How to provide custom messages while viewing reports in obiee.

Hi,
I would like to show some custom message in all Dashboards. For instance when a user logs into the Dashboard, the report would take long time to get processed. So what to do so that we could provide custom message stating that.."Please select the required parameters..." or something else.. After selecting the necessary prompts, he would get what he wants..Is there some option in OBIEE where we can place mentioned messages.Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Ajay

One thing
You set default value which is not a database value... like Select Prompt Value something like this...
You set this kind of text as default value for all dashboard prompts.
So, when you click first time dashboard, it runs but leads to get No Results.
Here you can select prompt values and can run reports..
Or else
see this..
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/17/oracle-bi-101332-selecting-reports-from-dashboard-prompts-and-guided-navigation-sections/
Use this logic and in writing SQL for prompt, write a custom message that you want to write and then the report name while doing union.
like (let's say your report name is: "Rgn Dlrs")
select case when 1=0 then Markets.region else 'Select Prompt values and Report' end from paint
union all
select case when 1=0 then Markets.region else 'Rgn Dlrs' end from paint
now implement the guided navigation for section and try....

    Hi Kiran,
    Verified metalink and other areas but could not get any appropriate solution.
    I tried to reproduce the issue in various available environments...but no luck!
    My guess would be the datafix/BUG that you have referred in the MOS note 960504.1
    Please check with your DBA for this patch in test instance.

  • How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric f

    Hi,
    Please help me!
    How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric formatted fields (like this 999 999 999,99 with spaces between numbers) and then end user be able to process those fields with Excel tools (sum, etc).
    Thank you.

    From what I have seen Excel can not handle 999 999 999.00. You can use 999999999.00 and then format it as you want in the xls bt you can not have values like 999 999 999.00 coming from publisher output and have functions on the values in Excel

    No you shoudl never go into the XML source unless uinstricted to do so.
    You can open the script editor (under the window menu). It will appear above the drawing area but below the toolbars. You can resize it if there is not enough room. When you click on an object in the form you can choose an event to script against in the Show dropdown. In your case you will want to choose the prePrint event. A line will show up that indicates the object that is associated with the script as well as the event and other information. Add your script below this line. Once that is done you are finished and your form is ready for testing.

  • How to write custom messages to Data Manager package log from within SSIS?

    Just wonder in BPC 7.0/7.5 MS how do you write custom messages to Data Manager package log from within SSIS?  I mean I want to log output of specific custom tasks (non-BPC) in SSIS control flow to the resultant BPC package log created when running SSIS package in Data Manager.  Can this be done in a Script Task or some other way?  Not much documentation out there on this.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Hi Brian
    In order to achieve what you want, it can get tricky in your package, ultimately It would depend on the task, for example if you had an execute SQL task, you could use a RAISEERROR command in your SQL statement and BPC would return the error message that you specified.
    If you had other tasks, then it would be a bit more tricky, you would have to have custom messages based on event handlers.
    Please see below links for examples :
    [Custom messages for logging|http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345174.aspx]
    [Custom Logging Using Event Handlers |http://consultingblogs.emc.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/06/11/SSIS_3A00_-Custom-Logging-Using-Event-Handlers.aspx]

  • How to get SOAP Message while Request in WebService.. ?

    i am working on Web Logic WebService. I have created Web service and deployed into server.
    But now is there any ways to get the SOAP Message while request because i want to add some headers to the my SOAP Message before it sent to the backend.
    SOAPMessageContext smc=null;
    SOAPMessage soapMsg = smc.getMessage();
    System.out.println("SOAP MESSAGE :"+soapMsg);
    But I am getting NullPointerException.
    any Help ??...
    ThankQ.
    Ajay

    Hi
    In your code the NullPointerException is expected as the message context is null and not initialized before you call getMessage method on it.
    You can use soap handlers (client/server side handlers) to add the headers to the message before it is sent to the server.
    Soap handler has methods like below in which you can add the headers.
    * Handles incoming web service requests and outgoing callback requests
    public boolean handleRequest(MessageContext mc)
    System.out.println("Soap message is: \n " +
    ((SOAPMessageContext)mc).getMessage() + "\n");
    return true;

  • Can we show some user defined message while cube loading in OBIEE

    Hi All,
    Currently we are building OBIEE dashboards from Essbase ASO Cube as datasource.
    During Essbase Cube loading ,Essbase will "Disable all Administrative Commands".In this mean time,When users are trying to run the dashboards,OBIEE will thorws severe error.
    Can we dispaly some user defined message something like "Cube is loading.Please wait...." or any other alternative.
    Time taken to load the cube is 1hr.Please suggest
    Thanks,
    SatyaB

    Yes, You can better try replacing the whole OBIEE dashboard with a custom message. Whenver the load happens...you shud trigger or set a flag value to 'Y'. Using guided navigation when Flag value is matched to Y...right a JS to replace the whole dashboard.
    [html]
    [head]
    [script type="text/javascript"]var strStatus="@1";
    if(strStatus =='Y')
    location.replace('saw.dll?PortalPages&_scid=in6lPJnWWNk&PortalPath=/shared/Framework/_portal/Cube%20Status%20&Page=Cube%20Status');
    [script]
    [head]
    Replace square bracket with curly brackets in above replace code..
