How to drill down and stay on the dashboard

Hi:
OBIEE 11.1.1.6
I created an Action Link that calls another Answers report, and I display the report on a dashboard. The drill down works, but the target report opens in a new window. How can I provide this simple drill functionality but remain on the dashboard?
Thanks!

Hi,
by selecting "Drill in place" then it work as your expected way.
steps: just to edit that dashboard --> your dashboard page object section --> properties -->set it as "Drill In Place" save it and then test it.
Thanks

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 down and Navigation in OBIEE Dashboard

Hi,
We have a requirement to navigate to another report by clicking the drill down column.
For. E.g. The Existing Drill down in the report is as follows: Country -> Region -> Area.
Now, when the user clicks on Area , it should navigate to other report which will provide more details.
Since, Area column comes only after drilling down(i.e. It does not exists in the Criteria of the report) how to use Navigate option or GO URL to navigate to other report or dashboard.
This is urgent. Please help...
Thanks.
Regards,
Johnny

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

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"

Is it possible to implement the drill down and navigate reorts in narrative

any body pse help me to find 'is it possible to implement the drill down and navigate reports in narrative view'

Hi user12255470,
Go URLs are a way to directly call an Answer Request or Dashboard Page via a URL. In addition, you can even pass parameters in the URL as filters. GO URLs are used will you want to allow a user to drill into detail by clicking on a static text. It also allows other tools to drill into OBIEE.
Here's an example GO URL: http://LOCALHOST:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Go&Path=/users/administrator/OTN Tests/Page Test&Style=oracle10&Format=PDF
I'll break down each piece
LOCALHOST: This is the URL for your OBIEE web host
:9704: This is the typical port for OBIEE installs (sometimes 7777)
?Go: This is where the it's gets the name "GO URL". It's the GO command.
&Path= : This is the full path of the report. In my case, it's in the administrator folder in a sub folder called OTN Test. The report itself is called Page Test.
&Style=: This sets the style, or the look and feel, on how the report is presented. The default is oracle10.
&Format=: You can set this to default the presentation. I set it to PDf so that a PDF will generated.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards!

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

When I import videos taken with my iPhone 4S to my Windows PC, some of the landscape videos are upside down and all of the portrait videos are rotated 90 degrees. It makes a difference depending on what position I hold the Iphone when taking videos. Help!!!!

Sometimes syncing will have problems with very large video files like this. I'm not sure you will be able to overcome this, but if the videos are important enough you may consider purchasing 3rd party software such as Touch Copy to transfer them.

How to drill down from summary report to detail report using RRI?

Dear all:
A problem about RRI. Please help me!
1.I create a BEx query 'Q1' to show summary data.
2.I create a BEx query 'Q2' to show detail data.
3.In Q1, all the products are shown each row.
       The 1st coulmn is 'Balance in the begin', it shows how many customer claim cases are opened before this week.
       The 2nd coulmn is 'New', it shows how many customer claim cases are initalized in this week.
       The 3rd coulmn is 'Close', it shows how many customer claim cases are closed in this week.
       The 4th coulmn is 'Balance', it shows how many customer claim cases are still opened now. And this column is calculated by this fomula as follow:
         'Balance in the begin' + 'New' - 'Close'
   4.In Q2, it lists each customer claim case. Include ClaimNo, Sold-To Party, ProductNo...
   5. I set Q1 as sender, Q2 as receiver.
   6. If I focus on the value of 'New' or 'Close' and then go to 'Q2', the correspond detail calim information in 'Q2'. But it is fail if I focus on the value 'Balance'.
   Why?
Thanks,
Jolin

I don't know if you can use the hyperlink to call a subreport but the following has worked for me in Crystal 10:
1. In your main report create a group on the field you want to pass to the subreport.
2. In the Group Footer, use the "Insert Section below" menu command so that you have a Group Footer 1a and a Group Footer 1b.
3. Put your table fields in the Group Footer 1b section (this would be similar to your Details data).
4. Put the sub report in the Group Footer 1a section. Set up the links to the subreport from a table field in your main report.
5. Right-click on the sub-report, select "Format Sub-report". Click on the "x-2" button to the right of the Suppress option and enter "DrillDownGroupLevel = 0" in the "Formula Workshop-Formula Format Editor-Suppress" window and save it.
When you double-click on your data field (i.e. the field in Group footer 1b) it should drill-down and run your subreport.

How to Drill Down Between Queries

Hi Experts,
I am fairly new to developing reports, so at the current system there are 2 queries Summary(on a Cube) and Detail(on ODS). These are independent queries rt now. I want to pass Cost center and fiscal Period as parameters from Summary to Detail queries and make it a drill down report so that for each cost element we can get the document details. I have read the other posts relavant to how to drill down while passing parameters but dint understand much out of those.
Can anyone please lay down a step - step approach in doing this? Or share any kind of explanatory documents.
Thanks
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
Each response you have received so far is recommending the Report-Report Interface (RRI). It is a powerful and useful technique. It is simple to do (minutes) and it works in all current and future front-end environments.
The problem with using is that users need a little bit of training. And the results they get are ALWAYS exactly as the "receiver" query is displayed in its Global Definition.
If your users are using Excel and you want them to use a standard template workbook for the receiver, this is difficult (not impossible) to obtain because you need to "touch" each of their PCs and ensure that they have the correct settings on their PC each time you have an upgrade of the front-end (either BW upgrade or PC upgrade).
In most peoples' opinion, the benefits of RRI outweigh the disadvantages.
There is another option if you are using Excel. You can put both queries in a single workbook and use the Business Explorer Analyzer's API functions to create a "Jump" from query 1 to query 2.
You can set this up to occur every time that query 1 is refreshed. Or, your user can select one (or several) results from query 1 to make the jump to query 2.
The great disadvantage of this alternative approach is that it requires use of both Visual Basic and the BEx API functions. Not very many people are good at either one of these. But, they are simple to learn and once you do, there is no end to the amount of customization that can be obtained.
If you want more information about this approach, post again. Or, do a search on previous posts that I have made (from these you will find the names of others who are very knowledgeable in this approach as well.)
Also, here is a link to some examples of BEx API functions that accompany an article written by Joerg Boeke

How format drill down column?

Hi all,
We can format the column in report , but when drill down to another column2, how can i format column2?
Thanks!

Bring the second column into the Criteria Tab and Edit the Column format as per your needs. Once you ar done at the bottom Save the column 'as the system wide default for that column'. After saving remove the column from Criteria tab.
Next when u drill down to column 2 the formatting would appear automatically. Hope this helps!

Difference between drill down and filter using navigation attributes?

hi all,
can anyone let me know the difference between filter and drilldown options using navigational attributes. pls explain with examples for filter and drill down and how it varies.
thanxs
haritha

Jst to add up with an example :
Say you have a cost center variance analysis report with cost elements in the filter. ( not present in the default report result )
Filter - You can right click on a particular cost center & say " Keep Filter Value " - it will result in only showing that cost center & you can wish to select other filter value doing " Select Filter Value ".
Drill Down - If u wish to see the cost elements associated with cost centers you can right click on Cost Center & do " Drill Down To - Cost Element " or Drill Across.

Drill down and Drill up

hi,
I need to explain to a team, how drill down works. I mean, what are all the properties that I should set for an infoobject to do drill down and drill up on it.
also, the purpose of hierarchies is drill down? I didnt understand.
thanks.

The drilldown and drillup feature is set and achieved in the report by designing in the query designer.
In the Query Designer if you push a characteristic in "Free Characteristic" then details for this characteristic won't appear in the report.To see the details for these characteristic you have to drill down the original report.
For Example you have 2 characteristic 0CUSTOMER,0CALDAY and you are displaying KFs "No of Orders" and "Order Value".
Now if you have both characteristic in the ROWS section in the query designer the report will show Customerwise Daywise Total Order and Sum of Order values.
Push the 0CALDAY to Free Characteristic.Now you will see only Customer wise No of orders and Value.Right Click you will find an option to drilldown to 0CALDAY and when you select you will be able to see Customerwise Daywise details.
Hierarchies by default shows the first node and you can drill down to its children.
Navigational Attribute behaves as a characteristic in the infocube with which you will be able to restriction as well as drill down/up.
