OBIEE 11g: Navigation on Presentation hierarchy

Hi everyone,
I've got a presentation hierarchy column setup on a parent-child node based hierarchy. It works fine in terms of drilling but the navigation on the column only works at the top level. The drills don't get the click action.
The same is true for the measures themselves. If I have a navigate on a measure, it works at the top level but not at the detail level.
Anyone know if this is a bug or just a "feature"?

Hi, i have the same problem. The hierarchy is correctly mapped, as i can see expandind the values of the hierarchy in tab results>subject area, but when i click on the root of the hierarchy in the report nothing happens. Does anyone knows what is the problem?
Thanks

  • OBIEE 11g - Navigation from Hierarchy Column

    Hi Experts,
    I have created one Organization Hierarchy (Country --> Region --> State --> City) in the Logical Layer of the rpd and pull that hierarchy with the dimension in the Presentation Layer. In the new analysis I have created dashboard prompt with the Organization hierarchy and created a report showing Total Headcount column and Organization Hierarchy column (using selection steps feature in OBIEE 11g).
    Now when I select Region from the dashboard prompt, in the report it is showing me total headcount according to my region selected in the prompt, but when I tried to navigate from the Total Headcount to see the list of employees in that particular region, I am not able to see the list of employees belonging that particular region rather it is showing me the list of total employees at the Country level.
    PS - In the navigation report I am prompting Country, Region, State and City from the Organization dimension, but I am not able to prompt Country, Region, State and City from the hierarchy column which is there in the Organization dimension.
    Please Help.

    Hi,
    You need to create the drill down report also using selection steps. I tried the drill down was working fine.
    Thanks

  • OBIEE 11G with MySql Issue Hierarchy is not working..

    Hi,
    i am using the OBIEE 11G with MySQL DB. i have sucessfully created the RPD. i created the Hierarchy in the RPD. this is the scerario i have created.
    i have only one data column created_at. by using this column i create 3 more logical logical columns, which are Year,Month Name,Week and created Hierarchy by taking the these columns only.
    when i am viewing the result by taking the hierarchy it throwing the error systax error"ou have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version".
    but we selecting the year column it successfully nagvigating to the month level data but when selecting the Hierarchy directly it is unable to navigate from year to month.
    please provide me the solution for this as soon as possbile i have an urgent requirement on this.
    Thanks,
    Yogi.

    Hi,
    Thanks for you post..
    My Requriement is that we no need to create new columns we need to necessary columns in BMM layer only and we need to use them in Hierarchy.

  • OBIEE 11g - Navigation in Parent Child Hiearchy not working

    Hi All,
    I have a employee parent child hierarchy and I want to show revenue for each employee in the report. I have modeled my revenue as a measure like case 4 shown in the following link
    http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/11/oracle-bi-ee-11g-parent-child-hierarchies-multiple-modeling-methods/
    So for example this is my report ,
    --David (30)
    ---Sandra (15)
    -----Joe (10)
    Joe'e revenue is 10, Sandra's is 5 (showing her 5 Joe's revenue) and David's is 5 (showing his 5 Sandra's revenue)
    Issue :
    Now what I want is to provide action link on the revenue column so that when user would click on revenue for any employee it would direct them to a detail report showing the bifurcation.
    For ex, I want that when user click on 15 which is Sandra's revenue, he would be redirected to a detailed report for Sandra and similary for Joe and David
    MY ISSUE IS that the navigation is NOT working for sandra and Joe. It is only working for David (who is the ancestor of sandra and Joe). When I click on 15 to see sandra's detail report, it doesn't do anything and in the bottom left corner of the browser status bar below I see an ERROR saying
    (same for Joe but David work's fine)
    Message: 'getLevelInfo(...)' is null or not an object
    Line: 1
    Char: 11142
    Code: 0
    URI: http://localhost:7001/analytics/res/b_mozilla/answers/selectionsmodel.js
    Why is that happening? Is that because I have modeled the revenue as an measure and not attribute. Is navigation not possible in this case?
    Anybody has any solution or workaround for this, it will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ronny

    Ok, so let me explain this in detail and give the structure of my tables and the data,
    There are three tables.
    1.Parent Child relationship table - pctable
    2.Closure table which OBIEE creates through a script - reltable
    3.Fact table which contains the revenue - facttable
    This is the data
    pctable
    personid | managerid
    David | NULL
    Sandra| David
    Joe|Sandra
    reltable
    memberkey | ancestorkey |distance |is_leaf
    David|NULL|NULL|0
    David|David|0|0
    Sandra|Sandra|0|0
    Joe|Joe|0|0
    Sandra|David|1|0
    Joe|Sandra|1|1
    Joe|David|2|1
    facttable
    personid|revenue
    David|5
    Sandra|5
    Joe|10
    and my joins conditions are, I join pctable to reltable and then reltable is joined to facttable like this.
    pctable.personid = reltable.ancestorkey
    reltable.memberkey = facttable.personid
    and then in the report, when I pull up the pchierarchy build from pctable and revenue , I get as below and like I said, when I click on Sandra to see the revenue she contributes, I am not able to navigate. Can you let me know what modifications needs to be done?
    ---David(20)
    ----Sandra(15)
    ------Joe(10)

  • OBIEE 11g - issue when export hierarchy to a csv

    Hello,
    I have an issue when I try to export to a csv file a report containing a Logical Dimension field, when I export just the first level of hierarchy is exported and not all the records. When I export to another format (such as excel) all the records are exported correctly. Do you know what can I do in order to have all the records exported to a csv?
    Thanks!

  • OBIEE 11g Active Directory Presentation Service Error retrieving user

    Hi Team,
    It was a great help from all of you on our OBIEE learnings.
    I recently configured Microsoft AD on Weblogic rather than RPD. But felt like I am in a desert of helplessness due to the complicated and lengthy documents and settings :(
    Still when I configured everything and logged in to presentation services using AD Credentials, observed following error!

    Total blockout! Anyone faced this issue earlier

    You need a user to be present in your Active Directory Base DN that will be used as the BISystemUser. You will either have to create this user in AD or use an existing AD user and then specify its credentials in Enterprise Manager (expand Weblogic Domain > bifoundation_domain (right click) > Security > Credentials). You will need to set system.user credential under oracle.bi.system map. Make sure your AD user's password never expires or you will run into problems in a few weeks time!

  • OBIEE 11g - Navigation

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any way to create a navigation link on the grand total in the pivot/table view.
    Edited by: user10720630 on Jan 1, 2013 4:02 AM

    Assuming you have dimension hierachies defined in your implementation; by default measure at grand total when you pull it alone and with no other column from dimensions. If you pull any other column you may not get the grand total level value. Try to create a measure and set the content tab level to Grand total or all (top most level) for required hierarchies, in this case when you pull any other columns value will not change and can go for navigation.

  • Prompt to Report navigation - OBIEE 11g

    Hello,
    I've three tables (3 different requests) to be displayed in a page. Each of these tables has one identical column eg. project_name (but from different database tables).
    My requirement :
    1.I should have only one prompt to select the project_name at the first page
    2.Only after selecting the project_name, the page should navigate to another page which displays all the three tables
    Kindly let me know how can I get the prompt to report navigation done.
    Thanks!
    Dinesh

    Hi ,
    Only after selecting the prompt you have to show the reports means use the guided navigation.
    Only after selectiing the Project_name , you can show your tables.
    But this can be done on the same page not on other page as you needed.
    Also check the below link may be helpful to you

  • 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.

  • Issue with Presentation Hierarchy in obiee 11g

    Hi Guru's
    I am using a presentation hierarchy in obiee 11 g, but it is behaving weirdly when expanding the hierarchy
    for example i have a hierarchy for languages when i expand one country in the hierarchy all the countries which has similar childs are getting expanded
    for Example Parent A B C D
    under A i have 1, 2,3,4, under B i have 5,6,7,8 under C i have 9, 10 ,11, 12 under D i have 1, 13, 14, 15
    so when i expand A in answers D is also getting expanded as i have 1 as common value in both the parents.
    can some please help me how to fix this, as the user does not like this expansion
    Thanks in advance,

    That is strange... I downloaded the files from the left hand side of this page:
    [Sample Application site|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/obiee-samples-167534.html]
    ... the title states quiite clearly that the Sample Application (Build 825) applies to OBIEE release 11g.

  • OBIEE 11g Unable to browse multiple value hierarchy for analysis.

    Hi All,
    We are using OBIEE 11g Value Hierarchy feature to display GL Segment Hierarchies.
    -     We have set the hierarchies to be Ragged and Skipped Levels in the RPD Business Model.
    -     We have dragged the hierarchies from Business Model to Presentation Layer.
    -     When selecting the hierarchies during Analysis, the first hierarchy that is browsed appears correctly. The next hierarchy when browsed just hangs.
    For example:
    Step 1: Browse Hierarchy1 (Block). The values show correctly.
    Step 2: Browse Hierarchy2 (Account). The hierarchy does not open with a blinking circle remaining forever.
    Alternatively;
    If we selected, Hierarchy 2(Account) first, the hierarchy shows correctly, but when selecting Hierarchy1 (Block) a blinking circle appears and remains for ever without opening the hierarchy.
    The nqquery.log shows correct result. My suspicion is that the issue is on the front end presentation services/javascript side.
    Is there any additional setup/configuration required to open multiple value hierarchies during analysis.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Sasi

    I have a pretty good guess at the hanging problem, unforntunitly i have no solutions yet.
    I having same type of issue, hangs when building filters on for 2nd or 3rd dim table.. I can see obiee fireing off the query to populate the dropdown by running
    select distinct on and joining to the fact table and dimensions that the users usually have selecte prior to start creatinng the filters.
    It is sort of like doing a intra dimension filter.. Sounds good but if user does not cut way down on number of fact rows by the time 2nd filtered column is selected the generated query to populate the drop down can run and run.
    OBI SE Once and discoverer dd not do this, at least not out of the box.

  • Hierarchy Prompts in OBIEE 11g

    Hi All,
    I have an Issue with Implementing Hierarchy Prompts in OBIEE 11g. I understand that Filters on Hierarchy Prompts can be applied in Selection steps and cannot be viewed in the Physical Query as such. However, what happens is, the Hierarchy prompt only gets applied when the hierarchy is displayed in the report.It is not applied even when it is present in the excluded section. So, it works only when it is displayed in the report. Is this correct? Is there any workaround for this?
    Any help on this would be much appreciated
    Regards,
    Venkatesh
    Edited by: obiapps on May 30, 2012 7:42 PM

    If the column set to prompt no matters what (column is present,or not, excluded or hidden) the prompt should work.
    Check it again something might gone wrong.
    If it is helpful, please mark as correct or helpful

  • Issue with Skip Level Hierarchy in OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    I have implemented Ragged and Skip Level Hierarchy as explained in the links below in OBIEE 11g RPD.
    (checked the 'Ragged' and 'Skipped Levels' check boxes)
    http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/07/obiee-11gr1-support-for-ragged-skip-level-value-based-hierarchies/
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/e10540/dimensions.htm#BABFBBFG
    When the Presentation Hierarchy is dragged in the OBI Answers, the leaf level beyond the skip (null) levels is not shown in the report.
    When any level finds intermediate null values, OBIEE is failing to show the existing value of the leaf level (Most Granular Level) or any values after Skipped Levels.
    For example, following is the values in database for different levels of department hierarchy.
    A -> B -> C -> Null -> Null -> F
    The OBIEE Presentation Hierarchy can only drill down till C, not beyond that. (does not show the leaf level value 'F').
    Could you please suggest whether I am missing any step?
    Thanks.

    Hi, My problem is that in my report it is showing me that levels as -- A -> B -> C -> Null -> Null -> F, however I want to show data as A -> B -> C -> F, i.e the null valus(columns) should be skipped. Please help.
    Thanks and Regards,
