Hide Reset button in dashboard prompt

Helllo,
There is a issue with the reset button in the dashboard prompt where it clears the selections made, only if apply button is not clicked on. As per oracle that is the intended functionality of 'reset' button, however if you want to clear the selections made in the prompt -- go to clear my selections!
Now this is the senario i am facing, i made a custom link and placed bellow the prompt which would clear the selections made, now i want to hide the 'reset' button or atleast change change the name from reset to something else like 'clear' and change the position of the button.
Could anybody help me how I can achieve this, may be tweak xml of prompt template, i dont know. I think it is ok until the functionality of this button is changed by oracle in next releases to tweak the source xml for this prompt, so that I dont have to do it individually for every prompt.
Thanks!

Refer...http://kalpesh-obiee-eklavya.blogspot.com/2011/06/reset-button-on-prompts-11g.html
I'd say rather than customizing XML here just give a static text message below/above the prompt stating the difference between Reset and Clear Prompts Button Functionality. Users can make use of both as per requirement.
Hope this helps

I have solved this problem.
Go to Query panel properties inspector and set Display mode = simple
and drag an af- command button outside of the query panel.
<af:commandButton text="Search" id="cb6" actionListener="#{bindings.Execute.execute}"/>

Only one Apply button for Dashboard Prompt in obiee

Hi experts,
We have a need wer we need to place prompts at specified places like one at right top then next 3 one below other. But only one Apply button.
Please let me know how to customize OBIEE 11.1.1.5 to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You are using OBIEE 11g ,so constrain the second report should be on the first prompt.I mean,In the second prompt properties we have an option like "based on the other prompt";where you need to give the first prompt column name.like wise third prompt also.
Then you will get only one apply button for 3 prompts.
mar if helpful/correct..
thanks,

Problem with combo boxes and the reset button in certain situations

Hi Everyone,
i have a problem to make the reset-button function properly in an what-if analysis dashboard.
The dashboard uses two combo boxes that are not visible at the same time. In my application the second combo box only appears when a dedicated menu (label based menu button) has been activated.
So i have combo box 1 when menu A is active an dand combo box 2 when menu 2 is active.
After starting the dashboard initial values are fine. If you then directly change to menu 2 (seeing combo box 2 with
the correct default value) and press the reset button, the dashboard returns to the initial view, showing
the menu 1 with the correct default value. If you now switch back to menu 2, you will see, that the combo box 2
is empty (i.e. nothing selected).
I also tracked the destination cells for the combo box value results as well as the source cells for the "selected item" and the
destination cells for the "Insert Selected Item". All this values seem to be correct. Therefore i assume that
this is an issue of event handling. Maybe the combo box 2 does not refresh its selected value because it is already
invisible when the values are restored.
This case can easily be simulated by placing two combo boxes and a push button (that changes the visibility of
the combo boxes) and the reset button on the canvas.
Maybe someone can help. I am able to provide a test xlf, if neccessary.
Thanks,
Oliver
P.S. I am using Xcelsius SP4 (Version 5.4.0.0)

Hello Debjit_Singha_86,
thank you for your support. At the moment i have the following setting:
label based menu
- General: Insertion Type "value" from a list of ID's for the menu-items to a dedicated cell (current menu ID, say tab1!$A$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) fixted to item 1
hidden combo box
- General: Insertion Type "position" to a dedicated cell with the current choice (say tab1!$B$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) to the same cell (tab1!$B$1)
Can you give me a hint on how to connect the two components according to your solution, so that the label based menu sets the default for the hidden combox box only in case, that the reset button is pressed?
Thanks,
Oliver

How to reset dashboard prompt value to default by using of a radio button

Hi All,
I have a raido button to switch between 'quick search' and 'advanced search', 'quick search' is variable prompt, and its default value is 'OBIEE', when I switch to 'advanced search', I need to reset 'quick search' variable prompt to default value which is 'OBIEE'. and when I switch to 'quick search', I need to reset 'advanced search' selections to default value as well.
Any help? much appreciated.

I agree with David_T.
The best way is to use date column and calculations over it.
Another way is to use for conversion months to date a code like that:
1. It's a code for month-2, i.e. for JAN we get NOV
MONTHNAME(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -2, CAST('01.' || CASE WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'JAN' THEN '01' ELSE WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'FEB' THEN '02' ... WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'DEC' THEN '12' END || "Time"."Year" AS DATE))) 2. It's a code for month-1, i.e. for JAN we get DEC
MONTHNAME(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -1, CAST('01.' || CASE WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'JAN' THEN '01' ELSE WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'FEB' THEN '02' ... WHEN "Time"."Month" = 'DEC' THEN '12' END || "Time"."Year" AS DATE))) Then I advise to create a report with one column "Time"."Month" and filters - "Time"."Month" is promted OR "Time"."Month" = <formula from 1.> OR "Time"."Month" = <formula from 2.> When this report gets a "Time"."Month" equal 'JAN' then it returns 'NOV', 'DEC' and 'JAN'.
In you report on dashboard you get previous report as a condition report for column "Time"."Month"
It has to work.

OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompt Reset Button Functionality

Dear Experts,
Can anyone explain what is the exact functionality of 'Reset' Button in any OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompt.
If anyone found any documentation related to it... please let me know.
thanks,
Varun

Hi Varun,
This is the functionality of Reset button,
Reset will go back to last applied values. It does not clear values. Currently the Reset button works in the following ways:
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) reset 4) it should go back to blank.
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) apply 4) reset. 5) it should NOT to back to blank. actually it does not change anything.
if 1) the prompt is blank 2) select some value, 3) apply 4) change any values 5) reset. 6) it should undo any changes in step 4.
Rgds,
Dpka

Resetting Selection from a Multi-Select Dashboard Prompt in OBIEE 11g

Hi all,
I have a dashboard prompt, containing 3 columns which all are set to allow multi selection and default value is all values.
In 10g, after choosing some values in one of the prompt and clicking Go button, I can manually remove all my selection to reset it back to the default value (which is all values).
In 11g, however, I am not able to find how to do it. The reset button doesn't reset back to the default value (which is all values). So what I have to do is to use the "Clear All Customization", which will clear all my selection for all the prompts.
Any suggestion on how to do this? Thanks in advance!

Hi Deepak, actually I don't need any script to do that in 10g.
It's a built in feature in 10g. If you remember, for multiselect prompt in 10, we will click the "..." button to show the box for value selection. Then we can move values from left box to the right to include them, or vice versa to not include them. So by moving the values from right box to the left, I essentially revert to default value which mean all values will be shown.
In 11g, this box is not shown anymore, instead we are checking the values one by one from a drop down list.
Any suggestion? Thanks.

Is it possible to hide or at least change the position of the Reset button in registration template?

Hi,
in the registration template there are always the Submit and Reset buttons.
2 questions regarding the Reset button:
from a usability stand point: what's the reason of putting the Reset button equally weighted (from a visual standpoint) next to Submit?
wouldn't it be better to have placed on the left?
(or even hide it?)
Thoughts?
Thanks.

Hi,
It is not recommended to modify this page because it is used farm widely.
What’s more, it will be overwritten once there is upgrade happens.
A workaround is that you can create a custom spcf.aspx page with the layout templates you want.
http://doitwithsharepoint.blogspot.com/2011/08/create-web-part-pages-with-custom.html
http://sandeeppawar.blogspot.com/2012/06/create-custom-web-part-page-template.html
If you want to hide a layout template by modifying the
spcf.aspx page, it locates at
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS
You can edit this page and remove some <option> tags in the <select> tag, then the removed options will not display on the page.

OBIEE 11g - Dashboard Prompts - Radio Buttons

I have a report where I need to run 3 different ways based on the same filter with different values. Each way has multiple values. I was hoping to create a Dashboard prompt as a radion button to allow the user to select which variation of the report to run. I would like the radio button to pass the multiple values to the filter based on the user's selection. Does anybody know if this is possible? If not, is there another reccommended way. I would prefer not to save three versions of the same report with the only difference being a filter. Also, I would prefer for the users not to have to select multiple values each time they run report depending on the version they want to run.
Thanks,
William

You create the dummy report with appropriate number of columns for filtering using combine request. Each request in this complex report will correspond a choosing in a radio button prompt. In a main report for every filtering column you need to use option 'results are based on another request'.

OBIEE 11g Dashboard Prompts can be selected sequencely (unhide/hide)

Hi,
I want to show dashboard prompt sequencely. The user completed one of dashboard prompt the other prompts can be hide.
How can I make a relationship between dashboard prompts for selection the prompts one by one?
Do you have any suggestions?
thank your replies.

Thanks. I would need only ONE Clarification.
the Fact table has data at Date Level. For Example,
Date Revenue Stage
20120101 123.98 1a
20120302 178.965 1b
20120401 768.99 1c
The report should contain the following columns based on date range selection:- Start Date & End Date
Start_Date_Revenue End_Date_Revenue Start_Date_Stage End_Date_Stage
So, I have used FILTER(Revenue using Date = 'Presentation Variable for Start Date') & FILTER(Revenue using Date = 'Presentation Variable for End Date') for Revenue Calculation.
Similarly, is there any way to retrieve the stage columns data for each date and show it in report?
Note:_ I have tried the filter function for Dimension Column to bring Stage but it works only for Measure Column

OBIEE - How to selectively hide or disable columns on a dashboard prompt?

Hello! I need some help with OBIEE dashboard Prompts. Any help will be highly appreciated!
Question 1. How to selectively hide or disable columns on a dashboard prompt or the entire prompt? There seems to be no "hide" or "dsable" options on
prompts.
Question 2. How to synchronize 2 different prompts on the same dashboard?
The application is this: There are total of 2 tabs on a dashboard ("tab_1" and "tab_2"). Each tab uses different prompts ("pr_1" and "pr_2"), having just one first drop down column in common ("Product_id").
The desired functionality is this: user selects "Product_id" on the first tab's prompt, which filters its reports (on "Go") and also propagates to the second tab. When user clicks on the second tab, the reports there are already filtered (or begin filtering) by "product_id", selected on the first tab.
Question 3. How to prevent the reports from retrieving when switching to a different tab on a dshboard? Specifying dummy default values in the prompt does
not seem to preven reports from retrieving, which still takes time.
Thank you very much!
Roger

Regarding Question 2:
What you need to have is a Dashboard scope dashboard prompt for Product_ID (i.e., Don't use the column prompt from the prompt tab within the Request.)
1) Create the dashboard prompt, put it on tab1 and save the prompt to a presentation variable, say prmtProdID. Set the scope to "dashboard." (This is the default, by the way.) If you create a dashboard prompt and set the scope to "dashboard," then the prompt values selected will hold true across dashboard pages.
2) On tab2, go to your report and in Criteria mode, apply a filter to the Product_ID column making it equal to the PV. (Click the filter icon, Add>Variable>Presentation Variable and type prmtProdID. Save.)
When the user selects a Product_ID on tab1 of your dashboard and hits "Go," not only will it filter your report on tab1, when you go to tab2 the report here will be filtered with the same value selected in the prompt on tab2.
Regarding Question 3:
If you implement 2, you cannot implement 3. You can't have it both ways. Not for the same scenario. But if you want to know how to do it in general, read this:

How do you hide the Page Options button on dashboards in 11g?

Hello,
I would like to hide the "Page Options" button on a dashboard in 11g. I found some examples on how to do it in 10g, and they all talk about editing a file called dashboardtemplates.xml. I can't find this file on my 11g BI server, so I'm assuming the file was part of 10g but not 11g. Has anyone figured out how to hide the "Page Options" button on a dashboard in 11g?
thanks,
Scott

Hi Satya,
thanks for your reply, but I have a feeling that your solution is for obiee 10g and not for obiee 11g. We are using 11g, and when running Analytics (Answers), I don't see a "Settings" option, but I seem to recall that in 10g there is a "Settings" button/link. Also, I don't understand how your solution answers my question. You describe how to grant "everyone" read permissions on dashboards, but I want to know how to hide the "Page Options" button on dashboards.
Sincerely,
Scott
