Display custom messages in Writeback Reports OBIEE 11g

Is there any way i can display a custom message when user enter the wrong data(conditions).I am using OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1.
Anyone please help me out here.
Thanks,
prassu

I dont think so...
after inserting date in db table try to show it up based on your validations there itself it can be a report or so..
if not you need to have something like html+JavaScript etc.. altogether it is complex

 IF i_step = 1.
 <check for condition -- if successful, variable flag = 1, else variable flag = 0>
 IF flag = 0.
 MESSAGE e157(00). "Error Message

I have upgraded my system to BI 7.0 now. Whenever the variable check is not successful, it displays a blank screen instead of the error message in the report. Please advice if we need to change the code and how ??

How to provide custom messages while viewing reports in obiee.

Hi,
I would like to show some custom message in all Dashboards. For instance when a user logs into the Dashboard, the report would take long time to get processed. So what to do so that we could provide custom message stating that.."Please select the required parameters..." or something else.. After selecting the necessary prompts, he would get what he wants..Is there some option in OBIEE where we can place mentioned messages.Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Ajay

One thing
You set default value which is not a database value... like Select Prompt Value something like this...
You set this kind of text as default value for all dashboard prompts.
So, when you click first time dashboard, it runs but leads to get No Results.
Here you can select prompt values and can run reports..
Or else
see this..
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/17/oracle-bi-101332-selecting-reports-from-dashboard-prompts-and-guided-navigation-sections/
Use this logic and in writing SQL for prompt, write a custom message that you want to write and then the report name while doing union.
like (let's say your report name is: "Rgn Dlrs")
select case when 1=0 then Markets.region else 'Select Prompt values and Report' end from paint
union all
select case when 1=0 then Markets.region else 'Rgn Dlrs' end from paint
now implement the guided navigation for section and try....

Hi
Thanks for your quick response.
actually im not using EBS, im just using publisher with OBIEE 11g.
if explain step by step what you wrote first replay-
Let i have a table with one BLOB column.
1) first load blob data to my table
2) create data model from oracle publisher.
3) change the xdm file with above tagline , my xdm file is in below link-
C:\mw_bi_home\instances\instance1\bifoundation\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\catalog\SampleAppLite\root\shared\zia%2exdm
i don't know is that right step? because if i re-open the xdm file after change by your given tagline its shows error.
I will grateful to you please give me a little explanation which file i can put the following tagline.
_<fo:instream-foreign-object content-type="image/jpg"><xsl:value-of select=".//IMAGE_ELEMENT"/></fo:instream-foreign-object>_
Thanks again and waiting your feedback -

How to handle ADF_FACES Errors/Exceptions and display customized message.

Hi All,
My question here is, 
Is there any way to handle the validation/PPR kind of run time exceptions/errors. I have tried to handle these errors by extending the lifecycle and overridden the reportErrors method. But this method is being called in the PREPARE_RENDER phase. But the exception is happening in the JSF_PROCESS_VALIDATIONS phase. I have tried to handle the exceptions in the custom PagePhaseListener. But these exceptions could not be handled in the custom PagePhaseListener.
I would like to display a customized message to the user instead of displaying the PPR exception.
The details are given below.
I have a use case related to the security like if there is a drop down list in a page. Drop down list is having a af:validateRegExp component which allows only alphabets. Dropdown is populating alphanumeric values.
One option is selected in the drop down list and submitted the value with the help of the commondbutton.
With the help of some tools, we modified the submitted value(index of the list submitted) to some alphabets.
Its throwing some validation exception. Some of the statements are given below.
<UIXRegion> <_warn> Error processing viewId: /Validate_TF/validate URI: /validate.jsff actual-URI: /validate.jsff.
java.lang.NumberFormatException: ADF_FACES-60034:SelectOne could not convert index 0asd
<LifecycleImpl> <_handleException> ADF_FACES-60098:Faces lifecycle receives unhandled exceptions in phase PROCESS_VALIDATIONS 3
<RegistrationConfigurator> <handleError> ADF_FACES-60096:Server Exception during PPR
displaying a popup dialog with error message like:
ADF_FACES_60034:could not convert index
ADF_FACES_60097:server exception
ADF_FACES_60096: some exception occurred during PPR,
I don't want to show these kind of messages to user. Please suggest me whether is it possible or not.
Thanks in advance.

Issue with Writeback in OBIEE 11g

Hello,
I have a created writeback report and it is working fine as of now .Now I changed the writeback template to use stored procedure to update the data.When I am trying to update integer columns it is working fine but when I try to update varchar columns it is giving the error instantly without generating the log.
"An error occurred while writing to the server. Please check to make sure you have entered appropriate values. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator."
When I try to update the procedure in DB ,it is working as expected. Can anyone tell me what is way I can troubleshoot the issue?
Thanks,
Prasanna

Hi Prasanna,
Can you try paasing the varchar values with single quote.

Issue while exporting report - OBIEE 11g - IIS 7.5

Hi,
We are currently on OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0 version of OBIEE and we have set up proxy through IIS 7.5 on Windows 2008 R2 server.
While exporting our reports, we need to ensure that both Export to excel options (2003 and 2007+) are working fine. However, for some reports, when we try to download the reports to Excel 2007+ format, we get a "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" error message. This issue does not appear if we change the URL to directly access Weblogic server (instead of routing through IIS). Wanted to know if anyone have faced similar issue and have found any solution/workaround for same.
Thanks
Hyder

Hyder,
I have achieved this.We have deployed our OBIEE application on Weblogic server not on IIS.

Constraining writeback values (OBIEE 11g)

Hi, have a quick question. For a very simple OBIEE write back application, we'd like to collect some high level category info and a text description from end users. For the text description it will be completely free form, but for the category info, I'd like to constrain the writeback field so that the end users can only enter a valid value from a list of 10 or so categories.
Is this possible to do? Would be really great if for the category column, instead of showing a text box, if it could be a dropdown constrained to the values we want....but no clue if that's possible.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!

The crux of my issue is that I'd really prefer to have users pick from a list of predefined values vs. just keying in anything in a free form text field. I can definitely validate stuff on the database side...but if it kicks back as an "invalid value" then I have to throw error messages, not do the update, etc. I'd much prefer if there was a simple way to constrain the user to only allow them to choose (for example, from a dropdown) valid values.
Thanks,
ScottI dont have a solution for this but just wanted to share some thoughts. This functionality you are trying to build is pretty easy if you are building a jspx page using Jdeveloper via ADF. With the limitations of OBIEE's write back capabilities, you might want to take a look at the advantage of the action frame work which can be used to integrate OBIEE reports with external jspx page to pass values from columns etc which can inturn be passed into the SQL that would run behind the scene's of the jsp page, and you can build all the writeback functionalities you need there.
We have implemented similar solution for a requirement, and taking the writeback functionality to an external page had opened us so many possibilities.
I know this might require a resource that can build stuff like this in Jdeveloper, but IMHO it's not that hard to learn. Oracle has pretty detailed material which should get you through building something like this if you decided to.

Warning message in 'Writeback Report'

Hi,
I have to enable writeback on a report and to prompt a warning message to user before submitting the changes.
I am fine with enabling the writeback on the report and update the changes through writeback XML.
But, I am not sure of this 'Warning Message' in a separate window as prompt to confirm the changes made by user before submitting.
Can somebody please help me if you have implemented this?
Thanks,
Viswanath

Dear Madhu,
You are not using LS_HEADER statically that you have defined in the program. You will get a warning message since you have defined a field that you have not referenced statically.
Are you using this field dynamically? You can delete/comment the code if you are not using it statically and dynamically.

Shailja,
Yes you can. Follow these steps:
1> Create the LOV (which you can create from another table, as you mention). and test it.
2> Now you create one ADF Table on the page.
3> Select the Table in staructure window > select af:column(the column where you want put you lov) > Inside the af:column, Replace the Uicomponent by the LOV(which you created in step-1)
4> Save & Run

Presentation Variable value to Drill report OBIEE 11g

Hi ,
We have a requirement to use Parent report prompt value in the drill report. So we have used presentation variable to pass the value.
Issue is when we go to drill report its not showing actual presentation variable value, its giving some other value( eg: we have two values to be passed to presentation variable 'Yes' and 'No' , even though we have selected 'Yes' in the prompt the drill report is showing results for 'No' but when we refresh the drill report its showing exactly as prompt selection.)
And we are using Advanced Sql filter to filter the records .
In 10g it has worked fine but in 11g we are having the issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Raju

Fyi.. We are using action links for drill down.

Display Customized message if App Server Down

Hi Buddies !!!
Currently I am working on an entripse application that runs on Websphere App Server.
I have to display an error page with some msg when the user hits the URL but Websphere has not started. To be more specific my app server is shut down.
Thanks

I think he wants a custom error.html or something. I hope he doesn't mean he wants them when the web-server is down as well (people can be stupid, I know... ).
