OBIEE(11.1.1.6.8) dashboard prompts "Please Wait" Problem after the automatic upgrade of browser

Hi all,
We have a problem in OBIEE(11.1.1.6.8) dashboard prompts after the upgrade of Chrome browser.. The values of dashboard prompts are not shown to user ( with message "Please wait" ) We had this problem in Internet Explorer 10. So we had announced the users to have minimum browser versions Chrome 12+ , Firefox 17+ , Internet Explorer 9.x as its is declared in certification matrix. Now after upgrade (automatically)in Chrome version 30.0.1599.101 m , we have the same problem and the only working browser remaining is Mozilla Firefox. What should we do to prevent this without upgrade or patch ? Is there any workaround ?
Thanks ...

Dashboard Prompt using values not from the table

Hi,
I have a requirement from the client to design a dashboard report like the following.
Dashboard prompt will have 4 filters, three filters come from the table, but the fourth filter will have 3 values not from the table. The fourth filter will have values like "Report with Sales Amount", "Report with Purchase Amount", "Report with both Purchase and Sales". I have three different Table reports designed for each of the fourth filter choices. But how do I implement it, both in the dashboard prompt as well as navigating to the rite report based on the selection.
Is my approach correct.
Thanks for your time and help.

The fourth prompt where you have "Report with Sales Amount", "Report with Purchase Amount", "Report with both Purchase and Sales" you pull a dummy column into the prompt and write a sql in show.
would be something like
SELECT Case when 1=0 then "Dimension- Customer"."Cust Name" else 'Report with Sales Amount' end FROM Sales UNION SELECT Case when 1=0 then "Dimension- Customer"."Cust Name" else 'Report with Purchase Amount' end FROM Sales
and in the prompt set a presentation variable say var_criteria
Now create report2 for with a some randomn column and another column will have the values that you want to display for example 'Report with Sales Amount'
Create a filter on the 2nd column and reference the presentation variable var_criteria and default it to 'Report with Sales Amount'
On the dashboard page in the section place the report and enable guided navigatoin by selecting report 2.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
thanks,

New to dashboard prompts and having problems

I am trying to use two dashboard prompts as presentation variables (which I have never used before) for the start and end dates of a date range for a report.
I created two dashboard prompts: pvStartDate and pvEndDate as you suggested. For these dashboard prompts, the operator is "is equal to or is in", the control is Calendar, and "Default to" is Report Defaults. I selected "Presentation Variable" and named as pvStartDate and pvEndDate.
At the suggestion of a seperate post, I am using these presentation variables as filters in the report. Currently I use the two fillter method: Modified is greater than or equal to @{pvStartDate} and Modified is less than or equal to @{pvEndDate}.
I get the following error when trying to procede:
Error getting drill information: SELECT Lead."First Name"||' '||Lead."Last Name" saw_0, Lead."Product Interest" saw_1, Lead.Status saw_2, Activity.Type saw_3, Activity.Subject saw_4, Activity.Description saw_5, "- Owned By User"."Employee Name" saw_6, "- Due Date"."Task Due Date" saw_7, Activity."Last Modified" saw_8, Activity.Status saw_9 FROM "Activity Lists (RTO5)" WHERE (Lead."Product Interest" = 'Forensic/IST') AND (Activity."Last Modified" >= timestamp '0000-00-00 00:00:00') AND (Activity."Last Modified" <= timestamp '0000-00-00 00:00:00').
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your response.
Actually, the error was from pulling at the dashboard.
I decided to go the easier route and use the step-three prompt in the filter.
It seems, though, that the operaters "between" and "less than or equal to" do not contain the final prompted date in this system as the date is indicated as 12:00 AM--or midnight at the start of the date.
This system is so strange.

OBIEE prompt - 'Please Wait' or 'loading'

Hi,
I have not upgraded anything. I have many prompts in a single report and one one prompt does not display value. It just says 'Please wait' forever. What could be the reason if other prompts are working fine? I have re-imported this column and tried too. Yet, no success.
Thanks

Hi, does your prompt use the "Limits values by" ? Because this option generate more complex queries using a fact table to join dimensions together and limit the list of values.
You can also have a look in the logs for the physical query OBIEE is running so you will be fixed of what's happening and why it's taking long time.

Cascade dashboard prompts in OBIEE 10.1.3.4

Hi,
Is there any concept of Cascade dashboard prompt in OBIEE 10.1.3.4.
I have a requirement as described below -
Start date and End date dashboard prompts. (Calendar) - Results of Start Date and End Date selected are captured in the Presentation Variables Startdt, Enddt respectively.
Promotions dashboard prompt (multi select) - This Prompt should show the results from the SQL Query -

Hi
This is a known OBIEE bug.
Please refer http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/presentation_variable_initialization
With a Multi Select dashboard prompt
You cannot set a Presentation Variable in a Multi Select dashboard prompt in OBIEE 10g. This is expected behavior. OBIEE 10g is working as designed. A Presentation variable can assume a single value. Because of that, presentation variables are not available when using multi select prompts. OBIEE 11g will introduce the ability to set Presentation Variables when using multi select prompts. In 10g you can try as a workaround using more than 1 prompt.
I don't more work arounds than listed here:
http://obiee-blog.info/answers/multiselect-prompt-presentation-variable/
But, these work arounds might not suffice your issue.
Please let me know if you come up with a better solution.
Good Luck.

Dashboard prompt on a Dimension Hierarchy in Obiee 11g

Hi All,
I have created a hierarchy (parent-child) on a dimension 'A'. I am able to create a dashboard prompt for the dimension hierarchy. However I am not sure how to create a report that is to be filtered on this dashboard prompt. I tried using the attribute name that the hierarchy uses but that does not work. Can some one please let me know how i can filter a report by a hierarchy dimension prompt.
Thanks,
Nikita
Edited by: user12438396 on May 8, 2011 1:16 PM

Hi Nikita,
For your requirement, you need to go for Selection steps pane in the analysis(report). Click on steps link and then add the hierarchy column that you want to use and expand the hierarchy to the lowest level. Now select all these and all the attributes will now appear in the other side.
If you dont expand the hierarchy to the lowest level, then only the highest level values will appear in your selection at prompt.
Also make sure to check the 'override' checkbox in the bottom, this helps in filtering the values.
Hope this answers your question.
Cheers,
Obul

How to use action links or master-detail event in dashboard prompts?

Hi,
I am new to OBIEE 11g. I have created three reports 1.Daily Data Report, 2.Weekly Data Report 3. Monthly Data Report.
I have created one dashboard prompt in which I have specified choices as Daily, Weekly and Hourly.
My requirement is that when I select the choice as 'Daily' I should get Daily Data report below Dashboard prompt.
When I select the choice as 'Weekly' I should get Weekly Data report below Dashboard prompt
and when I select the choice as 'Monthly' I should get Monthly Data report below Dashboard prompt.
How this can be achieved in OBIEE 11g?

Hi,
What you do is just put this 3 different reports in 3 different dashboard sections and in section condition assign a condition based on presentation variable so that when u select weekly in the prompt only the weekly section condition should be true and other 2 section conditions should be false, in that case only the true section condition will display and false conditions will hidden.
Try implement this u will definetly can achieve the result.
Note: Create Variable prompt for this as best practice

Need help with formating in a dashboard prompt

Hi
This should be an easy one. I'm creating some dashboard prompts and been looking on the Sample OBIEE and some prompts there. Well, what I would like to do is a prompt so simple as:
Prompt Label:
- alt1
- alt2
- alt3
- and so on ...
Have you seen what I've done? I want the Label of the prompt to be bold but the data inside, the alternatives should be normal.
What I do is that go to the Dashboard prompt, create it and so on and on the lower part of the Dashboard prompt edit pane "Display" I click on the pencil ... "Edit" ... go to "Format" and in there I choose "Style: Bold" ... the thing is that both Label and Alternatives turn Bold for me ...
What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
If you are using 11g then keep the prompt in a section and you can add section title and you can format it accordingly. But keep the name in the label as a BLANK.
And if you are using 10g then by default the name in the label for the prompts becomes BOLD but the values would be normal.
Award points if found useful/helpful to you.

How to cache columns that are dashboard prompts?

Hi,
I have a few columns in a table that are defined as dashboard prompts. The values in a particular column in the dashboard prompt are constrained based on the value selected in the previous dashboard prompt. Once a user logs in he/she can see only the data based on his role.
How do I cache the dashboard prompt table (columns of which are defined as dashboard prompts) and the security table (which determines the user's role and finally determines the data level security) so the user does not have to wait too long for the landing page to show up once he logs in.
Thanks for inputs.

Dashboard Prompt Execution Order

Hi everyone,
I wanted to create a few test cases to see which order the Dashboard prompts were executing. What I did was I created two identical dashboard prompts, DBP1 and DBP2, on column "Account Number". I set DBP1 to Default to Specific value of 1. I set DBP2 to Default to Specific value of 2. My assumption is that the last prompt that executes is the value that will be shown in a dashboard.
I put the two prompts into a Dashboard and ran a few tests and here is what I found out:
1. The order in which the prompts appear are the dashboard is irrelevant to the execution order.
2. The value to which the prompts are set to is irrelevant to the execution order
3. The name of the dashboard prompts is irrelevant to the execution order
4. The alias of the dashboard prmopt is irrelevant to the execution order
In my trials, the second dashboard prompt's value was always the one being shown. So I created a third dashboard prompt DBP3 set to value 3. Then all the prompts had 3 as their value. My conclusion is that DB prompts are executed in the order in which they are created. Some where in their metadata, there must be a sequence number or internal ID that grows each time a DB prompt is created. Then OBIEE uses this identifier to determine execution order.
Can anyone confirm or deny that?
Thanks!

Edited by: Joe Bertram on Dec 5, 2009 10:44 AM

Hi Sunil,
Thanks for the reply. You are correct. Its seems that the dashboard prompts do execute asynchronously.
It turns out the reason why I was seeing newer dashboard prompts taking precendent over older dashboard prompts has to do with the cache. Apparently the last dashboard prompt in the cache, is the value all the prompts will have.
thanks!

Can I set a Session Variable from a Dashboard Prompt, using values that are

Hi All
Trying to set a Session Variable to an integer value, by letting users select a text value from the drop-down list on a Dashboard Prompt. The goal is to set the input parameter to the IndexCol function, but to provide the end users with a text description of what they are setting.
Select Value Set Variable Value
My 0
My Team 1
My Companies 2
My Teams Companies 3
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this? Certainly we could populate the drop-down from a data source, however I don't see how to populate a variable with something other than the values on the screen.
The IndexCol function is referenced in a Filter in Answers, and I'm thinking to populate a Session variable using the (Presentation) variable value set from the prompt. But how to do this? I see a reference to a function NQSSetSessionValue(), but cannot find documentation on how it works.
Any clue will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi kishore..
Looks like the link u have sent uses advanced SQL tab to set session variables. I want to know if I can use "set variable NQ_SESSION.myvar= @something" in the "SQL results" -while creating a dashboard prompt-.
Purpose: I want the session variable to be set based on whatever report that im currently in.
And i dont want to use presentation variables because im using a reset button in my page.
My reset script resets presentation variables and NOT session variables.
Thanks in advance

Presentation variable in dashboard prompt

Hi All
I have a report on a dashboard page which navigates to another report on a different dashboard page (on the same dashboard). The
first dashboard page has a prompt which needs to be passed as a filter to the navigated report i.e. Report1 on dashpage1 has Level1 prompt
whose value must be passed to Report2 on dashpage2 which has Level2 (hence Report2 must show Level2 values for the passed Level1).
1) I tried setting prompt1 on first page scope to Dashboard but it didn't help.
2) I am trying to set a presentation variable 'level1_val' in the prompt1 and then in report2 say Level2 = @{level1_val} in Answers (filter->add presentation variable, I did not provide a default value). But when I navigate, Report2 shows no results. On adding the filter value, I noticed that the condition in Report2 is Level1=level1_val (Its taking level1_val presentation variable as a string and matching it to the Level1 prompt value). Level1 prompt value is a string. Is there a format say '@{level1_val}' that I should use in the column filter (I've tried this too)?
Thanks

You are using dashboard url option in the code from the report 1 to call dashboard page 2 (with report 2).
You have only dashboard prompt for level 2 in the dashboard page 2?
1. If you put in the filter of the second report column is equal to presentation variable that you set in the first dashboard prompt this will not work, you'll get COLUMN is equal to pres_var. When you are using DASHBOARD URL you need to pass presentation variable to the filter of the target (dashboard page prompt). If the target page prompt does't exist the parameter is parsed to the filter of all reports (or just one) that has this COLUMN set to is prompted.
2. Go to the report 2 and set level 1 is prompted.
3. Go to the report 1 and write dashboard url correctly with passing presentation variable like:
'<--a href=http://.../saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/.../_portal/Yourdashboard/&Page=Yourdashboardpage
&Action=Navigate&col1=TABLE.COLUMN&val1='||REPLACE(REPLACE('@{pres_var}', ' ', '+'), '+', '%2B')||'>Link
<--/a>'
TABLE.COLUMN is a target column to which you want to pass parameter (presentation variable), it can be on the prompt or just set to is prompted in the report 2.
But if you want to pass presentation variable to the filter of the dashboard page 2 prompt which is level 2 this could be a problem (if you are using SQL result option in the dashboard prompt in the second page to show level 2 and want to filter it by pres_var that you set in the first page prompt with level 1 this is not possible, because you can only pass parameter to the page prompt field, but you can set dummy hidden prompt in the second page and pass level 1 to it and then set new presentation variable that is available only for the second page and then use this presentation variable as the filter in the second page prompt for level 2 in the filter to show only level 2 values for the level 1 value, this method is explained in the link below).
Try to fix it now.
