Not able to pass multi values from prompts to Bi Publisher 11g

I am using a choice list in dashboard prompt with default value:"All Column values" and set to a presentation variable:"presvar
In BIP 11G data model,in where clause i am writing it as:
where tablename.colname in (:presvar)
This is working only when i select single value in prompt ,if i select multi values in dashboard prompt it is not fetching me exact results.It is throwing error:"Invalid parameters"
Kindly help if someone has faced the situation
Version:11.1.6.2

This is a bug:

I have a create a type in one package spec(Globally), now i am using the same type in another package.Simply i am calling the first package and try to store the value in Type and use the same type in second package.
Why?
1. Why aren't you just using SQL to do the work?
2. Why don't you just open a CURSOR and pass that instead?
BULK COLLECT INTO t_aa_derive;
3. Why aren't you using a LIMIT clause? Are you sure that only a very small number of rows will be queried?
4. Why aren't you using a PIPELINED function instead of passing a collection?
Using collections with potentially unlimited numbers of rows is not scalable. Also, using collections can be more difficult for 'data consumers' to work with than if you just use a CURSOR or PIPELINED function.
Make sure you are using the proper architecture so that your code is both modular, scalable and easy to use.

Not able to get the values from screen field?

hello
i am using MIRO and there is a screen name withholding tax and from there i want to retreive the withholding tax code before saving so that i can do some validations on it but how can i retrieve the values.
when i press f1 there it shows structure not the table and structure contains no value so please help me in this so that i can retreive that value during run time
thank you

Hi Vikas,
you can use this badi MRM_WT_SPLIT_UPDATE, the method will be WHTAX_SPLIT_UPDATE
in this badi please see the importing and exporting parameters, you will get the values of withholding tax code as TE_RBWS in export parameters.
Please search in google or SCN you will get how to use it.

How to pass a value from the report to a form ( BIT OF URGENT ).

Hi,
I had created a "Form on a Table with Report" on the report I had remove the edit link and set one of the column feilds that functionality. Now I want to know how to pass that value that is clicked ( having hyper link ) on to the form where it runs a SQL query and then displays the reuslts on the form.
Illustrating with an example.
I am having these following columns on the report ( these are the results for the join statement )
JOBNUM JOBNAME DEPTNUMBER SAL EMPNO LNAME FNAME
In the above JOBNUM is having Hyper link as I removed the edit image.
Now this is area I am having problem. When the user clicked on the JOBNUM then on form it should display 20 other columns( pulled from 5 other tables ) which are related to that particualr JOBNUM.
Anybody give me a solution in which area I have to include my SQL statement and how to pass that selected value to that SQL statement.
Cheers,
Krishna

Hi Ron,
I am doing exaclty what you have suggested me but no luck. I started changing the DEMO_CUSTOMERS application to my requirements.The report is working fine and on the report I have created a page attribute to the Hyper linked column and linked that to the page 2 and assign that attribute with #JOBNUM#.
I am able to pass that value on to form when I click on the JOBNUM. But the problem is I am not able to pass that value into the SQL query so that my query pulls 20+ columns on to the Form ( which is second page ).
Small clarification... On the form region it is said FORM NAME and type is HTML is that is the way the APEX was designed or does it need to say region type as FORM.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Cheers,
Krishna.

Passing integer value in prompt

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to pass a smallint datatype value (ex: 2000) from a page prompt to a filter. When I try to view the result, I am getting an error;
Error getting drill information: SELECT C1, C2, FROM SH WHERE C1 = variable1
Odbc driver returning an error (SQLExecDriverW).
State: HY000. Code: 10058....
Unresolved column: "variable1".(HY000)
Note: I tried CAST(C1 as INT) for the column formula, but it didn't help.
But, I tried modifying the prompt column with non-integer, like Product Name, and pass the variable, the value is passed to the filter column Product Name and it worked.
My goal is to pass a presentation variable(integer) and apply an expression to the variable (variable1 - 1) and use both the variable values for my filter between condition.
Simply, I am looking for how to pass integer from prompt to filter and apply expression to the passed variable.
Hope you guys will help me in solving this issue.
Thanks,
Tom.

Hi,
Can someone help in correcting the syntax that applied on the filter: cast(@{variable1} as int). I tried lot of ways.
Passing a value from prompt and convert it to integer at filter end.
I am trying to implement SQL Expression for filter as
*cast(@{variable1} as int) - 1*
Thanks.

Passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard to BIP report

It is possibile passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard prompt to BI Publisher integrated report? (BIP report has a DB data source (not a answers))
Thank you
R.

Hi Rajkm,
In order to pass a multi-value parameter through the Reporting Services Web services, you need to define the same numbers of ParameterValue objects as the number of the values of the multi-value parameter being past into the report. The Name property
of these ParameterValue objects must be specified same to the parameter name.
I found a good FAQ article for this scenario:
How do I pass a multi-value parameter into a report with Reporting Services Web service API?:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlforum/archive/2010/12/21/faq-how-do-i-pass-a-multi-value-parameter-into-a-report-with-sql-server-reporting-services-ssrs-web-services-api.aspx
Hope this helps.

SSAS report action to pass multi-value list of dimention key values to a SSRS report parameter

This was originally posted on StackOverflow and suggested I try here as well.
I want to create a report action in an SSAS OLAP cube that generates a list of formatted values to pass into an SSRS report parameter that accepts a multi-valued parameter list. This would be applied at the
cell level in the SSAS action. I have found a solution that gets me most of the way:
How to Pass Multiple Values from an SSAS Report Drill Through Action to an SSRS Multi-Value Parameter, but not quite. The action does appear in Excel and works
if I run the action from a cell that is at or below the dimension attribute I am generating the list for, in this case,
Account Key.
Below is a link to a screen capture (unable to embed it due to lack of reputation) showing the action and dimension structure in Excel. The action works as long as I run it at the
Account Key level or below. I want to be able to run it at higher levels, such as
Account Major and still have it generate all then related Account Key values for the SSRS report parameter. Running it at the higher
Account Major level does not trigger the report to run.
Excel Action Screen Shot:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/QCGSp.png
Below is the MDX I am using to generate the value for the report parameter:
UrlEscapeFragment(
GENERATE(
DESCENDANTS(
[Account].[Account Key].CurrentMember,
[Account].[Account Key].[Account Key]
[Account].[Account Key].CURRENTMEMBER.Name,
"&rp:Account="
I am hoping that I can somehow modify the MDX above to make it return all the
Account Keys for any attribute of the Account dimension when ran from any measure cell, not just when ran at self and children of
Account Key in the pivot table.
Also, if it helps, I can execute the following MDX query on the cube and get the results I am looking for.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Account Key List] as
GENERATE(
DESCENDANTS([Account].[Account].CurrentMember, [Account].[Account].[Account]),
[Account].[Account].CURRENTMEMBER.NAME,
"&rp:Account=")
SELECT {[Measures].[Account Key List]} on 0,
([Account].[Account Company Number].[Account Company Number],[Account].[Account Major].[Account Major]
) on 1
FROM [Company 10 Action Demo]
Below are partial results:
10.116&rp:Account=10.116.010
10.117&rp:Account=10.117.010&rp:Account=10.117.020
10.120&rp:Account=10.120.005&rp:Account=10.120.006&rp:Account=10.120.010&rp:Account=10.120.020&rp:Account=10.120.030&rp:Account=10.120.040&rp:Account=10.120.050&rp:Account=10.120.060&rp:Account=10.120.380&rp:Account=10.120.999
10.123
Questions
Any ideas what I might need to do to get Account Key to be returned for any attribute of the
Account dimension?
Would I possibly have to alter my Account dimension in the cube to get this to work?
Thanks in advance.
Edit 1 - Adventure Works Cube Version
I was unable to get the suggested answer with the "Exists" function to work. To better demonstrate this issue, I have recreated it using the Adventure Works Cube.
I will focus on the Customer dimension, specifically the Customer and
Education attributes. I created a report action called Test Report Action. Below is the XML created for it in the cube.
<Action xsi:type="ReportAction" dwd:design-time-name="f35ad5ee-5167-4fb8-a0e0-0a74cc6e81c6">
<ID>Report Action 1</ID>
<Name>Test Report Action</Name>
<TargetType>Cells</TargetType>
<Target></Target>
<Type>Report</Type>
<ReportServer>SQLSERVER</ReportServer>
<Path>ReportServer?/Test Report</Path>
<ReportParameters>
<ReportParameter>
<Name>Test Customer Existing</Name>
<Value>UrlEscapeFragment(
GENERATE(
EXISTING DESCENDANTS(
[Customer].[Customer].CurrentMember,
[Customer].[Customer].[Customer]
[Customer].[Customer].CURRENTMEMBER.Name,
"&rp:Customer="
)</Value>
</ReportParameter>
</ReportParameters>
<ReportFormatParameters>
<ReportFormatParameter>
<Name>rs:Command</Name>
<Value>Render</Value>
</ReportFormatParameter>
<ReportFormatParameter>
<Name>rs:Renderer</Name>
<Value>HTML5</Value>
</ReportFormatParameter>
</ReportFormatParameters>
</Action>
Below are the steps to re-create the issue.
Connect to the cube in Excel
Add dimension Customer -> More Fields -> Customer
Add measure Internet Sales -> Internet Sales Amount
Right-click Internet Sales Amount cell, select "Additional Actions" -> "Test Report Action" and see customer values created for URL
When the action is ran at this point with Customer, I see the values created in the URL shown message box (since there is no SSRS report server at location specified).
Now the part I'm unable to resolve
Remove the Customer dimension and add Customer -> Demographic -> Education
Right-click Internet Sales Amount cell, select "Additional Actions" -> "Test Report Action"
Nothing happens. If I ran the action on the cell next to "Bachelors", I would want it to build up all the list of all the "Customers" that make up the "Bachelors" in the
Customer dimension as part of the report parameter. If no attributes where used in the cube from the
Customer dimension for that cell, then I would like it to return "All Customers", or something similar to show that all customers are included in the aggregations.
I am not too MDX savvy, thus far. I think I need to somehow join the
Customers to Internet Sales Amount in the Generate function portion. I have tried several different combinations of the
Customer dimension and Internet Sales Amount, along with various functions to see if I could get this to work with no success. I am hoping that someone more knowledgeable the me will have a solution. If you need more details,
please ask and I will provide them.

Simon,
Thanks for you help with this. This morning I found a workaround. Below describes what that is.
What I ended up doing was getting a list of values from a degenerate dimension that I could use to pass to SSRS to get a list of transactions for a report. Below is how I did this, in relation to the Adventure Works cube using the degenerate dimension
Internet Order Details.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Order Param List] AS
GENERATE(
EXISTS([Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].[Sales Order Number].Members, ,
"Internet Sales"),
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].CurrentMember.Name,
"&rp:OrderNum=")
SELECT {[Measures].[Order Param List], [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]} ON 0
,([Date].[Calendar].[Date]) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
This will get a list of Sales Order Number in a text string, separated by "&rp:OrderNum=" for each measure of
Internet Sales. This would allow me to create an SSRS report to bring back detail information for each
Sales Order Number. Below are some sample results.
May 16, 2007 SO50493&rp:OrderNum=SO50494&rp:OrderNum=SO50495&rp:OrderNum=SO50496&rp:OrderNum=SO50497&rp:OrderNum=SO50498&rp:OrderNum=SO50499&rp:OrderNum=SO50500 $12,157.80
May 17, 2007 SO50501&rp:OrderNum=SO50502&rp:OrderNum=SO50503&rp:OrderNum=SO50504&rp:OrderNum=SO50505&rp:OrderNum=SO50506&rp:OrderNum=SO50507&rp:OrderNum=SO50508 $13,231.62
May 18, 2007 SO50509&rp:OrderNum=SO50510 $4,624.91
With this, I can then create a Report Action in SSRS with a Parameter Value of
UrlEscapeFragment(
GENERATE(
EXISTS([Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].[Sales Order Number].Members, ,
"Internet Sales"),
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].CurrentMember.Name,
"&rp:OrderNum=")
The way I was going about it before was flawed, as I was trying to get a list of the granular values from each dimension used to build the measure value and pass each one of those as separate parameters. I just needed to set something unique for each fact
measure transaction that represents the value and uses that in a query parameter for the SSRS report.

How to pass multi-value input parameter to SQL command

I'm having trouble following the threads related to passing multi-value parameters to a SQL command.
I need more details on the work-around that exists for using a dummy main report to GET the input parameters and pass them to a subreport parameter that uses the input parameters in its sql command WHERE clause.
So far the main report prompts user to enter badge numbers into a multi-value string type parameter field called badgeNumber.
The main report getRequesters command executes the following SQL:
SELECT requester FROM lawprod.requester WHERE lawprod.requester.requester IN '{?badgeNumber}'
order by requester
The main report also contains a formula called requesterList that concatenates the input parameters and separates the values with commas: (Join ({?badgeNumber}, ", ")
So if user enters badge numbers 1 and 2 and 3 the value of requesterList is 1, 2, 3
From the main report I've used the Insert Subreport command to choose an existing report, and used the link tab to link @requesterList to ?requester; where ?requester is a multi-value parameter that is used in the subreport's SQL query as shown below:
WHERE (lawprod.ictrans.update_date <= {?endDate} AND
       lawprod.ictrans.update_date >= {?startDate} AND
       lawprod.ictrans.doc_type = 'IS' AND
       lawprod.ictrans.system_cd = 'RQ' AND
       lawprod.mmdist.posting_type = 'O1')
      AND
      (lawprod.ictrans.company = lawprod.mmdist.company AND
       lawprod.ictrans.system_cd = lawprod.mmdist.system_cd AND
       lawprod.ictrans.location = lawprod.mmdist.location AND
       lawprod.ictrans.doc_type = lawprod.mmdist.doc_type AND
       lawprod.ictrans.document = lawprod.mmdist.doc_number AND
       lawprod.ictrans.shipment_nbr = lawprod.mmdist.doc_nbr_num AND
       lawprod.ictrans.line_nbr = lawprod.mmdist.line_nbr AND
       lawprod.ictrans.component_seq = lawprod.mmdist.component_seq)
      AND
      (lawprod.ictrans.company = lawprod.reqline.company AND
       lawprod.ictrans.document = lawprod.reqline.req_number_a AND
       lawprod.ictrans.line_nbr = lawprod.reqline.line_nbr AND
       lawprod.reqline.company = lawprod.reqheader.company AND
       lawprod.reqline.req_number = lawprod.reqheader.req_number)
       AND
       (lawprod.reqheader.requester in '{?requester}')
Following execution of the main report, Crystal appears to prompt for three values as expected: badge numbers for the main report, and start and end dates needed by the subreport.   I can't figure out why Crystal XI returns no data. Can anyone explain what I'm missing?
Edited by: Patricia Sims on Sep 21, 2009 9:30 PM

The reason no data is returned is that the multiple values are not (properly?) passed to the main report's SQL. The main report's SQL should be (MS SQL):
select 1 as dummy
This causes exactly one record to be returned, which will basically be ignored (except the fact that it will drive the subreport; any query that returns only 1 record will suffice...).
Change the concatenation of the selected values to be (basic syntax):
formula = "|" + join({?badgeNumber}, "|") + "|"
The leading and trailing vertical bars are important (otherwise a database value of 1 might match a selection of 123).
Pass the concatenated string as the parameter value to the subreport. In your subreport, select records on (basic syntax):
formula = (instr({?sr-badgeParam}, "|"+cstr({requester},"0") + "|") > 0)
(assumes is numeric in the database, and is integer; modify or eliminate cstr() if otherwise...)
Put your subreport on the detail format of the main report, and you're all set...

Passing the values from the graph when we use Navigate to the BI Content

Hi,
The following are the problems which we are facing when navigating to the other BI report.
1)When using the “Navigate to BI content” action the values are not getting passed to the detail report from the graph. Is there any limitation or any alternative to make it work?
When I click on the Bar graph I need to pass the corresponding period and the dimension (EX: Operating Unit – Vision Services R+D) to the detail report.
2)I have tried using the “Navigate to Web page” action. I am able to pass the values but the page is getting opened in another window. I want that page to be opened in the same window so that my presentation variable values are not lost.
3)When I click on the bar graph, I am able to pass the values period and operating unit. But my presentation variable values are lost. I want to retain them.
Please help me out in achieving this scenario.
Thanks,
Chaithanya

Hi,
In the column properties give the navigation to other reports from the interaction tab and make a chart with the column and in the dashboard -->edit dashboard-->in the section where the report is placed--->give 'drill in place'.

How do I pass input values from an OTL timecard to a Fast Formula (FF)?

Hi - I hope my question is a simple one, but after hours of searching I have a feeling it is not. I currently have a FF rule that checks if benefit hours were entered in whole or half day increments. If not, an error is shown after 'Continue' is clicked. I fully understand the setup of this rule and all I want to do is enhance it a bit. I want to verify if the Task Code and Expenditure Type code combination that is coded is correct. If they are not, I want to flag it. My issue is: I have not been able to pass the values of Task Code and Expenditure Type to the FF successfully. They are not database values and any aliases I try do not work (I assume they would be input variables passed to the FF). Any tips would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Rob

You should read these values from the attributes pl/sql tables in your FF code. The timecard related info gets passed to the FF as context when you are creating a time entry rule FF.

Passing multi value parameter to the Drill through report

Hi
I have two reports say Report A and Report B.
Both reports using same parameters.
I am Navigating from Report A to Report B using Jump to Report option.
Now when I pass multiple parameter to the Report B it only displays first parameter results.
In report B I have parameter multi value select to true.
I would like to know if its possible or not to pass multi value parameter in drill through report?
I would appreciate if someone can help me here.
Regards

Yes you can pass multi value parameters to a drill through report.
It works similar to multi value parameters for subreports, which is discussed in detail in this thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=163803&SiteID=1

We are not able to pass the presentation variables(date & Date1) to the det

Hi,
We have followed the below link to use the date between prompt and passed the presentation variables in the filter condition of the report criteria.
http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2009/03/obiee-between-dates-prompt.html
But we are not able to pass the presentation variables(date & Date1) to the detail report.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
Siva.

Yes,I think it wont pass the parameters from one parent report to child report.one thing you can do is put the detailed report on a page in the same dashboard as that of prompt.Put the same between condition on that report also.Give navigation link to this page instead of report.You can hide this page as well so that it will be available only on navigation.
i have not tried it.Give it a try.
