OBIEE Error in Logical column

Hi,
I want to use dynamic variable and filter the dates. I am creating new logical column in BMM using the below case statement. I am getting the error.Please suggest me for this issue.
CASE statement:
CASE WHEN VALUEOF(CURRENT_MONTH_FNC_STG) = '08 2010' THEN
"FNC_STG"."A_FNC_INVOICES_T"."INVOICE_CREATION_DATE" BETWEEN ('08/01/2010 12:00:00 AM') AND ('08/05/2010 12:00:00 AM')
END
--Here CURRENT_MONTH_FNC_STG is dynamic variable....
Error:
[nQSError: 27002] Near <BETWEEN>: Syntax error [nQSError: 26012] .
Thank U

Hi...
if avg sales should be calculated to current month always.. then why don't you apply external filter ..
i hope you are having time dimension columns like: year and month which is holding values like 2010, 2009.. etc, and 1,2,3,4.. etc..
If then,
apply this filter..
Year = Current_Date
and
MonthNumber = Month(Current_Date)
you can't include those 2 r.h.s values directly..
click on filter option of year column then > Advance > convert this filter to SQL.

Derived Logical Column throws an error

Hello
I get the 46036 error from Answers when I add a field that I created in the BMM of the RPD. We are on OBIEE 10.3.4.2. I added a logical column to a table and applied a filter for a particular age band. I can check the change in without any errors but when I use that field with that expression I get the nQSError.
*[nQSError: 46036] Internal Assertion Condition pExpr->IsValueExpr(), file*
Ahsan/Naveen, any ideas on this? You guys have been always helpful with my questions.
Thanks,
Dan

Not sure if this helps but found a few things online on this..may just require a resave or re-import of the specific report (http://tipsonobiee.blogspot.com/2009/06/error-nqserror-46036-internal-assertion.html). If you are on Solaris 64 there is also a bug associated with this. "[nQSError 46036] Internal Assertion Error" After Upgrading to OBIEE 10.1.3.3.2 [ID 566463.1] suggesting to change the following parameter:
A workaround is to make only off line changes.
The bug states the following:
"The solution was to set the following in NQSConfig.INI

In my obiee admin tool, i have an rpd media i am trying to create a logical column with following expressions..
"MEDIA"."Media Facts"."Margin" * 1000
and it is throwing an error as Invalid Expression.
What could be the reason behind this??
cud somebody explain???
Edited by: Mahis on Nov 25, 2010 1:43 PM

the datatype is decimal.
i tried doing it but its not working!!!
"MEDIA"."Media Facts"."Margin" * 1000
i tried doing it in the expression builder window. i am able to do it there but when i close it and logical column window appears it says invalid expression

OBIEE 11.1.1..6.9 Logical Column Derived from existing columns

Hello,
I've just installed the last version 11.1.1.6.9 in my test environment and I already have a problem with the RPD.
I've some logical column derived from existing columns using an expression. (so far, so good)
With Adminsitration Tool (Last Version 11.1.1.6.9), when I launch the Consistency Check Manager I have the following error (I use the SampleAppLite RPD in order to reproduce the problem)
ERRORS:
SampleApp Lite :
[nQSError: 46008] Internal error: File server\objectmodel\Src\SOSecureRpGateway.cpp, line 479.
[nQSError: 23013] An error occurred when extracting the metadata definition for the Attribute '"SampleApp Lite"."D3 Orders (Facts Attributes)"."test"'.
The logical column test on "D3 Orders (Facts Attributes)" :
CASE WHEN "SampleApp Lite"."D3 Orders (Facts Attributes)"."Order Date" > "SampleApp Lite"."D0 Time"."Calendar Date" THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
The problem appears only when I use multiple source table in column expression.
Does anyone has the same problem ? I think it's easy to reproduce (I searched on OracleSupport but I didn't find anything yet)
Benjamin

I know that there is no relation between "SampleApp Lite"."D3 Orders (Facts Attributes)"."Order Date", "SampleApp Lite"."D0 Time"."Calendar Date", it's also the same thing in my own RPD.
But as it's working with the 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 version I don't understand why it's not working with 11.1.1.6.9.
Implicit fact column is not set on my repository, but I don't have any request with only dimensional column, so if my understanding is correct I don't need to use it. Also, the problem appears during the check of the repository not in answers.
thanks anyway

OBIEE 10g - Logical column with static value

I created a logical column with static numeric value in it and added it to presentation layer. The column is not showing up in Answers. All other columns I added are showing up. The issue is with this one only.
I have verified permissions on this column in presentation layer. I tried reloading server metadata in answers, restarting all services but it didn't help.
One thing I noticed this column is showing fx icon instead of Σ icon.

Kid,
The fx means it is a calculated column/formula and the sigma means that you've added some aggregation type to the column.
Either way it shouldn't matter and your column should be showing up.
I would attempt to create a new column and in the fx field try entering static text and see if that allows the column to be visible after dragging it to the presentation layer subject area.
Also what is the value that you are adding?

HI,
As I said, Age has valid datatype in physical layer but datatype is showing as "Unknown" in logical layer after upgrade to 11g. many other columns got same issue just for this logical table. I rebuild the logical column mapped to physical sources but it didn't fix the issue.
I hope you understand the issue.
Thanks

OBIEE Error[14041] Nested Aggregation measure are currently not supported

Hi,
Please provide workaround for the OBIEE Error[14041] Error in measure definiion. Nested aggregation measures are currently not supported.
I have two logical columns - Current YTD Invoice Quantity and Prior YTD Invoice Price. I want to create a column which is -
(Current YTD Invoice Quantity * Prior YTD Invoice Price)/ sum(Current YTD Invoice Quantity * Prior YTD Invoice Price)
sum in the denominator should be the sum of all rows returned by the report. So level based measures cannot be used as there are multiple report and dimension used may vary.
Columns Current YTD Invoice Quantity and Prior YTD Invoice Price are already aggregated to Sum.
If I try to do the sum on the physical column while creating logical column, the query is running for 6-7 hours and not giving any result. Both the columns belong to different alias table in physical layer.
Please let me know if you guys know any work around for this issue. Also let me know whether this type of nested aggregation are supported in 11g or not?
Thanks.

Hi Adil,
Yes, I did create a hierarchy for the time dimesion.
No, I was not able to specify the aggregate rule since the source of the logical column is another logical column
But the time hierarchy works for rows that is not based upon the SUM aggregate at the answers level.
Say I have 3 columns: Income,Expense, Bottom Line (formula : Income- Expense)
Income is created based upon a case statement in the Logical Column and
Expense is also created based upon a case statement in the Logical Column.
Income 1000 Rupees
Expense -300 Rupees
Bottom Line 700 Rupees (where the Bottom line is a row based upon the Answers aggregate formula
which is SUM(Income+Expense))
When I add a column year, I get the following output
Income 2009 500 Rs
Income 2008 500 Rs
Expense 2009 -150 Rs
Expense 2008 -150 Rs
Bottom Line 2009 700 Rs
Bottom Line 2008 700 Rs
The Bottom Line doesn't spread across the Year
Hope this helps you to understand what my problems is.
Thank you!

Display function Reset in RPD logical column expression

Hello All,
I want to reset display function like below in RPD's logical column expression (Its OBIEE 111171) . I am able to use reset RMIN value using "BY" syntax within obiee report but not able to apply same in RPD expression builder)
RMIN (COLX BY COLB)
Any idea ???
Thanks in advance.

Exactly. As I wrote, B contains some functions (mainly SUBSTR and CAST) that depend on other columns from the same dimension (all other colums are physical).
Funny thing is, when I drag D01.B into the analysis alone, it works all fine... Adding a measure also leads to the said error.

How to create logical columns for current period and prior period

Hello all.
Is there any way in obiee to create a new logica column in BMM layer that says "CURRENT PERIOD" AND "PRIOR PERIOD" OR ONE SINGLE COLUMN THAT SAYS "PERIOD".
In those columns what I need is if it a current period column it shoould have 03/01/2012-03/31/2012 (this month date range)
and in prior period column I shouldhave 02/01/2012 -02/29/2012(which is previous month date range).These columns I will be using in my reports.
Please help me if we can create any such columns with these conditions/requirements

Hi,I have already created he dynamic variables.But I am not getting how to use those variables and create the new logical columns in bmm layer.
this is what I am trying
case when VALUEOF("Current Month begin date"."Current Month begin date") ='..' and VALUEOF("Current Month end date"."Current Month end date")
='..' then 'current period' end
I don't really understand what I should write case when VALUEOF("Current Month begin date"."Current Month begin date") ='..'??

How To Create Logical column For Lastyear To Till Date

Hi All,
I Have to calculate Lastyear to Till Date for Logical Column.
Ex:I have Time Dime and Fact column and Dimension columns.
jan 2011 to oct 2012.
Please Let me know.
Thanks,
Abhi

Looks like you are not reading my messages
Since you are doing on logical columns getting this error.
Try this using physical columns then count from aggregate tab
CASE WHEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."OPEN_DT_WID" > 20110101 THEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."SR_WID" END
The same you can go with your variable
Or else the same can do by duplicating the existing Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" and just add above code.
or just use the below you dont use sum since already aggregation is happend for # of SRs
CASE WHEN "Core"."Dim - Date"."Year" = VALUEOf("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."CURRENT_CALENDAR_YEAR_LAST_YEAR") AND "Core"."Dim - Date"."Date" < VALUEOF("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."LAST_REFRESH_DATE_LAST_YEAR") THEN "Core"."Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" END
Hope this works, mark as correct

Logical column levels and aggregation

Hi all,
In order to have reliable results, I had to specify a dimension level in a logical column properties.
As a consequence, the generated query includes this level in the query (that's great), but no aggregation is performed afterwards. Therefore, when I display this measure alone in a flat table or a ticker, I have a set of detailed value instead of an aggregated value. The only place where I can see my aggregated value is in a pivot table.
In answers, I tried to :
- replace the default aggregation by an explicit SUM, or
- add a SUM() in the measure formula
but neither solved the issue.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Thanks in advance.
Ced.

Hi,
What is the source for AGO measures PriorDollars and PriorUnits?
AGO(CurrentUnits, '?',?)
AGO(CurrentDollars, '?',?)
Have you set up hierarchy correctly (because you said that the granularity in your fact table is at week grain) and it should be like this:
Fiscal Year > Fiscal Quarter > Fiscal Month > Fiscal Week
It depends on how did you define your TIME dimension.
Try maybe like this:
PriorYEARDollars = AGO(CurrentUnits, 'YEAR',1)
and the same for
PriorYEARUnits =AGO(CurrentDollars, 'YEAR',1)
Now, if you put in the report
YEAR
CurrentUnits
CurrentDollars
PriorYEARUnits
PriorYEARDollars
you'll get only three rows (for 3 years) with PRIOR YEAR measures.
Try it.
A good reference for understanding AGO:
http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2008/11/obiee-ago-and-todate-series.html
Also you need to set chronological key correctly for TIME dimension.

Logical Column based on expression leads to nQSError: 14020

Hallo everbody,
I've got two dimensions D01, D02 and a fact table F.
In Answers I have created analysises before containing D01.A and D02.A without problems.
Now, in the rpd-file, I added another logical column to dimension D01, say D01.B, which is based on an expression of type "SOME_FUNCTIONS(D01.A))".
If I drag D01.B and D02.A into an analysis I get the error message: nQSError: 14020 "None of the fact tables are compatible with the query request..."
What is the problem here? I don't quite understand what is going wrong here, as I only used some functions on a colum that is working...
Thanks for any help.
Best regards
Matt

Two physical logical source formulas for on logical column

I have two fact tables :
1. W_SERVICE_REQ_F(opened_dt_wid, assigned_dt_wid, closed_dt_wid, QUEUE_WID, SERVICE_REQ_WID): grain is one row per service request
2. W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A(DATE_WID, QUEUE_WID, NUM_OPENED, NUM_CLOSED, num_assigned)
The goal is to answer NUM_OPENED, NUM_CLOSED per queue in a day and be able to drill-down to those service requests.
Physical model:
Common_Date.row_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Opened_Dt).opened_dt_wid
Common_Date.row_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Closed_Dt).closed_dt_wid
Common_Date.row_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A.DATE_WID
Queue_d.row_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_F.QUEUE_WID
Queue._drow_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A.QUEUE_WID
Service_req_d.row_wid = W_SERVICE_REQ_F.SERVICE_REQ_WID. (there is no join between Queue_d and Service_req_d)
BMM Fact and LTSs:
I have W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A, W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Opened_Dt), W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Closed_Dt) as LTSs of "Fact - Service Request" in that order.
BMM Fact logical columns (measures):
# Closed
# Opened
Question:
I want to configure each of the above logical column with two physical columns of different aggregate forumlas. (to ensure queries that dont need service req number hit a table) (similar to http://www.gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/fragmentationlevel_based).
SUM(W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A.NUM_CLOSED)
COUNT("W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Closed_Dt)".SERVICE_REQ_WID)
Can someone help in configuring one logical column with two physical column sources with different aggregate formulas?
This is what I tried:
In # Opened Properites->Data Type, mapped it to both W_SERVICE_REQ_F (Closed_Dt).ROW_WID and W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A.NUM_CLOSED
In # Opened Properties->Aggregation tab, selected 'Default aggregation rule' as Count Distinct. In the bottom, Logical table sources override as follows:
W_SERVICE_REQ_DAY_A : SUM("Fact - Service Request"."# Closed")
W_SERVICE_REQ_F : COUNT("Fact - Service Request"."# Closed")
Should it be done in a different way?
