Hide the Narrative View in 11g

Hi,
I have a requriment where users want to hide the filter view on the report and should be able to see only when they download or print the report.I don't find option to hide on the Default Filter View (i.e. in CSS properties DISPLAY:NONE).Instead I am trying if it is possible in Narrative View to call the Column @1 and hide it in report and show only when they download the report.
Any ideas?Really appreciate your help
Thanks

I got it to hide the narrative text and display only when downloaded.
div style=display:none@1/div. But can we do it on Filter View?

Hide the table view in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
The requirement is to hide the table view and display only the export link on the Dashboard. This could be achieved in 10g by inserting display:none CSS style in each column property. Tried the same in 11.1.1.3, the data is hidden but it still shows empty cells on the screen. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Swati

Hi All,
I have got the following code. It works fine ane directly opens a excel with the data. But it does not pass the prompted value. How do i pass the value so that the exxcel contains filtered data?
<>div class="XUIPromptEntry minibuttonOn" ALIGN="left"> <> a href="saw.dll?Go&Path=%2Fshared%2FData Dump&Options=d&Action=download&Extension=.xls" >Download<>/a>"

Prompts are not working when we call another report from the narrative view

Hi,
In my dashboard i need a table view report which should have scrolling option only for that section.
For this i added a html tag <iframe ........scrolling="yes"> in the narrative view and i added that narrative view in the report.
Now,it works fine in the dashboard.
But when i apply prompts in the dashboard the values are not filtering even though i added the "is prompted" filter condition in the criteria of both narrative view section and the called function.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks,
chinna.

Hi,
since you have created an iframe dashboard prompt wont work on that report.Same is the case if you put the report in Embeded content.
One possible workaround is to creaate a dummy report having columns same as that of dashboard prompt.Put all the columns is prmompted in this report
(No need to create dummy report if you already have those columns in some other report,You can use that report also)
Then go to your Iframe report and use "filter based on other request".In this way dashboard prompt will filter dummy report and based on dummy report values your iframe report will also filter.
Thanks

Hi Sathyan,
Set a presentation variable for that prompt.
and in request, go to the column formula,
CASE WHEN '@{pv_var}' IS NULL THEN 'ALL CHOICES' ELSE col_name END

Hide the design view for the report

Dear All,
I would like to block or hide the design view for the Crystal report.
Please let me know.
Thanks,

Hi Raja,
It is not possible to hide the design tab in Crystal Reports. However, in Crystal Reports 2008, there is the ability to password protect a file.

I think it's a problem with your CDATA section. Take that bit out and test again to prove whether it's the cause.

Data in a narrative view.

Sorry if this is simple. Just want to display the multiple values from a report prompt, not dashboard prompt, in the report. My effort has taken me to the narrative view and am using @12 to display the values in the column which has been filtered. But it is listing the values many times for each row. Can I use the narrative to display only distinct @12s or is there a better way to get the prompt values into the report. Thanks

You can do this with pivot table, it is not possible with Narrative.
1. Create pivot view for same report
2. exclude all the columns other than the column you want to show
3. Put the column in measures
4. duplicate the column, drag the duplicate column in to columns and hide
5. drag measure labels into Rows
6. apply aggregation to First on column in measures.
it works, I will blog it shortly with screen shots soon.

Formula in a narrative view

Hi Gurus,
Can you please help me with narrative views in OBIEE (11.1.1.5)?
I have a table that lists customer sales., e.g.
Customer Sales($mn) Rank
Cust1 800 1
Cust2 450 2
Cust3 350 3
Cust4 300 4
Cust5 40 5
Cust6 30 6
Cust7 20 7
Cust8 10 8
Total 2000
The requirement is to build a narrative view that uses different columns and totals. In this case, the narrative view should say:
Top *3* customers provide *80%* of the revenue.
(n = 3)
(80% = sum(sales) where rank in top n / total sales) = (800+450+350)/2000*100
I can't find a way to incorporate formulas. I can call the sales column (@2) but not able to put the calculation in the narrative view. Has anyone done such a thing before or knows how to do it?
Thank you!!

Thank you, HM... that worked great!!
I have another quick follow up - is there a way to refer to individual values in the result set in a narrative? For example, based on the same table:
Customer $mn Rank
Cust1 800 1
Cust2 450 2
Cust3 350 3
Cust4 300 4
Cust5 40 5
Cust6 30 6
Cust7 20 7
Cust8 10 8
Total 2000
I want to create another narrative that is the ratio of sales of the first and third ranked customer; i.e., the narrative I am trying to build is:
No. 3 has to increase sales by *2.28* times to equal No. 1.
(2.28 = 800/350)
Is that possible, given that my table is sorted by rank?

Script result not showing up in narrative view

I'm making a org chart as a narrative view.
If I do not tick "Contains HTML Markup" the result of the script is displayed. If I cut-n-past that content into a HTML file it display the result I'm looking for. However if I tick "Contains HTML Markup" the narrative view displays as empty.I have Attached two screenshots displaying this.
Any ideas what I'm not doing right? Have I forgotten some config to enable scripts in narrative view?
this is the script I'm using
Prefix:
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://www.google.com/jsapi'></script>
    <script type='text/javascript'>
if(document.URL.indexOf("saw.dll?Answers") == -1) {
      google.load('visualization', '1', {packages:['orgchart']});
      google.setOnLoadCallback(drawOrgChart);
      function drawOrgChart() {
if(document.URL.indexOf("saw.dll?Answers") == -1) {
      var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
        data.addColumn('string', 'Name');
        data.addColumn('string', 'Manager');
        data.addColumn('string', 'ToolTip');
        var myOrgArray=[];
        var tempStr = "";
Narrative:
myOrgArray.push(["@1","@3","@2"]);
Postfix
     data.addRows(myOrgArray);
        var chart = new google.visualization.OrgChart(document.getElementById('div_orgchart'));
        chart.draw(data, {allowHtml:true});
    </script>
    <div id='div_orgchart'></div>

Yes, sorry, client is obviously sufficient as well.
Just tried your code and same behaviour here and it doesn't do squat either. Can't deep-dive into that code right now but it's definitely code-related issue rather than a browser one for example.
Thought about trying d3js? Would be easier to reproduce for me as I use that more often than Google's data-munching pipe that pushes all your data through Google Analytics
Edit: Clicked too quickly. Wanted to point you to the SampleApp dashboard page which hosts the example I meant: http://slc02oka.oracle.com:7780/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=%2Fshared%2F02.%20Visualizations%2F_portal%2F2.32…

Edit 2: Jesus I really should stop clicking "Save Reply" just to not lose it. Simply show your analysis on a dashboard and you're fine. It'll work.

Narrative View Issues

Hi All,
I have designed an Answer report (compound layout - Table view and Narraive View) which uses custom javascript to generate a dynamic flowchart using VML(Vector Markup Language). It works fine but only thing is my flowchart goes outside the Narrative View box. How can i control it ? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

What do you mean by "goes out of the Narrative View box"?

Narrative view current year

Hi..
How could I view the current year by default in narrative view. I have used the following code
Year @{pvYear}*{year(current_year)*
Here pvYear is my presentation variable. At first time it shows Year year(current_year) in my report. When I use the prompt its shows my selected year.
Right now I have hard coded as
Year @{pvYear}{2009}
Thanks
Mohan

These are the step you have to follow
create one dummy column in the report and write the following formula
*case when @{year}=null then year(current_date) else @{year} end* and refer that column in the narrative view
and in the dashboar prompt defualt to drop down select repository variable and give the current year repository variable there
or choose SQL results and write the following formula
* SELECT case when 1=0 then "- Actual Start Date"."Start Year" else Year(current_date) end FROM Activities*
hope it helps you
Regards

Huh? What are you asking?

Narrative view, how do I don't show parameters that are emtpy?

Hi
I'm going to create a Narrative view that shows what the users has selected in about 10 dashboards prompts. I'm typing things like ... Period: @{p_date_from} ... and so on.
But what if the user didn't choose any particular prompt of the 10 that he has available? The I only want to show in the narrative view the one he has chosen.
How do I do that?
Thanks

Ooh I forgott to say ... I'm not allowed to use javascipts ... funny ey?

Configuration of Dirll Down wiht Narrative View

Hi all,
We have a requirement to provide drill down option on the narrative view. Here is the brief description about the layout of the reports.
1. Dashboard contains more than one tab
2. On the first tab, there is a narrative view
3. Narrative view should support drill down, which should take the control to one of the other tabs in the dashboard.
I have looked at GoNav() java script function, did not had much luck with it.
If there is a way to configure this, please let me know.
Any documentation around usage of GoNav() to achieve this should be appreciated.
Thanks,
Phani
