Multiple dimensions from single logical table

Hi,
I cannot seem to create multiple dimensions based one one single logical table. For example, I have a Time table from which I'd like to create a calendar time dimension and a fiscal time dimension. However, as soon as one dimension is created, I cannot create another dimension from the same logical table.
Is it possible?
Thanks

Jlin,
If I understood your requirement correctly you need to create multiple Hierarchies out of a single Logical Dimension table, this is possibe the base rule for creating a hierarchy is you should have a common starting point( Grand Total Level) and a common ending point( Detail Level), first create this and create sublevels and share the Detail Level as a child. This will allow you to create multiple hiearchies out of a single dimension. One level will have drill down on the Calendar dimension and one one the Fiscal and both will have the common detail key like day key.Hope this helps.

Joining two fact tables with different dimensions into single logical table

Hi Gurus,
I try to accomplish in Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.3.0:
F1 (D1, D2 and D3)
F2 (D1 and D2 and D4)
And we want to build a report F1 F2 D1 D2 D3 D4 to have data for:
F1 that match only for D1-D2-D3
and data for
F2 that match only D1-D2-D4
all that in one row, so D3 and D4 are not common dimensions.
I can only do:
F3 (D1, D2)
F4 (D1, D2 and D4)
And report
F3 F4 D1,D2,D4 (all that in one row, and only D4 is not a common dimension)
Here is the very good example how to accomplish the scenario 1
http://108obiee.blogspot.com/2009/08/joining-two-fact-tables-with-different.html
But looks like it does not work in 11.1.1.3.0
I get
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 14025] No fact table exists at the requested level of detail: [,,Clients,,Day,ROI,,,,EW_Names,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,]. (HY000)
I am sure I set up everything correctly as advised in the blog but it works with only one not a common dimension
Is it a bug in 11.1.1.3.0 or something?
Thanks,
Kate

Thanks for all your replies.
Actually, I've tried the solutions you guys mentioned. Generally speaking, the result should be displayed. However, my scenario is a little bit tricky.
table Y's figures are not the aggregation of table X for D dimension. Instead, table Y's figures include not only D dimension total, but also others (others do not mean A, B, C dimension). For example, table Y stores all food's figure, while table X stores only drink's figure. D dimension is only about drink's detail. In my scenario, other foods' figure is not provided.
So, even if I set D dimension to all/total for table X, table X's result is still not the same as table Y.
Indeed, table Y does not have a column key to join to D dimension's key. So, if I select D dimension and table Y's measures at the same time in BI Answer, result returns no data. Hence, I can't compare table X and table Y's results with selection of D dimension.
Is there any solution to solve this problem?

Multiple Hierarchies from Single Dimension Table in OBIEE-11g?

Is it possible to have Multiple Hierarchies from Single Dimension Table in OBIEE-11g?
Like 1)Year-Qtr-Month-Weeks 2)Year-Month-Days

Hi,
or if your lowest level is the same like
Day->month->year->Total
Day->businessMonth->businessyear->Total
Then yes, it is.
Create the first, then you start to create the second by adding your top(business year) level on the same level as the one you have (year) both under your total.
Then when you would add your second base level, there is a special option for it, something like use other hierarchy level/shared level (sorry can't recall and does not have a connection right now) then you select your existing day level under your businessmonth level.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
D

How to remove the default members of a dimension from the control table?

Hi all,
I am new to hyperion FDM 11.1.1.2.0.0 .
When I navigate to Metadata>Control Tables and try to delete the default memmbers
for the dimension like category and period i got the following error.
Error: Period( 8/31/2009 ) is an active Global or Local Period and cannot be deleted.
Then again i unchecked active checkbox for that dimension from Hyperion Essbase Integration Setup of Workbench Client.
After doing that i got the following error
Error: Unable to retrieve target System Data.
Can anyone tell me how to remove the default members of a dimension from the control table?
Thanks

Create a new record for the table.
Go change the POV to the new record.
Return to the control table and delete the default record.

RE: Accessing multiple Env from single Client-PC

Look in the "System Management Guide" under connected environments page
72. This will allow services in your primary environment to find
services in your connected environment. However, there is a bug
reported on this feature which is fixed in 2F4 for the HP and H1 for all
other servers. The following is from Forte:
The connected environments bug that was fixed in 2F4 is #24282. The
problem
was in the nodemgr/name server source code and caused the following to
occur:
Service1 is in connected envs A and B.
Client has env A as primary, B as secondary.
Envmgr A dies before the client has ever made a call to Service1.
Afer env A is gone, client makes a call to Service1 which causes Envmgr
B to
seg fault.
You should upgrade your node manager/env manager nodes to 2F4. The 2F2
development and runtime clients are fully compatible with 2F4 servers.

Subject: Accessing multiple Env from single Client-PC
Hi, All!
Is there anybody has any idea to access multiple environments from
single client-PC? I have to have multiple environments because each
environment resides geographically remote node and network bandwidth,
reliability are not good enough to include all the systems into single
environment.
Using Control Panel for doing this is not easy for those who are not
familiar with Windows. The end-user tend to use just single application
to access all necessary services.
I could consider two option to doing this:
1. Make some DOS batch command file to switch different environment
like, copying back/forward between environment repositories and
set up forte.ini for changing FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. After then, invoke
proper client partition(ftexec).
2. Duplicate necessary services among each environment.
But, these two options have many drawbacks in terms of system
management(option 1), performance(option 2) and others.
Has anybody good idea to implement this? Any suggestion would be
appreciated.

Can we call multiple Smartforms from single Driver Prog?

Hi all,
Can we call multiple smartforms from single Driver Program. Here Driver program is custom Program.
I want to give Print Parameter only once and output should get printed one after the another smartform in same order of smarforms were called.
If yes, then how?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do this in your Smartform driver program.
Each time you call you Smartform function module you will need to change the values in structure OUTPUT_OPTIONS slightly.
On the first call set TDNEWID to X.
After this, set it to space
On the last form set TDFINAL to X.
This will put all of the output into one spool request, in the order they are called in the program.
Regards,
Nick

Mask multiple movieclips from single mask

Hi,
h have big movieclip 450X350 and there are many small thumbnails i need to mask those from big movieclip, I need to animate those so that i can't put those in a single movieclip, Is it possible to mask multiple movieclips from single movieclip...?

If you want to mask them using Actionscript then you should be able to place them inside a movieclip/sprite as separate animations/movieclips and then assign the mask to the container.
You can mask multiple layers under one layer if you use the timeline

Hi,,
I have implemented the logic in end routine and it still reads only the first row.
I am loading only PRODH1 and PROD2 but now I want to get all values of PRODH3 from the master data table.
The first 5 values are PRODH1 and first 10 values belongs to PRODH2.
Whenever PRODH2 = 1000011000 in source I should get the following values
10000110001110
10000110001120
10000110001130
I have multiple rows of 1000011000 so my result should be
1000011000               10000110001110
1000011000               10000110001120

wa like line of ITAB.
data rp type _ty_s_TG_1.
Select * from /BI0/PPROD_HIER INTO table itab where /BIC/ZPRODHTAS = 3.
LOOP AT RESULT_PACKAGE INTO rp.
read table itab into wa with key PROD_HIER(5) = rp-PRODH1.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.

Multiple Logical Table Sources vs Single Logical Table Source

OBIEE 11g. I am totally confused. Can someone help me with the following for me.
I have seen logical table sources being used in 2 ways. I have a 2 sources tables: CUSTOMER & ADDRESS. In physical layer these 2 tables are linked by CUSTOMER _ID in a 1:M relationship. i.e. A customer can have many addresses.
Scenario # 1: In BMM the two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 2 different logical table sources which are CUSTOMER & ADDRESS.
Scenario # 2: In BMM the two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 1 logical table source called CUSTOMER only.
What is the difference between the above 2 scenarios and which one is better to use when creating the logical table source.
Regards.

Scenario # 1: In BMM the two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 2 different logical table sources which are CUSTOMER & ADDRESS.
-->In this case; based on the columns select source is defined in the physical query
possible case would be CUSTOMER , ADDRESS, and CUSTOMER & ADDRESS
-->Used in DE-normalized scenarios
--> BI uses intelligence based on content tab settings
Scenario # 2: In BMM the two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 1 logical table source called CUSTOMER only.
-->In this case; CUSTOMER properties->General tab used both CUSTOMER & ADDRESS, in your physical query both tables present irrespective of column selection
-->Used in normalized scenarios
-->Forcing BI to follow our way, since we wont set content tab settings
Hope this helps

Synching multiple dimensions from a prompt

Hi, I'm running in to a somewhat off-the-wall question that I haven't been able to find an answer to. In the data for one of our dashboards, the data has multiple instances of an "org" dimension that mean slightly different things. The dashboard also contains some reports that naturally use one of the org dimensions, and other tabs that naturally use the other org dimension.
My users are asking that I somehow "synchronize" the orgs - i.e. if I choose Org ABC on one dashboard page, that it carries over to the other dashboard pages. This works fine for the reports that use the same "org" dimension, but when you switch to a tab that has the other org dimension, it naturally isn't being limited to the same set of orgs from the previous page.
Is there a way to do this? I've tried using presentation variables, but I'm unable to get multiple orgs to work properly (all of these prompts need to enable multiple selections).
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Scott

How to create af:tree from single database Table

Hi,
i want to create tree Like this: and also we can add node anywhere.
Parent01
----|parent01-child01
--------|parent01-child01-child01
--------|parent01-child01-child02
-------------|parent01-child01-child02-child01
Parent02
----|parent02-child01
----|parent02-child02
--------|parent02-child02-child01
and for this i have created Table like this :
Table name Treetable
NODEID     NUMBER(38,0) --> Primary Key
NODENAME     VARCHAR2(50 BYTE) --> This is the name will display as a node
DESCRIPTION     VARCHAR2(255 BYTE)
ROOTIND     CHAR(1 BYTE) --> to decide root node
SEQUENCENO     NUMBER(38,0)     --> order to display node
PARENTKEY     NUMBER(38,0) -->FK (refering to NODEID(PK) of this table)
But when i am creating tree, its showing root node for each row in the table. but my requirement is: The Row marked as ROOTIND='Y' , show that row only as Root (Example in above tree:Parent01 & Parent02 )
any help highly appreciated :)

2 facts with different dimensions in 1 logical table

hello,
im trying to accomplish the set up as described per blog:
http://108obiee.blogspot.com/2009/08/joining-two-fact-tables-with-different.html
i.e. i have 2 facts, F1: D1 ; F2: D1,D2,D3;
i followed the instructions and all seem to be working fine;
however: when i put the total on the report in Answers: D1,D2, F1, F2 then the measures from F1 that are repeated every row for D2 are being added , like regular sum on the column; this is not correct;
the only correct result i can get if manually i change the Aggregation Rule to :Server Complex Aggregate on all F1 measures;
id like to ask if this is a bug of this OBI version? 10.1.3.2
i wish not to instruct my users to change the aggregation rule; id like to have the set up via rpd such, that they dont have to manipulate the aggregation rules;
did anyone got the above working with correct totals without changing the aggregation rule?
if so, id appreciate any tips on how to achieve that
thanks
rgds

Basically, you need to :
* create your physical schema with the relationship
* drag and drop your Forecast Facts measure in the same logical table than your sales fact
* define your Forecast measure as level based measure (logical column/levels/properties) with the grain of the forecast table

Subject Area not showing for Single Logical Table Repository Schema

Hi
I'm trying to create a very simple OBIEE repository schema for a sales proof of concept. The schema consits of a single physical table, single BMM (logical) table and a single presentation table.
I have created all the layers OK. However, when I check for global consistancy i get an error message 'Logical table SALES_POC does not join to any other logical table'. Now i understand this error, but in this case this is how the design is intended. However, if ignore this error i'm not seeing the new subject area after bouncing BI server & BI presentation services.
Anyone know a way round this, or do i need to have at least 2 logical tables?
Thanks
James

Yes I think RPD is in the correct folder & NQSConfig.INI is set correctly.
RPD is called ethreeCustomv1.RPD & saved in /ora/biee/10.1.3.4/OracleBI/server/Repository
NQSConfig.INI has the following definition:
[ REPOSITORY ]
BIEE = ethreeCustomv1.rpd, DEFAULT;
[ CACHE ]
ENABLE = NO;
