Problem with Integration Essbase cube with obiee

Hi Everyone,
I am in a OBIEE where i need to use Essbase cubes as source for generating OBIEE reports.I am able to import the cube successfuly into Physical layer and when i drag it into BMM layer its getting splitted up into Facts,dimensions and hierachies. No measure in fact table of cube in BMM layer. What i got to know was all the meaures what all needed for reporting are into one hierachy and when i get it into BMM layer its getting converted into Dimension. Here i tried to generate reports by making dimension as fact but no use.
Please suggest me ,any other ways to get it.
Regards
Sandeep Artham

Issue in integrating Essbase cubes with OBIEE

Hi
I am trying to use Essbase cubes as datasource in OBIEE for generating reports,but the issue is in generating , No columns in fact table of cube in BMM layer.
Outline of cube is
Revel(cube)
(Hierachies)
Time Time <5> (Label Only)
Item <54> (Label Only) (Two Pass)
DepInst <20> (Label Only)
SFA_Flag <2>
Deduction_Flag <2>
Rating_Category <6>
PD_Band <9>
Product <17>
Entity <4>
CR_Agency <5>
I am confused how to generate reports without measures in fact table.

Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
in that case it's as I thought:
Or did you just not specify any measure hierarchy?You tried this...
In BMM layer i made this dimension as fact and tried to create reports but not use....which isn't the way. First of all your cube seems to be built quite bizarre since it doesn't even provide a default measure hierarchy so I'd have your Essbase guys check that.
As for the OBIEE side: the key is the physical layer. BMM's already too late. In the physical cube object, you must define one of the hierarchies as the measure hierarchy (since your cube doesn't seem to provide it; see above):

Integrating Essbase cubes with Oracle Tables in BI Server

I'm trying to link together data from an aggregated Essbase Cube with some static table data from our oracle system. Both the essbase and oracle data exist correctly in their own right in the physical, business and presentation levels. Aggragted data is client sales, static data is client details
Within the OBIEE Administration tool I've tried to drag the physical oracle table for clients onto the clients essbase section in the business area, and it seems to work OK, until you try and report on them together and I get the following error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 42043] An external aggregate is found in an outer query block. (HY000)
Can anyone advise on what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Thanks Christian I found some very useful articles (one or two by you) - I'll have to look harder on the net before posting.
One thing I found out, with respect to vertical federation, that others may benefit from, is that I fuond it much easier to start from the most detailed level and then attach the less detailed source rather start with the less detailed and add the additional on.

Problem with OBIEE Web Service getHTMLForReport() Method

Hello, I´m trying to develop an example using the OBIEE Web Services and I have a problem with the method “getHTMLForReport(String pageID,String pageReportID,String sessionID)” (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12103_01/books/AnyWebServ/AnyWebServ_Methods8.html).
The problem is the next one: In the pageReportID parameter should contain a character string ID returned by the addReportToPage() method, but the addReportToPageMethod is a void method. (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12103_01/books/AnyWebServ/AnyWebServ_Methods4.html#wp1008810)
Which is the value of the pageReportID parameter?
Thank you.

Yes, there seems to be a bug in the oracle documentation. Basically, the second parameter of the addReportToPage() method is a free text. You can put "report101" as value of second parameter. Then you have to use the same string in the getHTMLForReport()method.
For example ..
addReportToPage(pageId, "report2", reportRef, "Jaggi Di Report", null, null, sessionID);
getHtmlForReport(pageId, "report2", sessionID);

Windows error when importing Essbase cube into OBIEE

Hi all:
This question is perhaps more relevant to the OBIEE forum, but I put it up there a few days ago and got no response. So now I'm hoping to get some help on this side of BI land!
My issue is that I'm trying to import an Essbase cube (system 11) into BI Admin Tool, but whenver I go to "Import from multidimensional" and hit "OK" after entering in the essbase server name and log/pwd, the BI Admin tool crashes. I get no error msg except for a couple of errors I see in the Windows event log:
1. Faulting application path: C:\OracleBI\server\Bin\AdminTool.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseClient\bin\essapinu.dll
2. Faulting application path: C:\OracleBI\server\Bin\AdminTool.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll
I'm running a standalone OBIEE 10.1.3.4 on my local machine (Windows 7 32-bit) and the Essbase Server is on a separate Windows 2008 machine. I can ping between machines and all ports are open on the Essbase machine, so I don't think this is a network related issue. Also, my OBI RPD is working fine in all other respects. I have other data sources working in there with no trouble. My Essbase server is also working fine. I also tried to do this in a new RPD in case the old one was corrupted, but get the same issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Akshay

Akshay,
You must have the Essbase client installed on the same machine where your OBI Administration Tool is installed. This should get you past the error that you are receiving and should fix your problem. Since you are running 32-bit just download the 32-bit Essbase client from Oracle. You will most likely need to run download the required files to install the Essbase client and with Hyperion 11x you should be familiar with that required software matrix since you have Essbase running on a seperate server already.
But now looking at your post I see that you state that one of the paths in your error is C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseClient\bin\essapinu.dll. The path C:\Oracle\Middleware is usually seen in Hyperion EPM 11.1.2. So, are you running Essbase 11.1.2 and OBIEE 10g or are you running OBIEE 11g? You'll need to specificy as OBIEE 11g can only interface with Hyperion Essbase 11.1.2 at present. And if I recall correctly the 11.1.2 Essbase client does not work with OBIEE 10g. Please clarify on these points.
Let me know if that helps fix your issue. If that doesn't fix it post back here and we see if we can keep you going forward.
Don't forget to reward points.

Problems in accessing Essbase cube using Interactive Reporting studio

Hi All,
I have developed a report in Interactive studio for which Essbase is the source. When i try to process my query i am getting the below error
"Request [Report] from user[username] was terminated since it exceeded the time limit"
Any idea as to how the time limit can be increased at essbase side.

I still can not resolve the problem. I am pulling up an attribute dimension in my report and that seems to be the root cause of the problem. When i remove this attribute dimension and generate the report with rest of the details the report renders without any issues.
can this be becuase the attribute dimension is "Dynamic Calc and Store" in Essbase cube and IR does not support certain essbase features such as Dynamic attribute dimensions ? This is quiet urgent and hence would need a quick response from ya'll

Importing Essbase cube in OBIEE

Hi Experts,
I have imported the Essbase cube in to the OBIEE physical layer but the attribute dimension and the base dimension are not mapped.
Please let me know how I can map the base dimension and the attribute dimension of Essbase cube in BMM layer.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for all your responses.
Apparently it turns out that the Accounts dimension Hierarchy needs to be changed to type 'Value' for the measures to start working.

Integrating Cognos Cubes into OBIEE

Hello,
Is there any way to integrate cognos cubes+ into OBIEE and use them in OBIEE..?
Thanks in Advance..

No direct one for the time being. You can't import Cognos metadata into the rpd like you would for Essabse or MS Analysis Services.
Check this post Cognos to OBIEE

Problem with OBIEE generated query

Hi All,
I'm working on OBIEE 10.1.3.4 version. For generating one report am using five tables , in thses five tables 2 are the fact tables and remaining all are dimensional tables.
In these five tables am using one or more colums in each table and we joined properly for these five tables(we are not getting any error on these joins). The problem is when ever i get query from OBIEE (Administration--->Manage sessions) its not generating a single query , instead of single query its splits into more queries..
Why its not generating the single query ,we are assuming that beacause of these reports are taking time to show the results.
Could you pls suggest me why i'm facing these and also i have these problem for only one report for remainig reports OBIEE is generating sine query.

Hi,
Please refer : multiple queries for single report
Why multiple queries ?
when we can find the multiple queries in view logn
Thanks,

Update member count error for essbase cube

Whenever i import a cube from essabse into obiee. i get the following error when i click on "update member count" on any member in the Physical layer of the obiee administration.
this problem comes even if i import a different cube, meaning this is not due to essbase error.

Month Sort Order Problem in Time Dimension(Essbase with Obiee)?

Hi All,
I am facing issue with month order in answers.
First I created BSO cube using Essbase Studio. When i exposed cube in answers, months were sorted in alphabetical order. So i used RANK function with evaluate to arrange month members in proper order. But if i use RANK function it pulls all missing records and it is effecting performance.
Then i created Time dimension(dimension loading) in essbase from FLAT file,initially it was coming in proper order. But after some time again it sorted in alphabetical order!!!
I have seen in internate few people saying they didn't face this problem. I
Please advice...
Essbase: 11.1.1.3
OBIEE: 10.1.3.4.1
RS

Hi user10300020,
That's a fairly common problem with months that happens regardless of database source.
In the logical layer of OBIEE you can specify the sort order on the month name column. Just double click on the month name column and look for the option to set sort order based on a different column. I typically sort the month name based on the month number.
Give that a shot and tell me if it works.

OBIEE 11.1.1.6 with Essbase Cube

Hi,
Anyone using Essbase cube as data source for OBIEE 11.1.1.6? which port should be open in Essbase server for OBIEE admin tool to import metadata?
When we use publisher for reporting, it is very slow with Essbase cube? anyone has issues here also
Thank you.
BCHK

Hi,
By default port no :1423 (Essbase) and for obiee (9704)
can you try to use 1423 also try
To finding the port no just login to your weblogic console(FMW) the
http://IP:7001/console ---> then go to Home-->servers-->here you can Admin Server/bi_Server are listed out with port no.just find it.
P.S: we just open firwal for below port no just fyi..
TCP(9703,9704,9705,9710,9810,80,443,1433,1423,8080,389,7001,7002,7003) ports
Thanks
