Power View filters, able to save individual preferences?

Hi,
We currently have a PowerView report which uses the SSAS tabular datamodel as the datasource. This report contains metrics across many teams, and by default, shows the summary metrics across all teams. I've setup filters in the PowerView so managers
can go in and filter for their specific team. Now my question is, can managers save their individual prefences while not affecting the report for others? So for example, Melinda wants to see the metrics for team A so she filters for team A and saves the file.
The next time Melinda opens the report, it shows the metrics for team A. But Bill comes along later and opens the same report and sees the default metrics (ie. non-team A specific).
Is this possible without saving multiple copies of the same report?
Thanks,
Carter

Great suggestion! This feature is not yet available in Power View at this time. One way to mostly achieve the behavior you are looking for is to implement row level security on the model. With row level security, you can filter the data to the individual
users before it gets to Power View.

How can I save the preferences in Adobe Acrobat Standard XI?

Hello,
I'm not able to save any preferences in Acrobat. (like Units, display preferences, the locations of the tools...)
Each time I exit and open again Acrobat, the preferences are not saved, which is very annoying
Kind regards,

Users cannot save a Power View report to thier One Drive Site

I have users that have only access to a sub site where public BI reports are kept.   They want to open a public report, modify it and then save it on their personal sharepoint site.   The problem is when I open a power view report then
edit it then do a save as it does not have the "Sites" option in the list to click on so they can then click on the Social site and save it to their site. Instead it only has the Subsite. Example power users can see this
Sites
   http://companyportal
    BusinessIntelligenceCenter (site)
       SalesBI (site)
          Reports (folder)
             Public folder (folder)
The users in question only see Sales BI and down. With power users we save reports to our personal sharepoint by clicking on sites and then selecting as example
http://companysocial/personal/ken_craig site. then drilling down to where to save it. I the save as dialog box it does not allow typing in it and does not allow you to select sites.
How to get Sites in the list so they can save reports and other docs to their personal sharepoint site.
Ken Craig

Wendy,
I am sure it is permissions but that is my questions how do I give the correct permissions so they can do this. Again I do not want these users to be able to save anything on the subsite. I want them to be able to save things on their own personal
site (onedrive).
I have added a screen shot 1 of the Save AS window I receive and others who are power users. The "Sites" is the top menu item I have in this window. When I click on sites (power users) I can see things like
http://eagleviewsocial which is how I would get to my personal site (one drive). Screen shot 2.
The power users have "Visitors" permissions on the Business INtelligence Center site. They then have Members permissions on the subsite like Client Relations BI or Sales BI depending on the group they are in.
My goal is to give power user the ability to make reports on their BI sub Site (Sales BI as example) and then Read ability on the top level site Business Intelligence Center.   The second group of people and majority will have Visitor or read only
permissions on their group sub site only (Sales BI as example). They will not be able to see the top level site Business INtelligence Center.
IN all cases I want them to be able to save reports (their own customer versions) to their own sites (One drive). This way we do not clutter production sites with individual reports.

Can we have more than 2 "and/or" conditions in filters in advanced mode in power view?

Hi,
I need to check 3 conditions in filter in advanced mode in power view. Is it possible out-of-box. Can we customize the advanced mode filters or do we have some configurable options for same.
Thanks,
Bhawna.

Hi Bhawna,
I'm the Dev Owner for the filtering experience in Power View. Sorry it took so long for me to reply.
In the Power View Advanced Filter cards, you cannot currently add more than two conditions. What Rhys meant about having as many AND filter conditions as you like is that because all of the filter cards are AND-ed together, you can effectively have
more than two filter conditions by adding multiple 'LastModifiedDate' cards.
Unfortunately this won't help you if you're looking to OR more than two conditions.
Adding the ability to have more than two conditions in a single Advanced Filter card is something that is near and dear to my heart, but it does open questions of nesting and grouping which would need to be addressed first in order to be able to offer a
complete solution.
Hope this helps,
Jeremy

Power view in SharePoint - Changing the default save location?

Is it possible to change the default location when saving Power view back into SharePoint?
Our users are creating their own power view reports by clicking a power view shared data source in SharePoint document library.
When saving their reports, the default location is always the same location where the data source is. This is described here also:
https://support.office.microsoft.com/en-us/article/Power-View-in-SharePoint-Server-Create-save-and-print-reports-f616575e-02bf-46cd-b94a-b744245ef9d1?CorrelationId=a852221e-b063-4020-a20a-53d8e8fb8b8b&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Quote from the link: "The first time you save the
report, the default location will be the folder where the model is located."
Ok, understood. But is it possible to change this???

Hi again
Ouch! Not the network!
One of the hard learned issues that folks are unaware of until they encounter problems is that Captivate does not do well when a project is stored on a network. It's fine to keep projects there in order to back them up or as a transfer pivot location to allow others to edit, but you never want to open Captivate, click File > Open and browse to a network location to open a project for editing.
Best practice at this point is to keep projects on your local C drive when you make edits.
Cheers... Rick

Power View Cross-Filtering

In Power View, if you have a bar/column/map visualization with a hierarchy (such as category, sub-category) along with other charts of any kind.
If you double click on a column to drill from category to sub-category, no cross-filtering happens. This is confusing because the column chart is drilled into the "bikes" category for example, but all the other charts/tables are not filtered by the
same category.
This bug is present in "Microsoft Connect"
with this title : Power View Cross-Filtering
I added there also my own comment: In my opinion people "always" expect drilling down also cross-filter other visualizations.
Anyway it will be a good solution to have a "button" to activate or deactivate the cross-filter drill down on the canvas.
It will be solved or not?

CS5 not able to save workspaces or edit preferences

Hey guys,
After installing CS5 yesterday I quickly found out that in all of the programs I am not able to save my work space or edit preferences. Basically what happens is I will say "save workspace" and a blank box pops up which says save workspace, but then that is it... its basically frozen because I can not get past this prompt.
Now when I try to change my preferences on the clipboard to take off PDF preferences, I see a square that minimizes quickly to the bottom right of the program and then the program is left frozen, (nothing can be clicked on) and the only way to exit is to end the process.
According to some other people this may be caused due to a flaw in the installer which makes it so I do not have access to read // write preferences. There seemed to be a solution for some mac users by changing system files so that anyone can update them. But I can not seem to find the same files they are editing on my windows 7.
Can some one please try to help me out.
Thank you so much
M

Do you have any custom display setting such as large fonts or resolution? If so, set them back to Windows defaults.

MDX not working in Power View on sharepoint 2013

I have this MDX statement below that should be able to dynamically give me a % of total for any dimension. IN power View (sharepoint 2013)
I am getting an error. It works in Excel and works in the AS browser but will not seem to work in power view. Any ideas on how to rewrite it so that it may work. I am surprised I cannot find anything on this online about this issue.
When you highlight the "#ERROR!" in Power view it gives a long description of
"The Axis Function was indirectly referenced from the context of a statement other than SELECT. Evaluations of Expressions involving this function succeed only
when indirectly triggered by a SELECT statement".
CREATEMEMBERCURRENTCUBE.MEASURES.[Percent
of Total] AS
//Used to get % from total
IIF([Measures].[Total Count] = 0,
NULL,
IIF(isempty( ([Measures].[Total Count],
Axis(1)(0)(Axis(1)(0).Count-
1).Dimension.CurrentMember.Parent
)), 1,
[Measures].[Total Count] / ([Measures].[Total Count],
Axis(1)(0)(
Axis(1)(0).Count-
1 ).Dimension.CurrentMember.Parent))),
FORMAT_STRING="#,##0.00
%;-#,##0.00 %";

Hey Mike, Thank you very much for the answer. Just need a little more help please???
I have added two separate MDX statements that should get the individual % for these two separate dimensions.
1. First does it look correct from what your saying individually. Would you write it different?
2. Next can you show me the MDX that would combine them into 1 measure. Once I can see how these two get combined into 1 measure I should be able to do this for the rest of the dimensions.
3. Will Power View ever allow Axis function? Just seems strange that it works in Excel Pivot but not in Power View.

Case
// Test to avoid division by zero.
When IsEmpty ([Measures].[Total Count]) Then Null
// Test for current coordinate being on the (All) member.

Power View Reports Dynamic filter

Greetings Everyone !
I have a requirement to create a trend chart to show trend for last six months. So on trend chart, it should reflect previous 6 months (i.e. Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec) and value against each month.

Please help if you have any solution for this.

Total Messages vs. Day & Hour in Power view chart

Now let's say the current system time is 14:05:00 on 07-01-2015
when I select Hour filter, the PowerView chart should display 'Number of Msgs' vs X-Axis (last one hour with 15 minutes interval).
when I select Day filter, the PowerView chart should display 'Number of Msgs' vs X-Axis (last 24 hours with 1 hour interval).
I am able to achieve Week filter, Month filter, Year filter. Struggling to get Day and Hour filters in place as it involves time section of a DateTime column.

Is there any plan to make Power View (charts and report) more customizable?

Hi,
I just was playing with Power tool chain in Excel and office 365, this a nice product well down.
I have a question about the whole idea, is there any plan to make charts more customizable for example user will be able to show the current filter value in the chart or view title (is good while drill downing) or some simple stuff like showing the
pie value not in tool bar but indicators in the chart itself or changing the type of chart while drilling down (start with a column chart then drill to a pie chart) or...
Or more generally some programming framework to customize Power View , for example some programming framework (writing add-in for an add-in :-))?!!
thx

Hi,
-Yes simply the option to add the drill filters' value on the chart title (not just in the filter panel).
- Yes, exactly. Showing labels On Pie Charts,
Also about changing chart's type, I meant somehow be able to change the chart while drill downing (when you go down you can preset chart type for next level)
- The ability of connecting views to each-other (something like linking views and sending filters or other expressions/parameters from one view to the second view
based on users actions like drill downing)
- Also more generally about API/framework (and quite hard to achieve maybe), the possibility to add some dynamic functionality like changing the color, show some dialog/ change the view navigation based
on the user interactions or add custom themes (maybe CSS) (UI
customization ) , the ability to call other data sources and change the report dynamically
Generally be able to add custom codes in the javascript/Html5 result report ( some )
Also ability to add custom controls
in designer part (and adding its client side behavior too ) something like Custom Report Item (CRI) in Reporting Service.

Not able to save bindings when calling bindings.getOperationBinding("update") in customized method.

Hi All,
I'm new to ADF and trying to learn it.
I'm using JDev version 11.1.1.6.0.
My use case is mention below :
1. I've created 2 Bounded task flows and calling one task flow from another task flow using task flow call activity.
2. In child task flow, i've created view activities with Train component. View activities have text fields, radios buttons, tables etc which can be filled by user.
3. I want to save the page data to payload if I move to next view activity using Next button or by train bar.
To accomplish this scenario, I'm calling a customized actionListener on click of Next button/Train Stop Bar in which I'm using below mention code :
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();
BindingContainer bindings = bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
OperationBinding obj = bindings.getOperationBinding("update");
if(obj != null){
     obj.execute();
     if(!obj.getErrors().isEmpty()){
          System.out.println("Not able to save data......");
     else{
          System.out.println("able to save data......");
But I'm not able to save page data to payload/bindings. If i close the window using browser close button and move back to previous train stop in which i've filled the data, the data get lost and all the text fields/Radio button become empty.
If I use Save button provided by Oracle BPM, then I'm able to save it. and data reflected even after if i close the window using browser close button.
So I also try to use the below acode but did not get any success :
FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Application app = fctx.getApplication();
ELContext elContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext();
InvokeActionBean invokeActionBean = (InvokeActionBean)app.getELResolver().getValue(elContext, null, "invokeActionBean");
invokeActionBean.setAction(actionEvent);
invokeActionBean.action();
Can somebody please let me know, what am I doing wrong here or if I'm missing anything.
Any pointers/suggestions for its resolution are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Timo,
Yes, it is the same binding which is called from BPM Save button.
I did not use the debugger but i tried to print the OperationBinding object which was showing me proper binding for update.
Even when i tried to print the return value of invokeActionBean.action(); method, it print the proper string "closeTaskFlow".
So if I see it logically, then I'm just trying to call the methods of InvokeActionBean from my customized method.
If methods of InvokeActionBean not being accessed, or if it was not getting called, then it should not print the "closeTaskFlow" as return value.
I only want to save page data into bindings once I'll move away from page precisely on moving next.
If there is any other work around for this issue, please let me know.
I've also tried to use Explicit/Implicit save points provided by ADF but that did not work too.

Cannot connect to specific Cube through BI Semantic Model for Power View in SharePoint 2013

I'm trying to create a connection to an Analysis Services Cube through a BI Semantic Model connection in SharePoint 2013 to create a Power View report. I'm able to connect to other cubes on the same server, and I have SQL Server 2012 SP1 Update 9 installed
so it's not a versioning issue.
I've captured a log of two different connection attempts to show this in action. I can't post links, but just send me a message if you need it, just in case there's any interest in it. The first is a successful connection to an alternate cube
on the same server, and the second is an unsuccessful attempt that produces and error with "Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred.".
On the SharePoint side, the error is reported as:
Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions.AdomdTestConnectionException: Internal error: An unexpected exception
occurred.
This cube was working the previous day, but it has since been edited and it no longer works now but there's no clear reason why. It can still be queried directly through SSMS with MDX queries, and produces no errors.
Any help is much appreciated,
Ryan

Hi Ryan Myers,
According to your description, when you tried to connect to an Analysis Services Cube in SharePoint 2013 through BI Semantic Model, you get the error message: Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. But the MDX queries works fine in SSMS.
It's hard to give you the exact reason that cause this issue based on the limited information, please validate if the connection string is correct. Besides, we can troubleshoot this issue by using the Windows Event logs and msmdsrv.log.
We can access Windows Event logs via "Administrative Tools" --> "Event Viewer". SSAS error messages will appear in the application log.
The msmdsrv.log file for the SSAS instance that can be found in \log folder of the instance. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSAS11.MSSQLSERVER\OLAP\Log)
