Link Pivot tables between workbooks

I have two BEx workbooks A and B. Workbook A has the query data, pivot table and a pivot chart. I need to create a new Workbook B and link only the pivot table from Workbook A to the Workbook B.
Can we link a pivot table between two workbooks?
Raadooo

Thanks a lot, Chivukula !!!
This is what I got. I have 5 huge separate queries saved as workbooks. Each of these workbook has the query data. I created pivot table from this data and generated charts in the workbook for each of the seperate queries.
But now, I need to join or link only the charts into one workbook, to display a dashboard view. This dashboard view should have all the charts.
Since I would like to get the charts as a dynamic pivot charts, I want to link the pivot table from the exisiting workbook to the new workbook.
Can this be acheived? If not what is the other possible solution?
Thanks a lot for your help again!!!!

Excel 2010 Powerpivot workbook constanly crashing when editting pivot tables

I have a quite large powerpivot work book that I store on dropbox.   If I want to add the same field twice I go tot the normal pivot table field list and drop the field into the pivot table again. This used to be fine. I could
then make it show the difference form previous period or similar.   Recently after doing a couple of these or changing the number format excel just crashes.   I have tried rewinding my workbook version back to older versions and still the
same issue.
I tried just taking a simple single sheet of data and creating a new powerpivot model. i then dropped a couple of measures on to the pivot table and then the same measures again form the regular pivot table field list. I then tried to change on of these
to show values as % column total and crashed. so the problem is excel not my workbook.
I have run the repair through control panel and run sfc /scannow but problem persists. In event viewer the error shows as

Preserving Named Tables as Pivot Table data sources after copying to new workbook (Excel 2010)

Have 2010 Excel Workbook with Named Tables and child Pivot Tables and several other support sheets. I want to make a 'working' file -- with only copies of these Named Tables and Pivot Table
structures, and then I would populate the copied Tables with the 'real data' and crunch the numbers I need in this new working file.
I need to use VBA for this transformation (which I've tried).
Problem -- Upon copying the Named Table [Table1] and Pivot Tables [Pivot11] and [Pivot12] to the new stand-alone file, WORKING.xlsm, the Pivot Tables only recognize the Tables in the source file (I.e. the data source for Pivot11 is C:\...\'SOURCE.xlsm'!Table1),
and not simply Table1 in the new stand-alone file.
Longhand changing of the Data Source for each Pivot Table [Table1] from 'C:\...\SOURCE.xlsm'!Table1 to simply Table1 seems to be disallowed from all angles.
Anyone have clean VBA code that will copy the parent Named Table and its child Pivot Tables to an external .xlsm file without the absolute links back to the original source file ?

Hi Jon,
How do you change the data source?
Base on my test, we can change the data source by using this code below:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").ChangePivotCache ActiveWorkbook. _
PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"[path]!Table4" _
, Version:=xlPivotTableVersion15)
To copy and paste the Named Table and Pivot Tables, we could use
Range.Copy and
Range.PasteSpecial method.
To check whether the Pivot Tables parent is specify Named Table, we could check
PivotTable.SourceData property.

Link on a pivot table to see the data behind summary figures

Hello,
I need your support because I am not sure if what I need to do is possible.
I have a flattened table and I have created several pivot tables and slicers based on it. Once I have created the scenario I want to analyze (using slicers), I get some summarized figures in the pivot table. What I need is a way to put a link on those figures
to allow me to see the data associated to them.
For instance, if after applying some slicer I get one figure 3, another 2 and grand total 5, I need to see the 2, 3 or 5 records behind them filtered in the existing data (not just double-click and create a new worksheet) .
Thanks in advance for your comments,
Parseval

Hyperlinks in pivots are not supported.
There is some limited drill through functionality built into pivots, but you can't do a lot to configure how it behaves.
If it is enabled, which I believe it is by default, you show be able to double click on a aggregated total and a new sheet will pop up with the underlying records. If your measure is a relatively simple aggregation and the underlying data is a
flat file then this should work pretty well. The results can be unexepected if the measures are complex or there are a lot of underlying relationships in the model.
The other possibility is to use the pivots ability to collapse/expand fields. If you can put the row ID for the individual records into the rows of your pivot beneath what ever aggregated row you are currently displaying, then you should be able to expand
into the rows and see the lower levels of the "hierarchy". By default, all rows in you pivot would be collapsed, but then a user could click the little plus sign next to the row label and expand it to see the underlying records.

Hi,
the real problem of the original poster seems to be <af:commandLink text="#{row.GlobalDealId}" id="cl1" action="createMDM" immediate="true" partialSubmit="true"> having immediate set to true in which case the request goes from restore view to render response. You usually use immediate=true on a command item to cancel an action (bypassing all the other JSF lifecycle steps).
Peter551059,
you don't give us much information about your case. So if the problem is IE9 and you verified IE9 is supported for the version of JDeveloper you use, then - in case you have a support contract - my best advise is to file a service request and have support looking at it just in case you hit a defect that should be filed as a bug

Pivot table - calculate difference between 2 data points

I have a pivot table that shows Q1 2008 revenue, and Q1 2009 revenue, by account.
How do I create a summary column on the right that shows the difference between these 2 values? 2009 value minus 2008 value.
example:
2008 2009
Account Q1 Q1 Revenue Growth
Joe's Garage $1000 $2500 $1500
Thanks

You can try one thing. In the pivot table design, if you have any field in columns then create a formula,name it growth and write $3 - $2.
This will represent the subtraction of 2nd column from 3rd.
IF you don't have any field in columns, then duplicate any of the existing ones,pull it in columns and build the same formula.
Let us know if this works.

CRM on Demand Reporting; Action Links in Pivot Tables

Hi All
I have a problem with Action Links for Oracle CRM on Demand. When I click on an action link to navigate to an account detail page, I get the following error:
The record you are trying to access has been deleted or has been assigned a new owner and you no longer have access to it. If you deleted the record, it may be accessed in Deleted Items. If you continue to have problems contact your Oracle CRM On Demand Administrator.
Browsing the forums brought up this thread: Can't access a record with an ActionLink
In this thread it's said to place the Account ID column right next to the Account Name column. This solution works for regular tables, but not for pivot tables.
Is it possible to link to an account detail page from pivot links?

For pivot tables you will have to use this method in order to be able to drill down to the detail page:
On you Report-
Define Criteria: Add the Account ID (Record ID field is a must)
- Click on the Properties icon on this column--> Data Format Tab --> uncheck Override Default Data Format and select Plain Text from the Treat Text as drop down.
Add the below code in the text area.
"http://"@[html]"<a target=_top
href=https://*secure-ausomxXXX*.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/AccountDetail?OMTGT=AccountDetailForm&OMTHD=AccountDetailNav&AccountDetailForm.Id="@">View Account</a>"
Add this column on the Rows section of the pivot table.
Hope this helps!

Need to eliminate Space between two Pivot table view in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have a requirement to eliminate space between two pivot table views. In a single report I have two Pivot table with two different column, I placed both of them one after another, but I need to eliminate the space between two pivot table views as if it should show as a single pivot table in OBIEE 11g.
Could anyone please let me know how I can do this in OBIEE 11g?
Thanks in Advance

If I create narrative view it will be another view. And if I put that in between that two pivot view, it will show the space. I need to remove space between two pivot table within a single report so that it can appear as a single pivot view.

Variance between 2 columns in a Pivot Table

Hello,
We have an analysis that is a Union of 2 analysis. It has two result columns in the Union, each column have a value of one month. We have to create a third column with the variance between the second and first column.
We are using a Pivot Table and creating a New Calculated Item in the month column with difference between the columns ($2 - $1). But this results in four different columns - The 2 original ones and the difference repeated (for each month).
Pls. is there a way to build the pivot table the way we need it ? with just the 3rd column as a variance result.
Txs for any help.
Antonio

You may get the logical query as below
SELECT saw_0, saw_1, FROM (
(SELECT A saw_0, B saw_1 FROM "SA" )
UNION
(SELECT C saw_0, D saw_1 FROM "SA" )
) t1 ORDER BY saw_0
I would suggest to create another column at first line of SELECT so that you can use those saw_0, saw_1 columns to get another column something like
SELECT saw_0, saw_1, saw_0+saw_1 FROM (
(SELECT A saw_0, B saw_1 FROM "SA" )
UNION
(SELECT C saw_0, D saw_1 FROM "SA" )
) t1 ORDER BY saw_0
This is just a hint you need to put in your requirements
if make sense mark :)

Pivot table and link to account record logs user out of OnDemand

All,
I have created a simple accounts report using a pivot table. I would like the user to be able to drill down on the detail account record. I followed the instructions in Doc ID 454434.1 that describes how to do this without using an action link.
From the example, I created the following URL and inserted it in the account name column under data format using custom text format. The account id is also included, but hidden in the report layout.
http://"@[html]"<a target=_top href=https://secure.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/AccountDetail?OMTHD=AccountDetailNav&OMTGT=AccountDetailForm&AccountDetailForm.Id="@">"@"</a>
The link is available in the finished report, but when I run the report from shared custom analyses and click on the link it logs me out of the application and returns me to the sign in page.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dan

Here's an attempt to post the entire url again:
"http://"@[html]"<a target=_top href=https://secure.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/AccountDetail?OMTHD=AccountDetailNav&OMTGT=AccountDetailForm&AccountDetailForm.Id="@">"@"</a>"

Link Table between CRM and ERP

Hi Experts,
Does anyone knows the link table between CRM and ERP for Contact Person (Buss Part) CRM and Contact Person ERP.
In my customer system, contacts are automatically duplicated in CRM.
When you make a change in ERP, this change is automatically done in CRM.
So I suppose that there is a table between the both systems to find the corresponding number...
Thank you for your help and hope my English is good enough to understand :o)
Best regards,
Luis.

Hi Micky,
Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunatelly, number are differents...
I move this question to CRM forum ;o)

Linking Table Between Database

How can I link my table to 1 view in other database?
I know, we can estalish the connection but I don't know how to do that.
Please help,
Thank You,

What do you mean "link"? You can create a database link
CREATE [PUBLIC] DATABASE LINK database_link_name
CONNECT TO username_on_remote_machine
IDENTIFIED BY password_on_remote_machine
USING 'tns_alias_to_remote_database'and query tables across the database link. You cannot, however, define foreign key constraints across instances, which is a good thing considering the performance implications of doing so.
