Drill down needs to run different request

An existing 5-level drill-down request must be changed to display a different report on drill-down from level 3 and produce this report through level 5. The different report differs in the columns it contains as well as the style and content of the graph. Since the different report is particular to the unique value at level 2, this value must be furnished to the level 3 report for filtering.
I am new enough to the Siebel Analytics/Oracle OBIEE tool that I dont know where to begin looking for an approach to this. Any help you can provide will be appreciated.

Hello Cliff, I dont have the BI in front of me but the concept is this:
Instead of creating one report and drilling down the 5 levels
You create 5 reports each report showing what you would want to see in that 'level'. Then instead of drilling down you navigate from the first repor tyou created to the second one and then from the second to the third etc.
If you want the reports you navigate to to be filtered by the value you click on you can filter them as "is prompted".
Navigation can be found on properties>column properties>column/value interaction i think in the criteria. You set the repoirt you want to navigate to when the user clicks on a field. You can also enter multiple navigaation targets.

Preventing drill down after query runs

I have an Order query with a hierarchy attached to the infoObject. I created select-option on the Hierarchy node with a node variable. When the query runs if we tell it to display 1 level it works as desired by showing the node name and total. The problem here is the user can then drill down on the hierarchy and we don't want that because we have three summary queries in a workbook and a grand total number at the bottom.
We like the summary number but can we turn off the drill down?
Thanks

Hi Marcus,
I do not know how to turn off interactive features once and for all. But, here are a couple of ideas (implemented in a workbook).
1. I need a certain characteristic displayed as "Key + Text". Each time query is refreshed, I check to ensure the correct display of that characteristic. If the characteristic is displayed correctly, OK. If the characteristic is displayed, but not correctly, I use the OLAP command "PC02" to display it correctly. If the characteristic is missing, I push the query all the way back to "start". Here is code for this:
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
Dim c As Range, myCell As Range
    Set myCell = Nothing
    For Each c In resultArea.Cells
        If c = "Sales Area" Then
            Set myCell = c
            Exit For
        End If
    Next c
    If myCell Is Nothing Then
        Run "sapbex.xla!SAPBEXfireCommand", "STRT", myCell
    Else
        Run "sapbex.xla!SAPBEXfireCommand", "PC02", myCell
    End If
End Sub
2. This example more directly addresses the question of restricting the interactive features. In a workbook, the "Enable Interactive Functions" checked is stored in the query repository sheet (SAPBEXqueries) in column "O". TRUE if checked, FALSE if not checked. You can check to see if this has been changed from FALSE to TRUE, and if it has been changed, you can take the query back to "start". Here is the code for that:
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
Dim bexWS As Worksheet
    Set bexWS = Sheets("SAPBEXqueries")
    numQ = bexWS.Range("A2")
    For i = 1 To numQ
        If bexWS.Range("F" & i + 3) = queryID Then
            If bexWS.Range("O" & i + 3) = True Then
                bexWS.Range("O" & i + 3) = "FALSE"
                Run "sapbex.xla!SAPBEXfireCommand", "STRT", resultArea
            End If
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

Drill down in Bex is different than drill down in WAD

Hello experts.
I have been creating queries in Bex for 6 years and am very familiar with the Bex functionality. I recently started embedding some Bex queries into the WAD and of course am displaying them on the web. I am experiencing an unexpected problem with drill downs on the web. In a nutshell, the query drills DOWN as expected in Bex, but when I drill down on the web, the results are displayed ACROSS the web page instead of down the web page.
I am not using any custom HTML, Java, or other custom code. Has anyone experienced this? Any thoughts on how to correct? Here is more specific detail:
Bex query looks like this:
3 Characteristics in characteristics section.
3 Key figures in COLUMNS section
Nothing in ROWS section
Drill down in Bex yields characteristic values in rows, and key figures in columns (appears to be perfectly normal behaviour)
Drill down in Web yields characteristic values ACROSS the columns and key figures ACROSS the columns (not expected)
Objective is get to Web result to behave identical to Bex results where characteristic values display in rows, and key figures display in columns
Thank you.

Hi
Go to WAD and check for the Web items under Navigation.. and the result table.
you will find the options for the same.

MDX query - need to run different query (where clause) on mondays

The below query works OK and uses the substitution variable CurrentWeek in the WHERE clause, but I have one shortcoming that I need your help for:
The query works fine for all days but mondays. On Mondays I need the query to fetch numbers from last week (as opposed to current week) as the query returns null as the cubes have no data for current week on mondays. Hence I need to change the where clause to use substitution variable LastWeek, or in some other way run a different query on mondays. I have another substitution variable called WeekDay which I can use to test which day of the week it is, but I am not sure of the syntax I need to use to test for day of week and then have the query use different substitution variables as a result of this test.
Please help.
Henning Strand
SELECT NON EMPTY {[Measures].[meas_sg]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {[Kunde],[Kunde].[KU01],[Kunde].[KU02],[Kunde].[KU03],[Kunde].[KU04]} ON ROWS
FROM MIFS.MIFS
WHERE ([Marked].[Dagligvare],[Tid].[&CurrentWeek])

Or to go off of Sean's suggestion, programmatically change the value of the substitution variable, and leave the code alone.
Other thoughts -- have a load process to a single cell (sorry, my BSO roots are showing, but the concept is the same, load a single number) and then do a boolean test off its value -- 0 = Monday, 1 = the rest of the week.

Report with drill-down needs to start display at lowest level

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is in the correct forum but I'm hoping that a moderator will move it to the correct area if there is a better place for this.
I have a report working that shows Master Project information, drills to Projects information and then to Tasks information and this is woking correctly.
For example:
Master Project A
    Project A1
         Task A1-a
         Task A1-b
         Task A1-c
    Project A2
         Task A2-a
         Task A2-b
Master Project B        and so forth.
This works great; the report opens and shows all the data at the Master Project Level (Master Project A & B), the customer clicks on the Master Project name and the Master Project detail info is hidden and the Projects (A1 & A2) are displayed.
If one of these Project names is clicked, the Project detail info is hidden and the Tasks (A1-a, A1-b & A1-c) are displayed. Everything is great!
BUT, now the customer wants the display to start with the only the Master Project name and Project name displayed and all the Task information displayed. Then if they click on the Project name, the Task info is hidden and the Project detail info is
displayed. In other words, the reverse of the normal procedure.
I've attempted changing the hide/show on the groups, rows, anywhere I could think of and I cannot get it to display correctly. Can anyone come up with a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Tina

Reg:SSM KPI Drill Down (Once Click KPI need to display relevant measures)

Dear Friends
I have the enclosed requirement. Pl. suggest proper solution.
When we drill down need to display the calculated measures of respective KPI.
Here same KPI has different measures in drill down.
Does we need to have different KPIs or can we have different measures for single KPI as per dimension member
Pl. suggest
Rgds
SriG

Sri,
Are you saying that you have a KPI that has 2 dimensions but the 2 dimensions have completely different metric calculations so that the component metrics that that are combined to make your DIMM1 have no influence on you DIMM2?
If this is the case then I think you would need 2 separate KPIs which would have different structures.
There is no problem combining multiple metrics together to create a KPI and even incorporating calculations into that combination.
To use an example from the insurance world: Combined Operating Ratio is derived by combining net claims, net commissions and net expenses, each of which is derived from multiple data elements and each of these metrics can be dimensioned by for example product, channel, region.

Issue to drill down from a report

Hi,
Our requirement is we need to show three different graphs in a single report representing different data, from that we need to drill down to a new different report ;
Two approaches we tried with crystal report are;
1. We put three graphs and the table in the single report and tried to implement drill down for each graph. We could group data on the basis of first pie chart data and could drill down. But while we tried to group data for second bar chart grouping is happening only as a sub group of first group. Ie, we cannot group data independently for different charts.
2. In the second approach we created different 3 sub reports and added in to a main report. But Crystal report is not supporting sub report to a sub report. Ie, we cannot go to drill down report.
It would be a great help, if you could suggest some solution.
Thanks,
Jomy

Hi,
As per my understanding, you have one report say Parent1 (SA1) and one Report say Child1 (SA2), now you want to pass some values from parent1 to child1.
1> Create 1 interim report from parent1.
2> In your Child report in filter part use result based on another analysis.
Please let me know if it resolves yourissues.
Thanks

Drill Down Reports on Web CGI

I have a drill down report that runs with no problems on reports
runtime. When deployed on the web (we are using the Web CGI
interface) the report runs and is displayed in the browser in
Acrobat as it should. However, the button for the drill down is
not available - it shows on the screen but is not pushable.
Is there any work around for this?

NEED DRILL DOWN REPORTS IN APPS

Hi
I need to generate drill down reports in oracle apps.
Is drill down reports work in Apps?
If it is possible please reply me, please send any document reference on drill down reports
Thanks & Regards
Adina

Hi,
What do you mean by drill down reports in Oracle Apps. Do you mean using Reports Developer. It cant be done, that is why the need of Discoverer reports. Discoverer reports can be run ( viewer ) from applications but generally associated with a separate responsibility. You can drill down from there..

Drill down on direct database request

Hi all,
I would like to know if its possible to drill down in a table created with a direct database request. I've created the direct request and run it perfectly, but drilling down is not enabled and I, even thought I've looked for it, I couldnt find any option to enable it. I've also checked privileges just in case it had something to do with this, but didnt see anything neither.
To sum up, could anyone tell me if drilling down is possible in direct database request and, if so, how can I achieve it?
Thank you very much in advanced for any kind of help.

NO!!!!!!!!!!
You Direst SQL query should contain the url
ex:
SELECT COL1,COL2,
'<a href=http://obiapps:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Go&Path=/Answers&path=%2Fshared%2FAppslink%20Dashboards%2F_portal%2FAppslink%20Dashboards%2FEmployee%20Department=Navigate&P0='+BUSINESS_GROUP_NAME+' target=_new>'+BUSINESS_GROUP_NAME+'</a>
FROM TABLE
then go for the column format
Note: in MS SQL + is for concat, you might have to change based on your db.

Use different Layouts for Summary and Details in Drill down report

Hi All,
I have a 2 level drill down report in ALV.
The summary report has certain fields and the Detail report has different fields. Now my problem is that when i use a default layout (with all fields of summary report) for the summary report, and drill down to the detail report i'm missing the fields on detail that are not in Summary. And if i save the default layout as default (with all fields of Detail) and go back to sumary, I'm missing the some other fields on summary (which are not on detail report).
Is there a way to make different default layouts for each of those summary and detail reports:
Also as the layouts are choosen by the user, i cannot hardcode any particular layout;
So if the user chooses a layout for detail; it has to stay the same layout for the detail report if he goes to summary and then back to detail; unless the user changes the layout again.
I'm using two different Layout types for each report. but i still cannot get the desired effect.
Data:
 gt_layout_s type slis_layout_alv,
 gt_layout_d type slis_layout_alv,
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_s
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_summary.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_d
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_detail_disp.

Here is how you differentiate between the layout of two different grids. There is the parameter, IS_VARIANT in the function. You usually leave it empty or pass only the report name and username. What you need to do is to pass unique string for each grids to the HANDLE field of the parameter IS_VARIANT. You can probably hard code it as HEADER and DETAILS in your case. Once that is done, system identified that these two different layout for different grids.

Ravi

Calculation of KFs at query run-time based on Characteritics Drill-down

Hello All,
I have an Important Issue which I need to solve but got stuck.
The report requirement is that we need calculate the KF values based on the drill-down selection in the report at run-time.
Say for eg: if the user is drilling-down the report by customer, plant or company code or any thing else other than material group...we need to calculate / Include KF values for only Materail Group = "A" and if we are at the materail group level we need to calculate all the material groups which includes A, B, T and so on.
Please suggest what are the avialable options for me like using virtual key figures. please provide me with some sample codes.
your help will be highly appricated.

In VOV8 as far as i understood by your query you are asking about the following :
Enter Purchase Order number - This indicator checks for the purchase order number and if you dont enter the purchase order number then system will consider the sales document number as purchase order number
Check Purchase order number - If you check then system will check wheather the purchase order number existed or not for this sales document type

Howto drill down to different hirerachies

Hi all
I have a geography dimension with 4 different type of hierarchies.In the business model those 4 hierarchies share the same parent(WorldWide) and the same lowest level(Store).
In the presentation model I create those 4 hierarchies by dupplicating the parent level and the lowest level.
When I test my report I notice that from the parent level(WW) I always drill down to the same hierarchy even if i'm in a different hierarchy.
My question : is it possible to define to wich hierarchy the drill down must occure.
If it's not possible howto disable the parent level drill down?
Regards

Unfortunaltly it's not what I need I already saw this post.
I succeed to find a solution temporally i disabled the drill down link in the report by using javascript
this is the link if someone need it

OBIEE error on Drill-down : Unable to navigate requested expression

Hi Gurus,
While trying out drill-down, am facing the folllowing error message - State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 14026] Unable to navigate requested expression: XXX Time.YYY Month. Please fix the metadata consistency warnings. (HY000)
I searched for the solution and found that we need to define an aggregated measure of a dimension table. But I dont know how to do it as I have very less hands-on in OBI Admin Tool. Kindly help me by explaining in detail to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
To define an aggregated measure of a dimension table, complete the following steps:
*1.Create a new fact logical table with the physical dimension table as source.*
*2.Include all fields that should be aggregated as a measure of this new fact object.*
*3.Add an aggregation rule to the column*
*4.set the logical level of the other dimensions to the grand total level.*
Below, a sum aggregation rule :
for more info:
i.e:
put the measure indicated by the error message in a fact table object.

b) Include all fields that should be aggregated as a measure of this new fact object.
