Change Image based on dashboard prompt

Hello
Im using OBIEE 11G 11.1.1.5
I need to show on a dashboard, the logo (Image) of the company selected on a dashboard prompt. I have 5 companies and each has its own logo. Only one company can be selected.
Is there a way to acomplish that ?
Thanks

Hi Andres,
We can make use of the 'Conditional display of sections in dashboard based on analysis results'. One option certainly is to write different analysis (narrative view or static text) with your company logs and embedding them in different sections of their corresponding reports in dashboards. These sections need to be conditionally displayed based on the dashboard prompt chosen. You can create analysis, each to read the presentation variable (associated with the prompt) and display a record only if a particular company is chosen. (Ex: Create an analysis with one column as @{variables.CompanyPrompt}. Create a filter on it like 'is equal to 'Oracle'. So this analysis, would display a record only if the presentation variable has the value 'Oracle').
I would keep you posted if I hit at any other much efficient way.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar

Calculation based on Dashboard prompt

Hi,
How to calculate numerical values based on dashboard prompt values
Ex if we select 'N' from prompt it should divide numerical value in the request by some other measure else default value.
Thanks
Suresh

Hi...
If your question is that, solution provided by naresh, then... small correction (not exactly correction... but my view...)
*CASE WHEN upper('@{VAR}')='N' THEN your measure ELSE '@{VAR}{ +default value+ }' END*
upper function is used.. if your prompt has editbox control and enter small n or capital.... don't worry... as it converts to upper and checking for capital N only...
Here VAR is presentation variable name you have given...
'@{VAR}{ +default value+ }' is variable name with the default value i.e. there in your dashboard prompt if you have specified...
Ex: *'{@var_region}{CENTRAL REGION}'*
Naresh post is.. really helpful to you... i hope...
Thanks & Regards

How to change images based on action.Even clicking changed images should ?

how to change images based on action.
Even clicking changed images should do respective actions.
and while displaying only one image at a time sholud get displayed.
I am using three images for a single column of a table in Jsp.
Any clues.
Any link for any good javascript html jsp site where i can find some good solution.
vijendra

In broad way if i say i have multiple situations in mutiple tables where i need such a logic to operate in for all tables.
lets say in first time load of page by default one image will be displayed (one with sorted order for first column rest all non sorted)Now after every click to any image respective sort should get called.along with all images should get changed.Here with every function one/two images will get effect at least.
As in first if i say sort by desc then this image will change rest all will remain in unsort form.
when i move to other column and click on new image the previos will convert to unsort and new one will convert to sort by ascending. rest all will be in unsort form as it is.
Now it seems like same logic is required with two three conditions.
even for everyaction different parametrs has to be passed at differnt situations.
Any good idea if someone can suggest.
I will be very greatful for him.
thanks

Dynamically change column heading without Dashboard Prompt

Hi All,
My requirement is change the column heading dynamically in a report. I have achieved this through setting the presentation variable to the dashboard prompt.
I have 5 columns in the dashboard prompt. Out of these 5 columns, I want to use only 1 column as dashboard prompt.
But still I want to dynamically change the column heading of the other 4 columns based on the only 1 column selected in the dashboard prompt.
Is there anyway to achieve this?

You need to have some logic to change other 4 columns based on 1 selected column.. where you want put that logic?

Filter Page Prompts based on Dashboard Prompts Presentation Var

Hey, No one has faced this issue? Can I get some inputs please?
Hi,
I have a requirement where in I need to filter the multi-select values in the page prompt, based on the presentation variable that is set by dashboard prompt. Oracle said that its a bug,
that once a presentation variable is set, we can't use that in SQL, when using multi select. But, I am wondering if anyone has some work around solution for this?
TO be more clear, here is the explanation.
I have a dashboard prompt that is selected initially in a page, which sets a presentation variable. Now, in another page, I want to use a multi-select prompt, which take the SQl values that filters based on the presentation variable set initially. But, this is not working. I am not able to filter values when I use the SQl like, "select .. from ..where var = presentation_var."
If anyone has any workarounds, thats appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry, no such functionality, at least not yet.
Build two dashboards, one for the business users and one for the technical users. Then build a third "cover page" dashboard with two links using the Link or Image object. One link will say "Business Users" the other "Technical Users" and the links will take them to their own dashboard with just the prompts that concern them.
If you want to bypass the "cover page" idea, you can use Portal Path to direct all business users to the "business" dashboard and the technical staff to the "technical" dashboard based on their login.
Check this out for how to do this:

Changing Date Format in Dashboard prompt drop down list

Hi friends, my dashboard shows a drop down list for dates , which are in format "7/1/2008 12:00:00 AM".
This is defined datetime datatype in sql server. Is there any way to change the date format in dashboard prompt to just "7/1/2008" without doing it in database side.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and regards

Hi... Toony
In Dashboard Prompt, you have option to select i.e. show SQL,
there you write the Logical SQL or Advanced SQL: <em>select cast("timestampCOLUMN" as date) from "PresentationLayerName"</em>
this is simple way without changing anything in rpd side...
And if you want the timestamp column somewhere in some reports you can use that column directly.
If you don't want you need to cast it as DATE.
If your question was answered then put it as answered and mark it as correct... ;)

Date Dimension changes format when in dashboard prompt

Hi
I have created a report in OBIEE 10g wherein a dimension is DATE. It displays as MM-DD-YYYY. I also created a dashboard prompt using this dimension.
However, when I select a value from the prompt in the dashboard, it says that:
"A date value was expected (received "2007-01-05 00:00:00")"
I hope you can help me with this problem.

Hi,
In the physical layer, go to the properties of the field(Your Date dimension column) and change it's type from Timestamp into Date. Hope this will solve your issue.
Thanks,
Balaa...

Column hiding based on Dashboard Prompt value in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
Can you please let me know, whether there is any possibility of "hiding the column based on the value selected in the Dashboard Prompt".
Your suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards
Siva

Hi,
Simple way to solve it.
Steps
1.) set presentation variable for each columns of your dashboard prompt
2.) edit your analysis of table/pivot view ---> colums formate header in this place just keep it your presentation variable values like below
E.x
@{ccy}
Then save it and then test out

Changing images based on keys pressed

Ok, I'm trying to make my character face a different direction when a key is pressed (when left is pressed, he faces left, when right is pressed, he is facing right). Right now I am going to load all the images into an array and then tell it which one to paint based on the key pressed. Anything faster or better?
Thanks!

Hmmm, javax. The javax packages usually accompany
pain and torture... eerrrr, swing. I detest swing. I
will use this for now, but do you know of any other
ways to do this? Or is this not related to swing?The javax package contains alot more than Swing.
Saying all javax packages are painful to use, simply because you don't like swing is silly.
As for answering your question. Try re-reading the post by KarateMarc.
You can either use MediaTracker (horrible, but it will let you know when the image is loaded) or ImageIO to properly load your images.

Hello,
Using guided navigation properties for section, we can achieve your first requirement.
How many prompts to be shown?
depends on that number, you have to create those many reports in answers like,
take one column to criteria and change functionaityt to case when 1=0 then Markets. Region else user() end
apply filter on this equals to UserA (for userA), say ReportA
for UserB filter has to change to UserB, say ReportB...etc
Now, add all the prompts to dashboard, but each section (dashboard object) for each prompt.
Go to section properties of each and select guided navigation property. The section which is holding the PromptA (should be shown to userA) then browse the reportA for guided navigation and click ok
LIke this do for all prompts.
Hope you understood...
if any queries ask me..
And for 2nd Q, in prompt, you have Select captio option which is the last option for all prompts,
Write something there and check

Can I pass parameters from a dashboard via a dashboard prompt and presentation variable to publisher report based on a data model with select statements in OBIEE 11g ?

I have a publisher 11g (v 11.1.1.7) report with a single parameter. The report is based on a data model not a subject area. I created a dashboard put a dashboard prompt and link to the report in separate section on the same page. The dashboard prompt sets a presentation variable named the same as the parameter in the report.
The problem was when I created the dashboard prompt, it forced me to select a subject area which I did (though did not want to) and then I created both a column and variable prompts. But clicking on the
report link completely ignored the value that I thought would be passed in the presentation variable to the report.
Side note : My report uses a pdf template for its layout where I have mapped the columns names from my data model to the form fields on the pdf form. I noticed that if I create a publisher report based on a subject area, then I do not have the choice to choose a PDF as a template type for my layout. (I only see BI Publisher Template as a choice).
I see some documentation online that suggest it could be done in 10g.
Thanks

Ok,
I just tried that and it still doesn't pass anything to the prompt.
I changed the prompt to an edit field and I made the following weblink but when i click the link from an account it doesn't put anything in the prompt and all data for all accounts is shown.
This is the URL maybe I messed something up...

Unnecessary Report refresh on the dashboard when changing the dashboard prompts

Hello All
I have two reports on a dashboard with two dashboard prompts for example Report 1) Year, State, Count; Filter: Year is prompted 2) Year, State, Count; FIlter: State is prompted. On the dashboard we have two reports Report1) and Report 2) with Year and State dashboard prompts.
The issue is when you change year prompt both the reports gets refreshed even though nothing changes on report 2 but it still dissapears and appears as it is refreshing and the same happens with report 1 when i change the state prompt it refreshes that report.
Please letme know how i can limit the dashboard prompt to refresh only the report where it is prompted.
Thanks
Ravi

are you talking about the database table caching? if so we are using OLAP cubes and I am not sure if caching is disabled. Is my issue related to caching? also another updated if I have just one dashboard prompt for example just year only report 1 refreshes and the report 2 doesn't disappear. But when I add state dashboard prompt, which ever prompt I change state or year both reports refreshes. The problem is when I add more than one prompt on the dashboard all the reports refreshes when the dashboard prompt selection changes. Any ideas.
Thanks
