EIS - Essbase drill though issue

Hi
We are using Essbase 11.1.2 with EIS to build our BSO cube, and provide drill through to a SQL server database
Our drill-through has been working OK but now we have an issue where it stops working for a small number of cost centres
We get the first drill through panel for all cost centres (thedialog box that says : Linked object Browser, with oprions to 'View/Launch' etc), then, upon selecting 'View/Launch', for most Cost Centres we get a list a list of pre-written queries, but for a subset of cost centres we get 'There are no reports defined for the selected intersection'
Our BAU process is to reload our dimensions from files and then update the drill through in EIS , which we do several times a week
Anyone got any ideas why it should stop working only for certail cost centres ?
Thanks

Since I made the post I have explored some more. The SQL statements for the drill-though report definitions work with all cost centres, when I run them in a SQL console (SqlServer management console). But even when I create a new drill though report, it still only works only for the cost centres that previously worked successfully with the existing drill through reports. There is no signifigant difference in Essbase between the cost centres that work and the ones that dont , so I am completely stumped
HELP !

How to increase number of rows displayed in Essbase drill-through report?

Hi
By default, the maximum number of rows per Essbase drill-through report (via Integration Services) is set to 1000. Could anyone tell me how to change this limit please?
Regards
Chandra

Is this for an EIS drill through report that drills through to get RDBMS data, using spreadsheet add-in for example? If so check and see if "Maximum rows per query" in EIS is currently set at 1000 and try to increase it. (I don't recall hitting a 1000 limit in the past, perhaps your report is set at that? or if this is through Web Analysis maybe WA is governing it)
To set/change a query governor in EIS:
1     In the Drill-Through Reports dialog box, select a report name.
2     Click Edit to open the Report properties dialog box.
3     In the Report properties dialog box, select the Governors tab.
4     In the Maximum time per query (in seconds) text box, enter the maximum query time.
For example, to stop a query that takes longer than 100 seconds, type 100.
5     In the Maximum rows per query text box, enter the maximum number of rows to retrieve.
For example, to stop a query that retrieves more than 200 rows, type 200.
6     Click OK.

IE7 Drill down issue

Hi
I'm using discoverer
OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.2)
Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.54.25)
Did any one come up with a solution for the "drill down issues when using IE7" ? I have tried the patchset in the forum but of no use.
Thanks again

Hi
Are you using Java or Jinitiator and which version? Do you have other users on IE7 who are able to run ok? Then you might want to look at the operating system. Are we talking XP or Vista?
What we need to do is rule out various causes one by one. Then if all else fails you should raise a service request with Oracle.
Back in 2007 I posted something about drilling and IE7 on my blog: http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2007/03/discoverer-and-ie7.html
Here is the gist of that post: It seems Oracle have released a patch (5758865) , available on MetaLink, with the fix for IE7. This is a one-off patch and requires a password which means you will have to raise a service request and tell Oracle you are having trouble drilling in Viewer when using IE7. This patch is applicable whether you are using relational or OLAP modeling. The downside of this patch is that it can only be applied on top of 10.1.2.2. You can get the 10.1.2.2 patch (4960210) also on MetaLink. Be warned though that 10.1.2.2 is not a small patch. It is 1.6 GB in size and is a full upgrade of the 10.1.2.0.2 application server.
Is this one of the patches that you tried?
Best wishes

IE7 Drill down issues

Hi All,
we are having problems in disco viewer regarding the drill down issues when uisng the IE7, and i installed Jinitiator 1.3.1.26 and 1.3.1.28 and followed the following procedure based on the research i have done but still no results.
In IE7:
Tools, Manage Add-ons, Enable or Disable Add-ons
Show: Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer
Click on "shockwave flash object(flash9e.ocx)"
Click Disable, Okay
Restart Internet Explorer
Please any help will be great.
Thanks

If you are going to go through the effort to apply 10.1.2.2 patchset, then you might as well apply 10.1.2.3 patchset (the patchsets are cumulative) and the latest Discoverer cumulative patch. The issue is fixed there as well.
Note 237607.1 ALERT: Required and Recommended Patch Levels For All Discoverer Versions
There was a one-off patch that only supplied a new javascript file (BIPopupMenu.js) for the version you are on. That would be a quick fix, but again I would recommend the latest patchset to avoid many other issues you may face on this version.
Regards,
Steve.

Essbase Add-in and Office 2010 double clicking drilling down issue

We have Office 2010 and Essbase Add-in 6.5.4 and some users are having issues when double clicking to zoom in. When using the double-click to drill down, it flashes a few times and drills down to the lowest level even though it is setup to zoom to the next level. It works when you use zoom in from the menu and this doesnt happen to all the users. Does anyone have a fix for this issue?

We had similar issue but with lower versions of excel where a double click acts continously till the lowest level is reached for the member selected. Notice that all the members are not at the lowest level, it only happens for the current selected cell in excel.
In my case a re-install of add-in worked. Have you tried re-installing add-in. See that unistall is complete before re-installation. As you understand the problem is not with all machines/users, hence it should not be an issue with add-in.

Drill down issue ON ESSBASE

Hi Experts,
OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0,
the mutipdatasoure is ESSBASE 11.1.1.2
In Essbase databases we use the “code” as the Member name and the “description” in the Alias, when we click the Alias name in answer for drill down horizontally, it will generate the following error message, maybe the Alias column lead to this problem and do not find the exact value in ESSBASE member name. How to solve this issue?
Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 96002] Essbase Error: Unknown Member [Dim_Region].[China] used in query (HY000)
SQL Issued: SELECT 0 s_0, "Sales Cube"."Region"."Country Name" s_1, "Sales Cube"."Region"."Region Name" s_2, SORTKEY("Sales Cube"."Region"."Country Name") s_3, SORTKEY("Sales Cube"."Region"."Region Name") s_4 FROM "Sales Cube" WHERE ("Region"."Country Name" = 'China') FETCH FIRST 65001 ROWS ONLY
Note:
When we use “code” as the Member name for drilling down ,it will be successful.
In physical layer, we change member name into Alias default in display column area.
Code:
1001(Alias China+)
10011(Alis North+)
10012(Alis South+)

Any suggestions?

Essbase security sync issue with Shared Services v 11.1.2.2

Hi,
We are using Essbase version 11.1.2 (ESB11.1.2.2.102B025) and shared services version 11.1.2.2.300.6001 (Drop 6)
Foundation Services is on a cluster evironment, windows 2008 64 bit.
Essbase is on Unix Sun Solaris.
We encounter an issue in which each time a new user is added to a group.
The user will not have immediate access to Essbas. Currently the only time the
user will have access is when we restart essbase.
Is there a way to sync users from Shared Services without restarting Essbase?
Anyone has experience on this problem and may know what and where to look?
This is the error the user get, even though the group has access to essbase cube and the user
has been added to the group.
[Thu Jun 27 16:22:18 2013]Local/ESSBASE0///79/Error(1055126)
This user has no application access set. Please contact your system administrator
[Thu Jun 27 16:22:18 2013]Local/ESSBASE0///79/Error(1054067)
Internal error
[Thu Jun 27 16:22:18 2013]Local/ESSBASE0///79/Error(1051293)

[Thu Jun 27 16:22:18 2013]Local/ESSBASE0///79/Warning(1051003)
Error 1051293 processing request [Login] - disconnecting
There is no issue if we provision the user directly to the cube, e.g. without using group.
Please advise. Thanks.

You shouldn't have to restart Essbase as it should automatically sync, there may be additional information in SharedServices_Security_Client.log though it is probably worth logging with Oracle.
Cheers

Essbase Studio- DTS Issue 11.1.2.1

Hi Everyone,
A few months ago, we built our cube through Essbase Studio so that we could allow drill through reports on the cube.
We set Dynamic Time Series on our PERIOD dimension at the Year and Quarter Level.
Our hierarchy looks like this:
PERIOD
|--BEGBALANCE
|--YEARTOTAL
|--|--H1
|--|--|--Q1
|--|--|--|--APR
|--|--|--|--MAY
|--|--|--|--JUN
|--|--|--Q2
|--|--|--|--JUL
|--|--|--|--AUG
|--|--|--|--SEP
|--|--H2
|--|--|--Q3
|--|--|--|--OCT
|--|--|--|--NOV
|--|--|--|--DEC
|--|--|--Q4
|--|--|--|--JAN
|--|--|--|--FEB
|--|--|--|--MAR
In Studio, we built this dimension as a recursive hierarchy and NOT level based.
Our settings are Time (DTS) however we can only choose generation 1 or 2 and cannot put it at gen 2 and 4 where it should be.
We set it as a dense dimension, no two pass, and label only and no formulas or UDAs.
When we run a smart view query with dynamic time series for October (for example), we get an error message [cannot perform cube operation.null].
My coworker then converted the recursive hierarchy to level based just for testing purposes (because we thought the issue was that we built a recursive hierarchy and could only set DTS at gen 1 or 2). After building the hierarchy as level based, we hit the same issue regardless of whether we set the DTS at level or generation.
I am just wondering if anyone has run into this issue before and has a resolution. We are running 11.1.2.1 for version. We have an SR logged with Oracle as of a couple of months ago and they told us they would have a resolution in a week since they were able to duplicate the issue. We have escalated the SR numberous times and have not received a solution yet.
I appreciate your help,
Thanks,
Daniel

I have run into the exact same problem. Did you ever get a resolution? I have also logged a support call so would be interested to know if it is resolved.
Thanks
Steve

Essbase Error log issue for Shared Members

I am loading Shared members for a custom dimension in Essbase.
Error log is getting created as below.
\\Record #1 - Warning: Account Only attributes cannot be set in non-Accounts dimensions
PR0011,APP_PR,Shared Member,
But that specific member is getting loaded.
I am loading only shared member in this load and all records are shown as getting rejected even though most of them are getting loaded.This is causing issues in finding out real rejects.

EIS, ASO & Drill-Thru

How are EIS drill-thru reports exposed to the user in an aggregare storage (ASO) database if linked reporting objects (LRO) are not supported?

Ok, I found if I add
HISLEVELDRILLTHROUGH application_name
to my Essbase.cfg file It at least recognizes that there are reports out there, Now I just get an odd error:
" Invalid selection. All selected data cells must be contiguous. Selected cells can span multiple members in one dimension only. Selected cells must share a common parent and must come from same relational column."
It's interesting it worked on an older version of EIS, just after migration, it stopped working

SQL generated by EIS for Drill Through

Hello,<BR>We are currently using EIS 7.1 on AIX. When we run a drill through report on a large flat dimensional member there are two separate SQLs generated. The first SQL has a where condition with appx. half of the child members and the second one with second half. Is this due to any kind of limitation on he length of the SQL generated?<BR>If so is there any way to work around with this?<BR>THanks a lot in advance<BR>Kris

How to see the SQL (OLAP DML) generated by Discoverer for OLAP
Posted: Aug 30, 2007 9:30 AM Reply
Hi,
I originally posted this query on the Discoverer forum, but it was then suggested to post it here in the OLAP forum. Please help.........
Is there a way to see the SQL (OLAP DML) generated by Discoverer for OLAP (the way we have "View SQL" in Discoverer Relational). The version in use is 10.1.2.48.18.
Thanks,

Re: How to see the SQL (OLAP DML) generated by Discoverer for OLAP
Posted: Sep 5, 2007 7:34 AM in response to: P_S Reply
Directly within Discoverer for OLAP (or Viewer)? No - because there is no way to change the behaviour of the generated SQL, you cannot add hints or create any MVs to change the SQL generated. You can trace the SQL generated during a Disco for OLAP query though by switching on some of the OLAP tuning and diagnostic features. There is more information contained in the Discoverer for OLAP Best Practices Guide:

ES11X-G4-H essbase export adapter issue

Hello,
i have this problem with essbase export adapter for FDM:
When i perform export step everything seems to be fine but /APPS/myFdmApp/myFile.dat doesn't contain records that i can find with both on web interface and with a query on oracle fdm's system views "VDATAFACT" or "VDATA" (on repository database).
No errors or reject records infos are shown nor in fdm neither in essbase (system and app) log.
This happens with very large input file (300mb). Anyone has some ideas on what's happening?
Thank you in advance,
Daniele
FDM: v11.1.2.1
EsbAdapter: ES11X-G4-H
S.O.: Win2008 SE R2 (x64)
RDBMS: Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 (on linux)

I've opened a service request. Here it is the last message i got from them. Please note that this SR had lasted over 2 month.
What they say basically is: it doesen't work but FDM is not designed for big amount of data, so we are not going to fix it.
Which is the max filesize handled by FDM is unknown....
Daniele
Hi Daniele,
Good Morning!
I tried to Reach you on the Number Mentioned in the SR.We Discussed This Issue With the Product Specialist and They have Suggested Not to Use 200Mb File, because it is too Big for FDM to Handle it, Please Try to Split the File and Load it, FDM is not a ETL tool to Handle Such big File.Please let me know if you want anything Else on This.
With Regards,
xxxxx.
Hello xxxxx,
could you please provide me the max file size handled by fdm? I'd like to have some docs on that also.
regards,
Daniele
Hi Daniele,
There is No Limitation as such FDM is not designed to load Millions of records. It's a End user fiinancial tool, not designed to be used as an ETL tool, so there is not a restriction per say, but it's not designed to be used in that manner.
With Regards,
xxxxx

Webi Drill down issue - SQL AS

Hi Guys,
Did anyone encounter the following issue?
There are 4 dimensions(one of them is Date) and 1 measure in my Webi Report.
When I drill down from one measure to another, the SUM of that measure will not the same with its upper Level.
For example, Level 1 is:
Country   total sales
China       1000
Then drill down to Level 2:
Region total sales
North    100
South   200
West    300
While, the SUM of total sales of the three region is not equal with China.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Regards,
Daniel

1. Please check your SQL Query gives Country - Region Wise perfects output/result or not..............
2. Check any Filter is set or not (from info view/edit Query/universe)
Please check correctly.
Thanks
