Drill Down Time Dimension

Hi All.
I have a time dimension from Year to Date (day). And I have the defined the key and a description for each level except Year, when click Year then makes the drill down to month, but in table appears the key, a numeric value, so I would like to present in answers and charts not the key, the description.
Imagine you have a table like this:
Year | Amount
2008 | $1,000
Then you click in 2008.
2008 | 2008-01 | $500
2008 | 2008-02 | $500
In my table dimension I have a description for the month in other column and that's what I need to show.
2008 | January 2008 | $500
2008 | February 2008| $500.
Regards.

Drag the description col into the dim hierarchy at the appropriate level. Make it a logical key and available for drilldown ... remove the drilldown option from the other key.

  • Optimization of Drill Down time to Base level members

    Hi All,
    I have built a Balance Sheet Lead Sheet in which I need to show all the Entities in rows which have values for a particular Balance Sheet Account.What I am doing is providing the Entities structure at Consolidated level and then allowing users to Drill Down to base level entities but the problem is that while drilling down to last level of entity member it takes whole lot of time.I can understand that the Application will take time in returning the response on fly after suppressing the zero rows but is there any way of applying some optimization techniques to this either at FR level or HFM level.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Drill Down OnSelect in Chart

    Hi ,
    I have tried drill down the Dimension objects to necessary flow.
    I have succeed with One level , But I cant able to moveto next level of dimensions..
    Eg :
    Profit Center  - > Region.
    But I need to drilldown further two more levels ( Sub - region , Sub region 2 ).
    Used the following attached code for One level drill down. I want  further drill down to dimension with button which will back on each level.

    Hi,
    You can do this with pagebook .
    Add PageBook in your Dashboard .
    Add 4 Pages .
    Add chart on each page (there will be 4 Charts & 4 DS in The Dashboard).
    1st : Profit Center & Measure
    2nd : Region & Measure
    3rd : Sub - region  & Measure
    4th : Sub region 2 & Measure
    Now Pass The Selected member from 1st chart to filter DS of 2nd chart .
    & set SelectedPageIndex(1) //considering0 as page 1 .
    Do the same for other 2 charts (2nd & 3rd ).
    Add back button in each page (SelectedPageIndex(PreviousPageNumber)).

  • 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."

  • Advanced template to drill down from one dimension to another

    Dear all:
    Situation
    I am trying to create an report that displays my Accounts by month. In addition, after I double-click each account (if it is a base member), it drills down to open Entity (in my case Cost Center) associated with that Account number. In the Entity drill-down section, once the Entity becomes a base member, it drills down to IO (internal orders) associated with a particular cost center.
    Data
    1. I tried to manipulate existing "Double Drill Down" dynamic template, and disabled the column expansion (because my columns consist of months of actual vs. budget and some ratio calculation). The problem is that after I drilled down, my EVGTS formula was not replicated in the other dimension
    2. I tried to integrate EVEXP into EVDRE but was unsuccessful too... The expansion worked as if everything got expanded at the same time.
    Question
    Is my approach correct? Is this an even good practice to do, or I should keep it as standard as possible?
    Thank you!
    Have a great day!
    Sincerely,
    Brian

    The double-drill down dynamic template accommodate my need, except I didn't modify the report to my format correctly.

  • Drill Down error with more than one dimension

    Hello
    I'm using AWM 10.2.0.3.0A with Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 and i can't perform drill down operation when i have more than one dimension in the same axis. That is, when i have two dimensions, a can't perform drill down on both dimenions at the same time, but only one at a time.
    Would anyone ever had this problem? What can be?
    Thanks
    Luciano

    Hello Brijesh
    I succeed do this operation in other works, but not this. After performing drill down in the first dimension, i clicked on the second dimension and nothing happens.
    It doesn't emit any error message.
    Normally should be able to view the data calculated for the two dimensions. I have 6 small dimensions tables (average of 700 records). I don't know what can be.
    Thanks,
    Luciano

  • BPC 7.5 MS Drill Down works on one dimension in rows but not the other

    Good day,
    Working in BPC 7.5 MS.  I have a piped report with 3 dimensions in rows.  Members in the first dimension are hard-coded in the expand range.  The second dimension is a combination of SELF and DEP members.  The third is set to SELF.  In our original AppSet, I can double-click drill down on both the second and third dimensions without issue.
    I've re-created this report in a new AppSet (same BPC version).  All settings are essentially identical (I've double and triple checked).  The drill down works on the second dimension, but not the third.  I've run out of places to look to find the problem.  Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kim

    It took a while but I finally found some quiet time to re-visit this issue.  Thank you for the suggestions above.  Ultimately I verified that the hierarchy, member selection and tables were all ok.
    My next step was to create a new EVDRE with the same members and slowly factor in the piping, membersets, etc.  Drill down worked appropriately.  So that told me something else was at work.
    Turns out the problem was with one of the 'display' columns to the right of the row key range.  These columns use formulas to display a triangle if the member isn't calc, thus giving the end user a visual clue that you can drill down on the member.  Long story short, BPC just didn't like that formula.  A minor change (along with some conditional formatting to replace the piece of formula that was removed) eliminated the problem.  Drill down is now working.

  • Same dimension twice as drill down

    Hii
    Is it possible to have one dimension more than once in a report as drill downs? Now I have one dimension called BRANCH, which has levels region, area and branch. I want to drill down based on region, area and branch separately.
    Is it possible? Please help me..
    Aneesh

    Hi Magnus,
    If you had Order No. as the first element in your Webi table and Parent ID in the second.
    Then you use the Analysis - Outline feature (which is like Groups / Sub Gruops in Excel).
    The down side of this is that you can only open up one Order No. at a time!
    With regards

  • Drill-down to multiple columns at same time

    Hello,
    Is it possible to simultaneously drill down to multiple columns on the same level with one click? I have several attributes that the user will want to see together at all times, so I want to be able to drill from level1 to level2a,2b, and 2c with one click.
    Thanks,
    Elliot

    This drilling down to all the levels may not be available with the OBIEE drill level based hierarchy feature OOTB but as an alternative you can try this at you DB level to create a hierarchy within you data using START WITH and CONNECT BY PRIOR to generate the parent->child levels hierarchy within the view instead of creating multiple hierarchical columns.
    Or may be you can try to create separate columns in a table for each hierarchy level. That table could either be in the database or be a logical one in the repository. For example:
    Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Description
    1 2A 3A
    1 2A 3B
    1 2B 3A
    1 2B 3B
    etc
    You then create separate reports for each level, so one report has only level1 in it for this dimension, another report has levels 1 an 2 and a third report has levels 1, 2 and 3 etc.
    In each report you put an action link on the levels' cells so that if you click on them you drill up or down by displaying a new report with either less or more level columns.
    Hope this helps. Pls mark if it does.
    Thanks,

  • Drill down more than one characteristic at the same time.

    Hi,
    Is there any way to drill down more than one characteristic at the same time?
    When I drill down by 0cust_sales I would like to have drilled down: division/distrchan/salesorg/cust_sales without having to do that one by one.
    thank you!

    Hi,
    This cannot be done unless these characterstics are related to each other in some way as Charactertics & Display Attributes.
    The reason being when you drill down the 0cust_sales , there is no link from 0Cust_sales to the other characterstics hence there is no prompt for these characterstics to be drilled down.
    However, a smiliar thing might be acheived by adding these chareacterstics into the 0cust_sales in teh query designer by dragging n dropping them over 0cust_sales. you can try this and see if this is close to your requiremetn.
    Kind Regards,

  • PowerView option - Drill Down one level at a time also hide the columns other than the hierarchy columns

    Hi All,
    I have a simple PowerView report (Excel 2013) in which I have a hierarchy (three columns), an image column, and a Value column:
    When I change the Show Levels option to "Rows - Enable Drill Down One Level at a Time", image column also hide.
    I want to keep the image column displayed while drill down/up to the hierarchy.
    Is it possible? If yes, then how?
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Muhammad,
    According to your description, you have images at child level. Now you want to have the images displayed when have the child level items collapsed. Right?
    In this scenario, when you show the data in a matrix in Power View, those images, Size ID and Prices have been added into a child group. If we enable drill down, all the items within the child group will be collapsed. We can't change it at all in Power
    View.
    For your requirement, we suggest you design your report using SQL Server Data Tools in Reporting Services. In Reporting Services, we can have specific columns toggled by the parent item.

  • Only Dimension Table Values in Combo Box or Drill Down Selections

    Hi All,
       How to get only Dimension Table Values instead of Master Data Values in Combo Box or Drill Down Box list of values?
    I am getting all the values in 0CALMONTH Combo Box where i need only infoproviders values.
    In Entry List tab of Combo Box when i select 0CALMONTH its reading from its Master Data.Is there any option how there is Dimension table in Value help.
    In Query, infoobject levels the filter values selection is set as infoprovider only.
    Can anyone please let me know how to get only dimension table values when we use combo box.
    Thanks & Regards
    K.Srinivas Rao

    Hi
    Create one BI query with only one object in the output of the query. (In your case 0CALMONTH)
    So now if when you run the query it will show values which are there in infoprovider. THen drag one form from output of this query in vc & create dropdown list on this.
    Is this what you are looking for?

  • Clicking Drill Down Plus Sympol its taking more time

    Hi ,
    In my drill-down  report having 2000 records while initially it takes 25 seconds to render the report after that when i click Plus symbol it takes again 20 secs to display the data.My question is in drill-down report for loading data it will hit one
    time to fetch data.So why its taking more time while clicking plus symbol the data already exits in datasets.
    So please tell me where i am doing mistake.
    Regards,
    HariKan

    Hi HariKan,
    According to your description, when you preview the drill down report, after you click plus sign, it takes 20 seconds to expand the detail information.
     The total time to generate a reporting server report (RDL) can be divided into 3 elements:
    TimeDataRetrieval: The time needed for SQL Server to retrieve the data of all datasets in your report.
    TimeProcessing: The number of milliseconds spent in the processing engine for the request.
    TimeRendering: The time spent after the Rendering Object Model is exposed to the rendering extension.
    After you click plus sign, Report rendering occurs after data and layout are combined into an interim format and then passed to a rendering extension. The time includes:
    Time spent in renderer.
    Time spent in width and height of report items.
    Time spent in paging.
    Time spent in all expression evaluation.
    For more information about report processing, please refer to the following document:
