  • Problem in Getting Count answer for the report in OBIEE 11g..

    Hi friends,
    I created a report in OBIEE 11g, but i'm not getting the correct answer as i expected...I'm getting answer in presentation services but the answer is wrong..
    I'll explain to you with an example report: Suppose in the report "NATIONALITY COUNT IN DEPARTMENT WISE" manner
    i dragged the Nationality column from per_all_people_f which is dim table and i dragged the column that i applied aggregation rule "count" for the column "nation count" from per_all_assignments_f which is fact table......If i viewed answers means i'm getting correct answer
    (i.e.) nation count per Nationality..........
    NATIONALITY<---------------------->NATION COUNT
    AUSTRALIA 40
    INDIA 20
    AFRICA 10
    USA 5
    The above is the answer I'm getting with out including the department column from hr_all_organization_units...........
    But since according to the report i need count in department wise manner, so for that along with nationality and nation count column i dragged department column from hr_all_organization_units which is dim table and also i hide that column as i dont want to view the department column in answers..........
    If i clicked answers, means then I'm not getting the nation count for the nationality......... I'm getting the answer 0 for each and every nationality, if i included the hided department column
    NATIONALITY<----------------->NATION COUNT
    AFRICA 0
    AUSTRALIA 0
    INDIA 0
    USA 0
    I'm getting answers like the above if i include the department dimension column which is in hided manner.........................
    What is wrong with it........Whether i made any logical mistake for the report.....If so guide me friends..........
    Cheers,
    Harry...........

    Hi,
    you said about writing query in DB.......whether U meant of trying checking the query in toad..or something else..........
    Since im giving only one join from dim to fact in the physical diagram........
    But more than one join exist between those dim and fact, but im giving only one join mainly the primary key column of the dimension table to the fact table....Whether i need to give all the joins that exist(even if it has 2 or 3 joins between those fact and dim) tables....
    If i give count distinct means it is giving count for every nation as 1....like i mentioned below
    NATIONALITY<----------------------------------------------------->NATION COUNT
    INDIA---------------------------------------------------------------------1
    AUS------------------------------------------------------------------------1
    CAN------------------------------------------------------------------------1
    Since you said to check about depts of the particular column....i couldn't able to understand about "depts" that you meant????
    Whether i made any logical mistake...........
    thanks,
    Harry...

  • Batch CMD for migrating reports 6i to 9i

    We are converting Oracle reports 6i to 9i(Oracle 10g) (we have approx 1000 reports to be converted).
    Let me know the batch command for converting reports 6i to 9i.
    Appreciate your feedback.
    Raj

    For what it's worth, I just had to go through the same exercise and put together a little Perl script.
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    # Pass the starting directory(ies) as command line arguments
    # For all RDFs under the starting directory this will generate an ASCII source file (REX).
    # The tool RWCONVERTER.EXE must be in the path and the SID must must be reachable. You have to populate USERNAME,
    # PASSWORD, and SID
    use warnings;
    use diagnostics;
    use File::Find;
    # Default is to start in current directory and convert files to source
    unless ($filetype = shift) {
    $filetype = "rexfile";
    if (uc($filetype) ne "REXFILE" and uc($filetype) ne "REPFILE" and uc($filetype) ne "JSPFILE") {
    die "Usage: $0 [REXFILE | REPFILE | JSPFILE] <directories to recursively search>";
    @ARGV = "." unless (@ARGV);
    $fileext = substr( $filetype, 0, 3);
    sub convert_reports {
    return unless /\.rdf$/i;
    (my $destFile = $_) =~ s/rdf$/$fileext/i;
    my $cmd = "rwconverter stype=rdffile userid=<USERNAME>/<PASSWORD>\@<SID> " .
    "source=$_ dtype=$filetype dest=$destFile batch=yes";
    print "$cmd\n";

  • Issues while migration reports to 2012 report server .

    I am stuck in report server related issue . Following are steps and log files details  for migrating report server database from 2005 to 2012 :-
    Back up the encryption key for the report server database.
    Back up the report server database a SQL Server database.
    Back up the report server configuration files.
    Restore the database from the backup created , As temporary database and the main database are depend so they should be restored together.
    Start the Reporting Services Configuration tool and connect to the Reporting Services instance you just installed.
    Configure URLs for the report server and Report Manager
    Configure the report server database, selecting the existing report server database from your previous installation. After successful configuration, the report server services
    will restart, and once a connection is made to the report server database, the database will be automatically upgraded to SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services.
    As we were not able to figure out the password I tried another approach to test if the
    report server works after deleting the encrypted data . I deleted encrypted data.
    Error below is shown in log files when I try to access report manager .

    Hello Manish,
    I am sorry for my delay.
    As we know, the service pack of SQL Server is free to download and install, and the latest SP for SQL server 2005 is SP4, so that Microsoft recommend that we migrate the service from SQL Server 2005 SP4 to SQL Server 2012. If you still want to upgrade the
    service from SSRS 2005 SP3, we cannot guarantee that all features can work properly, and we did not test it yet. Therefore, I still recommend you upgrade the SQL server 2005 to SP4 if possible.
    In addition, you can refer to the following article on MSDN to see whether it can meet your requirement. It is a general step to migrate the SSRS.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143747.aspx
    I hope it is helpful to you.

  • Migration of Discoverer 1g reports to OBIEE

    we are trying to migrate reports from Discoverer 10g to OBIEE 10.1.3.4.We have migrated the EUL using the utility tool provided by OBIEE.
    Now we were trying to use the sample reports and migrate the same to OBIEE 10.1.3.4.
    We are using a sample xml which we will be using to migrate the reports .We have a web service which takes report inputs in this XML format, converts and save OBIEE reports.
    SInce OBIEE does not have tabs(worksheets) like Discoverer,we thought
    we will have to prepare xml for each tab and present it as a single
    report in OBIEE.
    1) Can u please suggest if this is right or there is some
    workaround for it or if anyone has idea about it?
    We could also do some changes to the xml to incorporate some functions of discoverer if anyone has suggestions.
    We are assuming that Crosstab reports are similar to Pivot tables in OBIEE.
    2) But we are not sure how to incorporate the page items in thexml.plz suggest if anyone has ideas since not sure if page items can be handled in OBIEE.
    3) Can someone help us in completing with this below xml by taking example of the sample reports present in discoverer.The values of reports are to be included in the xml
    Any help would be great since we are trying this for the first time and we are not well versed with xml too.Please find below the sample xml we are using

    Hi,
    I opened the Discoverer administrator and clicked on export.
    in next step i selected the option "Selected obects in the end user layer" for "what do u want to export"?
    i choose workbook and selected the sample workbook "Video Tutorial workbook"
    Then i gave the name "Video Sales Tutorial" and saved the file in a folder and selected the check box "generate xml for exported workbooks"
    I got the file in the folder as Video Sales Tutorial.eex.That .eex file had details of the workbook name and all other information
    <UniqueIdent ConstraintName="DOC1" Batch="False" DeveloperKey="VIDEO_TUTORIAL_WORKBOOK"/>
    But to get these workbook details we have to always save the workbook in the DB.We cannot save the workbook in our file system.
    Am i right?Since only workbooks which are in DB can be exported.
    Thanks a lot for the info.Will try to analyze this information

  • Migrating Hyperion Reports to OBIEE.

    Hi, I'm OBIEE analyst and I don't know so much about "Hyperion World".
    So, we need to migrate some Hyperion Reports (Web Analysis, Financial Reporting and Interative Reporting - modules) to OBIEE.
    I've been studing about the subject and I discovered that for Interactive Reporting Reports there are a tool called by Translation Workbench that migrate all Hyperion Reports to OBIEE, not simple like I said, but seems it works.
    So, for the other modules(Web Analysis and Financial Reporting) I didn't find out anything about them.
    Can someone help me?
    Tks,
    Guilherme

    Satya,
    Thanks for immediate response! But these two threads do not have what I want...
    I have some reports in three Hyperion modules:
    - Hyperion Web Analysis
    - Hyperion Interactive Reporting
    - Hyperion Financial Reporting
    So, I know that for Hyperion "IR", there is a tool called "Oracle Translation Workbench" that migrate "BQY" to OBIEE Repository and OBIEE Answers... But for "FR" and "WA" I didn't find out anything about migration to them.
    Tks!!

    Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?
    I am able to apply saved filters for normal reports but not for union reports.
    The catalog pane is blank, when i click on result columns or each criteria.
    The only option i see is to manually create the filters for each criteria, dont i have any choice to use a saved filter for union report?
    Is this a bug or something i am unaware. Please guide me
    Thanks

    Hi manu,
    Filter is created based on subject area.we can't use save filter in any other subject areas.

  • Calculationg current and past year for a Analysis report in obiee 11.5

    Dear All,
    Need some help here.
    I am a beginner in OBIEE and need some help to build a report in obiee 11.5 as described below;
    I need to create a PnL report such that I show current years profit and loss AND prior year profit and loss figures in a report side by side for comparitive analysis for user.
    My data is an essbase database, and have a years dimension with values 'current year' , 'F08', and 'Prior Year'. and other measurs such as revenue, % revenue, gross profit, cost of sales, operating expenses etc. (I am using 107 from oracle downloads) for obiee 11.5
    There is another dimesion called time period with members as Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4, and each having respective months (e.g. Jan, Feb, Mar for Q1 etc)
    I also have a scenario dimension with members as Actual, plan, Forecast, Wht -if..
    Now I need to create a this report.
    I created this report based on approch no 1 below;
    Appraoch 1
    - Create two analysis reports with all the above columns.
    - specify filter for year column equal to current year for first report
    - specify filter for year column equal to prior year for second report
    - create a dashboard with a promt (radio button) based on column scenario
    - create two sections placed side by side below the promt and place above two reports in those two sections so that they appear side by side
    Nw when I run this dashboard, it works fine, and shows me the current and prior data for actual, plan etc...
    BUT....
    I need to create the same reports using a single analysis report instead of two separate reports with hardcoded values for year filter.
    Now I tried use AGO funtions on but , it requires a column with numerical value so that it can calculate the past year, but in my case year is a column hving text value and hence i cant use it.
    I would like to know how to build such a report using any other variable or function or any rpd level modifitions.
    If I had a year dimesion with numeric values, then how would I use to calculate the past year once u select current year .?
    Let say values are 2012, 2011, 2010 etc. so If I select 2012 as current year, I should get data for 2012, and 2011, if I select 2011, then I should get data for 2011 ,and 2010.
    Please help me to build logic either at analysis level or at repository level
    Thanks and Regards
    Santosh

    Hi,
    As per I understand your requirement,
    In Pivot table, place 'Year' in pivot columns instead of rows.
    Create an SQL filter on Year and put the condition as:
    *"Year" BETWEEN @{Presentation_Variable} - 1 AND @{Presentation_Variable}*
    You will get the result for selected year and the previous year.
    Hope it helps..
    Regards,
    A.K.

    I search the SAP SMP and SCN forum and found no reference on this UMT and Crystal Report database logon problem.  Hope any of you have seen this problem and share if there is an ADAPT for it.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hi,
    The BI4.1 SP03 server and client and Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.1 SP03 are all installed onto this Windows 2008 R2 server.
    I am able to open the migrated report from CMS repository in Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and am able to refresh it with database logon password provided.  After save it back to the Enterprise, the database logon password field for this report in CMC becomes empty so that I have to enter the database password and choose "Use same database logon as when report is run" when viewing and scheduling report.
    What is interesting to me is that the UMT seems to migrate the report along the database logon password because I can see the encrypted password in the report database logon property in CMC.  The workaround is to reenter the database logon password in the report database logon property in CMC.
    With this said, there are hundreds of the Crystal reports and the workaround would consume lots of manual work by update each report's database logon password in CMC.
    For other customers who have more crystal reports, I wonder if there is an automated way to update the crystal report's database logon password on BI4.1 or if this is an isolated incident on my new BI4.1 SP03 environment.
    I run UMT in command line to perform livetolive migration, and my steps are listed below
    cd "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\apps\upgradeManagementTool\jars\"
    "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\sapjvm\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx56g -Djava.library.path="..\..\..\..\win64_x64" -jar upgrademanagementtool.jar -internal_use_only_noversioncheck -responsefile LIVETOLIVEResponseFile.txt
