IBOTS work in a strange manner in OBIEE 10G why..?

Hi All,
I have set up an IBOT and define my email id as well as email id of user B in my accounts.
I clicked on my email id radio button.
Now i created IBOT and in receipent tab I defined Me and specfic user from list i.e. B
When I run the IBOT both users( me and user B) get emails...
1. is it possible...because i have checked my email id Radio button...why user B is getting mail.
2. When I uncheck Me and run the IBOT none of user get email.

Hi,
Please refer my blog it will give you how to do your requirement.
http://satyaobieesolutions.blogspot.in/2012/10/obiee-deliversschedulersibot-setup-and.html
Please follow the steps.
1. Navigation: Answers--> Delivers--> Create New iBot Click on Create New iBot.
Click on General. In the general tab you can set the importance of this iBot.
Priority: You can set the priority to High,
Run As: If you select data visibility to Not personalized, then you need to select Administrator , using which responsibility the query will be executed.
Schedule Tab:
This tab is used to select various schedule options for the iBot. They are used to set the Start time and Date, Recurrence and End date for the iBot.
Recipients tab:
To send the delivery content to the creator of the iBot
Delivery Content
Headline – This will generally be the subject line for the email.
Send Content as: Various options for the drop down:
 Device default
Delivers will use the device default to determine the content format.
 HTML
Delivery content will be sent as an HTML attachment.
 Attachment (PDF)
Destinations Tab: • If we select Specific Devices: Check the Email.
Siebel Workflow- We can also run a workflow after execution of an iBot.
Thanks,

  • Strange behaviour of OBIEE 10g dashboard prompt

    Hi BI gurus
    My inventory Dashboard page has a multiselect Status Prompt which is throwing up a strange issue.
    When selected all values i.e using << button from Status prompt and clicked on OK then it gets refreshed by itself and all the values from selected area gets back to the selection area and the dashboard page diaplays the status prompt with no values where as if all the values are selected one by one and clicked on OK then the prompt behave as expected.Is it a bug?

    I would suggest to delete this and create a new one or else check with other prompts.
    Also check the session log for the prompt.

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing a possible misbehaviour with OBIEE 10g (10.1.3.4.1).
    I have a simple report with a table. Columns are simply selected from dimensions and facts. In this case the generated query is:
    WITH
    SAWITH0 AS (select sum(T30604.TOTAL_TIME) as c1,

    Results of this report / query are wrong: it seems as if some rows "disappear".
    If I delete the filter in SAWITH1 query above ( D1.c13 = 1 ) results are correct.
    Anyone experiencing the same problem? The strange thing is that I have a number of similar reports (on other subject areas) and everyting is working fine.
    Please also note that I don't want to add this kind of calculated items in the RPD (they can be simple calculations that are made on-the-fly).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks a lot and regards,
    Cristina

    I have the same issue, everything OBIEE server generate query using ROW_NUMBER() over () function, it will hardcode Dx.cx = 1, this will cause issue if you have rows of the same distinct value, thus causing missing rows and the final results will be wrong.
    I have open a SR with Oracle Support since March 2011, but till today, they have not resolve the issue yet.
    Hope they solve the issue soon.
    Best Regards

  • OBIEE 10G sheduler configuration -email

    I am trying to set up an answer report to be scheduled to users by emails.
    So far I have followed this OBIEE 10G - BI Scheduler Configuration (for Delivers) | GerardNico.com (BI, OBIEE, OWB, DataWarehouse)
    And I have created a iBOT for an answer report and tested it work OK to deliver the report to dashboard.
    Now for deliver through email, I have followed this OBIEE 10G/11G - How to configure the Mail server of Scheduler/Delivers | GerardNico.com (BI, OBIEE, OWB, DataWare…
    So I have set up an email smtp in Job manager -  scheduler configuration. It's a non SSL smtp and I have tested the smtp information on another application to make sure it's correct. I restarted presentation server and scheduler in windows - service. But when I test the iBOT, I got following error message:
    [nQSError: 75005] Failed to send AUTH command. 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful.
    Any idea? I am sure the smtp server, port,  username, password are correct because they work in another application. Thanks.

    check this OBIEE 10g: Error: "[nQSError: 75005] Failed to Send AUTH Command. 5.7.3 Authentication Unsuccessful" Running iBots and no Email Message is Sent by Them (Doc ID 796842.1)

    When I add an user under BIAdministrator Application role and login, all the reports work correctly.
    I verified Oracle BUG fix (11850704) document and tried to make changes as suggested.
    Please suggest me if this issue is related to 10g to 11g RPD upgrade or are we missing any privileges?
    Also should I add every user to BIAdministrator role to avoid this issue?
    Thanks in Advance

  • OBIEE 10G SSO Issue

    HI
    We have configured OBIEE 10g on IIS (ver-6) server. We have a business requirement where we need to integrate OBIEE with another ASP.NET application. So, user should log in once and to view OBIEE reports he should not log in again.
    Now we have checked GO URL option given in Chapter 11 of Oracle® Business Intelligence Presentation Services Administration Guide. But problem is our company policy does not allow us to pass Password in HTTP URL. So we cannot use that solution.
    We are trying to use SSO and referred to Chapter 8 of Deployment Guide. We followed all the steps give in that chapter
    Also, we modified isapiconfig.xml and entered &lt;CredentialStore&gt; paramaters in it.
    But when we Go to Analytics URL (for remote machine) Login screen show "Not Logged In" message.
    currently we are using REMOTE_USER method as it is given in documention.
    So we did everything by the book. Now my question is:
    1) We do not have any SSO server/Product, is there is any way we can integrate OBIEE application to other ASP.Net application on another IIS SERVER? There was a suggestion that if we pass remoter_user parameter in HTTP header, is it possible to work this way.
    2) Is it possible that if we host both the ASP.NET and OBIEE 10g on SAME IIS server there is way to integrate them using SSO without any SSO server again by passing remote_user HTTP header
    3) What options do we have to integrate ASP.NET application and OBIEE without using SSO server itself and without using GO url method as we cannot pass password in header. Will Cookie Enabling Method can work in this scenerio.
    4) Is there is way that OBIEE directly take windows ID without SSO server, I know question might sound stupid as in prerequisite i read that we need “SSO system of Choice” but we need to be absolutely sure about our option and possibilities.
    we also reffered to following thread:
    10g - how to configure sso with iis-
    But, this one seems to be unresolved So kindly help

    Hi Praveen,
    Thanks for your response. I was doing a bit of R&D on SOAP API, tell me if i am wrong.
    In case we use SOAP API to Authenticate then we will get Response in terms of XML and we have to write our own code to render it in tables or charts.
    We dont want that we just want to automate the Authentication part and want to use OBIEE use Interactive Dashboards. Kindly suggest if I am wrong and if we just write a piece of Code to get the Authentication done and it will not affect the further use of OBIEE.

  • EPMMaster.rpd Fusion Pack migration from OBIEE 10g to 11g

    We have successfully installed OBIEE 10g and 11g on Windows 2008 32bit servers. On the 10g Installation, we have applied the Fusion Pack EPMMaster RPD file and it connects successfully to our EPM warehouse. We want to migrate the Fusion pack to 11g which is also setup on the same platform. Per the instructions in the documentation, we have copied the files (RPD file and Webcat folder) to the 11g server. We run the UA.bat file and it proceeds to start copying the files over fom the RPD and WebCatalog to the new system. It completes this process, but then hangs on starting the Oracle BI server - it never gets beyond that.
    We will be purchasing the EPMMaster RPD and know it is not available yet for 11g – however we’re trying to get ahead of the curve a bit and manually fix the items in the presentation layer that will not render correctly in 11g
    upgrade exception occurred
    Unable to start process: instance1: coreapplication_obis1
    One thing that I noticed – Since the UA tool does not completely finish --
    RPD size on 10g – 42,675KB; 11g – 6,375KB
    I manually change the webcat in Enterprise Manager to the EPMMaster catalog -this actually caused additional errors on restart.
    Has anyone attempted upgrading a delivered RPD to 11g?
    Thanks in advance -

    This is a known issue that we have worked through with Oracle tech support. The Dimension Deduction.Deduction Sid causes an error that prevents the UA tool from completing the upgrade process. There are a couple of ways around this, but the fastest is to simply delete the Dimension, the two related hierarchies and the fact table that is joined to this dimension. Physical table do not need to be touched however. There are still issues once it’s moved to 11g, but those can be addressed post migration. Thanks much to the Oracle support team for helping us out with this issue!

"first we need to deploy RPD and WEBCatalog files in to New(OBIEE11g) system and we have to test RPD and WEBCatalog files,Whether these two are working fine or not? Because in OBIEE 10g we have OC4J Server,But in OBIEE 11g Architecture wise it's entirely Different here we have OBIEE WEBLOGIC Server. We have to Deploy RPD in WEBCatlog files in to WEBLogic server. And If any changes have to do in Securities and Variables we need to make changes in that after Migration".

  • OBIEE 10g - Office Add-in - MS Office 2010

    We have all users on MS Office 2010 and our BI app is on OBIEE 10g. Unfortunately the OBIEE 10g Office Add-in doesn't install with MS Office 2010 (It works with Office 2003 and 2007 only). Does anyone knows how to resolve this?
    Other options I tried is to install Office Add-in from OBIEE 11g - It gets installed with Office 2010, but I am not able get OBIEE 10g reports.

    I got the solution. Thought I should share it. The add-in available with latest version of OBIEE 10g i.e. 10.1.3.4.2 works with Office 2010.

  • Filter on the reports created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g

    How do i filter on the report that is created by using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g?
    I have reprot A with link to report B, report B is created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS. so it is just a table, but i need to filter out 2 columns.
    here is the query in REPORT B:
    select strm, acad_group, crse_id, class_section, count(emplid) from v_crse_enrl
    group by crse_id, strm, class_section, acad_group;
    the link in REPORT A:

    from this link to report B.
    thank you!!

    I didnt tested using url, but the same works with using presentation variables.
    To your direct sql add where clause for those two columns like WHERE col='@{col1}' and col ='@{col2}'
    and try to run from url.

  • Problem in navigating from one report to another in OBIEE 10g

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue with OBIEE 10g while applying navigation on my reports.
    Lets suppose I made a report showing list of all items(in broad categories) sold on a particular day, say Dairy, Frozen Foods, Chocolates etc.In this report there is a date prompt showing the date of sale.
    Now there are certain items that are distributed within these categories, like dairy includes milk, cheese, butter etc.
    Hence, my navigation should be like when I click on a particular item category, the control should move on to the report which has all items under that particular category and the prompt for this report should show the same date as passed in the previous report.
    But sometimes what happens is that on clicking the navigation from first report to the second one, the date is not persisting in the prompt. I say sometimes because at times the navigation does work correctly. This is a bug of Obiee or something which is giving unexpected results.
    Kindly help with your suggestions.
    Thanks
    Ankita

    Ankita,
    This is not a bug in OBIEE...I'm sure something is missing. If this is working for some cases and not working for some other case then you will need to find the root cause. Try in bits and pieces...Step by Step with some dates (unit testing). Ideally this shud work properly.
    For an instance try with OBIEE drilldown feature and not with navigation with a single sale date and observe the behavior.
    Hope its clear...
