BO 4.0 - no values in dashboard

Hi,
I created a QaaWS on a universe connected to a BW system. Then I defined in dashboard designer the QaaWS in data manager as source. When I create a dashboard with a circular chart I can't see the values of the keyfigures. I only see the values of the characteristics. What confusing me - when I also include a spreadsheet I can see the values of the keyfigures and - of course - the values of the characteristics.
We are on BO 4.0 and I'm using windows 7.
Any ideas.
Cheers
JS

Hi Jürgen,
this seems to be the same problem as I posted in:
As a first (and bad) workaround you could try to seperate the digits  by excel function =MID(A1;LENGTH(A1)-5;3).
For example: 3.123,00 to 3 and 123
These digits are able to be shown in a chart.
PS: Good to see I'm not the only person with this issue
Regards,
Eric

  • Constraining Values in Dashboard Prompts

    Hi,
    I have a question about constraining values in dashboard prompts. Do all fields need to come from the same table as I am finding constraining values is not working where I am selecting some values from different tables:
    For example
    Start Date - Fact Table
    End Date - Fact Table
    Salesperson - Org Dim
    Market - Org Dim
    Introducer - Org Dim
    Customer - Org Dim
    I am trying to constrain values beginning from Salesperson and so on but this does not work.
    Is this the expected behaviour? should all values be retrieved from the same table in order for this to work?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Below is the filter I am applying in the report:
    "Agreement Fact"."Prop Creation Date" >= Evaluate('to_date(%1,%2)','@{startdate}','YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')
    and "Agreement Fact"."Prop Creation Date2" <= Evaluate('to_date(%1,%2)','@{enddate}','YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')
    and Organisation.Market = '@{market}'
    and Organisation."Sales Person Name" = '@{salesperson}'
    and Organisation."Introducer Name" = '@{introducer}'
    and Organisation."Customer Name" = '@{customer}'
    I have selected constrain in the report from salesperson onwards but instead when I run the dashboard report the values beginning with salesperson do not show.
    I definitely know that data exists for the date parameters(startdate and enddate) and market parameter. I have run a report in answers using the same parameters as in dashboard and do see data.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

  • Passing Values to Dashboard Prompt

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a summary Dashboard page with summary report and prompt build on Summary table , and i have a detail dashboard page contains Detail report and prompt same as Summary but these prompts are from Dimension tables and report from fact and Dimension.
    The requirement is Once i click some value in Summary dashboard it has to pass the values to Detail dashboard ( Means Passing the values to Dashboard prompt) and show the result in detail.
    As i cant use the OBIEE navigation logic to pass the values as prompts columns are not from same table. So i thought to use the GO URL this also i cant use as i am using Pivot table in Summary report. I thought to use Summary prompt in the detail Dashboard and create a dummy reports based on the prompt and resultant value pass to the Detail reports. I am able get the values but i am not getting proper answer. I dont no why .
    Is i am doing correct ? i know its not elegant way. If some one give me tip or direction that will be great help.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    If you are attempting to pass a value from one table1.column1 to another table2.column2 where the two do not match then you will need to use a presentation variable to hold the value. You can populate the variable using a hidden dashboard prompt that has the table1.table2 and read the value into a variable. You can then use this variable to filter the table2.column2

  • How to pass values to dashboard prompts from external applications

    Any idea is well appreciated.
    How can I pass values of dashboard prompts from external applications to the dashboard prompts so that the dashboard is prefiltered based on values sent by external applications.
    Thanks in Advance!
    Kris

    Kris,
    i am able to change the session variable and able to call the dashboard from external app, but i identified prompt value not changing. but Finally i am able to found a workaround for you.
    Use the following URL and it explained here
    http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&nquser=Administrator&nqpassword=Administrator&PortalPath=/shared/abcd/_portal/dash1&Options=rmf&DSN=madan
    PortalPath is your dashboard location. /shared/abcd is folder where i saved dashboards. dash1 is my dashboard name.
    internally this dashboard includes many reports that uses the session variable. after doing above this i am able to update the session variable to the value i have given in URL, DSN=value.
    You may observer here that calls the dashboard and passes the value but its not updating the prompt value. so workaround for this is edit your prompt,
    change the Default to - SQL Results and place the sql
    SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN Markets.Region ELSE VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.DSN) END saw_0 FROM Paint
    again here Market.Region is column from presentation layer and Paint is subject area. After doing this step, your prompt always shows value in the session varible as default.
    Now include reports and dashboard prompt in the dashboard and run this url from external applicaitons.
    http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&nquser=Administrator&nqpassword=Administrator&PortalPath=/shared/abcd/_portal/dash1&Options=rmf&DSN=madan
    it worked for me and blog this soon. if it works for you mark the question as answered and mark my replies as correct.
    thanks

  • Problem to transfer Variable value to Dashboard A to Dashboard B

    Hi,buddies:
         I have a scenario that I have to jump from Total Dashboard(we call it A) to Detail Dashboard(we call it B),I work with Xcelsius directly connect to BW through SAP NetWeaver BW connection ,I can transfer Variable values to B through URL with command like this:
         http://hqbd6.sinopec.com:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?DASHBOARD=R2JN_DASHTESTB
    &BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_VARIABLES_STATE
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE=G1CALMONTH_DZ_MIS
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE_TYPE=VARIABLE_INPUT_STRING
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE_TYPE-VARIABLE_INPUT_STRING=2011.07
    But at this condition,The variables of Dashboard B are not bound to any cell because they will be set at run time with values passed in the URL.
    My question is can I get the Variable value from the URL in the Xcelsius Designer and put it into a specified cell and link this cell with the query,so that even jump to Dashboard B I can still change the variable values.

    Let me explain the issue in detail.
    In Query Designer, both the year and  month variables are defined by user exit function to read current year and month and can be modified  during the query runtime.
    In WAD, Query1 is  used  to be a table with a table interface to hyperlink a chart which is defined by Query2 with the same variable value of Query1.
    During the runtime of template, if I change the variable value of Query1 , I want the variable of Query2 to be changed automatically with the same new value.
    So in the table interface of Query1 , I write the ABAP code in "SE24" and related source code to the variable is following:
    concatenate
    'function fire_urlJGSP_Col(filter) {'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    'chart_url="' url '" + "&CMD=LDOC'
    '&TEMPLATE_ID=GCCHART_9' "WEB ID of the work book
    '&PAGEID=Graphics'       "Name of the view
    '&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME=Z2MYEAR&VAR_VALUE_EXT=" + filter'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    'openWindow(chart_url,"chart_window","dependent=yes","600",'
    '"450","true")'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    into l_coding.
    In this way , I can only transfer the year variable value from Query1 to Query2 and not two variables .
    So , how  shall I do to transer the two variable value in the same?

  • How to get value in dashboard prompt from database

    Hi All,
    I am using dashboard prompt (Year Prompt) to filter reports on year basis.
    fact table stores the hit date on a particular site linked with date dimension table .
    I have Datas in fact table say from year 2005 to 2009 .In dashboard Prompt it is showing me all the years 1990 to 2021(that are in date dimension).
    I hard coded the value of years in prompt now it only showing me years 2005 to 2009.
    My question is that is their any way that prompt automatically take values from database, those years which are stored in fact table ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi...
    Try writing query for dashboard prompt to get desired values..
    *select distinct year(FactTable.HitDate) from SubjectAreaName*
    To work this.. you should have HitDate column in presentation layer. (You can drag this column from fact in BMM and drop in any dimensions of presentation Layer, and name it as HitDate (Fact).. some thing like this...

  • Default value in dashboard prompt

    Hi,

    Hi RR,
    Edit the Prompt.
    Under Default Selection select SQL Result and place the following query:
    SELECT concat(upper(CAST (MONTHname( TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1, CURRENT_DATE)) AS CHAR(3))),concat('-',cast( YEAR( TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1, CURRENT_DATE)) as char)))

  • Two values in Dashboard prompt

    Hi,
    How do i display two values in the dashboard prompt. In order to make the prompt more discriptive and easy to understand for the user i am trying to display both the processing period and the week number in the prompt but i want to pass only the the processing period to the reports. Can i do it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    create a new logical column with concatenated values of date & week number and use this in prompts display. In RPD, keep processing date as a key column for the new column.
    In analysis, simply put a filter based on the key column as OBIEE will pass processing date only to the report.
    Let me know if you have any doubts.
    cheers.. Patrick.

  • Problem showing constrained values in dashboard prompt using a specific val

    Hi all,
    I'm using a dashboard prompt showing several fields ie Company, Business Area, Dept. They are set as the following:
    Drop Down List Box
    Show > All Choices, Constrained
    Default > Specific Value
    The requests work fine with these prompts. The problem is if I go to Dept drop down, all I see are '(All Choices)' and the default dept I established defining the prompt. There are other depts for the same Business Area that I want to see, not just the default value.
    What did I do wrong?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi ,
    may be the problem with company also ,you enabled the constrained to company as well i guess..
    Just check with this order Business Area,Dept , Company , .. enable the constraint for company and Dept and test the prompt by selecting the business area , are you able to see the company and dept correctly or not.
    Just a testing method ...helpful for you.
    Thanks,

    SELECT TRUNC(add_months(sysdate, -1), 'MM') FROM dual;
    SELECT TRUNC(last_day(add_months(sysdate, -1))) from dual;
    But when I try to use the dashboard prompt the result is:

    SQL Issued: SELECT TRUNC(add_months(sysdate,-1),'MM') FROM dual
    When I try to use only select sysdate from dual; the result is:

  • How to set the default value in dashboard prompt?

    Hi there,
    In my Dashboard prompt I'm getting values like:
    Mar 2010
    Apr 2010
    May 2010
    Jun 2010
    How to set the default value to the current month (Jun 2010). I don't want to use "specific value". I want to use the "SQL Result" for populating the default value.
    Appreciate your help

    hi,
    you can create a Repository variable current_month with the expression as
    select to_char(trunc(sysdate),'Mon')from dual
    and use this in the prompt "Default to" Server variable and use this repository variable.
    hope this helps.

  • Can I pass ID of the table instaed of value in dashboard prompts?

    HI,
    Say, I have a table QUESTION which contains 2 columns: ID, DESCRIPTION.
    sample data:
    ID DESCRIPTION
    1 TEST
    2 TEST1
    3 TEST11
    4 TEST
    Herer the DESCRIPTION is stored in the order they appear in a portal application
    Please note that the value of ID 1 & 4 are lexically same
    I now make DESCRIPTION column sorted on ID column in LOGICAL layer and use DESCRIPTION in my dashboard prompt, it will list :
    TEST
    TEST1
    TEST11
    TEST
    but once I select any of the TEST value the results will be shown against both the TEST value, what I want is that if I choose the first TEST value I get the reults against it and when I choose the fourth TEST value I get the results against it only.
    IS this feasible ? Can we pass ID instead of DESCRIPTION as filter ?
    Any other ideas are welcome.
    thanks

  • Improper display of dropdown field values in dashboard

    Hi all,
    We are working on cprxrpm v4.5.
    We are having certain custom fields which are dropdowns in RPM. These fields are not present in cprojects and are used only in RPM. These are defined by domains having a value list and description.
    In Item overview tab, these are displayed correctly ( description for the value list is displayed ).
    However, in item Dashboard, we are having an issue as we are getting the value list and not the description.
    Has anyone else come across this problem?
    Please give suggestions on how to rectify this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,

    Yes, you can do this by specifying this parameter in your web item.
    <param name="ONLY_VALUES" value="X"/>
    This will return all the objects as part of a form so you need to write your own html form around this.
    To sort this within javascript, the easiest thing to do is convert this list of form values to an array, sort this array, and then re-render the form values. There's an example online of doing this with a table here:
    http://javascript.internet.com/forms/sort-data-table.html
    You could do this with for a form in a similar manner.
