Conditionally setting drill paths in RPD

Hi All,
Have any one worked on designing a repository which provides GL information and can drill to subsequent Sub-Ledger(AR,AP,Inv,Assets,...etc) information. Based on Je_Source and Je_category in gl_je_headers user should conditional drill to sub-ledger dimension tables.
Can conditional drill paths be set in RPD level or is there any way of accomplishing this by data warehouse designing.
Can any one help me on this.
Thank you

When you are using the metadata(rpd) drill you cant do that. Unfortunately the easy way to do that is to navigate but you will end up creating more reports and if your drill down is deep then I understand it will real mess. I heard that this is also addressed in 11g but as far as i know compound layout cannot be changed in the drill downs.
I will be glad if i am wrong.
Thanks

Setting a condition for preferred drill path.

Is there a way we can set a condition for preferred drill path in hierarchy?
Our requirement is to skip levels if they have no values..
Thanks in advance.

No you can't (90% sure)
But may be you have ragged hierarchies, have you seen this blog on how to model it ?

Issue with the drill path in Hierarchy in OBIEE 11g

Hi ,
We have upgraded to 11g(11.1.16.6) and an issue we are facing is that the drill path for the time hierarchy is not same.
In 10g its Year >Quarter >Month>Date.
BUt in 11g its rendering as Year >Quarter >Month>Week Number >Date.
The week number is present in the hierarchy defined in the RPD, but the week number has "Use for Display " unchecked.
Not sure why it then is coming up in the drill .

Hi,
You try to make the changes in the hierarchy as per required,and clear the cache then reload the rpd and then restart the services.
its just a try, and reward me if it correct.
Thanks,

Error in setting up Multi-user RPD

Hi
I've managed to set up a local MUD RPD on my laptop for testing purposes. I am able to make updates and then check these into the shared RPD. However when trying to access the shared RPD I receive the message that I am only able to update the RPD in Read-Only mode.
What I want to know is have I missed a step in cecking the updates into the shared RPD which has left a lock on the shared RPD?
The following files are listed in the shared directory:
modified subset of shared_samplesales.001
modified subset of shared_samplesales.002
shared_samplesales.000
shared_samplesales.001
shared_samplesales.002
shared_samplesales.002.csv
shared_samplesales.mhl
shared_samplesales.rpd

Hi
I may have the answer. I copied the file into a different folder and I was able to open the file in offline mode.
It seems that when you set the multi-user RPD in the Tool>Options>Multiuser the folder that you specify here automatically any repository in this folder can only be opened as read-only. I changed the foler path to where I copied the the RPD to and low and behold I was only able to open the file in read-only mode.

But problem occurs when i try to run the crystalreport other than my machine. It always ask for databse password,server name.
Is it possible to set database path dynamically for sql server.
Please help me.
If anybody give me the detail procedure in c# ,it will be appriciated.

I recently came across this issue. I was able to get a
Crystal Report to work dynamically under limited conditions. If you create a
direct connect report for an Oracle database then, it will only connect to
other Oracle databases. The same is true for MSSQL and Sybase. When using the
CRPE or RDC API you must set the logon credentials for the report as a whole
and for each object within the report. Below is a snippet of my code C++ using
the RDC API. This should help get you going.
IReportPtr pReport;
IDatabaseTablesPtr pTables
IDatabaseTablePtr pTable
Int num_tables, i;
// set for whole report
pReport->Database->LogOnServer(DB_DLL, DB_Server_Name, DB_Name,
DB_User_Name, DB_Password);
pTables    = pReport->Database->GetTables();
num_tables = pReport->Database->Tables->Count;
for (i = 1; i <= num_tables; i++)
    pTable = pTables->GetItem(i);
    pTable->SetLogOnInfo(DB_DLL, DB_Server_Name, DB_Name,
DB_User_Name, DB_Password);   // set for each object

Choose Drill Path

Hi,
Can anyone help? I have set up a dimension containing the hierarchy and drill items. However the user in answers does not see the drill path and cannot choose from which item they wish to drill from.
For example, I have 4 levels:
Market
Sales Person
Introducer
Customer
The user can only drill across these levels to reach customer, is there a way where the user can choose to drill from Market to Customer without having to go through each level? Please note that these levels should exist but just allow the user some flexibility in choosing the drill path
Thanks

You can set up 'prefered drill path' in Market level in dimesional hierarchy.Set prefred drill path as Customer level.Then if you click on Market it will go directly to Customer.
But then user wont be able to navigate to Sales Person level from Market level.Another way is to create a report with Market and Customer columns in it.Then give navigation path to this report from Market column in parent report.This will also serve the purpose.

Different drill paths for a common Essbase Dimension with varied depth

Hi,
Need a solution to a problem that I have come across where in I have two Essbase cubes, In both the cubes there exists a dimension A, the dimension has different number of levels in each of the cubes. How do I associate the dimension drill path to match their existing structure in the respective cubes? I want to have only one dimension in the BMM Level.
An example scenario would be :
Cube 1: Product -> Product Category -> Product Sub-Category -> Product Name
Cube 2: Product -> Product Category
I want to have only one Product Dimension in the BMM layer and have multiple Hierarchies on it. My Problem is how do I associate the drill path specific to the cube on which it should work? The cubes are identical to each other in every other aspect other than this one difference.
Thanks and Regards,
jboy

@user3879025: No-one mentioned SAP and ragged hierarchies work perfectly fine for Essbase and MS Analysis server for example.
@jboy: Well ok, so you will have logical table and one hierarchy.
Physically, you will have to define a complex join (physical ones won't work...we discussed that lately here) where Cube1.Country = Cube2.Country.
The logical table will have four logical columns "World", "Region", "Country" and "City". You create those by starting off with the logical table from Cube1. The you pull Cube2.Country onto the Cube1.Country column to get a double mapping for that column. The you pull the Cube2.City column onto the Cube2 logical table source.
Now go through the LTS and columns and make sure they have the correct levels set. LTS for Cube1 will be at level "Country". LTS Cube2 will be "City".
For the hierarchy, you'll also start off with the one which has been created from Cube1.
Since there's now only one column called "Country" remaining, you're already in the green down to that level. Now add a new child which contains the "City" column. That's your hierarchy taken care of.
Now the thing missing is the measures of course. Here you will need to get the levels right again. Cube1.Measure1 and Cube1.Measure2 will be at content level "Country" while the Cube2 measures will be at level "City".
Best thing to do would be to confine that model in an own business model (at least an own presentation catalog) to eliminate problems coming from other (unconforming) dimensions that you will most likely have and hence potential errors thrown for users which are unaware of the actual structure in the background.

Set AS-PATH prepend by matching RT value during import

Hi,
Can some one please explain how to match RT value and set AS-PATH prepend while importing the routes in to a VRF ?
I know AS-PATH prepention can be done with export-map when exporting routes along with setting a RT value. But for some reason this can't be done while importing to the VRF. Please help
Thanks in advance,
Anil.

Anil,
I did some more research and tested it to be working. you were not able to set AS-PATH prepend in an import-map due to the following bug.
I tested the workaround in my lab. If you set local-preference along with as-path prepend then it works fine.
CSCtj85371 Bug Details
import map with as-path prepend
Symptom:
AS_PATH prepend will only work if there is LOCAL PREF defined inside a outbound routemap. If there is only AS_PATH prepend and no LOCAL_PREF, BGP will not prepend the paths with defined AS values.
Conditions:
AS PATH prepend will not be pre-pended properly
Workaround:
Configure LOCAL_PREF along with AS_PATH prepend

How do I set project paths in JBuilder 4?

Hello,
I am trying to create a new project in JBuilder 4.
I used the project wizard and set my paths to the following folders:
C:\OU2007\TM427\mysolution
However when the project and all files are getting saved to these folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\jbproject
Have you any idea why this is? I�m a bit confused on what I should enter for each of the paths in the project wizard, any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
Jason.

It's difficult to set a single font size without wrecking the display of most web sites. One alternative would be to store your preferred zoom level and apply that to all sites. This requires an add-on such as:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
Does that work for you?

How can i set a path for my deployment files in weblogic server 10.3

Hi
How can i set the path for my WAR ,JAR files while deploying.i am using the wls10.3 version.
is there any scripts for this ,please provide me.
my Application is ADF 11g application.

By "path", I assume you mean "classpath".
The simplest way is simply to include the jars you need inside the web application or web module's WEB-INF/lib directory, EJB module's META-INF/lib directory, or EAR lib directory.
If that's not practical, if you use NodeManager to start your servers, you can go to the "Server Start" tab in the server definition in the WebLogic console and edit the "Classpath" field, which defaults to no value. You can specify a classpath value there. Note that if you specify a value there, it REPLACES the default classpath for the server, it doesn't add to it. If you need to just add to it (a much more likely scenario), if the value references the value "$CLASSPATH" in it, that will reference the original classpath value that the server would have had.
So, for instance, if you wanted to include the MQ jars in the server classpath, you could set a value like this:
/usr/java/mq/lib/mq.jar:/usr/java/mq/lib/mqstuff.jar:$CLASSPATH

how do i get the dynamic path set in my forwards action.
Suggestions provided would be really helpful

Setting the path in Windows98

Hello,
I'd like to run my java application on a computer with Windows 98, and not in the java bin directory. I'm familiar with setting the path variables in Windows XP. You go to control panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variable -> and set them as you like. In Windows 98 there seems to be no such method. Instead I'm hacking away at the autoexec.bat file, but I still can't seem to get it to work. Currently, this is what my autoexec.bat file looks like:
REM [Header]
@ECHO OFF
REM [CD-ROM Drive]
REM c:\windows\command\mscdex /d:gem001
REM [Miscellaneous]
REM [Display]
REM [Sound, MIDI, or Video Capture Card]
REM [Mouse]
c:\windows\cwcdata\cwcdos.exe
PATH=c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_01\bin;c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01\bin;
CLASSPATH=c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_01\bin;c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01\bin;
I put the path to both the JRE and JDK in both the PATH and CLASSPATH variables just to be sure. From a DOS prompt, the "java" command seems to work from anywhere, but the "javac" command still only works in the bin directory. Can any think of where I'm going wrong?

This is copied from the installation Instructions for the product you downloaded. (Note the use of quotation marks - eithr do that or uses the 8.3 format of the directory name)
Microsoft Windows 98 - To set the PATH permanently, open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and add or change the PATH statement as follows:
Start the system editor. Choose "Start", "Run" and enter sysedit, then click OK. The system editor starts up with several windows showing. Go to the window that is displaying AUTOEXEC.BAT
Look for the PATH statement. (If you don't have one, add one.) If you're not sure where to add the path, add it to the right end of the PATH. For example, in the following PATH statement, we have added the bin directory at the right end:
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;"C:\PROGRAM FILES\JAVA\JDK1.5.0_<version>\BIN"
Capitalization doesn't matter. The PATH can be a series of directories separated by semi-colons (;). Microsoft Windows searches for programs in the PATH directories in order, from left to right. You should only have one bin directory for a JDK in the path at a time (those following the first are ignored), so if one is already present, you can update it to jdk1.5.0_<version>.
To make the path take effect in the current Command Prompt window, execute the following:
C:> c:\autoexec.bat
To find out the current value of your PATH, to see if it took effect, at the command prompt, type:
C:> path

How to set the PATH in Terminal?

As a newbie to Bash and the Terminal, in connection with installing a new version of Ruby and various add-ons, I have been messing around with changing the PATH via various methods I've found on the internet, and trying to add a new directory to my PATH. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to set the PATH correctly. Here is what I understand so far:
1. Bash first looks to ".bash_profile" in the home directory for PATH settings.
2. If none, Bash then looks to ".bash_login" for PATH settings.
3. If none, Bash then looks to ".profile".
4. If none, Bash then looks to a system file in "/etc/profile" for default PATH settings.
5. For a new shell after login, Bash looks for a ".bashrc" file.
I cannot find any of the above files (I have Finder set to show hidden files already). Somehow, following some instructions from the internet without really knowing what I was doing over the past week I have set my PATH as follows:
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/*****/src:/usr/X11/bin
but I cannot find the file that is setting this PATH. I have tried creating a new ".bash_profile" shell file and putting it in various places such as "/bin" and "/usr/bin" but the file is not being read.
* As a temporary workaround I tried using the command "source .bash_profile" upon login to set the PATH using the .bash_profile file that I created, but it does not work.
* I am able to temporarily alter the path using the command "PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH" but this only lasts for an active shell; when I close out and reopen a new shell, it reverts to the default.
So my questions are:
Is it correct that there is a "/etc/profile" somewhere that is setting the default PATH? If so where is it? Should I alter it, or create a new ".bash_profile" somewhere to set the PATH? If not, where is my PATH being set? If I should create a new ".bash_profile", what exactly should go in it?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

... I created a new ".bash_profile" file directly under my home directory and it worked like a charm. Below is the content of the file:
"PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin/:/sbin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/sbin/:/Users/******/Ruby:/Users/*******/src:/Users/******/Java Programs/"
What are the "..."'s? Is that just you, or is the contents of the file actually inside of double quotes?
is there an 'export PATH' also in the file? As in
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin/:/sbin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/sbin/:/Users/******/Ruby:/Users/*******/src:/Users/******/Java Programs/
export PATH
And did you either restart your Terminal session so your .bash_profile was read, or issue a 'source .bash_profile' command to execute the .bash_profile after your change?
The only remaining problem is that from the home directory, I'm unable to directly run programs in the above-designated subdirectories (without first navigating to the subdirectory containing the file. Is there something wrong with the syntax or order of the directories I put in the path?
For example: there is a file called "newprogram.rb" in the "Ruby" directory listed above. I should be able to execute it from the home directory using "ruby newprogram.rb" but it does not work. The same command works fine from within the "Ruby" directory.
Does the 'ruby' command search PATH to find its scripts?
Have you read the "man ruby" man page to see if it talks about PATH?
A common Unix feature is that programs and scripts with the executable bit set, and are located in a PATH directory, will be run if you just type their names.
For example, if the first line of newprogram.rb script starts with
#!/usr/bin/ruby
and if the script is executable
chmod +x newprogram.rb
And if it is in a directory in PATH, then just typing
newprogram.rb
should run your perl script using /usr/bin/ruby. If you want to use a different version of Ruby, then change the #! line so it point to your version of Ruby. Or if your version of Ruby is found earlier in PATH then the /usr/bin/ruby, you can use
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
as your script's first line which will search PATH for 'ruby' and use the first one it finds.

How do I set execution path in VAPI-XP-TEST?

Hi,
I have created a VAPI-XP-TEST which calls my project's executable from it's Debug folder.
I am setting the path of the executable via Parameters.
My project has a configuration file which reads from some input files. I have given the relative path of the files in the configuration.
The relative path reads as ..//..//Input
So, the test needs to go 2 levels back from the "Debug" folder and get the contents of the "Input" folder.
My project runs fine as is.
However, when I hook up this exe to a VAPI-XP-TEST, the relative path accesses the install location of ALM instead of my Project's debug folder. Hence, the test fails as it is unable to find the Input folder.
How can I specify in my test script or through a setting, to take the path as my project's debug folder?
I have tried the following command just before I trigger the XTools.Run command, but it did not work.
Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(path) - where path is the path to my project's Debug folder.
Please help!

No, that's not quite what our friend Apple Certified was saying. In summary (from someone who has ballsed this exercise up a few times now):
1. Move your apple loops folder to the external drive. You'll then need to open logic and drag the loops folder on to the loops browser to make it re-index them.
2. You can move the EXS samples to the ext drive as suggested via the use of aliases. Do NOT move the sample instruments folder.
3. You can move the projects and related audio files to an external hard drive if you wish.
4. Be careful moving garage band instruments. You can move them in the same way you moved the EXS sounds, except for the Hybrid synthesizers. If you move them you'll have trouble later.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I've mis-stated anything, but from my experience those are the main points to focus on. Hope that helps.
