Problem with drill down and hierarchies :(

Hi,
i've been working on the following issue for about 2 days, but i just cant find a solution.
I got this data schema:
Department     Account Manager     Customer     KPI     Jan 09     Feb 09
BM-A     Max, Musermann     Comp1     Actual     1.982,24     2.043,55
BM-A     Max, Musermann     Comp1     Target     2.002,06     2.002,68
BM-A     Max, Musermann     Comp1     Forecast     2.045,00     2.121,00
BM-B     Fred, Feuerstein     Comp2     Actual     1.982,24     2.043,55
I want to display all 3 KPIs (Actual, Target, Forecast) in one chart. But the user should be able to view the data in different hierarchies. I.e. sum of all departments, sum on the level of account manages and on the level of customer....
So I need 3 filters (department, account manager, customer)... ?! But how do I achieve to sum the data for the differents months?
I hope you understand waht I need...
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel
The easiest way would be to have your data re-aggregated to the levels you need and then organise your data to enable the pie chart to show the summaries based on a ComboBox selection or something.
If getting the data pre-aggregated isn't an option I would look at investing in Centigon's Filtered Summary Component:

Problem with drill down in time dimension - OBIEE 11G

Hello There,
I have a problem with drill down in time dimension. The hierarchy for time dimension is " Fiscal Year---> Fiscal Quarter---> Month(Name)--->Date". When I select a Time dimension and click results its getting opened in a Pivot table view. The problem here is, when I click the "Total" its getting drilled down to Year ---> Quarter but when I click on "+ sign next to quarter" it should drill down to month for that particular quarter for that particular year but its drilling down to month for that particular quarter for all years.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harry.

1.) Congrats for resurrecting a year-old thread.
2.) Your answer is here: "Check the level key of the quarter level...it should include both quarter and year columns. Since a specific quarter occurs every year, quarter column alone can't be used as the level key."

Hi user 552235...
I am not sure if my next post will help you, since I am not working with portal, but I had a problem with drill to link in the same disco version (10.1.2.48.18) and the problem solved after applying patch 5507746 for bug 5475467.
You can read more in metalink with the number I supplied you and try in a test environment of course...
Hope this will help you solving your problem, if it does please update the thread for the rest of our community...

Problem with drill down on hierarchy with data on diffrent levels

Hello,
Im working on a project using oracle bi 10.1.3.4.1, and im kinda stuck with some problems.
I have a transaction table in which i have data about products, something like :
prod_id
amount1
amount2
and a product hierarchy which is something like:
prod_id
prod_name
parent_id
since bi doesnt support hierarchies, i had to faltten the hier table to somehing like this:
prod_id
lvl1_prod_id
lvl2_prod_id
lvl3_prod_id
lvl4_prod_id
and use this as my hierarchy in oracle bi. thus when i drill to lvl3, it will find all the products which are decendents of lvl3 value and group them.
the problem is, that the hier tree is not even, one product data (in transaction table) can be for lvl4 and another for lvl2. so for a lvl2 product id's in level 3 and 4 will be null.
when i try to drill to lvl 4, it takes all the rows which have the selected value in column lvl4 and group them, and if lvl 4 is null, it would sum up all the rows that have no parent at lvl4...
i hope you understand... cause it is a bit complicated..
anyway i would eventually like to add a filter of != null to the column being drilled down.
but how do i know which column is it?
i cant add a != null filter to all the columns since most if not all of them will have null in some lvl (lvl 10 or so).
one suggested solution was to make a report for each lvl with the !=null filter on the report lvl, and use navigate instead of drilldown... but that would mean i have to make 10 reports for each "real" report... a big problem to maintain.
hope i was clear enough, any suggestions?
thanks a lot!

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for your reply. If I combine two objects in one objects then I cannot use that object for drill down in my report.
I want to drill down for both Key and Text.

Problem with drill down

Hello,
Everybody.
I am new to Application Express and I ask excuse for my English .
I must construct an application that has this structure using the drill down:
Initial report (the data is the result of a query)
NOME1
NOME2
At the moment when clicking on NOME1, a new report in a new region opens with the result of the filter query whith the link, example:
NOME1 SERVIZIO1
NOME2 SERVIZIO2
I would like that when clicking on NOME1 the SERVIZIO1, SERVIZIO2 will appear under NOME1 (in the same report and region), example:
NOME1
SERVIZIO1
SERVIZIO2
NOME2
Is it possible to make this with the drill down?
Thanks in advance.

Problem with Drill down using Pie chart

Hi all,
I have a dashboard which displays sales according to product category in which I'm using combo box for category.
Based upon the selection the corresponding products are displayed in the Pie chart and when I click a particular
product its total sales value should be displayed in a Guage.
The problem is if for one category there are 10 products the pie chart is showing only 5 labels if drill down option is checked
and if its not then its showing all the products......
What could it be ??
Thanks
John

Hi John
Is this fixed now?

Problem with Drill down reports demo

Hi,
Did somebody successfully installed the
drill down demo. I am not able to get the results here getting some javascript error
"object expected".
I have created a schema,
also the cgicmd.dat report variables
attahced the rep_util file.
I could see the invoices report and the product link displays
javascript:opendetailwin('http:/myserver/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?item+101863')
when i clik on the above link i get object expected error.
The Javascript on view source page looks like this
<script language="JavaScript">

</SCRIPT>
any help will be higly appreciated. Also is there any other way of implementing drill down reports on web.
Thanks in advance,
Shailesh

Hello,
Try making your hyperlink in the master report look like this:
http://webserver/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?detail+p_contactid=&<contact_id1>
The &<column_name> reference in a hyperlink will tell Reports to substitute the current value of that column in the resultant string.

Query with drill down and w/o drill down

Hi experts,
We created a query with a RKF. In the output we are getting the RKF value correctly. But when we dril
downed a characteristic i.e Special GL Ind the output is not matching. It is showing incorrect value when
compared with the value without drill down. But if we remove the drill down then it is showing the correct
value. What is the reason for this ?
Regards,
smitha.

Our RKF def is as follows:
Keyfigure: 0deb_cre_lc
Chars:
Posting Keys: 01,02,11,12
Year start date: Restricting it with a variable created on it. Variable is of type Customer exit.This variable
gets value from key date which is entered by user dynamically.
Specified the offsets of Yr start date as 0 to 365.

smitha.

Problems with shutting down and firmware on HP Designjet 110 plus

Hi all, I have managed to install my HP Designjet 110 onto my MAC (OSX 10.9.5) using a later driver for another Designjet model. However I am having two weird problems! 1. If the paper misfeeds it quite often shuts the printer down for a a few minutes or longer, eventually it just comes back to life itself but it is as if it is getting no power? I have checked error codes and am getting mostly 79.04 codes and some 83.01 and 86.01 and 33.01 which doesn't seem to exist? 2. I tried to install a firware update as it is using S.05.02 but refuses to do it through the HP utility even after re-installing? I am being driven insane!!

This forum is focused on consumer level products. For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP Designjet forum here.

Problems with Drill Down

Gurus,
I have a really wierd situation!
I have a couple of queries that run off a multiporvider and with the initial run they work fine. But as i drilldown by adding filters the report seems to generate miscalculations. Its in the BEx Analyzer where this whole process is taking place. Any suggestions would be rewarded. Thanx a million.
PS: Variable offsets used & data is plan/actuals

I am pretty sure that characteristic is existing and is common but i will check again. The situation is like...
Its Sales Planning and Actuals. Primary object is Plant and drilldown is by material. We have a couple of infoproviders on which the multiprovider sits. First run gives good calcualted values and all columns are populated by formulas but drilldown is creating miscalculations. Thank you.

I have a problem with shut down and log out

They seemed to be doubled on my list all of a sudden. And also i have this dark black box around places i can select or type in never had that before either. Is it a virus?

Hi Stacey,
when you have this in OSX, then have a look at the Universal Access Preferences in the System Preferences.
Make sure that these are turned off.

HT4060 I'm having some problems with my ipad and charging it. I am having to leave it in charge for a lot longer, but when I take it out and want to use it the battery is still not completely full and goes down a lot faster than usual

I'm having some problems with my ipad and charging it. I am having to leave it in charge for a lot longer, but when I take it out and want to use it the battery is still not completely full and goes down a lot faster than usual. The other day, I had charged my iPad overnight so that I could take it to university with me for the day, and when I had switched it on the next day the battery was on 5% and I had not used it since charge.

Your battery may be dying. THey are only good for so many charges/discharges. If you have an apple store near by make an appointment and have them check itout

Drill Down and Drill UP on Web Analysis Report

Hi all,
I have a question regarding Drill down and Drill up on Web Analysis Report.
The situation is the following:
I've created a report with some account parent elements in row. The dimension account has a multiple hierarchy.
I need to drill down on the child of these elements keeping the parente on top and so i've selected the option "Selected Member First".
The drill down it's ok for the first drill to go on the next level but when i drill down once more to go on the next level of the selected member hierarchy the drill move this level out hierarchy.
Can someone help me on this point?
After that i've drilled just to the last level when i drill up on these elements to return on the previous level i note that in the report happens a strange thing:
The Drill Up works fine but on the report appears another elements which is the same parent with anothe code/alias of another hierarchy instead of the Selected member.
On this i've noted tha this 2 different parente have the same elements...I think that the children of the selected memeber can be shared members....Can be this the problem?
Thanks for the help.
Best Regards
Eugenio Gualtieri

Hi John,
thanks for your answer.
I've trayed to set the report on Smart View to virify tou test your advise.

W10007 - RICAVI DA SPAZIO PUBBL. INTERASA
W10029 - RETTIFICA RICAVI PUBBL. INTERASA
If I take only one parent member the drill up works fine but if i take all 2 memeber as above and i decide to drill up on one of the two element occur that the drill work for the two elements at the same time.
Afetr the drill in this case the situation is:
IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
ED05101010-PUBBLICITA'
Can be a problem due to shared memebers?
Thanks for your help.
