or a calculated item in a step. Subsequent Keep Only or Remove steps might reference members that were included in the group or calculated item.
◦A group list is affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, but the group outline value remains the same. For example, suppose the MyNewYork group contains Albany and Buffalo and its value is 100. Suppose Albany is removed in a later step. The value of the MyNewYork group remains at 100, but Albany is no longer listed with the group.
◦A calculated item is not affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, because removals can affect the components of the formula.
•Groups and calculated items — A step can include a group or calculated item. Groups and calculated items can be used only with Add steps; they cannot be used in Keep Only or Remove steps.

Master Detail Link Between Hierarchy column and graph

Hi all,
I have created report using hierarchy columns of project dimension.
Project total -> Project Group -> Project subgroup ->Project Name
When I click Project Group of hierarchy column , Graph has to change with respect to that column.
Help me as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance,
Haree.

Hi,
Check if you are using the following types of views for the detail views:
-Graph
-Funnel graph
-Gauge
-Table
-Pivot table
A detail view:
-Can listen for master-detail events from multiple master views
-Can be in the same analysis as the master view or in a different analysis
-Cannot act as a master to another view
NOTE: Please mention if this resolved your problem/still facing and close the thread to assist others with similar problems.

Problem in Hierarchy column

Hi All,
Currently working in OBIEE 11g, I have kept product hierarchy column ( Product Total - > Product Group -> Product Sub Group -> Product Detail ) as dashboard prompt,
created graph with the following columns product hierarchy in report prompt level and In selection steps i have given keep only detail level and
while running dashboard, when i select group level ini product hierarchy the graph is showing all the products under that group.
But when i select one group level and another group detail level, the graph is showing only second group detail level Not the first.
My requirement is to show the detail level in both group.
Thanks in advance,
GN

Hi,
If you have created the dimension hierarchy then you need to go to the RPD and open the fact table in bmm layer. And go to the third tab 'Content' and see if the dim hierarchy is mapped. And make it as detail or the lowest level for your hierarchy in the drop down.
Check Consistency and restart services and check the data.
Hope this helps
