Drill down and Drill up

hi,
I need to explain to a team, how drill down works. I mean, what are all the properties that I should set for an infoobject to do drill down and drill up on it.
also, the purpose of hierarchies is drill down? I didnt understand.
thanks.

The drilldown and drillup feature is set and achieved in the report by designing in the query designer.
In the Query Designer if you push a characteristic in "Free Characteristic" then details for this characteristic won't appear in the report.To see the details for these characteristic you have to drill down the original report.
For Example you have 2 characteristic 0CUSTOMER,0CALDAY and you are displaying KFs "No of Orders" and "Order Value".
Now if you have both characteristic in the ROWS section in the query designer the report will show Customerwise Daywise Total Order and Sum of Order values.
Push the 0CALDAY to Free Characteristic.Now you will see only Customer wise No of orders and Value.Right Click you will find an option to drilldown to 0CALDAY and when you select you will be able to see Customerwise Daywise details.
Hierarchies by default shows the first node and you can drill down to its children.
Navigational Attribute behaves as a characteristic in the infocube with which you will be able to restriction as well as drill down/up.

Drill Down and Drill UP on Web Analysis Report

Hi all,
I have a question regarding Drill down and Drill up on Web Analysis Report.
The situation is the following:
I've created a report with some account parent elements in row. The dimension account has a multiple hierarchy.
I need to drill down on the child of these elements keeping the parente on top and so i've selected the option "Selected Member First".
The drill down it's ok for the first drill to go on the next level but when i drill down once more to go on the next level of the selected member hierarchy the drill move this level out hierarchy.
Can someone help me on this point?
After that i've drilled just to the last level when i drill up on these elements to return on the previous level i note that in the report happens a strange thing:
The Drill Up works fine but on the report appears another elements which is the same parent with anothe code/alias of another hierarchy instead of the Selected member.
On this i've noted tha this 2 different parente have the same elements...I think that the children of the selected memeber can be shared members....Can be this the problem?
Thanks for the help.
Best Regards
Eugenio Gualtieri

Hi John,
thanks for your answer.
I've trayed to set the report on Smart View to virify tou test your advise.
The situatio is the following:
IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
702000 - VEND. DI SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
702010 - RETTIFICHE VENDITE SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
W10004 - RICAVI PUBBL ICITA' ATTIVA (Q.EDIT) INTE

W10004 - RICAVI PUBBL ICITA' ATTIVA (Q.EDIT) INTE
W10007 - RICAVI DA SPAZIO PUBBL. INTERASA
W10029 - RETTIFICA RICAVI PUBBL. INTERASA
If I take only one parent member the drill up works fine but if i take all 2 memeber as above and i decide to drill up on one of the two element occur that the drill work for the two elements at the same time.
Afetr the drill in this case the situation is:
IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
ED05101010-PUBBLICITA'
Can be a problem due to shared memebers?
Thanks for your help.

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

Difference between drill down and filter using navigation attributes?

hi all,
can anyone let me know the difference between filter and drilldown options using navigational attributes. pls explain with examples for filter and drill down and how it varies.
thanxs
haritha

Jst to add up with an example :
Say you have a cost center variance analysis report with cost elements in the filter. ( not present in the default report result )
Filter - You can right click on a particular cost center & say " Keep Filter Value " - it will result in only showing that cost center & you can wish to select other filter value doing " Select Filter Value ".
Drill Down - If u wish to see the cost elements associated with cost centers you can right click on Cost Center & do " Drill Down To - Cost Element " or Drill Across.

Is it possible to implement the drill down and navigate reorts in narrative

any body pse help me to find 'is it possible to implement the drill down and navigate reports in narrative view'

Hi user12255470,
Go URLs are a way to directly call an Answer Request or Dashboard Page via a URL. In addition, you can even pass parameters in the URL as filters. GO URLs are used will you want to allow a user to drill into detail by clicking on a static text. It also allows other tools to drill into OBIEE.
Here's an example GO URL: http://LOCALHOST:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Go&Path=/users/administrator/OTN Tests/Page Test&Style=oracle10&Format=PDF
I'll break down each piece
LOCALHOST: This is the URL for your OBIEE web host
:9704: This is the typical port for OBIEE installs (sometimes 7777)
?Go: This is where the it's gets the name "GO URL". It's the GO command.
&Path= : This is the full path of the report. In my case, it's in the administrator folder in a sub folder called OTN Test. The report itself is called Page Test.
&Style=: This sets the style, or the look and feel, on how the report is presented. The default is oracle10.
&Format=: You can set this to default the presentation. I set it to PDf so that a PDF will generated.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!

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,

How to drill down and keep all my pivot table...

Hello experts!
I have a question about how to drill-down in pivot table. If I drill-down I can see the result in the same place...but it dissapear other bins or measures...
Example:
Pivot table:
A
B
C
If I click in A I can see:
a1
a2
a3
But I don't see B and C.
I would like to see when I click on A:
A
---a1
---a2
---a3
B
C
In my example I have a lot of bins to do drill-down...so it doesn't work for me to create three pivot tables and to do a union...
Is that possible? If you need more details you can post here...
Thank you!

Alex, this isn't another question. It looked like you were asking something different. That's why I said to start another thread. The bottom line is that OBIEE can't do what you are looking for.
But I think what is more important is not necessarily how to do what the OP wants, but what is the best way (read: most efficient, simplest, viable) to achieve the goal.
In this case, I think a better approach to your reporting is to use to Dashboard prompts. The first would be like Vehices (which has Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, etc. in the drop-down window) and the second, constrained on the first, called Models/Brands (which has values dependent on what is chosen in the first prompt). With "All Choices" checked off in the prompt design, you have all the combinations a user needs to see in the pivot table. If the user chooses "Cars" from the first prompt, and "All Choices" in the second, then he/she will get all the car models displayed in the pivot table. Or, the user could select one particular moded from the start.
In fact, this is how many product web sites are set up. This gives the flexibility to the user and the report looks clean and efficient. You can have the drill down on the particular model (value interaction) if you wish to supply extra data on the particular model chosen.
I think this is the "correct" answer, Alex, though not the answer to the question you posed. Good luck.

Drill Down and customer Exit variable

Hello together and A Happy New Year!
Please help me with the following topic:
I have a query with 4 selections(fields) in the columns.
In the first selection (F1) I have resctricion to Posting Period via Period to (a user entry variable).
In F2 I have restriction to Posting Period via Period to cust (customer exit based on value of V1 - introduced by the user)
In F3 I have restriction to PP via Period from, Period to (between: user entry variables)
In F4 restriction to PP fia Period from cust, Period to cust (between: customer exit variables)
In the query, if I select in the selection screen Period from 1 and Period to 3, for example, when I make the drill down, only 3 (Period to) is displayed instead of 1, 2 and 3.
If in the query designer I remove from the columns F1 and F2, then the drill down is working properly (having intervals in the other fields: F3 and F4).
Do you have any idea why drill down is not working properly with all 4 fields in the columns?
Thank you,
Iuliana

Drill-down and how to change to the correct value in the dashboard title

Good Morning,
I have a problem on the presentational side, which some of you might have seen as well.
My dashboard page looks like this:
Dummy Prompt 1: YearFrom
Dummy Prompt 2: YearTo
Prompt 3: Item
All three prompts have a presentation variable to show their respective value in the title of the dashboard page.
Below the prompts is the report, which is filtered by the three prompts and contains a column "year" with the option to drill-down.
When I drill-down on a "year" value, a column "month" appears and shows the values of the year by month.
Problem : After the drill-down the title still displays the old "YearFrom" "YearTo" values and not the year I drilled-down on
Question: How to I change the title to the correct year?
Optional: In the drilled-down report I would like to hide the column "year".
Every idea is appreciated

hi, with JSF 2 you got the ajax tag, just tried it and it works fine :)
<h:inputText id="myinput" value="#{back.name}">
<f:ajax execute="@this" event="keyup" render="outtext"/>
</h:inputText>
<h:outputText id="outtext" value="#{back.name}"/>or before JSF 2
<h:outputScript name="jsf.js" library="javax.faces" target="head"/>
<h:inputText id="myinput" value="#{back.name}" onkeyup="jsf.ajax.request(this, event, {render: 'outtext'}); return false;"/>
<h:outputText id="outtext" value="#{back.name}"/>The name property is a simple String in the bean.
Hope this helps

Drill-down and how to reset to the highest level?

Good Morning,
A second question on drill-down:
My dashboard page still looks like this:
Dummy Prompt 1: YearFrom
Dummy Prompt 2: YearTo
Prompt 3: Item
All three prompts have a presentation variable to show their respective value in the title of the dashboard page.
Below the prompts is the report, which is filtered by the three prompts and contains a column "year" with the option to drill-down.
When I drill-down on a "year" value, a column "month" appears and shows the values of the year by month.
Problem: In order to start a new query, the first query values have to be reset (I implemented a button for this) to get back to the "year" report. This is not obvious to the user.
Question: Is there a way to implement the "Reset" button into the "Go" button or another way to avoid the reset for the user?
Again every idea is appreciated
Turalf

The reset button does not work because when anything is entered in the operator field, and you press "reset", two events occur (1) a change is detected in the operator field and (2), a change in the reset is detected. Event (1) occurs first stopping the loop. The reset case is thus never reached.
One solution would be to sense the reset state in the "operator" event. You need to keep the loop running if reset is pressed. (See attached modification.)
Some other suggestions: Notice that I also made a data dependency between the case structure and the while loop. Without this, there is no guarantee that the case structure executes before the while loop and you might generate a race condition with unexpected results. I also re
moved the timeout event, it doesn't seem to do anything. The three text fields should be set to "limit to single line" in this application so fields can be finished by hitting the enter key).

How to drill down and stay on the dashboard

Hi:
OBIEE 11.1.1.6
I created an Action Link that calls another Answers report, and I display the report on a dashboard. The drill down works, but the target report opens in a new window. How can I provide this simple drill functionality but remain on the dashboard?
Thanks!

Hi,
by selecting "Drill in place" then it work as your expected way.
steps: just to edit that dashboard --> your dashboard page object section --> properties -->set it as "Drill In Place" save it and then test it.

Group Description in Drill down and grouping on field

I want to put a formula field for grouping, but I want to display some text(description) in group drill down.
My group field is numeric and I want to display text on right side of drill down report.

Hi Seema,
In order to display a different group name you may try the below steps:
- Right click on the group and click on change Group option and then click on Options taband then check the box which says 'Customize Group Name Field'.
- Now either 'choose from existing field' or 'use a formula as group name' to display the group description.
This would help you to display the appropriate description for that field.

IPhone - Drill down and down and down...

Using the SimpleDrillDown & TableView examples...
To continue drilling down (3rd level; maybe also 4th/5th, ending in a textView), are subsequent levels down just the first detail view simply looped & reconfigured with fresh data from an additional array (stuffed into DataController), or....should another (and another, and another...) unique detail view be created for each additional level and used instead?
Is one method faster for the user or less trouble for the app writer, short or long term?
If it matters, the layout can be either programmatic or via the Interface Builder - just need a clue which direction to pursue.
If someone could just give a quick answer it would help a struggling new iPhone developer, thanks
