How to display presentation variable in a column

Hi all....I have to display presentation variable in a column...
I tried placing @{variable_name} in column formula..
But it is displaying a value 0 ..where the variable carries a date value.
Any suggestions?

Take a look at this blog: http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/presentation_variable
Try it out by providing a default format.

Presentation variable in iframe/narrative view/Go URL

I am able to see the peresentaion variable declared in Dashboard Prompt in narrative view.
But when I put in iframe with narrative in Go URL then i am not able to filter the report based on presentation variable Values..." The page throws error
'saw.aViewsToRefersh.all' is null or not an object.'

Do you get that error if you remove the presentation
variable column (@n). Does the a simple iframe work.
Also, how are you referring the presentation variable
in the iframe. I hope you are referring via a dummy
column.
Thanks,

Yes the simple iframe work well in the browser. As I am trying to run report based on the dashboard prompt. I have declared presentation variable in Dashboard prompt and referring the presentation variable in the iframe via a dummy column. when i click on 'Go' of dashboard prompt after selecting the value in dropdown list, I see the error on left bottom most of Internet Explorer Showing " Done" is null or not any object. also i see javascript:void(null). I assume that the variable value is not getting passed to parameters i have given in Go URL

How to create Presentation variable for columns and to use it in Narrative?

Hi All,
Anybody know how to create presentation variable for a column (i.e., i need to create it in edit formula section itself). And then, I should use it in Narrative section to display that column value. Is it possible? Or do i need to use any other variable for this requirement? If so please let me know, how to create it? This is very urgent requirement.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Satya,
I just want to create a table that should horizontally display the values like below:
     SUID Tag # :123456               Year Mfg: 2007
     Description: computer corporation FA ID#: 4576
     Model Number: 4569 hESC: #ert
     Serial Number: 78945 Flags: c
Department: Hematology
User: thenmozhi
Database: OLAP
I think we can create this type of report using either Narrative or Static Text. But I am not sure whether it is possible or not? And also another thing is that sectioning is applied for SUID Tag # column. So, depending on the dashboard prompt if the SUID Tag # retrieves two or more values.
Then the first value for example 123456     and the values for the other columns related to this SUID Tag # value should display in the first page (i.e., page 1). And if the next value of the SUID Tag # for example say 678901 then the values should move to second page that is like this:
     SUID Tag # :678901               Year Mfg: 2008
     Description: Computer Manufacturing FA ID#: 4577
     Model Number: 4570 hESC: #eth
     Serial Number: 78946 Flags: G

HOW TO DISPLAY A VARIABLE

hi friends,
I have a variable in wk_matnr value is 'MATERIAL123'.
How to display this variable like Material No :-MATERIAL123
How to code for this in BSP.
Moosa

Hi,
To display any variable in BSP.
you need to do this:
<%= varibale name %>
For your variable,
<%= wk_matnr %>
OR
<htmlb:label for = "wkm"
text = "Material No" />
<htmlb:text id = "wkm"
text = "<%= wk_matnr %>" />
Hope this is helpful.

Displaying a presentation variable in a title view

Hello,
I've created a title view with the title:
Category Sales Last 12 Months for @{CountryRegion}
I also have a dashboard prompt that sets the presentation variable. However, the first time you run the dashboard page the title displays:
Category Sales Last 12 Months for @{CountryRegion}
instead of:
Category Sales Last 12 Months for
yet when the prompt is set within the dashboard to a value (e.g. Europe), the title correctly shows:
Category Sales Last 12 Months for Europe
I thought the title was supposed to not display the presentation variable definition at all if it is not set.
Please can someone provide some pointers on how to get the title to correctly show the value of the presentation variable in the title whether the value is set or not.
Cheers,
John

You can use the Replace function mentioned above only in column formula. If you do not want to use column formula to display this value, then you can opt for Javascript replace function. To implement it, you need to replace your presentation variable in text object with below code and ensure to check Contains HTML markup checbox.
<div id=custDiv>@{WeekBetween}{Default Value}</div>
<script>
var i = document.getElementById('custDiv').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('custDiv').innerHTML= i.replace(","," - ");
</script>
Let me know if this works for you.

How to pass Presentation Variable Value from Main Report to Detail Report

Hello,
I've 2 reports that is attached to each other. In my main report i've several report prompts and i am using i"s prompted" on my detail report to attach them.
But 2 of my report prompts are presentation variables(Names : FIRST, SECOND). Both are in date format. I've a filter in my main report like;
"ASSIGNMENTS_F"."EFFECTIVE_START_DATE" BETWEEN @{FIRST} AND {SECOND}
It works fine when i run the main report. But when i click on the numbers, i see that i can not filter my detail report with the chosen values for 2 presentation variables. It just shows all the dates.
I've tried adding both presentation variables in both reports as columns and adding 'is prompted' filter to them. But did not work either.
I just cant pass the written values for presentation variable prompts to detail report..
Please help :)

Hi,
What you can try is refer the filte condition in the main report to the detailed report with the option--> Filter based on another request.
Or you try creating another intermediate report which will refer the main report filters and pass the filters to the detailed report.
Hope this helps.

How to pass presentation variable with enclosing single quotes

HI All,
As all of you know in 11g, Presentation variable can hold more than one value.So we can pass multiple values to the report through presentation variable.
If we select x,y,z values from prompt drop down,then those values will be stored like x,y,z in the presentation variable.
but I would like to store these values with enclosing single quotes like 'x,y,z'
The reason is I need to pass this variable value as input to BI Publisher sql dataset query where clause.
Please share your Ideas.
Thanks,
Aravind

How to display the variables in the specified manner?

We need to display some variables in an array in the horizontal order with backslash between the variables using a For loop in XML
For Example
Variable 1 / Variable 2 / Variable 3
Could someone provide valuable suggestions on the same.
Regards,
Sudeep.

Not sure if I understood the question, do you mean you want to display variables as output, where in the logic runs in a loop while reading the XML data and creates an array of data separated by backslash? You can always concatenate the variables similar to string concatenation.

Hi,
Like this you can pass presentation variables to the columns using Go URL
'<a href=saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/Test/_portal/Test%20KPIs&Page=Page1&Action=Navigate&col1="Dim%20Country"."Country%20Name"&val1='||'@{PV_Contry'||'>'||'Country'||'<\a>'
Please use backslash in anchor tag end. Since here it is not accepting I am using forward slash.

Problem in displaying multiple column values using Narrative View

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in I need to display column 1 of an Answers report as a header and all values of column 2 below tht.
There are multiple values from column 2 for every value in column 1
Example:
Group:
Grp (This is column 1)
Activity:
Act1
Act2
Act3 (These are values from column 2)
I have used narrative view for this which looks like:
Group: @1
Activity:@2[br/]
But this displays the value of column1 along with every value of column 2. I want column 1 value to be displayed only once.
Thanks in advance
