Drill filters in Webi

Hello All,
I have the following requirement in Webi XIR 3.1..
I have a hierarchy defined as Country,State,City and Area..When i right click on Country,i have options to drill by which shows State,City and Area..I need to capture the option which the user clicks on drill by (either State,City,Area) so that i can display a table related to that particular dimension..
If i use DrillFilters function,it shows me the values of a particular dimension..This does not work out for my requirement..
Please let me know if there is any way to capture State or City or Area..
Thanks,
Sowrabha Sadanand

Hi Sowrabha,
Yes. You can achieve this functionality through "Drill Across" in WebI.
For this you need to create a separate hierarchy and link to main hierarchy in Universe level.

  • Drill Down and Drill UP on Web Analysis Report

    Hi all,
    I have a question regarding Drill down and Drill up on Web Analysis Report.
    The situation is the following:
    I've created a report with some account parent elements in row. The dimension account has a multiple hierarchy.
    I need to drill down on the child of these elements keeping the parente on top and so i've selected the option "Selected Member First".
    The drill down it's ok for the first drill to go on the next level but when i drill down once more to go on the next level of the selected member hierarchy the drill move this level out hierarchy.
    Can someone help me on this point?
    After that i've drilled just to the last level when i drill up on these elements to return on the previous level i note that in the report happens a strange thing:
    The Drill Up works fine but on the report appears another elements which is the same parent with anothe code/alias of another hierarchy instead of the Selected member.
    On this i've noted tha this 2 different parente have the same elements...I think that the children of the selected memeber can be shared members....Can be this the problem?
    Thanks for the help.

    Hi John,
    thanks for your answer.
    I've trayed to set the report on Smart View to virify tou test your advise.
    The situatio is the following:

    702000 - VEND. DI SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
    702010 - RETTIFICHE VENDITE SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO

    If I take only one parent member the drill up works fine but if i take all 2 memeber as above and i decide to drill up on one of the two element occur that the drill work for the two elements at the same time.
    Afetr the drill in this case the situation is:
    IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
    ED05101010-PUBBLICITA'
    Can be a problem due to shared memebers?
    Thanks for your help.

  • How to use linked filters in webi reports.

    Hii.. all
    I want to know how can i  use related or linked filters in webi reports.
    that means if i am using three diff filters as f1 for Zone f2 for location and f3 for sales office
    then if have selected a zone from the zone  filter (for ex west) then the location filter should show only the locations which comes under that zone and the third filter should show only those sales offices which comes under the selected location from the filter..
    Plz help..
    thanks

    hi Neeraj,
    1. In Universe Take Storename, city, State, region, Country objects
    2. Double click on Storename, go to properties tab and click on edit button. Query panel will open.
    3. Double click on city and click on sort button, double click on state and sort it, double click on region and sort it, double click on Country and sort it.
    4. If you want to keep any condition like particular country, you can drag country object in to the Conditions pane.  If not leave it empty.
    5.Click on Save and close button. Save the universe and export it.
    6. In webI drag and drop the Storename object and click on 'Add Quick Filter' button.  Now all the columns you included in the list of values appear in the Add Quick Filter dialog box.
    Now You can select the values from here and run the query.  you will get the result.
    One more way is there using cascading LOVs
    1. Go to Tools menu > List of values > Create Cascading list of values.
    2. Double click on Country, Region, State, City and Storename.  Close it.
    3. Save and export the universe.
    4. In webi drag and drop the objects in result objects pane, apply query filter and run the query.
    Now you will get the result.

    Hi,
    Try to create a Class e.g Time in universe and objects to that class as year, quarter,month as
    Year Object -> data type -> D/N
    select To_date('sysdate','YYYY) as year from dual
    Month object-> data type -> D/N
    select to_date)'sysdate','MM') as month from dual;
    Quarter -> data type -> D/N
    case when @select(Time/Month) in (1,2,3) then q1
             when @select(Time/Month) in (4,5,6) then q2
              when @select(Time/Month) in (7,8,9) then q4
               when @select(Time/Month) in (10,11,12) then q4
    endcase
    Then create a hierarch in tools -> hiearchy ->custom hierarchy and add the above class there then in any report (Deski/WebI)
    you will get the above hierarchy and use it according to your requirement.
    Cheers,

  • Problems with drill filters

    Post Author: srinath
    CA Forum: Publishing
    In BO XI, I am facing problems with drill filters. I have a report with eight tabs and each tab has data corresponding to a particular value in the drill filter. A particular value is selected from the drill filter and the corresponding data is displayed in each tab. I need to select a value from the drill filter and display the corresponding data in the tab; while doing so when i save the report and open it again, the data corresponding to the particular filter value is not present instead it displays all the data. The only other way i could solve this problem was by creating a report level filter in each tab but this doesnt seem to work in other reports. What is the proper way of using the drill filter in this case?

    How did you configure the filter?

  • Bex Free characteristic drill down in Web i report

    Hi
    I have a question, we are using bex query as source for our web i report.
    for that if you have an idea on Bex query analyzer, we can drill down on a free char list in bex and each and every drill down bex query go back to cube and fetches and refreshes the data based on the selection.
    In the same way can i get the same feature in Web i report, when i drill down my web i report should go back to the Bex query
    and should refresh the data.
    Any help in this regards is greatly appreciable
    Thanks in Advance,
    Swaraj.

    Hi,
    What you described is an OLAP 'slice and dice' type workflow - try the Analysis web application (in bi4.0 launch pad). WebI can do some drill down,  but it is really best at consuming small chunks of rowsets (not 'flattened' OLAP datasets)
    webi does go back to hit the database,  but only when you click "refresh".  so you can add a new object, and it sometimes says "#TOREFRESH" - then user refreshes to expand the scope of analysis.
    this process was automated in XI3.1 (where the interface didn't prompt for the refresh) and customers typically complained of slow response times. i.e. they didn't realise the inclusion of a results object fired a new query.

  • Drill Filters?

    Hello Experts,
    I have a report where there is some drilling in it.  In the report there are upward pointing arrows all throughout, and also there is a drill filter pane showing any drill filters present.  I know that if I turn drill mode off all of the arrows and drill filter pane go away.  I want to be able to show the drill filter pane, but not the arrows that are in every column and every cell within the report. These arrows are covering some of the values, and it just doesnt look nice.  The client likes that the drill filter pane is showing the dimensions with a dropdown menu, therefore I simply cannot just turn the drill mode off.  Is there anyway to just display the drill filter pane and not the arrows?
    I would really appreciate some advice on this.
    Thanks in advance,
    Niraj

    Hello Stratos/BOCP-BOE,
    Thank you for your responses! 
    The problem I have is that I do not have access to the universe, so I am unable to see/change how these objects are being exported to BOXI. 
    What I did as a workaround was, I created variables based on the exact objects then dragged these variables into the report, because we cannot drill up/down on variables.  I was able to keep the 'Drill Filter Pane' in the report while drill mode is on, and no arrows are showing(object was not underlined anymore).
    @ Stratos, I am using horizontal tables in the report on BOXI r2, puzzling why the arrows are in all of the cells rather than just the headers!
    Thanks again for your time and help. I will leave it unsanwered till end of day incase someone sees any ill-effect my workaround may pose.  Points have been assigned to both!
    Thanks,
    Niraj

  • Drill Filters In Block

    Hi All,
        I have created a report with two separate tables namely Block1 and Block2.
       I have enabled a drill filters in my report.It reflects both the blocks.
       But the requirements is,I need a drill filters only for my Block2.
       How can I achieve this?Can anyone please help to solve this?
    Regards,
    Maya

    You can use for Block1  the objects from the first query only.
    For example:
    =[Query1].[Region]
    and for block2 you use the merged dimension:
    =[Region]
    If it doesn't work you can try this other way of solving it (check this link):
    restrict drill downs in two blocks

  • Intialize value of drill filter in webi document

    I have a webi document that is saved in drill mode and I would like to set the value of the drill filter when the document is opened.  Is it possible to do this?  I haven't been able to figure how to do it.

    Hi
        You can get this by using a trick...........
    Using analytic context menu add a query filter (Here Select Your target object that you want to filter). And then select the value you want to get filtered from the drop down combo..........And finally save your report.  So when you/anyone will open this report, it will be opened with this filter........
    Hope it will help you.. any question please response..........

  • How to get the filters of Webi document/Report using Java code in XI SDK.

    Hi All,
       I have a requirement where i have to extrcat filters from the Webi Document.using java SDK.
    I am trying to find the class called "filterable"but not able to use in my java code and will get always
    "java.lang.ClassCastException  com.businessobjects.wp.om.OMDocument cannot be cast to com.businessobjects.rebean.wi.Filterable"
    I am using the below java code like
    ReportElement re=document.getStructure()
    FilterContainer flt=((Filterable) re).getFilter()
    I am stuck and need this in uregent.
    Please help.

    Hi Rajeev,
    To retrieve a FilterContainer you will need to traverse the report structure:
    ReportStructure boReportStructure = boDocumentInstance.getStructure();
    ReportContainer boReportContainer = (ReportContainer) boReportStructure.getReportElement(0);
    FilterContainer boFilterContainer = null;
    if (boReportContainer.hasFilter()) {
         boFilterContainer = boReportContainer.getFilter();
    } else {
         boFilterContainer = boReportContainer.createFilter(LogicalOperator.AND);
    Calling boDocumentInstance.getStructure() will retrieve the entire structure for the document.
    Calling boReportStructure.getReportElement(0) will retrieve the structure for the first report of the document.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Dan

  • Missing records when performing drill down in Webi

    Hello everyone!
    I have a Webi report over a OLAP universe (BEx query), in which I have, among other objects, company code, wage type with hierarchy and personnel number.
    I want to build a report with the following layout:
    Company code 1 | Employee 1 | Wage type hierarchy | Amount
    With this layout, when I try to drill down through the wage type hierarchy, the displayed values are not correct (some records are apparently missing).
    When I remove personnel number from both query and report, the displayed values are correct.
    Has anyone encontered a similar issue?
    Thanks in advance for your responses!

  • IP Filtering of web service operations

    Our customer has a very specific security requirement. They want to restrict access to web service (on a operations level) based on IP Address Filtering. Besides the question whether this is wise or not (IP Spoofing ?!?) we are researching whether this can be done easily in OSB 10.3
    You can do Connection Filter on a weblogic server level. As I understand this is application server wide So this is not usable for use.
    The only thing we can think of is doing it inside the service implementation itself. There you can extract the client-address from the inbound ($inbound/ctx:transport/ctx:request/http:client-address). We can check this IP address against a list of addresses we store in a custom list (some database or other store).
    Has anybody any other ideas? Is there a more elegant, less proprietary way to solve this? I already though of using access based control (XACML) but our customer does not want this (or cannot do it?!?). They cannot or will not put any identity inside the messages (usernames etc.)
    Regards
    Frank

    Hi Damorgan,
    Can we use sys_context to get the ipaddr of web users? I was under the impression that sys_context will be giving ipaddr of web server and not the user desktop ipaddr from where he is connecting to webserver via for eg IE.
