Prompt selection

Hi,
in dashboard prompt user can select date values with between operator. after user selected date values if selected range greater than 10 days, can we restrict range? can we send alert message to user?
thanks.

We cannot send any alert message,But we can display the message under the prompt.
You can do this by giving the description when you are creating the column.
Mark if helps,
Thanks,

Need to Display columns depending on the prompt selection

I need to show the only the columns as per the prompt selection given by the user.
Suppose there are 5 prompts say (first name, last name, phone number, address, DOJ). All the prompts should be optional. If the user gave input for first name and last name then only this two columns must be displayed in the report.

Yes it is possible but you will have to write down formulas for these columns.
First add all required object in your report and format them in your report.
Now say you want Last name to appear when you user enters last name in prompt.
Write down following formula
Report Detail Area
=If(UserResponse("Last Name"))="USER INPUT" Then [LNAME]
For column Heading you can use
=If(UserResponse("Last Name"))="USER INPUT" Then "Column Heading"
The same pattern may be applied for other columns.

Request based on Prompt selections.

Hi All,
Please let me know if this requirement is feasible through OBIEE.
I have a dashboard Prompt which has three columns. These three columns are constrained as per the hierarchy.
Country
State
District.
I have three requests which show Region, Sales based on the Region
Request 1 : Shows District level sales
Request 2 : Shows State level sales
Request 3 : Shows Country level sales.
Now the requirement is:
a) When I select District only( State and Country as All Choices) or State and District or Country and State and District
then the lowest level only should be shown i.e. Request 1 should show up ( only for District).
b) When only State is selected ( Country and district as All Choices) or Country and State is selected then show only the State level request (Request 2).
c) When only Country is selected ( State and District as All Choices) then show only the Country level request ( Request 3).
That means based on the Prompt selection, only One Request should be shown in the dashboard any time.
Please let me know if this is achievable.
Thanks in advance.

Some user cannot save Dashboard Prompt Selections OBIEE

We are having issue with some users cannot able save dashboard prompt selections of themselves, even though the group they belong to has rights to it.
This issue happens only for some users, it works fine for other users. They all belong to the same group.
Access privilege on the Saved Selections is set for "Everyone".
Any help will be great appreciated

Verify if the 'My folders' for each user has been enabled or not. Usually , if 'My Folders' is disabled for that user there would'nt be any "_selections" folder created in the individual user catalog folder. Once the "My Folders" is enabled for that user via Manage Previlages , the users should be able to save the dashboard prompt selection 'for themselves and also for other too'.All the selections by the user would be saved to this folder.

HT4191 How do I get to "When prompted, select Delete Notes to remove the duplicates from the device."? I can't get to this!

I have duplicate Notes on my iphone 4 (upgraded to iOS 5.1.1) I have followed your instructions to remove the duplicates. How do I get "select Detete Notes" to appear on my Mac? I have connected my phone to my Mac and selected it in iTunes. I clicked the Info pane and deselected the option to Sync Notes. THEN WHAT should I do? How do I get the prompt "Select Delete Notes to remove the duplicates from the device. (I do want to sync them using the over-the-air feature.)

I would try the following:
First sync your phone with iTunes to create a new backup (just in case). When done, disconnect your phone from your computer.
Next be sure that all of your Notes are on your mac (Don't proceed any further if they aren't). If so, turn off iCloud syncing for Notes on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and turning Notes to Off. When prompted choose to delete the notes from your phone.
Next, without connecting your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to iTunes>Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
Now connect your phone to your computer, click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar.
Go to the Info tab and under Other check Sync Notes, then further down under Advanced: Replace information on this iPhone, check Notes.
Click Apply at the bottom right to sync your phone. This should sync the Notes from your mac to your phone and you should no longer have duplicate Notes.
Next, on the Info tab uncheck Sync Notes and click Apply, when prompted select to keep the Notes on your phone (haven't tested this step but I believe you will be given the option to keep them on your phone).
Now disconnect your phone from your computer and check the Notes on your phone to confirm that they are still there and that you don't have any duplicates.
Next turn on iCloud syncing on your phone again by going to Settings>iCloud and turning Notes to On.
On your computer, without connecting your phone, go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and uncheck "Prevent…from syncing automatically" to re-enable automatic syncing.
That should do it.

Previous 4 months column need to be displayed based on prompt selection

Hi,
I have prompt named
JAN
FEB
DEC
and i have 12 columns from month1 to month 12(jan to dec)
when i select august from prompt i need to display 4 month previous of august
so my result should be
apr,may,jun,jul and august
if i select february then my result should be
jan and feb
basically i need to hide columns based on prompt selection
can i know how to do this

Hi
I think you have to go for Data level Security in this case.
You have to set that Session variable in the Group/User Permissions tab so that the Group members can see only those regions data only, even if they go for a
search.
Otherwise there is nothing to restrict the user in all the directions.
You have to apply that filter on all the tables in that Subject area.
Hope this will help you.
Guys, Please correct me if I am wrong
thanks

DM package prompt selection

Hi All
Can i create DM package : prompt selection with the selection criteria as a property for the perticular dimension for (2) pre-filtered dimension members based on a property. Here is the business scenario: we want to allow the users to copy data from trend data points to known data points BUT only allow this functionality for non-driver based accounts. So the idea is to have an indicator property on the account master data and used that property to help us drive the package.
Appreciate for any answers
Thanks
AK

Hi Nilanjan
our copy requirement has been changed.
We are copying from   known to anticipated. for the accounts which has property as account type as "INC" .
Copy from this data in the cube to (ACCTYPE is the property of the GL Account dimension)

1       INC       KNOWN            100

3       YY       KNOWN           300

Selection Set - Import Master data (prompt selection)

Hello Gurus,
When we run the package "Import Master data from NW infoobject" using data manager in BPC
we have options to select ,Infoobject ,write mode ,format ,transformation file and Dimension ,all of this we can use the answer prompt and provide the inputs using UJD_TEST_PACKAGE and automate it.
Now i want to also provide the inputs of "SET SELECTION" tab available on the package which are below ,so how to automate
Attribute ,Hierarchy ,Language ,Attribute List
in the prompt file in the UJD_TEST_PACKAGE
Thanks

Hi Peter,
You can trigger a BPC load from back end too. For that you need to create variants for the program UJD_TEST_PACKAGE or create a custom program depending on the requirement and then create variants( for example to load cost center master data, create a variant for 0COSTCENTER ) for it. The values for the variant{as already mentioned by Gersh} would be the text enclosed in square brackets after you run a Data Manager Package manually and then view details of the status.
Steps are:
1) Goto SE38
2) Enter the program UJD_TEST_PACKAGE or the custom package
3) Create a variant for the required master data/hierarchy load.
4) Enter the details of variant by using the details after you have manually run a data manager package.
You can test the package and include it in your pc's too.
Thanks,
Vinay

Setting prompt value based on another prompt selection

I have 3 prompts. The first one contains 'Y' and 'N'. The other 2 are for start-date and end-date so the report runs for this date range. I would like the start-date to be set to, say, '01/01/2009' if the user selects 'N' in the first prompt. If the user selects 'Y', the start-date will be set to, say, '02/01/2010'. These values are not dynamic though.
Please let me know how I can do this.
Thanks,
Bhusan

Sandeep,
Here is what I did.
1. The first prompt has 'Y' and 'N' that comes from a database table. So did not have to create these.
2. The second prompt - Used the following SQL for Show - select (case '@{LegacyVal}{N}' when 'N' then '01/01/2009' when 'Y' then '02/01/2010' end) from SubectArea."Registration Date". I kept "All Choices" checked. In the default to, I selected "All Choices".
Now when I test this and select any value from the first prompt, the second one does not change. It keeps the All Choices value always. What am I doing wrong here? I went through the earlier posts and tried to follow the steps, but looks like I am not doing the right way.
Thanks,
Bhusan

Measure to dynamically change based on prompt selection

Hi Experts,
My requirement is, if I select a business segment (from a drop down prompt), it has show one of measure in the report and if I change the prompt value, it has to show a different measure. i.e., It should work like a column selector, but my selection is based on Segment prompt value.
To still make it clear, assume, my report has measures KPI1, KPI2 KPI3. If I select Biz. Segment 1 from the prompt then only measure, KPI1 must appear in the report and so on.
Thanks for your help in advance

Year Prompt selection

Hi gurus,
I have a requirement that if I select year value from prompt then the report data should filter with selected year and next year of the selected year.
For Ex:
If i select year 2010 then the year values in the report output should be 2010,2011.
If i select year 2011 then the year values in the report output should be 2011,2012.
that means selected year and selected year+1 should be displayed in the report.
How can i achieve this, please help me out with your valuable solutions.
Thanks,
Tinku
Edited by: 934322 on Mar 6, 2013 1:06 AM

Hi,
1) create a presentation variable PRE_VAR.
2) create a prompt on the year column and assign the value to the presentation variable PRE_VAR.
3) create two filters in the report with OR condition like (Year = PRE_VAR OR Year = PRE_VAR + 1)
It may work for your requirement.

Display top,middile,bottom in prompt selection

Hi All,
i have one requirement like
I created a prompt values like top,middile,bottom
When I select top I want to display top 10 rows
if I select bottom display bottom 31st row to last row rows
and when I select middile display between 11th row to 30th row
I have total 30 rows in a column
i want case stement for the above requirement
can you please help on this issue
reg,
jel

@Deep, my thoughts too!
Okay, OP, assuming you really have more than 30 rows, here is a way to look at your data in a very simple format:
1) Create a Pivot Table in the usual manner with all your attributes, facts, etc.
2) In the design mode of the Request, select another column from the Selection Pane (it doesn’t matter which because the column will be a “dummy.”) Call the column "Pagination."
3) Click on the Edit Formula icon. Type the following SQL:
CASE WHEN RCOUNT(1) <11 THEN ‘1-10’
WHEN RCOUNT(1) <31 THEN ’11-30
WHEN RCOUNT(1) >30THEN ’31 - END'
END
4) Put the Pagination column in the Page section of the Pivot Table.
Now your report is divided into the 3 sections. If you want, you could break the report into more sections and if you insist on calling the sections "Top," "Middle," and "Bottom," you can replace the labels above with those words.
You don't even need a dashboard prompt at all!

Report to run only after prompt selection

Hi all,
we are using obiee 11.1.13, We have a required prompt (with property require user input checked), only after selecting the prompt the report should run, how do we make this work.
Thanks,
Sreekanth

Hi Sreekanth,
Don't create the prompt separately. Instead create the prompt while creating the report itself (Third tab in the Create report section) . Then add this report to dashboard. Make the default selection of the prompt "None" and "Enable User Input required". Try this and let me know.
Thanks,
Arul
