Expandable/Collapsible Summary to Detail in Answers Dashboards

Is it possible to produce a report with summary rows preceeded with a plus-icon (+) having aggregate data which when clicked changes to a minus-icon (-) and expands in place to show the next level of detail?
If not, what might be the closest alternative implementation in OBIEE?
Thanks for your time,
user10920338

Many thanks for your input!
It turns out that my current client is accustomed to the Microsoft "grouping" metaphor used in Excel, SSRS, and their custom legacy ASP reporting. Since it was proclaimed that OBIEE is their "new" reporting platform, they (of course, lol) desire the identical presentation and interaction.
Although I am not familiar with what's in Answers+, I have encouraged my client to consider keeping in mind an alternative report interaction method.
After a demo of the typical "drill-down" using the dimensional hierarchies, they were not impressed, and are amazed that the much praised OBIEE tool cannot achieve such an "+obvious report interaction standard+".

Use different Layouts for Summary and Details in Drill down report

Hi All,
I have a 2 level drill down report in ALV.
The summary report has certain fields and the Detail report has different fields. Now my problem is that when i use a default layout (with all fields of summary report) for the summary report, and drill down to the detail report i'm missing the fields on detail that are not in Summary. And if i save the default layout as default (with all fields of Detail) and go back to sumary, I'm missing the some other fields on summary (which are not on detail report).
Is there a way to make different default layouts for each of those summary and detail reports:
Also as the layouts are choosen by the user, i cannot hardcode any particular layout;
So if the user chooses a layout for detail; it has to stay the same layout for the detail report if he goes to summary and then back to detail; unless the user changes the layout again.
I'm using two different Layout types for each report. but i still cannot get the desired effect.
Data:
 gt_layout_s type slis_layout_alv,
 gt_layout_d type slis_layout_alv,
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_s
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_summary.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_d
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_detail_disp.

Here is how you differentiate between the layout of two different grids. There is the parameter, IS_VARIANT in the function. You usually leave it empty or pass only the report name and username. What you need to do is to pass unique string for each grids to the HANDLE field of the parameter IS_VARIANT. You can probably hard code it as HEADER and DETAILS in your case. Once that is done, system identified that these two different layout for different grids.

Expand collapsible tabbed spry to fill div..

I currently have a div with width 700px and height 500px and i have inserted several collapsible sprys 1 above the other with the dimension of tab being 150x700px and the content 350x700px. When i click the tab of the first collapsible spry the content drops down to fill the div but with the second and so on the spys are half off the screen. Is there way so that when you click any of the collapsible spry they all expand centrally within the div?

Hi thanks here is a link to my site you will notice a scrolling div with 2 collapsible spys in it.
the first spry expands and fills the div
the second spry is off the bottom you have to scroll down
is there a way to make all sprys expand to fill the div??

Pass Input Values to BI Publisher Report Layout from BI Answers Dashboard

Has anyone been able successfully pass user input values from a BI Answers dashboard prompt into a BI Publisher report? I'm trying add user inputted text (notes, comments) into a report he/she runs.
I've been trying with no success. I've matched the name of the presenation variables in Answers to the parameter definitions in BI Publisher.
I've declared the parameter in the RTF template as below:
1. Declaration
<?param@begin:param1?>
2. retrive value:
<?$param1?>
If i run it directly from BI Publisher, there is no issue. When I pass the value from an Answers dashboard, the text is never displayed in the report?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lael

Unix scripting in answer dashboard

All,
Using OBIEE 10g, in Answer dashboard can I create a report which will call unix script to perform some validation ..? If yes, please let me know how to achieve this.

I'm sure you can, what exactly you are trying to achieve ??

# As to what is the best browser, it is subjective. I think it is the best, others will disagree. There is no special version for Windows Server 2003, the usual version works on it.
# It is free of charge and will always be free.
# It is open source.

Pagebreaks in PDF from Answers + Dashboard Filter Value in Answers Title

Hi All,
Question 1:
is there a possibility to to "data driven" page breaks with the PDF printing funcion from Answers?
Say, we have a list of Customers with some Invoice data in a report. When i print the results as PDF, i want to have each customer on a new page. How can i realize this? (BI 10.1.3.4.1).
Question 2:
Is there a possibility to get the selected values of a multichoice dashboard filter into the title of an answers analysis? For dropdown and simple input fields i realized this with variables. But this is not possible for multichoice filters since there is no variable field provided when defining the dashboard prompt?
Thanks in advance

Hi Kuldip,
There are 2 ways of doing it.
1. Nice and good: For the section where the report is put have a condition to display only if it returns rows. For details please refer to :
http://bischool.wordpress.com/category/guided-navigation/
2. The easy way: Add a "No Result" view to your report and add few spaces in the text.
Let me know if this helped.

Jay

Will it be possible to achieve in xcelsius?For the Agent and Date in the "summary report" above it should display corrosponding number of Records in detail report in a spreadsheet component..
Can you tell me the steps..

User,
What is your name?
You could move the parameter/item to the detail page. Perhaps change it from a hidden item (if it is) to a visible item that users could select from. Then all you're doing when you come from the summary to the detail is setting that item's value.
Note that if the item changes pages you'll want to change the name of the item and therefore any references to it. To make sure you don't miss anything you'll want to run the app though Patrick's APEX Essentials: http://www.inside-oracle-apex.com/apex-essentials/ (this will be integrated in APEX 4)

Drilling down from Summary to detailed reporting.

Hello all,
I am sure this can be done in BW but I just dont know how we can do it.
My client requirement is when we run a report on the cube we see all the totals for commitement item (we have cmmt item hierarchy that we are using) and then we are at a particular cmmt item for eg Office supplies the total being $1000 they want to double click on the cmmt item (drill down) to see all the transaction for that particular cmmt item.
How can this be achieved ? Can we use RRI for this?
Someone please share some advice
Thanks in adavnce.
KM

Hello,
When I am done with rsbbs. And I open the summary report in Bex Analyzer now I want to see detailed transactions for a particular cmmt item. Do I have to double click on it or Do i have to right mouse click and say Go to -> Detailed report?
I tried both the things, when I double click it says no applicable data available. and when i do go to-> detailed report it takes me to the report but it shows me everything rather than only transaction for that particular cmmt item. How do we make that happen so that it should know I want to see data only for the cmmt item i click on?
Thanks,
KM

Summary and Detail Fact Tables in one Universe ...

We have a classic star Schema with a snapshot( summary table by month) and a detail activity table on Daily activity. What is best way to design a Universe to accomodate this requirement.
1. Seperate Universe for summary Table
This removes the functionality of Drill down, and Drill down can be only available through links in Webi Reports.
2. One Universe for both Summary and Fact, and write logic for aggregate awareness. It will complicate the universe since we have close to 100 odd mesasures.
Thanks

Hi Devendra,
Use aggregate awareness irrespective of the "complicated" matter.

Drill down from Summary to Detail Report

BI Publisher 11g
I creating a set of reports consisting of a single summary report and several detail reports. The user should be able to click on a row in the Summary report and this will pass those parameters to the detail report. Detail report will now show with corresponding values selected in Summary report. Thanks in Advance!

Explain exactly how you create your 2 reports.
The second one must have "is prompted" filters if you want it to use the values of the first one.
