OBIEE 11g: Freeze Column Headers?

Hello experts,
I am still new to 11.1.17 and my boss wants me to have the report’s panes frozen, just like in excel. Does anyone if there is an easy way to do this besides going through the instanceconfig.xml? Just through analysis
I was thinking from 11.1.1.6 may be things have improved. Anyone with a full step by step instructions?
Will surely appreciate the help

If that is the case you can follow 10g style of paging in table view to achieve both

Freeze column headers in WAD

Hi,
I developed a web layout in the WAD.
For my analysis grid, I want to freeze my column headers so when I scroll down, I still can see my column headers.
We can't work with XHTML-frames because the width of our first column changes...
Anybody an idea?

OBIEE-11g Double columns question

Hi guys, on my pc i've installed business intelligence suite 11.1.3 and now I need support about double columns feature. In the business model I've this hierarchy
Region -> Province -> Municipality
where the keys for each level are represented by the name of the element, the problem is that this keys are used to map geometric shapes to enable the map views features and the Municipality values are ambiguous in their domain (could exist two municipality with the same name but different province) in the official documentation is wrote that to unique identify a shape should be used a double columns field but when I 'apply the double field feature to the hierarchy levels the drill feature doesn't work properly and I get a strange filter error (seems that the system filter the value by id on the wrong field). Somebody could help me to understand if I can define a hierarchy where the keys have a descriptor id associated ?
Thanks a lot Regards

I 've also come up with the same issue. I am using OBIEE 11G (11.1.1.5.0) and Oracle Mapviewer Ver11_1_1_4_B110225.
On the RPD, My hierarchy is defined as: District -> Quarter -> Neighbourhood.
For each hierarchy level I am using:
District Logical Level keys:
District Id: Primary Key
District Name: Use for Display
Quarter Logical Level Keys:
Quarter Id: Primary Key
Quarter Name: Use for Display
Neighbourhood Logical Level Keys:
Neighbourhood Id: Primary Key
Neighbourhood Name: Use for Display
I need to associate each Mapviewer theme's ID (District ID, Quarter ID, Neighbourhood ID) with a relevant BI column, because the theme names are not distinct.
I have set the double column (Descriptor Id) feature: (District ID, Quarter ID, Neighbourhood ID) on each BI name column (BI Distict Name, BI Quarter Name, BI
Neighbourhood Name) of the business model and associated the layer key (ID) of each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI name column.
On the map view, drilling down from District to Quarter works properly, but I get the following action error while drilling down from quarter to neighbourhood:
An error occurred while trying to generate drill down query.
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError:
46036] Internal Assertion: Condition rowValues.size() == numColumns, file server\Query\Src\SQNavigatorAccess.cpp, line 495. (HY000)
SQL Issued: {CALL NQSGenerateDrillDownQuery('SELECT District Name saw_0, Quarter Name saw_1, DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(District Name) saw_2, DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(Quarter Name)
saw_3 FROM "Subject Area" WHERE DESCRIPTOR_IDOF(District) = 5','1','''5'',''31'',31','-1 -1 -1 -1 -1','0,2,3')}
However, if I add a table view on my analysis and click on the table view's quarter link, drilling down works ok both for the table and for the map view.
Moreover, I tried removing the double column (descriptor Id) feature from the business model while maintaining the hierarchy as described above.
I then associated the layer key (ID) of each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI ID column instead of the BI name column.
On the map view while drilling down from District to Quarter, a filter to a specific District is applied, but the associated Quarters theme is not displayed.
Finally, if I enable the "Use for Display" checkbox for each hierarchy level's primary key on the RPD, and maintain the association between the layer key (ID) of
each Mapviewer theme with the corresponding BI ID column, drilling down works correctly but only on the ID.
I need drilling down to work while clicking on the each name BI column of the hierarchy while defining the association on the layer key ID of each mapviewer
theme. Is this possible? Any ideas?

Weird behaviour of OBIEE 11g hierarchy columns

Hi,
I'm facing this weird issue when i implement the OBIEE 11g new feature called hierarchy column.The issue is that the last value in the hierarchy is reporting
Example
Store Heir-achy
->Store Country
->Store City
->Store name
->Store Name
->Store name (And the level goes on and on).
I don't know why this weird thing is happening.Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sunny.

Thanks for the response, in regards to whether it is 1 or 2 Logical Facts, it is still the same behaviour. IN regards to the Logical Dimension, yes it is set with two LTS with the applicable content levels set. I even tried that as just 1 LTS doing the join through the General tab. Still the same behaviour with the drill-down. I am assuming it will always go through the full drill path regardless of what level the Fact you are hitting is at.

Hi Srini,
Welcome to S.D.N.
Well there is one way of doing it that i know of is using StyleSheets...

OBIEE 11G - Double column (Descriptor Id)

Hello All,
I have a problem in implementing Descriptor ID functionality. I have a time dimension, for which i am using Year, Period Name and Period Number.
I have placed Period Number as Period Name ID column and in the report i am using the period Number to be filtered out. I created a dashboard prompt with Year and Period with limit values on Period Name.
After selecting the year, when i select the period, its getting the months only for that selected year, its fine. once I click on apply, the period prompt is changing to another value but report filtering is fine.
for Ex: Selected Year is 2012 and for that i got all the periods from Jan-12 to Dec -12. When i Select Mar-12 and click on Apply, the report is filtering for Mar-12 but, I prompt value is changed to Mar-14 (why 14 is because i have records in time dimension till 2014) .
I verified the log, and see that... year is not passing for period as i have year and period filters report is fine. but after population
SELECT DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("<table>"."Fiscal Period") saw_0, "Time"."Fiscal Period" saw_1 FROM "<Subject Area>" WHERE DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("<SA>"."Time"."Fiscal Period") = 8 ORDER BY saw_0, saw_1
I am using OBI 11.1.1.5 version
Any help is gr8ly appreciated..
Thanks in Advance...

KN

Hi,
Did you enabled check box on your perod prompt and select “Enable user to select by Code Column”
Note: filter option will not work in case of Operator other than is equal/not equal/between

Obiee 11g hierarchy columns download into csv format.

When using hierarchical columns, Is there a way to download the results as the user see it on the view (be it table or pivot view) into a CSV format.
Excel format works, but if the user drill down on the hierarchy column and then export in CSV format... the data gets exported to the level the report was originally set.
Is there any way to change this behavior?
One option we can recommend to users is to download in excel format and then convert to CSV....if needed.
FYI, we just starting looking into 11g 11.1.1.5 version... planning to migrate from 10g to 11g...
Thanks

How to freeze column headers?

How can I freeze the column header so it doesnot disappear when I scroll down. I am using JSF and tomahawk <t:dataTable> in am application

This is not possible with JSF. It is also not possible with normal HTML.
Fixed column header is easy using a few CSS lines, but this won't work in a certain widely used web browser developed by a team in Redmond. You'll have to look in the Javascript+DOM corner for the solution then, but this won't work if the client disabled Javascript in their browser (although this would cover less than 1% of your target group I guess).
Here are some straightforward Google hints:

Issue with OBIEE 11g measure columns

Hi,
Recently one of our application got migrated from 10 to 11g. post migration we had patched 6.1 and 6.2.
measure column defined in RPD were working fine in 10g and 11g(after patching) as well. Suddenly all measure columns are behaving abnormal.
Even though the measures are defined at particular level, the values are getting summed up and displaying the same for each and every dimension entity.
Simply bifurcation is not happening according to the dimension in all the reports.
c1 c2 c3
a x 2
b y 2
c z 2
Any guess?

Check the physical query for group by clause cols, and check for those columns levels.

OBIEE 11g Calculated column problem

Hi Gurus,
I want to convert to below condition to obiee.
Database Condition like below:
ZEROIFNULL(CAST((CAST(COUNT(CASE WHEN END_output<=.033 and END_output>='-.117' THEN END_output END) AS FLOAT)/
CAST(NULLIFZERO (COUNT(In_PUT)) AS FLOAT)) AS DECIMAL(10,1)))*100 AS Real_Time
In Database output is = 48
I have converted to OBIEE like below.
IFNULL( CAST ( COUNT(CASE WHEN "- Order Fact"."END_output" <= .033 and "- Order Fact"."END_output" >='-.117' THEN "- Order Fact"."END_output" END) AS FLOAT ), 0) / CAST(IFNULL (COUNT("- Sales Fact"."In_PUT"),0) AS FLOAT ) *100
In OBIEE output is = 45
Note: I am getting two or three count difference in OBIEE.
I guess the problems is Decimal, how to apply decimal in obiee like (DECIMAL(10,1)))..
Please help on this.
Thanks

Freeze column headers in a table and enable vertical scroll bar on the rows

I have seen demos of BI Publisher running an html view of a report that displays a table of data with a vertical scroll bar on the table. The table header is always visible as you scroll down on the rows of the table. Any idea how this is achievable?

Hi,
Have you find a way to do this? Im looking for the exact same thing!
Where did you see this demo?

Peoplesoft Trees as Hierarchial Columns in OBIEE 11g

Sorry for a duplicate posting. Logged in as a normal user with random number. I know how much people hate it. Logged in as myself now.
Hi,
I have extensively searched using Google or 11g docs but could not find a proper solution to using Peoplesoft trees in form of hierarchial columns in obiee 11g. Can the rpd of obiee 11g be designed to view the Peoplesoft tree structure( as it is in Tree manager in Pplsoft) as hierachial columns in obiee 11g? I am sure hierarchial columns as a 11g feature are not just for visual representation in tree format but also can be viewed in Answers and queried against it,am I right?
Anybody who has worked on trees and OBIEE 11g hierarchial columns? Ahsan/Navin??
Thanks,
Dan

I have not used the 11g hierarchical columns for PSoft Trees but I can think of a glaring reason NOT to do this..PERFORMANCE. If I understand correctly, 11g issues a group by and Union as you traverse this type of structure and PeopleSoft trees have a number of tables to represent the actual TREE. I cannot possibly see how this can be effective especially with a large scale BI Apps DW? This is part of the reason the trees get flattened out via the OOTB ETL adaptors for PSoft.

Excel like 'Freeze column header' functionality in sharepoint OOB list view webpart

Hi,
I have OOB external list dropped on a page as listview webpart. It contains many records and hence while scrolling down headers are no available, hence it should freeze all column headers while scrolling down the page. Its directly dragged and dropped
on site page hence no server side formatting can be done.
Is there any way we can apply some client side script to freeze column headers to listview webpart while scrolling down? or any settings that can be done to acheive this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Normal techniques for freezing the header row of an HTML table tend to fall short when it comes to SharePoint 2010 lists due to the lack of THEAD elements.
You can try something like this, although you may want to test it in various browsers in case the column heading alignment is off.
<style>
.ms-viewheadertr{background-color:white;}
</style>
<script>
/* wrap the table in a div, set its height, give it scrollbars, and move it down */
var myTable = document.querySelector(".ms-listviewtable");
var wrapperDiv = document.createElement('div');
wrapperDiv.setAttribute("ID","FreezePaneWrapper");
wrapperDiv.setAttribute("style","OVERFLOW: auto; HEIGHT: 400px; padding-top:38px;");
wrapperDiv.appendChild(myTable.cloneNode(true));
myTable.parentNode.replaceChild(wrapperDiv,myTable);
/* Freeze the header row and move it up*/
var headerRow = document.querySelector(".ms-viewheadertr");
document.getElementById("FreezePaneWrapper").style.width = "" + headerRow.scrollWidth + "px";
headerRow.style.width = "" + headerRow.scrollWidth + "px";
headerRow.style.position = "absolute";
headerRow.style.top = ""+(headerRow.offsetTop-39)+"px";
/* Tell the header's columns to be the same width as the cells in the first "alternating" row */
var columns = document.querySelector("table.ms-listviewtable tr.ms-alternating").querySelectorAll("tr>td");
headers = document.querySelectorAll("tr.ms-viewheadertr th");
for(var i = 0; i < headers.length; i++){
if(columns[i].scrollWidth > headers[i].scrollWidth){
headers[i].style.width = ""+columns[i].scrollWidth + "px";
}else{
columns[i].style.width = ""+headers[i].scrollWidth + "px";
</script>
Edit: Also, you may want to inspect the HTML attributes on the external list view to be sure the class names match up with the querySelector parameters above. Specifically, the table should have a class of "ms-listviewtable", the header row should
have a class of "ms-viewheadertr", and rows of alternating background color should have a class of "ms-alternating".
If any of those are different in your case, you may be able to adjust the above code accordingly.

Freeze columns and rows for scrolling in HTML ouput

Hi everyone!
I have an BIP report with a crosstab generating a HTML output and the table tends to get very big in the ouput, both vertical and horizatal wise, and I am looking for a way to freeze the first column when scrolling horizontally and the header row when scrolling vertically.
Is there a way to accomplish this? It would help me a lot!
Thanks,
Magnus

I saw in another tread (Freeze column headers in a table and enable vertical scroll bar on the rows that this user have seen a demo of what I want to accomplish. Nothing that you are aware of?
Or, can it be done with Excel output?
