Hide Query filter values and column width default

Hello Everyone,
In our query definition we have default filter(restriction) values. When query is output it shows these filtered(restricted) values.
Is there anyway to hide these? We dont' want users seeing this.
Also, the column width defaults to the largest output in the column (Excel standard). Is there anyway to override this? I tried in a workbook to set the column width to a certain width, but the query did not read this?
Thanks so much,
Colleen

Hi Colleen,
To set column widths, use the BW Properties dialog. In Excel, select any cell that is part of query definition, right-click ... you should now see a context-specific dialog. The last option in the dialog is always Properties. Go to the Column width tab and pick from there.
For the filter values ... you should be able to delete these cells and they should not re-appear (unless someone goes to the BW toolbar and selects Layout >> Display text elements).
Hope this helps.

How to access sort direction and filter value of columns? Can I catch the 'filtered' or 'sorted' event?

We have some columns being added to a table. We have set the sortProperty and the filterProperty on each of our columns.
This allows us to both filter and sort.
We want to be able to access the columns filter value and sort value after the fact. Can we access the table and then the columns and then a columns properties to find these two items? How can I access the sort direction and filter value of columns?
We would also like to store the filter value and the sort direction, and re-apply them to the grid if they have been set in the past. How can we dynamically set the filter value and sort direction of a column?
Can I catch or view the 'filtered' or 'sorted' event? We would like to look at the event that occurs when someone sorts or filters a column. Where can I see this event or where can i tie into it, without overwriting the base function?

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share how I implemented this:
Attach a sort event handler to table - statusReportTable.attachSort(SortEventHandler);
In this event handler, grab the sort order and sorted column name then set cookies with this info
function SortEventHandler(eventData)
    var sortOrder = eventData.mParameters.sortOrder;
    var columnName = eventData.mParameters.column.mProperties.sortProperty;
    SetCookie(sortDirectionCookieName, sortOrder, tenYears);
    SetCookie(sortedColumnCookieName, columnName, tenYears);
Added sortProperty and filterProperty to each column definition:
sortProperty: "ColName", filterProperty: "ColName",
When i fill the grid with data, i check my cookies to see if a value exists, and if so we apply this sort:
function FindAndSortColumnByName(columnName, sortDirection (true or false))
    var columns = sap.ui.getCore().byId('statusReportTable').getColumns();
    var columnCount = columns.length;
    for(var i = 0; i < columnCount; i ++)
        if(columns[i].mProperties.sortProperty == columnName)
            columns[i].sort(sortDirection);

Question about the Cluster and Column width in Graphs in Illustrator CS2

How do they relate to each other? How do the Percentages work together? Is there any information about how you can mathematically figure how much area each Cluster width takes. If you make a graph and make both the cluster and column widths 100%, the entire area is filled. If you make the Column width 50% the bar will sit exactly in the center of the Cluster width, but if you make the cluster width 75%, the bars move closer together.

Gregg,
The set of bars that represent each row of data in the graph spreadsheet is called a "cluster".
Let's let
   W = the width of the whole area inside the graph axes
   R = the number of rows of data
   C = the number of columns of data
Then the maximum potential space to use for each row of data is W/R. The cluster width controls how much of this potential space is assigned to each row. This cluster space is then divided by C, giving the maximum potential width of each bar. The maximum potential width for each bar is then multiplied by the column width percentage to get the actual width of each bar.
So the actual width of each bar is ((W/R)*Cluster width)/C)*Column width
The graphs illustrated below have three rows of data, with two columns each. The solid colored areas in the background have the same cluster width as the main graph, but they all have a column width of 100%. This lets you see more easily how the gradient bars that have a column width of 80% are using up 80% of their potential width.
Notice that as the Cluster percentage gets lower, the group of bars that represent a row of data get farther apart, so that you can more easily see the "clumping" of rows. When the Cluster percentage is 100%, the columns within each row are no closer to each other than they are to the columns in other rows.
As the Column percentage gets lower, the bars for each data value occupy less of the space within their row's cluster, so that spaces appear between every bar, even in the same row.

Display Report Level Filter value and Input Controls Value

Hi,
Please let me know how to display Report Level Filter value and Input COntrol values in the report.
I have 2 tabs in the WebI Report. The first tab has the summary details about the other tabs like reprot desc, prompt values, reprot filter values,etc.
In the 2nd tab I have the actual report which has input controls defined, prompt values and global level report filters.
Can anyone please tell me how to display the Report level filter values and the Input Control values in the first tab report.
For ex: Tab 2 has a Report level filter: Region = NA
I need to display in Tab 1 in as Region: NA
I used the function ReportFilterSummary but that is giving me other details, I want only the object name and the value.
Also how to dispaly the Input Control values in the tab 1.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions for this issue.
Thanks

did you try
=ReportFilter([Year])
if you are making report filter over the year, it will return the value of the filter
by the way, the filter should be applied over all the report not to a specific block to be able to get the correct value
the Input control also considered as report filter, only if you're applying them on the level of the report, if you applying an input contron over a specific block or chart, you will not get the values for ReportFilter
good luck

Passing filter values from column formula in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
I am trying to pass filter value from the column LY Spend YTD columns where we have a filter option and passing the year filter 2013 as below.
FILTER("Fact - Purchasing - Invoice"."LY Spend YTD" USING (Time."Year" = '2013'))
My goal behind doing this is, we have a filter already present for the whole criteria on the year which is 2012.
But specifically for this column i dont want to pass the year 2012 to it, Instead I want to pass 2013 to it. But I am not succeding the result is blank.
Please suggest and let me know if further understanding is needed.

Hi Srini
Thanks for you reply.
I cannot do that way because some measures are satisfying with year 2012 and displaying the data and other measure are satisfying with 2013.
I am working on LY Spend YTD, LY spend YTD - 1, Spend YTD and Year ago spend.
So thats the reason I have thought that way of passing the filter in column formula irrespective of criteria filter.
Please suggest.

Multiple exclusion of query filter values

Hello,
We are trying to find a way to do a multiple selection of non consecutive values (codes) to be excluded for further navigation, but either in Excel or Web reports it is only possible to do selections for exclusion one by one and when there are many non consecutive values, it is very time consuming and subject to errors.
Example: for listing customers that buy Material 1 but don´t buy Material 2, filter value 2 for Material, display all customers, then perform an exclusion of all the customers displayed, could be many, then the need of the multiple exclusion, and then do a Material selection for Material 1.
We appreciate any help on this subject.
Regards
Gustavo Sanson

Hi Gustavo,
I think you can use precalculated value sets for this.
I would leverage your example.
You would have a base query 'X' which displays all customers for which material2 ws sold foar a certain period.
This report will run in the background and fill the variable which is of precalculated value set type.
For this you will have to use broadcasting.
Create a broadcast setting for this base query X, name it customers for material 2.
Configure the broadcast setting to refer to characteristic customer for getting the multiple values.
Create a variable for customers in your actual quey and select its type as precalulated variable set.
Now when you run the actual query, you will see the variable in the variable popup and if you choose F4 value help, you will see your braodcast setting name, which is actually the precalculated value set.
Use the operator to exclude.
One advantage with precalculated value set is , you can dynamically generate this list of multiple values at run time and for every period. You can schedule the broadcast setting to calculate the value set at whatever frequency you desire.
Check the link below for more explanation on precalculated value set.

Report Row Height and Column Width

Hi,
I have a cell in a report (a description column) that causes the row height to become very large (when there is a lot of text in the description). I can make the column wider on the report attributes page, but there doesn't seem to be any place to influence the maximum height of a row on a report, short of modifying the template.
Adding style attributes (e.g. max-height:30px) to an element only affects the <span> that the element resides in, not the table cell or row.
Displaying the column as a text area is a useful workaround. The downside is the border and scroll bars do waste a lot of screen real estate. Does there exist some other way of setting a limit on the height and/or width of a report, report column or report row?
Oh, and another question- how do make line breaks in this forum? There's no support for <BR> or [br].

Please reply to this thread, my customer is facing the same issue. He does not have issue with the excel and the pdf output but in the rtf output the table heght increases to accomadate the data.He want it to bevave in the same way as the pdf do.

How to hide compounded object values in columns ?

Hello Everyone,
I have one MD object called depreciation area which has 3 objects in compounding tab called company code, asset and asset sub number.
When I try to add depreciation area in columns part of Bex query, I see that there are multiple columns comming up for same depr area. This is possibly because there are multiple entries in the SID table for same depreciation area and different combination of company code, asset and asset sub number.
I want to avoid this and only display columns with unique depreciation areas i.e one column for each depreciation area.
I am using BI 7.0.
Can anyone help me with this.
Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Pravender,
These three objects are used in rows part also and there are selections given to these objects. So I cannot restrict them to a set of values, since I am using variable to get input value from.
Thanks,

List GUIBB and Column Width

Hi Experts
We're facing some strange behavior: The width of each column in our List GUIBB is always full browser width. From our point of view the corresponding feeder class works fine, the GET_DEFINITION method provides a field catalog and corresponding field descriptions.
Did anyone of you faced the same problem? What do we wrong?

HI
Please tell us how this was solved. We are facing the same issue with Form UIBB.

Document Tabs: Set Value and Tab Width

1. Would like to be able to assign a tab name (value) to any document, at least for the current session and preferably as a permanent document property.
2. Would like to be able to set min/max tab widths and L/R margins (white space). Setting could be in pixels or characters, either would be fine. Probably a product-level preference, though could be implemented differently.
Thank you kindly,
Elchanan

UI Browser and column width

I am trying to get UI Browser help me set the width of a column, normally done by double clicking at the bottom of the scroll bar where the 2 hash marks are.
Here is what I have tried so far but to no avail. Even Bill Cheeseman wrote me back and couldnt get it to work. I though maybe you have to enable either the scroll area first , or the grow area, any ideas how to script the width of a column of a Finder window.
activate application "Finder"
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Finder"
select scroll area 1 of scroll area 1 of browser 1 of splitter group 1 of window "Documents"
set enabled of scroll area 1 of scroll area 1 of browser 1 of splitter group 1 of window "Documents" to true
tell grow area 1 of scroll area 1 of scroll area 1 of browser 1 of splitter group 1 of window 1
click
delay 0.01
click
end tell
end tell
end tell

I think the problem may be related to the double-click speed when using System Events, so you might try another way to click at the screen location. Cliclick is a handy little utility that can double-click at an arbitrary screen location - it seems to work OK with the following script (you will need to change the (POSIX) path to wherever you put the shell script):
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFEE80;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
tell application "Finder"
try
if current view of window 1 is not column view then error
on error
return
end try
activate
tell application "System Events" to tell application process "Finder"
try -- get the last column resizer
get position of grow area 1 of last scroll area of scroll area 1 of browser 1 of splitter group 1 of window 1
on error -- oops, only one column
get position of grow area 1 of scroll area 1 of scroll area 1 of browser 1 of splitter group 1 of window 1
end try
tell the result to set {X, Y} to {(item 1) + 7, (item 2) + 7} -- center in the grow area
do shell script "/the/path/to/cliclick d" & X & space & Y
end tell
end tell
</pre>

Hide Filter Values

Hello Experts is it possible to hide the Filter values in our reports, i mean after opening the report from WAD, you have free characteristics, rows and columns, beside that you have filter where you filter based on paticular value....
But in my senerio when i clcik on filter button, it is giving me a list of all the values for that column, sfter that i have the text boxes with filter range.
Is it possible for me to remove all the values that are displaying above the text boxes, so that i can have only the Text boxes where the user can enter the desired values..
Thank you,
Kris...

Kris,
I am not sure if that is possible. One more way to do it would be to have a separate pop up instead and take in the user's input and pass it along the URL. Only thing is you will have to do a lot more JavaScript coding for the same and also input help will be tough to achieve. In short , it is not do able with just a setting.
