How to create a trailing 6 months graph in OBIEE dashboard?

Hi,
I'm new to oracle and currently learning new OBIEE application where I'm task with creating a graph trailing 6 months.  I did some research and found a solution in this forum but given that my background is not IT so those codes to me is like another language.  Basically I need to create a graph where users would select a prompt month like June-14, the graph would should show data for the prior month from May backward to Jan.  In my report, I would have 4 column like fiscal year, month, sales, and supplier.
I know how to create the report to pull the data but I'm struggling with where/how to set up filter and prompt and where to apply the appropriate SQL query.  Please help!  Step by Step instruction would be very helpful.
Thanks you so much in advance.

Hi,
That filter will not help you ...
You said : users would select a prompt month like June-14
The previous formula work on the current real date, not on a prompt (and why to cast CURRENT_DATE as date? It's a date! And again: DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_MONTH * (-1) + 1 isn't it easier to just write 1 - DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_MONTH) ? ...).
Coming back to your question .... by the way ...
I'm new to oracle and currently learning new OBIEE application and my background is not IT so those codes to me is like another language
I would highly suggest you follow a proper training and/or a good book (please avoid the guy advertising his DVD OBIEE training for few $$) at least you start with good basis on OBIEE and BI / data analysis and reporting in general.
Let's start by your prompt: when you say a month like June-14, do you mean that you really have a month column in your subject area with values like June-14? Do you also have a proper date next to it or anything more "numeric" ? Because otherwise you will need to translate textual months names into real date to be able to easily calculate the previous X months.

  • How to create a custom Config Mgr 2012 R2 SCOM Dashboard

    This blog has some information:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2012/12/11/monitoring-configmgr-2012-with-opsmgr.aspx
    However its more of an overview rather than how you construct it.
    I would appreciate anyone willing to post some information on how they have setup their own and what they are monitoring.
    We have installed the Config Manager management pack with default tuning. At the moment, I have something like this setup, however its not showing any data yet as the Ops Mgr clients are still collecting data.

  • How to create a second OracleBIApplication in WebLogic for OBIEE 11g?

    I want to create a second OracleBIApplication in WebLogic for OBIEE 11g. The default one is called "coreapplication". I can create a new one but it doesn't show up in Enterprise Manager. Anyone can help?

    I have been trying to create a second OracleBIApplicatino in WebLogic for OBIEE 11g without success. I don't want to end up installing it twice as it is going to consume a lot of resources and also because I want to have a single WebLogic Domain. Has anyone faced the same situation?
    What about deploying the "analytics" web application as a new web application with a different context-root (e.g. analytics_test)? I am also trying but I can't make it work. Anyone available to help?

  • How to create own attributes in the graph.xml of 10g Reports

    Hi,
    Iam using 10g reports. Iam recreating the graphs in 10g which were created in Graphics builder earlier. While doing that I found lot of features are missing in 10g reports charts wizard. It has only limited number of Graph types when compared to the Graphics builder. Like there is no Curve graph in 10g. The available are Line, Bar and Area. So how can I draw a curve instead of line? 10g Legend looks very ugly. There is lot of space between the values. Is there anyway that I can add my own attributes in the graph.xml and register in the reports?
    Please advise.
    Thanks.
    Ram Dontineni.

    Hi Ram,
    how can I draw a curve instead of line?I have posted a Q in BI Beans Forum for you, we should get an answer there:
    Curved Line Graph?
    10g reports charts wizard. It has only limited number of Graph types when compared to the Graphics builderThat may not be exactly true.
    10g Graph Wizard supports 11 major graph types, and 47 sub-types
    While 6i Graphics Builder supported 5 major graph types and 35 graph sub-types
    There are differences between 6i Graphics and 10g Graph Wizard, so certain things you might have been able to do in 6i may not be entirely possible in 10g. However, the main advantages of the 10g Graph option are - it internally uses BI Beans, which is used in ALL Oracle poducts like JDeveloper, Discoverer, Oracle Apps etc. So the customer gets a consistent look-and-feel. And that it is possible to define your Graph in XML format (and through Java API in JDeveloper).
    We have published a list of FAQ's on OTN where you should get answers to at least some of your Q's:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/index.html (click on Graphing FAQ)
    Is there anyway that I can add my own attributes in the graph.xml and register in the reports?This will not be possible, however, you should take a look at the complete list of elements and their attributes that is exposed in Graph.dtd - you can then choose the attributes you want, and add them to your Report's Graph.xml:

  • How to create a tendency in a graph

    Hi
    I'm new to Numbers which gives me some problems in my math and physics classes. When I make a graph with some numbers I have to do a tendency (the best line through the points - is it called that ?). But sometimes we have to force the line through the beginning point of the graph (0;0).
    how do i do that ?

  • How to create a amplitude against freq graph?

    If you are plotting an array of amplitudes sampled at various
    frequencies to a waveform graph, you are pretty close. The scale will
    default to being labeled by index -- first amplitude plotted against
    zero, second against one, etc. You can programmatically or
    interactively add a linear transform from index to displayed number. In
    otherwords, you define an M and B to define what zero maps to, what one
    maps to, etc. And you can also use t
    he labeling tool to change the
    scale label to read frequency or whatever you like.
    If your frequencies aren't in a linear progression, or if you just think
    it is simpler, use an XY graph instead, and put the frequency with each
    amplitude in a cluster. Make an array of these XY paired clusters.
    Then change the scale label.

  • Possibility of creating combination chart Barchart/Line graph within OBIEE

    Hi
    Is it possible to create a combination chart within OBIEE as can be done in Excel by changing the chart type on one of the individual series - ie graph multiple series of data as a combination of Barchart & Line series?
    Any info appreciated
    Thanks & Regards
    K

    The charting can be as dynamic as you like if you willing to pre-configure the required options.
    Simply create as many charts as you want from one request, and use a view selector to allow the user to switch between them.
    You can use level based measures and any else you want as seperate columns (all in same request) then chart them accordingly.
    Hope this helps

  • Percentage stacked bar graph in BO dashboards?

    How to create a percentage stacked bar graph in BO dashboards? The graph should be compatible with Mobile/Ipad. I understand this is not available out of box. Looking for workaround solutions only

    Hi vijay,
    As sara said stacked column chart is supported for mobile view. you can validate it in your mobile compatibility property window.
    To turn the normal value into percentage, you can do that in DB level or if your using Bex Query you can calculate in query designer. If not you need to apply the formula in excel level.
    Take a look at my attachment, you will get a better idea. Revert for more clarification if required.
    Happy to help you.

  • Creating a trail of dots along a motion path

    One quick follow-up. This was easy with paint stroke tool as per the advice. One last step...the stroke 'write on' stops on frame 300 but the clip lasts until frame 400. Ihave th speed of write on set at natural. Currently the stroke disappears when the write on finishes. How do I get the final stroke outline to persist for another 100 frames? I thought there might be a 'hold last to end' as per Livetype font settings....but couldn't find it - or is using keyframes the answer? Thanks.

    How to create monthly table creation please?

    Hi Trevor,
    Thanks for your help.  We were able to create table and load data till Apr as attached.
    However the analytic user privilege has been modified on Apr due to server operation.
    Since then, there was a message saying there is no permission to create tables in the analytic log,
    analytic user privilege has been granted after checked this message, As I suspected, the issue occurred after modifying analytic user privilege.
    Currently, analytic users are granted with all privilege.
    Any idea please?
