Issue in usage of presentation variable

Hi
I have made a Presentation Variable which reflects a value like 'FY 11 Q3' and gave a name yearqtr. Trying to use it as filter to report like 'name_quarter < @{yearqtr}. When i select an option of 'FY 11 Q2' it has to populate like this 'name_quarter<'FY 11 Q2'' instead it is replacing the variable like a number 'name_quarter<FY 11 Q2. Used another option of 'nam_quarter is less than @{yearqtr}' then it passing the sql as name_quarter='FY 11 Q2'. Tried to use cast it is not working.
Pls help me out, how to resolve this issue. To achieve < with presentation Variable.
Thanks
Sandeep

Hi Amith
Thanks for responding, but my issue is when i pass the filter " period<@{presentationvariable}" and its getting converted to "period=presentationvariablevalue".
I didnot get why its happening, it their a way to get out of this issue.
Thanks

  • Issue with Calendar prompt presentation variable

    Requirement: (OBIEE 11g)
    A dashboard should have two prompts - one calendar prompt and one text field prompt giving number of days. There is a timestamp column (SHIP DATE) in the analysis. There should be a between limit in this timestamp field. Logic to be implemented is - Calendar Prompt DateTime <= SHIP DATE < (Calendar Prompt DateTime + No. of days from text field).
    Solution Tried:-
    Using the dashboard prompt, two prompts and two corresponding presentation variables were created. First presentation variable is for calendar prompt timestamp (Date1) and other one is for no. of days (Num_Days) text field prompt.
    Then in the analysis, two filters were created on the Ship Date. First filter is set as 'Is Prompted' and it takes the values '<=' from calendar prompt in dashboard.
    For the other filter, I converted it to SQL and wrote the following:-
    "Time"."Ship date" <= (timestamp '@{variables.Date1}['YYYY-mm-DD HH:MM:SS']{2013-01-01  00:00:00}')  + @{variables.Num_Days}{30}
    The analysis runs fine for the above filters, but when run from the dashboard, it throws up an error.
    Error getting drill information: SELECT "Time"."SHIP DATE" saw_0, "Base Facts"."QUANTITY" saw_1 FROM "SHIPPING DATA" WHERE ("Time"."SHIP DATE" <= (timestamp '''2013-00-01 00:10:SS''') + 30) AND ("Time"."SHIP DATE" >= timestamp '2013-10-01 00:00:00').
    From the above it seems that error is coming because I am unable to set properly the calendar prompt presentation variable in a format which can be read by the analysis. Since analysis is running fine from the default value of Date1, I was thinking of somehow converting the calendar prompt presentation variable in the similar prompt.
    Any pointers to the correct approach?
    Thanks
    Kundan

    I found a workaround to my above issue for now but I would like to know the proper approach from experienced folks.
    My workaround is as follows:-
    I created an additional column in the analysis -> TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY,- @{variables.Num_Days}{30}, "Time"."Ship date"). Then I applied a filter on this new field. The filter is set as < variable expression Date1 (coming from presentation variable). Since I am not converting this filter to SQL, OBIEE server seems to be taking care of timestamp format conversion.
    I think I need to study the logs and the config XMLs to see how date format is being stored to get a better solution.

  • Date Prompts Issue using Calender and Presentation Variables

    Hi All,
    This is what the requirement is...
    I need to create a two prompts (from_date and to_date) on a date column so that I can filter the data using a between condition. This is how I am doing
    I have created two prompts (edited the formula) and passing the values to two presentation variables var_from and var_to. And in the report I am limiting the request on the using between operartor for both the presentation variable. Everything is working fine but the issue is that I need to display var_from and var_to in my report also.
    I am referencing both the variables as '@{var_from}' and '@{var_to}' but I am getting both the columns as blank. I am really not sure why I am getting blank values for both these columns only when I am able to filter my report successfully on the basis of date values in the prompts ...
    Just to metion ..in my database I have values in the format m/d/yyyy only. Hence I am able to use the calender successfully
    Any help on this would be much appreciated...
    Thanks
    -Ronny

    Ronny,
    Are you seeing blanks in answers ? Id expect this, but on the dashboard, when you set the filters , you should see the values coming through?
    You can extend the syntax of the pres variable and provide a default value, so when working in answers you can see what it looks like,
    something like @{var_from}{'01-Jan-2010'}
    Also you can reference the variables in the title, subtitle or narrative views if you wish.

  • Issue with usage of Clob variable to hold the output data...

    Hi All,
    we are getting the output of the sql query out from a function and this function return type is defined as CLOB.
    because of the volume of data being fetched we are getting the below mentioned error message when this Function is getting executed.
    “ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error”. : character string buffer too small
    Now even with CLOB if we are getting the buffer too small error message ...is there any other way or approach we could handle this..
    our requirement is to fetch the complete value from this function in one shot and we don't want to split the data based on the size / number of characters...
    This is causing us lot of issues...could someone please suggest as to what could be done regards this ...

    Post your script. How can we tell when we can't see your code.
    Also, better to post the table ddl's script and some demo insert statement here. And, please provide the DB version, too.

  • Presentation variable in column formula issue

    Hi,
    I'm having an issue about putting a presentation variable in a column formula. I'm using obiee 11.1.1.7.141014
    I'm adding a text in a formula column where I use two presentation variables: pPeriodo and pAno
    pPeriodo invoques the month selected in a prompt and pAno the year. I have to compare different years, so in one member I use @{pAno} when is the selected year and @{pAno-1} when is the prior year.
    The result of this (please see the header of the 2nd column):
    The problem is when Icompare to next years. So my issue happens when I do an addition to the presentation variable: @{pAno+1}
    It doesn't do the sum; it concatenates the value as you can see in the following images
    If anyone have a workaround about this, please share.
    Regards,
    Miguel

    Hi Joven
    Try @{pAno}+1 instead of @{pAno+1}

  • Presentation Variable Value not passing when used in Column Formula.

    Hello Gurus:
    Please help me with my requirement.
    We are trying to show a data backout in report, for example.
    For a Product Group Code of 2435 which belongs to Report Line C059 has a Sales Amount of $4,266.90 and in report we want the same Sales Amount of $4,266.90 to be shown as -$4,266.90 (Negative) under a Report Line C080.
    So in a report there should be same Sales Dollars as Positive for C059 (from Source) and Negative Sales Amount for C080 (Condition to be applied in Report).
    Solution I Tried
    I tried to create a Presentation Variable (SQL- Which would fetch me Sales Dollars for Product Group Code 2453) which returns with $4266.90 and then applied it in Answers in Logic (Case when Report Line = C080 then @{Presentation Variable}*-1 Else Sales Dollars END).
    Issue I am facing:
    Presentation Variable is coming as 0 and if i give any Format (Default Value) it shows the same default value in report. I checked the SQL i used and even when I Preview the Variable its showing me $4,266.90, but not in report.
    Please let me know a way to get this Presentation Variable value into my reports.
    Also please let me know if i can achieve this requirement in any other way.

    Thanks for your reply Paul. But there is no Invoiced Amount for Report Line - 'C080' from source. Invoiced amount of C059 should show as -ve Invoiced amount for CO80.
    In a report C059 should show +ve Sales Dollars and C080 should show same amount as -Ve Sales Dollars.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

  • Issue in using presentation variable as filter condition in the reports

    Hi,
    I have an issue in using presentation variable as filter condition in my reports the details are as follows:
    Details :
    We want to implement the Max and Min variables through Presentation variables only.we do not want to implement it through session variables in this case.
    We have two variables MIN and MAX to be used as Presentation Variables,for a column of the report (which is a quantity),so that the user wants to see the data for this column within a particular range.i.e the Min and the Max.This part has been implemented well . The issue is when the user wants to see the full data.In that case we will not pass any values to these two Presentation Variable or in other words we are not restricting the report data so we are not passing any value to the variables,this is when the report is throwing the error. we want to leave this variables blank in that case.but this is giving error.
    Please suggest how can I overcome this issue.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Praveen

    i think you have to use guided navigation for this. create two reports first is the one you are having currently and second is the one in which remove the presentation variable from the column formula. i.e. the same report with no aggregation applied.
    Now create a dummy report and make it return value only when the presentation variable value is not equal to max or min. guide the report to navigate between the first and second report based on the result of the dummy report.

  • Presentation Variable issue in OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    I have 2 reports, report 1 and report 2
    When i drill down on report 1 column 'Number of id's' will open the details report of Id's report 2
    I am using a Presentation variable in report 2 filters (detail report) which is generated in Main report dasnbord prompt.
    They have separate star schema.
    Main report(reprot1) using Aggregated table.
    Sub report(report2) using detail table.
    Problem:
    After upgradation from OBIEE 10.1.3.4 to OBIEE 11.1.1.5,(Unix server) The presentation variable value is not getting passed to the detail report. This is working completely fine in OBIEE 10g.
    Is there any BUG in OBIEE 11g wrt presentation variable or do we want to change the configuration?
    Thanks,
    Satheesh

    Hi,
    Not sure about the behaviour in 11g, but we faced a similar issue in 10g while passing the presentation varaibles to detail report where main/detail report where coming from different subject areas. The behavior was a little unpredictable. To overcome this, we tried using request variable instead of presentation variable and it worked for us.
    You can give it a try by doing the same and see if it works for you.
    Thanks

    How can I work around it?
    There is no way to create equivalent report without using the direct sql..
    Thanks in advance

    I have found a solution to this problem after some more investigation. PowerQuery does not support to use SQL statement as source for Teradata (possibly same for other sources as well). This is "by design" according to Microsoft. Hence the problem
    is not because different PowerQuery versions as mentioned above. When designing the query in PowerQuery in Excel make sure to use the interface/navigation to create the query/select tables and NOT a SQL statement. The SQL statement as source works fine on
    a client machine but not when scheduling it in Power BI in the cloud. I would like to see that the functionality within PowerQuery and Excel should be the same as in Power BI in the cloud. And at least when there is a difference it would be nice with documentation
    or more descriptive errors.

  • Presentation variable is not supported in "SQL Issued"

    hi, there is a presentation variable called @{ps_var} from a prompt
    and I have written a custom sql and typed in "SQL Issued"
    !http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/8673/customsql.jpg!
    I found that the presentation variable is not supported in "SQL Issued" (exception flows when I clicked the "Set SQL" button.)
    (in the captured screen, it is hardcoded as 'REPLACED_BY_PRESENTATION_VARIABLE', no error occurs when I clicked the "Set SQL" button. the result is correct.
    however, when 'REPLACED_BY_PRESENTATION_VARIABLE' is replaced by @{ps_var}, exception flows when I clicked the "Set SQL" button.
    is there an alternatives to avoid the error ? or any ways to assign the selected value from the prompt to this sql ?
    thank you very much!

    Just set your presentation variable with an other method.

    Thanks Goran!!
    I've created prompts by selecting columns from the logical tables (i.e. I've selected 2 different cols of datatype DATE...inorder to assign 2 presentation variables).
    Yes I m using calendar widget for prompts.
    I haven't included any filter in my report. I m trying to display a metric when it satisfies the case statement.
    I will defintley go through the blogs you mentioned for better understanding.

    Thanks !!

    Hi Forreging,
    You can use presentation variables, but not if you are directly setting the SQL via the Advanced tab.
    Instead, build up the first report just like the first part of the UNION statement. Then use the "Combine with Similar request" to build up the logic for the second part of the query.
    When you approach it this way, you have the ability to set filters on each "Sub-Request" via the Criteria tab. Otherwise, OBIEE only lets you add a filter at the outer level of the query when you go the route of setting the SQL in the Advanced tab.
    Good luck and if you find this post useful, please award points!
    Best regards,

  • Issue with presentation variables, dashboard prompt and filter

    Dear Guru's,
    I have a question about constraining a request with presentation variable set by a dashboard prompt. I have a dashboard prompt, that stores its value in a presentation variable . The prompt is about region. When the dashboard opens, the default of the prompt is all choices and it needs to show my reports with "All Choices". I've created the following filter on my two reports on the dashboard:
    "Dim Student"."Region" = '@{variables.GILLES}'
    or '@{variables.GILLES}' IS NULL
    One report is just the column "Dim Student"."Region" (to see if it works) and with this report the above filter works just fine. When nothing is prompted it shows "All Choices" when a choice is made the report responds accordingly.
    BUT
    The second report on my dash with the same region column, but extended with some time dimension columns and a measure gives an error which I'm not able to solve.

    While the exact same report but without the "or '@{variables.GILLES}' IS NULL" doesn't throw any errors but doesn't show the "all choices" by default.
    The ultimate goal to achieve is to build a dashboard with several reports from several subject areas with one single prompt that opens default with "all choices" and constrains the reports accordingly.
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,

    Phani,
    I know "All Choices" is a special value and that it doesn't represent NULL. My filter construction seems to work fine.
    My filter condition:
    "Dim Student"."Region" = '@{variables.GILLES}'
    or '@{variables.GILLES}' IS NULL
    When it's set by the prompt it filters the request accordingly (first condition evaluates to true), when it's not set the second condition evaluates to true and shows all the results (or it's not filtered).
    The problem is that it doesn't work when time dimensions are combined with this filter. Then it throws the error mentioned in the first post.
    By the way: your suggested solution doesn't work.

  • CRMOD Presentation variable scope and usage in drilldown report

    Hello dear all,
    I have dashboard and presentation variables on dashboard promt. When selecting these presentation variables all work fine within dashboard.
    But when I drilldown to another report that also uses these presentation varibales its not working.
    How to make possible to use presentation variables within dashboard ? Or maybe there is another way how to accomplish this.

    why do you want to show folder name for every column? folder name means name of the folder that reports saved in?? or presentation table name??
    you may use static rep variable to display folder name in report.
    Thanks
    Jay.
