OBIEE 11g Prompt's default value doesn't work with a presentation variable

Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g and I have two dashboard prompts (Product Name and Product Number). Theses prompts are hierarquical, so the values that are displayed in the Product Number prompt have dependency with the values chosen on the Product Name prompt. This I was able to do, but now I want to put a default value on the Product Number prompt. The steps are:
1 - The user chooses the value for the Product Name Prompt and by doing that the Product Number prompt is automatically filled with the correspondent value.
But unfortunatelly this is not working, after choosing the value for the Product Name the default value for Product Number is not displayed (when you open the prompt the values displayed are correct and already filtered considering the Product Name but the prompt is not automatically filled with the default value).
What I did is:
On the Product Name Prompt I've created a Presentation Variable called PROD.
On the Product Number Prompt I've selected:
1 - For the "Choice List Values" field I've checked the option "Limit Values by All Prompts"
2 - For the "Default Selection" field I've chosen the SQL Results option and enter the following SQL:
SELECT "Products"."Product Number" FROM "Sample Sales Lite"."Products" WHERE "Products"."Product"='@{variables.PROD}
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Carla

Sorry I was wrong in my previous thread.
Actually your approach is not correct, Product Number choose constraint that will show as per the selection of Product Name.
Coming to default value for Product Number you are going for sql override that is okay but not work with variable, instead of setting default values for product number set that to product name.
if not you need to go for 2 different prompts
Prompt 1 Product Name hit GO
Prompt 2 will work based on as you defined earlier with variables
Hope this helps

OBIEE 11g - Prompt Validation

Hello Gurus,
I am trying to validate a textfield prompt in a dashboard page, OBIEE 11.1.1.6, and looking for some assistance on the same. Have detailed the scenario below.
Scenario:
A dashboard page has a textfield prompt, which sets the value entered by user in a Presentation Variable "rg_office". The same dashboard page has a report, wherein one of the columns is "Office". Depending upon the value entered by the user in the textfield prompt, report would be displayed.
As we know, by making "Office" is prompted, report would be displayed. In case there is no matching value, filter section would show no match found.
What I Want:
The value entered in the textfield prompt should be of specific format. I want to show end-user an alert message if the value entered by him/her does not correspond to a specific format (format like 99:99 only). How can I incorporate the same in my dashboard?
Eagerly awaiting response.
Thanks & Regards,
RG

Hi Rahul,
Create a report that checks for the data format. Make sure the report returns rows based on your condition.
Add a static text " Please enter the data is correct format " to dashboard section, make the section to display conditionaly by adding the above created report as a condition. Whenever user enters incorrect format the text will display instead of actual report. For more info on guided navigation,

OBIEE 11g Prompt Issue

I've a dashboard prompt containing a column *'Fiscal Year'*. While opening 'Fiscal Year' in prompt, it shows data like *2012.00,2013.00*...etc though in database data are liike *2012,2013*....etc. How can I rectify this decimal position??
Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
By the way, I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.5

Hi,
Go to your RPD Physical layer > change the Year column data type double into int then test it out. it should work
also u can try to use round function on the Dashboard prompt year column (edit prompt year column formula section add it)
example: Year data is 2010 then if u use round fxn
ROUND("MT BUSINESS DATE"."Year",0) this will give u 2010
ROUND("MT BUSINESS DATE"."Year",2) this will give u 2010.00
Thanks

OBIEE 11g Prompt calculation

Hi
I'm quite new with Obiee. Is it possible to make prompt which make calculation for a specific column?
For example:
When user open analysis, the analysis asks to enter a percent. User input percent: 60. After that one column's values are calculated automatically: (columnvalues x 0,6).
Thank you

In the prompt pull any (number) column, select as text/edit field, set Presentation variable and use it in your report.

OBIEE 11G prompt values are not applying

Hi There,
I am using OBIEE11g, I have a dashboard which consist of a prompt.
In prompt I have filter condition on Start date and End date with default values, when I run the dashboard it gives me some ODBC error, it doesn't applly the default values.
But when I click apply button on the prompt, it gets executed for the default values.
What should I do?
Plz help.
Thanks in advance,
Pushpesh Pallav

Hey André Fumian,
Did BEx query changed/modifications done??
Does the prompt variable condition is changed @BEx level ??
For all, what you did changes @BEx, will not automatically update the Universe.
To do the same job follow the suggested.
1. Open Universe
2. View == refresh Structure
3. Now you can see Updated things and deleted objects (######)
4. Say OK
5. Save Universe
6. Export it.
Now Open reports and see the LOV's showing up...
Hope it solves the issue.
Gracias...!!

OBIEE 11G Prompt population based on fact

Hi,
Can we populate a prompt(based on a dimension) with only those values for which there is data available in the fact table? eg. If we have prompts based on product and time dimensions and a particular date range is selected, the product prompt should only contain values for which data is available in the fact(on which the metrics are being reported).
Is there a way to do this? I understand that it might not be the most performant solution since the prompt population query would hit the fact table every time another prompt is changed.
One option is to limit values by the date prompt for the product prompt and define the implicit fact column in the RPD for the subject area. This would work for multi-column prompts but not for(I think) separate prompts in the same page.

This works for separate prompts by using SQL results(in product prompt) referencing presentation variable set by the date prompt

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

"Graph Prompt" align center in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have got a requirement to align the "Graph Prompt" center in OBIEE 11g (11.1.16.2 BP1). I could remove the boarder around the prompt using the following CSS.
<style>
.PTPageControl { border:0px; padding:0px; }
.PTPageEmbedded { border:0px;}
</style>
Can someone please let me know how to algin "graph prompt" center? Thanks in advance.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg622942%28v=VS.85%29.aspx
Basically, IE9 breaks flash ExternalInterface calls if your flash component is embedded with an object tag with an embed tag fallback, and the object id and embed name is the same.
The easiest workaround is to tell ie9 to render your page in IE8 Standards mode. To do this, insert this in the element:
 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" >
Otherwise, you might just want to use the object tag only or embed tag only.

How to set width of a prompt in OBIEE 11g?

Hi,
We have recently upgraded to OBIEE 11G.
In 10g all our prompts were fine. After upgrade, the prompts look distracted. All the prompts are Choice Lists.
The width of the prompts is varying depending on the width of the values that are coming from the DB.
Our requirement demands fixed width for the prompts. Is there any way to do it!!
Thanks!!

Issue in Dashboard Prompt of OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I had recently migrated from OBIEE 10g to OBIEE 11g.
I had found that there are lot of things which were working on OBIEE 10g are not working in OBIEE 11g.
For Eg:
I have scenario where i have 2 dashboards with different dashboard prompts.
- *1st Dashboard*: I have prompt with 4 columns Year, Month, Qtr and Week. I can filter the data based on the selection of prompt.i.e Summary Report showing all KPIs and when clicked on the any of the KPI it goes to Below report which shows the graphical view of past weeks data.
- Report: Here i show all the week Ids in the Graph format and when clicked on the any week id it navigates to 2nd Dashboard(below) with appropriate week populated in the prompt and show the detailed records.
- *2nd Dashboard*: I have prompt with 5 columns Year, Month, Qtr, Week and Day of the Week with some detailed report. Here the only Week Id should be pre populated and show data based on the week id selection in the above report.
The issue here in OBIEE 11g is, The month Id which was selected in 1st Dashboard prompt is also getting pre populated into the 2nd dashboard prompt. Which should not happen.
Note: This was working fine in OBIEE 10g.
Is there any way to fix this issue in OBIEE 11g.
Regards
Shyam

Hi Bala,
Thank you for your response.
I had tried that and resolved my problem but it was impacting other reports i.e
I have other reports in 1st Dashboard with different tabs, Here i want the prompt value to be persisted across the reports in same dashboard so that when i go to other tab with in same dashboard the prompt value should be pre-populated and the data should be filtered against that.
Now if i change the scope to page then i will be loosing this functionality.
It was working on OBIEE 10g and i lost this after migrating to OBIEE 11g.
Can you please help me in this regard.
Regards
Shyam

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
