Building a subject area

Hi Experts,
I am pretty new to OBI tool. I would be thankful to the experts for
helping me to resolve below issue:
We had created a .rpd file in offline mode using the sql server2000. when i run check global consistency then it shows an warning message "[39032] The user Administrator belong to the 'Administrator' Group and has an empty password." And that .rpd file is not reflecting in the subject area of Answers.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks & regards,

Error when building a report from 2 different subject areas

Hello Experts,
I am using obiee 11.1.1.5.
I have 5 dimension D1,D2,D3,D4,D5 connected to fact1 and 4 dimension connected to fact2 such as D1,D2,D6,D7.
where D1,D2 is common to both the facts.
Fact1 Is in subject area 1 and Fact2 is in subject area2.
I need to create a report by adding columns of subject area 1 and 2 with columns from all the dimensions D1,D2....D7.
As of now i am getting error stating "No fact table exists at the requested level of detail " when i try to add columns from 2 different subject areas.
Can anyone help me in solving the above problem.
Is there any prerequisite to be taken care when building a report from 2 different subject areas.
Regards,
NN

Hello Nagireddy,
So kind of you, for your quick reply
I was able to solve the error by doing below steps in additional what you have specified
-->For the fact table LTSs, set the logical level in the Content tab to the dimension's lowest level for each conforming dimension (leave the non-conforming dimensions level blank).
Now I have another requirement i,e
I need to have non measure columns such as Date into the newly created fact in BMM layer.
I tried doing the steps which I followed for measure column, but it is throwing the same error which I get earlier.
Below is the error

2. Another way would be to create a dashboard report that would show both

How to build a report in Oracle CRM On Demand using the Shared Activities subject area to show only 5 recent activities?

I’m trying to use the Rank function in a report and I’m having issues getting it to work. I’m using the Shared Activities subject area and would like to rank activities by Contact. Since there are multiple activity association to the users (attendees), I’m not getting the correct ranking order. Here is what I tried so far…
RANK(Activity."Task Due Date" By Contact."Contact ID")
RANK(Activity."Task Due Date" By Contact."Contact ID", Activity."Activity ID")
RANK(Activity."Task Due Date" By Contact."Contact ID", Employee."Employee ID")
I don’t mind getting the same values for the same dates but the increment should be in sequence. What I’m getting is 1,1,3,3,5,6,6… I want to show only 5 recent activities and so need the sequence of 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4… If not date, what else is there to make it unique? I tried to rank it by Contact Id, Activity Id, Emp Id, etc. Nothing works!
I have tried other functions like RCOUNT, TopN, BottomN, ect. with no luck.

Hi Max
Our requirement is to see all the activities for a server in a month ONLY IF there are activities on DIFFERENT dates. So using my example, server2 has activties on 7/1 and 7/14. Then we want to see all the activities for server2 in that month. Server3 has two activities but both activities are on the same date. So we don't want to see server3.
Counting by server will not work because that will include server3 in my example.
What I really want is to be able to count unique occurrences of dates per server in a month. And if this count is > 1, then this server will be in the report.
I used a pivot table to count the unique occurrences of dates by server by month. So using my example, I have this result:
Server1-July: 1
Server2-July: 2
Server3-July 1
What I really want (conceptually) is to be able to filter this pivot table by the matrix column which is the count. I just couldn't figure out how to do that :). Then I thought I could use this report (with pivot table result) as a filter into another report.
Hope you have some idea....:)
Thanks

How to create Analysis from two different subject areas with diff models

Hello,
I have problem with create analysis from two different areas with two different models (Model Star and Snowflakes) build in BI Admin tools.
First Model A = Subject Area A have one fact tables (with measures) and three dimensions tables (Model Star)
Second Model B = Subject Area B have one fact table (no measures) and five dimensions tables (Model Snowflakes).
I'm looking solutions how I can give good results. In this case I can't use UNION, INTERSECT etc., because this models haven't the same number column and data type?
whether it is possible to do in OBIEE?
Please help me
Kind regard

Hi
One thing to understand is that if your are imagining having two Subject Areas (SAs) displayed and then dragging columns from each into your Request without any preparation, then no, that can't be done. You would need to do a join in the BMM layer and expose the column from the second Subject Area in the presentation layer.
But if you indeed interested in UNION (or intersect) queries, then do this:
Build your first query in the first SA in the usual manner. Note the number of columns and the data types of each column.
Now at the bottom of the Criteria workspace, there is a button called "Combine with similar request." Click it.
Select your second SA. You will note that the outlines of the columns in your first query appear. This is to remind you that the number of columns in this second query must be the same as in the first. It also shows the data type of each column for the same reason.
Once you select your columns and your filters, click on result. (Oh, you will also need to decide what kind of combination you want -- click on the dropdown.) The result will be a new Request that has data from both SAs in the query and combined in the manner you select (union, intersect, etc.)
That should give you a start.

How to limit data for a dimension in any subject area?

Hi folks,
I do have a little problem, maybe you can help me:
I have a large subject area for all my countries and product i sell there.
now i want to have special subject areas for certain countries.
that for i ducplucated my large subject area, went to the identity manager and there I set special Rights für the users: I chose my fact measure and put a data filter for it on the dimension country.countryname = Germany.
I hope you can fallow me until here. ;-)
Now I can build a query in answers and it works, within this subject area I only get data for Germany.
BUT: when I'm on the criteria tab and try to create a filter on my countryname (from the dimension) it shows me all the countries I have.
I think for the end users this is a litte bit confusing.
So how do I limit the dimension in this subject area to a particular value?
I would be very happy for help, cause then I could finish my development for today ;-)
Kind regards,
Sven

Try this; @BMM Fact source properties->Content tab->WHERE clause section add the dimension country.countryname = 'Germany'.
Also set the implicit fact on the subject area.
Let us know how it works

Creating subject area in OBIEE 11.1.1

Hi,
Could anybody tell me which tools I have to use in order to create a subject area for using it in the OBIEE 11.1.1 ?
I have searched a little bit through the Internet & Oracle documentations and it looks like I could use Oracle Essbase, Oracle Datawarehouse Builder and Datawarehouse Admin Console (using the Informatica PowerCenter Server) ... it looks very difficult to me ...
Thanks.

I think my problem would be fixed if I can get Oracle Business Intelligence Administration Tool running.
Could you tell me from where I could download Oracle Business Intelligence Administration Tool ? I didn't find it for OBIEE 11.1.1 :(
Thanks.

Product and Opportunity-Product Subject Areas

Hi,
Can someone please tell the difference between these two subject areas in CRM OnDemand Reporting-
1) Product
2) Opportunity-Product
And under what circumstances we should use either of them?
Thank you.

Product: you do get the dimensions and facts for the Product object... so you'd build a report with Product information
Opportunity-Product: you do get dimensions and facts for the Products related to an opportunity... so you'd build a report with Opportunity and Product information

Google Map Issue in OBIEE - Subject area not getting associated

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to integrate Google map and OBIEE via mapviewer. We have done the following already -
1. Loaded World Sample data from Navteq.
2. Configured mapviewer source and added Google map as a tile layer with the API KEY.
3. Imported one layer (e.g. M_STATES_ABRV) in OBIEE and linked it with BI subject area (tried this step with importing other layers as well)
4. Added background map.
Now , in this step when we add the layer in the map, we select M_STATES_ABRV and change zoom levels. But Once we come back to main screen after Clicking OK, we see the background map is not associated with the subject area. Hence any map view report creation with this subject area fails.
We have the tried the same theme with Oracle Maps (internal type like WORLD MAP or DEMO MAP), it works fine. only Google Map gives this issue.
This was not expected. Please suggest what we missed. We tried with cache clear, tile delete and recreation, service restart almost everything .
We looked into other threads in this community, different oracle support documents - Doc ID 1485088.1,Doc ID 1346805.1 etc and in different internet blogs - where it's easy as child's play, but we are still out of luck.
OBIEE version - 11.1.1.7.140527
Environment- windows server 2008 R2
Please suggest.
Regards,
Krish

I have found the solution: You need to *select* zoom levels for the BI Layer. When a BI Layer is added to a background map, by default no zoom layers are selected. Once a zoom level is selected, the BI Layer will save.

Yes, i can see datatype and number of columns is same in both queries.
i have challanges to copy message but Error message seems to general. Error says (near to FROM) and I checked there are three FROM in query and all seems to be ok
Query is something like as below
select SA1.col1 saw_0,
SA1.col2 saw_1,
SA2.col1 saw_2,
SA2.col2 saw_3,
FROM
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area1") SA1
FULL OUTER JOIN
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area2") SA2
ON SA1.col1 = SA2.col1
I can't see any issue in the query...please comment.

Report using colmns from 2 subject areas

Hi,
I have to buld a report as below
Product      ForecastRevenue(A)       ActualRevenue(B)       Variance
A                200                                      100                           100
B                200                                      200                            0
ForecastRevenue(A) comes from 1 subject area and ActualRevenue(B) comes from another subject area. Using these 2 columns from different subject area I have to create
a calculated column variance which is the difference of two columns. How can I create this report. Any idea?

can be done in two ways;
1. Using Union report
Create a union report with two request.
Request1 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression     "product.name"     "Fact.Revenue"         0
Request2 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression      "product.name"    0                             "Fact.ACTUAL_Revenue"
In the result tab create a pivote report and set the aggregation of fact column as sum.
Add a calculated column and write the expression as
Farecast_Revenue - Actual_Revenue
You are done.
2. Use the advance tab in the report and write a custom SQL to join these two subject area.
eg.
select product, A.forecast_reveneu, B.Forecast_Reveneue, A.forecast_reveneu-B.Forecast_Reveneue
from SA1 A join SA2 B on (A.product=B.PRODUCT)
You are done.
Best of Luck,
Kashi
