Help Needed - Report Approval Process in OBIEE

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement as below
1) I will pull the data from the database and generate a report
2) Then user 1 logs in and has to approve the report
3) Then user 2 logas in and has to approve the report
Once user1 and user 2 approves then only I should make make it avalable to the remaining users...
Is it possible in OBIEE
Thanks
venkat

"You can achieve this by implementing the right security. Before approval, once the report is designed, give access to this report only to user1 and user2. When user1 logs in, he checks the report, approves it and notifies user2, then user2 logs in and approves the report and notifies you. Once report is approved by both, you can change the security permissions to make it available to all the users that needs to access it "
Hi Amit,
Thanks for quick reply
How can "User 1 checks the report, approves it and notifies user2 "
can you be more precise on it....
My requirements in more precise is
1) when user 1 logs and approves it, user 2 should see that it has been approved by user 1
2) When user 2 logs in and approves , user 1 should see it..
I want to automate the whole process .. insted of me going and chaning the security perimission .. once i it is approved by user 1 and user 2.
is it possible.....
Thansk in Advance

Report: Approval Process Timing

Hi,
1) I need a report showing me the average time it takes for each approver to approve the POs. Do you know how I can code this please?
2) Also, I would like a report which shows me a list of all PO Approval Processes related to an Approver specified within a parameter.
Thanks,
vankri

By average time I mean for example:
Purchase Order 1:
Approver 1 approves on (01/11/2009)
Approver 2 approves on (03/11/2009)
Approver 3 approves on (04/11/2009)
Purchase Order 2:
Approver 1 approves on (17/11/2009)
Approver 2 approves on (21/11/2009)
Approver 3 approves on (27/11/2009)
The dates are dates of approval.
Average time for approver 3 is 3.5 days ((1+6)/2)
The average time it takes for a user to approve after the previous approver has approved from his part.
Any ideas pls?
Thanks,
vankri

Help needed for file processing using FTP

Hi All,
I am new to ODI tool and currently we are implementing one project in ODI. Could you please, any one help me on the following requirement... how to implement it?
Scenario:
i) I need to pick a file from remote host 'outbox' dir using FTP process, and place into local 'temp' dir. (I can do it with odiFTPGet tool)
ii) Change the file as per target business requirement.??? ( this step challenging me)
for ex:
if source file name : <project name>_<source ID>_<transaction name>_<unique id>.txt
target name should be : 1234_<transaction name>_<sysdate in yyyyMMddhhmmss>_<unique id>_2345.txt ( here 1234 and 2345 are hard coded values)
iii) Later move to local 'temp' to local 'outbox' dir. ( I can do it with odiFileMove tool)
iv) After successful process move the file from remote 'outbox' to remote 'archive' dir ??? (again this is challenging me).
For this my questions are:
1) How to get file name into a variable ( In one of the post , it says we need to create data model and data stores, and interface to get the file names into a file. apart from is there any easy way i can implement it in package it self?)
2) How to tokenize a long string ( i.e., need to tokenize the source file to get <unique id> and <transaction name> and map to target file name)
3) How to define implementation for Java in user function?? do we need to use class declarations and import statements?? I need a sample user function in Java.
4) How to move/rename a file in remote server?? ( need to move file from remote 'outbox' server to remote archive' dir)
5) If any step in package fails, How to get the error msg into a variable which i can use for sending mail and raise a ticket in remedy?? ( I will pass that variable to as content to mail and remedy ticket)
6) How to handle list type data (string list) by variables in ODI?? (As we can define single variable not as list.)
I am sorry to ask all my queries I a single post. But I need to solutions for all to implement this in my project.
Thanks in advance. Appreciate early response.

Kiran.N

Can any one share your thoughts for my request.
Thanks in advance.

Need Help Configuring Membership Website with External Approval Process

I am working on configuring a membership website for a group of scientist. Here are the interesting requirements. Any brainstorming would be helpful.
1 - A prospective member applies online. Within the application the prospective member has to include a reference for previous work proving his qualifications and naming a reference to confirm the qualifications. The prospective member has to include the reference's name and email address. (Site visitor creats a new user-submitted webapp item, easy enough.)
2 - The application needs to kick off a workflow to an external site visitor (someone who doesn't have a site login). This reference needs to confirm of reject the prospective member's qualifications.
3 - If the external site visitor approves the reference, then the membership director needs to be emailed of the approval. This approval should then kickoff another approval process to ask the membership director for his approval.
4 - If the external site visitor rejects the reference, then the membership directory needs to be emailed the rejection notification. (If the reference rejects then there will be some sort of appeal process or ability to start over or submit a different reference.)
5 - If the reference approves and the membership director approves, then the prospective member is notified and submitted an invoice to pay. His memberhsip is not active until he pays.
6 - Once the member pays, then he appears in the online directory.
7 - The member will also be able to login and edit his profile as needed.
That about sums it up. Any ideas??
THANKS!

1. Do I need to connect the two base stations via an ethernet cable?
OR
Can I simply plug the second base station into a power outlet in any room, along with the external hard drive connected to it's USB port?
Airport Utility would not even recognize the second base station unless it is using an ethernet LAN-to-LAN connection. (It would not recognize the second base station with WAN-to-LAN connection.)
You basically have three choices here that will allow the second AEBSn to share the attached USB HDD:
Wired: Interconnect the two AEBSns by Ethernet; reconfigure both base stations into a roaming network.
Wireless: Configure both AEBSns for an extended network. Note: This is what Lowell Tuttman is referring to.
Wireless: Configure the second AEBSn as its own wireless network. This would work but would require network clients to switch network to access the drive or access the Internet. Not really practical and not recommended.
The following Apple Support link provides very detailed information on setting up either a roamng or extended network with multiple AirPorts.
2. Since I don't really care about the second base station utilizing the internet connection, do I set it up in Airport Utility as "create a new wireless network"?
This is the current setting and I have a steady green light. However, Time Machine does not recognize the disk.
In the first choice I provided, the second AEBSn would be configured to both "Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network" and "Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)."

Excel MSGraph Axis Value w/ Report Gentration Tool kit help needed

Hello,
I am working on making all my Printed Data sheets dynamic so I don't need to have an Excel Template for each test I create. I have been able to make my own modifications to some of the Report Generation tool kit VIs to add little things I need or want changed, but I am stuck.
I currently have LabVIEW writing Charts in Excel, using the Insert Graph VIs from the tool kit but I want to be able to make the X Axis Values invisible but leave the Y values for this particular data sheet. I have looked through all my documentation but cannot find anything referring to setting that.
What is the correct ActiveX Method and/or Property that I need to incorporate to do this? I found that in Excel if I click on the Chart it is in the Chart Options Menu but I cannot find a way to control it through LabVIEW.
I am currently using 7.1.1 with Office 98 and the Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.0
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,
LabVIEW should have access to everything that the excel ActiveX object publishes. One way to discover how to do it would be to record a macro in excel, where your recorded actions are on the x-axis as you desire. This way you will have a macro which you can run that will do this for you. Perhpas more importantly, you will then be able to look at the code for that macro you recorded, and make the equivalent calls in LabVIEW, which should basically expose which ActiveX calls on that object achieve the axis modification. In any event, to help you with this process, below are some useful links. Also, you will find other threads on this matter if you search the discussion forums.

Reports in process server....HELP!!!!!

Hi, I have installed 9i R2 Infrastructure and Application server on one machine and everything is running fine except the OEM shows that Report in process server rep_<host> is down, then I started it using command "rwserver server=rep_<host>" and it started fine but still in OEM shows it is down.
I am trying to call a report from my form application and it is giving me error message that Report server rep_<host> cannot be contacted. I also specified TNS entry for Report server.
Can someone help me out or tell me what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Amit

Hi
There may be some issue with OEM site. After starting your Report server, please bounce the BI_FORMS oc4j instance where Report Servlet is running. If you running a standalone server and not using the in-process server, it is better if you keep a name for standalone Report server which is different from in-process server name i.e. the default one. You need to keep a tnsentry only if you are using 6i Forms client. It will start a Report server listener for 6i clients. Hope this helps!
Thanks

PO Approval fundamentals help needed

Hi friends
I have some very basic query regarding Purchase order cancellation and approval process in Oracle 11i (11.5.10.2). pls consider the followings
*1)* is it possible for a PO where its Approval Status = In Process while its closure status = Closed?
*2)* What happens when i cancel an Approved PO's PO line (for example, i may cancel due quantity which i wish to not receive anymore)? does it go through the approval hierarchy for re-approval (approval status becomes In Process) or just stay approved?
*3)* is it a normal behavior for a PO when it shows Approval Status = In Process but Action History says its Approved?
i need to know the normal behavior in every case i mentioned above. Can anyone pls help me?
thanks in advance.
Lisan

1. yes
2. stays approved

Approval process QUERY - Please help guys....

Hello Experts,
I have found some threads in this subject but non of them seem to work for me.
My need is :
when my employee tries to turn an order into an Invoice witch its card is set to groupname of 'over seas clients' the invoice will not be produced and the approval pop up will show.
this is what i tryed :
SELECT distinct 'true' FROM OINV T0 INNER JOIN OCRD T1 ON T0.CardCode = T1.CardCode INNER JOIN OCRG T2 ON T1.GroupCode = T2.GroupCode AND T2.GroupName 'Over seas clients' where T0.CardCode = $[$4.0.0]
nothing happens and the approval pop up never shows up.
Could someone Please help me with this query?
Thanks alot
D.med

I thin approval process work like in this manner.
when you add any SO for particular condition matches then approval pop up will come, and then that SO gone to Approval. After approval user can able to make Invoice.
Hence i think in your case you need to made a query in SO that when the particular groupname is added then aproval should pop up.
Else you can kept the approval process in AR Invoice that if particular groupname is added then pop up.
For Approval process you need to select this query in Approval Template.
