Building Hierarchies

Hi
We are testing Project Analytics. Oracle Projects have Organization Hierarchy, which can be used to see project information in a hierarchial structure. Using organization hierarchy we can drill down to the lower organizaiton to see that details and roll up to see higher level data.
OBIA says that it is possible to build hierarchy. How do i bring the Organizaiton Hoerarchy that it already in Oracle and use it in Project Analytics.
Thanks

Is Import to DRM by action script the only way to build hierarchies?

Hi,
If I am getting by source file as a big generation wise excel format and even properties in excel sheet with large number of custom property field values.
Is making a Import action script out of the excel to load to DRM is the only way, or do we hav any other option to load these hierechies to DRM from excel without going fpr manual efforts in making scripts one by one for large no of dimensions.

hi, the import functionality can build hierarchies. It has a draw back of only building NEW hierarchies. So if your source master hierarchy is external to DRM, action script or API is best way, if it is to be automated. If this is only be imported/updated once a month the import can be used to create the "new" version. You can use then blend update your old version.

Are we able to build hierarchies for time characterstics

Are we able to build hierarchies for time characterstics?If possible in what scenarios?

hi chandra
go to transaction rsd1 and tick the 'with hierarchies' box, then you should be able to create a hierarchy against the characteristic in rsh1.

Forms Builder-hierarchical tree(expanding and collapsing nodes)

hi friends,
can anyone help me with populating my hierarchical tree form by using codes for collapsing and expanding?
for instance when_button_pressed:
tree_control.expand_all(tree_control.v_item_name); //this is for expanding all the nodes in the tree structure
well, i have an sql statement in my record group which in turn defines the structure of the hierarchical tree.
Is it possible to just use the codes 'tree_control.expand_all(tree_control.v_item_name);' like that in the when-button-pressed trigger?
Thanks for any help :)

Hierarchical query - Stop at specific leaf nodes - How to in Oracle 9i ?

Table H -- Master table to build Hierarchical tree
C -- Child
P -- Parent
Table RN -- Table defining Root Nodes
N -- Node
Table LN -- Table defining Leaf Nodes
N -- Node
The following Query can generate trees starting with the nodes specified in the Table:RN
SELECT LEVEL L, C, P, SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(C,'/') SCBP
FROM H
START WITH C IN ( SELECT N FROM RN )
CONNECT BY PRIOR C = P
How do I limit the tree to the nodes specified in the LN table ?
"CONNECT BY" does not support "IN" clause
i.e
CONNECT BY PRIOR C = P AND P NOT IN (SELECT N FROM LN)
Say we have 2 trees
1-2-3-4-5
A-B-C-D-E
RN : 2,B
LN : 5,D
Result:
2,3,4 (5 is excluded)
B,C (D is excluded)
Any help is appreciated...

What about:
select level l, c, p, sys_connect_by_path(c,'/') scbp
from (select * from h
where c not in (select n from ln)) -- filter via an inline view
start with c in ( select n from rn )
connect by prior c = p;

AdvancedDataGrid - create Array (cfquery) with children for hierarchical data set

I'm trying to create an AdvancedDataGrid with a hierarchical
data set as shown below. The problem that I am having is how to
call the data from a ColdFusion remote call and not an
ArrayCollection inside of the Flex app (as below). I'm guessing
that the problem is with the CFC that I've created which builds an
array with children. I assume that the structure of the children is
the issue. Any thoughts?

I had similar problems attempting to create an Array of
Arrays in a CFC, so I created two differents scripts - one in CF
and one in Flex - to build Hierarchical Data from a query result.
The script in CF builds an Hierarchical XML document which is then
easily accepted as HIerarchical Data in Flex. The script in Flex
loops over the query Object that is returned as an Array
Collection. It took me so long to create the XML script, and I now
regret it, since it is not easy to maintain and keep dynamic.
However, it only took me a short while to build this ActionScript
logic, which I quite like now (though it is not [
yet ] dynamic, and currently only handles two levels of
Hierarchy):
(this is the main part of my WebService result handler)....
// Create a new Array Collection to store the Hierarchical
Data from the WebService Result
var categories:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
// Create an Object variable to store the parent-level
objects
var category:Object;
// Create an Object variable to store the child-level
objects
var subCategory:Object;
// Loop through each Object in the WebService Result
for each (var object:Object in results)
// Create a new Array Collection as a copy of the Array
Collection of Hierarchical Data
var thisCategory:ArrayCollection = new
ArrayCollection(categories.toArray());
// Create a new instance of the Filter Function Class
var filterFunction:FilterFunction = new FilterFunction();
// Create Filter on the Array Collection to return only
those records with the specified Category Name
thisCategory.filterFunction =
filterFunction.NameValueFilter("NAMETXT", object["CATNAMETXT"]);
// Refresh the Array Collection to apply the Filter
thisCategory.refresh();
// If the Array Collection has records, the Category Name
exists, so use the one Object in the Collection to add Children to
if (thisCategory.length)
category = thisCategory.getItemAt(0);
// If the Array Collection has no records, the Category Name
does not exist, so create a new Object
else
// Create a new parent-level Object
category = new Object();
// Create and set the Name property of the parent-level
Object
category["NAMETXT"] = object["CATNAMETXT"];
// Create a Children property as a new Array
category["children"] = new Array();
// Add the parent-level Object to the Array Collection
categories.addItem(category);
// Create a new child-level Object as a copy of the Object
in the WebService Result
subCategory = object;
// Create and set the Name property of the child-level
Object
subCategory["NAMETXT"] = object["SUBCATNAMETXT"];
// Add the child-level Object to the Array of Children on
the parent-level Object
category["children"].push(subCategory);
// Convert the Array Collection to a Hierarchical Data
Object and use it as the Data Provider for the Advanced Data Grid
advancedDataGrid.dataProvider = new

Hierarchies on Segments

Do you have to use FSG's to build hierarchies over the segments..
Example Segment 1 = Business... I need a multi level hierarchy to group business'

Perhaps you are refering to the account group .csv file that is used ot decide how to group the chart of accounts. However, that does not include the multi-level hierarchy which is stored in
W_HIERARCHY_D.
Have you tried incoreporating the Essbase data in form of flattended hierarchy in W_HIERARCHY_D and use that for roll up of balances?
Thanks

7.0 Awesome, but...

I love the new iPhoto, I love evens, I love the web gallery, I love it all; however, there are just a few little things that could make it so much better
I think we should start a discussion here of what realistic things we'd like to see be a part of the iPhoto.
My thoughts:
You should be able to build hierarchies into events and albums. i suppose the easiest way to think of this would be to have sub-events within events, and have events within albums. This way you can set up main categories for your events. You could view all events at once, turn on or off certain events, or simply view one category of events.
For albums, it would be nice if you could build subgroups as well. As a photographer I have a portfolio album; however, I would like to subdivide the portfolio by the various models I have worked with, or by different themes. Then i could go into each subgroup and hide/unhide the photos i want to represent this subgroup within the main group.
now perhaps these features already exist, and I just have not found out how to use them. That would be cool. Yet if they don't, I think these features are a no-brainer, and I can't imagine it being the hardest thing to program.
let's hear what everyone else's thoughts are.

Think of events as a cronological file of all of your photos. You now can build the structures you want by using albums and folders adding "virtual" photos to the albums and organizing them into folders.
THis way you have only one (or two if you modify the photo) physical copies of the photo and can put virtual copies anywhere and as many places as you want
So you could have a folder for portraits with one album in it for each model AND one album for blonds, one for redheads AND one for Asains and one for Latinos -- as much sub organization as you want and are willing to take time to build -- all vitrual pointin gback to the same phyusical photo.
Then you can add Keywords to give you yet another way to find subsets of your photos.
Play with it - I think what you want is there in albums and folders -- just remember that events are always the physical storage place for your photos and what you do to the photos in the event will affect ALL virtual copies of it in all albums in all folders

Fact Table with multi billion records.

Hi ---> Is it advisable to build hierarchies around 3 billion record table Fact table and still growing in OBIEE..I know we can use oracle OLAP Tool and DB and other additional infrastructure will do it. But tryiing to look for a better way with the existing tools and hardware... Please let know the possibilities using obiee..yes I am aware of aggregate tables, materialized views etc.., it takes time to implement and view which is most optimal...
Edited by: user007009 on Apr 11, 2013 5:49 PM

Is it advisable to build hierarchies around 3 billion record table Fact tableIs it warehouse table or OLTP table treating as fact table? if it is ware house table then in BI we create hierarchy on dimension table but not on fact! or else you are using a fact table as both fact and dim then it can be but you have to mention as dim instead of fact.
I dont think there is a limitation, its all how you see the data. I dont think you create a report to show 1 or 2Billion records at once.
If you didnt convince try to check with Oracle with SR.
If helps mark
Thanks
BTW: You havent mentioned about time period for that 3 billion records! if it is over a period of time then BI can take care of its source using fragmentation.

WebAPI or Repository

I have multi-tiered application with SQL databases and MVC and SPA frontend. Some of the data needed by my web application don't reside on the same SQL server while some reside on the same database but in a different schema. The schema has different
permissions. No LinkServer is allowed. For example, data are scatter in the following locations:
1. patient data is on server1.PatientDb.Person.patients,
2. providers data is on Server2.ClinicalDb.staff.doctors
3. nurse data is on Server2.ClinicalDb.staff.nurses
I want to get all patients with their seeing doctors and nurses information. I could theoretically pull all this into 2 edmx (Entity Framework) with LINQ's Include() to join to build hierarchical data and return view model to a single WebAPI controllers.
However, to keep Separation of Concerns, I could make 3 WebAPIs. Each deals with single entity data access and no knowledge of the existence of other entities. I would have another API controller call each of the 3 WebAPIs and assemble the view
model before return to the UI layer. I wonder which design is the best practice with the least dependency. Thanks.

WebAPI is a Http service and Repository pattern is a design pattern used in a DAL in a Seperation of concerns. If you are doing things right, then there should be only one WebAPI that has reference to the DAL with the DAL using Repository
pattens for CRUD operations against the databases. Or you can use DAO pattern in the DAL instead of the Repository pattern.
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/design_pattern/data_access_object_pattern.htm
And you need to be using an ORM.

Hi Rahul,
your question is quite interesting. I did a lot in the area of RBAC to understand the background.
RBAC mainly allows you to
- group responsibilities
- build hierarchies
- manage low level data access (via VPD)
- Grant permissions (new with R12)
Unfortunately you can't control profile options via RBAC. Therefore, the MO:Sec Profile has to stay on responsibility level. I was playing with the alternative to put this profile option on user level, but also in this case the number of maintenance steps will stay the same.
I would like to share a document with you, what's your email (or search my name in linkedin)?

Trying to make sense on how and if RBAC and MOAC could work together

Hi All,
We upgraded from 11.5.9 to R12.1.1 in Nov-2009.
Since the time we have upgraded to R12, we are trying to make sense as to how and if RBAC and MOAC could work together.
The use case is as below:
*11i Days*
US Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser US’
Canada Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser Canada’
France Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser France’
Spain Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser Spain’
North America Financial controller - Switches between 'AR superuser US' and 'AR superuser Canada'
European Financial controller - Switches between 'AR superuser France' and 'AR superuser Spain'
CFO - Switches amongst 'AR superuser US','AR superuser Canada', 'AR superuser France' and 'AR superuser Spain'
Now in R12- (Wow there is MOAC!)
US Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser US’
Canada Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser Canada’
France Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser France’
Spain Accountant - accesses ‘AR superuser Spain’
North America Financial controller - accesses 'AR superuser North America'
European Financial controller - accesses 'AR superuser Europe'
CFO - accesses 'AR superuser Global'
With R12 now there are 3 additional responsibilities.
We have (like most of the other EBS customers) custom responsibilities and so there is maintenance.
More the responsibilities more the maintenance...More the SOD issues.
To prevent creating new responsibilities, we could use the ‘MO: Security Profile’ at the user level BUT that would mean that now these users would have access to multiple OUs for all the responsibilities...that is not good.
What-If: There is only 1 responsibility 'AR SuperUser' and somehow using RBAC, roles are created and assigned to users so that they only have access to specific OUs.
Apparently, MOAC works based on MO:Security Profile that is something that RBAC cannot control.
Am I missing something...RBAC seems to be no good?
In PROD(R12.1.1)- We are expecting that we would end up creating 100+ new responsibilities since we have many shared services users and they all want to benefit from MOAC...Appreciate, if you could please help us understand how we can prevent these 100+ new responsibilities from getting created?
Thanks

Tables for IS-Retail

Can somebody let us know the tables used in specific IS-Retail processes?
1. Listing
2. Merchandise Category
3. Allocation table conditions

Hi,
Merchandise Categories are material groups and classes at the same time. Thus, they do not only use tables
- T023 for material group
- T023T for material group text
But also the tables for a class from classification system:
- KLAH for the class
- SWOR for the class text
- KSML for the assignment of characteristics
- KSSK for assignment to other classes to build hierarchies

Complex Data Modelling

Hi Experts,
I am struck in the data modelling in RPD for the below scenerio.
I have D1,D2,D3,D4 and F1.
1)D1 is one to many D2
2)D2 is many to one D3
3)D3 is one to many D4
4)Finally D4 is one to many F1
Now i need data at D1 and D3 Level but i m confused to build hierarchies and all and how to summed up the data at D1 and D3 Level.
Any help is appreciated.
Edited by: user11204020 on Feb 7, 2013 9:09 PM

Join them in physical layer as you mentioned or as below
D1->D2<-D3->D4->F1
In BMM layer Pull F1 and D4 together and then D4 Source properties->General tab-> Look for Add button (10g) or Map (11g)
Add remaining 3 tables.
Once you done that, pull required columns from 3 tables from physical layer to D4 logical table
If this is not working? send me rpd file to my email

BOM Definition

Hello, I'm new potential future user of SAP. Our company is present in Electronic Assembly industry and I have question for BOM creation for our special cases.
In electronic manufacturing we work with PCB(Printed Circuit Boards) whic ahe in panel form. On this panels we can have several diferent products with different BOM's which are separated at phase of depaneling or separation process.
First phase of pick&place is done on one single panel with several BOM's(PANEL=Prod_AProd_BProd_C) and we would like to use only one Work order or Production order for that. We would like to therat this product as single product with built materials until separation of products to entities is executed.
This can be formulated also as single BOM with phantoms for Prod_A,Prod_B,Prod_C, but by my undersanting phantomsare just some logical structures for helping to build hierarchical structure of BOM.
After separation proces we separate this products to Prod_A,Prod_B,Prod_C, but here comes now my question. Is it possible to connect informations about built in materials on panel in right quantities to each product separatley Prod_A,Prod_B,Prod_C as it would be for instance defined under each phantom for each product?
We need that information in process of traceability.
I hope and I believe that there are solutions in SAP ERP for that, but to find out solution I need your help.
Best regards!

Bejingaf,
The reason that me as non SAP expert is that we were already several times discussing with consultants...In our area they have no experience with electronic manufacturing industries.
I would say you have hired the wrong consulting company. I suggest you dismiss the existing company, or hire additional expertise which will actually be helpful in solving your business problems. You are not doing yourself any favors by compensating for an inadequate consultant by looking in a forum for answers.
Variant BOM's
I have to be careful here, because in SAP 'Variant' in planning means something specific, and it appears in your description you are asking about something else. So, I will answer the question exactly as it was asked. If you actually mean 'Variant configuration', please let me know
You can create a BOM for a material, and any number of alternate BOMs. In your example, you would have one of your alternate BOMs contain the A/B/C/D materials, and in alternate BOM number 1, you could have all your A1/B1/C1/D1 materials. Selecting the proper alternate would automatically select the 'right' components that 'fit' with each other.
BOM with several products()
Your description is somewhat confusing, so I will give some generic solutions. You could have one production order in which you create the panel. This production order can have any number of components and any combination of BOMs, but you are building a 'Panel", which would be considered as a manufactured subassembly..
Now, you want to separate the panel into three products, and you want to execute this process on 3 different work centers. I don't see how this makes sense. At the point you are separating the panel, it can only be done on a single machine or by a single person. Only after the 3 products are separated can you process them through multiple work centers. I suppose you could add a production order for just the 'separation' activity. In this order, the material that you build would be for 'unfinished product A', your BOM would contain components 'Panel', and two co-products 'unfinished product B' and 'unfinished product C'. If it were my factory, I would combine this step with the previous process. Instead of building 'panels', I would build 'unfinished A/B/C using the same co-product logic. Once the unfinished A/B/C are in stock, you can then create three orders for FGs, each of which could be capacity managed.
This is not the only solution. Much depends upon your other business requirements.
Here is some info about co-products.
