BIPublisher parameter problem in  OBIEE 10g

Hi,
We are facing problem in paassing parameter for CHAR type values.
We have a field CHAR type of 8 BYTE in database. We are passing these column values as parameter to the report.
When we are passing the value of 8 characters we are getting the report values. If we are passing the value less then 8 characters then the report is retrieving no values neither error is thrown. Only balnk report is displyes with column names.
If I am passing "DISTRICT" (8 characters) as parameter value then we are getting report output and if we are passing "STATE" or "COUNTRY" which is not 8 characters then no values retrieved.
Thanks.

The idea is setting page some fixed size say 100% of page width, so when you see the page in Outlook of 80% of width the dashboard page will get 100% of 80%.
The Email window overriding page width, this may be over come by setting page 100% as I said in other thread.

  • Problem in navigating from one report to another in OBIEE 10g

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue with OBIEE 10g while applying navigation on my reports.
    Lets suppose I made a report showing list of all items(in broad categories) sold on a particular day, say Dairy, Frozen Foods, Chocolates etc.In this report there is a date prompt showing the date of sale.
    Now there are certain items that are distributed within these categories, like dairy includes milk, cheese, butter etc.
    Hence, my navigation should be like when I click on a particular item category, the control should move on to the report which has all items under that particular category and the prompt for this report should show the same date as passed in the previous report.
    But sometimes what happens is that on clicking the navigation from first report to the second one, the date is not persisting in the prompt. I say sometimes because at times the navigation does work correctly. This is a bug of Obiee or something which is giving unexpected results.
    Kindly help with your suggestions.
    Thanks
    Ankita

    Ankita,
    This is not a bug in OBIEE...I'm sure something is missing. If this is working for some cases and not working for some other case then you will need to find the root cause. Try in bits and pieces...Step by Step with some dates (unit testing). Ideally this shud work properly.
    For an instance try with OBIEE drilldown feature and not with navigation with a single sale date and observe the behavior.
    Hope its clear...

  • Problem while installing Usage Tracking in OBIEE 10g

    Hi all,
    I am installing usage tracking in OBIEE for that created a database called usertracking using the sample tables provided in OBIEE 10g. everything is fine, but while configuring the NQSConfig.INI (like, PHYSICAL_TABLE_NAME   = "usertracking"."dbo"."S_NQ_ACCT" ; where usertracking is the database ) file I am getting the error called : Error 1067 : The process terminated unexpectedly.
    Please help me by your precious suggestions.
    Thanking you,

    Hi,
    Just keep it only below
    PHYSICAL_TABLE_NAME = "usertracking"."dbo"."S_NQ_ACCT" ;
    for example oracle default usage tracking setting in NQSconfig.ini file
    PHYSICAL_TABLE_NAME = "OBI Usage Tracking"."Catalog"."dbo"."S_NQ_ACCT";
    CONNECTION_POOL = "OBI Usage Tracking"."Usage Tracking Writer Connection Pool" ;

  • OBIEE 10G SSO Issue

    HI
    We have configured OBIEE 10g on IIS (ver-6) server. We have a business requirement where we need to integrate OBIEE with another ASP.NET application. So, user should log in once and to view OBIEE reports he should not log in again.
    Now we have checked GO URL option given in Chapter 11 of Oracle® Business Intelligence Presentation Services Administration Guide. But problem is our company policy does not allow us to pass Password in HTTP URL. So we cannot use that solution.
    We are trying to use SSO and referred to Chapter 8 of Deployment Guide. We followed all the steps give in that chapter
    Also, we modified isapiconfig.xml and entered <CredentialStore> paramaters in it.
    But when we Go to Analytics URL (for remote machine) Login screen show "Not Logged In" message.
    currently we are using REMOTE_USER method as it is given in documention.
    So we did everything by the book. Now my question is:
    1) We do not have any SSO server/Product, is there is any way we can integrate OBIEE application to other ASP.Net application on another IIS SERVER? There was a suggestion that if we pass remoter_user parameter in HTTP header, is it possible to work this way.
    2) Is it possible that if we host both the ASP.NET and OBIEE 10g on SAME IIS server there is way to integrate them using SSO without any SSO server again by passing remote_user HTTP header
    3) What options do we have to integrate ASP.NET application and OBIEE without using SSO server itself and without using GO url method as we cannot pass password in header. Will Cookie Enabling Method can work in this scenerio.
    4) Is there is way that OBIEE directly take windows ID without SSO server, I know question might sound stupid as in prerequisite i read that we need “SSO system of Choice” but we need to be absolutely sure about our option and possibilities.
    we also reffered to following thread:
    10g - how to configure sso with iis-
    But, this one seems to be unresolved So kindly help

    Hi Praveen,
    Thanks for your response. I was doing a bit of R&D on SOAP API, tell me if i am wrong.
    In case we use SOAP API to Authenticate then we will get Response in terms of XML and we have to write our own code to render it in tables or charts.
    We dont want that we just want to automate the Authentication part and want to use OBIEE use Interactive Dashboards. Kindly suggest if I am wrong and if we just write a piece of Code to get the Authentication done and it will not affect the further use of OBIEE.

  • Cascaded Prompts in OBIEE 10g

    Hello friends,
    Can some help me to understand how to implement cascaded prompts in OBIEE 10g? My situation is:
    I have three Prompts P1,P2 and P3
    P1: Values are comming from a table
    P2: Shows the value from a Stored Procedure, such that one stored procedure takes input parameter from P1
    P3: Shows the value from a stored procedure , such that one stored procedure takes input parameter from P2
    After selecting value from P3 , I will run the report. So here P2 is based on P1 , P3 is based on P2, ie cascaded.
    I have tried this by checking the box Constrain for P2 and P3 (red some where that if we make a prompt with checked the Constrain box then its value depends on the previous prompt)
    But for me this is not working even if check the Constrain box.
    Can I some one help me to do this.
    Thanks,
    Mithun

    Hi Krish,
    Value of P1 Im passing to a stored procedure (say SP1) to populate P2, same way values in the P2 (which is the result from SP1) I'm passing to SP2 which in turn gives the values in P3.
    I'm using the SP1 and SP2 in the Physical layer as
    EXEC SP_NAME @parameter1 = 'VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.ID)'
    Here ID is the session variable I have created.
    And in the Dashboard, I have created the prompt P1 (on a field which is from a table), then the value is passed to the variable ID by choosing the 'Request Variable' option in the Set Variable drop down.
    Same way I did for other SP by passing the value from P2..
    Here for P2 and P3 I have checked the box for constrain so that value of P2 is depended on P1 and value of P3 is depended on P2.
    But my problem is this method of cascading is not working.. that is P2 value is not changing based on the value I'm selecting in P1 ans same way for P3...
    Hope my issue is clear to you..
    Thanks,
    Mithun

  • OBIEE 10g Getting wrong results when adding calculated columns to a report

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing a possible misbehaviour with OBIEE 10g (10.1.3.4.1).
    I have a simple report with a table. Columns are simply selected from dimensions and facts. In this case the generated query is:
    WITH

    If I delete the filter in SAWITH1 query above ( D1.c13 = 1 ) results are correct.
    Anyone experiencing the same problem? The strange thing is that I have a number of similar reports (on other subject areas) and everyting is working fine.
    Please also note that I don't want to add this kind of calculated items in the RPD (they can be simple calculations that are made on-the-fly).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks a lot and regards,
    Cristina

    I have the same issue, everything OBIEE server generate query using ROW_NUMBER() over () function, it will hardcode Dx.cx = 1, this will cause issue if you have rows of the same distinct value, thus causing missing rows and the final results will be wrong.
    I have open a SR with Oracle Support since March 2011, but till today, they have not resolve the issue yet.
    Hope they solve the issue soon.

    Hi,
    The presentation variable is being passed correctly, but still the date value is not persisiting.
    I have two prompts, both having presentation variables passed into them;One of the prompt value is being persisted but the other one(here date) is not.
    I am not able to justify this issue as the problem is very vague. I dont see any reason for this issue to come up.
    Anyways I am still trying to figure out the problem.

    Hi all,
    While updating data in DB using obiee 10g i am getting an error system is not able to read the template while updating.

    Hi,
    Insert query is not mandatory.
    But you need to include a space between <insert> </insert>. So that s how it works. Check the xml with space in between the insert tag and it will work fine.
    This will resolve your problem. Please award if its helpful/useful to you.

  • OBIEE 10g How ADD new report and use outer join

    Hi,
    I have to add a new report that use a new view...(just created in db)
    I'm new in OBIEE.. can you explain how can i do it?
    Actually:
    1. I opened administrator tool and import new view (and created an alias) in physical
    2. I built a logical table in BMM
    3. I built a new presentation table in presentation
    problem: the table in BMM have yellow icon like a fact table.. why??
    can you explain me what i have to do?
    thank you
    Edited by: 1006028 on 15-mag-2013 2.54

    By default OBIEE 10g considers a table as fact table that is dragged from physical to BMM layer. That's why you see the yellow color icon.
    If it is a dimension table, you will have to join this table with a fact table in BMM layer. After this the yellow color icon will go away.
    Pls mark correct/helpful.

  • Grid lines appear in bold format in Graphs - OBIEE 10g

    Dear Experts,
    I am facing an issue with the grid lines in the graphs in reports.
    All the graphs in reports(webcat) are appearing with 'bold GRID lines' instead of normal grid lines which in turn is affecting the look and feel of the graphs in the webcat. Is there any way to eliminate this by setting any parameter in XML files?
    I am using OBIEE 10g version. Kindly let me know your inputs so as to eliminate this bold grid lines in all the graphs.
    Thanks,

  • OBIEE 10g: BI Publisher page not showing properly

    Hello all,
    I have installed OBIEE 10g on a VM with operating system: XP, service pack 3.
    Analytics and Admin tool (I was able to create a new repository) are showing properly but when i try to login to the BI Publisher I just see two folder available "Shared folders"
    and "My Folders" and all the other functionalities are missing. Also in the Preferences tab I just see "General Preferences"
    and nothing else. I have logged in as an Administrator user but i think the problem is that this user doesn't actually have admin rights when it comes to BI Publisher module.
    I tried to give some more permissions through Analytics>Settings>Manage Privilleges but there was no progress.
    Can you please give me some guidance on that issue?
    Thanks in advance,

    I can see the BIP Menu in Word,
    but the sub menus are : menu2007.logon, menu2007.load_xml_dat ... and of course are not working !
    What is wrong ?

  • Error  in reports after upgrade from OBIEE 10g to 11g :  [nQSError: 14025]

    Hi All, We upgraded RPD and web catalog from OBIEE 10g to 11.1.1.5. I see the following error while running few reports.
    Error: State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A
    general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS.
    [nQSError: 14025] No fact table exists at the requested level of detail:
    When I add an user under BIAdministrator Application role and login, all the reports work correctly.
    I verified Oracle BUG fix (11850704) document and tried to make changes as suggested.
    Please suggest me if this issue is related to 10g to 11g RPD upgrade or are we missing any privileges?
    Also should I add every user to BIAdministrator role to avoid this issue?
    Thanks in Advance
