Double Column In OBIEE 11.1.1.6

In OBIEE 11.1.1.6, there is new feature named 'Double Column', I want to chech whether Double Column is Descriptor ID Column in RPD.
Additionally, I make use of 'Select by Code Column' and 'Filter by Code Column' , I do not view any difference.
NOTE: If I use 'Select by Code Column', the dashboard report will be showed no result.
For example:
Filter :10002 - FunPod
Result : No data
Why?

Hi,
Its working fine.double check it your code selection type.
I make use of 'Select by Code Column' and 'Filter by Code Column' , I do not view any difference.?
Refer the main difference,
1) Filter by Code Column
It specifies whether the column is to be filtered by code values or display values.
when you select check box "Filter by Code Column" then it will filter by code values and if you deselected the "Filter by Code Column" check box then the filte r by dispaly value.
2)Select by Code Column:
If you selected check box, then is displays both the code values and the display values (for example, 1 - Dell)Note:selection and the Filter by box is selected but disabled in analysis.
If you deselected check box then it will show only the display values (for example, Dell)
Thanks

  • OBIEE-11g Double columns question

    Hi guys, on my pc i've installed business intelligence suite 11.1.3 and now I need support about double columns feature. In the business model I've this hierarchy
    Region -> Province -> Municipality
    where the keys for each level are represented by the name of the element, the problem is that this keys are used to map geometric shapes to enable the map views features and the Municipality values are ambiguous in their domain (could exist two municipality with the same name but different province) in the official documentation is wrote that to unique identify a shape should be used a double columns field but when I 'apply the double field feature to the hierarchy levels the drill feature doesn't work properly and I get a strange filter error (seems that the system filter the value by id on the wrong field). Somebody could help me to understand if I can define a hierarchy where the keys have a descriptor id associated ?
    Thanks a lot Regards

    I 've also come up with the same issue. I am using OBIEE 11G (11.1.1.5.0) and Oracle Mapviewer Ver11_1_1_4_B110225.
    On the RPD, My hierarchy is defined as: District -> Quarter -> Neighbourhood.
    For each hierarchy level I am using:
    District Logical Level keys:
    District Id: Primary Key
    District Name: Use for Display
    Quarter Logical Level Keys:
    Quarter Id: Primary Key
    Quarter Name: Use for Display
    Neighbourhood Logical Level Keys:
    Neighbourhood Id: Primary Key
    Neighbourhood Name: Use for Display
    I need to associate each Mapviewer theme's ID (District ID, Quarter ID, Neighbourhood ID) with a relevant BI column, because the theme names are not distinct.
    I have set the double column (Descriptor Id) feature: (District ID, Quarter ID, Neighbourhood ID) on each BI name column (BI Distict Name, BI Quarter Name, BI
    Neighbourhood Name) of the business model and associated the layer key (ID) of each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI name column.
    On the map view, drilling down from District to Quarter works properly, but I get the following action error while drilling down from quarter to neighbourhood:
    An error occurred while trying to generate drill down query.
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError:
    46036] Internal Assertion: Condition rowValues.size() == numColumns, file server\Query\Src\SQNavigatorAccess.cpp, line 495. (HY000)
    SQL Issued: {CALL NQSGenerateDrillDownQuery('SELECT District Name saw_0, Quarter Name saw_1, DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(District Name) saw_2, DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(Quarter Name)
    saw_3 FROM "Subject Area" WHERE DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(District) = 5','1','''5'',''31'',31','-1 -1 -1 -1 -1','0,2,3')}
    However, if I add a table view on my analysis and click on the table view's quarter link, drilling down works ok both for the table and for the map view.
    Moreover, I tried removing the double column (descriptor Id) feature from the business model while maintaining the hierarchy as described above.
    I then associated the layer key (ID) of each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI ID column instead of the BI name column.
    On the map view while drilling down from District to Quarter, a filter to a specific District is applied, but the associated Quarters theme is not displayed.
    Finally, if I enable the "Use for Display" checkbox for each hierarchy level's primary key on the RPD, and maintain the association between the layer key (ID) of
    each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI ID column, drilling down works correctly but only on the ID.
    I need drilling down to work while clicking on the each name BI column of the hierarchy while defining the association on the layer key ID of each mapviewer
    theme. Is this possible? Any ideas?

  • OBIEE 11G - Double column (Descriptor Id)

    Hello All,
    I have a problem in implementing Descriptor ID functionality. I have a time dimension, for which i am using Year, Period Name and Period Number.
    I have placed Period Number as Period Name ID column and in the report i am using the period Number to be filtered out. I created a dashboard prompt with Year and Period with limit values on Period Name.
    After selecting the year, when i select the period, its getting the months only for that selected year, its fine. once I click on apply, the period prompt is changing to another value but report filtering is fine.
    for Ex: Selected Year is 2012 and for that i got all the periods from Jan-12 to Dec -12. When i Select Mar-12 and click on Apply, the report is filtering for Mar-12 but, I prompt value is changed to Mar-14 (why 14 is because i have records in time dimension till 2014) .
    I verified the log, and see that... year is not passing for period as i have year and period filters report is fine. but after population
    SELECT DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("<table>"."Fiscal Period") saw_0, "Time"."Fiscal Period" saw_1 FROM "<Subject Area>" WHERE DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("<SA>"."Time"."Fiscal Period") = 8 ORDER BY saw_0, saw_1
    I am using OBI 11.1.1.5 version
    Any help is gr8ly appreciated..
    Thanks in Advance...

  • How to place one column under another column in obiee report?

    Hi all,
    I am new to obiee, so need some help from obiee experts. Can anyone tell me how to place one column data under another column in obiee report?
    i need the report to be as below
    category total_students Course_enrollment Test_attended pass_test
    total N % N % N %
    all students ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    Ethnicity
    Asian ###### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    African American ###### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    white ######
    Filipino ######
    Gender
    Male ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    Female ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    and similarly for other columns
    where ethnicity, gender are columns in the table and Course_enrollment, Test_attended, pass_test are calculated columns.
    Please help me to create a report as above if anyone knows how to do it.
    Edited by: Shailaja on Jul 19, 2010 12:23 AM

    Two ideas I can think of:
    1) Create multiple pivot tables and then display them one under the other
    2) Create multiple measure columns such as "male_amt", "female_amt", "white_amt", "asian_amt", "black_amt", etc. for all the columns you need. Then you could simple stack them in a single pivot table.
    Option #2 might give you the prettiest results - but also requires a lot more maintenance (for instance, if you reclassify ethnic groups, you'd have to go through the reports to add additional metric columns).
    Hope this helps,

  • How to add two columns in OBIEE report?

    Hi to All,
    Can anyone tell me how to add two columns in OBIEE report and get that result in a new column?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Thenmozhi

    Assume you already have two columns SalesAmt1 and SalesAmt2, and you want to derive 3rd column say SalesAmt3 which would be the sum of SalesAmt1 and SalesAmt2.
    For this, as I mentioned above pull SalesAmt1 and SalesAmt2 columns in Report. Now pull another column (say SalesAmt1) and open the fx. Clear the contents of fx. Now locate the columns button in the bottom of the fx. From Here, first select SalesAmt1 and + sign and the select SalesAmt2.
    Now in this new column, the fx should look like SalesAmt1 + SalesAmt2.
    Let me know if you are looking for something else.
    Thanks

  • Removing drag functionality of column in OBIEE 11g

    Hi all,
    Can any one say me how to remove the draging functionality for the columns in OBIEE 11g ? It is creating an issue for me when i hide the columns in pivot and has only rows over there. It is creating one more layer on the top of the measures.
    Thanks for your help.

    Fightclub,
    Edit the Pivot view and goto Row section -> Row Properties -> Option - Uncheck the Display Heading.
    But you'll loose your columns heading of rows.

  • View of tables with double column names

    Hello,
    my problem is that in my database schema the name of the primary-key-column in one table has the same name as the corresponding foreign key-column in another table. Now i want to create a view of those two tables and get an error (double column names).
    Is there any chance to avoid this error without rename all my column names (cause this happens many many times)?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi,
    In SQL you cas prefix the column with its data container. Use this and it'll be OK. This is not an error, it's expected and absolutely normal behaviour.
    SQL> desc dual
    Name                                                                                                  Null?    Type
    DUMMY                                                                                                          VARCHAR2(1)
    SQL> select D1.DUMMY, D2.DUMMY
      2  FROM DUAL D1, DUAL D2
      3  WHERE D1.DUMMY = D2.DUMMY;

  • Peoplesoft Trees as Hierarchial Columns in OBIEE 11g

    Sorry for a duplicate posting. Logged in as a normal user with random number. I know how much people hate it. Logged in as myself now.
    Hi,
    I have extensively searched using Google or 11g docs but could not find a proper solution to using Peoplesoft trees in form of hierarchial columns in obiee 11g. Can the rpd of obiee 11g be designed to view the Peoplesoft tree structure( as it is in Tree manager in Pplsoft) as hierachial columns in obiee 11g? I am sure hierarchial columns as a 11g feature are not just for visual representation in tree format but also can be viewed in Answers and queried against it,am I right?
    Anybody who has worked on trees and OBIEE 11g hierarchial columns? Ahsan/Navin??
    Thanks,
    Dan

    I have not used the 11g hierarchical columns for PSoft Trees but I can think of a glaring reason NOT to do this..PERFORMANCE. If I understand correctly, 11g issues a group by and Union as you traverse this type of structure and PeopleSoft trees have a number of tables to represent the actual TREE. I cannot possibly see how this can be effective especially with a large scale BI Apps DW? This is part of the reason the trees get flattened out via the OOTB ETL adaptors for PSoft.

  • Stop a dimensional drill for a particular value of a column in obiee 11g

    Hi,
    I have dimensional drill been setup for Supervisor Hierarchy Table.I need to stop the dimensional drill for a particular value of the column in obiee 11g.
    Example: I have two columns
    1.Supervisor Level 1 Name
    2.Supervisor Level 2 Name
    Supervisor Level 1 Name Columns have these values.(Ram,Higher,Sam)
    Supervisor Level 2 Name Columns have these values.(Ravi,Higher,Raghul).
    If we pull Supervisor Level 1 Name Column in report which has a dimensional drill(It will navigate to Supervisor Level 2 Name).It will show
    1.Ram
    2.Higher
    3.Sam
    I should not drill on Higher value but the rest of the values(Sam and Ram will drill to Supervisor Level 2 Name) should be drillable.The same should happen for Supervisor Level 2 Name.
    Please Suggest.
    Thanks,
    Azim

    Don't think you can actually get this working

  • How to reset tool box to double column in Elements 9

    I had the double column but lost both the single and double columns. I was able to get the single column back but it is not showing
    the indicators at the top of the tool box to switch from a single column to the double column.

    Click the double arrows to shorten it to two columns, but the toolbox always floats on top of the image. You can move it anywhere on your desktop where it's out of the way, or press the tab key if you want to hide it temporarily. Tab again to bring it back. Some versions of PSE don't actually shorten the tools panel when you go to two columns--you just get a lot of empty gray space and it stays the same length. No cure for that, I'm afraid.

  • Can't display a URL web applet in Double Column

    I've created a URL web applet which displays in the Opportunities homepage. The problem is that the web applet do not displays in double Column, it is only displayed in single column, therefore I only see the half of the applet.
    When I go to Administration/ Application Customization / Opportunities / Web Applets... and change from Single Column to Double and save, it still appears in single column. If I go back to edit the web applet it says : Single column. I don't get it, everytime I change from single to double, CRM OD does not save the changes.
    Does anyone knows a solution?

    hi,
    i have the same problem. Did you solve it?. Please let me know...

  • Table Storage: double column

    while saving the value in a column (double datatype) it is not getting saved correctly. e.g. while saving 3.23, it is storing the value as 3.229999999. Could you please help to identify the issue?

    Hi,
    I test this on my side, save 3.23 to a double column, everything goes as expect, this value doesn't change at all, I suggest you set a breakpoint to debug your application, check the entity before execute insert operation.
