To stop the drill down in OBIEE 11g

Can we stop the level of drill down in RPD.
ie) The Hierarchy level is l1->l2->l3->l4->l5
I need to stop the hierarchy at l4 and it shouldnot drill down to l5.

Hi,
Expand the Dimensional Hierarchy that you have created and at the level where you need to stop the drill down-->open that level-->in general-->uncheck the 'Supports rollup to higher level of aggregation' and this should solve your problem.
Otherwise if you need only till 4th level, then create till 4th level for hierarchy.
Hope this should solve your problem.

Passing Filter criteria parameters to drill-down reports

Hi,
I have a scenario, where my base report prompts a filter criteria for date range (from & to date) based on this criteria, I populate my base report with data's.
Suppose if i have a drill-down, can i make use of the filter criteria value selected in the base report and pass the same value to my next-level drill-down report as criteria.
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
My environment details are provided below.
BAM (11.1.1.3)
Report: Summary crosstab
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK

Hi pypawar,
Thanx for ur reply.
We are not using heirarchical drilling in our case, we are using another report for drill-down.
I will give some more background for this issue.
We have a scenario where we used the date filter for getting the from and to dates based on which we display our Master report (cross-tab).
Further, when drilling down from the master report to child report(which uses the same dataobject as master); we are not able to pass the dates input that were provided in master report as filter criteria.
While assigning parameters in the drill-down for the child report, we are not able to find an option to pass the date value selected in the master report to child report for filter criteria.
In an alternate approach, what we did to resolve the above issue was to pass the primary key fields of the data object while drill-down. But while passing primary keys, we realised there are cases where large number of values are getting passed as filter criteria to child reports and in some case it fails since there large number values getting passed as filter criteria.(in our case the chance of this value could be few 100's to 1000's). You can find details for this error in CACHEEXCEPTION during drill-down in BAM reports
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK

Show drill down with in same page in Oracle BAM 11g

Is it possible to show drill down report with in same report page?say once i open a report A, user can see only report A.Once i drill down to next level the report page will show report A and next drilled reoprt say report B and like this.

You mean to say you have two different reports like a master summary report and second as detailed report or you are just using bam hierarchichal drilling to drill down to the lower level detail?
BAM driving feature works on the two views in the same report like you have a list view at top of report and a pie chart view at the bottom, then you can pass parameters(like cliking on a row of list will pass parameter to the bottom view) from the top view to the bottom view and depending upon the parameter passed, the bottom view will get updated. In this case, you can see both the views simultaneously on the same page.

Drill down mapping in Combo chart in BAM 11g

Is it possible to enable drill down for both the report in combo chart?That means i have a combo chart of zone wise distribution of total price as bar chart and zone wise distribution of total quote as line chart.If i click on bar chart and line chart it will open another report.

Hi Anish,
There is "Series Names Destination:" parameter on Drill-Down (Insertion) Tab of Bubble chart component. By using that parameter you can retrieve selected serie. Via that value you can extract selected serie's selected value and drill down to required selection via some excel formulas like index-match or vlookup-hlookup. I hope that solves your issue.

OBIEE 11g Report-When drilling down to lower level, totals are not matching

Hi All,
I am creating a report in Analytics 7.9.6.3 , OBIEE 11g - Let’s say Budget Cost/Actual Cost based on the Date Dimension
Have selected the Fiscal Year Dim, Fact Budget Cost, Fact Actual Cost
FY BCost ACost
2011 100 120
2012 150 140
Total 250 260
But here when I am drilling down from Year to Quarter and Period - The values are not matching with the totals....
FY FY Qrt BCost ACost
2011 2011 Q1 80 100
2011 Q2 100 90
2011 Q3 110 120
2011 Q4 90 130
Total 380 440
Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter Budget Cost and Actual Cost are not returning correct results – When selecting cost's by fiscal year, or filtering on a specific fiscal year, the amount returned does not equal the fiscal year total;
when I am drilling down to Quarter and Period Level the BCost & ACosts are bumping the Numbers as above and not matching with totals
Any suggestions?

Check out the query in both the times.Execute against database and try to sum the data for quarter/period and compare it with Year data.
Just try to differentiate is it a report total that is getting wrong or the data in the database table itself is getting wrong stored.
Mark as helpful if it helps.

Drill down in 11g

Hi Experts,
We have created the Logical Dimension with Level-Based hierarchy for a table in OBIEE 11g.
like Year -> Month -> Week -> Date -> Media -> Station -> Market -> Day -> Time
When drill down from Year its work fine upto Mrket level, when click on the Mrket (particular Value) its getting Empty report but its working fine in OBIEE 10g.
Let me know how to fix this issue.
Thanks,
Balaa...

Have u mentioned the child levels for each level in the hierarchy in BMM layer in the properties of each level. if not then just double click on each level for ex. year and then mention quarter as its child level . do this for each level and it will solve the issue hopefully.

Rank function breaks drill down 11g

I have a simple drill down report standard hierarchy and am having a weird issue with the rank function.
This report works on 10g but the upgraded 11g version does not.
When I drill down past the 2nd level it adds an is null filter to the revenue column. This is also the column we are using to base our rank function.
If I move the rank column to the first or last position in the table the drills work perfectly. If I move it to the second column it breaks on the first drill instead of the 2nd.
It works perfectly if drilling on the headings instead of the values. That seems to point to some sort of null coming through when being passed. I've tried using an ifnull and a case statement and neither method works, it just applies the is null filter to the entire column formula.
The client doesn't want to change the position of the rank column so that work around will not do. Any ideas?

A similar thread was recently talked about here:
In OBIEE charts, how do you make drill downs work on custom formulas?
With a calculated column, you need to make sure the source query and destination query have the EXACT same formula and the same name for the field. If it is not 100% identical, it may not work correctly. (I typically use the NAVIGATE function to get to the second query rather than the Drill function.)
Now in some cases, if you try to create a second drill down query with more details in it, the original formula doesn't work the way you want it to. The calculated formulas have to make sense in both source query and destination query in order to work properly. If you have a ranking of the Top 5 Products in the source query, the destination query also has to have the same ranking of Top 5 products in order to work. If you add more fields into the destination query (e.g., adding on product attributes, or # of records associated with that product name etc.), then sometimes the ranking / aggregation in the destination doesn't add up the same way. This causes the system to think that the formulas are different and prevents the drill down.
I managed to get around this by having a 3rd query in between the original summary view and the detailed data view. So the sequence would be (for example):
- Dashboard based summary query (including the calculated ranked product names formula)
- drill down into virtually identical query (add on one slight bit of difference here, for example adding on a second Product Name field ... not a calculated version, but the actual name). Create a drill down this time by clicking on the regular Product Name field (don't drill down on the custom formula)
- final detailed drill-down query
You can format this intermediary drill down query to explain to users that they need to click a second time.
It's not ideal, but it should work. Hope this helps.

Unable to Multi Level Drill Down on Single Data Object in BAM Report

Hi,
We need to have multi level drill down in a BAM report.
We are able to create single level drill down using 'Collapsed List' view in a Tiled Report, but unable to drill further.
We are using BAM (11.1.1.2).
Please let us know the steps to do this, your input is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Arijit

Have you used Dimension? By defining Dimensions, you can create multi level drill down on the same data object, in the same report.
1. Define the Dimension in the data object
2. In the Studio, choose Drilling tab under the report
3. Drill Hierarchies will be available. Choose the Dimension
The drilling level will depend on the depth of the Dimension you have specified!

OBIEE 11g drill down issue

Hi,
I've configured a hierarchy (level-based) on clustering attributes: info_data(id,gender,age,region,category,relevation_date,cluster_name) dimension_data(foreign_id,occurrences) in which the hierarchy is defined as: gender ->age -> region. I've done the same type of hierarchy on other business models (also other tables) and it worked as expected.
In this configuration, instead, the drill-down seems to collapse into the detail level directly: for example if I make a pie chart where I put as pies the gender distribution (M/F) and I click on the pie with "M" I expect to have a pie with the age combinations, but what I have is that also the id (which is the display column for the detail level) shows up making the chart unreadable (all combination of age/id for "M"...as id is unique every pie as the same size).
I've done some research and tried some workaround I see for similar problems like marking the hierarchy as ragged, but the problem still remains. Any idea?
Thank you in advance.

Which release do you use of OBIEE ?

OBIEE 11g: Build a drill down detail on the count of records

Hello:
I have a summary report based on certain criteria shows the count of certain number of records for example, count(sales_id).
Region (North), Product Category(ABC) -> 15 (Sales record count using count(sales_id))
I want the ability to provide another detail report which will be the drill down of 15 that shows 15 sales records in detail.
The detail report will be invoked using the Action Link which has the BI navigation from the Measure Column (that has 15) to pass the list of sales_id's as the prompted filter based on the analysis results from the summary report.
Any idea on what I need to do in the summary report to pass the list of sales id's instead of the count 15? I do not want to display the sales_id's in the summary report.
Thanks
Sankar

SankarIn your example, each of the 15 sales IDs are in the same Product Category (ABC), yes? So put the action link on this column instead of the measure (so ABC in this example would be the link). In the detail report, you will need to include the Sales ID column in order to produce the 15 rows, but you can hide it so it doesn't show up on the report. (The reason you want to include the sales ID in the destination report is because the measure column would break out the rows only assuming there are no measures that are the same. If they are the same, they might roll up so having the sales ID in the report ensures that the rows remain distinct.)

Action Link in obiee 11g for a Hierarchy Drill Down Level

Hi
Requirement is:
We have a Time Dimension Hierarchy with drill down Levels(Year, Qtr, Month, Day). So now i wanted to provide an action link on detailed column(day) which will navigate to other report. I have tried doing it but unable to get the actual solution.
Can anyone throw some ideas on how to achieve this.
Thank You

Hi,
Can u tell me whats the error you r getting over ther,
Use the hierarchy flow, starts with the + symbol,
edit the column properties and go for interaction tab and give action link + drill
check the columns between the 2 reports and assign prompts between the reports then you can get the correct one.
Regards,
VG

Problem with drill down in time dimension - OBIEE 11G

Hello There,
I have a problem with drill down in time dimension. The hierarchy for time dimension is " Fiscal Year---> Fiscal Quarter---> Month(Name)--->Date". When I select a Time dimension and click results its getting opened in a Pivot table view. The problem here is, when I click the "Total" its getting drilled down to Year ---> Quarter but when I click on "+ sign next to quarter" it should drill down to month for that particular quarter for that particular year but its drilling down to month for that particular quarter for all years.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harry.

1.) Congrats for resurrecting a year-old thread.
2.) Your answer is here: "Check the level key of the quarter level...it should include both quarter and year columns. Since a specific quarter occurs every year, quarter column alone can't be used as the level key."
