OBIEE sorting OBIEE11g
Hello,
We have to dynamically arrrange a graph based on sorting on another graph in OBIEE11g
We are asked to show the TopN customers with different measure columns say by Col A and Col B
In my crieteria , i get the TOPN customers ,ColA and ColB and in the results tab I select a table, TopN cust , ColA and ColB are given. Here I can sort it based on ColA or on ColB and data on the rest of the columns is ordered based on the column being sorted
The reqmt is to plot these in individual graphs, like Graph1 : TopN cust by Col A ; Graph2 TopN cust by ColB .
1) How to set up a prompt which will lets the user to choose the sorting option on ColA or ColB
2) how to enable the graph to change based on the selection ?
3) Is it possible to sort graphs dynamically in OBIEE?
plz pour in your ideas.

Dynamic Column sorting in OBIEE?
Hi,
Does anybody knows how to sort columns dynamically in a report on asc or desc order.Any automatic mechanism.Gianluca Ancarani wrote:
You can use in the RPD (in the Business Model Layer) a specific COLUMN SORT to sort a scecific Logical Column, in this way a column in a report is always sorted, but you have to build the specific COLUMN SORT inside the physical table or in the business model layer.
See this blog: http://obiee101.blogspot.it/2008/11/obiee-sort-order-column-property.html
Regards,
GianlucaI think the user is trying to sort the report based on the Names of the columns rather than the data in a specific column. -
Hi,
I have one prompt requirement.
I want to show custom values in prompt depending on the values present in column.
e.g. The values present in column are aaa, bbb,ccc etc.
I want to show value='Impr' when aaa else 'Unimpr' in prompt.
I am using OBIEE 11g.
Please let me know if u need more information.
Thanks.[url http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/double_column]OBIEE11g double columns

Hi,
My users have a specific request in a OBIEE report. The report is based on 2 tables connected directly to the transaction system in AS400/DB2. The reason is the report must show real-time data. So far so good, OBIEE is able to connect and show the live data without caching the results (disabled the cache for these tables).
The problem is they need to see the rows in a report in a chronological order (the newest row inserted on DB2 in the bottom). I don't have any cronological column in the table to apply the OBIEE sort. OBIEE Admin Tools shows the desired order when I click on "view data" option in the Physical Table. The records are being displayed exactly as I need.
When I created the report on OBI Presentation, I can see on Advanced Tab that it includes a default "Order By" clause in the SQL Statement. I was able to remove the distinct by disabling the database feature DISTINCT_SUPPORTED in the rpd file.
Also, I tried to comment the //SORT_TYPE = "binary"; in the NQSConfig.ini but it didn't solve the problem. Tried to use a logical ROWNUM column but AS400/DB2 does not support this type of column.
How can I get rid of the "order by" clause in a OBIEE report? I must have to disable this default order on OBIEE to bring the default table order (as the rows were inserted).
I appreciate your help,
Thanks.Hi Saichand,
Thanks for your answers.
I've uncked the ORDERBY_SUPPORTED feature, restarted BI Server and Presentation. My report does not have any column flagged to sort, even thought it still applying an order by clause in the SQL Statement. I went to the Advanced tab on Answers I can see the order clause in the SQL statement and this is the log generated by the query:

It seems that OBIEE did not remove the "order by" as expected.
Can you please let me know how to force OBIEE to do not use the order by clause?
Thanks,

Could you please let us know the issue.This is my production box.Please give some solution ASAP.Hi,
I do not see any issues in this log. However If I understand you correctly, after you log in to the dashboards by typing your username and password, the page hanged. If it is so, there could be an issue with any initialization blocks in your .rpd which you might want to check. There might be a variety of reasons again for this, the database connection could not have been successful, the connection error-ed out etc.
I would like to ask you one more question as well, what was the last activity on your server? Did you deploy any new .rpd?

Hi All,
I am trying to plot a graph in OBIEE 11g answers which shows Calendar Month in X-axis and percentage of marks in Y-axis,
in such a way that Calendar Month in X-axis should be in the order Jan Feb Mar Apr .....(where as now it is Apr Aug Feb ... which is sorted in ascending order) Calender month is a calculated column in the report which has the following calculation
case when cal_month=1 then 'Jan'
case when cal_month=2 then 'Feb'
case when cal_month=12 then 'Dec'
How do i arrange the calendar month in a proper order of Jan Feb Mar .....
Please advise
Thanks,
LonaDI've already mentioned OOB column to use, I'm not sure about your data. If you dont have it then might go for workaround to get number 1 to 12.
BTW:Existing column 'Col month' as referred is not helping you?
For ex: work around might be something like
cast(substring("Year",3,2) as int)
Mark if helps

you can create same in rpd so that you can sort it._
Or else can go with work around using year column as above_

Sorting of user list in 'ACT AS' by displayname -OBIEE 11G
Hi,
I have configured 'ACT AS' successfuly in obiee 11g . We have written the following query to populate user name and displayname in the act as drop down .
<getValues>EXECUTE PHYSICAL CONNECTION POOL DAA2.DAA2 select USERNAME, DISPLAYNAME from SIEBEL_USERS </getValues>
With this query the list is getting ssorted by USERNAME .
However, our client expects the user list to be populated in the ascending order of the DISPLAYNAME.
I tried modifying the above query as below in the xml file to implement the same .
<getValues>EXECUTE PHYSICAL CONNECTION POOL DAA2.DAA2 select USERNAME, DISPLAYNAME from SIEBEL_USERS Order by 2 desc </getValues>
But the liste is still getting sorted by USERNAME. Could anyone give some pointers to achieve this requirement ?
Regards,
Karan
Edited by: kchadha2 on Sep 12, 2011 7:21 PMThanks Veeravalli, I did exactly the same. Editing the registry didn't help so I deleted the service from registry and create it again and before that added the following in my installSVC file in the section you mentioned
set JAVA_VM=-server
set MEM_ARGS==-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m -XX:-UseSSE42Intrinsics
But it is still not working, I am getting the same error but now it says

one of the things I didn't mention though was that when I create the service, I run the installAdmServer_Service.cmd file as "Run as Administrator", only then the service gets installed. Can this be related to the fact that this windows service needs to be run under admin account? or Run as Administrator? I am guessing because I tried various heap sizes and also edited my setDomainEnv.cmd and commEnv.cmd file to use 1024 as heap size it but still didn't work and it is failing may be while loading the class? If that is the case then how to run this services as administrator? Am I missing anything else?
Thanks,

OBIEE 11.1.1.5 disable sorting
Hi,
I am finding some issue when sorting the columns by ascending most of the time. The records are getting removed from the report. By default, now 11.1.15 introduced sorting on all columns including the measure columns as well and there is no way to disable them by column or remove this feature from the report as well. Did any one find any alternative way to disable this sorting in this version of OBIEE. Let me know the solution.
Regards
VMYes, definitely there is a problem the way OBIEE 11.1.1.5 has made this a default behavior including all the dimension columns as well fact measure columns also available for sorting and it acts wierd for pivot table issue but doesnt throw any error for table view.
Will be taken up by oracle support as a bug and might get fixed in its later version may be.

Hi Frenz,
i`m fresher to OBIEE, i need the step for "Send a OBIEE report to non OBIEE user (Client) Mail in OBIEE11g". searched in on-line got only OBIEE 10g Documents that one also followed but no result.Please help Me....the Step to config a Mail for external user.
Thnaks,Have the SMTP server configured by your admin and create agent privilege given to your role. Then Schedule an Agents to yourself/Testuser with the report to be sent to external user as its Content. Set up the Delivery Profile of the recipient. In the set up for email device - delivery profile specify the external email address. This might be useful

Obiee11g upgrade: Preventing authenticated-user from accessing obiee system
HI Gurus,
We have a problem regarding security and request your inputs. Please see the issue below:
Current Situation:
We have successfully integrated OBIEE11g with our enterprise MS Active DIrectory. With the current set up, any user in the company will be successfully authenticated by MSAD and he/she is able to login to obiee and reach the new bieehome page. I want to prevent this.
Expected:
Only users who belong to certain AD Groups should be able to acess obiee
How do I prevent this? In our MSAD we have AD groups built to identify OBIEE users. These ad Groups are pre-fixed with OBIEE_ (Ex: OBIEE_Marketing etc). Only the users belong to these groups should be allowed to login.
In 10g, we made use of privileges to explicitly grant access to obiee. We made use of privileges like 'Access to Dashboard' etc. As a result, even if a user is successfully authenticated by LDAP MSAD , he wont be able to reach obiee dashboards if he is not a member of designated GROUP. In 11g, since there is a new page called 'BIEE HOME', non-authorized users are able to reach this page.
Any help would be highly appreciated
--JoeI have created an SR with Oracle and as per the responses I got, it looks like this is an issue as there is no way to restrict access to bieehome page.
Anyone has any workarounds? This is really holding up our 11g release

Sort Order option disabled when using OBIEE analysis?
Hi everyone
I've build a BIP report using the online layout editor. My data model is based on an existing OBIEE analysis. When I go into the data model and go into the properties of a column, the Sort Order option is somehow defaulted to "No Ordering" and the dropdown menu is actually disabled, so I can't change anything. Is this normal/expected functionality or am I missing something somewhere?
ThanksI don't think it is possible. Here are the sort statements in this program.
<u>Without Serialization</u>
sort t_idoc_control_r
by sndprn sndprt sndpfc mestyp
mescod mesfct test serial.
<u>With Serialization</u>
sort t_idoc_control_s
by sndprt sndprn obj_type chnum chcou.
In neither of them, the document number is used. There is no guarantee that they will be processed in the document number order, even if serialization is used.

Sort in OBIEE Answers - Desc Nulls Last
I want to sort Desc on a Answers column, but want NULLS last. Where do I set it?
For instance I can write SQL
select * from T1 order by c2 Nulls first;
NULLS last is default behavior in Oracle SQL
However, via OBIEE Answers, I see when I use DESC Nulls are on top, I want them on bottom.
Where should I set it?Hi shyamvaran,
What is the value of your "NULL_VALUES_SORT_FIRST" parameter in your NQSConfig.INI file? By default, this is set to OFF. Which is probably what your seeing i.e. if NULLs are last, and you are sorting in descending order, then you would expect to see NULLs first.
If you want NULLs to show up last when sorting in descending order, then set the above parameter to ON and bounce your services. That should take care of you.
Otherwise, you can do a work around. Create a hidden column in your report. Set it's formula to IFNULL(C2,'aaaaaaaaaaa') . This way it'll be alphabetically first i.e. last in descending order. Set this column to sort descending and then set it to hidden. It should sort your report in the desired order and it should be hidden from view.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,

Column Sorting and Rowspanning not working in OBIEE 11g (worked in OBI 10)
Hi all,
i have a report with columns like this:
Customer Nbr. | Customer Name | Salesorder | EBIT | EBIT (Total p. Customer)
In the table view i have a total sum line at customer level.
The column "EBIT (Total p. Customer)" is an Aggregate with Formula (SUM(Invoices.Ebit) BY Customer."Customer Nbr.") which is exactly the same value as in the report sum line (column EBIT).
This Aggregate colum is only for sorting purposes and is hidden in the view.
The business case is:
"We want to see the EBIT per Salesorder for each customer, sorted from worst to best customer.
So i sorted by "EBIT (Total p. Customer)" ascending in criteria tab and adviced answers to show the sum for each customer (column customer nbr.) in the table definition view.
OBIEE 10 behaviour: Answers shows all customers sorted by EBIT (Total p. Customer), i see one line for each salesorder, the customer columns are rowspanned over all salesorder lines and there is exactly on sum line after each customer.
OBIEE 11 behaviour: Answers shows all customers sorted by EBIT (Total p. Customer), i see one line for each salesorder BUT there is one sum line after each salesorder too. So there is no sum at customer level but on salesorder level
Any idea how to solve this?
BTW:
1.) I still tried to place this column as the first (left) column in the report to get the right sorting ... with no success.
2.) Sorting data at BI Server level is NO option since there are some other reports with different sorting requirements
While searching in "Oracle Support" i found document ID: 1371247.1 "OBIEE 11g: How To Apply a Custom Sort in Answers" which says "... The functionality to custom sort in Answers does not currently exist There is an enhancement request for this functionality. For more information, see Bug 13261597 - be able to apply a custom sort in answers ..."Did you ever get an answer to your question? We are seeing the same issue.

Hope it is clear...

Sort on the Measure in Pivot table in OBIEE 11g
The pivot table ignores the sort on the measrure in the criteria section, so how can we enable sort on the measure columns in pivot in OBIEE 11g ?

1) Make a duplicate layer of the measure column.
