Line Bar Combo chart with Bar-stack in OBIEE

Hi,
I want to create a Line Bar chart with only the Bar as stacked elements.
The bars should be on the Y1 axis and the Lines on the Y2 axis. Different scale on Y1 and Y2.
If I try this in OBIEE 11.1.1.5 answers, all elements (Bars and Lines) will be stacked.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks for response.

Line-Bar issue on 11g is not a bug. It’s part of the upgrade - Stacked line-bar graphs in which 2 or more measures are shown as lines on the same axis and are not stacked in 10g are stacked in 11g.

I have not found the workaround yet. If you find it please post on the blog.

Need help in Line bar combo chart - line is not prominent in dashboard

Hi All,
I face an issue where the line in a line bar combo chart is not prominent in Dashbords.
lets say i have 5 reports (all of them are line bar combo charts) in a dashboard. The lines in graph are not prominent or not displayed in usual thickness. But this scenario does not happen always. if i scroll down or up the browser(here i am using IE8) some of the reports displays line in the charts and some does not display the line. when i click on the report then the line will be displayed.
please suggest whether this is a browser issue ror something to deal with OBIEE itself.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
It's a bug in obiee11g. kindly download the patch file from My Oracle Support and delpoye it
OBIEE 11g: Line Bar Combo , With Stacked Chart , The Bar Width Gets Affected [ID 1369493.1]
Patch 12947990: BAR CHANGES WIDTH WHEN CHART CHANGED FROM DEFAULT LINE-BAR TO STACKED LINE-BAR
Symptoms
When the chart type is changed from Standard or Default line-bar to Stacked line-bar chart, the bars are reducing their width.
Line-bar should keep the width of the previous bars.
However, when vertical Bar is changed to stacked vertical, the bar width remains the
same. But when a regular Line-Bar is changed to stacked vertical, the width
changes (reduces, in this case it becomes half the original width)
Cause
For dual Y stacked bar graph, the bar width was half of the regular bar width
because the series assigned to Y2 was given the half of the space also. This is not needed if the marker type for Y2 is not bar.
The following bugs have been opened to handle this issue

I have produced a report based on this data which uses a combination graph chart. The sales for the current year are shown as a vertical bar for each month while the previous year and previous year but one are shown as lines. The report produces the correct output but I would like to add an extra feature
so that the vertical bar for the current year is shown as a stacked vertical bar so that the sales from each region can be seen within the bar rather than the bar just showing total sales. Is this possible byt altering the chart options within the template builder or would it be necessary to write some XSL code to do this ?

Yes and no, here's an example of stacked bar and area graph.

Combo Chart with Static Table

Hi Experts! I have one assignment to do...I have a bar line chart with departments on axis X and a static table with departments on rows....and one measure. Chart and static table has the same info. My static table has "Enable column sorting in Dashboards" YES, and a Rows per Page 10.
In dashboard I can click on column department to order A-Z or Z-A and my chart also changes, but in my chart I can see ALL departments (not 10) :S. Is possible to see in chart the same departments that I see in static table???
Thank you very much!
Regards

this can be done with some work in pivot table. in pivot table use chart + table for your report. then implement pivot table pagination. that allows you to select page and based on selection chart and table changes. but enable sorting on dashboard wont work in pivot tables.
and here is the link for pagination on pivot table.

Bar Charts with Non-Stacked Subgroups

I'm trying to create a report in CR2008 for my elementary school principals that will display how many students received a specific grade each of the three marking periods (T1, T2, and T3) per grade level per subject area (Math, PE, etc.). I was able to do this with a separate chart for each marking period, but would like to combine the charts into a single chart that has the grades (such as ADV, PRO, or BLB) across the bottom, and has the trimester scores as subgroups, so it looks something like this:
               3    123     23   1     1
              23    123    123   123   12
Kinder Math 123    123    123   123   123    123
             ADV    PRO+   PRO   APP   BASI   BLB
Each of the grades would have three subgroups (bars) representing the three trimesters. The y-axis scale would be the count of students who received each grade, with the maximum value set to the total number of active students at the end of the year (plus a small fudge factor in case the T3 enrollment is smaller than the T1 or T2 enrollment).
The database (SQL Server 2005) I'm pulling from has table I'll call Grades; it's joined to a table called Students to get the grade level. Each record in Grades has the following data in it (names have been changed to make them make more sense here, and only relevant fields are shown):
StudentID, CourseNum, Section, T1_Active, T1_Grade, T2_Active, T2_Grade, T3_Active, T3_Grade
If a student was enrolled in a specific CourseNum and Section at the end of a marking period, the XX_Active field will be "A"; if it's not, it should be skipped in the counting. Because of this it is very possible that the count for a specific grade/trimester is zero, especially at the outliers (ADV and BLB).
In Chart Expert >> Data >> Advanced, the current charts are set up using:
On change of Grade.T1_Grade
Show value(s): Count of Grade.T1_Grade
(Substitute T2 or T3 for the second and third charts.) Unfortunately, I have no clue what to choose for these values to get a combined chart.
My questions:
1) Does CR support bar graphs with subgroups that aren't stacked? Does it support having three subgroups?
2a) If so, what would be my next step to making this work? Is the secret in running totals, formulas, arrays, or something else? Maybe creating a view in the database that rearranges the data to make it easier to work with?
2b) If CR doesn't support this directly, would it be worth while to fake it with six separate bar charts u2013 a chart just for ADV next to a chart just for PRO+, etc. u2013 or would the performance penalty be too much? Would I need to have them each in their own subreport, or could they all live on the same level? Is this the way I'd need to go if I also wanted to put trend lines over or above each letter grade group?
Thank you in advance for any pointers you can give me.
Jim

If you can create a view, that would be very helpful, by making the view, you are pushing some of the work to the
server, so... "Hopefully" the report will be quicker. I don't think making six seperate charts would be all that much load on the
server, or cr. If you do that, would you stack the charts? and just make the top stacks with Transparent backgrounds?
Rather than add a view on the server u2013 there's talk that the next version of the gradebook program will completely refactor the database u2013 I did a SQL Command (I can't remember where I read about that tip over the last couple of feverish days, but my hat's off and I owe someone a frosty adult beverage!) that created a simplified table. I then used that to create a Cross-Tab (my original report approximated one using a whole bunch of Running Totals).
I then tried to make the chart, and got completely frustrated u2013 again u2013 until I accidentally created a chart from the Cross-Tab (right-click on the Cross-Tab and choose Insert Chart ). I had no idea you could do that, and it ended up being exactly what I wanted.
I have CRXI, if you go to the Sample reports, you will see one called Chart.rpt, this has multiple examples of some of the
charts you can create. Perhaps a 3D riser chart would meet your requirements. HTH If not, can you provide some different samples?
I would have never thought to look for the samples. Thank you! Now that I've got my immediate problem solved it's time to look at the samples and see what possibilities exist for future reports.

Controlling lines vs bars in a line-bar combo chart

I created a pivot view with 3 measures, and then selected the line bar chart type.
The first 2 measures show up as bars. The 3rd shows as a line on secondary (right hand dise) axis.
Is there any way to make the 2nd measure also appear as a line on the secondary axis, instead of a bar on the primary axis?

Line-Bar issue on 11g is not a bug. It’s part of the upgrade - Stacked line-bar graphs in which 2 or more measures are shown as lines on the same axis and are not stacked in 10g are stacked in 11g.

Organizational Chart with specific colors in OBIEE 11g

Hi Gurus,
How to create organizational chart in OBIEE? I tried to follow this link Oracle Business Intelligence by Sandeep Venu: Google Organization Chart in OBIEE 11G
but can't find out how to make specific chart (example chart of manager position) have a red color, the director chart have a green color.
Please help
Regards
JOE

This requirement sounds like it has a possible solution with some html coding. My idea is to :
1) Create a dashboard with two pages.
2) In the first page, create an iframe of the first dashboard.
3) In the second page, create an iframe of the second dashboard.
4) Customize the second dashboard page to have the custom background color.
Please refer to this link on how to customize the dashboard pages: http://www.appsassociates.com/resources/presentations/AA_OBIEE_Customizing_Dashboard_Appearance_NEOAUG_Fall09.pdf
Please assign points if helpful.
Thank you,

Chart Formatting Question: Line Bar Combo

Hello -
I have a quick question regarding the order of labels displayed in the legend on a line bar combo chart. I have figured out how to rearrange the order of bars in the chart (the order is determined by the order of fields in the criteria section), however, OBIEE seems to always put the "line" field before the "bar" fields in the legend.
I was wondering if there is a way to set the chart to display the "line" field following the "bar" fields in the legend?
Thanks for the help!
Jason

Hi Jason,
Go for Pivot Chart rather than Chart... and
Apply Order by s as you want inside pivot....
Previously even i got the order by problem in chart.. but trying the pivot chart, i resolved my issue...
So give a try..
Hope you know about pivot chart. Select Chart Only option from drop-down available for chart position
Thanks & Regards

Hi Stijn,
Thanks for your response.
I tried this...
new field: FILTER("Opportunity Base Fact"."Product Bookings Amt" USING ("Opportunity Stage"."Opportunity Stage Name" IN ('1 - Prospect', '2 - Qualification', '3 - Proposal', '4 - Agreement', '5 - Closing')))
I tried plotting this on the X / Y axis. But didn't get stacked bar graphs.
X axis i have fiscal month
y axis i added the new field
and line I added another measure.
But didn't get the stacked bar graph. Please let me know. :-(
Thanks,

Can you create an area chart and line chart combo? The line bar combo chart doesn't capture what I want.

hi,
it is better for 2 different questions,make 2 differents threads...

Overlapping of data series in Combo Chart

Hi All,
We are working on VC7.0
I have three data series elements and I would like to display them in a combo chart with two columns and a line .
( 1.Actual Gross Turnover - Column
2. Planned Gross Turnover - Column
3. Actual Gross Turnover prior Year - Line )
I tried with different options present there in Configure Element , but the two columns overlap with each other i.e the highest column is overriding the lower column.
Can someone help me out in this ?
Thnks,
NR

Hi Pasha ,
yes, i am quite sure that bars are overlapping and checked with the 3 options you have mentioned.
3. I have tried streching the graph horizontally but still the same display.
2. I did moved to mouse to the edge points of bar .. it only mentioned one data series instead of two
1. See if the db column contains NON-ZERO values ? ..
I am not sure of it but when deploying the model in VC , i got a warning message saying " Zero fill is checked without Max length in field "Gross Turnover Actual " of entity " query name "
Let me know, how this efffects the display and what do i need to do to resolve the issue .
Appreciate your valuable inputs ...
Thnks,
NR

Help with Bar & Line Chart on dual Axes

I'm attempting to build a chart with 2 series
Series 1 is a total
Series 2 is a percent value
I want Series 1 to be a column and series 2 to be a line
Here is what I tried
right click on the Bar that Iwant to display as line.
Select the series option and then select "Line" from the drop down.
But when I do this both series change even though they on different Axes.
What did I miss?
Thanks
Steve

you should first create a line chart, then click the series and turn to 'riser'.
Thx, Hao

Stacked Bar Chart with data from a Web Service

Hi,
I'm working on Dashboard Design (version 14.0.1.287) and I'm trying to create a chart linked to data from a webservice.
With a Year in input, my webservice gives an Amount per Cities and Products
Data retrieved look like this (Sheet1) :
Paris          Tablets          45
Paris          Laptops          12
Paris          Cellulars          89
New-York     Tablets          56
New-York     Laptops          36
New-York     Cellulars          1
Londres          Tablets          150
Londres          Laptops          3
Londres          Cellulars          45
Then I use a Pivot Table (created manually in Excel) looking like this (Sheet2) :
               Tablets     Laptops     Cellulars
Paris          45          12          89
New-York     56          36          1
Londres          150          3          45
The chart is a Stacked Bar Chart plugged on the previous Pivot Table
I create 3 series (one per Product), values (X) are set with Amount
Category labels (Y) are set with Cities
The goal is to have a dynamic chart (series and categories must update if a new city or a new product appears)
So my question is : how can I set up the chart directly with data retrieved from webservice on Sheet1?
Thx a lot !

hi
First thing , bad news if you are using .Net framework 1,
just forget it, Flex 2 doesn't work well with framework 1, but 2nd,
good news, if you want to use webservices, you'll have to make an
array of objects on .Net Side and send it as objects to flex, i saw
an example on the net but i can't seem to remember where, on the
other hand,if you want to simply use, like i do, HTTPSERVICE its a
very nice way to talk with .Net and you can see my example here
http://flex1-for-dummies.blogspot.com
By the way, in your code, you have a request tag , but you
aren't requesting anything, because if you were you would have to
make like this
<mx:request>
<Artist>{yourinputtext.text}</Artist>
</mx:request>
So if you don't have an input text, you don't need a request
tag, only the operation.

Stacked bar chart with single group

Post Author: rt50896
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Dear all,   I have a question about stacked bar chart with one group value(normally more than one group value is ok)   ex. YYYYMM      PRODUCT    AMT        -
        200601          ABC            1000        200602          ABC              300        200603          ABC              500       .....   the data collection is as above,then chart display: x-axis as YYYYMM,y-axis as PRODUCT...   but why this case the bar chart color not the same for each YYYYMM? and legend not display one PRODUCT as ABC only?   the bar chart display like this:   http://tkfiles.storage.live.com/y1po30C7CH6eW9phoLAXH89MBGwFLYdEZ3kOMQXUQzDzwM-VNnffibEwqPI8TIUNBm1f7uKTjnkaOI   ps. crystal report version is 8.5Regina

Thanks, Jeff. I did try this but for whatever reason it doesn't make a difference. I think it is because if there's no data for a given series for a certain week, there is no entry in the data set that is sent to AnyChart.
I was able to get around the issue by "filling in" the missing weeks from each data series. To generate the list of "Week Of" dates for a given date range, I used this code:
select
     trunc (each_day) as week_of,
     0 as effort
from (
     select
          (to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 2 - to_char(to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format),'D') - 1) + level each_day
     from dual
     connect by level <= to_date(:p920_end_date,:app_date_format) - to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 1
where
     to_char (each_day, 'D') = '2'This creates an effort entry of 0 for each week within the date range; I use the Monday date of a week as the "Week Of" date. I then union this with my actual data and summarize by week and viola, I get the weeks in order. This also has the benefit of showing a week for which there are no entries in any of the three series.
Thanks for taking a look at this.
