Different elements of different levels of hierarchy

Hi experts,
I have a question about hierarchies obiee 11g.
I need to do a table that contains (plain text, without '+' to drill-down) different elements of different levels of hierarchy
I have a hierarchy Account like this:
Level1
-----Level2
-------Element1Level2
-------Element2Level2
------------Level3
--------------Element1Level3
-------Element3Level2
My assignment is to do a table like this
Level1---------------
Element2Level2--
Element1Level3--
Element3Level2--
So I don't want to drill-down on Element2Level2 to see Elements of Level3...
How can I achieve this??
Thanks!

If I a not wrong, you basically want to flatten out a hierarchy. You should be able to do it using the Parent-child hierarchy concept newly introduced in OBIEE 11g where the RPD generates the DDL and DML for you, but you might have to build out an intermediate table to source the final flattened hierarchy table. Refer to this link which has a great example. ( http://prasadmadhasi.com/2011/11/15/hierarchies-parent-child-hierarchy-in-obiee-11g/ )

Extract Data in Power Pivot from MDX with diffrentnt different Level of Hierarchy in MDX

Hi All,
My requirement is to extract the data form tabular model and put in power pivot,as all the measures calculation is present in model just extracting the aggregated data.
Issue is appearing on Rolling up the data, so is there any way to extract the data so that it will display the right data on different level. As per the below example on level 2 data is getting summed up which is not correct.
Ex:-
Level1
A
10%
B
20%
Level2
30%
Thanks Chandan

Hi Chandan,
According to your description, you create a SQL Server Analysis Services Tabular model and extract Data in Power Pivot from MDX, the problem is that the hierarchy data rolling up base on the hierarchy level, right?
I have tested it on my local environment, we cannot reproduce this issue. So as per my understanding, the issue can be cause by the hierarchy setting in your tabular model. Here are some links about how to create and manage hierarchies in a tabular model,
please refer to the links and check if the settings are correct.

Show data from different levels of hierarchy in a report

Hi,
We have to show Budget Vs Actual for sales. We have multiprovider on two cubes (Plan & Actual).
We want to report using Customer Hierarchy.
Customer hierarchy is like -
Level 1
---> Level 2
> Level 3
> Level 4
> Customer1
> Customer2
> Customer3
> Customer4
Actual data is avbl at Customer but Budget is at avbl only upto Level1 or 2 .
Budget Infocube structure
Level1 Level2 Material Calmonth Sales QTy
Actual Infocube structure
Customer Calmonth Material Sales Qty
So how to create a BEx query so that I can show Budget Vs Actual for avaialble data?
If I drill down uptp Level2 it will show Budget Vs Actual and for further drill downs only actual data.
Thanks,
Vikram.

Display different level for same hierarchy value in BO 4.0

Hi Expert,
I have one question for Webi for BO 4.0
We have one hierarchy in BW side and we hope to display differet level in same report for different column
For example, column A is for level 6. column B is for level 7.
Do you know how to releaze this in Webi side?
In the 3.X version, we have different dimension for different level.
But now in BO 4, it has been combined into one\
Thanks and best regards

Hi,
You can still do this in BI 4.0, if you use the old 'legacy' MDX OLAP.unv from Universe Designer tool .
Yes, with the BICS connection, you are getting a native hierarchy, as it would be displayed in an OLAP environment.

Displaying different levels of the same hierarchy in the different columns

I have a parent child hierarchy and wish to display different levels of the hierarchy in different columns of the resultset eg
level 1 level 2
Europe UK
Europe France
N America US
N America Canada
However writing MDX like the below
select
{} on 0,
([Geo].[level 1],[Geo].Level 2] on 1
from cube
results in the error "The [Geo] hierarchy is used more than once in the crossjoin
How can I get around this??

Hi,
You can make use of CrossJoin function in MDX, I give a sample MDX based on the AdventureWorks database:
select {[Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]} on 0,
crossjoin({[Sales Territory].[Sales Territory Group].[Sales Territory Group].members},{[Sales Territory].[Sales Territory Country].[Sales Territory Country].members}) on 1
from [Adventure Works]
After execut the MDX you will get the result like this:
Reseller Sales Amount
Europe
France
$4,607,537.94
Europe
Germany
$1,983,988.04
Europe
United Kingdom
$4,279,008.83
NA
NA
(null)
North America
Canada
$14,377,925.60
North America
United States
$53,607,801.21
Pacific
Australia
$1,594,335.38

Reporting at different levels in a Hierarchy

Hi,
How can I report at different levels within a hierarchy? Currently within SAP and BW I have levels 1 to 7, however currently I have to go through level 1 to see any information.
Please let me know, any help much appreciated
Thanks
Bhav

Hi Riccardo,
How can I create variables for selecting nodes of the hier?
I can bring in the hierarchy, but any variables i create only allow me to select different hierarchies.
What I am trying to do is create a report to run for level/ node 1 of 7 (the top level), this would allow users to expand if necessary and also another one that only has level/node 6 & 7, without levels/nodes 1-5.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Bhav

Use of BPMN diagrams on different levels (Business Process Architect 11gR1)

I have an issue regarding the representation of different levels of diagrams in BPA... I have been using following types of diagrams from the highest level to the lowest:
- Structuring model,
- Value-added chain diagram,
- Business process diagram (BPMN),
- Business process diagram (BPMN),
- Function allocation diagram (this is generated automatically).
Those levels are linked with use of "Assignment" function on individual elements and that enables the user to drill-down to the last level (except between Structuring model and Value-added chain diagram - I can't find a way to link those two).
As you might have noticed from the list of diagrams above, I have used two BPMN diagrams to represent two successive levels. Is this OK? On the first of those two diagram types, I represented activities with "Function" elements (I also used Start, Intermediate, End events and Rule elements).
I linked every "Function" element to a more detailed BPMN diagram on the next level. That one includes "Human task", "Automated activity" elements (and also Start, Intermediate, End events, Rule elements and also others) and is eventually meant to be transformed into BPEL.
That is how I understood the "Oracle_BPA_Suite_QuickStart_Sample_Guide.pdf" and samples included in Architect 11gR1. Is that the right way to do it? Does anybody have a better suggestion on how to represent the whole chain of diagrams?
How can "Assignees" be represented in the BPMN diagram, where I used "Function" elements? Is it possible to link "Structuring model" elements to Value-added chain diagrams?
I hope this describes my dilemma well enough and doesn't frighten you all away... I thank you all for your feedback in advance.

It is possible to assign Structural Elements to any Model Type in BPA. If you are not able to make this assignment it is not active in your Method Filter. You can log in with the Entire Method filter to check this out. You can also modify the filter you are using to include this ability.
The hierarchy you are using is fine and is a commonly used one. Some people use the EPC model, which is specifc to BPA and not a standard, at the level below the value-chain but many use BPMN as you have. If your intent is to use the first BPMN as a pure business process model then you may consider creating a separate custom Model Type, based on the BPMN model, with a scaled down set of allowable objects. This is also done through customizing the filter. If you do this you can also rename the model types in the filter if you wish to have different names at each level.
Note of caution, modifying a method filter can have impacts and should generally be done by someone with a working knowledge of the meta model. If you chosse to change a filter supplied with the tool, copy it and rename it, then update the copy. Always retain the original filter provided with the tool. If you are doing something as simple as adding the ability to use the assignment between Structural Elements and Value-Added Chain models, that would be no big deal. If you get into reusing object and model types that has more impact on the functionality of the tool.

OBIEE report from multiple facts at different levels

Currently we need to develop a report with columns from 3 different facts surrounded with conformed and non conformed dimensions at different levels.
After setting the hierarchial levels and putting the facts into single logical table with different sources OBIEE is generating 2 different queries and does a full outer join.
I would like to know how we can do a left outer join instead of full outer join between the 2 queries based on a common column?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Vinod,
The scenario provided in the link above doesnt match to my issue.
We need to develop a report from multiple fact tables at different levels with conformed & non conformed dimension columns.
I have 7 dimensions D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6 and D7 & two fact F1 and F2 tables.
F1 is tied to dimensions D1,D2,D3,D4,d5
F2 is tied to dimensions D3,D4,D5, D6 and D7.
In my report I have columns from D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, F1 and F2.
So OBIEE generates 2 queries with columns from D1,D2,D3,D4,d5 & F1 measure and another query with D3,D4,D5, D6, D7 and F2 measure.
and then does a cross fact join out of box between 2 queries.
But I need to do a left outer join between the 2 queries on a common column instead of cross fact join. I would like to know how we can achive this.
Thanks.

OBIEE Facts at different levels.

Hi,
I am bringing columns from three tables: Two facts and one Dimension table to create a OBIEE Report.
The fact tables Workforce Event Fact and Employee Daily Snap Fact are at different levels, but both of them have proper joins with Dimension Employee Dim.
When i am pulling columns from D1 and any one of these two facts, i am not facing any problem in seeing results. But when i bring columns from all of these three tables, i am getting this error,
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 15018] Incorrectly defined logical table source (for fact table Workforce Event Fact) does not contain mapping for [Employee Daily Snap Fact.Exempt Indicator]. (HY000)
Is there anything i have to do in Business Model layer to avoid this error. Many people suggesting to assign an aggregation level for these two facts. But i am not having any Dimensional Hierarchy defined.
Thanks
Swami

Hi swami,
Many people suggesting to assign an aggregation level for these two factsThis is a workaround i think where you need to create aggregate tables(not levels) and then use them for your purpose.(OR) you dint define the logical source table properly either correct it.
Another work around i could suggest is,take the 2 fact tables columns needed into one alias table and make it as fact and join this fact table to dimension table and you can get all columns.
Hope it helps you.
Best Wishes,
Kranthi.

Nesting of AGO or TODATE functions with differing level arguments is not supported

I have a column in BMM which calculates the Year-To-Date Sales. This function uses the ToDate function to caculate the YTD.
I need to develop another formula column which shows the last-year's YTD.
I develop this formula in BMM by AGO on the YTD column which already uses a ToDate function.
In BI Answers when selecting this column, results in the below message:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 22044] Nesting of AGO or TODATE functions with differing level arguments is not supported. (HY000)

To reply to my own question. It appears I got it working, that is, the error message problem is solved, but I still have questions on how to use these functions.
To get it to work, I added the primary key D_TIJD.TIJDKEY at the level of the lowest grain in my dimension (level tab).
What I still wonder is how to make it select the right values. I have the following hierarchy: bookyear - bookperiod - week. A bookperiod contains 4 or 5 weeks (4,4,5 in a quarter), so 12 periods in one year. I defined a measure at period level and another at that level with the ago function, that should return the figures for that same period of the year before. My first question is, whether to go back 12 periods or 52 weeks (which is the lowest grain in my dimension)?
The second question is how to use a combination of TODATE and AGO so that if I calculate the current period (of which only 2 weeks are passed), I also only want to include the same two weeks for that period one year ago in order to make a correct comparison. How do I do that???

Entering budget data on different levels

Dear experts,
I have a question concerning posting budget data on different levels in BCS. In Former Budgeting there was an automatic check for budget entry which was not allowing greater amounts on lower level commitment items than on higher levels.
Now with BCS there is not a hierarchical structure when entering budget data so you can enter a greater amount on subordinate commitment items than on superior ones.
Do you have an idea if the budget entered on the lowest level can be totaled up automatically to the higher levels of the hierarchy or consistency checks should be defined in order to control budget amounts on the different levels???
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
sappsm

Dear SAPPSM,
In the Budget Control System (BCS) there exists no hierarchical budget structure which would take into account some funds center hierarchy, for example.
This was standard function in Former (or Classical) Budgeting, but is not available in BCS only from EhP 603 on, you will be able to have multi-level budget structure but still in development phase.
As a consequence, when you enter budget, budget values are only created at the level of budget entry (for example, at the 3rd level). Furthermore, BCS does not provide functions like "Distribute budget"
or "Total up budget".
However, you can "simulate" a totalling up of budget values via reporting. For example, for Report Writer reports like FMRP_RW_BUDGET you can use funds center groups (FM menu, Master Data, Funds Center), created by transaction FM_SETS_FICTR1. You can use such funds center groups with the Report Writer reports, which then automatically sum up the budget values according to the funds center group.
BCS is a complete system with more possibilities than FB and you will be able to define strategy derivation for controling budget or posting address according to business process. Please check the documentation available in help.sap.com and in BCS node from SPRO configuration.
I hope I could help you
Kind Regards,
Vanessa.

Substract as an aggregation rule for different level in a DIM ?!

Hi there..
I'm building a BI model based on financial transactions (incomes, expenses, etc..)
and my main problem is how to substract a measure, where the aggregation rule is set to SUM, for different levels in the "Account" dimension?
Example:
I have the "Account" dimension with the following hierarchy:
Account_ID / Account_name / Account_type / Account_total
And, lets say, 2 rows in it:
1.row in the "Account" dimension:
account_ID : 100
account_name : "Marketing expense"
account_type : "Variable expenses"
account_total : "Total profit" (total income - total Expenses)
2. row in the "Account" dimension:
account_ID : 200
account_name : "Financial incomes"
account_type : "Total incomes"
account_total : "Total profit" (total income - total Expenses)
"Total profit"
"Tot. incomes" "Tot. Expenses"
"Finan. incomes" "Market. expenses"
The fact table has just one measure: "Amount" and, of course, some foreign keys:
Account_ID -> "Account" dim
Organization_ID -> "Organization" dim
Date -> "Date" dim
Amount
The measure "Amount" in the fact table is positive both for expenses and incomes.
Now, what I'm trying to do is to sum up that measure on my top level in the "Account" dim.
At that level my report in Answers should substract "Total expenses" from "Total incomes"!
How can I do that?
thanks..
Ivan

Sorry to pop the obvious question, but can't you model that nicely and put it into distinct columns?
If not, you can create derived measures on you fact using "case when" statements. One for the incomes with amount > 0 (or >=0 ...depends on where you want to have the 0's) and one for the expenses with amount < 0.
HTH,

Hierarchies - How can transaction data be spillited as per different levels

Hi,
Every One.
I have issue splliting data in diffrent leves of hierarchy,how it can be resolved!
In detail,if i say
We are getting all transaction and master data in flat file.
Master Data is in the format- Global Parent ID,Global ID,Local ID,Company ID
Transaction Data in the format as givn below-
Local ID,Company Id,Total Spend.
To get the drill down facility,we have added hierarchy as- Global Parent ID->Global ID->Local ID->Company ID
It is not spilliting in different levels,say total spend is fixedin Local ID,Global ID and Parent ID.
if we have total spend 500 in some company(say ABCL),its every where same.So the purpose of drill down is not resolved.
Say spend 500 shd be splitted in different Local ID,then In different Global ID and in every level,finalll giving overall total.
Any suggesstions!
Its high priority issue.

If I understand the description and the query correctly, you are joining the budget with monthly values with the view that has daily values. This means that you get one row in the budget for each row in the daily data. So when you sum, you count the same
month many times...
Thus, you need to aggregate before the join, as in this example:
WITH oms_values AS (
   SELECT Marknad, Distrikt,
SUM(CASE WHEN convert(char(6), [Posting Date], 112) <=
convert(char(6), Getdate(), 112)
THEN [CY LC]*-1
ELSE 0
   END) AS "CYLC",
SUM(CASE WHEN convert(char(6), [Posting Date], 112) <=
convert(char(6), Getdate(), 112)
THEN [CY-1 LC]*-1
ELSE 0
   END) AS "CY1LC"
FROM Vy_omsattning_per_marknad_och_distrikt
WHERE [PostingDate] > convert(char(4), getdate(), 112) + '0101'
GROUP BY Marknad, Distrikt
), budget_values AS (
   SELECT Marknad, Distrikt,
SUM(CASE WHEN Period <= convert(char(6), Getdate(), 112)
THEN [Budget_LC]
ELSE 0
   END) AS "BUDGET"
   FROM   ManadsBudget
   WHERE Period >= convert(char(4), getdate(), 112) + '01'
   GROUP BY Marknad, Distrikt
SELECT oms.Marknad, oms.Distrikt, cms.CYLC, oms.CY1LC, mb.BUDGET
FROM   oms_values as oms
JOIN   ManadsBudget as mb ON mb.Marknad=oms.Marknad
   AND mb.Distrikt=oms.Distrikt
I had to guess what's in the Period column in the Budget table. I'm assuming that it is on the form YYYYMM.
Note that I have changed the way you filter on the date columns. Converting to format 112 is often very powerful and helps to make the code shorter. And for the WHERE clause, this means better odds that any index will be used.
