Filter on Fact columns at report level- obiee 11g

Hello,
The error I am getting in my report is : Incorrectly defined logical table source (for fact table SUMM) does not contain mapping for [LEDGERFACT.CD, LEDGERFACT.YEARID].
The Model(Physical and BMM Layer) is as follows: DIM_LF_B is joined to 2 fact tables LEDGERFACT and SUMMARY
DIM_RPT_PARAM -> DIM_LF_B -> LEDGERFACT
DIM_RPT_PARAM -> DIM_LF_B -> SUMMARY
Note that the aggregation is not set for any of the Fact columns. (I am aware that all measures have to be set some aggregation type , but Client restrictions as not to edit the rpd :( )
Now on the report front, i have pulled following columns:
>> Col name: Description ||| Forumla: DIM_RPT_PARAM.ITEM_DESC
>> Col name: Actual Amt ||| Formula: case when SUMMARY.MONTHID=3 and SUMMARY.YEARID=2012 then sum(SUMM.AMT_1) else 0 end
>> Col name: Plan Amt ||| Formula: case when LEDGERFACT.YEARID=2012 and LEDGERFACT.CD=300 then sum(LEDGERFACT.AMT_1) else 0 end
I am not able to understand as to why the BI server is throwing the error.
I tried removing the case condition and just applying the sum(as below), and the report comes up.
Col name: Description ||| Forumla: DIM_RPT_PARAM.ITEM_DESC
Col name: Actual Amt ||| Formula: sum(SUMM.AMT_1)
Col name: Plan Amt ||| Formula: sum(LEDGERFACT.AMT_1) Also for the following combination the report works
1)
>> Col name: Description ||| Forumla: DIM_RPT_PARAM.ITEM_DESC
>> Col name: Actual Amt ||| Formula: sum(SUMM.AMT_1)
>> Col name: Plan Amt ||| Formula: case when LEDGERFACT.YEARID=2012 and LEDGERFACT.CD=300 then sum(LEDGERFACT.AMT_1) else 0 end
2)
>> Col name: Description ||| Forumla: DIM_RPT_PARAM.ITEM_DESC
>> Col name: Actual Amt ||| Formula: case when SUMMARY.MONTHID=3 and SUMMARY.YEARID=2012 then sum(SUMM.AMT_1) else 0 end
>> Col name: Plan Amt ||| Formula: sum(LEDGERFACT.AMT_1)
Any help appreciated.
Thnks,
Shruti

Hi Shruthi,
To be clear you have one table 'DIM_LF_B' and its separated out as FACT and DIM in BMM layer with respective formulas ? If yes check this http://www.varanasisaichand.com/2012/04/fact-and-dimension-from-single-source.html
let me know if it is different

Filter two different columns in a Dashboard, OBIEE 11g

Hi everyone,
I have read many times this forum, but I this is my first post. I have a problem with OBIEE 11g and I hope you guys could help me.
In the dashboard I have created, there is an analysis table which has the following columns:
(1) Month - (2) Doctor's Name - (3) Num. of Appointments Month 1 - (4) Num. Appointments Month 2
The point is that I want the users to choose in their dashboard a month to filer column (3) and a month to filter column (4), so they can have a comparative view of the number of appointments for each month. I have tried to do this with prompts, but what happened is that the prompt filtered ALL the columns, not just one of them.
So, is there any way of filtering just one column? I mean, when in the dashboard view, not in the analysis creation view.
Thank you in advanced! :)

Hang on a minute... I think this is possible.
Set up two dashboard prompts to populate 2 presentation variables for your first and second months.
Once you have a presentation variable you can fix the value of column 3 and 4 using the "Filter using" syntax (check the functions list when you edit the column formula). By using Filter using you should be able to pass in the value of your presentation variable.

Query on filter on fact column

Query on filter on fact column
IN OBIA AR Transactions subject Area
the fact is filtered on (RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='REV' OR RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='UNEARN') in the Informatica ETL
(RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='REV' OR RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='UNEARN')
I need to bring in the Tax information within the subject area from the table above and extend the Filter to include 'Tax'
(RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='REV' OR RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='UNEARN')
and
(RA_CUST_TRX_LINE_GL_DIST_ALL.ACCOUNT_CLASS='TAX')- which comes from Account_class
will this amendment affect the existing subject area and in turn produce higher report numbers
secondly
if i would like to understand how i would try and work out the report
AR amount split by tax
Invoice Number Account class AR Amount
001 REV 100
001 Tax 20
to produce the above report i have to remove the filter on the ETL
but make sure that when the user DOES NOT hits the Column Account class in analysis then by default put a filter on the fact column source which keeps only 'REV' or 'UNEARN'
thanks

The answer lies in GL revenue analysis subject area

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...........

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...........

How to build a Analysis report in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have a query regarding 'How to' to build an analysis report in OBIEE 11g.
The data model is a financial data model, where information such as Actual, Plan, Forecast, What - if etc for current AND prior year need to be displayed in a dashboard.
I created two analysis reports one for current year Rep1 and second for prior year Rep2 each with filter criteria as current year and prior year respectively based on years column. and then in the dashboard I created prompt based on scenario column (radio button) for Actual, plan, Forecast, and wht if.
I am able to show the current vs prior year data in the same dashboard for Actual or Plan or forecast or what if (depending on data availability in the database).
I want to achieve the same information in a single analysis report instead of two separate analysis reports. I do not want to create separate physical report for current and prior year data.
I need one analysis report which I can use in dashboard and depending on selection for scenario (actual , plan, forecast or wht if) I want to show the current AND prior year data the way I achieved in with two seperate reports embedded in their respective sections as explained above.
Does any one have idea how to achive this by building single analysis report?
If you need any more clarificaiton or have any queries, please let me know.
Thanks and Regards
Santosh

As per I understand your requirement,
In your Dashboard create a Presentation variable which receives the value of year you select.
Now in your analysis, select the year column along with all the measures you want (Actual, plan, Forecast, and what-if, etc).
Create a filter on Year column and convert it into SQL. Put the condition as:
"Year" BETWEEN @{Presentaion_Variable} - 1 AND @{Presentation_Variable}
You will get the result for selected year and the previous year.
Hope it helps..

I get the same issue. I thought that it's a problem in a security - the catalog pane is clear in a union report. But saved filters work in 11g. I migrated catalog from 10g to 11g and I see saved filters in the conditions. But you may add saved filters directly into xml. Go on Tab Advanced and edit Analysis XML. You have to add code like this
<sawx:expr xsi:type="sawx:savedFilter" path="/shared/FOLDER/_filters/FOLDER/FILTER_NAME" name="FILTER_NAME"/> in a right place.

Essbase reports in OBIEE 11g

Hi Experts,
The Essbase reports in OBIEE 11g is displaying the member names instead of the Alias names. However in OBIEE 10g the Alias names are rightly displayed.
Can anyone please suggest on how it is possible to display the alias names in OBIEE 11g?

Hi,
thanks for ur reply. I checked the above workaround but found that the option Display Column -> Alias is not enabled. So am not able to select it. Hence now Member names is selected.
Please let me know if i am missing something else.

Column level filter at RPD level - OBIEE 11g

Hi all,
How do i add a filter at the column level in logical layer for one of the metric , it has the following calculation
case when id in (1,2,3,4,5,5) and category='AS' then case when points=10 or points=9 then 1 else 0 end end
I want the metric to reused for other id's as well... so i want to put case when id in (1,2,3,4,5,5) in filter of the column. how do i achieve it? plz help
Thanks,
Lona

Your question is not clear, I assume you want points to be reused for other ids, so try this
case when id in (1,2,3,4,5,5) and category='AS' then
case when points in (10 ,9) then 1
else 0
end
else points
end

Different calculation on each column in table in obiee 11g report??

Hi ,
I have to display values in a table for measures in obiee 11g report which should hold different calculation on each column. For ex:
Result 1:
Flag Display   Transaction Amount
C      'A'                 2              3
C      'B'                 3               0
       SubTotal1            5             3
Result 2:
Flag Display   Transaction Amount
H      'C'                 2              11
H      'D'                  0              0
       SubTotal2          2             11
Result 3:
Flag Display   Transaction Amount
H      'C'                 1              0
H      'D'                  1            0
       SubTotal3          2            0
Final Result:(Transaction shd hold :-subtotal1-subtal2 , Amount should hold:-subtotal1-subtal2+subtota3)
Flag   Display               Transaction         Amount
C    'total tran(1-2)              3                     8
       Total Amnt(1-2+3)'
Please help me how can i achieve this ... ??? I am new to OBIEE 11g.
Thanks,
Pavi

There are a few things I cannot understand; I'm assuming Transaction and Amount are fact columns. Then how do they have different values for the same values of Flag and Display ??
Anyway, sub total can be achieved by going to edit view for the table and from columns and measures area under the Layout pane click on the summation icon and select After. This will automatically display a grand total value at the bottom of each fact column.
Now, to get the final result, say Total Transaction you can add a dummy column and edit its formula.
     Total Transaction = trans_subtotal1 - trans_subtotal2 and
     Total Amount = amt_subtotal1 - amt_subtotal2 + amt_subtotal3
     Now if we could say that trans_subtotal1 is the total of transaction value when Flag = 'C' or something like that then you can get this value of subtotal1 by using the formula FILTER(SUM("Subject Area"."Folder".Transaction Column") USING (DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("Subject Area"."Folder"."Flag column") = 'C')). Similarly we can obtain subtotal2 and subtract them to get the total transaction value. But I am sure if we can do this because for the same values of Flag and Display, Transaction has different values. But by using the above formula, the values we obtain for subtotals 2 and 3 will be the same. So calculating Total Amount would be a problem.
The above formula is obtained by going to edit formula and selecting the filter option at the bottom of the edit dialog box.
Hope I made my point clear
