Need a measure variable based on dimension

Dear Experts,
I need a variable based on dimension.This should gives the values from 1 to n based on dimension.
Suppose i have a column "Wage type".If it has 10 rows,Then for first one it should be 1 and second one it should be 2 and so on.I want to implement break for this dimension,even though the variable should give same values as i mentioned above.
I try to use RowIndex and Count functions.But i couldnt get my requirement.
I want to use this values in Xcelsius.
I hope you can understand issue.
Regards
Venkat

Hi,
I worked on the same issue, in my case result in following format
year........count...month......revenue
2001........ 1........ jan............100
.................2.........feb............200
.................3......... mar...........300
.................4......... apr............400
2002.........1...........jan..........500
.................2..........feb...........600
.................3..........mar..........700
If you are expecting the same format, first break the report deportment wise. Create the variable count with bellow formula.
=RunningCount([Month];Break)

Shahin.

In SSRS, aggregate measure based on dimension value

I am writing an SSRS 2012 report whose data source is an SSAS cube. In one table of this report, I am using a very simple data set with one dimension (Category) and one measure (Sales). The dimension has 4 members, A B C D. For the purposes of this
report table, I want to show the sum of sales for A, the sum of sales for C, and the sum of sales for B and D combined. I then want to show each of these 3 values as a percent of the total (sum of A B C D).
The data set looks like this:
CATEGORY SALES
A                10000
B                14000
C                 8000
D                 8000
The resulting report table should look like this:
CATEGORY SALES % OF TOTAL
A                10,000      25.0
B+D            22,000      55.0
C                 8,000       20.0
TOTAL         40,000

Hi ,
As you mentioned you need such aggregation in SSRS and you are using SSAS datasource.
so you can achieve this using MDX Query.
I have done this in my environment . I took below for achieving this
Dimension : Category
Relationship : There should be Facttable relationship with Dimension table Category.
Measure : Unit Price (in your case sale)
Please find below solution using MDX Query.
Please share if you have any doubt.
Thanks

Simple in line frequency counter? Need to measure 48hz variable resistor

Confused.
Been searching all day. Is there a simple way to measure if I've correctly adjusted a variable resistor from 50hz to 48hz?
Below is the email to me from Russia, explaining how to adjust the variable resistor.
This is variable resistor adjust a speed of motor.
But, you need frequency measuring device for check a value of speed.
You can connect measuring device to Pilot signal socket .
50 hz signal = 25 fps.
48 Hz signal = 24 fps.
Other idea, you can take frequency from resistor R6 on PCb.
25 fps = 500 Hz
24 fps = 480 Hz.

Hi Djwerk,
This question might be better answered in the specific hardware forums if you are using an NI Data Acquisition Device or in the LabVIEW forums if this is strictly a software question. Could you give me some more information about the harware you are using/want to use to make this measurement?
As a general solution, you could use a multimeter to simply measure the resistance as you change it. If you are applying a known current, you could measure the voltage across the resistor and calculate the resistance. If you want to directly measure the frequency, you could input an analog voltage signal into a DAQ card and use a Fast Fourier Transform in software to calculate the frequency of the signal.

Need help with configuring setup cost as variable based on quantity

Hello,
I am brand new to PP and my client has inquiry as to how they can make the setup costs variable based on the production quantity. They already have the machine and labor working correctly, so I compared the formulas for machine and labor time with that of the formula for setup time and they are not the same (in fact, setup time does not have any formula). Do I simply need to create a formula for this or are there multiple other steps? If anyone can give instruction on how to set this up it would be of great help.
Thanks,
MH

Check in the Work Center, tab Costing where Setup Time should have a formula using operation quantity / base quantity as ratio.
Setup time should be included as parameter in the standard value key.
The formula in the Capacity Tab would have only effect on the capacity evaluation, but no costs impact.

OBI EE 10g: Bridge tables and Based on Dimensions Aggregation

hi experts,
i am working on OBI EE 10 g (10.1.3.4)
The BM&M layer consist of:
1) Logical fact table "Sale_Indicators"
Fields: SALE_ID (PK, FK),
D1_ID (FK),
D2_ID (FK),
Indicator1 (measure, level of granularity: SALE_ID),
Indicator2 (measure, level of granularity: SALE_ID),
Indicator3 (measure, level of granularity: SALE_ID)
2) Logical dimension table
"Sales" (PK: SALE_ID),
"D1" (PK: D1_ID),
"D2" (PK: D2_ID),
"Customers" (PK: SALE_ID, CUST_ID) - bridge table!
"Products" (PK: SALE_ID, PROD_ID) - bridge table!
3) Dimensions: SalesDim, D1Dim, D2Dim, CustomersDim, ProductsDim
If fact table is joined with bridge table, the number of rows in fact table is multiplied, for example:
D1_ID | SALE_ID | CUST_ID | Indicator1
777 | 1 | 14 | 10
777 | 1 | 17 | 10
777 | 2 | 15 | 12
888 | 3 | 16 | 20
888 | 3 | 17 | 20
888 | 4 | 19 | 30
I need to get report:
D1_ID | Indicator1 (SUM)
777 | 22
888 | 50
and with filter by customer, for example (CUST_ID = 17):
D1_ID | Indicator1 (SUM)
777 | 10
888 | 20
i am trying to use "based on dimension" aggregation, for example (Indicator1):
Dimension Formula
CustomersDim MIN
ProductsDim MIN
Others SUM
The generated physical SQL performs joining EVERY dimension to the fact table, even though they are not included in the final result set.
Is there any way to tweak logical or physical model in order to eliminate excessive joins?
Thanks in advance!

I found this text on the help, but I didn't understand, because when I check the "based on dimensions" check box, I can choose aggregation rules for each dimension, not only the time dimension.
Also, I found in the help menu:
"In the Aggregation tab, select the Based on dimensions check box.
The Browse dialog box automatically opens.
In the Browse dialog box, click New, select a dimension over which you want to aggregate, and then click OK.
In the Aggregation tab, from the Formula drop-down list, select a rule."
I did the same steps suggested by the text above, but it didn't work.

Having to recreate all detail variables to measure variables

Why am I having to recreate all my variables to a measure variable in order for them to show in my table? (New to WEBI)

I assume you have multiple queries in your report. Have you merged common dimensions between your two queries? If you merge on enough common objects you should be able to use other objects from you queries with each other.
However you may still get synchronisation errors, if so you will need to do what you are doing and create them as measures, or define them as a detail of a merged dimension.

How to get the current month for a variable based on info object 0FISCPER3

Hie Gurus
I am working on the financial reports i am failing to derive the Current month from the variable based on infobject 0FISCPER3 PERIOD .
I would also like to get the same month from the prevoius year. Any ideas?

If I understood correctly, you need in your repot
Current Month Plan This year || YTD Plan This Year || Current Month Plan Last Year || YTD Plan Last Year
Your variable 0I_FISCPER3 must be on the object 0FISCPER3 which is nothing but just the Fiscal Period. This variable is a user entry mandatory Interval variable.
if you are entering a range in the input screen for this variable, you will get cumulative values. If you just need to get the value for a month in first column your report, you will have to create another variable of type Customer Exit which will read the "To value" entered for the variable 0I_FISCPER3 and columns for Current Month should be restricted on this variable.
if you are entering a single value in the selection screen of this variable, current month column should be restricted on this variable with "Equal To" operation and YTD colmns should be restricted to "Less Than Equal to" operator with this variable.
0FISCPER3 just have posting period and not year, so you will have to use varialbes for 0FISCYEAR separately.
Please let us know if it helps or if you are using some other variable based on 0FISCPER3 or 0FISCPER.

Gaurav

Measure divided by Detail in a Measure Variable

Hey Guys,
I have a measure variable in WEBI report. When i use variable in a table, i get a #Multivalue error in some of the cells.
When i saw the formula for the measure variable, it was something like this.
Variable_Name=Round(([Measure Object]/[Detail Object]);2)
I was thinking whether this formula is right logically. I think we cannot divide a Detail object or vice versa.
Please share your thoughts on this and the error also.
BOXI R3.1
SQL Server
Thanks
Shreyas

A detail has an assumed 1:1 relationship with its owning dimension. If someone has ignored this rule and tried to get round a merged dimension which they logically shouldn't then you'll be stuck with it.
Measure/Measure is the logical option
Measure/Dimension is fine too. Such a scenario would be Total Sales/Unit Price to get Quantity (not that you'd do that, you'd bring Quantity in from the query but it can be done.
The definition of the detail would be useful in this instance together with understanding which queries are from which query and how you get get your solution.

How to determine the length of variable based on the character contents

Hi Experts,
I need to determine the length of variable based on the character contents I am looking for.
Example;
lv = 'FENCE - Construction bond'
Where I need to know the exact field length of 'FENCE -'.
It's possible that variable will have different values in different lengths.
Thanks.
Kath

Kathy Amion ,
hello Will you please elaborate ...!
The suggestion for your proble as i understood it is you will have to split the string at seperator '-' in two say variable name and conten. and then you will calculate the length of the VARIable name by using string function.

Aggreation Based on Dimensions - Aggregation rule: Evaluate_Aggr

Hello Experts,
Can any of you explain to me how do you use the Logical Column Aggregation based on dimensions?. If you can set up a simple example would be great. Also, what is the definition of the aggregation rule : Evaluate_Aggr?, please give a simple example
Thanks for your time
Pablo.

And it's not the same than a level based measure :
The definition of a level based measure :

Based on Dimension Aggregation method - OBIEE 11G

Hi,
I have a fact table with one measure value and 3 dimensions (Time, Issue, status). Fact table is loaded monthly data for different issues and with status and a corresponding value.
I want my report to show always issues that is latest of that period and then status of the same.
Lets say:
Fact table has data like this:
31/Jan/2011 - Issue1 - Open - 10
28/Feb/2011 - Issue1 - WIP - 20
31/Mar/2011 - Issue1 - WIP - 30
30/Apr/2011 - Issue1 -WIP - 40
31/May/2011 - Issue1 -Closed - 50
31/May/2011 - Issue2 -Open - 60
31/May/2011 - Issue3 - Open - 20
Now I want to see the report by status and value and it should show me the latest of that time period.
For Quarter1 :
WIP - 30
For Quarter2:
Open - 80
Closed - 50
If I take Year then it should show me :
2011 - Open - 80
2011 - Closed - 50
I tried using aggregation "Based on dimension" option in BMM layer and put Others - Sum() and LAST against time dimension.
But in that case it is giving me the results by status what is latest for the time period. So it is ding sum by other dimension first and then applying LAST method.
In that case result of Quarter -1 will be :
Open - 10
WIP - 30
If I can change the order of aggregation method like first apply LAST method and then do sum then I think desired result will come. But I am not able to change the order.
Is there any other of doing this solution?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
There will be multiple records for an entire month as there are many issues. For a particular Issue it will be one with one particular status for a particular month.
The join is based on the date colum of fact table and the dimension table.

Manipulating custom measure variable inside a line chart

Hie Guys,
I have a line chart in my report that contains 2 custom measure variables & 1 measure object from the Universe in the Y axis and one dimension object - "Month" in the X axis.
Formula for the custom measure variables are -
If [Month] = "Jan" Then 45
ElseIf [Month] = "Feb" Then 65
ElseIf [Month] = "Mar" Then 88
And so on..........
Now, I have an input control in the report for "Project Type" (Development & Improvement)
I want the chart to behave as described below.
If (Project Type = "Development") Then only display measure object 1 in the chart
If (Project Type = "Improvement") Then only display measure object 2 in the chart.
Right now, the input controls are displaying all measure objects in the chart when I click on them.
Is there a way I can get the above mentioned functionality in my report? I am using Business Objects 4.0 SP6.
Could anyone please help me solve the problem? Thanks.

Hi,
Add Two Line Charts in Report one with [Measure Object 1]
& another with [Measure Object 2] .
Now Create Variable for User Selection .
Selection = ReportFilter([Project Type])
Now in Hide When Property of chart (Right Click on Chart --> Format Chart )

Based on dimension aggregation

I have a fact table with 2 sources. One of these sources has only one measure and I am having problems with it.
This measure must use based on dimension aggregation, but it don't work. When I set this option, the measure shows a blank value in Answers, but when I switch to a default aggregation rule (not based on dimension), like sum or max, the value is shown correctly in Answers.
My doubt is: is it necessary any other configuration on dimensions or fact tables in order to use based on dimensions aggregation? I just change the value in the aggregation tab of the measure, is there any other step necessary?
Thanks

I found this text on the help, but I didn't understand, because when I check the "based on dimensions" check box, I can choose aggregation rules for each dimension, not only the time dimension.
Also, I found in the help menu:
