MDX - metadata query

Hi,
Is it possible to use MDX to query the outline and generate a mapping file that returns a list of members and its attribute in a separate column.
I tried to use the DIMENSION PROPERTIES but the output is not really what I expect.
For example:
SELECT
[CUSTOMER].Levels(0).Members DIMENSION PROPERTIES [CUSTOMER].[CUSTOMER SALES REP] ON ROWS,
{[ACCOUNT].[A2_01]} ON COLUMNS
from [FCRSCNPL.PL]
returns something like:
(AMC332 - AMP SHANGHAI LTD.) | (CUSTOMER SALES REP = SR EQ, type: STRING, )
Not really what I have in mind, which should be something like:
AMC332 SR EQ
Note that AMC332 is the member name and AMC332 - AMP SHANGHAI LTD. is the alias
Thanks in advance,
Regis

I did the same thing. I think what we all have accidentally done was select a dimension that we wanted to hide then went to the properties window to set the Visible property. What I just noticed is that if you click on on one of the dimensions while on the Cube Structure tab the properties window does not change to the dimension and the Visible property on the cube gets set to false accidentally. At least that how I ended up doing it. I hope this helps someone else realize how it happened to them.

ODI metadata query to find source and Target table for Interface

Hi Experts,
Client is migrating there source from EBS 11.5.10 to R12. They are in ODI BIApps. 7952 version.Since,all there mappings are customized they are not bothering about support from Oracle as far as BIApps is concerned.
Now,we need to know how many ODI mappings will be impacted when source EBS is migrating from 11.5.10 to R12 and so that we can only target those mappings accordingly.
So,please provide me with below inputs:
1) Any metadata query which will give me the source table and target table information's against an interface even-if the main interface source is another interface.
2) What are the other stuffs I need to look from point of view of mapping changes when the source is upgrading.e.g. only source table change is enough or I need to look into other stuffs.I feel,it is boiling down to create a separate source adapter for R12.

Snehotosh

Cant use dynamic constant for measure MDX SSRS query

I am trying to write a dynamic MDX query in SSRS. I was sucessful with the groups being dynamic,
but the measures are not working as they do in SQL Mgmnt Studio. For example, this text
is not working (the data set is invalid after when executed):
="WITH "
+" member [Measures].[Measure1] AS "+iif(Instr(Join(Parameters!ColumnValues.Label,","),"01") > 0,Parameters!ColumnValues.Value(0),"0")
So if ColumnValue "01" was not selected measure1 should just be "0".
It works ok if you just hard code : "member [Measures].[Measure1] AS 0", but fails when used in the IIF().
Anyone see the problem with this?
Thank You

Hi billywinter,
You issue can be caused by the Parameters!ColumnValues.Value(0) will return the integer value which missing the "", so it will cause the issue.
Please modify the query like below to have a test:
="WITH "
+" member [Measures].[Measure1] AS "+iif(Instr(Join(Parameters!ColumnValues.Label,","),"01")
> 0,CStr(Parameters!ColumnValues.Value(0)),"0")
If you still got some issue, please try to provide the error message to help us better analysis about the issue.
Any problem, please feel free to ask.

Develop Metadata query

Can someone help me as I am now totally confused about metadata. I thought I understood about jpg files. In my catalog settings I have ticked "Include develop settings in metadata inside jpeg"
In this test, I simply changed the tint setting dramtically to make an obvious change to the image. I then closed Lightroom. I then looked at the image in various progs (inc Camera Raw) and none of them show the Green colour. If I re-import into Lightroom, it shows its "normal" colours.
So my understanding that the jpg was updated in real time was completely wrong. Where am I going wrong please.
Thanks

As soon as you pointed out this answer, it was blindingly obvious.
Many thanks for helping a poor idiot to read the screen. I even checked all this when I too the screen grab!!!!!!
Thanks again

Need help in MDX query

Hi All
I am new to MDX language and need a MDX functions/query on the cube to get the required output, Given below is the scenario with the data.
I am maintaining the data in a table in dataMart with given structure. We have the data at day and weekly in a single table with granularity indicator and count is the measure group column. While loading the data in to mart table we are populaiting the week
Key from week table and Month key from month table and joining in the cube.
we need to calculate the inventory for a particular month. If a user selects a particular month the output would be count = 30 as a measure called Closed and count = 16 as a measure value called Open.
Need a MDX query to get output.

Hi Venkatesh,
According to your description, you need to count the members with conditions in a particular month, right?
In MDX, we can achieve the requirement by using Count and Filter function, I have tested it on AdventureWorks cube, the sample query below is for you reference.
with member [ConditionalCount]
as
count(filter([Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2].children,[Measures].[Internet Order Count]>50))
select {[Measures].[Internet Order Count],[ConditionalCount]} on 0,
[Date].[Calendar].[Date].members on 1
from
(select [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2] on 0 from
[Adventure Works]
Reference

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms146037.aspx
If this is not what you want, please elaborate your requirement, such as the detail structure of your cube, so that we can make further analysis.

When using TODATE function MDX query is not correctly generated

Essbase 9.3.1.2 and OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1.
When using TODATE function MDX query is not correctly generated.
This leads to unexpected values not only on cumulative columns in report (generated with TODATE), but also other columns (calculated with AGO function or directly read from cube) have incorrect values.
The problem occurs when you filter on a column that is not in the select list. If you filter on just one level of dimension, results are fine. You can filter on multiple dimensions as long as you filter on just one level of each dimension.
If you filter on two or more levels of one dimension, than results are not correct. In some cases results for TODATE column are all zeros, in some cases it is a random value returned by Essbase (same random value for all rows of that column), and in some cases BI Server returns an error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. Essbase Error: Network error [10054]: Cannot Send Data (HY000).
Here is generated MDX code:
With
set [Grupe proizvoda2] as '{[Grupe proizvoda].[N4]}'
set [Grupe proizvoda4] as 'Generate([Grupe proizvoda2], Descendants([Grupe proizvoda].currentmember, [Grupe proizvoda].Generations(4), leaves))'
set [Segmentacija2] as '{[Segmentacija].[RETAIL]}'
set [Segmentacija4] as 'Filter(Generate({[Segmentacija2]}, Descendants([Segmentacija].currentmember, [Segmentacija].Generations(4),SELF), ALL), ([Segmentacija].CurrentMember IS [Segmentacija].[AFFLUENT]))'
set [Vrijeme3] as '{[Vrijeme].[MJESEC_4_2009]}'
member [Segmentacija].[SegmentacijaCustomGroup]as 'Sum([Segmentacija4])', SOLVE_ORDER = AGGREGATION_SOLVEORDER
member [Accounts].[MS1] as '(ParallelPeriod([Vrijeme].[Gen3,Vrijeme],2,[Vrijeme].currentmember), [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
member [Accounts].[MS2] as '(ParallelPeriod([Vrijeme].[Gen3,Vrijeme],1,[Vrijeme].currentmember), [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
member [Accounts].[MS3] as 'AGGREGATE({PeriodsToDate([Vrijeme].[Gen2,Vrijeme],[Vrijeme].currentmember)}, [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
select
{ [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala],
[Accounts].[MS1],
[Accounts].[MS2],
[Accounts].[MS3]
} on columns,
NON EMPTY {crossjoin ({[Grupe proizvoda4]},{[Vrijeme3]})} properties ANCESTOR_NAMES, GEN_NUMBER on rows
from [NISE.NISE]
where ([Segmentacija].[SegmentacijaCustomGroup])
If you remove part with TODATE function, the results are fine. If you leave TODATE function, OBIEE returns an error mentioned above. If you manually modify variable SOLVE_ORDER and set value to, for example, 100 instead of AGGREGATION_SOLVEORDER, results are OK.
In all cases when this variable was modified in generated MDX, and query manually executed on Essabse, results were OK. This variable seems to be the possible problem.

Crystal Report on BW BEx Query via MDX in SAP Portal

Hi!
We need to display a CR in the Portal. The CR is based on a MDx BW Query. To create and display the report is no problem. Even saving back to BW is working fine.
But how do we get this CR displayed in the EP?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Should only the BO SAP Integration Kit iViews / URL iViews be used and are the Crystal Report iViews (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/36/d4a94076b63713e10000000a155106/frameset.htm) obsolete?
Yes as the Crystal Report iView are based on an older version
If we export the Crystal reports to SAP BW, is it possible to call them with BEx iViews like the xCelsius reports? (Like with DASHBOARD=<report name> for xCelsius)
From where can we get the Crystal Report ID, if we export them to SAP BW?
You should use the BusinessObjects Integration Kit iView template for Crystal REports and the ID can be retrieved from the CMC

Controlling meta data returned by an MDX query

Hello,
I'm retrieving results from Analysis Services then processing them further in SQL via OpenQuery. So I have a query of the form "select * from OpenQuery(LinkedServer, '<mdx>')
The query works fine, but because I have a dimension hierarchy with a seven levels on rows, the result set contains seven columns which I don't need, one column for each level in the hierarchy.
I can ignore them using the syntax "WITH CTE ([1],[2]...) as (<query>) ...", so this doesn't interfere with functionality.
However, I'm wondering if there is some syntax in MDX which will prevent those columns from being returned at all. I'm guessing that regardless of whether they are selected in SQL, that data still has to be processed. The performance impact of this isn't
noticeable on any single query, but it seems like for many queries with many rows it would add up. Is it possible to control the meta data that an MDX result set contains?
Thank you!

Hi vercinegetorix,
When we run MDX query by using OPENQUERY having hierarchy, we will get extra columns describing the values of each hierarchy level in different columns. This behavior is by design and we can't change that.
In addition, we may concern the attribute unique name a little long. The easiest way to remove them is to use an alias. For detail information, please refer to the article below:

Is it possible to implement Recursive CTE query in MDX to Cube dataset?

I have data with hierarchical relationship like this:
Release -> Features -> PBI/Bugs -> Tasks/Test Case. I have two datasets Work Item and Work Item Linked to get this hierarchical information.
The data looks like this:
Something like if I pass a Release ID, I need to get all the children and sub-children also. Basically a report like this:
I did this by implementing a recursive CTE query with warehouse tables. But it takes more time to load. SO trying to find the possibility using MDX and querying the cube datasets

Hello,
There is nothing stopping you from querying the cache to see what is in it. However, this will only take into account items that are already in the cache. If you need a query to return items that are potentially not in the cache, you need to query the database, have the query return keys, and then request those keys through Coherence - which will in turn pull the items from the database as needed.

Show last data 0 in an Input-ready query - Bex

Hi experts,
I have an Input-ready query working ok with IP (Integrated Planning).
The infocube contains information about date/material/stock_quantity (via DTP, date and material, and real-time introduced stock-quantity), the user (via Bex) only introduce the stock quantity.
This is an example of the real-time cube data:
Date Material Quantity
02/03/2011 M1 1000 (input via Input-ready-query)
03/03/2011 M1 0 (planned via DTP)
04/03/2011 M1 0 (planned via DTP)
05/03/2011 M1 200 (input via Input-ready-query)
06/03/2011 M1 50 (input via Input-ready-query)
07/03/2011 M1 0 (planned via DTP)
I want to create a query-workwook that displays: if stock_quant.=0, show the last value <>0 of this material, if stock_quant<>0 it's ok:
Example workbook desired,
02/03/2011 M1 1000
03/03/2011 M1 1000
04/03/2011 M1 1000
05/03/2011 M1 200
06/03/2011 M1 50
07/03/2011 M1 50
Do you know how could I show it via Bex-workbook or other loading way ?
Thanks!!

Hi Marcel,
an idea could be to create a virtual key figure and then to use it in the desired bex query. You will need also a way to create an mdx (pre-) query on the fly in order to have the quantity history of the material(s). This is a better approach than reading directly the infocube.
Take a look at the how to guide "How to ... Realize summarized display of stock values on storage location level". The specific scenario is quite similar with your own requirements. You can find the document on URL http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/eb9faa90-0201-0010-cc9c-cd2e6c0a549a
