Data Forms member drill down

Hi,
In data forms when i drill down to some member i always have the ancestor at the bottom. Is it possible to set it up to have the ancestor on the top?
When i drill down i would like to have my e.g. Revenue Total as a member on top and its descendants below when i drill down....
Thank you very much
lubos

Hi Lubos,
We have faced a similar situation ,where our clint while drilling down , he wants the parent on top. Not only in data form, its the same in reporting tools like Web analysis.
We did not find any setting which can change this pattern. We end up education users ? :)

How to Hide/show the columns data while doing Drill down or drill up

Hi ,
How to Hide/show the columns data while doing Drill down or drill up in webi report .
Does it possible BO 3.1 version ?
Please suggest me on this.
Thanks & Regards
Venkat

While that is not there yet, you can make use of the show when empty yes/no in combination with alerters.
So I have an alerter applied to every cell of the table.
When a condition is true (say I drilled down) I just put = "" in every cell, emptying the table,
because its now empty and doesn't need to show, it wont.
For the detail table I use the opposite, so when you drilled down it becomes visible...
Hope this helps all that do not have 40 yet
Good luck,
Marianne

Unable to call a form from drill-down report

hello
i have a drill-down report, from where i wanna to call a transacation level form, so that user can modify the data from that transaction level form after seeing the result from report. After modification in data through form, report should be refreshed automatically.
i am using form6i, can't user dde.app_begin because it starts a new session

Hi,
if this is for Forms on the web, just call the Reports from web.show_document() when closing the Forms (assuming you close the Forms after the update).
If it is on client/server then you don't have a hook into Reports except you run a new Reports from Forms and close the Reports that called the Forms application (needs to be done within this Report)

QM data: how to drill down to individual measurements?

Hi,
I have installed 6 of the QM-cubes from business content - so far, so good. Now, I have been asked if it is possible to drill down to the individual measurements in the quality inspections. I am trying to assess if it is possible. As far as I can see it is not possible with the business content.
Apparrently it has been done before (in an other SAP installation), but the person who claim that it is possible, cannot give further details...
My best idea is to use the 'Quality Management - Statistical Data Interface'
(https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/services.sdn?page=statistical_data_interface.htm and http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/a6/b49fa7538c11d189570000e8323352/frameset.htm). All the data sources seem to do some kind of aggregation; I guess 2LIS_05_QE2 is the datasource that is closest to what I need.
Also I cannot find any usefull info on QM-STI other than the two links above...
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Christian

You have two alternatives:
1. Enhance the business content with fields that identify the required level of detail
2. Define a RRI target to your R/3-System
I would prefer loading detailed information to ODS objects.

Drill Down when data is coming from a query

Hello experts,
I have one question regarding the drill down functionality. For sake of simplicity, let's assume we are working on a pie chart.
i) Data is coming from a query (via the universe).
ii) The data source is really the query itself, it is not coming from the excel sheet. In other words, the query is not first copied to the excel sheet and then fed to the pie chart. Pie chart directly uses the query binding.
ii) When a slice in the pie is clicked, I want to copy that slice's information into a cell (basically the drill-down functionality).
I wasn't able to achieve this functionality. I think the problem is the 'source data' field in the 'insertion' tab. I select 'Row' as my insertion type and I also select a destination. However, when it comes to selecting 'source data' I have nowhere to point to since my source data is the query (query binding is not an option here). So, since I have no real source data, I cannot drill down and copy the values to the destination cell.
The workaround is to copy the query data into excel first, but I don't that is an elegant solution. Is there any other way to achieve this?
Regards,
Guven.

Hello David,
You confirm that mapping the whole column would be an option, right?
Here is why I asked this question: Let's assume I have a dashboard that displays the types of encounters in a hospital. Some examples of encounter types are: emergency, elective, newborn, etc... Currently, in the database, there is data for these 3 types. So, the dashboard contains a pie chart and each slice corresponds to the number of visits by patients for this encounter type (e.g. 450 emergency encounters, 9900 elective encounters and 32 newborn encounters).
Tomorrow, a new encounter type could take place in the hospital and this of course has to be reflected in the dashboard. If I make the assumption that there are only 3 encounter types, then the dasboard would be missing information. So, in this case, should I be mapping the whole column to the pie chart?
Regards,
Guven.

Crystal report reverts back to saved data after drill down

Hi,
I've created a crystal report and published it to BOE. Whenever I open the report and refresh it, it fetches recent data without any problem. But when I drill down in the report, it shows the saved data instead of showing the recent data in the drill down. If I come back to original report from that drill down again it reverts back to saved data. Again I've to refresh the report to view the recent data.
Any idea how can I fix this?
Regards,
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay,
Please do post this question in the BusinessObjects Enterprise thread BI Platform

Hope this helps.

Delete frozen data in drill down report

hi guys,
does any one know how to delete the frozen data in a drill down report?
thanks

Hi HariKan,
Based on my understanding, you create a drilldown report, when you click the plus button to expand the subreport, some rows doesn’t have data. You want to only display those rows which contain data.
In your scenario, you should specify the query in where clause to eliminate blank data rows within the subreport. Then use this report as subreport on main report, then create a toggle button. Please refer to the steps:
1. Go to the subreport, specify the query like below:
2. Back to the drill down report, create a subreport control and use the changed report as subreport, then specify the Visibility option like below and preview the report.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Issue to drill down from a report

Hi,
Our requirement is we need to show three different graphs in a single report representing different data, from that we need to drill down to a new different report ;
Two approaches we tried with crystal report are;
1. We put three graphs and the table in the single report and tried to implement drill down for each graph. We could group data on the basis of first pie chart data and could drill down. But while we tried to group data for second bar chart grouping is happening only as a sub group of first group. Ie, we cannot group data independently for different charts.
2. In the second approach we created different 3 sub reports and added in to a main report. But Crystal report is not supporting sub report to a sub report. Ie, we cannot go to drill down report.
It would be a great help, if you could suggest some solution.
Thanks,
Jomy

Hi,
As per my understanding, you have one report say Parent1 (SA1) and one Report say Child1 (SA2), now you want to pass some values from parent1 to child1.
1> Create 1 interim report from parent1.
2> In your Child report in filter part use result based on another analysis.
Please let me know if it resolves yourissues.
Thanks

Drill down tab won't print in CR10 viewer

We are developing in CR 10 and our ERP system uses the CR 10 viewer to display reports to our users.
I have several reports that display a summary on the main page with the option to drill down for more details. The data is grouped, and the detail section is hidden unless the user drills down.
When our users try to print the data on the drill down tab in the viewer, the Preview tab prints instead. I have verified that the drill down tab is active at the time of printing, and still no luck. The weird part is that I can open the report up in the designer software, and it prints correctly. As a workaround, we are having the users export the data to Excel and print from there, but we have some executives who are not quite computer literate and do not like going through all these steps to print something out. So my questions are:
1) Is my report improperly designed to allow this functionality?
2) I have the option to upgrade to CR XI. Would that fix the problem?
3) Are there other design choices I should consider that would provide similar functionalty?

I don't have the answer to your problem but I can tell you what happens from our application.
If I drill down on a report using the crystal viewer, whilst viewing the drilldown report I have 3 possible print options.
1) File > Print ( this prints the main report )
2) A print icon we have added to our application (also prints the main report).
3) A print icon on the viewer itself ( this prints the drilldown report)
So my only question/suggestion is can you also see a print icon on the viewer header itself. If not you may need to make some alteration in the code to display this if it is a property you can change.
This isn't something I get involved in, but someone else reading this may know.
Good luck
Richard

Passing Filter criteria parameters to drill-down reports

Hi,
I have a scenario, where my base report prompts a filter criteria for date range (from & to date) based on this criteria, I populate my base report with data's.
Suppose if i have a drill-down, can i make use of the filter criteria value selected in the base report and pass the same value to my next-level drill-down report as criteria.
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
My environment details are provided below.
BAM (11.1.1.3)
Report: Summary crosstab
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK

Hi pypawar,
Thanx for ur reply.
We are not using heirarchical drilling in our case, we are using another report for drill-down.
I will give some more background for this issue.
We have a scenario where we used the date filter for getting the from and to dates based on which we display our Master report (cross-tab).
Further, when drilling down from the master report to child report(which uses the same dataobject as master); we are not able to pass the dates input that were provided in master report as filter criteria.
While assigning parameters in the drill-down for the child report, we are not able to find an option to pass the date value selected in the master report to child report for filter criteria.
In an alternate approach, what we did to resolve the above issue was to pass the primary key fields of the data object while drill-down. But while passing primary keys, we realised there are cases where large number of values are getting passed as filter criteria to child reports and in some case it fails since there large number values getting passed as filter criteria.(in our case the chance of this value could be few 100's to 1000's). You can find details for this error in CACHEEXCEPTION during drill-down in BAM reports
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK

Web Intelligate Summer Report drill down and drill up problem

I use summary table and @aggreage_aware function to design a universy. I want WI report shows highest level summary table data first, then drill down to next high summary table data. But when I drill up back, it still shows be next high summary table data. I don't use the report to do any calculations. I just want it shows different level data.
Detail:
I have three tables:
1. Month_Data table: - Base fact data table.
Year
Quarter
Month
Department ID
Supplier ID
Score          -- Measure type
2. Quarter_Data table: - High level summary table.
Year
Quarter
Department ID
Supplier ID
Score          -- Measure type
3. Year_Data table: - Highest level summary table.
Year
Department ID
Supplier ID
Score          -- Measure type
I like to create a web intelligence report that shows data from year_data table:
Year          Score
2008          105
2007          99
2006          90
If I drill one level down, It will show data from quarter_data table:
Year (example 2007)
Quarter1     Score
Quarter2     Score
Quarter3     Score
Quarter4     Score
If two level drill down, it will show data from month_data table:
Quarter1
     Month1          Score
     Month2          Score
     u2026
     Month12                     Score.
No calculation needed on the report.
I will use follow steps to create a universe:
1. Three tables will be three classes. The classes order is:
     Year_Data class; Quarter_Data class; Month_Data class.
2. When I create universe, I join:
Year_Data class to   Quarter_data class:
Year to year                1 to n
Department ID to Department ID          1 to n
Supplier ID to Supplier ID          1 to n
Quarter_Data class to Month_Data class:
Year to Year               1 to n
Quarter to quarter               1 to n
Department ID to Department ID          1 to n
Supplier ID to Supplier ID          1 to n
3. Create a filter class with object Department ID and supplier ID.
4. I create two aggregate aware classes:
Agg_dimension class:
     Year:    aggregate_aware(year_data.year, quarter_data.year, month_data.year)
     quarter: aggregate_aware(quarter_data.quarter, month_data.quarter)
     Month:     aggregate_aware(month_data.month);
Agg_Measure class:
     Score: aggregate_aware(year_data.score, quarter_data.score, month_data.score)
5. I may re-define year, quarter, month and score as aggregate_aware function for objects in all classes:
     Year:     aggregate_aware(year_data.year, quarter_data.year, month_data.year)
     quarter: aggregate_aware(quarter_data.quarter, month_data.quarter)
     Month:     aggregate_aware(month_data.month);
     Score:   aggregate_aware(year_data.score, quarter_data.score, month_data.score)
6. create user hierarchies:
agg_dimension.Year
agg_dimension.quarter
agg_dimension.month
7. Figure out Aggregate Navigation -- it is easy.
Then create a report. I put follow objects on report:
Agg_dimension.year          agg_measure.score
When I run report, it shows right data:
Year_data.year          Year_data.score
On the report. I drill down on year, it shows right data.
Quarter_data.Year:
Quarter_data.quarter1                quarter_data.score
Quarter_data.quarter2                quarter_data.score
Quarter_data.quarter3                quarter_data.score
Quarter_data.quarter4                quarter_data.score
But when drill it up back on quarter, it shows:
Quarter_data.year     quarter_data.score1
Quarter_data.year     quarter_data.score2
Quarter_data.year     quarter_data.score3
Quarter_data.year     quarter_data.score4
Not
Agg_data.year          agg_data.score.
It has drill up back problem on my report.
Please help.
Thanks
