Making Dashboard page as default page
Hi Experts,
Im working on OBIEE 10.1.3.3 wherein my dashboard contains 4 pages. After log in and once selected the dashboard, dashboard will open first page as default page but i want second page to be my default and there is should be no reordering the dashboard pages. Is there any solution for this?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Thanks for immediate response.
Let me keep clear.
I have a dashboard which contains 4 pages. When i click on dashboard after log in,it should display second page as default instead first page.
What actually OBIEE is doing is that it will open first page as default when we click on Dashboard but i want second page as default. I shouldnot reorder the pages is also my concern. Please let me know if you have any solution.
Thanks

Making one of dashboard page default
Hi Experts,
Im using OBIEE 10.1.3.3 wherein i have dashboard which contains 4 pages. When i login to this Dashboard i should see 2nd page as default instead of 1st page. I dont want to reorder them by going to dashboard properties and making 2nd page as my first page and first page as my second page. Without affecting the order of pages , i should default navigate to second page when i open my dashboard`. Please let me know if you have possible solution for this.
ThanksYou might want to look up the use of the PORTALPATH system session variable. You can set it for each session.

Collapse A Dashboard Page Section by Default
I have a few Page Prompts on my Dashboard Page where I saved the selections for "Everyone". I am looking for a way to collapse just the one section with the page prompts by default for "Everyone", so my users will not be tempted to change the prompt selections.
Does anyone have a working solution for this? Thank you!Maybe this can help as a start:

Reg: Dashboard page Name not getting displayed.
Hi
I have created a dashboard Dashboard1 and it has 5 different pages
pg1 thru pg5. I have 5 users USER1,USER2.USER3,USER4 and USER5.
I have assigned each page to a user and all the users have access to Dashboard1
i.e
USER1 pg1 of Dashboard1
USER2 pg2 of Dashboard1
USER3 pg3 of Dashboard1
USER4 pg4 of Dashboard1
USER5 pg5 of Dashboard1
The problem is name of the pages is not displayed once the dashboard is accessed after log on..The report attached to that page is displaying data, but page name on the tab is blank...
Could anybody help me with this information pls..
Thanks in Advance...Hi,
When a single page is placed on the Dashboard it will not show the page name as it won't show any tab on the Dashboard. This is happening by default.
This case applies to your scenario as you restricting those pages among the users.
To just check, give the permissions to the user1 to view 2 dashboard pages instead of 1. Then you can able to see the page names on the tabs as 2 pages are on the Dashboard for that user.
I am also not aware of displaying the Page name when there is a single page on the dashboard...:(

OBIEE 11g How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.
How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.
I have two prompt in dashboard page as below.
Reporttype
prompt: values(Accounting, Operational) Note: values stored as
presentation variable and they are not coming from table.
Date prompt values (Account_date, Operation_date)
Note:values are coming from dim_date table.
Now the task is When user select First
Prompt value “Accounting” Then in the
second prompt should display only Accounting_dates , if user select “operational”
and it should display only operation_dates in second prompt.
In order to solve this issue I made the
first prompt “Reporttype” values(Accounting, Operational) as presentation
values (custom specific values) and default presentation value is accounting.
In second prompt Date are coming from
dim_date table and I selected Sql results as shown below.
SELECT case when '@{Reporttype}'='Accounting'
then "Dates (Receipts)"."Acct Year"
else "Dates (Receipts)"."Ops
Year" End FROM "Receipts"
Issue: Presentation variable value is not
changing in sql when user select “operation” and second prompt always shows
acct year in second prompt.
For testing pupose I kept this presentation
variable in text object of dashboard and values are changing there, but not in
second prompt sql.
Please suggest the solution.You will want to use the MoveClipLoader class (using its loadClip() and addListener() methods) rather than loadMovie so that you can wait for the file to load before you try to access anything in it. You can create an empty movieclip to load the swf into, and in that way the loaded file can be targeted using the empty movieclip instance name.

How to send a dashboard page as selection with ibot
Hi,
I am trying to send a dashboard page via email, but with a previous selection I have done through prompts.
This is what I have done:
1.Created the selection and saved as "Generic"
2.Selection is saved in my user OBIUSER under /users/obiuser/_selections/hj0qcjg2ln00aro9
3.I copied "Generic" from the above folder to a folder XY under the SHARED folder where I have some other dashboard stored.
4.When I am in Delviery content , choose "select content" and browse in the XY folder, but I see only the dashboard pages and not the selection "Generic"
The reason, I have copied it, is that from the delivery content session, I can not see my user, but just the SHARED folder.
Do I maybe need to create a _selections folder under the SHARED one and save it there?
Thanks and Regards
GiulianoThe article describes that when you have a saved selection for a dashboard page and you set this saved selection as default, the iBot will use this saved selection to filter the data on the dashboard page.
So, unfortunately, there is no option to select the saved selection you want to use for a dashboard. -

Conditionally Hide Dashboard Pages using Javascript.
Hi, I would like to share a small logic i developed to Conditionally show or hide Dashboard Pages based on a Repository Variable.
In the last few weeks we noticed that the ETL jobs scheduled everyday were failing due to various obvious reasons. As a result, Our Dashboard are greeting the users with "No Data to Display Messages". Most of our Sales Dashboards are defaulted to show business health as of yesterday (Sysdate -1). If ETL scheduled everyday at 3 am failes, then the Dashboards show no data. Emails from Users, etc. etc........
For a few days we were manually trying to post some messages on Dashboard something like "Please come again, Our Data for yesterday is not yet loaded........".
I thought it would be nice to hide the Dashhboard Pages automatically, rather than manually posting a message whenever data outage or etl job failure occures.
To do this, I
1. Identified the table that the ETL folks update at the end of every job. This table has a column to say the status of the load (Successful, UnSuccessful) and also a date column to show the most updated load date and timings.
2. Created an Initialization block that would go fetch the most recent loaded date and status of the load values. I set this block to fire every 5 minutes.
3. Created a report with a Date Column and a bogus columns with FX set as the Repository Variable for Load Status. Added filter on the Date as = the repository variable for Load Date.
4. In the Narrative View of this Report, I added the following JavaScript.
In Prefix section:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var curTable = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
In Narrative Section:
var cFlag = "@2";
In Postfix Section:
if (cFlag == "UnSuccessful"){
for (var i = 0; i < curTable.length; i++) {
if (curTable.className == "PageTable") {
curTable[i].style.display = 'none';
/*var curBody = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
var newTable = document.createElement("table");
var newTBody = document.createElement("tbody");
var newRow = document.createElement("tr");
var newCol = document.createElement("td");
var curMessage = document.createTextNode("Data for this dashboard is currently unavailable due to the daily load process." + '\n' + "Sorry for the inconvenience.");
newCol.appendChild(curMessage);
newRow.appendChild(newCol);
newTBody.appendChild(newRow);
newTable.appendChild(newTBody);
curBody.appendChild(newTable); */
alert("Data for this dashboard is currently unavailable due to the daily load process. Please check back shortly." + '\n' + "Sorry for the inconvenience.");
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Note: I originally wanted to post the message on the Dashboard, but there are some issues with IE 7, with appendChild method. But it works fine with FireFox. So I did not wasted any time on Javascript Errors, rather just had an alert message, that basically does the job i need. I mean tell the users about the ETL Status.
5. Finally I added this report in the Dashboard. Key point here is the above report should be added in the Lower Column. I mean if there are six Dashboard COlumns aligned as 2 Columns X 3 Rows, I added the Narrative Report on the 5th or 6th Columns.
When the load status is unsuccesful, the narrative report will hide the Dashboard Sections and shows a message to the users.
Thanks
Sai

Prompt settings being passed between Dashboard Pages - Can this be stopped?
I have a dashboard with 4 pages. Pages 1 and 2 share the exact same prompt, page 3 has its own prompt but within that prompt it has a field that is common with the prompt on pages 1 and 2. Page 4 has its own prompt as well with some fields that are common to the prompts on pages 1 - 3.
All prompts are included in their own section on the dashboard pages. All prompts have scope set to 'Page' in their settings.
If I go to page 1 and enter some values into the prompt and then run the report everything looks good. But if I click on the tab for page 2, all the prompts are carried over from page 1 and the report returns results for those inputs.
Similarly if I run page 3 (which is a completely different prompt) and enter some values and run the report and then click over to page 2, the page 2 prompt uses the values for the common fields from the page 3 prompt.
Ideally, if a user clicks on a new tab I would like it the prompt to be initialized with nothing (especially since I set scope to Page). I think it can be confusing if a completely different prompt has its values carried over to another pages prompt just because they share a field.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
KThe only way to do this is set the Scope of the prompt to Page and not Dashboard ... are you setting any values of the prompted columns in these prompts - if you set a presenataion variable in prompts 1 or 2 then don't use it to preload the the columns on prompts 3 or 4. Curious - what do you have the defaults set to? Report defaults? Specific Value? etc.
Also: I notice you reference the 3rd prompt as being Scoped at Page - what about prompts 1 and 2? All 4 should be scoped at page ...

Fit on screen all dashboard page reports
Hi all!
I'm starting in OBIEE 11g, so I need your help!
Our issue is that we need "resize" all reports that are in Dashboard's pages as "fit on screen" mode. Now, for example, we have 4 analysis in a Dashboard's page but it page has scrolls. So we need to scroll down and right to see all analysis in that page.
There is any way to "resize" all reports and "fit on screen" that Dashboard page? I try to modify Height and Width on Column, Section, and analysis but it doesn't work.
Any idea?
Thanks for your unvaluable time.
Regards,
ArielOk guys, it was solved.
The problem was the Canvas Height and Width in Graph properties. It is set to a default value. It isn't relative, so all other objects get its size. So, I reduce that Height and Width, so all objects get the new size.
Thanks for your time!
Best regards,

OBIEE 11g: Subscribe to Agents through Dashboard page?
Hi all,
I have created a set of agents which would deliver personalized content to subscribing users based on their OBIEE username. The agents work great, however I am stuck at finding a simpler way to allow various users to subscribe to said agents.
The standard subscription method is cumbersome: Go to Catalog, browse to where agents are, Click More, select Subscribe. I don't want my users wandering around through a pretty thick catalog only to subscribe to an agent. Chances are they'll wander off, mess up, fail to subscribe or not even bother to try in the first place. What I would rather do is have them go to a dashboard and click on something to subscribe directly, without caring where the agents are located.
A dodgy workaround I have implemented is to put up a link to an URL which is the catalog location of the agents. Users would click on that link and they will see the list of agents, allowing them to subscribe/unsubscribe. Still, I would like to simplify this further, if possible. Any ideas?Hi All,
I am trying to display ‘help’ section on every dashboard or Create a separate Help Dashboard Page …
Tried using "Link or Image" object option and Uploaded the pdf’s to Help file *(/Shared Folders/Help)* – Let say the PDF Name is Employee_Expenses.pdf
So I am using the URL for link object as
URL= saw.dll?downloadFile&path=%2Fshared%2FHelp%2FEmployee_Expenses.pdf
Image = fmap:Images/help.gif (Do I need to have help.gif in /Shared Folders/Help folder Cause I don’t have it…)
It’s not working – Any Ideas….
Thanks,
Syed

Opening Dashboard Page in New Window While Passing Prompt Values
Hi,
Currently it is not possible to open a dashboard page in a new window AND have the prompt values from a prior page pass to this page. I see one or the other can be accomplished but not both. Is there a way this can be acheived somehow or is there a workaround for this?You are correct. The "Link or Image" object does not pass the dashboard prompt values, though it allows the destination dashboard to be opened up in a window.
Here is a workaround.
1) Place the link in a "Guided Nav. Link" object and set the destination dashboard and desired report. With the prompt set up correctly (i.e., dashboard scope, set to PV, destination report column filtered to receive the PV), the destination report will be filtered on the prompt as desired.
2) I noticed (and maybe this is why you wish the "new window"), there is no "return" link on the destination report. To fix this, in the destination dashboard, add a Text object to the dashboard. In the properties, paste the code below and make sure to check off "Contains HTML markup." This will produce a "Return" button on the dashboard.
<input type="button" value="Return" onclick="history.back();">
Now, when the user selects the prompt and clicks on the link, the prompt is passed to your second dashboard. When the user wishes to return, he/she can click on the "Return" button and return to the primary dashboard.
HTH,
