Fields from 2 different Subject Area via inner or outer join

Hi All
I have a requirement where I have to pull columns which are available in 2 different Subject Areas.
For eg. Col1 and Col2 in one SubjectArea1/Report1 and Col2 and Col3(obviously not available in SubjectArea1) in second SubjectArea2/Report2.
The resultant expected is a single report with Col1, Col2 and Col3.
SUBJECTAREA1/REPORT1---- SUBJECTAREA2/REPORT2----------- FINAL REPORT(on Inner/Outer join)
col1,col2----------------------------col2,col3-----------------------------------col1,col2,col3
Please let me know how to achieve this

Outter Joins are not available within On Demand. Please let me know what Objects you are trying to user here for SubjectArea One and SubjectArea Two?

Chart with data from different subject area

What I want to draw in a single chart is the following (I made this up just to show my requirement)
-The number of accounts by month (a line chart)
-The number of activities by month (bar chart)
Not all accounts necessary have any activity in a month.
In excel I can have two data streams and I can use two Y-axis to present the two different data streams (# of accounts, # of activities). Is it possible to do this in Analytics? I look at the chart setup. It seems there is only one Y-axis. Is that the case?

You can have 2 Y axis. Try the 3d charting mechanism and you may want to try a chart from a pivot stand point.

Report using colmns from 2 subject areas

Hi,
I have to buld a report as below
Product      ForecastRevenue(A)       ActualRevenue(B)       Variance
A                200                                      100                           100
B                200                                      200                            0
ForecastRevenue(A) comes from 1 subject area and ActualRevenue(B) comes from another subject area. Using these 2 columns from different subject area I have to create
a calculated column variance which is the difference of two columns. How can I create this report. Any idea?

can be done in two ways;
1. Using Union report
Create a union report with two request.
Request1 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression     "product.name"     "Fact.Revenue"         0
Request2 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression      "product.name"    0                             "Fact.ACTUAL_Revenue"
In the result tab create a pivote report and set the aggregation of fact column as sum.
Add a calculated column and write the expression as
Farecast_Revenue - Actual_Revenue
You are done.
2. Use the advance tab in the report and write a custom SQL to join these two subject area.
eg.
select product, A.forecast_reveneu, B.Forecast_Reveneue, A.forecast_reveneu-B.Forecast_Reveneue
from SA1 A join SA2 B on (A.product=B.PRODUCT)
You are done.
Best of Luck,

Passing a value from Report A to B when B is in a different Subject Area

I had posted a question previously on how to pass the Dept # from Report A to B when B i in a different Subject Area. The question was:
Report A is a table on the Dashboard that shows Actual vs Budget results by Department. I want the user to click on the Department and be navigated to report B that shows the detail transactions that make up the Actual results. Report A and B are from different underlying subject areas. Thus when I navigate to report B, I see ALL departments, and not the one I clicked on in Report A to bring up Report B. How can I limit the results in Report B to be just the respective cell I clicked on in Report A?
I got great advice from Nico on how to use the GO URL, but I can only get that to work if the 2 reports in question are from the same data model. In my case they are NOT.
The GO URL seems to be working, as it does open up Report B when I click on the Department field in Report A, but it does not pass the Department number to Report B, even though reprot B has that field "as prompted".
Can anyone definitively indicate whether what I'm trying to do is not possible in BI EE?

Read this from Venkat... I think this will be helpful in understanding prompts, both the column prompts (Answers) type and the dashboard prompts. Very useful, I think.

Error when building a report from 2 different subject areas

Hello Experts,
I am using obiee 11.1.1.5.
I have 5 dimension D1,D2,D3,D4,D5 connected to fact1 and 4 dimension connected to fact2 such as D1,D2,D6,D7.
where D1,D2 is common to both the facts.
Fact1 Is in subject area 1 and Fact2 is in subject area2.
I need to create a report by adding columns of subject area 1 and 2 with columns from all the dimensions D1,D2....D7.
As of now i am getting error stating "No fact table exists at the requested level of detail " when i try to add columns from 2 different subject areas.
Can anyone help me in solving the above problem.
Is there any prerequisite to be taken care when building a report from 2 different subject areas.
Regards,
NN

Hello Nagireddy,
So kind of you, for your quick reply
I was able to solve the error by doing below steps in additional what you have specified
-->For the fact table LTSs, set the logical level in the Content tab to the dimension's lowest level for each conforming dimension (leave the non-conforming dimensions level blank).
Now I have another requirement i,e
I need to have non measure columns such as Date into the newly created fact in BMM layer.
I tried doing the steps which I followed for measure column, but it is throwing the same error which I get earlier.
Below is the error
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: 14025] No fact table exists at the requested level of detail:
Let me know if have any suggestions

How add new column in analysis from two subject area

which is the right way to add a new column to an existing combined analysis from two subject areas?
if I add the new column first in my two combined queries, then I saw a new column in the results column panel, but this new column is empty and I can't edit its propreties (the button edit column doesn't work). I can't even save the modified analysis due to a "bad xml" errror.
if I try to first add a new column from the results panel and then in my combined queries, obiee says that new columns are not of the same type.
I suppose this is because the new column in results panel has no aggregation formula, unlike new columns in queries.
But I don't know how to change the properties of the new field in the results panel, with no subject area available.
I have to restart from a single subject area? possible?
In this case, there is a way to save/copy filters ecc. from the old analysis?
If anyone can help.
Thanks
Luc

When you are using union clause in analysis or combining with other subject area you suppose to have same number of columns and their datatypes with other analysis.
for datatype issues you can use cast in column expression in each analysis. If you want to add a column only from 1 analysis just add and in other analysis use dummy column with exp 0 or ''(for char) based on the datatype.
These you have to deal with each analysis.

Consistency check error 38011: Logical tables from multiple subject areas..

I received multiple 38011 errors when performing a consistency check after merging repositories:
For example:
Logical tables from multiple subject areas associated, OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse
(OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse refer to different business models)
I'm really not sure what this means, and Metalink and Google aren't turning up anything.
Thoughts?
-John

John,
Does it say anything about Assertion Failure? Also, this is straight up from help regarding import (through file menu) "Use this option when the objects you import are unrelated to objects already in the repository such as when the business model and physical layer objects do not exist. If an object of the same name and type exists, the import process overwrites the existing object with the new object. When you import objects from one repository into another, the repository from which you are importing must be consistent."
Sometimes Merge does bring unexpected (and unwanted results) - especially if there're presentation aliases, duplicate business models, or naming conflicts. If it's not too late, I suggest you use Import,rather than Merge, also, preferably starting with a new RPD file. This would enable you to bring items piece-by-piece and hopefully would allow you to isolate the problem.
Also, depending on the size - it's sometimes preferable to just reproduce missing part(s). I hope this is helpful.
Also, I forgot to say - the Import is deprecated and not supported. They suggest you use Project Extract and Merge. If Merge isn't working out for you and Import isn't an option - maybe you could try Project.

Navigate to BI content. Report in different Subject Areas

I have a requirement where I have to navigate to a detailed level report when I click on the column. When I place the reports in the same subject area it works absolutely fine. But according to the requirement the reports cannot be in the same subject area. So when I click on the column, all the filters on the dashboard prompts pass through the main report in SubArea1 to Detail Report in SubARea2 but the attribute value that clicked on does not pass through as a filter. I see all teh records at a detailed level and not just that attribute's records.
We are trying to implement 'Navigate to BI content' Action link from one report to another.
Both these reports are not in the same subject area (Presentation layer) though. How can be make OBIEE pass the appropriate filters to show only the needed subset of data in the second report.
This is needed for our CL, PL and Agency details report. The dashboard is from one subject area, the detail report is from another subject area. We now want to pass what the user clicked in one to the other. Please note that the dashboard prompts would get passed correctly. It is only the 'attribute' on the left side that would not.

All the columns whose values you want to pass to the detail report should be prompted in detail report and the column names should be same.
For example
If you are clicking on Period.Year column in master report then the detail report should have Period.Year column is prompted.
Subject Areas may be different but the presentation table name and column name should be different.
Thanks

How to join fields from different internal tables and display into one int

hii
you can read data as per condition and then can join in one internal table using READ and APPEND statement..refer to following code.

Report from multiple subject areas

Hi,
I need to create a report from multiple subject areas. I am not sure whether it;s possible in OBIEE answers.
Is there any other tool from OBIEE suite where I can design it?
Thanks

Yes, i can see datatype and number of columns is same in both queries.
i have challanges to copy message but Error message seems to general. Error says (near to FROM) and I checked there are three FROM in query and all seems to be ok
Query is something like as below
select SA1.col1 saw_0,
SA1.col2 saw_1,
SA2.col1 saw_2,
SA2.col2 saw_3,
FROM
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area1") SA1
FULL OUTER JOIN
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area2") SA2
ON SA1.col1 = SA2.col1
I can't see any issue in the query...please comment.

Hi RadhaKrishna,
In standard system it is not possible to create sales order from a quotation whose sales are is different.
However I think this is possible by using some user exit in sales order. I have never tried this.

Grand total feeding from Multiple Subjects Area

Hi,
I have to create a report that displays Grand total = sum of values from one subject area + sum of values from another subject area. How do i achieve this.
Thanks

Create a prompt based on the report(incl criteria) from SA1, include the measure column in the prompt, the value of the measure is based on the 'contrain' of each column in the prompt and assign to Presentation variable.
Call Presentation variable in the report which is from SA2.
ex: Report 1 from SA1 is like: $amount by year, by prodcut,by org
Report 2 from SA2 is like: $OrderAmount by year, by prodcutType,by org
Report1 by Prompt: Year->constrain, PRoduct->Constrain, Org-Constrain, $Amount as PS Var 'amt'
Report 2 as reqular report, try to call @{amt} in the report for addition.

Multiple keyfigure from different planning area based on attribute value

Multiple keyfigure from different planning area based on the attribute value of Cost element charac.
I need to obtain the value of the attribute in a fox function. Let me explain it further.
Background :
Planning area -
Charac----
KF
area1 -
Payscale group--- Amount
Cost element------AmountVR
area2--Payscalegroup----KF1
KF2
KF3
Cost Element has an attribute "Type"
Value for attribute "Type" = 1,2,3
Based on the value of the attribute, the corresponding KF needs to be multiplied.
Logic :
If type = 1.
AmountVR = Amount * KF1.
elseif type = 2.
AmountVR = Amount * KF2.
elseif type = 3.
AmountVR = Amount * KF3.
endif.
The problem I'm facing is that I'm not able to read the data of attribute "Type". None of the below statement retrieve the value of the "Type".
TYPE = ATRV(Attribute,COSTELEMENT,CO_AREA)
or
TYPE = ATRV(Attribute,COSTELEMENT)
Could you please help me in reading from a time dependent compounding InfoObject?

Dynamic From statement in select query and/or outer join not working

Dear Experts, I have a select query where the select columns are dynamic, the where condition is also dynamic. It is of the below format:
Select (dynamic columns) INTO <wa>
FROM a inner join b on af1 = bf1
inner join c on af2 = cf2......
WHERE (dynamic conditios)
ORDER BY ( dynamic sort condition).
Now I have to include some tables (dynamically depending on the user input) in the inner join statement which will give description for the selected fields. And these database tables may or may no be empty. So in this case, my select query will not return any data if these tables are empty. And I dont want that.
I tried using outer join for the extra tables but it gave me a runtime error. I also tried forming the inner join statement dynamically but it was not supporting.
Kindly give me pointers.
Thanks

Hey thanks for the reply, but the problem is not solved.
I am already using ( fileds, value) like table in my where condition and the select statement was working properly.
the problem is that now I have to include some tables in the join statement which can be empty and so i want to use Outer join.
But I am getting a runtime error as below:
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SYNTAX', was not
     caught in
    procedure "ZATSCSNG_RFC_READ_TABLE" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a
     RAISING clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    The running ABAP program wanted to execute a SELECT statement whose
    WHERE condition was (partly) specified dynamically. The part that is
    specified in an internal table at runtime is compared to a field of the
    right table of an LEFT OUTER JOIN. Such comparisons are not supported by
     all database systems and are therefore not allowed.
