Drill down in Table or Pivot for derived column

Hi All,
I have a requirement like Top 5 products should show the product names and remaining should go to *'Others'*. I achieved it by using Rank function and case when.
ex: case when rank(product) <=5 then product else 'Others' end
Now the problem is, I am not getting the Drill option for this column. When I use product column without case when or case when on same column like
case when product = 'xyz' then 'abc' else product end. In this case drill is working.
Can anybody suggest me to get the drill on the derived columns.
Thanks in advance

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.

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 Report gives an error for General Ledger.

Hi,
I'm using the transaction GCAC to compare general ledger with profit centre accounting.While drilling down the report for PCA, the report works fine and gets drilled down to the invoice in SAP.But I get an error when I try to drill down the report for general ledger.It gives an error GI358 i.e. No line items were selected.The diagnosis of the error message shows that pool tables have to converted to transparent tables.
I want to know whether the error occurs beacuse of pool tables issue and if yes then how can we remove the error.

Hiding a row based on the the drill down via table interfaces

I have a requirement to hide a particular row (key field) of a table if a characterisitic (0PLANT) is included in the table.
I have managed to hide the key field via the table interface but need to know how I would see if the characteristic is drilled down (IE included in the table).
Initially I used CAPTION_CELL to establish whether 0PLANT was in the report but when I then removed 0PLANT from the report, CAPTION_CELL is not reprocessed and thus the report is incorrect.
What is the best way to establish what characteristics are included in any report.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Shep.

Hello Gurus ,
I am working on a requirement assciated with report RMCE0200 (Transaction MC$4). This a standard SAP report. After execution of report when we go to Switch Drilldown option, it gives, couple of standard SAP drilldown options like drilldown by Material Group, Material, Plant, Purchase Organization, Vendor, Vendor Country, Period.
User wants one more additional drill down option of VBUND field (Trading partner) in this standard list.
How can I add this additional option ? Is there a configuration somewhere or I have to copy the program RMCE0200 and Transaction MC$4 in Z program and then do modificiations ?

Table event listener for both columns and rows

My table listener only gives me the printed values when I click on different rows and not when I click on different columns. Do I need 2 listeners (one inside the other one) to get a change recorded each time I click on a cell in the table? Here is the listener code:
      ListSelectionModel rowSM1 = jTable1.getSelectionModel();
      rowSM1.addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() {
        public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {
          System.out.println("I am here");
          ListSelectionModel lsm = (ListSelectionModel)e.getSource();
          if (e.getValueIsAdjusting()) {
            return;
          if (lsm.isSelectionEmpty()) {
            //no rows are selected
          else {
            selectedSiteRow = new Integer(lsm.getMinSelectionIndex() + 1).toString();
            System.out.println("selectedSiteRow = " + selectedSiteRow);
            SetupNum = selectedSiteRow; // row that the user selected
            ObjectNum = "1";
            objnum = "1";
            dataModels.remove("O"); // remove the object tables from the dataModels hashtable
            dataModels.remove("P"); // remove the object tables from the dataModels hashtable
            for (int i = 0; i < wholefile.size(); i++) {
              setupnum = selectedSiteRow;
              if (wholefile.elementAt(i).toString().charAt(0) == 'O') {
                processLine(wholefile.elementAt(i).toString(), columnNamesO);
                String keyO = "O";
                DefaultTableModel modelO = (DefaultTableModel)dataModels.get(keyO);
                jTable2.setModel(modelO); // change the table to the new table model
              if (wholefile.elementAt(i).toString().charAt(0) == 'P') {
                processLine(wholefile.elementAt(i).toString(), columnNamesP);
                String keyP = "P";
                DefaultTableModel modelP = (DefaultTableModel)dataModels.get(keyP);
                jTable3.setModel(modelP); // change the table to the new table model
    );The words "I am here" only appear when I click on rows and not when I click on columns of that same row. Anyone know why?
Also, each time I click on a row, "I am here" appears 2 times. I know I read that someone else had that problem. I will try to find the solution to that one in the forum.
Thanks.
Allyson

I found out how to get the column, but I can't seem to get them together. Here is the listener for the column:
      ListSelectionModel colSM1 = jTable1.getColumnModel().getSelectionModel();
      colSM1.addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() {
        public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {
          if (e.getValueIsAdjusting()) {
            return;
          ListSelectionModel lsm = (ListSelectionModel)e.getSource();
          if (lsm.isSelectionEmpty()) {
            //no columns are selected
          else {
            SelectedC = lsm.getMinSelectionIndex();
      });These are 2 different listeners and I really want to find out what row,column has changed. Is there any way to combine these somehow? Thanks.

XMLGEN: Produce XML dump of a table WITH tags for null column values

I am new to generating XML so bear with me....
We have a customer who needs an XML extract of data, including tags for any column that is null.
I created a simple test case below using DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML. The first row (A1) has no null values and thus tags for columns A, BEE and CEE are produced. The second row (A2) has null in column BEE and thus tags for only columns A and CEE are produced.
Is there a way to force a tag for null column BEE in the second row?
create table foo (A varchar2(10), BEE number, CEE date);
insert into foo values ('A1',1,sysdate);
insert into foo values ('A2',null,sysdate);
SELECT DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML('SELECT * FROM foo') FROM dual;
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<A>A1</A>
<BEE>1</BEE>
<CEE>27-SEP-12</CEE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<A>A2</A>
<CEE>27-SEP-12</CEE>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>

What's the database version? (SELECT * FROM v$version)
Could you use this instead :
SQL> select xmlserialize(document
2           xmlelement("ROWSET",
3             xmlagg(
4               xmlelement("ROW",

7               , xmlelement("CEE", cee)
8               )
9             )
10           )
11         -- for display purpose only :

</ROWSET>
Or,

2           xmlquery(
3             '(#ora:view_on_null empty #)
4             {
5               <ROWSET>{fn:collection("oradb:/DEV/FOO")}</ROWSET>
6             }'
7             returning content
8           )
9           as clob indent
10         )
11 from dual;
XMLSERIALIZE(DOCUMENTXMLQUERY(
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
    <A>A1</A>
    <BEE>1</BEE>
    <CEE>2012-09-27</CEE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
    <A>A2</A>
    <BEE/>
    <CEE>2012-09-27</CEE>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
(where "DEV" is my test schema)
If you want to stick with DBMS_XMLGEN, you're gonna have to use PL/SQL and setNullHandling procedure.

Hi Lucy,
Try like below expression in derived columns..
((FIELD1 = 'A'
&& FIELD2 IS NULL)
? "A" :
(FIELD1 = 'B'
&& FIELD2 IS NULL)
? "Y" :
(FIELD1 = 'A' && FIELD2 = 'C' )?
”C_A” :
(FIELD1 = 'B' && FIELD2 = 'C' )
? “'C_B” :
(FIELD1 = 'A' && FIELD2 = 'D' )
? “'D_A'” :
(FIELD1 = 'B' AND FIELD2 = 'D' )
? “'D_B”
: "0"))

Expression for derived column

Hi,
In my SSRS package I have a field which may have a null value. I want to create a derived column that does the following:
If the value is null replace with 0 else return the value
How do I script this?The fiels is my [Qty Remaining] field. I thought it might have been something like this but I was obviously wrong:
ISNULL([Qty Remaining]) ? "0" : [Qty Remaining]
Cheers
Paul

Try this
ISNULL([number]) ? (DT_I4) "0" : [number]
"0" is unicode string, you have to convert it to number, in my case integer or choose yourself

2014 In-Memory Table Bucket Size for varchar column

i'm trying to create an In-Memory Table with a hash index on a varchar column. If you have a numeric field, it's supposed to be twice the unique values, but how do you calculate the BUCKET_COUNT for a varchar(20) column? I've an Email column and i want to
create an index on it but i don't know what the BUCKET_COUNT should be... i cannot find any help about it, every tutorial or help explains hash indexes with numeric values only.
thanks!

I do have a question, though. What happens if there is a hash collision? Yes, things slow down a little, but I wonder how much. Hash table twice the size (row count) of the data, can be pretty large. Especially if the data is
not unique and is going to produce collisions anyway! I assume it will still work even if the hash table bucket count is
half the number of data rows. Remember, Hekaton is 100x faster, so what if a few collisions slows it down to 97x?
Well, it is not 100x; I think they have achieved something like 30x in
their demos.
I am not sure that you can have non-unique hash indexes, but in any case it only make sense if duplicates are occasionaly.
An occasional hash collision is not going cost you a lot, but if you started with a bucket count of one million, and now have five million rows, you are certainly losing performance.

How to disable a single cell in a table (and not the whole column)

Hi there,
I've got a webdynpro table with a few columns, rows can be created dynamically through a button in the table toolbar.
Depending on the value of a certain cell I have to disable another cell (in the same row).
I tried to manipulate the view in the modifyview but no joy. I also tried to manipulate the attribute property through the coding below:
DATA lv_knttp TYPE knttp.
lo_nd_kostl = wd_context->path_get_node( path = `MULTIVALUES.KOSTL` ).
lo_el_kostl = lo_nd_kostl->get_element( ).
lo_el_kostl->set_attribute_property(
attribute_name = 'LTEXT'
property = lo_el_kostl->e_property-enabled
value = ''
but it disables the whole column!!!! I just need the cell to be disabled (I thought the code above, through the lead selection, would affect a certain cell only - but I was wrong).
Any ideas?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
using cell variants you can do this.,
check this article: [Cell Variants in WDA|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/WebDynproforABAPCellVariants]
Instead of binding the read only property of table as a whole , just bind the read only property of column group of table., You can do this bu drill down the table and select the required column and bind the read only column.,
then In onAction Event of button .,
loop the table, if condition satisfied set the read only property to true else false.,!!
hope this helps u.,
Thanks & regards,
Kiran

Get table ID for drill down (javascript functions)

I want to implement some custom drill downs. When you click on a column to drill down, it uses the following javascript function: RTDr(saw_5_6,0,0) where in this case, "saw_5_6" is my current table. Since this is dynamically set and the table name can change, is there a property that i can get this table name from?
I see where the object is created....(dynamically I might add)
window.saw_5_6 = new Object();
saw_5_6.sJSObjName = 'saw_5_6';
Just wondering if there is a way / property that gives me this information so I can call RTDr() and supply it the correct table name.
Thanks.
Edited by: Derek on Nov 9, 2010 2:28 PM

If there is only one table on the page then you can use my function as it is. I wrote it to implement custom writeback. Of course you can modify it to get all table objects.
function getSawTableObject(){
     var ptrSawTableObjectName = /saw_.\d/;
     var obj = null;
     for (var propertyName in window){
          if ((ptrSawTableObjectName).exec(propertyName) && String(propertyName).charAt(0) == 's'){
               obj = window[propertyName];
               break;
     return obj
}

Lose chart drill-down for webi based on BEx/BICS

Hi All,
I have a client for whom drill-down through charts based on SAP hierarchies is an essential requirement. My research here (and elsewhere) has led me to the following conclusions:
1. IDT Universe (.unx) can't be based on BEx query (functionality briefly appeared then was revoked with subsequent SP)
2. The supported/recommended method for reporting against BEx query is the BICS connectivity
3. A webi report based on a BICS (although offers nice new sap hierarchy interaction) does not support drill-down through charts
Just looking for confirmation that I am correct...and that my reports will therefore need to be based off traditional universes (.unv), to achieved drill down on charts in webi?
Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks,
Ferdie.

Hey Ferdie
1. Build table in WEBI Document include the Hierarchy object (0COSTCENTER).
2. Choose the CostCenter, right click set as Selection.
3. Now add new Blank Cell and put it near selection , enter there some text , like JUMP TO, DRILL and etc..
4. Now select the CELL . right click , Linking and Hipper Link or Document Link, and choose there another document
or you also can choose self document. When your linking to another webi document you can transfer to it parameters to prompt. So Transfer the costcenter as parameter.
The document link option available only when you run document in View mode (No rich client without JAVA). I will open OSS to SAP about this issue
Also you can choose to open the document in current window, so then user will think that he is still in same document
Example for link parameter:
/portal/1110311905/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AdJiD59b4kJKkhNpGCYT8Q0&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&lsSpsCost%20Center%3A=Ness&sWindow=Same
I hope this will work

In OBIEE charts, how do you make drill downs work on custom formulas?

I posted this over on Linked In and didn't get an anser, so I'm hoping someone here has an answer.
I'm writing a summary query / chart for a dashboard in OBIEE 10.1 with a drill down (technically it's a "navigation") for more information. This chart breaks down the data by fiscal quarter and by geography (both are columns in the subject area) and I can get this drill down to work just fine. But I also have this chart broken down by some custom calculated fields (CASE WHEN statements) that classify revenue into Forecast / At Risk / Upside etc. (which are not columns or values of columns within the subject area).
When I add a drill down or navigate function onto those calculated columns, I'm getting a full data set ... not a filtered data set for that particular calculated field. (Yes, I have all of the IS PROMPTED filters set up correctly, and yes the formulas in the source and destination queries are identical).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to make the drill down or navigation work on custom formulas?
Thanks
