Drill down to other dimensions

Hi,
I'm faced with some users that are used to being able to drill down to other dimensions in BEx reports from free characteristics. For example - Adding Cost Centers to Profit Centers in rows.
Is there an elegant way to handle this with BPC reports?
Br,
Sonni

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.

SmartView 11.1.2.2-drill down with attribute dimensions

In Smartview 11.1.2.2.300, we have noticed that if we exclude attribute dimensions from our report, then we are able to drill down to Bottom level on all our reports; but if there are attribute dimensions listed, then it throws errors. Is it an option to drill down to bottom level, while keeping the attribute dimensions in the report? Thanks.

According to Oracle that still relates to a timeout error: SmartView Error "XML Load Error: DTD is prohibited [ID 1059964.1]
Update the registry on the client machine with the following settings:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ReceiveTimeout"=dword:00075300
"KeepAliveTimeout"=dword:000493e0
"ServerInfoTimeout"=dword:000493e0
You may need to reboot, I've seen it make a difference without the need.
Is this an FDM connection?
Anyway try that.

Drill-down to other oracle applicaitons

Hi!
I am new to HTML DB. Is there a way to drill down other other oracle application pages (with different application frameworks, ie OA Framework) from a HTML DB Report?
Regards,
Shahin

Shahin,
When you situate a link on a report line, the link is available to click on and when you do so you'll go wherever it leads. However, there is no automatic linkage between your application and other applications, whether the supporting technologies are common or disparate, beyond that which you deliberately plan for and implement, for example, in the area of authentication, session management, reciprocal awareness of application cookies, and inter-application navigation. But without doing anything special in these areas, you could provide a link to an Oracle apps page in your HTML DB report. When the link is clicked, the user might have to authenticate and when they're finished with the app, they might have to use browser window/navigation controls to continue using the HTML DB app, but that might meet your requirements.

Workspace error when drilling down on Essbase Cube

An Interactive Reporting Service error has occurred.-Failed to acquire requested service.
(2001)
We're trying to create OLAP queries in IR to deploy through workspace. When I drill down on any dimension, after deploying to workspace, I get the generic error above. Has anyone seen this error?

I have created one report using Essbase cubes in OBIEE11G and when I am archiving the same report at one local server and unarchiving it at some other server then at the other server I am facing this error.
Any replies will indeed be helpful.

Drill down to a fact detail

I am trying to figure out how to drill down from a dimension heirarchy to a fact detail. It just does seem to work. I have
Manager
---Project manager
Then projects facts
The totals by project manager work well, but I tried creating another level below manger and add some detail, but get errors that a level with more detail exists from a different table. The only thing which seem to get close is if I select a different drill path from a dimension which has the project number in it. Thats almost it.
Any simple ideas :)

Hi,
This issue occurs when you have not set the logical level of the fact sources correctly. When you adda detail level under the
Manager
---Project manager
you need to change the logical mapping level in the fact table. The steps to do so is provided below:
Say you have the dimension table manager. You add a detail column in the hierarchy details under Project manager.
Now you go to the Fact table from where you are getting the data.
Step1> In The BMM layer of RPD click the + sign beside the projects fact table. It will list the columns and the sources folder.
Step2> click the + sign beside the sources.
Step3> Select the appropriate table from(for example projects) which you need the detail data.
Step4> Double click the source table. Go to Content tab.
Step5> In the Manger Dim table select the Detail column name in the logical level field.
Save the RPD and this will solve your issue.

BPC 7.0 drill down missing values

Hi,
in our reports when we drill down trought a dimension,
we have missing rows.
For exemple:
LEVEL 1 - TOTAL 100
LEVEL 2A - TOTAL 80
LEVEL 2B - TOTAL 5
we have LEVEL 2C missing with TOTAL 15
the reason seems to be that there is another dimension named "2C" which has nothing to do with this hierarchy.
If we only secodn level we have:
LEVEL 2A - TOTAL 80
LEVEL 2B - TOTAL 5
MATERIAL_LEVEL 2C - TOTAL 15
BPC is putting a prefix to "2C" because "2C" is also a customer...
is it possible?

Please create a customer message from the SAP Service Marketplace and report this potential bug with drill-down. As mentioned when a dimension member is not unique BPC will prefix the member with dimension name and I suspect this is causing the issue when related to drill-down.
Thanks

How do I create a drill down for my summary data?

I have 7 fields of summary data with all having a common link called the customer account number.
I have tried the following steps several time carefully and was unable to get my drill down to work.
Insert menu > Group and chose the customer account number as my group field
copy and paste the summary fields to the group header ( which I now have hundreds of GH1)
Right click on the details section and chose Hide.
Suppress the Group Footer
File Menu > Report options and check on Show All Headers on Drill Down.
I must be missing a step somewhere here. I end up with no summary fields showing (to drill down into), and the customer account numbers showing.
Can some check this out for me?

hi Michael,
you need a group to have drill down. you can't drill down on a report footer. if you can't group by these categories then you can't have drill down.
your other option is to create an on demand subreport that you can open. i would suggest that you go through a bunch of the e-learning tutorials on crystal reports here. after that go to the online help for crystal reports and use the search tab and search for "creating an on demand subreport"
you'd need to create an on demand subreport for each total that you are showing. again, please see the elearning topics especially on subreports, grouping. and then do follow the steps on on demand subreports in the online help.

Sort control does not show in drill down ?

I have a sort control attached to a column header in one of my report and it works fine. However it does not show up in the drill down sections. Is there a way to fix that ?
Thanks

I am sorry if my question was not clear of i am misunderstanding your solution.
My sort control shows up in the grouped data but does not show up in the drill down page after drilling down. what can i do for the sort control to show up in the drilled down page

Drill down in reports

Hi,
when I want to work with drill downs is this only possible with using hierarchies for the neccessary characteristics?
I'm working with SAP BW 3.5 and 7.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: saplaz on Jun 23, 2010 11:11 PM

The report shows for example:
Risk class 1 customerX 500 Dollar
                    customerY 300 Dollar
                    customerZ 200 Dollar
                    Sum 1000
after drill down
Risk class 1.1 customerX 500 Dollar
Sum 500
Risk class 1.2 customerY 300 Dollar
Sum 300
Risk class 1.3 customerZ 200 Dollar
Sum 200
The thing is that I only want to see one row with the risk class like that:
Risk class 1 1000 Dollar
after the drill down the other rows should appear
Rc 1.1 customerX 500 Dollar
Rc 1.2 customerY 300 Dollar
Rc 1.3 customerZ 200 Dollar
Any ideas how this could be done?

Export current view or drill down report

Post Author: Rainer
CA Forum: Exporting
My Enviroment: CR XI, Delphi, ActiveXReportViewer Hello together,how can I export the current view or a drilled down report with the COM object.I didn't find a way to get the current view object (IReport) I think there must be a solution, because the default export method can export the current view.Thanks Rainer

My setup isn't exactly the same but this might help you: I had this problem with Crystal.Net in Visual Studio 2005. This link helped me resolve it. http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/1956
My export routine used to just export the ReportDocument object. But this object does not contain any information on the currently displayed group level. So when I built a report modeled very closely after the sample 'World Sales Report.rpt' my export routine would only export the main view even if I was drilled down into other group levels of the report. I learned that the CrystalReportsViewer object is what contains the drill-down level in the ViewInfo.ViewContext object. So the link above solved this for me.
As a side note, I also had to manipulate suppressing and unsuppressing sections on export which can't be done via the CrystalReportsViewer object. So I had to save a copy of the current ViewInfo object to local variable. Then I modified the ReportDocument object to unsuppress and suppress certain sections. Then I set this modified ReportDocument object as the RecordSource of the CrystalReportsViewer object and passed as parameters the new NonHTTPCachedReportSource object and the saved ViewInfo object to my new export routine. This allowed me to preserve the drill-down view properties but apply it to a different ReportSource. I can supply (c#) code if needed. ( I don't usually show the ReportHeader or PageFooter sections in my online view of reports but I need to show them when I export a report)...

Drill down from a line graph? Make the entire graph click-able?

Guys, i can drill down from other types of charts except a line chart.
Is there anything that is special about the line chart?
Also, can i make the entire graph click-able? So, instead of clicking on a bar to trigger a linked report, can the whole chart be a link basically?
Thanks for your help

There is not special with the line graph..... Just click on the data symbol to drill or navigate. These settings can be found under the "additional Charting Option" button.
