OBIEE Essbase skip-level hierarchy
Is it possible to setup OBIEE and Essbase to be able to model skip-level hierarchy? It is obvious with connection to the relational database. How the essbase should designed and populated with data to faciliate this type of hierarchy?
Refer this http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/overview/obiee-essbase-modeling-guide-130897.pdf for Modeling. And for any Essbase releated question post it in Essbase forum Essbase

OBIEE 10g - Ragged & Skip Level Hierarchy
Hi Frnds,
I'm aware of the fact that OBIEE 11g supports Ragged & Skip Level Hierarchy. But I'm looking for some heads up while implementing the same on OBIEE 10g using Oracle DB as source. I have done this before for Essbase Data Source but now waiting for my Oracle dataset for design.
Has anyone actually implemented in Real Time Project? Pls share your challenges like:
- Dimensional Hierarchies Challenges
- Drill Down Challenges
- Report Challenges
Thanks,
Deepak
Edited by: Deepak Gupta on Aug 11, 2011 5:18 AMDeepak,
10g does not handle the idea of Skip hierarchies and the ragged hierarchies definitely has its limitations.
We've implemented several projects using Essbase and SAP BW for Oracle BI 10g. The biggest issue is that in Answers creates a new column for each drill down selection when attempting to navigate down a hierarchy. Though this is klugy it does work and provides the data the user is looking for. It is however, not aesthetically please when compared to other tools or now Oracle BI 11g which satisfies this issue with a native drill-down tree folder structure.
My opinion and advice would be to upgrade to 11g as soon as possible to enjoy these new features. -
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,

Ragged Hierarchy and Skip Level Hierarchy
Hi all,
I am confused with ragged and skip level hierarchy, as i read some documents related to obiee 11g.
Will you please explain with an example the difference between ragged hierarchy and skip level hierarchy and also when to use these hierarchies?

Design a dimension with skip-level hierarchy and its ETL
Hi gurus,
I'm trying to understand how to set up and use a skip level dimension and its corresponding mapping in OWB 11.2.
A simplified version of my hierarchy would be like Total-Brand-LOB-Product where Some Products connect directly to Brand and others connect to LOB.
My first question is about designing this kind of dimension in OWB. Is it better to create a single hierarchy with the Product level skipped to Brand level or 2 hierarchies - one Total-Brand-LOB-Product and the other Total-Brand-Product?
My second question is about creating its corresponding ETL mapping. Selecting each option above result in 2 FKs for Brand and LOB in Product level. What is the correct design to fill these 2 FKs?
Any help/guidance would be truly appreciated!
Thanks,
ImanHi, 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.

Skipped and ragged level hierarchy in OBIEE11g
Hi
I tried creating aboth skipped and ragged hierarchy in OBIEE 10g
It works fine without error
SO I have doubt why they have introduced this concept in OBIEE 11g, Is there any more feture about this
Please help me@Abdul : can you please let us know how you have implemented skip level hierarchy in 10g..
actually we need to implement it ,didn't find anything in google search ...
thanks In advance -
Poor performance when using skip-level hierarchies
Hi there,
currently we have big performance issues when drilling in a skip-level hierarchy (each drill takes around 10 seconds).
OBIEE is producing 4 physical SQL statements when drilling f.e. into the 4th level (for each level one SQL statement). The statements runs in parallel and are pretty fast (the database doesn't need more than 0,5 seconds to produce the result), but ... and here we have probably somewhere a problem ... putting all the 4 results together in OBIEE takes another 8 seconds.
This are not big datasets the database is returning - around 5-20 records for each select statement.
The question is: why does it take so long to put the data together on the server? Do we have to reconfigure some parameters to make it faster?
Please guide.
Regards,
RafaelIf you really and exclusively want to have "OBIEE can handle such queries" - i.e. not touch the database, then you had best put a clever caching strategy in place.
First angle of attack should be the database itself though. Best sit down with a data architect and/or your DBA to find the best setup possible physically and then when you've optimized that (with regard to the kind of queries emitted against it) you can move up to the OBIS. Always try t fix the issue as close to the source as possible. -
Dear all
We have a client with an interesting problem. I was wondering if the group could offer any feedback on this design question, where we think it involves a concept called 'skip levels'. The client is using Oracle 9.0.2 with their data mart cube held as ROLAP. Our first thoughts are that what they want to do is better served by using a true OLAP tool such as Oracle Express, or Oracle 9i OLAP, which deals with skip level dimensions easier. Anyway, here's the problem :
"For our warehouse project, we need some dimensions (initially: account, company) that use a skip level hierarchy. This means that the lowest level dimensions are of the same level (G/L account or company) and they need to roll up in a structure of varying levels, before they come together again in a highest level.
Ideally, we would like to use a data structure that can be used transparently by the user and allows for rollups of amounts through the dimension. We would like to be able to populate the dimension through OWB and to query the data using both Crystal reports v9 and BI beans and possibly other tools that recognize the Oracle data warehouse concept.
The two solutions we are aware of are:
1. Insert Dummy levels:
This is not a nice solution but is will work and it is simple.
2. Insert a helper table that contains the higher level account with all the children (as per Ralph Kimball)
This seems a cumbersome solution but I am sure it would work also. The question is how the Oracle's BI beans and the CWM2 metadata would recognize this and how we can make this transparent to the user.
I am sure there are other solutions to the problem. It seems like the problem would be solved by the next release of Oracle (9.0.3?), which allows us to deal with skip level hierarchies through CWM2 (which I believe this is). The solution we choose should also allow us to easily upgrade to the new skip level hierarchy, which I would expect to be easier to use then the above."
The main thing to bear in mind here is that they want to implement a ROLAP solution, using Oracle 9i tables, dimensions and heirarchies. It also has to work with Oracle Warehouse Builder, take advantage of the CWM2 metadata (if possible) and work with the BI Beans.
Any thoughts on this? Does anyone know how Oracle are going to cater for skip-level dimensions with the next release? Is this through the improved support for the CWM2 metadata standard for ROLAP cubes, or is the customer best of going to the true OLAP 'Analytic Workspace'? If we ignore a MOLAP solution, what's the best way of dealing with this, in such a manner that it's transparent to query tools, and isn't too much of a 'hack'?
Many thanks in advance,

[email protected]--------------As part of my search i've uncovered an article by Ralph Kimball on using 'helper tables' to deal with ragged hierarchies.
http://www.dbmsmag.com/9809d05.html
This advocates using a table between the fact table and the dimension. Quoting from Mr. Kimball;
"You can solve this modeling problem by inserting a helper table between the dimension table and the fact table, as shown in Figure 3 (http://www.dbmsmag.com/9809d05.html#fig3). Amazingly enough, you don't have to make any changes to either the dimension table or the fact table; you just rip the join apart and insert the helper table.
The helper table contains one record for each separate path from each node in the organization tree to itself and to every node below it. There are, then, more records in the helper table than there are nodes in the tree. In Figure 3 we need a total of 43 records in the helper table. See if you can work this out.
Each record in the helper table contains the fields:
- Parent Customer Key
- Subsidiary Customer Key
- Depth From Parent
- Lowest Flag
- Topmost Flag.
If you are descending the tree from certain selected parents to various subsidiaries, you join the dimension table to the helper table and the helper table to the fact table with the joins as shown in Figure 3. The Depth From Parent field counts how many levels the subsidiary is below the parent. The Lowest Flag field is True only if the subsidiary has no further nodes beneath it. The Topmost Flag field is True only if the parent has no further nodes above it.
The beauty of this design is that you can place any normal dimensional constraint against the Customer dimension table and the helper table will cause all the fact table records for the directly constrained customers plus all their subsidiaries to be correctly summarized. In other words, you can use your standard relational databases and your standard query tools to analyze the hierarchical structure."
My question is - has anyone tried to implement this with OWB, or with the Oracle ROLAP data warehouse in general, reporting through Discoverer or BI Beans? Any opinions?
thanks

Value based hierarchies, Skip Level Hierarchies
Hello,
I need to create hierarchy based on column value , Please give me some details on implementing value based hierarchies and skip level hierarchies in obiee 10.1.3.
Thank youWith 10.3 i do not think we have a inbuilt solution to build value based hierarchies, you have to flatten the hierarchy and build a level based hierarchy.
OBIEE 11g has value based hierarchies feature.
refer this one for 11g.

Help with Skip Level dimensions in OWB 10.2 (Paris)
Hi all,
I'm trying to understand how to set up and use a skip level dimension in OWB 10.2. A simplified version of my hierarchy would be:
Plant - Equipment - Assembly - Item
Where Some Items connect directly to equipment and others connect to assemblies. How sould I define this in the Dimension wizard or editor in OWB?
Can I create a single dimension hierarchy and in the Item level put Skip Level as "Equipment"?
OR
Do I need 2 hierarchies - one Plant-Equipment-Assembly-Item and the other Plant-Equipment-Item?
There is an example in the Users guide that created 2 hierarchies -
TOTAL-GROUP-PRODUCT and TOTAL-PRODUCT
In the example, they show the PRODUCT in TOTAL-PRODUCT setting the skip level field. I don't understand why that is necessary if it is 2 seperate hierarchies.
Any help/guidance would be appreciated!
Thanks,
MikeHi Donna,
Perhaps JP can expand on his answer. In my case, I did go the route of seperate hierarchies. It is a bit of work defining multiple hierarchies and my example was much simplified. We actually have about 8 levels in the primary hierarchy and 6 levels in the second. It does work well with the cubes by using 2 roles for the dimension - one for each hierarchy.
I saw that truly "ragged hierarchies" or "level hierarchies" can be defined in OWB and deployed as MOLAP but MOLAP has quite a few drawbacks - no SCDs and requires analytic workspaces etc. I haven't done anything with these yet.
Our data is a classic manufacturing Bill of Material so the level hierarchy would be the easiest to manage, though I'm not sure how easy it would be to report on! I do want to shield my end-users from CONNECT-BY madness. -
OBIEE 11g Parent Child hierarchy
Hi,
I'm trying to setup a parent-child hierarchy dimension. I have setup a new hierarchy dimension using numeric keys but want to display another field in the hierarchical column on a report e.g. employee fullname & not the member_key based on a numeric value. Can this be done & how do you do it? All the examples I have seen use varchar2 type columns as the keys to do this.
Thanks in advance, Phil
My Setup
=============
Dimension - logical level
===============
member key = employee_id
parent-child table source
===============
member key = employee_id
parent key = supervisor_id
relationship distance = levels_removed
leaf node identifier = isleaf
Employee logical folder
==============
employee_id ( number)- primary key
full_name (varchar2) - unique key
supervisor_id ( number)
Closure table
=========
employee_id ( number)
supervisor_id ( number)
level ( number)
isleaf ( number)Thanks for the link Suresh but the aggregations are working correctly.
My problem is only at the display level. I need to create a dashboard that displays the complete hierarchy.
So for example if I have this hierarchy:
- Steven King
- Adam Frip
Alexis Bull
Anthony Cabrio
Alberto Erraruriz
Den Raphaely
I want the dashboard to display immediately that complete hierarchy. If someone adds a member to the hierarchy in the database, the dashboard should display this new member without having to manually modify the dashboard.
- Steven King
- Adam Frip
Alexis Bull
Anthony Cabrio
- Alberto Erraruriz
Mozhe Atkinson
Den Raphaely
Also, if I just manually open the hierarchy and save the dashboard, if "Steven King" is replaced by "Shanta Vollman", the dashboard doesn't like it and returns a result looking like:
- Adam Frip
Alexis Bull
Anthony Cabrio
- Alberto Erraruriz
Mozhe Atkinson
Den Raphaely
+ Shanta Vollman
So I'm looking for some option that will tell OBIEE to open the hierarchy without having to specify "Drill down on member "Steven King"", "Drill down on member "Adam Frip"...
I hope I'm explaining correctly... -
Hello All,
We are doing federation b/w essbase and relational datasources. All our region level information (upto state) is in essbase and city level information is present in the relational tables for which drill down to city to fetch those details.
The problem that I am facing here is with the Essbase Defaults. For the Time dimension in essbase, its defaulted to most recent month (Oct)
So now in the report lets say you pulled state and dollars, that report will fetch from the cube for the most recent month. So far good but now when you drill to state, it wont pass the current month to the state. Is there a way to pass that current month to the city level SQL query.
Well I guess this would be problem with every other dimension because of those essbase defaults. In this case of months, I would be able to create some default Current date variables or something and would be able to work it but for several other dimesions the defaults will always create me a problem
I have a frequency dim(DLY, QTD, MTD, YTD) in essbase which is defaulted to 'DLY'. so how would I be able to pass the essbase defaults to relational queries??
In the reports, we can use default values for dashboard prompts but was wondering how would we do it in ANSWERS?
Please advice
Thanks

Aggregation plan/Skip level aggregation for model with a cumulative measure
I have planning data in the following format.
Project Department Name Task Date Units of work completed
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task1 01/01/2008 12
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task1 01/21/2008 3
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task1 03/01/2008 8
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task1 4
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task2 01/21/2008 5
PRO1 DEPARTMENT1 Task2 9
PRO1 DEPARTMENT2 Task1 01/01/2008 20
PRO1 DEPARTMENT2 Task1 02/11/2008 6
PRO1 DEPARTMENT2 Task3 01/15/2008 15
Note: The rows having blank dates indicate remaining work for that task
Based on user requirements, I have created a OLAP model as follows
Dimensions:
1. All Projects-->Projects
2. All Department-->Department
3. All Tasks --> Tasks
4. Year-->Month-->Day
Measures:
1. Total units of work (Irrespective of date)
2. Cumulative units of work completed (Based on the date)
If someone has worked on similar models before, I would be thankful if they can help me with
1) An aggregation plan for these measures. (Basically, for my first measure, I would want to get a cumulative total across my time dimension, and for my other measure, I would like to see the total units, whatever date I pick, for example, for Dep1, Task1, this measure should show 27 on 01/01/08 and also on 01/21/08 and also when I roll up and look at year 2008, I still need 27 in this column)
2) Is it ok to apply Skip level aggregation to this type of calculations, or would that result in some problems?
Any and All suggestions to implement this are welcome.
Thanks,
BharatHi,
Can you build time dimension to include as many years as your application needs (2000 to 2025 say)? Then you can simplify the model a lot by defaulting the records with remaining units -- the ones with no date -- with the last date in your time dimension (31-DEC-2025). So in a sense, you're loading them as if they'll be complete on 31-DEC-2025.
Also you should have a grand total level (ALL_YEARS say) along time dimension which contains a single member which includes all the years.
Cube with 3 dimensions: Projects, Dept, Task, Time and 1 Fact: Units
You can use calculated measures to get the results you want
1. Total units of work (Irrespective of date) ... reference top most member. Will include all -- completed and incomplete units of work.
Expression: cube1_units(time 'ALL_YEARS_1').. or use olap dml function to get the last member programatically if desired... Alternate Expression: cube1_units(time limit(time to time_levelrel eq 'ALL_YEARS')).
2. Cumulative units of work completed (Based on the date)
2a: Create formula/measure which is a regular Cumulative summation of Units .... Note: you need a Period-To-Date calculation set to sum up all peers under ancestor at level: ALL_YEARS (instead of year)
This will include all completed units until the day in question. Since incomplete units are on the last day, they will not count.. You may need to add a special check for the last day.
Use another formula to reference 2a appropriately across all levels of time...
Formula for Measure #2: if time_levelrel eq 'DAY' then 2a else 2a(time statlast(limit(time to bottomdescendants using time_parentrel time(time time))))
For higher levels of time (above day), you should reference the Cumulative units of work for the last day of the relevant period. E.g. To get completed units of work for October 2011, you need to reference the value of 2a. for last day of the Month: 31-Oct-2011.
