CRM on Demand Reporting; Action Links in Pivot Tables

Hi All
I have a problem with Action Links for Oracle CRM on Demand. When I click on an action link to navigate to an account detail page, I get the following error:
The record you are trying to access has been deleted or has been assigned a new owner and you no longer have access to it. If you deleted the record, it may be accessed in Deleted Items. If you continue to have problems contact your Oracle CRM On Demand Administrator.
Browsing the forums brought up this thread: Can't access a record with an ActionLink
In this thread it's said to place the Account ID column right next to the Account Name column. This solution works for regular tables, but not for pivot tables.
Is it possible to link to an account detail page from pivot links?

For pivot tables you will have to use this method in order to be able to drill down to the detail page:
On you Report-
Define Criteria: Add the Account ID (Record ID field is a must)
- Click on the Properties icon on this column--> Data Format Tab --> uncheck Override Default Data Format and select Plain Text from the Treat Text as drop down.
Add the below code in the text area.
"http://"@[html]"<a target=_top
href=https://*secure-ausomxXXX*.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/AccountDetail?OMTGT=AccountDetailForm&OMTHD=AccountDetailNav&AccountDetailForm.Id="@">View Account</a>"
Add this column on the Rows section of the pivot table.
Hope this helps!

Problem with SSAS cube reporting action when using pivot filter with cubevalue function

Hi everyone,
I have a quite specific problem when I combine cube actions (Reporting Action SSRS) with Excel's cubevalue() function.
The problem is when I use a pivot filter as a parameter for the cubevalue() function. The action item does not show up in the context menue.
The cube action works fine when I do it from a "normal" pivot or if I use the cubevalue() function without the reference to a pivot filter (all the parameters in the function are "hard-coded").
I use SSAS 2012 and Excel 2010.
Thanks for yor help.

Hi everyone,
I actually figured out a way to solve this problem. I had to use a detour to solve this bug in Excel (at least I think it's a bug).
What I needed to do: I had to make Excel belive that the filter is actuall hard-coded and does not come from a pivot filter. This was only possible by adding a new calculated measure to the cube that gives back the MEMBER_Unique_Name to the current member
passed. This "value" can then be used to go back to the cube and select the cubemember function. Here is a small example.
This is the cube member:
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[RegCompBranNameKey] AS
[Company Branch].[Reg - Comp - Bran Name].CurrentMember.Properties("MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME", TYPED),
VISIBLE = 0 ;
And this is then done in a hidden Excel cell:
=CUBEMEMBER("Metrics";
IF(RIGHT(CUBEVALUE("Metrics";<PivotFilter>;"[Measures].[RegCompBranNameKey]");5)="[ALL]";"[ALL]";
RIGHT(CUBEVALUE("Metrics";<PivotFilter>;"[Measures].[RegCompBranNameKey]");LEN(CUBEVALUE("GlobalMetrics";<PivotFilter>;"[Measures].[RegCompBranNameKey]"))-57)
I had to use the UniqueName property because I have a combined filter. That's also the reason for this truncation and also useing the last part of it. If you just have a straight key you more easily use it.

Hierarchal Columns and Passing Values to a Detail Report (Action Links)

I have a question in OBIEE 11.1.1.5 around Hierarchal Columns and passing the values to a detail report. I have create a report with a Hierarchal column (Two Levels only), Month Column and a metric.
I created a detail report and see both columns used in the hierarchy to "is Prompted" as well as the Month column.
On the Summary report I put an Action Link on the Metric to navigate to this Detail Report. When I select the metric I see that the Month value gets passed to the Detail Report but none of the Hierarchal columns have been passed at all.
When I replace the hierarchal column with just the two columns, the values get passed fine.
Is this a known issue with Hierarchal columns? Is this functionality even available?
Thanks

I am assuming then that no one has attempted this on the forum?

ALV Report program linking 5 db tables.

What should be the general approach to generate a simple ALV program that links 5 database tables, where the selection criteria is date field?
Edited by: Matt on Dec 4, 2008 11:38 AM - Removed all caps

SAP Query is a bit of an abomination -- complicated to use correctly and definitely difficult to maintain.
If you need to get stuff from 5 different databases in one report it might be better from a Systems Performance perspective to create a "Z_object" containing the data you want and then simply run your ABAP ALV against your "Z_Object".
Depending on the frequency / content of your report you could run say a batch job every evening to update your "Z_Object".
The other possibility would be to run your query on a BW/BI system if the volume of data is quite large -- however if you don't have BW then OK this is not a possible solution.
My preference would be to go for the "Z-Object".
I also have to wonder at how the original application was designed if you really do need to collect data from 5 different data bases --perhaps you should re-design the original application.

How to create a record link in pivot table?

Hi,
I have records in pivot table.
I want to have ActionLink on the record, ex., i have lead record clicking on first name or last name or lead id it should take to me to the detail lead page(from pivot table).

To achieve this, use the following:
In column properties, choose data format tab.
Override the default data format, Treat Text as Custom Text Format.
Paste the following into the format box:
@[html]<a href="/OnDemand/user/LeadsDetailPage?OMTGT=LeadDetailForm&LeadDetailForm.Id="@ target="_parent">"Lead Details"<a/>
Good Luck.

Link between Oracle Forms(6i/9ids) with CRM on Demand

Can I connect oracle forms 6i or 9ids with CRM On Demand through web link or any other way? if yes how is it possible?

How you link Forms applications to other applications usually depends on what interface that 3rd party application exposes to Forms. For example, if functionality is exposed via a web service then Forms can quite easily call a web service. But the answer depends on how CRM exposes its functionality.

Link Pivot tables between workbooks

I have two BEx workbooks A and B. Workbook A has the query data, pivot table and a pivot chart. I need to create a new Workbook B and link only the pivot table from Workbook A to the Workbook B.
Can we link a pivot table between two workbooks?
Raadooo

Thanks a lot, Chivukula !!!
This is what I got. I have 5 huge separate queries saved as workbooks. Each of these workbook has the query data. I created pivot table from this data and generated charts in the workbook for each of the seperate queries.
But now, I need to join or link only the charts into one workbook, to display a dashboard view. This dashboard view should have all the charts.
Since I would like to get the charts as a dynamic pivot charts, I want to link the pivot table from the exisiting workbook to the new workbook.
Can this be acheived? If not what is the other possible solution?
Thanks a lot for your help again!!!!

Pivot table problem. Please help me create this report

Hi friends..I'm new to OBIEE. We can create the grand total column in pivot table. I need grand total as well as Grand average. How can I create a new column in pivot table that is same as grand total but calculates average.
My table structure is like this.
Facility......Date........totaldays
A..........01/01/08......210
B..........01/01/08......215
C..........01/01/08......917
A..........02/01/08......211
B..........02/01/08......211
C..........02/01/08......911
A..........03/01/08......210
B..........03/01/08......215
C..........03/01/08......917
I need the report like this..
Facility.....01/01/08......02/01/08....03/01/08...Total....AVG
A...............210.............211............210.....631......210.3
B...............215.............211............215.....641.....213.6
C...............917.............911............917.....2745....915
For this report..I created pivot table but I'm not able to calculate the average..
Can you please help..I'm new to OBIEE...
Thanks in advance

Please change your username....
Here is what you need to do...
1) In the Pivot Table View, click on the Measures column and select New Calculated Item.
2) In the pop-up window complete as follows:
Name: type "Total Average"
Function: Select "Average" from the drop-down window.
Click on the values in the right pane that you wish OBI to calculate the average for.
3) Click "OK."
You now have another column that is the average of the values in each row.

How can I find overlapping pivot tables?

I am getting errors in my Excel workbook that contains around 50 reports that say "A pivot table cannot overlap another pivot table". I tried to insert rows inbetween tables on each worksheet but it did not solve the issue. How can I find
which reports are overlapping, and is there a way to correct this without re-creating reports?

Linda,
Here is the full link to the page David linked:

Change connection from SQL to SSAS for power pivot table

Hi,
I have created a power pivot table using MDX query from SSAS. I also created multiple pivot table and other complex reports using this power pivot table. Now I should use a different cube which has almost different columns than the old cube. It would be
a hassle now to simply change the query and hence redoing the entire report due to column name changes. I was hoping to use the SQL OPENQUERY using linked server to get data from SSAS using MDX to SQL so that I can alias the column names to old. The problem
now is I cannot change the connection for existing power pivot table to a different provide (sql) from SSAS. Is there anyway I can do this?
Please let me know if there is any other way that would save me from re-doing the entire report.
Thanks

Unfortunately, you can't just repoint the connection currently - you will need to rebuild it. I've run into this myself not too long ago, and the team is aware of the requirement.

Showing Active tests in a pivot table

Hi,
If I wanted to recreate the standard Test Plan Progress report in an Excel pivot table what Pivot table fields are required? I cannot get the tests that were never run to show in my pivot table - what am I missing? In Test Manger the
tests that are not run are flagged as "Active" but I can't not find the equivalent state in the Pivot table fields. Is the state "never run", as shown in the Test Plan Progress report, the same as "Active"
in Test Manager?
Cheers
Dave
Test Plan Progress
Test Plan Progress

Hi dsw850,
For the test plan process report in the excel, we could add the necessary fields to the report from PivotTable Fields. The required fields are based on the detail requirements.
Base on my test, I found that the Active state (In mtm) are mapped to the
Never run (In report). We could check the Outcome field (Test Result) in the PivotTable Fields to check the detail state of each test case result. It contains the history state.
There is a link about test plan process report that may benefit you:

Need to eliminate Space between two Pivot table view in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have a requirement to eliminate space between two pivot table views. In a single report I have two Pivot table with two different column, I placed both of them one after another, but I need to eliminate the space between two pivot table views as if it should show as a single pivot table in OBIEE 11g.
Could anyone please let me know how I can do this in OBIEE 11g?
Thanks in Advance

If I create narrative view it will be another view. And if I put that in between that two pivot view, it will show the space. I need to remove space between two pivot table within a single report so that it can appear as a single pivot view.

Conditional Format in Pivot Table

Thanks in advance...
I created report like below in pivot table
_____Year 2009
______Period 3
Name Mark
Aju__ 100
Alex_ 75
Mick_ 80
Rabi_ 90
sam_ 80
from this report I need to highlight the entire row of 'Alex' and 'Sam' ...
but its work in 'Compound Layout'
How could I do this ?
Regards,
Selva

Hi Selva,
Conditional formatting is bit difficult for your requirement in Pivot table,because there some limitations in conditional formatting of pivot table.
You can select the entire Pivot table and apply the conditional formatting but..conditions will only format specific Cells .. and can not format entire row.. (for exmp. it will highlight only cell of alex. and not entire row of alex)
Hope this will help..
Thanks.
