How to apply drill on webi reports

Hi All,
I have a webi report with objects Country,State,City.If i enable drill option then it would drill down like this:
Country->State->City .ie., if i drill country i get state.If we drill state then we get city.(one level drilling)
But my requriement is that if i drill Country it should drill down to State and City at a time.ie., drill Country->State and City.(multi level drilling)
I know that drill will perform only one level at at time. But is there any workaround for this.
Thanks in Advance....

Hi,
If you set the preferences to prompt when drill requires extra information and it will display a prompt dialog of where to drill to.
You can also setup a custom hierarchy in the universe Country->City and you can use this in your report.
Hope this helps
Alan

  • How can we hyperlink a WEBI report to a .PDF or .DOC in any location?

    Hi All,
         I have a WEBI report which has a column called Country(Values US, UK). I have some .pdf files in my local machine and BOE server. Could anyone let me know how can I hyperlink the report to the .pdf in my local machine and in the server. There are two cases as below as questions to be answered.
    Case 1
    When I click on country column, a single .pdf file should open irrespective of the column values in my local machine/server
    Case 2
    When I click on country column, a .pdf file should open with respect to the column values in my local machine/server
    I would be grateful if it is answered asap.

  • Live Office does not retain the Custom Sorting applied in a Webi report

    Hi,
    We have a Webi report in which we applied "Custom Sorting" to sort the Business Names in the required order. However, when we import that to excel using live office, excel doesnt retain the same format and there are not much options that are available within xcelsius to do the sorting. I have gone through various posts here but none resolved this specific issue.
    Here is our environment:
    Xcelsius 4.5
    Live Office Frame work 11.5.5.525
    BOXI R2 SP1 and MHF1
    I tried using different options under "Report View formatting" within live office options but none seem to have made any difference. Unfortunately we can't make any changes to the universe in this case. I checked for few paid addon's but they seem to be for Xcelsius 2008. We have a release next week and would appreciate if any of you can guide me to solve this issue.
    Thanks
    Pavan

    hi pavan
    i can just tell you that i had no issues with custom column sorting in webi with Enterprise XI 3.0 and Xcelsius 2008.

  • How to use formula in WebI report

    hi guys
    i have done a webI report in which i have company code yearly sales and i want to see it quaterly.Please guide how to do this with formula.
    Thanks

    A lot of this depends on how your universe is set up.  The easiest way would be to have the universe updated to include "Automatic Date Hierarchy" for the sales date.  This would give you Year, Quarter, and Month breakdowns of the dates that you could then use to split up the data for your report.
    To do this in WebI, you would create a formula using the Quarter() function to get the quarter of the sales date field.

  • How to apply Structural Authorisations for Report

    Hi All,
    We are using structural authorisations in our project and it is working fine for all processes. But we are facing problem for reports.
    Kindly guide on How to apply structural authorisations to SAP Standard Reports and Custom reports.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant,
    Yeah LDB is a good way of implementing Structural auth. Apart from that you can assign the Authorization Group in the Z-report attribute. So users who are part of this group only can access this report. This also applies to the standard reports as they are already assgned to standard Authorization Groups.

  • How to Get List of Webi Reports in CMS which are scheduled?

    Dear Experts,
    I want to generate list of Web Intelligence Report which are scheduled.
    In addition to above, if I get destinations and in case BO Inbox of mail recipients, list of recipients we be an added advantage for me.
    is there any way, I can achieve this using SDK or sum of that matter?
    Any Clue / Suggestions will be a great help for me.
    Thanks you,
    Regards,
    Sachin Dalal

    You can use the following query:
    Select * from ci_infoobjects where si_name='<webi report name>' and si_instance=1
    This will return all scheduled instances in their default location for specified webi report.
    For each object you can retrieve:
    ((IProperties)((IProperties)oInfoObject.getSchedulingInfo().properties().getProperty("SI_DESTINATIONS").getValue()).getProperty("1").getValue()).getProperty("SI_PROGID).getValue().toString : returns managed for instances scheduled to enterprise user's inbox.
    ((IProperties)((IProperties)((IProperties)((IProperties)oInfoObject.getSchedulingInfo().properties().getProperty("SI_DESTINATIONS").getValue()).getProperty("1").getValue()).getProperty("SI_DESTSCHEDULEOPTIONS").getValue()).getProperty("SI_OUTPUT_FILES").getValue()).getProperty("1").getValue() -> returns the integer value of the SI_ID of the user where the report is scheduled in the user's inbox.
    Query for the instance in the query builder and you can see the structure for SI_DESTINATIONS property bag.
    Hope this help.

  • How to connect Already created WebI reports with Xcelsius Dashboards

    HI Experts,
    My requirement it to bring data from already in use WebI reports to a consolidated Dashboard. I am aware of connecting universe with Dashboard with the help of QaaWS.
    Is there is any other way that we can connect our dashboard?
    We are thinking to publish those dashboards on the SAP Enterprise BI Portal.
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Edited by: BIBO_Apprentice on Aug 13, 2011 7:40 AM

    Hi,
    One can connect WebI reports with Xcelsius dashboards in 3 ways:
    1. Using QaaWS : connects universe with Dashboard. Dashboard uses the WSDL link to get data that works on SOAP (that works on exchanging web structures).
    2. Using Live Office Connection: With the help of Live Office one can connect the WebI reports directly. One can take advantage of the scheduled instances of the WebI reports. So it is good for time consuming reports.
    3. Using BI Web Services: Here custom web services are created of intended report instances. Publication is done from CMS side.
    after that WSDL is used as any other web services.
    Get back if you need any further clarification.

    i  am new in ssrs and want to know how can i apply password to reports while opening in report server, or how can i create a user with username,password . i have seen role , item based security of microsoft but not able to understand how can i apply
    it.

  • How to create feilds in Webi reports with where condition

    I need to create a feild display name by keeping the constraint condition
    o     Display value – dbo.Personnel.Fullname   METRICPERSONNEL
    o     Joining tables – dbo.MetricRequestTeam.MetricRequestKey, dbo.MetricRequest.MetricRequestKey
    o     Constraint – dbo.MetricRequestTeam.MetricRoleTypeKey = ‘2’
    How we can do this in webi level.
    Thanks

    Hi Sasi,
    I am taking assumption that you have already merged both the table at report level on common column.
    So for Analyst column in report you want to display :
    IF  dbo.MetricRequestTeam.MetricRoleTypeKey = ‘2’ THEN "Lead"
    Else IF dbo.MetricRequestTeam.MetricRoleTypeKey = ‘4’  THEN "Analyst"
    Am i Right??
    For this just create a variable  ( I think here it will be a Dimension) with following formula:
    =If([Column_Name] =2) then "Lead"
    Else (IF([Column_Name] =4 then "Analyst" else "None")))
    Drag this variable to analyst column it will give you desired values.
    Points to remember:
    If the data type of column "dbo.MetricRequestTeam.MetricRoleTypeKey" is string then put "2" or "4" in formula else it will give you #syntax error.
    Alternatively you can also give following formula:
    =If([Column_Name] InList ("2") ; "Lead";
    (IF([Column_Name] InList("4") ; "Analyst" ; "None")))
    Hope it helps!

  • How to Use Backslah() in webi report formula

    Hi
    My client is using web intelligence XI 3.1 SP2. I have a formula in a report as:
    =Sum(If([Level 08 Node] InList ("Correlation & Index";"EM\FX Option JV";"Short Dated Exotic Options";"Long Dated Options";"Short Dated Vanilla Options";"Options");[SR MTD];0))
    Everyime I save the the formula I am loosing the "\" in the "EM\FX Option JV", so the formula becomes:
    =Sum(If([Level 08 Node] InList ("Correlation & Index";"EMFX Option JV";"Short Dated Exotic Options";"Long Dated Options";"Short Dated Vanilla Options";"Options");[SR MTD];0))
    how can I use the backslash in the above formula , I appreciate that it is a special character.
    Many Thanks

    Thanks Amit,
    that solved the problem. I also did the following that worked but for simplicity and ease of reading I will use the double backslah approach.
    =Sum(If([Level 08 Node] InList ("Correlation & Index";"Short Dated Exotic Options";"Long Dated Options";"Short Dated Vanilla Options";"Options") Or ([Level 08 Node]="EM"Char(92)"FX Options JV") ;[CY SR YTD];0))
    thanks
