OBIEE 10g - Schdule Dashboard/Report to Print

BI Publisher supports scheduling of printing a report. Similarly, can I schdule a Report/Dashboard to print using iBot in BI Delivers? I was looking at delivery options, but the printer is not available under devices.
Does anyone know how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

This report consists of multiple union statements. I'm currently using the following 'Division' column formulas.
'<a href="saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/Management/Reports/Management%20Daily%20-%20Sales%20-%20Regional%20Entry%20Type%20Detail&options=dfr&Action=Navigate&col1=Location.%22Division%20Incl%20BSC%22&val1='|| Location."Division Incl BSC"|| '&op1=eq&col2=Time.Month&val2=%22' || replace(Time."Month", ' ', '%20') || '%22&op2=eq target="_self" ">'|| Location."Division Incl BSC"||'</a>'
'<a href="saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/Management/Reports/Management%20Daily%20-%20Sales%20-%20Regional%20Entry%20Type%20Detail &options=dfr &Action=Navigate &col1=%22MTU%20Reports%22.Division &val1=' || "MTU Reports".Division || '&op1=eq&col2=Time.Month&val2=%22' || replace(Time."Month", ' ', '%20') || '%22&op2=eq target="_self" ">' || "MTU Reports".Division ||'</a>'
The end results list the division fields twice one group after the other. I want the results to group based on one column per Division.

Hi All,
I am thinking this is machine specific, when I log on in the other users machine and when I download to Excel, it downloads and opens as a Excel file. It is just not working in my machine. I am not sure what is difference in both our machines, as both are company issued laptops with the same softwares and configurations. Not sure where to start trouble shooting. Please help with any inputs, thank you.Okay, if you are saying that your Excel won't recognize an .mhtml file -- (So what you're saying is that when you save the file and double-click it, it asks you for the program you wish to open the file in? -- then it could be that Excel is not assigned as the application to open these types of files.
Do this to check:
1) Open up Windows Explorer (Hold the Microsoft Key -- the one to the left of the Alt key -- and then press "E." This is a shortcut to opening Windows Explorer. (Note: Do not be confused with Internet Explorer!)
2) Click on Tools>Folder Options and when the window opens, click on the File Type Views.
3) Scroll down until you get to .mhtml. What is the application associated with this file extension? Change it to Excel and then Excel should open the file for you.

Switch Section in a dashboard based on the selection of Prompts (OBIEE 10G)

Hi All,
I have a requirement : I have to switch Section in a dashboard based on the selection of Prompts (OBIEE 10G).
Lets say I have 1 report in section1 and another report in section2 of a dashboard. I have a dashboard prompt,now say when the user does not select any value in a prompt I have to show section1 and when he selects values in a prompt then I have to show section2 of the dashboard. I tries this using Guided Navigation Link and presentation variable but there is a limitation that I have to select only one value in the prompt as i have created presentation variable.
But the client wants the prompt as Multi Select. in this case I can 't use the presentation variable.
How can I fulfil this requirement.Please let me know.
Thanks,
Krishna

How you create your multiselect prompt? Is it based on a column? Using multiselect prompt you'll get an issue in this case. The prompt behavior with choosing all values and choosing nothing is equivalent. But your requirement has different behavior lines.

How to export the dashboard reports for Excel in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0?

Hi Experts,
How to export the dashboard reports for Excel in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0?
For example:
Dashboard contains more than one report, and add one export button for downloading these reports for Excel.
Is it possible to implement this requirement?Thanks.

There is no direct option, you can try the following workaround.
Page Option -> Print -> Printable Html
Then File -> Save Page as
Choos Save as type as -> All files
File name as Report.xls
When you Open the xls file, if you get a pop up saying problem during load just omit it and proceed.
The report will open in excel.
Or save the page as html /mht and open it with Excel, this also will work.
Note: I have tested this in Mozilla
Thanks,

I verified Oracle BUG fix (11850704) document and tried to make changes as suggested.
Please suggest me if this issue is related to 10g to 11g RPD upgrade or are we missing any privileges?
Also should I add every user to BIAdministrator role to avoid this issue?
Thanks in Advance

Filter on the reports created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g

How do i filter on the report that is created by using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g?
I have reprot A with link to report B, report B is created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS. so it is just a table, but i need to filter out 2 columns.
here is the query in REPORT B:
select strm, acad_group, crse_id, class_section, count(emplid) from v_crse_enrl
group by crse_id, strm, class_section, acad_group;
the link in REPORT A:
'<a target="_blank" href="'||VALUEOF("bi_link")||'Go&Path=CF_CROSS_TEACHING_LIST&ACTION=Navigate&col1=STRM&val1='||view1_DIMEN.STRM||'&col2=CLASS_SECTION&val2='||TRIM(view1_DIMEN.CLASS_SECTION)||'">' ||view1_dimen.class_id||'</a>'
from this link to report B.
thank you!!

I didnt tested using url, but the same works with using presentation variables.
To your direct sql add where clause for those two columns like WHERE col='@{col1}' and col ='@{col2}'
and try to run from url.
let me know updates

OBIEE 10g Getting wrong results when adding calculated columns to a report

Hi,
I'm experiencing a possible misbehaviour with OBIEE 10g (10.1.3.4.1).
I have a simple report with a table. Columns are simply selected from dimensions and facts. In this case the generated query is:
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select sum(T30604.TOTAL_TIME) as c1,
sum(T30604.MATERIALS_QTT_COST) as c2,

Results of this report / query are wrong: it seems as if some rows "disappear".
If I delete the filter in SAWITH1 query above ( D1.c13 = 1 ) results are correct.
Anyone experiencing the same problem? The strange thing is that I have a number of similar reports (on other subject areas) and everyting is working fine.
Please also note that I don't want to add this kind of calculated items in the RPD (they can be simple calculations that are made on-the-fly).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot and regards,
Cristina

I have the same issue, everything OBIEE server generate query using ROW_NUMBER() over () function, it will hardcode Dx.cx = 1, this will cause issue if you have rows of the same distinct value, thus causing missing rows and the final results will be wrong.
I have open a SR with Oracle Support since March 2011, but till today, they have not resolve the issue yet.
Hope they solve the issue soon.

Problem in navigating from one report to another in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
I am facing an issue with OBIEE 10g while applying navigation on my reports.
Lets suppose I made a report showing list of all items(in broad categories) sold on a particular day, say Dairy, Frozen Foods, Chocolates etc.In this report there is a date prompt showing the date of sale.
Now there are certain items that are distributed within these categories, like dairy includes milk, cheese, butter etc.
Hence, my navigation should be like when I click on a particular item category, the control should move on to the report which has all items under that particular category and the prompt for this report should show the same date as passed in the previous report.
But sometimes what happens is that on clicking the navigation from first report to the second one, the date is not persisting in the prompt. I say sometimes because at times the navigation does work correctly. This is a bug of Obiee or something which is giving unexpected results.
Kindly help with your suggestions.
Thanks
Ankita

Ankita,
This is not a bug in OBIEE...I'm sure something is missing. If this is working for some cases and not working for some other case then you will need to find the root cause. Try in bits and pieces...Step by Step with some dates (unit testing). Ideally this shud work properly.
For an instance try with OBIEE drilldown feature and not with navigation with a single sale date and observe the behavior.
Hope its clear...

D2k report query , want to develop in obiee 10g

Hi,
I have a d2k report query, the result what i am getting in d2k report can i get the same result in obiee 10g.
my query in d2k report auery is like :
select a.vndr#,b.vndr_name,a.cust_type_cd,c.cust_type_e_dsct,a.branch_cd,d.branch_e_name,(sum(nvl(a.sales_total_value,0))-sum(nvl(a.return_total_value,0))) net_sales_value,count(distinct(a.cust#)) cust_count
from cust_net_sales_tmp a,vendor b,cust_type_codes c,branches d where
a.vndr#=b.vndr# and
a.branch_cd=b.branch_cd and
a.cust_type_cd = c.cust_type_cd and
a.cust_type_cd between :f_ctype and :t_ctype
group by a.vndr#,b.vndr_name,a.cust_type_cd,c.cust_type_e_dscr,a.branch_cd,d.branch_e_name
order by a.vndr#,a.cust_type_cd,a.branch_cd
thank you.
please suggest..

Hi,
The presentation variable is being passed correctly, but still the date value is not persisiting.
I have two prompts, both having presentation variables passed into them;One of the prompt value is being persisted but the other one(here date) is not.
I am not able to justify this issue as the problem is very vague. I dont see any reason for this issue to come up.
Anyways I am still trying to figure out the problem.

Ankita

How hide legends and lines of graph in OBIEE 11 dashboard report

I have an OBIEE 11.1.1.5 dashboard report that contains Time Series Line graph on the basis of some measures. Some measures are contains 0 values for these measures graph lines are drawn at origin 0 and legends of these measures are also shown.
I want to hide such kind of lines and their legends from graph any suggestion
Measures are coming on runtime basis that’s why we are not excluded these measures from table but I only want to hide from graph.

Hi,
Hiding the legent in your char.
go to measure labels --> under Vary Color By (Horizontal Axis and then uncheck box then the LINE and Legends will be removed from your report.
FYI...without line and legend

OBIEE 10g How ADD new report and use outer join

Hi,
I have to add a new report that use a new view...(just created in db)
I'm new in OBIEE.. can you explain how can i do it?
Actually:
1. I opened administrator tool and import new view (and created an alias) in physical
2. I built a logical table in BMM
3. I built a new presentation table in presentation
problem: the table in BMM have yellow icon like a fact table.. why??
can you explain me what i have to do?
thank you
Edited by: 1006028 on 15-mag-2013 2.54

By default OBIEE 10g considers a table as fact table that is dragged from physical to BMM layer. That's why you see the yellow color icon.
If it is a dimension table, you will have to join this table with a fact table in BMM layer. After this the yellow color icon will go away.
Pls mark correct/helpful.

Dashboard Name as Link in OBIEE 10g

HI,
Can v create the dashboard name as link in which when clicked will divert us to another portal??
Actually we have an external portal ,we would like to pass the OBIEE UID & PASSWORD with the URL so that the external portal gets authenticated with OBIEE login credentials.
for examples;
http://111.222.333.444:81/Intranet/MisReports.aspx?UID=@{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.enc_emp']}&PASSWD=@{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.enc_pwd']}
what r the options to archive this??

We had the same issue - we tried to integrate our obiee page or dashboard On Internet.
And, we were unable to encrypt the user id and password.
So - we created a user id and password which seems to be like encrypted.
http://....../saw.dll?Dashboard&NQuser=abbcdedfffggamyt190866298kyggmmdmnihnukvabnamam3ahd5gs6sdnakwwbqwjnsh&NQPassword=acde19457225822222mustsk192792765kahseg4090msajhamahagabkauatabagat
Now we copied this link to our companys home page and gave a different hyperlink. So, when some one clicks on the name of Reports - it opens BI Dashboard skipping Login page.
thank you.
