Programmatic creation of parent child GroupCollection

Hey peeps!
I am creating an ADG with data bound to an object who's source is from a MySQL table. In one instance the grid will display categories in a tree style expandable to show sub categories.
I have been trying to get the content to display but have been having problems. Prior to adding grouping I have confirmed that the data is there, however I think the problem may ( or may not ) stem from the parnet > child linking. Each category with a "parent_id" of 0 is a category, with each sub category having a parent_id of, obviously, it's parents id value.
What I was doing was creating a GroupCollection2 instance, a Grouping instance and a couple of GroupField instances, similar to this:
The obj.Result variable is the data returned from the server in JSON format which when decoded looks like this:
So you can see here the relationship between the id fields.
Now obviously this doesn't work or I wouldn't be here, but I cannot pinpoint whether I am assuming too much and need to better sort my data, or whether there is a flaw in my creation of the group fields/coll etc.
N.B.: I know the first image uses parent_id but the second uses cat_parent_id...not how it appears in the real code
Any help greatly appreciated.

Ok, I solved this issue by resorting my existing data into a proper hierachy in an array collection. I then cast that array collection as a HierachicalData and set its childrenField to the property name of the sub categories as defined in the array collection. After that, setting the dataProvider property of the ADG and validating it with ADG.validateNow(), everything worked.
So the problem on my part was not having my data in a hierachical form in the first place. Conceptually it was, but contextically it wasn't.
Anyone who wants to see the actual solution from getting the data from MySQL to getting it into an ADG can email me at paul at webtop-designs.com and I will put up an article describing how I did it in detail.
This was fun

OBIEE 11G - Creation of Parent child hirarchy

We need to create a parent child hierarchy for city wise branches
In our DB we have only one table - the same we need to consider as Dimension & Fact.
Attributes as follows:
customername, customernumber, accountnumber,city, branch, financialyear,financialquarter
We do not have primary key on above structure.
But we can get unique composite key by combining: Account Number, city & branch attributes.
Bangalore
- MG Road
- Silk Board
- Marthahalli
- Tinfactory
- silkboard
Hyderabad
- Ammerpet
- Abids
- Koti

Ok, so let me explain this in detail and give the structure of my tables and the data,
There are three tables.
1.Parent Child relationship table - pctable
2.Closure table which OBIEE creates through a script - reltable
3.Fact table which contains the revenue - facttable
This is the data
pctable
personid | managerid
David | NULL
Sandra| David
Joe|Sandra
reltable
memberkey | ancestorkey |distance |is_leaf
David|NULL|NULL|0
David|David|0|0
Sandra|Sandra|0|0
Joe|Joe|0|0
Sandra|David|1|0
Joe|Sandra|1|1
Joe|David|2|1
facttable
personid|revenue
David|5
Sandra|5
Joe|10
and my joins conditions are, I join pctable to reltable and then reltable is joined to facttable like this.
pctable.personid = reltable.ancestorkey
reltable.memberkey = facttable.personid
and then in the report, when I pull up the pchierarchy build from pctable and revenue , I get as below and like I said, when I click on Sandra to see the revenue she contributes, I am not able to navigate. Can you let me know what modifications needs to be done?
---David(20)

How to update a parent child hierarchy in OBIEE

Hello All
Quick question about updating parent child hierarchy in OBIEE.
As we know, OBIEE 11G allows us to create value based hierarchy by generating table creation script and insert script. In the typical example of employee dimension, the parent child relationship table will be created with the following 4 attributes:
MEMBER_KEY, ANCESTOR_KEY, DISTANCE, IS_LEAF
So, what if later in the years some of the employees got promoted, retired or transferred? The value based hierarchy is going to change because person 1 reports to manager 2 now instead of 1. Obviously, the records in employee dimension is going to be updated. When that happens, how to update the parent child relation table with the same information? Do we have to rerun the insert script? How do we keep the history of employee changes and hierarchy changes?
Please advice
Thank you

I guess it will update when the structure changes,Let see the response from other gurus.
Thanks,

Parent / Child lead management

Does anyone have experience using parent/child relationships with leads in SalesForce? I am currently looking into setting this up for our organization to answer the need for multiple business units to be able to work/manage their leads while maintaining a unified view of all the interactions with the lead.

Shane, not sure if you've solved this yet, but I see this use case quite often. The most scalable solution, while not the simplest, is to leverage apex triggers in SFDC to control the creation of children leads based on whatever your child-lead-creation criteria are. Visualforce can be used to then display and share activity across all related ( connected ) Leads as a related list, and child Leads can be worked independently by sales reps.
Here's the general scenario:
1. Prospect A submits a form indicating interest in product A.
2. Eloqua creates a PARENT LEAD in SFDC because this person does not already exist. The Lead ID is stored in the Eloqua contact field called Parent Lead ID.
3. Your Apex Trigger creates a CHILD LEAD, associated to the Parent Lead via Reference, based on product A.
4. Prospect A submits a form next week indicating interest in B
5. Eloqua updates the PARENT LEAD with product B (almost like it would with Lead Source - Most Recent).
6. The trigger evaluates that a CHILD LEAD does not exist with product B and creates one, associated to the Parent Lead via Reference, based on product B.
Your PARENT LEAD now has two children, one for product A and one for product B, which can be worked independently by sales reps, with the PARENT always remaining in place.
There's additional logic that needs to be incorporated into the trigger so that updates to the parent can be propagated to the correct child, as well as the need for a custom object in Eloqua to maintain the relationship between the Parent Lead and its Children.

Generation v/s Parent/Child

Hi, i try build a dimension with generation and parent/child option. Firts build the dimension with generation preference and after build with parent/child. I have two rules files, one with generation and other with parent/child these order, but when run the rule file for parent/child the memebers not add a dimension, why???? Saludos.

Hi Saludos, I have two rules files, one with generation and other with parent/child these order, but when run the rule file for parent/child the memebers not add a dimension - u mean to say in the outline the dimension name is not being created or the children for the dimension is not created. If it is first one then check whether you mentioned the rul file name or the outline name to create the dimension name. If the issue is the 2nd one then check whether you had chosen the method of dimension memeber creation (generation/level/parent-child). The default is Generation build. Hope you got some idea, if i understood the problem in the right sense. Regards R.Prasanna

Reverse Engineering fails to "identify" parent - child relationship

Using Reverse Engineering I obtained two classes - visual compapesence clearly shows that one is inherited from another.
I wish I could copy and paste individual "class Diagrams' for each of those two to demonstrate my point ...
How I could merge those two class diagrams together and "force"
to recognize "parent" <-> child relationship /

On possible solution is to create a diagram in each pacakge that was reverse engineered.
I agree with peter, that a single diagram would not be useful when revese engineering a large project. When diagram get that large, it is hard to see more than a couple of model elements at one time. While we do have the Navigate Link tool, it is still painful to navigate around the diagram. If you printed a diagram that big, it would take up an entire wall.
It is hard to determine what diagrams are needed to explain a software project. For this reason, we have tried to make it easy to build diagrams. Peter, mentioned the first mechanism. Create Diagram From Selected (CDFS) was designed to allow the user to select the model elements that need to populate a diagram. When performing CDFS the diagram will be populated, Relationship Discovery will be executed, and the diagram will be layed out.
Another approach is to create a dependency diagram. You can select a model element, and create a dependency diagram. The contents of a dependency diagram will be the model elements that the selected model element uses. For example, if the model element generalizes from another model element, the super class will be present on the diagram. If another model elements extends the selected model element, the subclass will not be represented on the dependency diagram.
Another diagram creation tool that might be needed is a inheritance diagram creator. An inheritance diagram creator, would make it very easy to see model element super classes, implemented interfaces, and the subclasses.
I hope this helps.

Query Help with Parent, Child, Child's Child

Hi all,
Need some help with a query. I'm trying to create a stored procedure that is sort of like a Customer, Order, Order, Details. In my situation the tables are different but nevertheless, I want to grab all the fields from the Parent, Child,
and Childs' Child, where the Parent.ParentID = @Parameter. I tried this:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spGetCompleteProjectXML]
@ProjectID int = 0
AS
SELECT *,
(SELECT *,
(SELECT *
FROM PageControls
WHERE (PageControls.ProjectPageID = ProjectPages.ProjectPageID))
FROM ProjectPages
WHERE (ProjectPages.ProjectID = @ProjectID))
FROM Projects
WHERE (ProjectID = @ProjectID)
FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS
RETURN 0
I think I'm close, but it was my best effort. Could someone help?
thanks in advance

Problem with saving Parent - Child View Objects in ADF 11g.

Hi Every one,
I have a requirment, something like I will be displaying some data on my jsff screen based on one Transient View Object. Whenever user clicks on Save button, I have to do following steps in my AMImpl.
-> Preapre dynamically Parent View Object Rows based on some logic
-> Prepare dynamically Child View object Rows and invoke insertRow method on respective child view object.
When I say commit() First Parent ViewObject data need to be saved and then Child View object data has to be saved. I am having Parent - Child Key relation ship btw these two ViewObjects. Some how I am populating the Parent Primary key in the Child View Object. Please suggest me If there is any other alternative to this.
Thanks

I got the solution, Enabling the check box option for Master - Detail Entity association (CompositionAssociation -> Cascade Update Key Attributes) resolved the issue.

Does table STPOX contain parent-child relationship between components

Hello
I need to get a list of components of SO BOM.
FM CS_BOM_EXPL_KND_V1 exports an output table STPOX.
Does this table contain parent-child relationship between components? If yes , can somebody tell me which fields contain parent child id.
thanks

Hi,
STPOX is not a table, it is a structure & hence there is no storing of data in a structure. The table which stores this info is STPO.
To get the link you can refer to STPO-STLNR & pass this value to MAST-STLNR, this way you can link the child with its parent.

Vivek

How to allow Sharepoint users to login from multiple parent-child accounts?

Our client has mutliple AD domains and wants to allow people which have multiple AD accounts in multiple domains to login as THE SAME user:
- only primary account will be visible in search
- there will be only one user profile with all informations gathered from all sub accounts
- permissions for the sub account will be in sync with parent account
- task generated for parent will be visible for child accouns too etc
- ad admin can link the account together in the Active Directory - this link is permament (even if we move users to another OU) and ad admin can define which account is primary and secondary (parent/child)
How we can implement this in Sharepoint 2010 Std Server?

Everything in SharePoint keys of the Security Identifier (SID) of a user. Each user in a domain has a unique SID, so there is no way to have multiple users recognized in SharePoint as the same user.

Getting parent-child data from a single column in a table

Hi,
I have a parent-child data in a column.
Eg:
0
00
01
010
011
1
10
11
These values are present in the single column itself. My need is to get the parent values for the given child value.
For eg: If I am giving the input as 011, the query should return all its parents, i.e. 01 and 0
Could you please give me any inputs on this?
Thanks,

No data for Parent-child hierarchy column in Pivot table view

Hi all,
I used OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 Version.
I drag one Parent-child hierarchy column and one measure and show result with a pivot table view.
But when I click "+" icon to show detail level data,
It messaged that: "*the layout of this view combined with the data,selections,drills,or prompt values chosen resulted in no data*."
But it can show every-level data when I used table view.
It was so strange..
Did anybody meet this before?
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Anne

Hi,
Yes, I have the same problem with pivot table for hierarchy dimension.
If you use a normal table (not pivot) it seem to work. Unfortunatley with restrictions as normal table view have.
Same problem still exist in 11.1.1.6.5
I have logged a SR to Oracle about this.

Parent Child Hierarchy Issue in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I am in OBIEE 11G v6. I have a sales fact table where the grain is one sale. So I have one row for every sale done.
Now I have a ragged employee hierarchy like this with David at the root node.
David >>Richard>>Sean
David >>James
Also, I have a role dimension which gives me what role each employee has performed on a sale. Only one employee can be associated with one sale. This is the way Roles have been asssigned
David = Manager
Richard = Off1
Sean = Off2
James = Off2
Both Sean and James can have same Roles. Now I have created a parent child hierarchy for my employee dimension and the closure table. Defined the member key, ancestor key relationship in the parent child setting etc.
Now in the report when I pull the parent child hierarchy and the sales_amount in the report, it comes out perfect with all the ragged hierarchy resolved. But the issue comes when I try to limit the report on Role = Off2. It gives me an error saying " The layout of this view combined with the data, selection , drills resulted in no data. Undo drill and view prompt values". Basically what i want is to be able to select any role type and then my hierarchy should be adjusted to show me that data. Like when I select Off2, I want to see David at the Top level and Sean and James under him because they are both Off 2 and David is their manager.
Is that possbile? Also, am I getting this error because when I select Off2 though it gets Sean and James but since David is not Off2, I don't get the data?
I hope I was able to explain the issue, any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ronny

So basically this means that if I build a parent child hierarchy on table A having the stucture like
--David (Manager)
-----James (Off1)
--------Bill (Off2)
and in my sales fact table for let's say today, I have only rows for Bill (Off2) because he is the only officer who did the sales today. Now when I will join my fact table to parent child hierarchy table A I will NOT get any data ? because there is no James who is the parent of Bill. So obiee need to have parent pulled off in the data (ANCESTOR) to be able to roll up the child.(IS_LEAF = 1)
I testes this and if my data only contains only rows for Bill (or I limit on ROLE = Off2) then it won't show the hierarchy. The query which OBIEE fires is to look for either ANCESTOR_KEY = NULL OR (DISTANCE = 1 AND ANCESTOR KEY IN (Bill). Therefore it doesn't I am wondering then what is the use of builiding the parent child hierarchy when we need to pull in all the ancestors (like in this case James for bill and David for james) because in real scenarios there can be cases wherein we would want to filter the data based on other dimensions to which the parent child hierarchy joins ?
