Parent Child Hiearchy - Expand/Collapse problems

Hello,
We are on 11.1.1.6 and have built a parent child hierarchy on one of our dimensions. Navigation of the hierarchy works just fine if no measures are included. When a measure is added, the hierarchy becomes nearly unnavigable. That is to say clicking on the plus/minus signs doesn't work. Clicking in various locations of the screen can sometimes get it to work but it is ridiculously hard to get anywhere. The fact table from which the measure is pulled is very small, approx. 100,000 rows so we don't see that as the problem.
Has anybody else seen such a problem?
Thanks.

Can you provide more info on this, how have you modeled the hierarchy with the fact table, are you rolling up the measures for the child to the parent level (modeling as measures) or each employee is showing its own revenue only (modeled as attribute)? If it is modeled as measures where you join the employee table to the closure table and then that to fact table then are you applying any filters in your report ? If you are applying filters in your report and somehow only parent is filtered (and not its children) then you won't be able to drill down, though you will see the + sign against it.

JTree with XML content expand/collapse problem

Hello all,
I'm having this very weird problem with a JTree I use to display the contents of an XML file. I use the DOM parser (and not JDOM since I want the application to run as an applet as well, and don't want to have any external libraries for the user to download) and have a custom TreeModel and TreeNode implementations to wrap the DOM nodes so that they are displayed by the JTree.
I have also added a popup menu in the tree, for the user to be able to expand/collapse all nodes under the selected one (i.e. a recursive method).
When expandAll is run, everything works fine and the children of the selected node are expanded (and their children and so on).
However, after the expansion when I run the collapseAll function, even though the selected node collapses, when I re-expand it (manually not by expandAll) all of it's children are still fully open! Even if I collapse sub-elements of the node manually and then collapse this node and re-expand it, it "forgets" the state of it's children and shows them fully expanded.
In other words once I use expandAll no matter what I do, the children of this node will be expanded (once I close it and re-open it).
Also after running expandAll the behaviour(!) of the expanded nodes change: i have tree.setToggleClickCount(1); but on the expanded nodes I need to double-click to collapse them.
I believe the problem is related to my implementations of TreeModel and TreeNode but after many-many hours of trying to figure out what's happening I'm desperate... Please help!
Here's my code:

The collapseAll, expandAll code (even though I m pretty sure that's not the problem since they work fine on a normal JTree):
    private void collapseAll(TreePath tp){
         if (tp==null) return;
         Object node=tp.getLastPathComponent();
         TreeModel model=tree.getModel();
         if (!model.isLeaf(node)){
              tree.collapsePath(tp);
              for (int i=0;i<model.getChildCount(node);i++){
              //for (int i = node.childCount()-4;i>=0;i--){
                   collapseAll(tp.pathByAddingChild(model.getChild(node,i)));
              tree.collapsePath(tp);
    private void expandAll(TreePath tp){
         if (tp==null) return;
         Object node=tp.getLastPathComponent();
         TreeModel model=tree.getModel();
         if (!model.isLeaf(node)){
              tree.expandPath(tp);
              for (int i=0;i<model.getChildCount(node);i++){
              //for (int i = node.childCount()-4;i>=0;i--){
                   expandAll(tp.pathByAddingChild(model.getChild(node,i)));

Hi,
Iam not facing this problem. To CollapseAll, I do a tree.getModel().reload() which causes all nodes to get collapsed and remain so even if I reopen them manually.
Hope this helps.
cheers,

OBIEE 11g - Navigation in Parent Child Hiearchy not working

Hi All,
I have a employee parent child hierarchy and I want to show revenue for each employee in the report. I have modeled my revenue as a measure like case 4 shown in the following link
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/11/oracle-bi-ee-11g-parent-child-hierarchies-multiple-modeling-methods/
So for example this is my report ,
--David (30)
---Sandra (15)
-----Joe (10)
Joe'e revenue is 10, Sandra's is 5 (showing her 5 Joe's revenue) and David's is 5 (showing his 5 Sandra's revenue)
Issue :
Now what I want is to provide action link on the revenue column so that when user would click on revenue for any employee it would direct them to a detail report showing the bifurcation.
For ex, I want that when user click on 15 which is Sandra's revenue, he would be redirected to a detailed report for Sandra and similary for Joe and David
MY ISSUE IS that the navigation is NOT working for sandra and Joe. It is only working for David (who is the ancestor of sandra and Joe). When I click on 15 to see sandra's detail report, it doesn't do anything and in the bottom left corner of the browser status bar below I see an ERROR saying
(same for Joe but David work's fine)
Message: 'getLevelInfo(...)' is null or not an object
Line: 1
Char: 11142
Code: 0
URI: http://localhost:7001/analytics/res/b_mozilla/answers/selectionsmodel.js
Why is that happening? Is that because I have modeled the revenue as an measure and not attribute. Is navigation not possible in this case?
Anybody has any solution or workaround for this, it will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ronny

Ok, so let me explain this in detail and give the structure of my tables and the data,
There are three tables.
1.Parent Child relationship table - pctable
2.Closure table which OBIEE creates through a script - reltable
3.Fact table which contains the revenue - facttable
This is the data
pctable
personid | managerid
David | NULL
Sandra| David
Joe|Sandra
reltable
memberkey | ancestorkey |distance |is_leaf
David|NULL|NULL|0
David|David|0|0
Sandra|Sandra|0|0
Joe|Joe|0|0
Sandra|David|1|0
Joe|Sandra|1|1
Joe|David|2|1
facttable
personid|revenue
David|5
Sandra|5
Joe|10
and my joins conditions are, I join pctable to reltable and then reltable is joined to facttable like this.
pctable.personid = reltable.ancestorkey
reltable.memberkey = facttable.personid
and then in the report, when I pull up the pchierarchy build from pctable and revenue , I get as below and like I said, when I click on Sandra to see the revenue she contributes, I am not able to navigate. Can you let me know what modifications needs to be done?
---David(20)
----Sandra(15)
------Joe(10)

Chart on parent child hiearchy

Hi All,
I am trying to create chart above the table . The table has parent child relationship. However, in chart I want to display only the child values and on table I want to show parent child relationship.
Is there a way to create filter for chart only in obiee report not on table?
Thanks,
Virat

The relation column sits in chart prompts and rest columns you can put in chart.

Navigation in Parent Child Hiearachy is a bug in OBIEE 11.1.1.6 ?

Hi All,
Please look into one of my earlier posts
OBIEE 11g - Navigation in Parent Child Hiearchy not working
One of my friends Ram told me that this is an Oracle Bug in 11.1.1.6. It's I just wanted to know if anybody has faced the same issue and reported this as a bug in Oracle. Unfortunately, i don't have the privileges to log a bug or see the bug information, can anybody please provide any information on this ?
Thanks,
Ronny

Hi,
Bug 14406555 : 11.1.1.6.2BP1 UPGRADE : ACTION LINK INTERACTION FAILS WITH GETLEVELINFO ERROR
FYI: MOS
What actually did happen?
After the upgrade, when they expand the parent-child hierarchy and click on the measure column to navigate through the Action Link, nothing happens and they see error in the IE browser at the bottom - Message: 'getLevelInfo(...)' is null or not an objectLine: 1Char: 11175Code: 0URI: http://nyfsqla105.ny.fw.gs.com:9704/analytics/res/b_mozilla/answers/selectionsmodel.js It does not show any error in FF but it does not do anything. Inspite of checking "Do not display in a popup if only one action link is available at runtime" for Action links, it does show pop up after the upgrade.
Thanks

Parent Child Hierarchy - Display other dimension fields against parent

Hi,
I have a Dimension for Customer with a parent child hierarchy. The problem I have is with additional fields within the dimension. See data below:
Row Labels
Customer Group Description
Value
500116 - OOO "Starline"
30
   500116 - OOO "Starline"
A - Dealer
5
   818781 - OKNO
Direct / End User
10
   400464 - OKNO TV
Other
15
500123 - VIDAU SYSTEMS
300
500123 - VIDAU SYSTEMS
A - Dealer
100
400396 - VIDAU SYSTEMS
Other
200
Grand Total
330
I want the Customer Group to show "A - Dealer" for the parent of the first row (against "500116 - OOO "Starline"), but its shown blank. Also, I would like other fields to do the same. As the parent relates to a row in
my dimension table, this should be possible?
Thanks in advance,
Dominic

Hi,
Sorry it took me a while to come back to this.
My dimension has the following columns:
ID
Customer
Customer Group
Parent
1
500116
A - Dealer
NULL
2
818781
Direct / End User
1
2
400464
Other
1
My measure has 3 rows:
customerKey
value
1
5
2
10
3
15
So when this is presented in the cube, the 3 items with values are correctly presented but my problem is that the "Customer Group" doesnt show against record 1 (the parent). In usual circumstances my users will not expand the hierarchy, i
just want the associated row value shown.
Does this make more sense? I hope so, and i hope somebody can help me resolve it.
Thanks,
Dom

Parent/Child Master Data Type

I recently created a new master data type in my model, which included one attribute with the 'parent' check box checked - to signify that it was to be used as the parent.
Upon activating the master data type - the system auto generated several other attributes within the master data type. My question is, what is the purpose of these additional attributes and how are they to be used?
Before Activation:
Attribute
Description
Notes
ID
ID
<< marked as key and as required
DESCR

<< no special check boxes checked
PID
Parent ID
<< marked with parent check box
After activation:

Hey JJ,
The purpose of these attributes is for parent-child hierachy relationship.
In addition to above mentioned attributes, you should also notice (via HANA studio), that another Planning object gets generated automatically. The new planning object should be the name of your parent-child object plus "_ANC" prefix at the end.
If you take a look at this planning object, you will notice that the object contains all the generated attributes (your attriubute plus "A" prefix at the end) in the definition.
Once you load data into your parent-child hiearchy object the "_ANC" object will automatically get populated with parent-child node relationship.
"A-prefix" attriubutes essentially represents the attributes of ancestor in this case.
In addition, in order to do Ancestor rolllup in your calculation you will also need to create an ancestor planning level which contains all the attriubutes of your base planning level as well as these "A-Prefix" attributes.
Please take a look at the document we created for "How to configure Parent-Child Hiearchy" from the share link
It has more detailed information.
Thanks.
Daniel.

Parent Child Hierachy Revenue Rollup Issue

Hi All,
I have modeled my parent child hiearchy in such a way that revenue for each parent is equal to sum of his revenue and all his descendents. So If this my table
Empname|Revenue
David|100
James|25
Terry|30
this is what my hierachy shows
--David(155)
---James(25)
---Terry(30)
Now this is working perfectly fine and this is how users want it to be. To roll up the revenue for all the descendents uptil the top level.
The issue is, users also want to see what revenue David contributed. Because, as per the above example, when they try to add 25(James) + 30(Terry), it comes to 55 and the revenue contributed by David (100) becomes implicit and David straightaway shows 155. So they want to have a small pop up or any other column in the report which bifurcates David's revenue with others just to add more sense to David's revenue of 155.
Is there any workaround which could be done in the same report or do I have to create a separate detail report ?
Thanks,
Ronny

Thanks Dpka, I did exactly that, there is a small issue. Let's say my hierarchy is (I have just dded one more level under David). So James and Terry reports to Thomas and Thomans reports to David.
--David(165)
----Thomas(65)
------James(25)
------Terry(30)
David is the top level and Thomans the next level. Now when I click on David, it takes me to the target report and shows me the revenue as expected but when I click on either Thomas, James or Terry, it doesn't take me to the target report. At the bottom left it shows me an error. This is what the error is
Message: 'getLevelInfo(...)' is null or not an object
Line: 1
Char: 11142
Code: 0
URI: http://wmdwm100a.midlandls.int:7001/analytics/res/b_mozilla/answers/selectionsmodel.js
So It is working only for the top level managers whose doesn't have any anscestor. Any ideas why is tha so?
Thanks,
Ronny

Problem with JTree while expanding/collapsing a node

Hi,
I'm using a JTree for displaying the file system.
Here, i want that whenever a node get expanded,
it should show the latest files/directories under that node.
Now, what i'm doing is, getting all the files/dir's using files.listFiles(),
under that node and then creating a new node and adding it to parent (all in expand() method).
But, now the problem is, while doing this whenever the parent node get expanded its adding all the latest files/dirs into the previous instance
resulting the same file/dir is displaying twice,thrice.. and so on, as that node is expanded and collapsed.
i tried removeAllChildren() in collapse() method but then that node is notexpanding at all .
Can anybody help me please...
i got stuck b'coz of this only.
Thanks...

Now what i'm doing is every time expand() get called,
i'm comparing all the children of that node in the
current instance with all the children present in the
file system (because there is a possibility that some
file/dir may be added or deleted)
is this the right wy or not?it certainly is not wrong, but as usual, there is more than 1 way to implement this...
b'coz right now i'm getting all the files/dirs that
are newly added but facing some problem if somebody
deletes a file/dir.
i'm still trying to get the solutionthen you should not just compare all the children of the node with the files/dirs but also the other way round. compare the files/dirs with the children to determine if the file/dir still exists and if not remove the node.
or you could check if the file which a node represents exists and if not remove the node.

IE6 child div expands width of parent div

I have a problem that has been vexing me...hopefully someone can answer it.
I want to have a child div expand to overlap the div next to it. It is for a calendar so that all day events that stretch for multiple days can stretch over and cover multiple days.
In IE6, the child div expands the width of the parent div and wrecks my display. The "proper" way that FF, Safari, and IE 7 & 8 do is that the child div will overlay the parent. The parent div's width remains unchanged, no matter what the width of the child is. IE6 incorrectly expands the width of the parent div to match that of the child div.
I've set up a small example so you can see the difference. Check it out in FF and then in IE 6. Notice that in IE6 the "parent" div is too wide. In FF it looks fine.
Any way to get IE6 to behave like FF in this case?
Thanks!

I see now you posted your code. Thanks.
For best cross browser results, the floated container needs to be wide enough to accomodate everything inside it. Some browsers will resize others won't.   For another approach see my code. This uses a disjointed rollover method.

JPA One-To-Many Parent-Child Mapping Problem

I am trying to map an existing legacy Oracle schema that involves a base class table and two subclass tables that are related by a one-to-many relationship which is of a parent-child nature.
The following exception is generated. Can anybody provide a suggestion to fix the problem?
Exception [EclipseLink-45] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.0.0.v20091127-r5931): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DescriptorException
Exception Description: Missing mapping for field [BASE_OBJECT.SAMPLE_ID].

The entities are related as follows:

SAMPLE is one to many SAMPLE_ITEM

Thanks for the thoroughness. There was a mistake in moving the code over for the forum. The field names are correct throughout the original source code.
BASE_OBJECT_ID is used throughout.
I suspect the problem lies in the one-to-many sampleItem(s) relationship that is based upon the subclassed item class. (The relationship is actually "sampleItems" in the real code and somehow got changed in the move over.)
The problem may lie in the mapping of the attribute override in the child class to the referencing of the item class from the parent side of the relationship in the Sample class.
I further suspect this may be specific to Eclipselink based upon other postings I've seen on the web that have similar problems...
Any thoughts?

Problem creating standard ECC Parent-Child Hierarchy in HANA

Hi all -
I've been trying to get a hierarchy to work on the front end of a stand alone HANA system using profit center hierarchy data from SETLEAF / SETNODE tables from ECC. Here is how my test hierarchy looks:
Following another post I found around here, I created an attribute view and filtered SETNAME to 'TST_HANA'.
The resulting data when connected to my attribute view caused an error that there was no root node, so I manually inserted the last row shown here (where PCA_PARENT = SETNAME and PCA_CHILD = SUBSETNAME):
Finally, I created my parent-child hierarchy in the attribute view and connected that view to my data foundation in the analytic view via left-outer join between Profit Center and VALFROM. However, when I go to connect to my view via MDX in excel, I get the following message:
"Hierarchy create error: Multiple parents not allowed for hierarchy node TST_ND1" Clearly from the data, there aren't multiple parents for TST_ND1. It's already a pain that to use a standard hierarchy I have to manually insert a root node, but that doesn't even seem to fix the problem.
Can anyone suggest how to fix this to get a standard profit center hierarchy working?
Thank you!
AZ

Hi,
According to me, Hierarchy level will work fine in ms excel for all analytical, calculation view using MDX Provider..
Do you have any composite primary key or composite foreign key in the tables....
r u getting correct level hierarchy output in Hana studio... plz check with all types of permutation possible.if u r getting correct output in analytical view w.r.t hana but fails to get in Ms excel..
please create Calculation view of that.. & then check the output in ms-excel..
Thanks,

Parent/child fonts problem

Hi all
I'm developing a program which has been writing out servicable PDF files for a few months, with embedded Truetype fonts; the files open without problem and display correctly. However, I am now trying to write out parent/child fonts (to allow character sets other than Latin) and I'm running into problems, even though I think I'm obeying the PDF spec.
Specifically, when I open the PDF, my font is not used. In the Document properties, Fonts tab, only the parent font is displayed, and at the bottom of the dialog, the following appears: "Gathering font information... (0%)".
Presumably, that means there is at least one mistake in my font declarations. The relevant sections from my PDF are as follows; I wonder if anyone can see anything obviously wrong? Note that there are many more figures in object 5's width collection, but I have removed them for the sake of brevity.
4 0 obj
<</Type/Font/Subtype/Type0/BaseFont/d+TraditionalArabicBold,Bold

endobj
Is there anything obviously wrong here?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
Rob

Many thanks, Irosenth. I made the fixes you suggested, but still no luck (I still get 0% loading in the fonts tab). Looking at the preflight report on my new PDF, it lists "missing font" for each font I'm trying to embed (e.g. 'missing font "traditionalarabic"', so there's still something wrong in my PDF output.
Here's a link to the latest version. If you have a chance to look at it, and have any suggestions, that would be great.

Problem with saving Parent - Child View Objects in ADF 11g.

Hi Every one,
I have a requirment, something like I will be displaying some data on my jsff screen based on one Transient View Object. Whenever user clicks on Save button, I have to do following steps in my AMImpl.
-> Preapre dynamically Parent View Object Rows based on some logic
-> Prepare dynamically Child View object Rows and invoke insertRow method on respective child view object.
When I say commit() First Parent ViewObject data need to be saved and then Child View object data has to be saved. I am having Parent - Child Key relation ship btw these two ViewObjects. Some how I am populating the Parent Primary key in the Child View Object. Please suggest me If there is any other alternative to this.
Thanks

I got the solution, Enabling the check box option for Master - Detail Entity association (CompositionAssociation -> Cascade Update Key Attributes) resolved the issue.
Thanks

Parent-Child Socket Problem

I have two processes with a Parent-Child relationship.
The child communicates to the parent over a socket.
If I say "run" from my Eclipse IDE for each separately they work fine and the child can connect to the parent.
However, if I have the parent start the child (Runtime.exec) the child always gets "Connection refused: connect" when it tries to connect to the parent.
The parent is already initialized and has a thread doing an accept on the connection port.
I'm running on Windows XP.
Any idea why I get connection refused only when the parent starts the child?
Thanks,
-- Frank

Thanks for the response.
I took more care to make sure the parent listener thread was started and did a short sleep before starting the children, and now things seem OK.
But interesting that you mentioned stdout/err from the child.
I found that the child processes were all stalling at a certain point.
When I had the parent read stdout, they progressed further.
Apparently they are hanging on trying to write to stdout.
I have them log what they need to and so don't really care about stdout.
I tried adding > nul 2> nul to the end of the Runtime.exec command, but that didn't help.
Any idea how to just discard the stdout/err from the children?You can redirect stderr to stdin if you use ProcessBuilder, you then have to create a thread that reads from stdin and throws the data away. (That's at least how you used to do it. I don't know if there is a better way now)
