Excluding Datamember from Update in Parent-Child hierarchy
Hello,
I have a Parent-Child hierarchy and writeback enabled measures.
If I make an equal allocation update on a parent element, its datamember gets the same amount as the leaf elements.
How can I override this feature (scope and cell calulation for datamembers would not do...)?
I mean: if I have 4 leaf members and I write on the parent element I want to see 250 on leaves - and null on DataMember -, instead of 200 on each elements (including datamember).
I would not convert the Parent-Child to normalized hierarchy if I have any chance to switch off the datamembers.
Thank you for your answers in advance!

Peter
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone more familiar with this topic for a further look at this issue. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

How to update a parent child hierarchy in OBIEE
Hello All
Quick question about updating parent child hierarchy in OBIEE.
As we know, OBIEE 11G allows us to create value based hierarchy by generating table creation script and insert script. In the typical example of employee dimension, the parent child relationship table will be created with the following 4 attributes:
MEMBER_KEY, ANCESTOR_KEY, DISTANCE, IS_LEAF
So, what if later in the years some of the employees got promoted, retired or transferred? The value based hierarchy is going to change because person 1 reports to manager 2 now instead of 1. Obviously, the records in employee dimension is going to be updated. When that happens, how to update the parent child relation table with the same information? Do we have to rerun the insert script? How do we keep the history of employee changes and hierarchy changes?
Please advice
Thank youI guess it will update when the structure changes,Let see the response from other gurus.

Parent child Hierarchy in OBIEE 10G
Hi,
I want to implement the parent child hierarchy in OBIEE 10g where I need to show people working under manager directly and indirectly.
Please let me know as users doesn't want to drill the report but by selecting the option from the drop down Direct/Indirect they should see the results.

Parent Child hierarchy Scenario
Hi friends,
Im just working on the parent child hierarchy using the following link with the sample data.
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/bi/bi11115/biadmin11g_02/biadmin11g.htm_
I tried to implement the same hierarchy using my local data instead of referring to the sample data.
I have a below query which returns the employee with manager along with the employee position
select distinct papf.person_id, papf.full_name "Employee Name", supf.person_id "Manager Id", supf.full_name "Manager Name", pj.name "Position Name"
from per_all_people_f papf, per_all_assignments_f paaf, per_all_people_f supf, per_jobs pj
where papf.person_id = paaf.person_id and supf.person_id = paaf.supervisor_id and paaf.job_id = pj.job_id
and trunc(sysdate) between paaf.effective_start_date and paaf.effective_end_date and
trunc(sysdate) between papf.effective_start_date and papf.effective_end_date
Im looking forward to implement the same result in my BI with a parent-child hierarchy.
Since i have imported three tables to my physical layer
per_all_people_f------------Dimension
per_all_assignments_f-----Fact
per_jobs---------------------DimensionFor creating parent-child in BI, we need to have a separate Parent child table which consist of four columns like ancestorkey, memberkey, distance, leaf.
From the above column i can understand the meaning like
For Ancestorkey-->Managerid
Memberkey------->Employeeid
But i couldnt get with the meaning for distance column as the meaning suggest like a distance b/w the two and leaf column as the meaning suggest like a leaf member. which leaf member does it refer.
I also referred the below link then too couldnt get the meaning for it
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/08/oracle-bi-ee-11g-parent-child-hierarchies-differing-aggregations/+
How i can form the parent child table for the BI from my above three tables of HRMS.
Thanks

SaroHi friends,
I think i found a link of doing it
http://prasadmadhasi.com/2011/11/15/hierarchies-parent-child-hierarchy-in-obiee-11g/
Let me try this and will update accordingly.
Thanks for your views.

Parent Child Hierarchy causes numbers to be different
Hello,
We have a parent child hierarchy in our chart of account dimensions. When the hierarchy is included in an analysis, the numbers are correct. If the hierarchy is not included in the analysis and a column from the dimension with the hierarchy is included, the numbers are very different. They are overstated by a large amount.
For Example, I have two analysis:
-In the first analysis the hierarchy is included and the grand total is 2,383,080,784.
-The second analysis has simply excluded the hierarchy from the analysis and the total shoots all the way up to 6,901,729,527.
I have screen shots but don't know how to include them in this kind of a post.
Has anybody else seen such behavior? This seems like it would be a big deal so either we are doing something wrong or this is a bug that needs fixed.
We are on 11.1.1.6
Thanks in advance,
BrianHi,
Thanks for the reply, I'm actually using snapshots. But even with the Type 2 Dim I don't think it will work.
When OBIEE generates the very first sql against the Parent-Child table the fact table is not included in the query. It seems to create 2 queries - one to find the top level parent (ancestor key is null) and then one to find all the leaf nodes.
It does not have any join to the fact table when it does this. So if you have multiple rows in the table (with date stamps) for a single row (person in this case) - it picks up both rows. Therefore, when you have a person who was, say, promoted to manager, and WAS a leaf node, and is now a manager, they show up in the leaf query and don't display in the hierarchy as a manager.
Once it has the leaf nodes and it joins to the fact table everything works (ie the surrogate key join).
I'm trying to figure out if there is any way to influence those initial queries against the parent-child table.
Hopefully that made sense.
Thanks,

Calculate measure in parent child hierarchy
Halo everyone
I have a requirement about parent child hierarchy namely:
1. see the following picture as a sample.
the situation I got here is every employee has its own measure (Sales Amount). when it rolls up to 'Employee1' so the Sales will calculate all measure (Employee1 and all the descendents) but when it drill down, 'Employee1' will ONLY show its own 'measure' (it does'nt calculate from its descendents).
Any suggestion, Any idea, Any sharing, Any inspiration would be appreciated. thanks alot.Hi Vin,
We can use Descendants() funcion, which returns the set of descendants of a member at a specified level or distance, optionally including or excluding descendants in other levels.
Please refer to the document below:

Dynamic hierarchy in parent child hierarchy table??
Do you have any experience to handle the requirement of dynamic hierarchy in universe/webi?
We have some data in parent child hierarchy as below u201CCustomeru201D table.
Customer
Parent Child
Z A
Z B
A AA
B BB
AA AAA
For example, Company Z is the parent company of Company A.
Another table, Amount is the amount value of different Customers.
Amount
ID Amt
AA 10
AAA 1
BB 2
Is there any functionality in Universe designer to build related Classes and objects, So that the web intelligence documents represent the following report with the drilling results?
When we want to see the ID and Amt, the expected result should be:
Z 13
when we drill down Z
the result should be:
A 11
B 2
when we drill down A:
the result should be:
AA 11
notes **
the level of hierarchy is dynamic
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.Hi,
The only way to do it is to create recursive derived table that flatten you parent child hierarchy with a given maximum depth.
Here is a sample I built a long time ago to flatten a parent-child hierarchy on Employees table in Foodmart database (SQL Server).

Parent child hierarchy and measure using lookup
Hi,
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.5 and I have an issue with a parent child hierarchy, which is setup like case 4 in this example . When I create a simple analysis using the hierarchy and a simple measure, it works fine. But when I try to use a calculated measure using a lookup formula, I get the following error:

Parent-Child Hierarchy Show No Data
Hi:
OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5
I created a parent-child hierarchy following multiple examples in books and on the web. I can pull the presentation hierarchy--by itself--into a view and drill up and down. But when I add a measurement from the fact table, I receive a no data found error. I copied the SQL into SQL*Developer and ran it, and it too returned no data. I've tried to read and debug the query in SQL*Developer, but I don't understand what it is doing.
The dimension table I am using for the parent-child hierarchy has a cost_Center_id and parent_cost_center_id. I used the Parent-Child dimension wizard to create and populate the new hierarchy table.
I can create a view by using the cost_center item and a fact table measurement without the presentation hierarchy, so it has something to do with the presentation hierarchy.
I've been at this for a few days now, and I've run out of ideas. Can anyone suggest what I may have done wrong?
Thanks.check if there is data in the fact table.. Next check also if the join condition between the dimension and fact is valid.

"State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 38107] *Not all four columns are defined for closure table 'Parent_Chile_Table_Closure'*. (HY000)".
According to the help web "http://www.adivaconsulting.com/adiva-blog/item/22-obiee-11g-hierarchical-table.html", I have created the relational Parent-Child-Hierarchy table in the database that is imported into the physical layer, and finish every steps, but when I drag the hierarchy in the presentation layer into display scope, which shows the errors mentioned above.
If you known the method for solving it,please help me and share your idea, thanks!Hey,
I am also facing the same issue when i try to replicate this practice. (Create Logical Dimensions with Parent Child Hierarchies -- http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/bi/bi11115/biadmin11g_02/biadmin11g.htm#t9s3)

Script populate parent-child hierarchy not running
Hallo guys
I have problem when running script populate Parent-Child Relationship Table.
Here is the script.I don't even change the script.just run it in PL/SQL
declare
v_max_depth integer;
v_stmt varchar2(32000);
i integer;
begin
select max(level) into v_max_depth
from V_D_BRANCH
connect by prior BRANCH_KEY=PARENT_BRANCH_KEY
start with PARENT_BRANCH_KEY is null;
v_stmt := 'insert into DM_ANALYTICS.BRANCH_HIERARCHY (MEMBER_KEY, ANCESTOR_KEY, DISTANCE, IS_LEAF)
select BRANCH_KEY as member_key, null, null, 0 from V_D_BRANCH where PARENT_BRANCH_KEY is null
union all
select member_key,
replace(replace(ancestor_key,''\p'', ''|''), ''\'', ''\'') as ancestor_key,
case when depth is null then 0
else max(depth) over (partition by member_key) - depth + 1
end as distance, is_leaf
from
select member_key,depth,
case when depth is null then '' || member_key
when instr(hier_path, ''|'', 1, depth + 1) = 0 then null
else substr(hier_path, instr(hier_path, ''|'', 1, depth) + 1, instr(hier_path, ''|'', 1, depth + 1) - instr(hier_path, ''|'', 1, depth) - 1)
end ancestor_key,
is_leaf
from
( select BRANCH_KEY as member_key, PARENT_BRANCH_KEY as ancestor_key, sys_connect_by_path(replace(replace(BRANCH_KEY, ''\'', ''\''), ''|'', ''\p''), ''|'') as hier_path,
case when BRANCH_KEY in (select PARENT_BRANCH_KEY from V_D_BRANCH ) then 0 else 1 end as IS_LEAF
from V_D_BRANCH
connect by prior BRANCH_KEY = PARENT_BRANCH_KEY
start with PARENT_BRANCH_KEY is null
( select null as depth from dual;
for i in 1..v_max_depth - 1 loop
v_stmt := v_stmt || union all select '' || i || '' from dual;
end loop;
v_stmt := v_stmt || ) )
where ancestor_key is not null;
execute immediate v_stmt;
end;
but I got errors like following:
Error report -

hi,
i tried making "Dimension with Parent-Child Hierarchy" as described in your tutorials.
i finished with the admin tool and database changes and with no errors.
when trying to create a new answer, by only puting the hierarchy column in the answer.
the result show "no result" exist.
i am not sure what i am doing wrong. maybe you can point me to the problem?
thanks
Mirit.Hi Mirit,
What is the table that you created hierarchy on?
Which column in the hierarchy you pulled into your reports to see the No Result message?
Please query the table and see if has data.
Thanks,

No Results after build a Parent-Child Hierarchy in OBIEE11G
Hi All:
Here's an problem. I followed the "http://sandybi.wordpress.com/2010/08/17/hierarchies-in-obiee-11g-part-1/" this article step by step to create a parent-child hierarchy in admin tool in OBIEE11G.
But after check in and try to retrieve the hierarchy data in Answer. There's always displays "No Results."
Is there any suggestions for this ? Really urgent and thanks for your help.
Best regards
Sunny@Aketi
It is One way that We derive
"sys_connect_by_path(RowIDToChar(RowID),'.') as
RowIDList"
Then
We use Left Join Using
"instr(RowIDList,RowIDToChar(RowID))".sorry, didn't catch what you mean.

@Rob
your query is good and simple :) probably it's the best alternative for the OP.
But it won't work with not a plain hierarchy, e.g.:

2 3

Parent Child Hierarchy in OBIEE 11G
Hi All,
I am working on the parent child hierarchy in OBIEE 11g Source ESSBASE ..followed some of the blogs.
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/07/obiee-11gr1-enhancements-to-essbase-support/
I followed the following steps.
1.Imported the Cubes from ESSBASE.
2.Selected Accounts Hirearchy and changed the Hierarchy type to Value.
3.Dragged the subject area to BMM and to Presentation.
4.Now when i checked the Account Hierarchy from in the dashboard its not drilling down.
If i change the Hierarchy type to Unbalanced ...then the Account hiearchy is working fine.
Is there is any settings or process i have to follow..inorder to implement the Value based Hierarchy in OBIEE 11G source ESSBASE.
ThanksSo basically this means that if I build a parent child hierarchy on table A having the stucture like
--David (Manager)
-----James (Off1)
--------Bill (Off2)
and in my sales fact table for let's say today, I have only rows for Bill (Off2) because he is the only officer who did the sales today. Now when I will join my fact table to parent child hierarchy table A I will NOT get any data ? because there is no James who is the parent of Bill. So obiee need to have parent pulled off in the data (ANCESTOR) to be able to roll up the child.(IS_LEAF = 1)
I testes this and if my data only contains only rows for Bill (or I limit on ROLE = Off2) then it won't show the hierarchy. The query which OBIEE fires is to look for either ANCESTOR_KEY = NULL OR (DISTANCE = 1 AND ANCESTOR KEY IN (Bill). Therefore it doesn't I am wondering then what is the use of builiding the parent child hierarchy when we need to pull in all the ancestors (like in this case James for bill and David for james) because in real scenarios there can be cases wherein we would want to filter the data based on other dimensions to which the parent child hierarchy joins ? -
Empty parent-child hierarchy if a date attribute is "1800-01-01 00:00:00.000"!
I have an Employees dimension that contains a parent-child hierarchy as the supervisor->employees (Org. chart. starts from the CEO to the lowest level of employees). The hierarchy is built on a relation between the employee_id (as the primary and
surrogate key) and supervisor_id (as a foreign key). There are many other attributes in this dimension one of them is the Termination_Date. The value for Termination_Date for the current employees in the source
system is "1800-01-01 00:00:00.000" (which is also the default value). The weird thing is that keeping this value in the employee dimension will cause the previously mentioned parent-child hierarchy to show nothing! if I change it to any other
value or NULL, the hierarchy works fine and shows the expected tree of employees!
I can change "1800-01-01 00:00:00.000" to Null in the ETL stage and solve the problem, but I want really to know what causes this ? why ?!I have an Employees dimension that contains a parent-child hierarchy as the supervisor->employees (Org. chart. starts from the CEO to the lowest level of employees).

Guys,
I have a parent-child hierarchy and users would select a randomn level from the prompt (Hierarchical column used in the prompt). So for the level selected I need to capture all the leaves and put a top n function on them.. Any ideas??
Things that i have tried are using Selection steps with hierarchical columns.
Step 1: Start with all Memebers
New step: Step 2 is Selected Members based on hierarchy relation Ship (Keep only members of leaves of hierarchy)
But the problem is I am not able to override the Step -2 with dashboard prompt. I was able to do only fior STEP -1
So any ideas??
If i can atleast capture all the leaves of selecte level from the prompt that would solve my problem to a large extent?/ Thought abt Hierarchical Navigation Functions but didnt succeed?? Any suggestions really appreciated
Thanks..
Prash
Edited by: Prash11 on Aug 6, 2012 11:14 AMI have got lot of hierarchies which are atleast 20 levels deep. So its not really feasible for me to create multiple views for multiple levels.
I tried to use hierarchical column functions and it works but not able to override the values from prompts in the selection steps. So still trying few things
Step 1: Start with All members (over ride with prompt checked)
Step 2: Select a level with in the hierarchy and Keep only leaves of the selected level
Step 3: Apply Condition do a TOP 10 and keep only that result set.
This works fine with out any issues from an ad-hoc stand point. Only problem there is no way for me to over ride the dashboard prompt value in Step - 2 as it expects me to select a value from the hierarchy. Any alternativeS?
