Problem in navigating from one report to another in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
I am facing an issue with OBIEE 10g while applying navigation on my reports.
Lets suppose I made a report showing list of all items(in broad categories) sold on a particular day, say Dairy, Frozen Foods, Chocolates etc.In this report there is a date prompt showing the date of sale.
Now there are certain items that are distributed within these categories, like dairy includes milk, cheese, butter etc.
Hence, my navigation should be like when I click on a particular item category, the control should move on to the report which has all items under that particular category and the prompt for this report should show the same date as passed in the previous report.
But sometimes what happens is that on clicking the navigation from first report to the second one, the date is not persisting in the prompt. I say sometimes because at times the navigation does work correctly. This is a bug of Obiee or something which is giving unexpected results.
Kindly help with your suggestions.
Thanks
Ankita

Ankita,
This is not a bug in OBIEE...I'm sure something is missing. If this is working for some cases and not working for some other case then you will need to find the root cause. Try in bits and pieces...Step by Step with some dates (unit testing). Ideally this shud work properly.
For an instance try with OBIEE drilldown feature and not with navigation with a single sale date and observe the behavior.
Hope its clear...

  • Problems in navigating from one report to another in Obiee 10g

    Hi,
    I am trying to navigate from One report another report.
    In the first report, the filters are being passed using the presentation variable.
    In the second report, the filter are also based on presentation variable.
    In the first report, filters are being passed but when I navigate to second report I face the problem.
    The presentation variable are not getting passed.
    Kindly help with you suggestions.
    Regards,
    Biswadeep

    Hi Biswadeep,
    in your first report you use the presentation variables to filter data. But in your second report, you must include all fields where you want filter data and in the properties of each field you indicate that these fields are prompted.
    Hope it helps,

  • Problem in Navigation from one tab to another

    Hi All,
    In my forms, I have three tabs. In one tab, i have a set of records displayed(like table) in which all columns are bound to a table. I want to sort the records in the tab based on one column. So i wrote the following code in WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED trigger in form level. It works fine when i click on the particular tab. But when i try to navigate from one tab to another tab which i want to sort, the records in the tab are not sorted. The buton i used to navigate from one tab to another is tab in key board.
    DECLARE
    l_order_by VARCHAR2 (70) := '(select code from emp)';
    BEGIN
    IF (:SYSTEM.tab_new_page) = 'PAGE1' OR :SYSTEM.cursor_block = 'BLOCK1' THEN
    SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY ('BLOCK1', order_by, l_order_by);
    GO_BLOCK ('BLOCK1');
    EXECUTE_QUERY;
    END IF;
    END;
    please help asap.
    Thanks,
    Gopi.

    Gopi,
    Based on your sample code, the only data block that you are modifying the sort on is "BLOCK1". Rather than combine all of your logic into the When-Tab-Page-Changed (WTPC) trigger, I suggest you simply use the WTPC trigger to set the cursor to the block associated with the selected tab page and then set your block properties and query your block in the When-New-Block-Instance (WNBI) trigger for each block. For example:
    /* Sample When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger */
    DECLARE
       tp_nm    VARCHAR2(30);
    BEGIN
       tp_nm := :SYSTEM.TAB_NEW_PAGE;
       IF ( tp_nm = 'PAGE1' ) THEN
          Go_Block('BLOCK1');
       ELSIF ( tp_nm = 'PAGE2' ) THEN
          Go_Block('BLOCK2');
       ELSIF ( tp_nm = 'PAGE3' ) THEN
          Go_Block('BLOCK3');
       END IF;
    END;Bare in mind, that clicking on a Tab Page does not move the navigation cursor the block associated with the tab page displayed. You must manually perform the navigation as demonstrated above. Now, in your WNBI triggers you would write something like the following:
    /* Sample When-New-Block-Instance trigger */
    DECLARE
       l_order_by VARCHAR2 (70) := '(select code from emp)';
    BEGIN
       SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY ('BLOCK1', order_by, l_order_by);
       EXECUTE_QUERY;
    END;You could combine this code into the WTPC trigger if you don't want to seperate the code and orgainze it according to your data blocks. The key, however, is that cursor navigation doesn't occur when you click on a tab, you have to perform the navigation yourself.
    Hope this helps,

  • Blank Screen while navigating from one screen to another in a web applicati

    Blank Screen while navigating from one screen to another in a web application.
    While navigating through the screens of the web-based application, I get blank screen at times. The application menu bar is still visible and the header and footer jsps are also still available. The main processing frame alone goes blank. Once I get the blank screen, I am able to choose from the menu option and contine navigating through the screens.
    The application has been deployed on WebSphere Application Server v6.0 and uses JDK 1.4.2. I have checked the application, server and systemerr logs. And there are no exceptions in any of the log files. There is no difference in the logs for a normal flow and the flow when the blank screen occurs.
    The blank screen does not occur always. It occurs around 3 out of 10 times. If you consider a particular page, mostly it loads normally and very few times, the blank screen occurs.
    Compression filter is being used and it gets invoked for every request. Size before and after compression also gets printed in the logs.
    Could this be causing any issue in terms of memory handled or could any jsp timeout be happening, though there are no exceptions in the logs.

    Well, since no one has any ideas, here is my two cents worth:
    Can you turn off compression and see if the problem goes away? If not, I suggest creating a small separate project with the same functionality as that part of the program that causes problems and see if you can duplicate it. Use System.out.println() in the java code and out.write() in the JSP pages throughout the java and JSP code to write to the log file or console as each section is run to see what section is causing problems. You can also consider commenting out sections of code in your JSP page to see if you can isolate the problem.
    I had a similar problem with the screen being blank and this is what I found:
    My JSP page had an include tag in it that included another JSP page. The outer JSP page was drawn and waited for the included JSP page to be drawn. The logic took several minutes to run and something timed out. The inner JSP page was never drawn. No log entry occurred. It appears that it was not Apache or Tomcat that caused the problem, but some firewall or similiar such device. If you have a firewall or similar device, see if the person who maintains it can temporarily set its timeout to a very long time (15 minutes) to see if the problem goes away. Apache and Tomcat probably also have a timeout feature too. You will have to read up on their configuration settings on how to set them.
    By the way, each of those devices probably has its own log file you can read to see if its reporting an error.

  • Unable to pass the values from one report to another using navigation links

    Hi All,
    I am facing a strange issue where I have to pass a column value from one report to other.
    I have kept navigation link in the 1st report and 'is prompted' option in the 2nd report
    Issue was , I'm not getting the filtered result in the 2nd report (all the records are being displayed)
    Can anyone advice where I was going wrong
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    The column which you have given navigation link and 'is prompted' column should same and exist in both the reports.You have to give the guided navigation in the value interaction of the column in the report1.

  • Problem moving mail from one computer to another...

    Hello.
    I'm trying to move a specific mailbox from one computer to another computer. I'm doing this to 2 pairs of machines and with the first pair I had no issues. But, then second pair I get errors.
    On the first computer I just copied the .mbox folder (which contains the sub "Messages" folder & info.plist file) from the one computer to the other. Then, in mail.app I "import" the messages via the Import option (importing mail from Mac OS X). No problem and all messages are imported.
    On the second pair of computers, I did the same thing, but when I try and Import the messages onto the second machine, it says it can't find any OS X mail messages to import.
    I really need to get these messages from one machine to another. "Forwarding" or "Redirecting" all the messages from one machine to another isn't an option.
    Can anyone suggest what might be wrong, or another way of migrating the single folder of messages (not the entire account) from one machine to another?
    Thanks,
    Kristin.

    Hi Kristin,
    I stay away from mbox files because it has never worked for me, but I may have a solution. This may not be THE award winning answer, but you could consider it when the other options don't work:
    I assume you want to import a mailbox that is NOT part of an IMAP account, because otherwise you would not have this problem (right?) (otherwise just open that IMAP account on the computer you want the messages on).
    But if you have an IMAP account, besides the POP account that contains the mailbox in question, you can use that account to fix your problem:
    Go to the compu that has the desired mailbox, make a new folder in the IMAP account called 'backup' or whatever. Copy all messages from the desired mailbox to that new IMAP folder (depending on size this may take a while, because you are uploading via your internet connection). Now go to the other compu, make a new 'local folder' in mail.app. Open the IMAP account in mail.app and open the 'back up folder'. Now copy all messages to the new, local folder.
    If you don't have an IMAP account, you can always open a free one with gmail.
    I know, it's not very elegant, but this will work guaranteed.
    Good luck,
    Feddeg

  • How to keep the filter when jump from one report to another report?

    Hi experts,
    How to use the "Link" or "Button Group" Web Item in BEx Web Application Designer to jump from one report A to another report B, both the filter of report A and report B could be kept and not missing.
    When I use jump from report A to report B, the filter of Report B disappears.
    But I need the filter of Report B to stay there and could be used.
    Thanks
    Alex

    Hi..
    I tried Your approached but I got an error as the field are connected to Entity Object and they are mandatory.
    I achieved it using another way. Using " setForwardURL " method only.
    As I am calling this method to delegate back to first page. This method takes 8 input parameters.
    The 6 no parameter is about to retain AM or not. It a boolean type. Initially it was TRUE as soon as I changed it to False it worked as I needed. :)

  • Problem transferring website from one PC to another.

    I’m trying to transfer a site from one PC to another, but it won’t open on the second PC. I’ve tried exporting the site definition and also transferring individual files, all to no avail.
    It’s the same copy of Dreamweaver CS4 on both machines (version 10.0, build 4117) but it acts as though Dreamweaver doesn’t exist on the second PC, even when I have it open first.
    Would the fact that the first PC is running Windows 7 while the second PC is running Windows XP have any bearing on it? Or am I doing something else wrong?

    Murray,
    I export to a memory stick and then import it from that. It loads the folder into DW local files on the second PC, but there's nothing inside the folder. It's just empty.
    John,
    I purchased one copy and installed on both machines. They're not networked. I had hoped to keep one PC offline and just transfer files to the other one and use it for connecting to the Internet.

  • Facing Problem with passing Values from One report to another

    Hi,
    I am Hemanth, I have developed 2 reports. Firast Report High Level Summary, Secong is detailed. First report is developed using Union(4 union) , I am having 4 columns. The report is generating the data. I have used Navigation option on Client Column to move on to Second report. In Second report with in Filter i am using Prompted option. Due to some problem, the client value from first report is not passing to the second one. The second report is getting generated for all the clients.
    Normally i have used this Navigate option in other reports and that works fine. I have even tested with Union, it works. This time it is giving some trouble.
    Please, let me know whats going wrong.

  • Problems importing mail from one user to another on same computer

    Hi,
    I work from home so I created a new account on my computer so I could have a personal user and a business user. That way maybe I won't always end up working when I'm trying to relax. So I want to bring all my old work emails over the the new work account. But when I copy the mail files to the new user account and then try to import, the folders all have red circles with minus signs. I gather that this has something to do with permissions, but when I change the owner to the new user, they still have the red circles. I also tried just moving the whole mail folder over to the new user, but it's "read only".
    Both users are administrators. I'm running OS 10.4.4.
    Thanks in advance for any advice!

    Hi Andrew.
    What you tried to transfer the Mail folder from one user to the other should have worked, except I believe you didn't properly change ownership of the files and folders involved.
    7. open new user Mail
    8. Mail asks me to set up an email account
    This probably happened because you didn't change ownership of the com.apple.mail.plist file. If Mail doesn't have access permission to write to that file, it just deletes the file and creates a new one (Mail can delete the file because doing that requires write permissions for the directory the file is in, which it has). As a result of re-creating the preferences file, Mail asks you to set up your accounts from scratch all over again.
    14. change the ownership of the mail folder to the
    new user, but I still can't look inside the folder
    and it has the red circle with the minus sign.
    It looks like you tried changing ownership of the enclosing Mail folder only. Ownership of all the items within it must be changed as well. Unfortunately, there is no way to do this properly in the Finder, as the Apply to enclosed items button in the Get Info window also overwrites access permissions, not just the changes you make to ownership. Usually, this is wrong, as a different set of permissions may be appropriate for each item. In the particular case of the Mail folder, however, you can come close to doing the right thing as follows:
    1. In the Finder, go to HOME/Library/. Locate the Mail folder, select it and choose File > Get Info (⌘I). Under Ownership & Permissions, expand Details by clicking on it.
    2. Change the settings as follows (you may need to click on the lock icon to authenticate first). Owner: username, with "Read & "Write" access permissions; Group: username, with "Read only" access permissions; Others: "No Access".
    3. Click on the Apply to enclosed items button at the bottom of the Get Info window.
    4. Change Group access back to "No Access", which probably was (or should be) the initial setting when you opened the Info window.
    5. Close the Get Info window.
    The right way to (recursively) change ownership of the Mail folder without altering access permissions would be issuing the following command in Terminal:
    sudo chown -R username:username ~/Library/Mail
    And while you're at it, you may as well use Terminal to change ownership of the preferences file:
    sudo chown username:username ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist

Maybe you are looking for
