OBIEE Snapshot Report

Hi All,
The requirement is as follows:
I need to generate a new snapshot report having quarterly frozen metrics, i.e. these metrics which will not change after quarter end and this feature should not have any impact to any of the existing reports/dashboards.
The new reports have been added in a separate Tab/Dashboard as a part of existing Dashboard.
Could any one of you please suggest a way to achieve this?
Regards,
Chandu.

hi,
the only way is to transfer the data in the DB.
1 way is with javascript or 2,with writeback.Every 15 minutes insert data in a temp table that you want.and then to pass all the tables you want in the dashboard.Then truncate them...and so on....
this is the simple way,othewise with i-bot ,download the data in excel format,then with batcj job transfer to a appropriate folder and then use excternal tables to read them,
Sorry ,only workarounds
hope i helped....

  • OBIEE 11g Report UI not showing data

    Hi,
    On Obiee 11g Report, the query hit by the report at the backend shows results for all the columns but on UI only few of these columns show the data. From Query log, when I run the same query in the database I see all columns have data which is somehow not showing up on the UI end. What could be the problem? Can this be resolved or is it a bug in the OBIEE 11g?
    Regards
    VM

    Hi Vanaja M/Gurus,
    Is that your problem resolved?
    I'm facing same issue here.
    I was checking for solution/suggestions in blogs, but unfortunately i couldn't find much information in blogs too....
    Can you help me out to cross this hurdle, as this issue is in Production.

  • ToolTip in OBIEE 11G Reports when we hover on its data!!

    Hello gurus,
    I have a requirement where I have to display ToolTip in OBIEE 11G reports when one hovers on its data. For example, If I have a column in a report which displays "serial no." say the data in column is 1,2,3,4,5 etc. when I hover on 1, it should display name corresponding to it. when I hover on 2, it should display another name.
    These values which will be displayed on hover action can be hardcoded, they are static values.
    Thanks in advance !!

    Hi User,
    Try this , Goto Column Properties of a particular Column ->Data Format->Check mark "Override Default Data Format" and select
    Treat Numbers As : Custom
    In Custom Numeric Format, Copy paste this code: [html]<p title=\""Comments which you want to Mention" \">#
    Please Mark helpful if it is correct.

  • Weekly/Monthly Snapshot Report

    Hi,
    I have now three cubes Daily,Weekly and Monthly cubes...
    I had made copy of the daily cubes as weekly and monthly.. There is no difference as such structure wise...
    But what extra i need to do to make these weekly snapshot report and monthly snapshot report..
    Now all three cubes are added in multiprovider and multiprovider was used in the definition of the query..
    For daily cube report though, i had simply restricted infoprovider as daily cube and designed the query..
    But what about weekly and monthly snapshot reports?
    as snapshot reports are basically meant for comparing time periods how i could achive the same in reporting?
    What i am contemplating as follows:
    1) Since these are comparing different times ( for weekly snapshot, you must have at least two different weeks of data to compare ) i guess we need to include a time chararistic 0CALWEEK for Weekly snapshot, 0CALMONTH for Monthly snapshot..
    But even after including this time charactristic, how i would be comparing?
    i am not clear on how to creata a snapshot report
    What one has to do in the weekly and monthly cube to be able to compare the data on weekly/monthly basis?

    Simran,
    Weekly Snapshot means entire data has to restated against each week.
    For example to check open orders status week wise, entire open orders(till end of current week) has to restate against current week. at end of the week, need to pass remaining open orders as next weeks snap shot.
    In this way we will get snapshoting of open orders week wise. We can use these weeks to compare.
    For weekly snapshot add week to cube, and at end of each week pass current week closing balances as next week opening balances + transactions in that Week gives snap shot of that week.
    For example Check: [HOW TO HANDLE INVENTORY MANAGEMENT SCENARIOS IN BW (NW2004)|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f83be790-0201-0010-4fb0-98bd7c01e328]
    Snapshot scenario.

  • MDX Generation Issues (using Evaluate) in OBIEE Analysis Report

    Hello Everyone,
    I am trying to use Evaluate function in MDX (on a OBIEE 11g Analysis report) to restrict the number of values that i am pulling from the Essbase cube. The MDX Evaluate syntax looks something like this
    EVALUATE('TOPCOUNT(%1.members,100,([Dimension1],[Dimension2],[Dimension3],[Dimension4]))',"Accounts"."Gen10,Accounts")
    EVALUATE('TOPCOUNT(%1.members,100,([Dimension1],[Dimension2],[Dimension3],[Dimension4]))',"Products"."Gen10,Products")
    I am putting the above evaluate formula in the "selected columns" on the OBIEE Analysis report. So i am pulling accounts, products and the measure from the essbase cube.
    However I am getting the following error when the analysis report is run
    Query Status: Aggr Essbase Error: *Repeated dimension [Accounts] in MDX query*
    Do we need any configuration changes/ settings on the RPD model to ensure we dont get this error?
    Regards
    Aby

    Hi veeravalli,
    Thank you for you reply. I got it.
    However, any idea to solve the issue?
    I tried to do it in RPD by case when,
    e.g. Acutal Sales: case when scenario='Actual' then salesamount end
    Budget Sales: case when scenario='Budget' then salesamount end
    Actual/Budget%: (Actual Sales/Budget Sales) *100
    So there is no error, Actual Sales and Budget Sales are correct, but Actual/Budget % shows nothing in report
    Thanks.

  • Different calculation on each column in table in obiee 11g report??

    Hi ,
    I have to display values in a table for measures in obiee 11g report which should hold different calculation on each column. For ex:
    Result 1:
    Flag  Display   Transaction  Amount
      C      'A'                 2              3
      C      'B'                 3               0
           SubTotal1            5             3
    Result 2:
    Flag  Display   Transaction  Amount
      H      'C'                 2              11
      H      'D'                  0              0
           SubTotal2          2             11
    Result 3:
    Flag  Display   Transaction  Amount
      H      'C'                 1              0
      H      'D'                  1            0
           SubTotal3          2            0
    Final Result:(Transaction shd hold :-subtotal1-subtal2 , Amount should hold:-subtotal1-subtal2+subtota3)
    Flag   Display               Transaction         Amount
    C    'total tran(1-2)              3                     8
           Total Amnt(1-2+3)'     
    Please help me how can i achieve this ... ??? I am new to OBIEE 11g.
    Thanks,
    Pavi

    There are a few things I cannot understand; I'm assuming Transaction and Amount are fact columns. Then how do they have different values for the same values of Flag and Display ??
    Anyway, sub total can be achieved by going to edit view for the table and from columns and measures area under the Layout pane click on the summation icon and select After.  This will automatically display a grand total value at the bottom of each fact column.
    Now, to get the final result, say Total Transaction you can add a dummy column and edit its formula.
         Total Transaction = trans_subtotal1 - trans_subtotal2 and
         Total Amount = amt_subtotal1 - amt_subtotal2 + amt_subtotal3
         Now if we could say that trans_subtotal1 is the total of transaction value when Flag = 'C' or something like that then you can get this value of subtotal1 by using the formula FILTER(SUM("Subject Area"."Folder".Transaction Column") USING (DESCRIPTOR_IDOF("Subject Area"."Folder"."Flag column") = 'C')).  Similarly we can obtain subtotal2 and subtract them to get the total transaction value.  But I am sure if we can do this because for the same values of Flag and Display, Transaction has different values.  But by using the above formula, the values we obtain for subtotals 2 and 3 will be the same.  So calculating Total Amount would be a problem.
    The above formula is obtained by going to edit formula and selecting the filter option at the bottom of the edit dialog box.
    Hope I made my point clear

  • Snapshot report showing wrong instance on grid control!!!

    Hi
    On one of the cluster environments, Even though I run snapshot report on instance 2, report shows instance 1. This i happening on one set of cluster environment. Other cluster instances are working fine.
    Let me know if you have seen such behavior and fix...
    Thanks,

    It does not matter how many instances you have running in a RAC cluster ... you have one and only one database.
    Define your use of the term "snapshot." We have no idea to what you are referring.

    Web Conference: https://conference.oracle.com/imtapp/app/cmn_jm_hub.uix?mID=150764532
    BIWA Wednesday TechCast Series - Sixth Event!
    This presentation will showcase different options for OBIEE-based Analytical Reporting such as:
    1) Oracle BI Applications for supported Oracle E-Business Suite Modules and other Oracle Applications.
    It will include real world experiences for implementing BI Apps Version 7.9.6
    2) Custom OBIEE Development against E-Business Suite (when no BI apps are available)
    3) Migration of Discoverer EUL to OBIEE RPD using Migration Utility
    While OBIEE and BI Apps are clearly the strategic analytics reporting direction from Oracle, only certain Analytics applications are available. Sometimes all customer needs for BI reporting may not be met by these pre-built analytics. For instance, JD Edwards has pre-built ETL connectors only for Financial Analytics. While more BI Apps and ETL connectors are in the pipeline, how can users meet their reporting needs today as they go live in near future? In this session, we will look at several short and medium term solutions without deviating from the long term strategic goal of using pre-built BI applications to reduce the overall risk.
    Several real life situations will be evaluated with demonstration of the steps involved such as how to Migrate Discoverer reports to OBIEE with the highest degree of automation. Likewise, we will cover how DBI views be used for custom OBIEE reporting.
    Presenter: Shyam Varan Nath is an OBIEE Architect for IBM Global Business Services with extensive experience in implementing OBIEE and BI Apps. He has worked on several Oracle Data Warehousing Projects for customers including Citigroup, Air Force, Land O'Lakes, and Blue Cross Blue Shield Association.

  • URGENT: OBIEE Lineage Reporting

    Experts,
    I need to generate a report in Answers which will show me the following info:
    Answer Request/Report Name, Answers Column Name, Answers Folder Name, DB Column Name, DB Table Name .
    In Oracle Discoverer there is EUL Admiinstration Business Area, which can do some thing like this but know not sure if OBIEE has something like this. Any valuable info on this is much appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Firstly, Im not sure why people think putting URGENT in the title , do we look at this thread before the others ?
    Have you googled OBIEE Lineage reporting? Do you fully understand the Presentation Services and BI Servef components ?
    What you need to do is run a Repository Documentation export from the Admin tool - This will give you Phyiscal layer through to Subject Area (Presentation Layer) Mapping.
    Then run a catalogue manager export of the reports in your presentation catalogue, you can pull back all the attributes from a given answers request you have asked for, you can run a dashboard report from the catalogue manager also if you wish to look further.
    Once you have the two outputs I suggest you load them into a database table so you can join them efficiently, model them into your RPD and you have your equiverlant to the Disco EUL Admin layer.
    Hope this helps,

  • OBIEE 11g Report-When drilling down to lower level, totals are not matching

    Hi All,
    I am creating a report in Analytics 7.9.6.3 , OBIEE 11g - Let’s say Budget Cost/Actual Cost based on the Date Dimension
    Have selected the Fiscal Year Dim, Fact Budget Cost, Fact Actual Cost
    FY BCost ACost
    2011 100 120
    2012 150 140
    Total 250 260
    But here when I am drilling down from Year to Quarter and Period - The values are not matching with the totals....
    FY FY Qrt BCost ACost
    2011 2011 Q1 80 100
    2011 Q2 100 90
    2011 Q3 110 120
    2011 Q4 90 130
    Total 380 440
    Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter Budget Cost and Actual Cost are not returning correct results – When selecting cost's by fiscal year, or filtering on a specific fiscal year, the amount returned does not equal the fiscal year total;
    when I am drilling down to Quarter and Period Level the BCost & ACosts are bumping the Numbers as above and not matching with totals
    Any suggestions?

    Check out the query in both the times.Execute against database and try to sum the data for quarter/period and compare it with Year data.
    Just try to differentiate is it a report total that is getting wrong or the data in the database table itself is getting wrong stored.
    Mark as helpful if it helps.
