Passing drill down filter to a BI Publisher report in 11G

Let's say we have a dashboard with a prompt and a regular Answers report. The user expects the prompt to filter report 1 and then make a selection from the report1 to navigate to report 2 which is now being filtered by both the prompt and the selection from report 1. I looked through the documentation on BI Pub 11G and it looks like if we now navigate from report 2 to a BI Pub report only the dashboard prompt (via presentation variables) will be passed to the BI Pub report. Is there a way to also pass the filters created within report 1 and report 2 to BI Pub?
Thanks.

Hi. That helped. I get the right value now in the dropdownlist. When defining the dashboard prompt I wrote some custom SQL:
SELECT "A11_DIM_PERIOD"."DESCTEXT", "A11_DIM_PERIOD"."KEY" FROM "promptsource" WHERE "A11_DIM_PERIOD"."DESCTEXT" IS NOT NULL ORDER BY "A11_DIM_PERIOD"."KEY". Now the prompt shows the display values but as soon as I select on and hit apply the dropdownlist text changes to the Key values (whicih is fine for my parameters, because they need to be key values rather than text) but this is unfortunate for the front end user, they will wonder "hey, why did the drop down list value I selected just change". Right now, I dont know why. The prompts work fine just odd that their display data changes from rpd logical column description field to sort field.

Answers Caching Drill Down Filter

Hi
Im experiencing an intermittent issue when drilling down from a report and returning to the parent level report, and then selecting a different drill down filter from the header report.
It seems as though the drill down filter in the first attempted drill down is being stored as no results are being returned the second time and when you go to edit the report it shows the initial filter is still selected.
Has anyone else experienced this? and if so please can you advise of a solution/workaround.
Thanks
James

FYI This issue is occurring on 10G OBIEE

Passing drill down value to prompt

Hello ,
I have an requirement like i have 2 reports one is parent report and child report, i need to pass the drill down value from the parent report to the prompt in the child report. i.e let us say i have customer name in parent report and when i drilled from customer name to the child report, in the child report the prompt sholud display the related customer id's based on the customer name on which we drilled from parent report.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Hi Venkatesh,
If I understood correctly this is what you want,
When you click the customer name in report A it will take you to report B with the corresponding customer Id in the prompt value.
You can use GO Url for this,
In the customername column write the Go Url, change the column properties to html.
sample go url,
'<a href=saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/users/administrator/_portal&Page=page2&Action=Navigate&col1=
"Customers"."Customer%20Id"&val1='||"Customers"."Customer Id"||'>'|| "Customers"."Customer Name"||
'</a>'
So when user clicks on the customer name , the corresponding customer Id will passed to the report B and prompt value on report b will change accordingly.
Make sure in Report B customer Id column is prompted.
Thanks,
Vino

Drill down capability in PeopleSoft XML Publisher?

Hi,
I'm interested in implementing the following functionality in PeopleSoft XMLP: I have a table produced in an RTF document that looks like the following:
Term: <TERM>, Subject: <Subject>, Cat No: <CATALOG>, Section: <SECTION>, Course Title: <Course Title>
Question: <QUESTION_ID>
Student Response Detail
50524 5 Always
51042 5 Always
I'd like to give the ability to drill down on the student ID that will bring up a seperate section of the report that has the data grouped by that student ID instead of by question. I'd then like the QUESTION_ID in the 2nd section of the report to link back to the original section where the responses are grouped by STUDENT_ID.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mathieu
You can certainly build dynamic URLs in your templates. Managing to call other reports within the PS environment is another matter.
I have pinged the PS dev team to see if they can fill in the gap.
Might be worth posting a little more information on the reports and what you want to drill to, pass parameters, etc ?

Show drill down with in same page in Oracle BAM 11g

Is it possible to show drill down report with in same report page?say once i open a report A, user can see only report A.Once i drill down to next level the report page will show report A and next drilled reoprt say report B and like this.

You mean to say you have two different reports like a master summary report and second as detailed report or you are just using bam hierarchichal drilling to drill down to the lower level detail?
BAM driving feature works on the two views in the same report like you have a list view at top of report and a pie chart view at the bottom, then you can pass parameters(like cliking on a row of list will pass parameter to the bottom view) from the top view to the bottom view and depending upon the parameter passed, the bottom view will get updated. In this case, you can see both the views simultaneously on the same page.

Drill down value not matching with Displayed Report Painter Issue-GR55

Hi,
Need your help for an issue in drill down value of report painter from actual cost coloumn.
I have created a new report group based on OSS Note-157720 in GR55 Traction. This new report group will provide data of Planed / Actual cost, Planned / Actual Quantity of the project in range of fiscal year/periods. The issue in this report is displayed data of actual cost is not matching with drill down data. The actual cost coloumn is formula coloumn which framed by subtracting All periods cost coloumn, Before Periods Cost Coloumn and After periods cost coloumn.
Could you suggest on this issue.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Rakesh

The report you are running first might have been created with some hidden columns that contain more than one variables relating to period and fiscal year. These may not be matching those that are required to run the drilldown. Look into the definition of the drilldown report. If you would want to match the first report, It may be better to identify which report runs on drilldown and the run that report with the required parameters.

MM Drill down on any line on the report ME2N the line defaults to item 10

We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 EHP5 .
When you drill down in ME2N on any line on the report, it takes you to the tab of line item 10 and not on the line
where drill down was initiated .
Thank you in advance .

was this different in your older release?
If you are sure it was, then you should open a call at SAP directly and ask for a fix.
I am on EHP4 and I get as well to the first item in a PO, whatever item I click in ME2N.
But I cannot remember that this was different in any release in the past.

FMAVCR01 Consumed Amt Drill down detail results show less than report total

Our budget reports as well as FMAVCR01 show a consumed amount total of 18,000 for our 1st fiscal year in SAP. But when drilling down to the document journal only 15,750 total items are displayed. Why is that?
Using FMRP_RFFMTO10X I can tell that the difference is in period 1 in which the Cmmts/act is 5,625 but when drilling down to the document journal only 3,375 is displayed.
Period 1 is July. Note that we went live on SAP as of October... Period 4. Even after reinitializing our avc ledger, the discrepancy still exists. Any ideas why or how to narrow down the problem or get to the source of the extra 2,250 displayed in budget reports?

Hi Will,
Hmmm... That's a tough question without seeing the results of FMAF, at least. Sometimes, something goes wrong with the reassignment (if you did any) or the carry-forward. Sometimes, it's somehow connected to internal process which differs from SAP standard (again, if you have any). Could be really several reasons, but most of them are resulted from enhanced solutions in FM.

Report is not showing a prompt for a Charactorstic Filter Drill Down..!!

Hello Experts,
Recently my project was enhanced with some more new project and mixed it with my project.
Now my issue is before my new project was mixed into this project. We have the option..when a material drill down we come to see the Filter window.
In that my old project, for the users comfortability and for knowing to users that there are more than 200 materials avaialble like that..in that filter they put one prompt message " has more than 200 values ".
But after mixing up the enhanced new project, now..we are unable to see the above prompt message in Filter window..when material drill down.
User requirement is to again users need to see that kinf of prompt in the materils drill down filter window.
Requesting you , please reply me if any body faced this kind of issue in your projects or come to know from ur end.
Thanks,
SN.

Hi,
This Prompt message would have been set in WAD(XHTML Coding section) in your old project. Now , you cross check your Web template for the same. Your issue will be resolved.

How to setup the drill down on union report

Hi,
I'm setting the union report.
I want to set the drill down to another report.
But I can't setup it.
Would you please tell me how to setup.
Thank you.

Hi Hemlatha
In Crystal Reports, to prevent the ability to drill down into a subreport when published on the Web, add a text object that is filled with blank spaces, created by pressing the 'Space Bar' and 'Enter' for line returns, to eclipse the subreport.
This workaround is applicable only to subreports that does not grow in size. For example, subreports that display only a chart or graph.
Steps to Add a Text Object over a Subreport
1. In the Crystal Reports Designer of the main report, insert a text object over the subreport.
2. Resize the text object to be the same size or a little larger than the subreport object on the main report.
3. Fill the text object with blank spaces created by pressing the 'Space Bar' and 'Enter'. This is necessary because resizing a text object without
the blank spaces will not maintain its size when it has been published on the Web.
====================
NOTE:
You can format the text object with a hyperlink to another report, another file or a URL.
====================
Now, when the Crystal report is previewed on the Web, the text object that fully eclipses the subreport will prevent the ability to drill down into it.

Drill down in report

I am looking to add some drill down functionality in one of my reports. Does anyone have an references (books, tutorials, or otherwise) that could provide an example. I'm running Reports 9i. TIA.

Hi,
One example you could look at is "Parameter form JSP".
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/index.html
In the example, you can search for customet name (eg, s%), then from the customer list you select one in order to view all its orders.
If you want to use the paper layout and output to HTML / HTMLCSS, in that case you can use the Hyperlinks property to create drill-down. You can look at "Building Reports" manual section 2.2.6 for information on Hyperlinks. Create a master report with hyperlinks, and in each hyperlink you can pass the full report command for the detail report with the relevant master infromation, eg, the customer_id or the department_id.

Drill Down Report Performance issue?

Hi,
why drill down report is slower performance comparing with Action link/Navigation method? what could be the back end processing?
Thanks
MRD

Need to know/see your config to tell why it is slow, I would suggest to follow best practices for the same.
Drill down back end process something like:
Report fetch next level columns and the all aggregated measures are grouped by next level this may take some time unless you go with aggregate table (is part of best practices)
Appreciate if you mark as correct/helpful
