Hi friend,
you can assing a number to every month, it means, jan -> 1 feb -> 2 mar -> 3... dec -> 12, for example creating a logical column in BMML. Then you can filter data comparing numbers instead of comparing strings. Then, in a report, you can show the descriptions (jan 10, apr 10, jul 10, oct 10) but the filter will be over the numbers of months.
Good luck.

Calculated quarter columns on the months in prompt

Hello All,
In my financial reporting studio report I have 2 prompts for selecting months relating to scenario. one is for selecting months for Actuals and another is selecting months for budget.
The user can select 12 months from Actuals or budget.
for example user can select Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr,May for Actuals and Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec for Budget.
the issue is we have to create Quarter columns on the basis of prompts. the Q1 should be the sum of selected Jan, Feb & Mar (Actual Selected /maybe budget also some times)
Q2 will be sum of Apr,May (Actuals),Jun (Budget)
Q3 will be sum of Jun, Jul & Aug (Budget selected in the prompt)
Q4 will be sum of Oct,Nov,Dec (Budget selected in the prompt)
The sum of quarters should be based on the prompts which are using for scenario.
can any please help me in this.. thank you ALL

how is the data displayed? if you always have 12 columns, you could just add the 3 months for each quarter ignoring the scenario.

Dashboard filtering using Variable prompts

Hi,
I am having a dashboard with 2 pages(Monthly and Quarterly). My requirement is:
Create a variable prompts(Monthly,Weekly) in separate page.
When i select radio button 'Monthly' only the sections related to monthly should be displayed and "Quarterly" sections to be hidden also vice versa.
I need both of them in a single page and allow me to display based on selection.
I am new to OBIEE 11g and this is my first enhancement. Plz help me.
Thanks in Advance

Avinash

Hi,
you can create a section filter which will display the value based on selection.
for section filter, create two seperate reports which will have only one column and give the filter as 'Month', 'Week' in each report.
when you are creating the section filter then use these two reports as condition ie. rowcount>0. so whenever month and week gets selected it will display the result.

Create a between filter using months names ...

Hi, I need to create a dashboard filter using month names in a between statement for examples:
From: January - To August
the problem is when I do this the Obiee server made a filter by alphabetic order, so for the example the result will be nothing (because A is prior to J)...
How can I solve this
(My boss is in my neck and I have a family to feed...)
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
mma as given you the solution which would be helpful.
I can say workaround for this,what ever date parameter you want to convert to january....december
you can make an alias of that column as said above and write the filter on that date with a sql statement example as follows
select to_char(sysdate,'FMmonth') from dual
same way you take your requirement as select to_char(*your_date_column*,'FMmonth') from your_table
Hope it helps,
Best Wishes,
Kranthi.

TS3999 can't see times of my icloud calendar events when using month view...

I use a macbook pro and like to view my icloud calendar using month view so I can see the whole month at a glance.
It used to be that when I viewed my calendar using Google Chrome, the time of each event would show next to the event name. Recently, this changed and now the month view just shows the events, not the times. This is also true for my macbook ical - month view only shows events, no times.
Is there an option to allow the times to show when using month view? I looked in preferences and didn't see one.
Also, as a side note, I tested in Firefox and the times DO show when using month view. I just prefer using my ical or chrome, so would love to figure out a way to fix there.
thanks for any help!

I was able to see some posts after I made mine and I found the answer to the macbook ical issue.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15378887#15378887
would still love any input on the google chrome issue. If anyone knows how to show event times in chrome, I'd love to hear how!
thanks.

I created a Pages document inserting 2 columns using 1) Inspector 2) Layout 3) columns. How do I decrease the height of the column. Have tried to use cursor and drag down the top border, but that does not reset the top border.

I created a Pages document inserting 2 columns using 1) Inspector 2) Layout 3) columns. How do I decrease the height of the column. Have tried to use the cursor and drag down the top border, but that does not reset/decrease the top border.

Set your columns back to one for the moment. In layout mode, insert a Text box. Place it in the upper left corner of your document, and drag down and right to the size of the container for your two columns. Click inside the Text Box, and now bump up your columns to 2. Your two columns are now contained in this resizable Text Box.

How to get the Row and Column values in ALV (without using Objects)

Hi All,
I need to get the Row / Column when double click is used in ALV, I can use the double click event for this. However, I do not want to use the Object Oriented ALV. I want to implement the same functionality using general (using functions) ALV.
Is there any way to get the row / column values for a Generia (non-OOPs) ALV report.
Please help.
Thanks,
Vishal.

Hello,
The only think you have to do is to get the index where the user clicked, and then read the internal table you sent to the alv
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_callback_program       = 'prg_name'
      i_callback_pf_status_set = 'SET_PF_STATUS'
      i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND' " this is to the click event!!
      i_callback_top_of_page   = 'TOP_OF_PAGE'
      is_layout                = alv_layout
      it_fieldcat              = alv_fieldcat
      i_save                   = 'A'
      it_events                = alv_events[]
    TABLES
      t_outtab                 = i_totmez. ---> TOUR IT.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
" then....
FORM user_commandUSING r_ucomm     TYPE sy-ucomm
                                ls_selfield TYPE slis_selfield.
" r_ucomm -> HAS THE STATUS
" ls_selfield-tabindex -> HAS THE SELECTED INDEX
" THEN READ THE INTERNAL TABLE
" HERE YOU WILL HAVE THE SELECTED ROW
READ TABLE i_totmez INDEX ls_selfield-tabindex.
ENDFORM.

How to create Implicit Fact column ?and how to use it ?

Hi all,
How to create Implicit Fact column ?
and how to use it ?
Thanks in advance

When you create a request with only dimension columns, the Oracle BI engine has to choose a fact table to join the dimensions to each other. If you have multiple fact tables in your BMM layer, the Oracle BI engine will use the most economical fact table, depending on the number of dimensions of the fact table.
In some cases you do not want to use this fact table, but you want to force the Oracle BI engine to use the fact table you want.
In that case you should create a fact (or select an existing fact) of the fact table you want to use for the dimension only query. In the presentation catalog of the subject area you should select this fact as the implicit fact. This fact will always be used in the query, but it won't be visible in your report. An example of an implicit fact is the count of the primary key (id) of the fact table.

Sort column by without case sensitive using Comparator interface

Hello,
When i sorted my values of a column in a table it was showing all sorted upper case letters at top rows and all sorted lower case letters on bottom. So i would like to sort values without case sensitive order. Like. A, a, B, b, C, c....
I am using Collection class to sort vector that contains the values of a column as an object and using Comparator interface to sort the values of a column in either ascending and descending order. It facilitates to compare two objects like.
<class> Collections.sort(<Vector contains values of column to be sort>, <Comparator interface>);
and in interface it compares two objects ((Comparable) object).compareTo(object);
Now Let's suppose i have three values say Z, A, a to sort then this interface sorted in ascending order like A, Z, a
but the accepted was A, a, Z. So how can i get this sequence. I would like to sort the values of a column without case sensitive manner.
Thanks

Hi Karol,
Yes the prompt is working fine when i put this following method under the "Button" Component.
APPLICATION.openPromptDialog(800, 600);
Somehow the when i use the "Input Field" and use the "Button" Component and write this following logic inside it i don't see the prompt is not taking the values what i am entering in input field i assume that its issue with data-source not getting refreshed.
Variable=INPUTFIELD_1.getValue();
APPLICATION.setVariableValue("PercentageIncrease",Variable);
Thanks,

How do I calculate IRR using months, not years

When using the IRR funtion in Numbers for Mac (internal rate of return), how do I let the formula know that my time period is months and not years? In the Excel function, there is an extra arugment in the function that allows you to select the dates and the cash flow for that date. In the Numbers version, you can only select the cash flows, there is no variable for the dates. I believe that the function in Numbers automatically assumes you are using years when in fact my cash flows are represented in months (monthly rent from properties). The function description in Numbers clearly states that you can use months so I must be missing something. The examples that Numbers provides for using the IRR function all assume the cash flows are in years.
For non-finance people, the time frame makes an enourmous difference. If you invest $1.00 with me today and a year from now I give you back $2.00, your return on investment is 100% (you doubled your money) and your IRR is 100% because it took exactly 1 year. But if I wait five years to give you the $2.00, the return on investment is still 100% (still doubled your money) but the IRR is 20% because it took five years. Not as good a deal for you and the IRR represents that. In these scenarios, I can calcullate the IRR using Numbers. But what if I give you the money back after 6 months? Or after 18 months? Or give you .25 cents each month for 8 months? The IRR will be MUCH different. How do I tell Numbers my intervals are not in years?
Thanks for any help! For two years I've been doing all my spreadsheets in Numbers and then having to calculate the resulting IRR in Excel!! Yuck.

dB,
IRR works identically in Numbers and in Office. If that's not the function you want, that's another issue. Here's your IRR calculation in Office (LibreOffice):
And here it is in Numbers:
If your payment series is in uniform time periods, why would you use anything besides IRR?
