Prompt Constrain between two facts
Hello All,
I have two facts at different granular levels.
My prompt uses some conformed dimensions and some non conformed.
also in my prompt I have
my measure columns as edit boxes as the user want to give filters like >=100 etc.
Now I want to constrain my prompts.
I have a promt from a conformed dimension, I want it to show all the values i.e,
dimension values for fact 1
and dimension values for fact 2.
so basically somethin like
union of all the values.
But it also needs to constrain to other prompts
Is there a way I can acheive this?
Thanks,
Deep
Hi All,
If any one has achieved this functionality, pls share with me.
while going through some posts have come across mdx queries, does this help in resolving my problem?

Bridge Table between two fact tables
Hello everybody,
From what I have read on the BI Administration tool help and on this forum, bridge tables are used to define many-to-many relations between dimension sand fact tables. Is it possible to have a bridge table defining a many-to-many relation between two fact tables?
Here is my senario:
1. We have a fact table called fact_Orders describing orders for some products.
2. We have a fact table called fact_Sales describing sales og these products.
3. We have a table describing the transformation from order lines to sales lines which is a many-to-many relation, because it is possible to transform an order in more than two steps.
I was thinking of connecting the two fact tables with a bridge table.
If bridge tables are inappropriate for this case, what could be a better model for my senario?
Thanks for your time.Hi,
Well a conformed dimension is a bridge table between two facts, so not sure why you need anything else. If there is a one to many from D1 to F1 and a one to many from D1 to F2 then effectively there is a many to many join from F1 to F2 through the D1 dimension.
Sounds to me like all you need is an order dimension table, rows in the orders fact table will join to this dimension and so will rows in the sales fact table. You can then do calculations like number of sales per order, total sales revenue per order, # of order items per order etc etc.

Connection between two fact tables.
I have a problem in OBIEE 10.1.3.2:
I have two fact tables A and B. Both tables have three columns - time_id, position_id and valuea (table A), time_id, position_id and valueb (table B). I have dimensions TIME (id, time) and POSITION (id, post). Facts A and B are connected to dimensions and
both queries
select TIME.time, POSITION.post, A.valuea,
select TIME.time, POSITION.post, B.valueb
work properly.
But it is definitely impossible to execute query
select TIME.time, POSITION.post, A.valueA, B.valueB.
[NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 15018] Incorrectly defined logical table source (for fact table A) does not contain mapping for [B.VALUEB]. (HY000)
Another two fact tables in the same application I can join in any query wihout any problem.
How is it possible?
Thanks for your help
JiriHow did you joined two Fact tables. Did you use Dimension table between?

Relationship between two facts
I have 2 fact tables (Encounter and Visit) which have an optional 1 to many relationship. For a query the users are trying to run, they are using DepartmentDim, which is related to both facts, and AppointmentStatusDim, which is related ONLY to VisitFact.
They want to see a count of encounters by department and appointment status. The problem is when they pull in the count from the Encounter measure group, it is showing the same count for all of the values in each row.
How do I need to create the relationship between the two fact tables so that I can use dimensions that are related to only one fact table but pull in a measure from the other fact?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
AndySounds like you need a bridge table to complete the M2M relationship...
FactVisit
DepartmentKey
AppointmentStatusKey
EncounterGroupKey
FactEncounter
DepartmentKey
EncounterGroupKey
BridgeVisitEncounter
EncounterGroupKey
DimAppointmentStatus <-- FactVisit --> BridgeVisitEncounter <-- FactEncounter
This will allow you to slice measures in the FactEncounter measure group by attributes in the DimAppointmentStatus dimension...

SSAS 2008 Linking two cubes on the foreign key between two fact tables
Hi, all --
I have two cubes:
Cube 1 has Fact1 (F1, "Events") and 3 dimensions (D1, D2, D3)
Cube 2 has Fact2 (F2, "Sales") and 3 dimensions (D4, D1, D6)
As you can see, two cubes reuse D1 as their common dimension. In addition, F2 foreign keys into F1, e.g. F1 is "Events", and F2 is "Sales". Every "sale" is an "event", but not every "event" is
a "sale".
The question is, how to I link the two cubes and their two respective fact tables on the foreign key?
Thanks, Austin.Hi Austin,
According to your description, you want to retrieve data from two different cubes, right? In Analysis Services, to query multiple cubes from a single MDX statement you can use the LOOKUPCUBE function (you can't specify multiple cubes in your FROM statement).
The LOOKUPCUBE function will only work on cubes that utilize the same source database as the cube on which the MDX statement is running. For the detail information about it, please refer to the link below to see the blog.
Retrieving Data From Multiple Cubes in an MDX Query Using the Lookupcube Function
If I have anything misunderstood, please point it out.

Forcing full outer join between two facts according to common dimensions
Hi everyone,I have an issue with the way obiee "joins" 2 fact tables regarding according to common dimensions.
Let's assume 2 fact tables F1 and F2 and 2 dimension D1 and D2.
Fi is joined to Dj thanks to IDs.
F1 and F2 have got aggregates sum(mes1), respectively sum(mes2).
The group by is performed on dim1 for D1 and dim2 for D2.
The following 2 queries work fine...but separately:
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) from F1, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2; //7 lines
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes2) from F2, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2; //8 lines
When I try to select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) and sum(mes2), the following sql is created by the BI server:
WITH SAWITH0 AS (
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) c3 from F1, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2
), SAWITH1 AS (
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes2) c3 from F2, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2
select ... dim1,
... dim2,
... SAWITH0.c3,
... SAWITH1.c3
FROM SAWITH0 LEFT OUTER JOIN SAWITH1
on SAWITH0.dim1=SAWITH1.dim1 and SAWITH0.dim2=SAWITH1.dim2
I get only 7 lines. It means I miss one line from the second query on F2.
The solution is to perform a full outer join. (I tried in TOAD and changing LEFT by FULL is ok)
How can I force the full outer join?
Thanks a lot!If you use the fact vertical capabilities of OBIEE, it will normally perform a full outer join :
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/logical_sql/obiee_full_outer_join
Check here for an example (replace the fact cross join by your second fact table F2)

Constrains between two controls
Hi,
i have two controls on the FP, each with values from 0 to 512. Is is possible to connect this controls, that if the control 1 has a value of e.g. 130, the second one can't set to a lower value? I need this for the control 2 as well, so that if you select a value of 30, the control 1 shouldn't set higher than 30. I think its not to difficult, but i don't get it.
Thanks in advance.For us (or you) to implement something like this, the first step is to define what should happen in each case (what if control is already set higher than your limit....?).
So write-up a table identifying each condition and the action that should occur in each case.
Once the "challenge" is clearly defined the solution will reveal itself.

Two facts with conformed dimension
Starting new thread per Alistair's request :)
I have two facts
Class Enrollment (who is enrolled in which classes)
External Test Scores (who got what score on what exam)
The only dimension they have in common is "Person".
Is it possible to build a presentation layer that includes both facts, the Person dimension, and dimensions that related to one fact but not the other (e.g. dimension "External Test Type" or dimension "Course")?
How would I set up the BI metadata to answer the question:
What was the average grade for Course ABC for students who scored above a 50 on test XYZ?
So far, for External Test Scores fact, I have created hierarchies(/dimensions) for any related dimension tables that didn't already have hierarchies defined. I then went to the Content tab for External Test Scores and set aggregation levels (lowest level for everything related to the fact, "total" level for everything NOT related to the fact).
I put both facts and the "Person" dimension into a presentation folder. I can query test scores ok, but when I add in a simple "Row Count" column from class enrollment, I get no data back.
Do I now go back and do the same Content tab settings for the Class Enrollment fact? My initial attempts at this yielded consistency check warnings of "Logical table source does not join to any fact source".
Huge thanks for suggestions.
-JohnHi John,
I tend to harp on a lot about the need for a hierachy on every logical dim, even just total -> detail. It allows this (non-conformed) approach for starters, also allows another developer to quickly ascertain the relationship between objects.
About the complex joins, I meant do as you will have done for a normal star with just the conformed dims, so thats Foreign keys where applicable in the Phyiscal layer, and Complex joins where applicable in the BMM layer. I just wanted to make a point that you should do this as per a normal normal star schema with fully conformed dimensions, and merely that the none-conformed dimension will only be connected to its relevant fact table - probably didnt need to say it as it may be more confusing!
Your correct with aggregation rules, ideally all objects in a logical fact should have an aggregation rule - otherwise it should be in a logical dimension.
As to the approach, this is the way i've always handled non-conformed dimensions when the requirement is to see both facts on the same report. Our Peak Indicators OBIEE training material on this subject is as follows :
"order" fact table, dimensioned by Date, Customer, Product.
"inventory" fact table dimensioned by Product only.
Report requirement - Show me all orders where the order_qty (order fact) is greater than the total qty in stock (inventory fact)
So like your example, we sum up both qty's and use a where clause to filter only rows where one fact measure is greater than another measure.
Whats the ideal approach ??
If you had control of the ETL perhaps you could seed an 'unknown' record in the non-conforming dimensions, and then reference this on the other fact table, but I'd say the majority of the time, the customer who wants everything by everything in their subject area needs a little education, its really not good for end users having 10's of folders with 10's of columns - we should be creating analysis subject areas to enable the answering of business questions, theres no reason why we cant combine reports from different subject areas on one dashboard page, all using a common set of prompts, but there really isnt a need to give an end user the whole BMM / DW etc in one go.......unless they are paying of course, and after you've tried to educate them they want it there way :-) -
Prompt constrain doesn't work with chart navigation
Hi,
i've following issue.
I've a dashboard page X with two prompts State and Country. Country is constrained to first prompt (i've checked "Constrain" check - box in prompt definition). In the same page i've a bar chart with navigation rule to a target dashboard page Y.
When i click on it, constrained prompt doesn't work, in fact it doesn't filter Countries depending first prompt but select All Countries.
Example:
Page X :
In prompt State i select "Italy"-> prompt Country is correctly constrained. In fact it shows correctly "Rome, Florence, Turin and so on
Click on bar chart (in chart properties setted navigation rule to page dashboard Y)
Page Y:
Prompt State is filled with "Italy" -> prompt Country isn't constrained. In fact it shows even states that don't belong to Italy State.
Why ?
There's a solution?
Thanks
GiancarloHi Balaa,
i've substituted my filter definition with 'is prompted' and now it works. But i don't understand why. Can you explain how are correlated request filters (is prompted) and prompt values?
Thanks
Giancarlo

0x00000000 0x00000001Hi Keegan,
Your tunnel is up and encrypting traffic one way, the other end is not able to encrypt the traffic.
I would suggest to do a 'clear xlate'? Sometimes if you setup the nonat configuration after you've attempted other configurations, you need to 'clear xlate' before the previous NAT configuration is cleared and the new one works.

Unable to find line break between two lines in attachment file.
Dear all I will be very great full if someone help me out,
I am trying to send mail through SMTP server with an attachment of oracle report, but I am unable to find line break between two lines, when I down load the attachment from mail and open attach.txt file by double click on it. Next line starts right after previous line ends, it should starts with new line.
In order to send an attachment file, I am reading source file line by line and put MIME protocol’s attachment instance, contain of source file is being properly written into target file if I open that attachment on cmd prompt.
Following code may help you to understand the case.
Thanks in advance.
My code is as follows:-
create or replace procedure bec_file_test
v_subject varchar2, -- Subject of the email
v_body varchar2, -- Body of the email
v_from VARCHAR2 default 'XYZ.com', -- sender mail id
v_to varchar2 default 'XYZ.com', -- Field To of the email
v_cc varchar2 default 'XYZ.com' -- cc address
) is
-- variable to hold the smtp server connection
v_smtp_connection utl_smtp.connection;
-- variable to hold the smtp host name
v_smtp_host varchar2(100) default 'mail.bec-group.com';
-- variable to hold the smtp port
v_smtp_port number default 25;
-- composite of {CR}{LF} caridge return and line feed.

Is it possible to share 1 bluetooth keypad and 1 mouse pad between two computers in target mode? Grab a drink and let me tell you my story.
I purchased two computers... an iMac 27" i7 3.4 16GB RAM and a Mac mini 2.3 i5 8 GB RAM. Both have Thunderbolt capability and are in fact connected by thunderbolt. I have 3 problems...
1. My Mac mini WILL NOT recognize any bluetooth keyboard. Let me back up for clarification. I set my iMac up first. No problems there. I then went on to set up my mac mini. A couple of interesting things happened concering bluetooth activity. First thing is that the keypad, which was already paired with my iMac wouldn't be recognized by the mac mini, and yet my bluetooth mouse which was paired with my iMac became paired with my mac mini and thus wouldn't be recognized by my iMac anymore. I had to go to my back room and dig out my other bluetooth mouse so that my iMac would at least recognize my second mouse. So now I have two "mice"presently. One for the mac mini, the other for the iMac. Thankfully I also had a USB keypad for my mac mini. My bluetooth keypad is still paired with my iMac but won't pair with my mac mini, which brings me to another question....
2. CAN 1 KEYPAD AND 1 MOUSE PAIR WITH TWO DIFFERENT COMPUTERS SO THAT WHEN I GO INTO TARGET MODE VIA THUNDERBOLT I CAN USE THE SAME KEYPAD AND MOUSE FOR BOTH COMPUTERS? Anybody have some thoughts on that problem?
3. WHY IN THE WORLD IS MY MOUSE CURSOR DISAPPEARING EVERYTIME I EXIT TARGET MODE VIA PASSWORD AND COMMAND F2. I'm using target mode to access my mac mini. But when I exit target mode to get back into my iMac I'm looking at my iMac screen but I can't see the mouse pointer! I can move the pointer around even though I can't see it. Wierd. And this has apparently been going on for some time with other users for over a year. I am presently completely up to date on Lion updates. Both systems are running 10.7.4. Does anyone have a solution or heard a rumor of a solution coming soon regarding the invisible mouse cursor "curse". I hate having to restart my iMac everytime I exit out of target mode just so I can get my mouse cursor visible again.
Food for thought.... Wouldn't it be really cool to have a target mode capability to see your other computers desktops in seperate window screens on your main display. You then could go back and forth from each window by just double clicking or by certain key commands. You could drag and drop from desktop to desktop. Tell me this is coming soon.

Sharing One iPhoto Database Between Two Accounts
Below is a reply to a question I have regarding sharing photos with my wife on the same Mac. I would like for us both to able to upload, edit, and use photos from the same iPhoto database. Do all of the buggaboos listed in the reply below still apply?
Thanks,

For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same macbook pro?
Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same MacBook Pro?
Specifically, I used the Migration Assistant to move music and photos from my old PC to my new MacBook.
Somehow, I missed the fact that it was creating a new user account when it was doing this. So none of music and photos are in the user account I originally set-up. Instead, all these files are now in a different account.
I'd like to consolidate all my files on the one user account and delete the other one.
Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?
Thank you.you can crop files from one account to another using the Public Dropbox which every user account has. Log into the user that has the files you want to move, then drag the folder you want to the new users' dropbox:
I suggest a small scale test on a few files first before moving gigabytes of files. -
Sharing iPhoto Library between Two User Accounts
Is there any way to fully share a single iPhoto library between two user accounts on one machine (iMac 2.0GHz dual core Intel, 10.5.1, iPhoto '08), without using an external drive (because I don't have one)? By share, I mean each user has full rights and priveledges to the entire library, regardless of who uploaded the pics. Holding down the option key on iPhoto startup does not work because my wife can't access the pics I loaded even though she's pointing to the shared library in a shared folder.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. then:
Quit iPhoto in both accounts
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. *You could also use a dmg*.
(Some people have had success putting the library in the Users/ Shared folder. If you do this make sure the file permissions are set to allow read/write access to everyone. But that's unlikely to work on 10.5 because of the way that the permissions have changed with the new OS.)
In each account in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.
