Customization of Filter View in 10g

Hi Guru's
User wants to see the entered parameters, so we have placed filter view.Now the user wants to have some customization of the text that being displayed.
Eg: Name is prompted.
output of filter view would be Name is equal to xxxx
Expected change is Name = xxxx
Please suggest me how to achieve this.Waiting For the response.
Thank you All

Edited by: 836776 on Sep 6, 2012 3:59 AMAre you serious? The user cannot handle "Name is equal to xxxx"?? It never ceases to amaze me how much users can find something to complain about. But as an analyst, it is important to manage expectations. Remember that whatever you customize, you must document and maintain so anyone else can support your design. To me, this is a perfect example of telling the user "sorry, this can't be done," rather than try to add anything suggested earlier to try and mimic what the user wants.
This kind of change is not worth the effort to figure out... my two cents... :)

  • Customization of filter view in obiee 10g

    Hi,
    I have a report with chart view and filter view.
    We have some implicit filters in the report(static filters).
    Is it possible to hide the static filers and display only the selected prompt values(explicit filters/dynamic filters) in the filter view.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sankat.

    Hi,
    I dont know if this idea works for your requirement.
    Try to have a dummy condition validate the static and the dynamic filters in the reports.
    For example-
    column_name less than 0
    and static filters
    OR
    column_name greater than 1
    and dynamic filters
    Hope this helped/ answered

  • Can we customize the column name in filter view?

    When i select filter view and select an option from the drop down, it shows the name of the column and not the variable set in the prompt.
    I want to customize that name so that it does not show the column name,shows the name given by us instead.
    Please Help!!!

    You can't customize the filter view, play around with the narrative view instead.

  • Customize Filter View in OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    Is there any way to customize the filter view? My requirement is not to show formulas that are used in Analysis in the “Filter view”. All analysis that we create should go with Filter Views at the bottom and Users should not see the formulas.
    Example:
    Column Formula:
    FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’)
    If I filter the above column, it shows something like this:
    FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’) is Prompted.
    What is need to show in the filters is the Title of the column i.e. Electronics Sales.
    Thanks in advance.

  • FILTER VIEW IN WHICH JS

    Could Anybody tell me through which JS file the filter view will be showed ? I want to format the showing style.

    Hi,
    If you need to change the style/format then you need to edit the css files. In case you want to format the filter view, you need to check the views.css files. In 10g, based on the type of installation and default style currently being used, the path would be similar to below:
    \OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4
    \OracleBI\web\app\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4
    All the css classes which are involved in formatting filter view are present under Filters sections.
    Thanks

  • Formatting Filter View

    Is there a way to format the Filter View so that it resembles a Report header.
    For example -The filter view displays the folowing at present:
    Organization Type Name is equal to Manufacturing, Marketing
    and      Geo is equal to DEFAULT
    and      Country is equal to US
    I would like to change it to something like
    Organization Type = Manufacture, Marketing<--------SPACE--------> Geo = DEFAULT
    Country = US
    Is there a template which I can modify ?
    Thanks

    Narrative view is the simple and more handy for this request.
    Here is how it works:
    Assume that your Criteria is as follows
    Date, Client, Gross Sales
    and you have filters on Date and Client Columns.
    Hit results tab and add a new Narrative View.
    In the Narrative View, check the Contains HTML Markup box.
    In the prefix,
    Date =
    In the Narrative
    @1 <br>
    Create another Narrative View as
    In the prefix,
    Clients =
    In the Narrative
    @2 <br>
    Add these two narrative views to your compound layout.
    If you have enough HTML experience, you can customize this view as you want.

  • Session Variable in filter view error

    Hello,
    My prompt is defaulted to current 12Weeks. I used session variable in the prompt to capture 12 Weeks (Current Week and Current+12).
    so the default value is @{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.PERIOD_STDATE']} where PERIOD_STDATE is my session varible.
    I am using a filter view to display the filters being applied.
    When the user opens a tab, the filter view is throwing error
    ***The syntax of the expression to be evaluated is invalid.***
    ***Expression: @{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.PERIOD_STDATE']}***
    My report is running fine. I just have the date column as prompted in my report request.
    When the user hits go button on the prompt then the filter view comes up just fine.
    What is that I am doing wrong? Why does the filter view gives result after hitting GO button?
    Please help.
    thanks,
    deep

    Hi,
    1. Set the default using logical SQL. Select <presentation table>.<presentation column> from <subject area> where <presentation table>.<presentationation column> =valueof(NQ_SESSION.<session variable>)
    2. You dont have to write the exact syntax for entering the session variable in the default values. You just need to use the session variable name after selecting the session variable type in the drop down.
    Hope this helped/ answered.

  • How to change the display name in the filter view

    Hi,
    I have one column "*Year*" and type in case when 1=2 then "product_d"."name" else "calendar_d"."year" end.
    I add a filter view for it. but when I select, like 2010, it will display"case when 1=2 then "product_d"."name" else "calendar_d"."year" end" is equal to 2010.
    So how can I change it to "Year is equal to 2010"?
    Any one have any idea about this?

    Hi David,
    About your confuse about"case when 1=2 then "product_d"."name" else "calendar_d"."year" end".
    You can try in your locale.
    You will find they are different.
    BASED ON THAT you have two table product_d and calendar_d AND they are related by one Fact table.
    THEN When you type in
    "case when 1=2 then "product_d"."name" else "calendar_d"."year" end"
    AND
    "calendar_d"."year",
    IT WILL SHOW U TWO different RESULTS.
    I need to show year which its related product is not null. but I cannot use SHOW->SQL RESULTS->TYPE SOME "WHERE..." because I also need to use "constrain"..
    That why I choose to use a case when function..
    So, do you have any idea about this?
    Regards,
    AnneWhy not use two filters in your request? Have something like this:
    product_d.name IS NOT NULL
    AND
    calendar.year IS PROMPTED?
    ...instead of using a CASE statement? This way you can have both filters show the way they should in a meaningful way.

  • Format of Filter view

    Hi all,
    How to change format of filter view in answers? How to remove border line of filter? I have looked in views.css and format of filter is set as
    .FilterFirstTable
    .FilterTable
    border: solid 1px #CCCCCC;
    .FilterCell
    font-size: 8pt;
    border: 0px;
    text-align: left;
    padding: 2px 4px;
    .FilterValueSpan
    font-weight: bold;
    .FilterOpCell
    font-size: 8pt;
    font-weight: bold;
    vertical-align: top;
    top: -6pt;
    padding: 2px 0px 2px 4px;
    And problem is that I have border line. But when I log on VMWare on samplesales repository the same format is there. But there is no borderline on filter view.
    Thanks

    Changing the ini files should change the date format. Have you amended the correct instances of the date format? In dbFeatures there is one for every ODBC connection.
    For example in my DBFeatures.INI
    [ DATA_SOURCE_FEATURE = ODBC_300 ]
    DATE_FORMAT = 'dd-mm-yyyy' ;
         TIME_FORMAT = 'hh:mi:ss' ;
         DATE_TIME_FORMAT = 'dd-mm-yyyy hh:mi:ss' ;
         IDENTIFIER_QUOTE_CHAR = '"';Also a file on the presentation side in OracleBI \web\Config called localedefinitions.xml.
    Inside that there appears to be defaults for localisations - maybe it is possible to amend your locale in the Administration settings of the dashboard.
    However, I haven't tried this sorry.

  • How to hide filter view calculations in answers in obiee 11g?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to hide the "CASE WHEN" statements which are there in the filter view while viewing the report in Dashboard. User dont want to see the calculation part in filter view instead they just want to see the selected dashboard prompt value. For e.g
    case when (column name1('column value1' IN '@{Presentation_var}' ) > 0 AND "Table name"."column name2"='column value2') or (column name1('column value1' IN '@{Presentation_var}' ) > 0 AND "Table name"."column name2"='column value2') then "table name"."column name" end
    or
    case when 2 statement
    and
    Case when 3 statement
    or Case when 4 statement
    therefore user wants only the bold text value(table name"."column name) to be displayed only not the calculation at front end.
    I can think of Narrative view but how to do that exactly? Please help.
    Thanks..

    try this, It seemed to have worked for me..
    Below was my case statement
    (CASE WHEN '@{var_brand}' = 'Value1' and "Compl"."RecTypeId" IN (5,8,9) THEN 1
    WHEN '@{var_brand}' = 'Value2' and "Compl"."RecTypeId" IN (11,12,13) THEN 1
    ELSE 0 END)=1
    I used it as a column in my analysis with the following formula
    (CASE WHEN '@{var_brand}' = 'Value1' and "Compl"."RecTypeId" IN (5,8,9) THEN 1
    WHEN '@{var_brand}' = 'Value2' and "Compl"."RecTypeId" IN (11,12,13) THEN 1
    ELSE 0 END)
    and I made a change to the name of the column in the analysis using custom column headings and put it as "Brand"
    and now put a filter on this column and filtered it for for the value 1
    and my filters view now shows the column Name "Brand" instead of the Case Statement..
    See if this process works for you..

  • Reg Filter View in Combined Request OBIEE11g

    Hi,
         We have a requirement where we need to show the filter view in a combined request. Currently we have achieved the same but putting another request but the issue when the download of the request happens the filter view is not downloaded and it has to be downloaded separately. We are using OBIEE11g(11.1.1.6.9).
         Please advise if there is any workaround to achieve this functionality so that download of results and filter view can be achieved in one shot. Thanks.

    Dev,
    Not possible to use the filter view in union request.Try creating the filters with filter view as a separate request and add them to the dashboard.

  • Customize the Filter HUD

    Is is possible to customize the Filter HUD?
    I don't use the Flagged or *Color Label* options often, but would like Calendar to be part of the filter every time.
    Can I remove the ones I don't use and add calendar? If so how would I do that?
    TIA

    Ray,
    Thanks for the response. I am aware of the controls you mentioned and, of course, I have had to use them.
    I'm just a little put out that for this kind of filter I have no better control of the filter items than this. As I said earlier I almost never flag or color images and almost ALWAYS use the calendar so it becomes a huge PIA to delete and add these filters every time I want to look for and/or work on specifically dated images.
    I think I ought to be able to designate the default filter items.
    Thanks again for your interest and assistance.
