How to drill across sections in Dashboards

I hav got this through this site.
(if i click on a department name in department section in dashboard, the corresponding employees details should be shown in the adjacent column/section without rendering to a new page)
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/12/26/oracle-bi-ee-101332-drills-across-sections-in-a-dashboard/
i hav got the total thing done.
i'm doing this for an department table on department name.
for which when i drill on department name, corresponding employees list should be shown.
my problem is
1. if the dept name contains a spaces like 'Human Resources', then the URL is taking only Human and its ignoring the rest.(if it doesn't contain spaces, its showing correctly.!)
the URL looks like this
http://l3f0372:9704/analytics/saw.dll?GO&path=/shared/New/3.Emp&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=Departments.%22Department%20Name%22&P3=Human
2. the drill down can be implemented on varchar datatypes only.
but not on number types like dept_id. Is there any way to that?

Thank you Naresh for responding to my problem..
But, if we use Navigate, the drilling will be to a new page.
but the client requirement is like this.
intially there are two sections, one shows dept details and other shows emp details(of all depts)
when we click on a particular dept name, the emp details of that department only should be shown and in the same section only(i.e., without navigating to a diff page).
the procedure i'd got from the website mentioned in the earlier post worked fine with the department name containing no spaces.
but when there is a space in the department name(ex.Human Resources),, the URL is taking till Human only(due to anchor tag in column properties on dept name).here the anchor tag is used to call emp details section and pass the respective dept name called.But when a space occurs in URL, that anchor tag is taking till a space.
(ex.: http://l3f0372:9704/analytics/saw.dll?GO&path=/shared/New/3.Emp&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=Departments.%22Department%20Name%22&P3=Human )
so, how to pass a value with space using anchor tag dynamically..?
Thanks in advance..:)

  • How to suppress the drill across navigation in the nav block

    Hi All,
    In BW 3.5 in the web template I have a generic navigation block each characteristic in the nav block as a Drill down and a drill across navigation icon. In my web template I do not want the drill across for all characteristics I want only drill down.
    So what I did was include the following code in the nav block HTML
    param name="MODIFY_CLASS" value="CL_RSMRM_MKTCAL_MT_FILTER"/>
    <param name="CLOSED" value="X"/>
    But this suppressed both drlll down and dril across how can I suppress only drill across in columns and retain the drill down by rows.
    Thanks
    Karen

    Thanks Francois.
    Can you explain where I can use the POST?
    Since I tried use POST in detail block in post-block/when-validate-record/post-insert.... but not success.
    Thank you.

  • Format Dimensions in Resulting Drill Across Spreadsheet, Linked Partition

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if / how I can format the order of the dimensions that appear in the Source of a linked partition, when drilling across from Target to Source in the essbase excel add-in? I am in version 9.3.1, using a linked partition going from aggregate storage to aggregate storage.
    An example: I have Cube "A" at the intersection where I can use my linked partition to drill across to Cube "B". When I do so, the drill works as expected. However I would like to specify an order for the dimensions of Cube "B" to show up in, in the new excel worksheet. Right now I can't determine the default order that is appearing, (it is not largest dense or largest sparse first). The order is consistently the same though, regardless of the format of the intersection of Cube A when I initiate the drill across.
    I want to specify an order mostly because I want to try to automatically drill to generation 2 on a dimension in Cube B that is not in Cube A. I haven't been able to do this with the Area and Mapping defintions in the partition yet. (Maybe that is my best bet) I'm hoping there is a config file or something that I can use to manipulate how the new worksheet appears.
    Can't find anything in the documentation yet.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Carmen

I just took a look at both the Java API code for the IEssLinkedPartition class and I didn't see any methods/properties that give you any information about the orientation of the members (or even any mention of the members at the datapoint).

(Maybe that is my best bet) I'm hoping there is a config file or something that I can use to manipulate how the new worksheet appears.The second problem you will have is automatically drilling to generation 2. The classic add-in gives you no notifications, or 'events', to tell you something has happened.
    Both of these issues are trivial to solve in our Dodeca product. Our 'intelligent navigation' feature allows you to navigate from a datapoint to a new view/report and will automatically package the members represented at the datapoint as a tokens that represent the point of view. The target view/report, which you can layout with the dimensionality located whereever you wish and can connect automatically to your 'linked partition' drill-through database, then places those tokens in the location you indicate when the view/report opens. As a bonus, you do not need to specify a linked partition to have this drill-through behavior. Finally, there is robust event support so you can have the zoom-in occur automatically. You can learn more about Dodeca at our website, www.appliedolap.com.

  • How to drill down and keep all my pivot table...

    Hello experts!
    I have a question about how to drill-down in pivot table. If I drill-down I can see the result in the same place...but it dissapear other bins or measures...
    Example:
    Pivot table:
    A
    B
    C
    If I click in A I can see:
    a1
    a2
    a3
    But I don't see B and C.
    I would like to see when I click on A:
    A
    ---a1
    ---a2
    ---a3
    B
    C
    In my example I have a lot of bins to do drill-down...so it doesn't work for me to create three pivot tables and to do a union...
    Is that possible? If you need more details you can post here...
    Thank you!

    Alex, this isn't another question. It looked like you were asking something different. That's why I said to start another thread. The bottom line is that OBIEE can't do what you are looking for.
    But I think what is more important is not necessarily how to do what the OP wants, but what is the best way (read: most efficient, simplest, viable) to achieve the goal.
    In this case, I think a better approach to your reporting is to use to Dashboard prompts. The first would be like Vehices (which has Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, etc. in the drop-down window) and the second, constrained on the first, called Models/Brands (which has values dependent on what is chosen in the first prompt). With "All Choices" checked off in the prompt design, you have all the combinations a user needs to see in the pivot table. If the user chooses "Cars" from the first prompt, and "All Choices" in the second, then he/she will get all the car models displayed in the pivot table. Or, the user could select one particular moded from the start.
    In fact, this is how many product web sites are set up. This gives the flexibility to the user and the report looks clean and efficient. You can have the drill down on the particular model (value interaction) if you wish to supply extra data on the particular model chosen.
    I think this is the "correct" answer, Alex, though not the answer to the question you posed. Good luck.

  • Drill Across Essbase/Multidimensional cubes with a conformed dimension

    Hi Guys,
    Does anyone have any ideas/pointers on how to implement drill across on Essbase cubes or Multidimensional sources in general.
    For Eg:
    Cube 1 with aggregate data at Country Level
    Cube 2 with detail data at City Level
    Geography is the conformed dimension here.
    I need to implement drill across from the Country level in the Geography Hierarchy to go to the City level, across cubes. Facing a problem desinging it in the BMM.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    thanks,
    jboy

    We're discussing this already in your other thread? Different drill paths for a common Essbase Dimension with varied depth

  • Do Not Expand on Drill Across/Down

    Hi All,
    I am having Two Restricted KeyFigures Called Short Term and Long Term. The Short term is restricted with Fiscal Month(Say  X) for a range of one year and the Long term is restricted with the same variable but Greater than Or Equal X. So the Long term contains lots of Data as the infocube has the future data also.
    Now the problem is when I do a Drill Across/Down on Fiscal Month the result exceeds the Microsoft Excel Limitations(Colunms 255).
    Is there any way that  Restricted KeyFigure ' Long term' should not expand when i do a drill across/down.that is how can i disable the drill across function on the Long Term Restricted key figure.
    Your ideas will be appriciated with points.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Try this:
    Take a Virtual hierarchy on Fiscal year/period characterstic (which you have taken in the free characterstic area). So it will avoid display of all Individual values at a time. User can drill down on the hierarchy , if he want to do it. That also, will alow to drill down for a specific year and not at a time all.

  • From Drill Down to Drill Across

    Hi Forum,
    I'm using drill down from parent to child of the account dimesion.
    I'd like also drill across dimensions.
    For example, I have a report by account and I'd like drill to flow dimension. Cause i don't want to see the flow dimension for all account. The user want to see the flow details when he means that is necessary see it (unpredictable).
    Is it possible? If yes how it works?
    Thanks
    Best regards
    Gianluca

    Hi,
    Im not too sure, when you say drill across dimensions....
    My suggestion accoridng to my undertanding is to maintain a property called flow against in acct dimension and populate it with a "Y"  for account ids for which you want to display the flow dimension.
    Use simple IF formula in your control sheet or anyother excel aoning with your  EVDRE sheet like below and apply the same inn your flow dimension expansion.
    If Flow_Property of Acct is Y
    then
    Flow_ALL  in Expansion .
    else
    flow_none.
    Also, If it is not based on accounts, and you wantto kae it dynamic, populate it with Flow_None always and give the user the option of selecting which accts he wants to select a flow id.
    this can be done with the help of excel macro and the same excel formula as above.
    hope this helps

  • Open report on clicking the section in dashboard in obiee 10g

    Hi,
    I have number of sections in dashboard and in each section I have a report. When we click on report link, the report will be open.
    Now we have a requirement such that, if we click on anywhere in the section (just not only on report) the report should be open.
    How to achieve this..???

    Thanks.You can't. That's the simple answer. The bigger question is why is it so hard for users to "aim for the link"? When you say you have one report in each section, why not put all the links in one section? You could make the home page a "table of contents" page and have the links lined up vertically, each in its own "Link or Image" object in the section?
    I would imagine that if all you have is one link in each section, that is a lot of real estate on your dashboard just to have the user click on a link to go someplace else. Putting all the links in one section may make it visually easier for end users to see what they want and just click on the applicable link.

  • Drilling across in Hyperion Financial Reporting

    Hello,
    We are migrating a few reports from BO to HFR. The BO reports have a functionality to drill across another dimension. Does anyone have an idea about how to implement the drill across functionality in HFR.
    Thanks,

    HFR supports two kinds of "drilling"
    Related content links allow you to link FR with other Hyperion products for more Ad hoc analysis.
    Cell document links allow you to link actual reports or documents with a particular HFR cell.

  • How the Drill down functionality works if the source is Bex Query

    Dear All,
    How the Drill down functionality works if the source is Bex Query through the query browser in Dashboard 4.1
    Please let me know process.
    Thanks
    Regards,
    Sai

    Hi sai,
    Drill down can be done by two ways.
    1. you need to bring all the data in one shot to the spreadsheet and then by using the components you can achieve it. Below given link explains in detailed about that.
    Filtering Through Combo Box
    2. you can use different set of query to pass the value from one set to another to fetch the data using the prompt. please check the below which explain them.
    Difference between "When value Becomes & When value Changes"

  • Drilling Across in Discoverer

    Discoverer 10.1.2.X
    We have datamarts which have uniformly conforming dimensions and the facts and dimensions are laid out in a star schema.
    Point of Sale(POS) is a separate fact table and Shipments is a separate fact table too. Stores belong to the customer dimension and Dates belong to the calendar dimension. Both POS and Shipments share the stores and calendar dimension. There is appropriate foreign key relation ship between the fact and dimension tables in the database too.
    POS
    \|/
    |
    Stores
    |
    /|\
    Shipments
    POS
    \|/
    |
    Calendar
    |
    /|\
    Shipments
    The problem:
    Now I would like to Drill across in Discoverer i.e. for a given store and date range I would like to get two measures from different facts -> POS and Shipments by day. When I execute the report from Discoverer, the query that is generated looks like the one pasted below and I don't think this is a proper query because cus_dimn_customer and day_dimn_cal_hdl do not have any relationship. The query also runs very long-
    SELECT fx100 AS e100048, fx101 AS e100135, SUM (fx107) AS e100620_sum,
    SUM (fx102) AS e100363_sum
    FROM (SELECT SUM (o100611.quantity) AS fx107, o100611.cus_key AS fx108,
    o100611.day_key AS fx109
    FROM ebiprod.bil_fact_billing_v o100611
    GROUP BY o100611.day_key, o100611.cus_key),
    (SELECT SUM (o100357.sale_qty) AS fx102, o100357.cus_key AS fx104,
    o100357.day_key AS fx106
    FROM ebiprod.pos_fact_retail_sales_v o100357
    GROUP BY o100357.day_key, o100357.cus_key),
    (SELECT o100019.chain_code AS fx100, o100107.cal_date AS fx101,

    Questions:
    1) Is this an example of Fantrap ? i.e. Discoverer detects a fantrap and creates the query accordingly to resolve the Fantrap.
    2) I don't think the outer join is needed and I do not understand why the conditions created in the report cannot be applied to every nested SQL. How do I change the way Discoverer generates queries ?
    3) If any one has experience in enabling Drilling across in Discoverer and how it is implemented ?
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks
    Manav

    The joins in the SQL are controlled by the joins made in the admin edition. A check box determines if it is outer joni, one to one, one to many. The outer join would not be present unless it was present in your Business area. Click the options tab in the join in Admin.
    As for a fan trap, I have always thought of it as a cyclical join. Discoverer can't determine which path to take to get the correct information. If you have the option turned on it will not allow you to build the workbook if a join such as this is determined.
    The query you attached appears to be a crosstab in-line view. Try the workbook in a page detail and see if the query time improves.
    One other method I have used is a hierarchy in a DW with multipath branches. This allows for drilling from summary into detail down a predetermined path. It has worked well for me but does take some effort in design to make sure the drill down is ALWAYS true, no exceptions.
    HTH.

    Apparently AA8 will work on Win7, though Adobe does not support it. They only support AA9 on Win7. The printer should be installed as part of the Acrobat installation. You do not add the printer in the sense that you suggest. Does Acrobat itself open? You probably need to do a repair to the Acrobat installation. Updates may also help if you are only running AA8.0. The updates can be downloaded from Adobe.com>downloads>updates. Be sure to install the updates in order.

  • How about a 'suggestions' section? or something like that?

    How about make a section where users can suggest features that they wish implemented on apple products?
    For a start, I would like to make a suggestion to itunes. How about give an option to choose which part of the ipod/iphone/ipad to sync? For example sync only the videos, but not the music, applications, etc.
    This solves my dilemma for example, because I store my music and video files on an external hard drive. So when I wish to sync my iphone, I have to connect the external hard drive to the PC first. It becomes a problem to me when I brought my external hard drive to some other place, but I want to sync my iphone.
    If I can choose which particular part to sync on the iphone, I can sync my videos without losing the other files like music, applications, etc.

    How about give an option to choose which part of the ipod/iphone/ipad to sync? For example sync only the videos, but not the music, applications, etc.
    You can do this already. Just opt select the items you want to sync.
