Help with OBIEE reports on Oracle 11g Cube

Question

Hi,
We have created a 4-Dimensional Oracle 11g cube using AWM 11g and have integrated that with the OBIEE repository using the Dimension Hierarchy views as created by AWM.
Now, when we create a “table” type of report with this cube in OBIEE Answers, all goes fine – we can see all the expected data in the report. However, if we create a “pivot table” type of report using the same selection (query) criteria as in the “table” type of report, then all the cells corresponding to the measure columns show up as blank (empty) – no data is populated in the measure cells. This happens regardless of the positioning of the 4 dimensions in the pivot table - columns, sections, and pages.
Are we missing something in the repository/report setup here? Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Piyush
Our Environment:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
AWM v11.1.0.6.0A
Cube Type: OLAP 11g
Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 10.1.3.3.2
Any help on this thread is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Piyush

Hi Marcus,
I have now been able to resolve this issue. Here's a summary of what happened in my case:
Cause of Problem –
The default aggregation method for the measures is set to "None" in the OBIEE repository.
Resolution -
In OBIEE answers pivot table report, click on the "More Options..." icon next to the measure name in the measures column. Then select "Aggregation Rule > Sum" and this should do the trick !!
(Please note that in the as-is situation, you will see that the Aggregation Rule is set to Default - you have to change this to SUM).
This is how it worked for me.
Hope this helps. Please do let me know how you get on with this.
Best Regards,
Piyush
