Howto drill down to different hirerachies

Hi all
I have a geography dimension with 4 different type of hierarchies.In the business model those 4 hierarchies share the same parent(WorldWide) and the same lowest level(Store).
In the presentation model I create those 4 hierarchies by dupplicating the parent level and the lowest level.
When I test my report I notice that from the parent level(WW) I always drill down to the same hierarchy even if i'm in a different hierarchy.
My question : is it possible to define to wich hierarchy the drill down must occure.
If it's not possible howto disable the parent level drill down?
Regards

Unfortunaltly it's not what I need I already saw this post.
I succeed to find a solution temporally i disabled the drill down link in the report by using javascript
this is the link if someone need it

HowTo drill down calculated fields

Hi.
I have a report where I want to drill down calculated fields. I have e.g. two detail colums A and B and want to show the multiplication C=A*B in a chart with drill down functionality. The problem is, that I either can not select the calculated field C in the diagramm assistent when group layout ist activated or activating advanced layout indeed field C can be selected, but than there is no drill down functionality.

Drill-Down from several Charts to Same Target

Hi,
we have built a dashboard with 3 (soon to be 6) column charts and one line chart below. The colum charts represent 6 KPIs aggregated for a year for different warehouses. Each warehouse is a specific series (because we want them to have a individual colors). When the user clicks on a warehouse in one of the column charts, we want the line chart above to show the
For this purpose, we have all column charts store drill-down values to the same two cells:
- One cell stores the series name (warehouse selected)
- One cell stores the name of the clicked line chart (we use a single cell with the chart name as source for the first series of each chart. After the first series is selected as the default drill-down, this source and destination seems to be used for every series selected, which might be a bug)
Our problem is, all queries for the charts are loaded at startup. The default drill-downs for all charts are done, and we have a random chart in the drill-down destination. If the user clicks the same chart again, we do not notice this as the value of our target cell does not change. We have tried several solutions for this, but nothing is really satisfactory.
Does any of you have an idea, or a similar dashboard maybe, where the drill-down of several charts (preferably with several series per chart) is stored into a single target chart?
Thanks & Regards,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
You cannot have drill downs from different charts to the same target.
As per your scenario you have 3 column charts with warehouses displaying their respective 3 KPI's values. I believe you would have created a series each for available warehouses. If you have selected drill down on load for all the column charts with one single target then at load all the three column charts will try to place the destination of their selected series(based on warehouse selected) to the same target.
And also as you mentioned when the user tries to select the same chart again the target doesn't change, the reason is the same as all the charts are trying to put the destination of the series in the same cell.
Instead of doing it this way, what you could do is to name the series of all column charts the same and have the series name put into one cell. Then based on this series name you can lookup the data for that warehouse and display it in the line chart.
Here again the user has to select the same warehouse in all the three column charts else it wont work.
Hope this was useful =]

Drilling down from OmniPortlet chart to detailed chart in same OmniPortlet?

I am trying to use OmniPortlets to create a dashboard of charts showing different metrics.
I want to be able to drill into each chart to get a more detailed chart in the SAME OmniPortlet frame with all the other charts being unchanged. So if I have 3 OmniPortlet charts C1, C2, C3 in the same page, I want to be able to click on C1 and to be able to drill into C1 (details), C2 and C3.
I am trying to do this through OmniPortlet events, parameters and page parameters.
1) I've defined a OmniPortlet Param1 to parameterize the source of data - So my source URL is http://<URL-base>/##Param1##
2) I then defined a Page Parameter PP1 that is associated with Param1 and set a default value for this (to make sure ##Param1## gets set for the top level chart). I set this default value in the OmniPortlet Parameters page - (otherwise, the ##Param1## seems to map to a null sting despite the Page Parameter PP1's default value)
3) Finally, I defined an OmniPortlet event that gets fired when I click on the chart. The Event sets as one of its parameters, the data source that has the drilldown data. This column name is PP1.
So, the chart should first display with the data source URL being initialized from the Page Parameter. When I click on the chart, the Event should set up a new parameterized value in the data source so that next chart with drill down data is shown after a page refresh.
The reality is different from this theory. When I click on the chart, for some reason, the value of Param1 for refreshed Omniportlet display seems to be getting blanked out. So my chart definition gets messed up since the data source is now invalid. The page however continues displaying the original (pre-drill) chart from the cache.
2)
I don't know whether this problem is because of an improper use of the Page Parameters and OmniPortlet events or whether this is because I seem to be forced to set Param1's default value (maybe this is overriding my data source URL even in the drill down chart).
There seem to be some examples of the chart click causing another chart to refresh. These docs don't have a lot of detail, plus I want the SAME OmniPortlet to show the drill down chart.
Has anybody done this? Any pointers would be appreciated..

Use different Layouts for Summary and Details in Drill down report

Hi All,
I have a 2 level drill down report in ALV.
The summary report has certain fields and the Detail report has different fields. Now my problem is that when i use a default layout (with all fields of summary report) for the summary report, and drill down to the detail report i'm missing the fields on detail that are not in Summary. And if i save the default layout as default (with all fields of Detail) and go back to sumary, I'm missing the some other fields on summary (which are not on detail report).
Is there a way to make different default layouts for each of those summary and detail reports:
Also as the layouts are choosen by the user, i cannot hardcode any particular layout;
So if the user chooses a layout for detail; it has to stay the same layout for the detail report if he goes to summary and then back to detail; unless the user changes the layout again.
I'm using two different Layout types for each report. but i still cannot get the desired effect.
Data:
 gt_layout_s type slis_layout_alv,
 gt_layout_d type slis_layout_alv,
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_s
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_summary.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 exporting
 i_callback_program = g_repid
 is_layout = gt_layout_d
 i_callback_top_of_page = g_top_of_page
 i_callback_user_command = g_user_command
 i_callback_pf_status_set = g_status
 i_save = g_save
 is_variant = gs_variant
 it_fieldcat = gt_fieldcat[]
 it_events = gt_events[]
 importing
 es_exit_caused_by_user = gs_exit_caused_by_user
 tables
 t_outtab = it_detail_disp.

Here is how you differentiate between the layout of two different grids. There is the parameter, IS_VARIANT in the function. You usually leave it empty or pass only the report name and username. What you need to do is to pass unique string for each grids to the HANDLE field of the parameter IS_VARIANT. You can probably hard code it as HEADER and DETAILS in your case. Once that is done, system identified that these two different layout for different grids.

Ravi

Navigate to a different report from the Drill down path

Hi,
I have a question regarding the navigation.
I have a summarized report showing the fields City, Year and Count.
Now the user has the privilege to drill down on the Day dimension. He can drill down from Year to Quarter to Month to Day.
Is there a way for me to provide a navigation path at the Day level. Lets say when the user clicks on the Date then he has to be navigated to a different report showing the detailed report.
Since my summarized report does not have the fields Date I cannot provide the navigation path. The Date field is displayed only in the drill down path and I am not sure how to proivde the path.
Can anyone throw their inputs into this?
Thanks

hi,
i don't think there exists any out-of-the box solution through front-end.
If you know what fields appear on the detail report, provide a PRE-DEFINED drill path in the rpd to all the columns from the date column.

IDA ALV - different behavior regarding "drill-down" for grouped attributes after upgrade to ERP 6.0 EHP7 SPS5

Hello Experts,
we have upgraded our Dev System to ERP 6.0 EHP 7 SPS5 (coming from SPS4).
We had implement an example with an IDA ALV. On SPS4 we could make a "drill-down" to the single lines of grouped attributes. Now with SPS5 this is not possible anymore if the grouping is done for more than one attribute.
On the following screenshot it scan be seen that the grouping is done over a Peril attribute and the Currency. I can only make a drill-down via the peril attribute, so that the aggregated values per currency are displayed. ON SPS4 it was possible to make a further drill-down for the currency attribute, so that the different single lines were visible which were part of the grouping/aggregation.
SPS5 behavior:
SPS4 behavior:
I did not found any new settings which steers the behavior. Also I did not found any note which gives a hint that this is a bug.
Does anyone know if the behavior for that was changed and why?
Thx & Best regards,
Florian

Hi Florian,
it is related with the currency field and it seems to be a bug. Please open a ticket to get the problem fixed. The component is BC-WD-CMP-ALV.

Drill down needs to run different request

An existing 5-level drill-down request must be changed to display a different report on drill-down from level 3 and produce this report through level 5. The different report differs in the columns it contains as well as the style and content of the graph. Since the different report is particular to the unique value at level 2, this value must be furnished to the level 3 report for filtering.
I am new enough to the Siebel Analytics/Oracle OBIEE tool that I dont know where to begin looking for an approach to this. Any help you can provide will be appreciated.
Cliff

Hello Cliff, I dont have the BI in front of me but the concept is this:
Instead of creating one report and drilling down the 5 levels
You create 5 reports each report showing what you would want to see in that 'level'. Then instead of drilling down you navigate from the first repor tyou created to the second one and then from the second to the third etc.
If you want the reports you navigate to to be filtered by the value you click on you can filter them as "is prompted".
Navigation can be found on properties>column properties>column/value interaction i think in the criteria. You set the repoirt you want to navigate to when the user clicks on a field. You can also enter multiple navigaation targets.

Kostis

Drill down depreciation figure is showing different in S_ALR_87011990

I find a certain problem in the report S_ALR_87011990. Our fiscal year is calendar year. Now I executed this report for the month of January (only one month). the figure which is displayed in the accumulated depreciation showing one value and when you drill down from a figure, the AW01N report is displayed for that asset but the depreciatiion figure seen is not matching with the figure we started the drilled down. Why this is happeneing ? We are feeling little embarrassed.

Dear:
            Please check the link given.

Drill down in Bex is different than drill down in WAD

Hello experts.
I have been creating queries in Bex for 6 years and am very familiar with the Bex functionality. I recently started embedding some Bex queries into the WAD and of course am displaying them on the web. I am experiencing an unexpected problem with drill downs on the web. In a nutshell, the query drills DOWN as expected in Bex, but when I drill down on the web, the results are displayed ACROSS the web page instead of down the web page.
I am not using any custom HTML, Java, or other custom code. Has anyone experienced this? Any thoughts on how to correct? Here is more specific detail:
Bex query looks like this:
3 Characteristics in characteristics section.
3 Key figures in COLUMNS section
Nothing in ROWS section
Drill down in Bex yields characteristic values in rows, and key figures in columns (appears to be perfectly normal behaviour)
Drill down in Web yields characteristic values ACROSS the columns and key figures ACROSS the columns (not expected)
Objective is get to Web result to behave identical to Bex results where characteristic values display in rows, and key figures display in columns
Thank you.

Hi
Go to WAD and check for the Web items under Navigation.. and the result table.
you will find the options for the same.

Macro for same level of Drill down - Data in different grids

Dear Team
We have two characateristics of product - Product Line & Parent product Line.
I have created a planning book with two girds -
What I want is, in the first grid -
The Revised plan for the PL (Product Line) = Forecast Share of PL * Planned Production of the PPL (Parent product pine).
The Planned Production production of all PPLs together (Sum) is available in second gird. But how do I write a macro to fetch Planned production of each PPL (From second grid) and write a macro to calculate the logic in first grid?
E.g. in Above screen, the Planned Production of 60 is total Planned production of two PPLs (Indica =10 & Indigo = 50).
So If I want to achieve to calculate revised plan for Indica V2 & Indica Vista which has share of 40 & 60 % resp, in order to calculate the revised plan as 40% of 10 & 60% of 10 , how do I write a Macro to drill down second grid and fetch value of 10 for PPL = Indica?

Hi Anish,
There is "Series Names Destination:" parameter on Drill-Down (Insertion) Tab of Bubble chart component. By using that parameter you can retrieve selected serie. Via that value you can extract selected serie's selected value and drill down to required selection via some excel formulas like index-match or vlookup-hlookup. I hope that solves your issue.

Two different drill down based on values in rtf

Hi All,
For a column in rtf, can we have multiple drill down path based on the values of the column. For example, if the value is > 10,000 navigate( hyperlink) to Report A otherwise navigate(hyperlink) to Report B.
In obiee answer in action link we can put condition, but in BI Publisher using rtf is there a way to perform multiple drill down for same column.
Thanks,
Sushil

Thanks for your kind reply.
where to create conditional hyperlink in rtf. When we insert hyperlink we just place the url. I have a sample column1 with three values A , B and C. If the value is A then display www.google.com and if value is B then display www.yahoo.com and if value is C then display nothing. Where we place the condition while inserting the hyperlink in rtf.
Thanks,

Measures differing if we drill down by time-dependent Attributes

Hi Everyone,
I am having 2 similar reports,one based on a Cube and other based on a Multi Provider.
The data is being fed into these two InfoProviders,from exactly same sources.
Now,if I display the measure(eg. Invoice spend),in both the reports based on the above two InfoProviders,the overall Invoice spend matches across both the reports.
But if we drill down by a characteristic(eg. BU- Low or BU-High) they differ.But by drilling down by any other characteristic they matches.
I have found out,that the nav. attributes(BU- Low and BU- High) are checked "time dependent".
While the others,for which the result is matching are not.
Can this be a possible reason for the mentioned anomaly?Or can there be some other reason to this difference?
Thanks,
Brinto.

Hi Chinnapa,
Just want one clarification here.
take one example.
if you have loaded data on 10th April, then date range is 10th april to 30th april.
then you are loading data on 11th april, at that time you want date range 11th april to 30th april.
So what will happen to 10th april data? what range? 10th to 10th?
