hi there,
I have a problem viewing the OLAP cube in excel
with OracleBI add on i see the hierarcy gone for a toss,
when i view with ROLAP in enterprise manager 9.6 it seems to be fine.
i have the dimension table structure as follows

hierarcy as
TYPE
FLAG
COUNTRY
STATE
CITY
OPERATOR
my data as follows

In the Level "TYPE" there are two categories National and International
but when i view the data only one category is shown i,e national and category international
is shown at the lowest level without any children. i.e at "OPERATOR" LEVEL.
All children of International is pusshed to National
i.e
type, flag, country, state, city, operator
National,Landline,Vanuatu,Vanuatu,Vanuatu,Landline
National,Landline,Vatican,Vatican,Vatican,Landline
------------------------------------------International
Is there any other way to do this, I have not declared any attributes for the above dimension.
Kindly help

Answer 1

You probably have same values in different levels. e.g Vatican in Country, State Level as well as City Level.
OLAP requires that each level should have a unique ID. It always go by the values rather than the logical levels. Try to create a unique level id for each level, and put the names in long and short descriptions. That should solve your problem.
Hope this helps.
