The definitions of saved selections created within XSA are stored in the system project file (xpaddin.xpj which is just a binary file) of the user who created them. Saved selections created in this way are only accessible to the user that created them through XSA. This file is located in the XSA directory.

  • Express Spreadsheet Add-in Saved Selections

    Hi All,
    I am currently doing some development with Express 6.3.4 and the Spreadsheet Add-in with Excel.
    I was wondering if anyone new where the Saved Selections, created using the Express Wizard Selector are stored, so that I could refer to them programtically using the API.

    If anyone has a solution pls help

    I presume you would have to programatically walk through the worksheets within the workbook and issue the refresh option for each worksheet.

  • User name and password for Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-in

    Dear all,
    I downloaded Oracle Database 10g Express Edition and I installed it successfully. I created a new account. Then I downloaded Oracle Business Intelligence Spreadsheet Add-in and I installed it successfully as well (both on my PC).
    Now I would like to run Oracle Business Intelligence Spreadsheet Add-in but I don't know the way of running it. I click "New query". Then I go to the "Connection editor". There are four boxes.
    "Description box" is clear. I write 127.0.0.1 or k219 (it's the name of my computer) into the "Host name box". As the "Port Number box" I use 1521. Then I write xe into the "SID box".
    Then I return to the "OLAP connection tab". There are items: user name and password. I try to write user name and password created in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition. And the result is an error: Faild to connect to OLAP service

    When u install Oracle 10g, it forces u to enter new passwords for System as well as scott user and it does not allow u to keep old know passwords as manager and tiger.
    If u installed with new passwords successfully, u must be knowing those new passwords and there is no reason to try with system/manager. Instead try to connect with new passwords. We never faced such problems.
    If the problems still persits, check that
    a) Oracle service is running
    b) Instance is running by and whether u are able to connect / as sysdba

    Hello,
    I went through the same process as user484588, and received the same results.
    I have some Access/Excel VBA programs that I use to verify the results of an Essbase cube. Having worked with Oracle products quite a bit in the past, I am reviewing Oracle XE to possibly replace them. The database and forms writer components of XE looks pretty cool, but I need a lot more in the way of report writer.
    I have connected Excel to the XE database using Data/Import External Data, but that's no better than my current Access/Excel implementation.
    Are there any other reporting tools available for use with XE?

  • How to hide display details in sap gui and create ad-hoc request in UWL?

    Hi,
    how to hide display "details in sap gui" and "create ad-hoc request" in UWL?
    Please telme the step-by-step procedure to hide "details in sap gui" and "create ad-hoc request".
    Thanks,
    Rashmi

    Hi,
    Thanks for the information. It was very helpfull.
    Can you please tellme where can we fine UWL iView? I tried to find this out in two ways.
    1) Portal Content -> Content Provided by SAP -> End User Content -> Standard Portal Users -> Views -> com.sap.coll.iviews -> Universal Worklist (finally i got this iView). Here i dint find any property called "List of UWL Actions to exclude". In the link which you had given, its written that we can modify the iView and add the name of the actions under the Actions to exclude from the UWL property.
    Which iView do we need to modify and where can i find that property?
    2) I downloaded the xml file and then tried to find this property "List of UWL Actions to exclude" or " Actions to exclude from the UW". But i couldnt find both the properties in xml file.
    Thanks,
    Rashmi

  • Is there a spreadsheet add-in 9i OLAP

    Is there a spreadsheet add-in available to access OLAP cubes for the 9i database. Oracle Express has a spreadsheet add-in that allows ad hoc queries. Is there something similar for the new 9i OLAP option?

    Dear Nathan,
    Regarding to OLAP question, you should post your question to OLAP forum @ OLAP

  • Conditionally Hide/Display fields in a region

    How can I conditionally hide/display fields in a region. Based on a user selection whether they want to 'Enter' or 'Select', I want to dispaly the appropriate field .i.e. if the user selects 'Enter' then I want to display a Text field and if they opt for 'Select', then I want to display a Select list.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Hilal

    Hi Halil,
    I've been trying to reproduce what the linked site does.
    Here's my solution:
    1 - Add all items to the page whether or not they are going to be displayed
    2 - Ensure that all items that could be shown/hidden are on lines on their own (ie, set New Line to Yes)
    3 - In the region's Region Footer (or in a new HTML region in the Before Footer position), add in this bit of javascript:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    html_HideItemRow('NameOfFieldToHide');
    -- repeat for each item to be hidden when the page first loads
    </script>
    4 - On the radio button's definition, add the following in the HTML Form Element Attributes setting:
    onclick="html_ToggleItemRow('NameOfDisplayedItem');html_ToggleItemRow('NameOfHiddenItem');"
    Now when the page is loaded, one field is automatically hidden then clicking any of the radio button options will toggle the hidden/displayed fields and their labels.
    As stated before, if you do a View Source on the linked application's page, you will see either more methods that are used to show/hide items/regions, but the above should be a starting point for you.
    Regards

  • Saved Selections missing from Spreadsheet Add-in

    Hi,
    One of my end users is having a problem with the Oracle Spreadsheet Add-In that no-one else seems to be having and I'm at a loss for what to suggest to him.
    Yesterday he encountered some network related problem which left it impossible for the Spreadsheet Add-in to connect to the AW on the database. Everybody else that uses OLAP cubes was still able to connect without problems. When he entered the username and password and pressed connect the system hangs for a few seconds and then returns to the spreadsheet without invoking the wizard. Our desktop services team looked at the problem and couldn't resolve it so have re-installed the Spreadsheet Add-In. This has resolved his connection problems and he is able to build his own queries using the cubes.
    The problem that he is now finding is that the saved selection criteria that he had previously been using was no longer visible to him. I.e. when he is in the wizard building a query based on a cube, he selects, say, the time dimension, and rather than selecting from the members tab on the left-hand side of the screen, he moves to the Saved Selection tab. It is at this point that he would usually see a list of his previously saved selections - but he doesn't see any folders or selections.
    When I reproduce his steps on my computer I see a folder called Users and then another folder with the schema name and then underneath that there are a number of saved selections. I can select these without any problems.
    I'm not sure if this problem is related to permissions somewhere or if somehow the installation is incomplete.
    Has anyone encountered this before??
    LM

    The first step to resolving this issue is to check your Analytic Workspace is working. Within AWM can you right click on each dimension and select the option "View data" - make sure you can drill up and down on each dimension. Then repeat this process for each of your cubes. I suspect there is something wrong with either a dimension or cube. If you cannot see data within AWM then Excel will not with either.
    If the data viewer in AWM is working OK, then Excel should work as well.

  • Creating automatically "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In" files (Excel files)

    I have the necessity of create automatically an excel file with a query to a multidimensional model (ROLAP Cube). It exists any API for a programation language that makes easy this process of creation?
    How "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In" saves the metadata in the excel file, for example, the information about the database (host name, database name), dimensions and measures selected by the user when a query is made with the "Query Builder"?
    It is possible to share any information about this subject?
    Thanks!!!
    Rui Torres

    I exported to xml an excel file with a query, that was produced by the “Query Builder”, and it is true that the metadata that contains the information about the database, dimensions and measures selected, is specified in xml and is stored in hidden sheets.
    My problem is not to create an excel file (create sheets, write in the cells,...) because it exists some apis that do this kind of operations.
    My difficulty, is to produce the xml metadata, that is defined by Oracle, and contains the information that is used by "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In" to put the data in the cells of an excel sheet.
    What I want to know is, for example, if exists any kind of function that receives the name of the host, the name of the database, the owner of the cube, the cube name and all the options that we can choose in the “Query Builder” (measures and dimensions that we want, the disposition of the dimensions - layout), and return a String with the Oracle’s xml metadata.
    With this xml metadata that is returned, I am prepared to create an excel file, that have the functionality of to connect to a database, and get the data that is stored in it.
    Thanks!!!

  • Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-in Licensing

    Is anybody aware of the licensing policy with Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-in? Are these licenses to be purchased separately or avaiable with the install of database with OLAP option? Any advise or reference to documentation would be useful.
    We have the following database installed and licensed currently:
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning, Oracle Label Security, OLAP, Data Mining
    and Real Application Testing optionsWe have the Oracle 10g version with OLAP option installed
    Thanks,S
    Sudip

    The Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-in is included in your OLAP Option license.
    You might also be intested in knowing that you wil soon be able to use Excel 'natively' using an MDX connection to an Oracle 11g cube. This is a very nice solution. If you have the opportunity to evaluate Oracle11g OLAP (which as lots and lots of enhancements), you should definiately be looking at this solution.

  • "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In" – bug on the page items

    I detected that "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In" has a bug on the page items. It occurs when I have more than one page item. What happens is that all the page items (except the first), don’t permit to select other values. This is, I can click in the ComboBox, I can see the values that the ComboBox contains and I can select a value of the ComboBox. When I select other value, the add-in executes the query (it refreshes the sheet), but the value of the combo is not modified, and the values of the facts aren’t also modified. (The query that is done is the same)
    But if I change the layout, and put the page item in the first position, the value of the ComboBox is modified and a new query is executed.
    I am using only ROLAP cubes.
    The version of the database is 10.1.0.4.0.
    I did an upgrade from 10.1.0.2.0 to 10.1.0.4.0.
    The version of "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In” is:
    Release 1 version 10.1.2.0.0 - (build 10.1.2.0.36)
    When is done a new version of "OracleBI Spreadsheet Add-In”, without this bug?
    Regards,
    Rui Torres

    The metadata is ok according to “Oracle Enterprise Manager Website”.
    The version of Excel that I use is:
    Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (11.5612.5606).
    But is very stranger that the first page item works perfectly and the others have a bad behaviour, isn’t it?
