Oracle Discoverer LOV issue

Hi,
I am new to discoverer scenario. I need to implement a conditional selection in the LOV.
Scenario:
Project_Status_LOV with values :- Active, Closed, Transferred etc..
User should select 'Active' as one option, other statuses clubbed together as other option.
I selected the checkbox('Let User Enter Multiple Values).
Now user is able to select all the options together, which i want to avoid. How can i do that?

Hi,
You cannot do what you are asking. The user can either select one value from an LOV or if the checkbox is ticked multiple values. You cannot group values together in a LOV.
So you could use 2 LOVs and use the cascading LOVs feature. So the first LOV has 2 values, Active and Non-Active, and the second LOV has 5 values. The second LOV would be linked to the first LOV so that only the Active value would be shown if Active had been selected in the first LOV. To do this you would set up a calculated item in the folder which returned either Active or Non-Active and build attach your first LOV to this item.

Oracle Discoverer 4i (portal db - oracle 8i) connectivity issue with 11g database

Hi All
We have oracle discoverer 4i with portal db (oracle 8i).
We connect to the external databases using db links in the portal db and the reports will use the db link to retrieve the data from views in the external databases.
External databases we were connecting is oracle 10g version and now we have upgraded these databases to 11g version.
Now i have a created a new db link to this 11g database and i have created a new EUL in portal to connect to this 11g database.
But when i try to create a report using the discoverer from this new EUL after login to the discoverer we get a "cannot connect to database" error.
We have all the necesscary privilege to the user and the new database link works perfectly fine. (when we try to query directly using SQL plus from portal database using this db link the query works perfectly fine).
Im not sure if this is a compatibility issue in connecting from oracle disc 4i to a 11g database.
Can any one advise if this is the case and if there is any workaround for this?
Regards,
Raj

Are you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?
See MOS Doc 207303.1

Discoverer Desktop Issues 10.1.2

Hi,
I am using Discoverer Admin and Desktop both of Verions 10.1.2
I have no issue with Admin; I could do successfully all the work here.
In Desktop i have login successfully as Application user; and created simple Order Report workbook (Order_Report.DIS) and saved it.
Again when i login as application user in desktop; When i try to open my existing workbook (Order_Report.DIS); It will prompt me
Do you want to run the query for the sheet Ord_report; Yes/No; If i select option as Yes i am getting error mesg as Failed to connect to database; If i choose No I will get empty sheet; In either case I will see empty sheet appears; From the Tool Bar if i select Sheet --> Refersh Sheet; I am able to see records in my sheet.
When i continue working on this sheet; All of sudden i get error screen as Oracle Discoverer Desktop has encountered a problem and needs to close
Basically i have two problems in desktop
1. When I open workbook i get error as Failed to connect to database
2. All of sudden i get vague error as Oracle Discoverer Desktop has encountered a problem and needs to close
I would appreicate if some one can help on this.
Thanks!!
Uday

Hi,
I have the same issue with Discoverer Plus 10g Rel 1 (10.2.0.2 )
Desktop and Administrator are working good. So, I cannot resolve it by re-installation.
Also, this is not reproducible. Sometimes it works very smoothly, but sometimes it gives error for the same report.
Any idea ?
Thanks!

Oracle Discoverer Administrator 'OUT OF MEMORY'

Hi ,
I'm trying to include a case statement in the custom folder based on a query.when I include the case statement in the SQL query and click Validate SQL button i get error 'out of memory'.
can anyone plz help me with this.
thanks

Hi
The Out of Memory is not 100% related to the amount of memory you have on your machine. There is an internal cache that it is working with and this is controlled from within your system registry. These settings can be found in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER]\Software\Oracle\Discoverer 10\Application and they are called MaxVirtualDiskMem and MaxVirtualHeapMem and these are typically set to the amount of memory on your PC or even higher where 512000000 equates to 500 MB. I have rarely seen making a change to these have any impact but you can always try.
As a test, try using the Admin command line interface to do what you want. I have seen exports, as mentioned by Russ, fail using the application but work just fine when called from the command line.
You seem to be saying when you run the query yet in your question you say running in Discoverer Administrator. You cannot run a query in Administrator so are you saying that you get this issue when running the query in Desktop or in Plus? For Desktop you can try altering the MaxVirtualDiskMem and MaxVirtualHeapMem, whereas for Plus these will have to be changed in the pref.txt for the application server.

Showing Data in Oracle Discoverer Desktop

Dear ALL,
I am facing an issue in development of Relational reports in Oracle Discoverer Desktop.
Following are the details of my warehouse (Data Mart) database:
There are 2 Dimensions and 1 cube in the Data Mart. All the 2 dimensions and Cube are based on tables Currency, Accounts and Fact_Data respectively in our Data Mart.
Fact table contains 2 facts (CLOSING_BALANCE,MAX_BALANCE) and and the values are stored in USD currency.
The fact table contains 100,000 rows with all values/facts in USD currency.
Details of EUL(End User Layer):
I have derived all 2 dimensions and cube from OWB, which generates all the "Business Definitions" and "Business Areas".
Issue:
I need to show the end user a report (from discoverer) which shows all the values/facts in PKR currency.
What is the best way to get this report?
I have tried many methods, including "Creating a Materialized View (MV) on fact table which contains converted values in PKR and then making a view (Union of fact table and MV) which gives me 200,000 rows." But this solution has an issue that i can not join the View with other dimensions in Discoverer because View contains dimension keys (same as fact table) and dimension tables contain Surrogate Ids.
Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.
Best Regards

Hi,
You cannot schedule and email using Discoverer scheduling. You have to use a third party scheduler and Discoverer Desktop. This article (http://ascbi.com/downloads/Third%20Party%20Documents/Scheduling%20through%20Concurrent%20Manager.pdf) may give you some ideas on how you can use third party scheduling with apps. A bit of extra development will also give you emailing of the scheduled output.

What is the future of Oracle Discoverer?

I posted some of my thoughts on this one http://www.appsbi.com/2007/03/19/what-is-the-future-of-oracle-discoverer-freeware/
and thought who could be better to answer other than Discoverer users themselves. Do you think it makes sense to release Discoverer as a freeware tool or best as an Open source tool?

Hi Bob
You mustn't believe everything you hear from an Oracle sales person. The sales reps have a vested interest in making you believe that OBI SE, which includes Discoverer, will not be here because they earn a lot more commission if they can get you to use EE.
They are right though in that Oracle is developing a tool that will migrate the Discoverer metadata into the Siebel metadata but this is only aimed at making you upgrade to Siebel - which is about 4 to 5 times the cost of Discoverer by the way. Siebel won't be replacing Discoverer, it will be an alternative. A nice, sexy looking, powerful alternative, yet an alternative nevertheless.
Discoverer will still be here and you will then have a choice as to whether you stay with standard edition or migrate to enterprise edition. Now of course if you have plenty of money there is nothing stopping you from upgrading, but for most people that option is out of the question right now. Oracle would need to reduce the price for EE if it is to tempt most of the Discoverer organizations into EE. Heck, there are hundred of companies still using 3.1 never mind 10g Release 2. And how many folks who have 10.1.2 have upgraded to 10.1.2.2, even though its been out a few months now and fixes all those GUI issues that they have?
From what I know, Oracle never makes claims for a product more than 2 releases out and Discoverer certainly has 2 releases in the pipework. There's a release 10.1.2.3 due out in a couple of months and a major 11g release next year. After that it would have a support life of a minimum of 5 years, even if they stopped it after 11g, during which time anything can happen. As you know, 5 years in IT is an absolute age.
Your posting certainly makes for interesting reading though and I'm sure there will be plenty of commets. If you hear any other interesting snippets I'd love to hear.

Installing Oracle Discoverer Reports 4.1 in Windows Vista

Hi Guys............Greetings...
Can we install Oracle Discoverer Reports 4.1 in Windows Vista?
If not any patch available to install the same in WInsows VISTA?
Thanks in advance.
Dave Suresh

Go to metalink
Click on the Certify tab
Click on the second link "View certification by Platform"
If it isn't there then it is not certified.
That is the answer to the question you asked.
My advice is still that you get a decent operating system: Certified or not.

Oracle discoverer with oracle AS

Is it oracle discoverer for web version must be install with oracle AS?

Hard to answer a question like this without a lot of details like your version etc. In later versions of Discoverer there is a checkdiscoverer utility that helps resolve these types of issues. There are also version specific trouble shooting guides available thru Top Tech Docs / Knowledge Browser on Metalink.
If you can't resolve using the diagnostic doc, please log an SR / TAR with Support.

Oracle Discoverer Plus software

Hi,
I am a new user of Oracle BI.while going through the tutorial for Oracle Warehouse Builder i found that Oracle DIscoverer Administrator and Oracle Discoverer Plus are required for reporting.I searched for both on Oracle Site but found only Discoverer Administrator.Can anybody tell me the link from which i can get Discoverer Plus or if it is a part of some other software than please tell me.
Thanks in advance

Hi Tamir,
Many thanks for the guidance. They have hundreds of reports so I have asked them to send me a few however, it feel awkward to ask for all. I have Discoverer9i and they are on Discoverer10g. Do you think this may be an issue ?

Regarding oracle solaris certification

send me detail information regarding oracle solaris certification.Whenever i am trying to look about this it is giving error like this country is not in list for solaris certification

There are several Oracle Solaris certifications, so it is difficult to know which certification you wish to pursue. The certification pages should be available in all countries (tho bigdellboy is correct, the certification may not actually be available in all countries due to US trade embargoes). If the pages are not displaying in your country, this is an issue with the website. Please provide the country from which you are trying to access the pages. If you are uncomfortable posting that information on this forum, please send an email to [email protected] and we will take a look at the web pages in that country to ensure that the settings are correct.
We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for bringing this to our attention.
