Drill Down Bar Chart Formatting

Hi;
We have a bar chart with conditional formatting on the bars (if % of goal is x, show red, if y show green, etc.) This is built on a hierarchy and has drill down feature from region to stores in the region. When drilling down into the store detail, the formatting on the bars is not carrying through. Any advise???

Hello,
You can not do this as of now, in OBIEE.
You have to come up with additional column which is some kind %, or brings uniformaty to other columns and then change the colors
Hope this helps

How to reset drill-down column-chart based on map-chart?

Hi guys,
I'm facing pritty common issue while designing one of my dashboards. Let me describe a little bit more:
1. I have some data extracted from BW using Query as WebService into my Xcelsius spreadsheet.
2. I have map-chart - regions for some country.
3. I have a drill-down column-chart, which displays data for a selected region.
At the beginning column-chart displays results for entire country (which, in fact, is not exactly drill-down). The issue I'm fasing is, that in case I select any region and the data is drilled-down into my column-chart, I have no option to show data for the entire county in the column-chart anymore (the only one way is to restart the report).
Are there any possible way to do this, or am I doing a design error while displaying data, which is not drilled-down, into a chart which is intended to display drill-down data only?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Ivaylo Mutafchiev,
I understand your problem now. So your column chart data which is coming from the QAAWS query should be having a prompt which is bound to some cell in excel. and your map might be passing the values for prompt isn't it? in your case the map might be passing a region.
All you need to do is put the prompt in the web service for region as a optional prompt. Now pull in a check box or a Push button(name it as reset or something.). while binding the data to the check box or push button (source data) bind it to a blank cell. when user clicks on it , it passes a blank vlaue to the region(this is ur input for region) which will inturn makes the prompt optional for the region web service. which should pull all the data for all the region.
The whole idea lies in somehow passing a blank cell to your web service whose region prompt is optional.
Thanks,
Karthik

Can I navigate and drill down in chart and pivot table?

In the fact, the end user want to navigate to a detail report request when drill down to the final level.
I know when use table, I can navigate on data and drill down on column.
But in chart and "pivot table", I do not find the option of interaction to achieve this.
Any suggestion?

You can drill down in charts but I just saw you can't in pivots (strange because I assumed that that must be possible)
However, you can always use guided navigation!

Drill down on Chart in CR XI R2

HI
I am using Crystal Report XI R2 to design reports. And we are inviking CR through Java API(GWT).
Does Crystal report supports Drill Down on Chart (Clicking on pie should bring up the related detailes section).
I could see it n designer , But CR Viewer is displaying chart as image so I do not see Drill down enablen in viewer.
Do we need to do use some API or Setting to enable in viewer. Or I am doing something wrong.

Drill Down in Tabular Format Metrics

I know how to drill down inside of a Pie Chart for Metrics using the drillDown() method and passing the arguments.
But how do I do this, when my Metrics are in Tabular format displayed as a Group on the dashboard to the end user..
So when the end-user clicks on one of the rows lets say employee ID, it should pop up another tabular format Group presentation show the address, department etc.. of that employee?
How do I do that?
I don't have any On-Click Method where I can specify the drillDown() method for my tabular Format Group Metrics?

The "on change invoke" property's method is able to automatically detect the row in your group that was clicked because your method is inside your group and not in the parent BPM Object. If you're on 10g, make sure you've upgraded to a recent hotfix for 10g, there is a bug that prevents this from working on earlier cuts of the software.
Inside your group, add a new method called "showMeTheNameIChanged()". Add logic similar to this:
// you do not need this unless you want to determine the row # that was clicked
//   - this assumes that your group's name is "orderLines"
lineSelected = orderLines.indexOf(this)
// this will display the value of the attribute "customerName" in the row changed
display "You changed the name on the row ["
        + lineSelected + "] (zero based) and changed the name to ["
        + customerName + "]"Because the method is associated with the group and not the parent BPM Object, it automatically knows that you want the attributes for the row that was clicked. Again, although you can retrieve the row number ("lineSelected" in the above logic) you do not need to do this to retrieve the values of the attributes in the row changed ("customerName" in the above example).

Drill Down Flash Charts dont refresh in IE

Hi Friends,
I am facing a typical issue when I have drill down charts in IE.
To mimic the scenario that I am facing in my project I have created a sample project in my workspace ntekupal with login guest/apex_demo. Run the application project Emp Dept Dashboard.
Note : Make sure you use IE to reproduce this issue
Issue Reproduction :
1) Select 'Accounting' department from the Departments bar chart by double clicking it(this is one more issue in IE which really annoys me).
2) Navigate to Employees chart and observe that the Deptno text box shows '10' with the list of employees in the bar chart for Deptno - 10.
3) Go back to previous page using breadcrumbs.
4) Select 'Research' and it would again put you back to Employees page showing employee list for Deptno - 20.
5) Now repeat step-3 and select again 'Accounting'
6) Observe that the employees shown are not for Accounting Department. It is still showing for Research but the deptno text box would show the value 10(which is correct).
7) Refresh the page then the employee bar chart would display the actual employees in Research deptmnt.
Now run the same application in Mozilla and it works perfect.
I know this could be some caching issue in IE but not sure how to fix this.
It really freaks me out and my users do not wan to use Mozilla. In my project I am using a bunch of flash charts(bar & pie).
I appreciate if I can get some of your precious inputs on this situation.
Thanks,
Raj.

I have to, respectfully, take the opposite point of view on this topic. It is very much the applications responsibility to communicate to the browser that the page is dynamic. There are even meta tags specifically for this purpose.
That said, I concur to the true underlying concern of the above two posts that you would not want a page updating any IE global settings.
There are commonly two solutions used to solve page caching issues:
1) There are meta tags shared disparately by certain browsers to disable cacheing, set expiration dates, and similar activities. Each browser honors the settings differently, however, you can safely "stack" several versions together and there are web-sites that suggest the appropriate combination to hit the major browsers.
The tags to look for are CACHE-CONTROL, EXPIRES, REVISIT, and possibly others. Look them up under each browsers developer documentation as some variation exists in usage. The latter two are for search engines, but several of the browsers will use them in normal page hits.
That said, IE inconsistently honors these tags, even from version to version, so,
2) The end-all hack solution is to include a random value in the URL to create a unique URL on each attempt to access the page. Normally this can be achieved through a page or application item that is update on every page view and is passed on the URL line.
This solution is also commonly used because Proxy's may not honor the tag and so will continue to re-send the proxy version every time the browser requeries.
Whether this is possible in the Chart drill down I do not know as I haven't used this feature yet, but these are the two solutions you will find browsing the web against page caching.
I have invariably always had to resort to (2) to get absolutely real time data, unless I am in a corporate environment that used a standard and stable version of the browser.
Under no circumstances would I prefer to set the IE's always retrieve latest page setting, as this affects every page that IE requests.
Hope this is helpful,
Barney

Drill down on Charts(Graphs)

Hi,
I have three level hierarchies Country, State and customer for drill down
Country should be shown in bar chart.
When report is opend first time, this bar chart will be displayed.
Now only one chart is showing for coutry.
I will start drill down.
If I click on the bar(coutry bar chart) , below of the bar chart, map chart should be displayed for state.
If I click on map chart(state map chart) , below of the map chart, line chart should be displayed for customer.
Now there are three charts bar, map and line after drill down.
How to achieve these please let me know.
Thanks and Regards,
Manjunath

Alering the Chart is not possible in webi or Deski. You can alter hte header or title but not the chart. You can do this in Dashboard or in Xcelsius.

Discoverer plus drill down looses workbook formatting

Hi,
I am having a strange issue with my discoverer workbook. I have created a report with drill down for example
here is the hierarchy i am trying: [http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/6787/hierarchy.png]
now on the net sales level I have grouped the region column by selecting "Group Sort" on that column and same on the customer column and net sales column. but the problem happens when i go down to the next level. for example the customer level at this point the grouping of the region goes away and the report looks ugly. so basically it has lines like:
Net Sales east region cust1
Net Sales east region cust2
Net Sales west region cust1
Net Sales west region cust2
instead of:
Net Sales east region cust1
cust1
west region cust1
cust2
hope that makes sense of my problem. so the group sort just goes away when i drill down. please help

Hi,
I tried your suggestion but that didn't work. i still loose formatting when i drill up and then drill back down.
I thought maybe these images will help better explain please have a look. I had to break it to make the images look more clear.

MSChart drill down pie chart

Hi,
I need to show MSchart Pie chart drill down to show expanded pie chart for the selected pie in C# ASP.net

Drill down pie chart using SVG

Having read several posts in this forum regarding SVG, pie charts and drilling down, I get the impression that it is possible, using the "link" column in the chart query, to drill down to another page.
My requirement is similar in that given a pie chart, the user can click on one of the sections of the pie and see more detail in another pie chart. The difference is that the page should not change (ie: other graphics and content ought not change when the pie chart is clicked).
Has anyone worked out a solution for something like this?
Is it, for example, possible to, on clicking the pie chart, have a conditional display set for a previously hidden chart and hide the original chart?
Your replies are appreciated.

I just re-read this and realize you want it on the same page. Same logic applies. Create a hidden item, a second chart region taking in the parameter from the first, and set it to show only when the hidden item is not null.
Let me know what you think:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=20332:1
Code for the first chart is:
select 'f?p='||:APP_ID||':1:::::P1_DRILLDOWN:'||cu.customer_id,
       cu.cust_first_name || ' ' || cu.cust_last_name,
       count(ord.order_id)
from demo_orders ord,
       demo_customers cu
where cu.customer_id = ord.customer_id
group by 'f?p='||:APP_ID||':1:::::P1_DRILLDOWN:'||cu.customer_id,
cu.cust_first_name || ' ' || cu.cust_last_name2nd Chart:
select null,
       product_name,
       count(ite.product_id)
from demo_orders ord,
       demo_order_items ite,
       demo_product_info pro
where ord.order_id = ite.order_id and
       ite.product_id = pro.product_id and
       ord.customer_id = :P1_DRILLDOWN
group by product_nameModify as necessary.

Drill down pie chart

Hi,
I have a pie chart that drills down to a column chart. I have assigned colours to the pie slices and dynamically assigned these to the column chart, to try and get the linkage between the two.
However the pie chart changes the colour/shade of the selected pie slice, so that column chart is slightly different.
Is it possible to have the select pie slice becoming detached from the chart to highlight that it has been selected and linked to the column chart?
Thanks,
Niall

Thanks Senthil,
I have the colours working between the two charts. But even in Ryan's example, when you click a slice it changes the colour of that slice, so that it doesn't match the colour of the column chart.
What I am looking for, is to have the selected slice detach/offset from the pie chart to indicate more clearly that it is selected. When the user selects a different slice then that is detached and the original selection is reattached.
I think Excel would refer to it an an exploded view of the pie chart. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Niall

Drill Down on Charts

Hi,
Problem: User want's to drill down on the column chart and it should show
the next level of hierarchy values in the "same chart".
User should also be able to drill up to the top level.
Is there is any way I can mimic the WebI drill down functionality
by Excel logic or by dynamic visibility.
Thanks,
Sunny

Hi Sunny,
I think you best bet would be to look at the XWIS product from http://www.antivia.com/
They did a demo on the BO Weekly Webinars that you should take a look at. see

I have no idea of pricing, but I think it meets your requirement exactly and might save you a lot of effort, pain

Adding multiple views to a drill down pie chart

Hi,
I'm currently using OBIEE 10g and have a problem when drilling down on a pie chart.
I have a dashboard named spending analytics and it shows in a pie chart, spending by different categories (airlines, automotive, etc).
When i click on the Airlines slice of the whole pie chart i drill down to a pie chart with the spending from different airlines (American, United, etc)
However, I want to have another level of drill down where i can choose an option as speding by state as well. So, spending by state should be part of the airlines.
Then i should have Total Spending by category(airline) > Spending by type(United) > Spending by state(PA,DC, etc)
How can this be done?

Hi User,
Drill Down from Pie chart can be done.
Create a Pie chart report intially, add the same to compound layout.
Now, edit the pie chart.
You can view, Additional charting options icon. Click on it.
Now click on 3rd tab -> Interaction.
Select Navigate.
Add Navigation Target. Here, Browse the detail report and add the caption.
Here, you can add as many detail reports as you like.
I have created the same and added 3 different detail reports. It worked for me. Even, i used 10g.
I hope the same with you.
Award some points if it helps you and resolves your issue :)
