Drill Down thru hyperlink and return

Hi,
In one of my report(REPORT A) I am drilling down using navigate to another report (REPORT B), and I have a "return" at the bottom of the report.
I am facing the following problem when i do this:
Step1: I am opening REPORT A and drilling down using the hyperlink from one of my column to REPORT B.
Step2: I am opening another report, REPORT C, which has NO connection to REPORT A or REPORT B.
Step 3: When I click the "return" link at the bottom of REPORT B, it takes me to REPORT C instead of REPORT A.
How can this be fixed? Please help. Thank you.

Hi Bifacts,
In that when you say "After I Open REPORT C", do you mean you "REPORT C" is provided as link on the dashboard page?
-- Yes, REPORT C is provided as a link in the same dashboard page.
this is what i understood from the first 2 points:
there exists a single dashboard page, where you have REPORT A initially displayed to user and REPORT C as a link.
-- REPORT A, is also provided as a link.
On "REPORT A" user is provided with a on click cell navigation to "REPORT B".
-- Yes
You say you can "return" back safely now.
-- Yes
But when you click on the "REPORT C" link you don't come back to the dashboard contiaining "REPORT A" and "REPORT C" link right??...now correct me if i am wrong.
-- At this point let us assume I have clicked on REPORT A, and it pops up my dashboard prompts and I input values, it displays my report, and from the report, I drilled down and now I also have REPORT B up. Now I click the link to REPORT C, and input values thru the dashboard prompts of REPORT C, and REPORT C is also up in a seperate window. After this I go back to my REPORT B, and click return, instead of returning back to REPORT A, it returns me back to REPORT C's dashboard prompts.
-- In another scenario, if I click on REPORT C's link, and the dashboard prompts for REPORT C comes up, I input values and display REPORT C, then I click on REPORT A, and input values in REPORT A's dashboard prompts and drill down to REPORt B and click on the return in REPORT B, i safely return back to REPORT A.
-- The problem is the return takes me back to the last opened(clicked thru link) report, instead of always taking me from REPORT B to REPORT A as only these two reports are related using cell navigation.

Line Chart cannot drill down on legends and lines

I am doing a drill down Group report which will show the Sum of Last year's Sales By Country, State and city over a period of time(by date) for throughout the year 2007. Every group will have a line chart with Data title as Sum of Last year's Sales ($), Group Title as Date and legends displaying countries (or states or cities) as USA,UK,Australia. etc.. I have same sort of line chart for State and City as well. So, I got 3 levels of groups with a line-chart displayed in every group level.
Now, the problem is my drill down would not work on chart lines or legends as it would do for a 2-dimensional data chart like a bar-chart or pie-chart. In the Chart Expert->Data->Layout:Group ->in the On Change Of event selection I am able to specify either Sales.Country (or) Sales.country and Sales.Sales.State. Both options would not let me get the correct linechart with correct data and drill-down working as well.
The only work-around i got is to display the line chart with legends and showing the Country(or State or City) names in a field in the Group Footer. The drilling will work on those fields, but not on the legends or lines of the line chart. This make my report showing the Country names twice once on legend (with no drill-down) and once on group-footer(with drilling ability to groups below) which is untidy.
Have anyone tried to make a drill-down crystal report on a 3-dimensional data like this? The World Sales report in Crystal reports C:\Program...\BO\Samples\General Business\World Sales Report is the best example of how i would like to see my charts to drill down. However, they drill down across a 2-dimensional data. I am publishing this Crystal Reports in Business Objects Infoview.

Please re-post if this is still an issue

Xcelsius Drill Down With Column and Line Chart

Hi Guys,
I am working on an Xcelsius 2008 Dashboard. I would like to integrate two charts, a column and a line chart. The column chart is supposed to show the results for each quarter. With a selector it changes the view and name of the different numbers.
Then I would like to enable the drill down so that I can see the results for the three months of the corresponding quarter in the line chart. Is that somehow possible? I am totally lost. Thanks for your help.
Kind Regards,
Maurice

Hi Maurice,
You cannot integrate a column chart and line chart to make drill down possible. You could drill down a column chart to show the values in another chart bt that would be just two different charts and not an integrated one.

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!

Can Discoverer drill down include summary and details?

Let's say I have a set of bonds in different accounts.
Each bond has an account, product_type, rating_group and book_value.
I show an initial report with account and sum(book_value).
then I want to "Drill to related" to see the sum of book value by rating group.
When I do this, I no longer have the total book value for the whole account. I just have it for each rating group within the account. I want to be able to still see the sum of the book value for all rating groups and also see how it's broken out by rating group.
For example:
I start with this:
Account | Book Value
C-BASS | $1M
Then I drill to related -> "Rating Group" and it looks like this:
Account | Rating Group | Book Value
C-BASS | AAA | $0.5M
C-BASS | AA | $0.25M
C-BASS | A | $0.25M
I want it to look like this (or something like this):
Account | Rating Group | Book Value
C-BASS | All | $1M
C-BASS | AAA | $0.5M
C-BASS | AA | $0.25M
C-BASS | A | $0.25M

Clicking on Hyperlinks and returning to page

How can visitors return to the page on my website after clicking on a link?

Hello,
back and forward buttons you will find in all web browsers (here screenshot of my German IE8):
But, and I remember a hint from Nancy O.: "But if you still think you need this, see the following demo for details.
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/History-links.shtml"
On the other hand it depends which DW HP insert you have chosen (screenshot of my German DW):
See Adobe help:

_blank loads the linked file into a new, unnamed browser window.
_parent loads the linked file into the parent frameset or window of the frame that contains the link. If the frame containing the link is not nested, the linked file loads into the full browser window.
_self loads the linked file into the same frame or window as the link. This target is the default, so you usually don’t need to specify it.
_top loads the linked file into the full browser window, thereby removing all frames.
and please try the different options.

Can we have feature like this in crystal report XI, say i have 4 to 5 columns in a report. i need to show the first column as a hyperlink. when the user click this hyperlink, i need to show a separate report with details regarding to the hyperlink item.

Is the Source report data is from a data source or is it static?You can do hyperlinking in both types of reports. First, design the target report. From Source report, by selecting Hyperlink options, you can link the report.

My photos will not load on the iPhone. Both directly accessing 'Photos' and from 'Camera roll' results in applications shutting down by itself and returning to home screen

Help please

Ighnot, are you jailbroken? Cause I am and I have the same problem except worse. I can't save a single pic, every single time I get the thumbnail grey box with jpg in it and the actual pic is black. Only way I get pic is by zooming in then taking screenshot and I still get the stupid safari toolbox and address bar in the pic

Poor performance with WebI and BW hierarchy drill-down...

Hi
We are currently implementing a large HR solution with BW as backend
and WebI and Xcelcius as frontend. As part of this we are experiencing
very poor performance when doing drill-down in WebI on a BW hierarchy.
In general we are experiencing ok performance during selection of data
and traditional WebI filtering - however when using the BW hierarchy
for navigation within WebI, response times are significantly increasing.
The general solution setup are as follows:
1) Business Content version of the personnel administration
infoprovider - 0PA_C01. The Infoprovider contains 30.000 records
2) Multiprovider to act as semantic Data Mart layer in BW.
3) Bex Query to act as Data Mart Query and metadata exchange for BOE.
All key figure restrictions and calculations are done in this Data Mart
Query.
4) Traditionel BO OLAP universe 1:1 mapped to Bex Data Mart query. No
calculations etc. are done in the universe.
5) WebI report with limited objects included in the WebI query.
As we are aware that performance is an very subjective issues we have
created several case scenarios with different dataset sizes, various
filter criteria's and modeling techniques in BW.
Furthermore we have tried to apply various traditional BW performance
tuning techniques including aggregates, physical partitioning and pre-
calculation - all without any luck (pre-calculation doesn't seem to
work at all as WebI apparently isn't using the BW OLAP cache).
In general the best result we can get is with a completely stripped WebI report without any variables etc.
and a total dataset of 1000 records transferred to WebI. Even in this scenario we can't get
each navigational step (when using drill-down on Organizational Unit
hierarchy - 0ORGUNIT) to perform faster than minimum 15-20 seconds per.
navigational step.
That is each navigational step takes 15-20 seconds
with only 1000 records in the WebI cache when using drill-down on org.
unit hierachy !!.
Running the same Bex query from Bex Analyzer with a full dataset of
30.000 records on lowest level of detail returns a threshold of 1-2
seconds pr. navigational step thus eliminating that this should be a BW
modeling issue.
As our productive scenario obviously involves a far larger dataset as
well as separate data from CATS and PT infoproviders we are very
worried if we will ever be able to utilize hierarchy drill-down from
WebI ?.
The question is as such if there are any known performance issues
related to the use of BW hierarchy drill-down from WebI and if so are
there any ways to get around them ?.
As an alternative we are currently considering changing our reporting
strategy by creating several higher aggregated reports to avoid
hierarchy navigation at all. However we still need to support specific
division and their need to navigate the WebI dataset without
limitations which makes this issue critical.
Hope that you are able to help.
Thanks in advance
/Frank

Hi Henry, thank you for your suggestions although i´m not agree with you that 20 seconds is pretty good for that navigation step. The same query executed with BEx Analyzer takes only 1-2 seconds to do the drill down.
Actions
suppress unassigned nodes in RSH1: Magic!! This was the main problem!!
tick use structure elements in RSRT: Done it.
enable query stripping in WebI: Done it.
upgrade your BW to SP09: Has the SP09 some inprovements in relation to this point ?
use more runtime query filters. : Not possible. Very simple query.
Others:
RSRT combination H-1-3-3-1 (Expand nodes/Permanent Cache BLOB)
Uncheck prelimirary Hierarchy presentation in Query. only selected.
Check "Use query drill" in webi properties.
Sorry for this mixed message but when i was answering i tryied what you suggest in relation with supress unassigned nodes and it works perfectly. This is what is cusing the bottleneck!! incredible...
Thanks a lot

Pivot and chart drill down

Hi ,
Could anyone please let me know how to drill down in pivot and related chart report .
As because when I drill i get a table view instead of chart.
Regards,
Megha

Hi,
I believe you are trying to show chart of your pivot table as well in your pivot view. I tried and I can drill down from both chart and its pivot table.
You need to select drill option under Interaction tab of Additional Charting Option properties of this chart. Save your report and see if drill down in pivot table and in chart in the Pivot view is working.

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.

Hierarchy drill down issue at the lowest level

Hi,
In OBIEE 11.1.1.5 I face an issue with drill down to lowest level of presentation hierarchy (expanded by "+" in report). It happens only for combination of 2 dimensions presentation hierarchies in analytics report (parent-child organizational structure + level based product categorization). Aggregated date comes from OLAP but lowest level product information comes from relational database and this details are not displayed.
First I drill to particular sales rep in organizational structure. Then for that sales rep I need to drill down product hierarchy and it works except lowest level of details. At the lowest level of product hierarchy, query sent to database (I have it from logs) return proper results (checked directly in db) but report behaves the way like there are no details at the lowest level and product details are not displayed.
Both (Organizational structure, Product) dimension presentation hierarchies works ok at all levels when used separately. Also product hierarchy works well at all levels (including OLAP->relational drill) when used togather with other level-based hierarchies in subject area.
I am wondering what I could have done wrong...
Advices are very welcome!

Hierarchy keys are set properly and "use for display" is checked.
Dimension presentation hierarchies does not work only when I use particular two hierarchies togather in one report table. When each of hierarchies is displayed separately it works ok.

Drill Down problem is query

Hi,
We are having a query based on a MultiProvider having a cube and a DSO. The query returns results without any problem.
But, the moment we try to drill down by a few of the navigational attributes of a particular characteristic, the drill down takes forever.
We had the "posted value" settings for the navigational attributes originally; we have also tried with the " master data" option, but,that did not help.
At the backend, for the above mentioned navigation, we see an index scan happening on the DSO. We could perhaps try creating indices on the fields that the users are trying to drill down by. But, this will not be a good option as we have keep guessing all such fields that they might be using and cause an additional overhead.
Incidentally,the same navigation used to yield results in 10 s sometime back before there was an application of an Oracle patch. It has stopped working as earlier ever since this was done. Our basis team has looked into the issue but they dis not find anything different at the database side due to this.
I have been looking through the forum to check if I can see anything related but I have not come across any solution that relates directly to this problem so far.
Any input on this is much appreciated.
Thank You,
Anjana

Hi Anjana,
Check your DSO setting was checked for SID generation upon activation or not. If it unchecked then your report will run very long time because of no indexes.
Try your report with the fields you are drill down indefault view and see how much time report is running. So you will know whether it is dril down problem or huge data problem. Try to keep as many as filters as per user.
Thanks.

Drill Down Charts Backed by JAVA

Hi,
I am from java background, but I had developed simple projects mostly CURD operations and just a simple chats using Spring Blazeds.
But now I want to develop dash board and drill down charts. I have seen some sample , where the data is an XML which is mapped to flex objects and drill down is done.
But what I know is just call a remote java method which returns a map or list which I get as a Array collection.
Is it possible to acehive drill down with such java return type or does java need to return results only in XML, so drill down can be easy at flex end.
what is the best way to do ?
Almost all the examples comes with an static xml file available for the application, It would be great if any one can tell how to drill down using a List returned by java or any example of drill down backed by java.
Thanks

You can try using the Data Centric Development (DCD) features of FB 4.0 and try using BlazeDS and LCDS workflows and bind the result to Flex Charts.
This can help http://sujitreddyg.wordpress.com/category/flex-and-lcds/

Incorrect Values in Drill down

Hi All,
I have created a query on Incoming orders, Invoiced qty, Returns etc on Multiprovier.
When I I drill dwon, with each drill down the report is showing different values. For example, in inital screen it is showning Returns 1 qty. But when I drill down there are no returns. I checked in R/3 side and for the specified documents there are no returns. So, how in initial screen is it showing 1 qty as returns.
Please its very urgent.
Regards
Jay

Hi
Sales doc number is the only primary key based on which orders have been separated as open orders, return orders etc......which contains order qty, returend qty..delvered qty..billed qty etc......
So ensure that Sales doc and other drilldown options are present in both the cube and ODS....then data will come correctly....
The reason why now data coming incorrectly could be.....
ODS and cube data are different and clubbing in infoprovider will result in aggregation....
To ensure everything is properly mapped check in identification tab in multiprovider...
Assign points if useful
Cheers
