Regarding i18n in OBIEE

Hi,
How to achieve internationalization in OBIEE.

Hi Amith,
Thanks for your reply.
I would like to confirm from what you replied. You asked to change the scenario for our senior most group.
For our scenario, Sr_Manager group has no restrictions. Hence, all data should be viewable to members of this group. We have now kept all members belonging to Sr_Manager group to this group only and no other group membership has been provided. This works fine and is giving expected results.
I would like to bring this to notice that, this problem was not coming initially when all the groups had been created. Any member from Sr_Manager, belonging to other lower groups could view all data as per his least restrictive group membership. But, I am not sure why this is failing now.
Could you pls suggest any cause of this problem?

  • Regarding Security in OBIEE

    Hi,
    We have 4 regions like UK, India, US, Japan.. when ever UK users logins to OBIEE the dashboard should get defaulted to UK region and user should see UK reports only.
    Similarly if a Japan, US users logins he should see reports corresponding to his region.
    At present we have a prompt where user select the region from the prompt . How to implement the security for this..
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Do the following steps and let me know if it was helpful:
    1. Create a separate table say table1 which will contain the USERID and REGION columns.
    Eg. User1 Region1
    User1 Region2 and so on
    2. Import the table in the physical layer. No need to create BM for it.Check in and save.
    3.Go to Manage - Variables and create a Session - Initialization Block with connection pool pointing to above table and query as select 'REGION1' ,REGION from table1 where USERID=(':USER')
    4. After the block is created go to Business Model and the table in which you want to implement the security.
    Table - Sources - Content tab - add the following in the where clause
    MAINTABLE.REGION IN (VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."REGION1"))
    Save the rpd. Log in and check if it is working.

  • Regarding Authorization in OBIEE

    Hello Experts,
    I am having trouble rather confusion with Authorization in OBIEE. We have configured Authorization using external table and it is working fine.
    Scenario is:
    We have hierarchy like Senior Managers-> Horizontal Head->ORG Head-> Team Leads
    I created their respective groups for each of them in RPD and in Presentations services.
    Senior Manager Group (SR_Manager) has NO restrictions, all other 3 groups(Horz_Group, ORGH_Group, TL_Groups) have data level security they can view data for Process_ID aligned under them. This we are maintaining in external table.
    My doubt comes in when a Senior Manager is member of other groups as well.
    Let say ABC is Senior Manager as well as Horizontal Head and as a Horizontal Head his access is restricted to 5 Process_IDs.
    My Doubt is shouldn’t ABC see all the data as he part of Senior Manager Group, Senior Manager Membership should supersede all other membership? As per documentation OBIEE should apply LEAST RESTRICTIVE PERMISSIONS?
    Kindly suggest if my doubt is valid.
    Thanks

  • Regarding Navigation in obiee 11g

    Hi All,
    i have recently migrated from obiee 10g to 11g.
    after migration the naviagation is not working.
    i have implemented navigation in 10 g in which on clicking one report it naviagate to another report also drilling down.
    but in 11g it is not happening.
    please help me to solve this problem.

    Please check the navigation is given properly or not.
    Just move to the criteria of the request and click required column by which you want to navigate. In the column properties of the request there is option naming INTERACTION in that option you will find "Add action link"-> BI content and then just select required request or the required dashboard page. it will navigate on it.

  • Doubt regarding joins in obiee

    hi gems...
    i have a doubt regarding BI analytics join.
    When i have imported all the tables from my schema in the repository, then it got imported with all the joins defined in the database.
    then i made several business models and create some reports.
    there i got some errors, which are mainly due to self join in the tables and more than one joins between two tables.
    my question is...are these two types of joins not supported in obiee???
    and if i want more than one join condition between two tables, then what can i do???
    thanks in advance...

    Hi User,
    OBIEE doesnot support self join. To avoid such circular joins ,make use of alias tables in the physical layer.The following is a list of the main reasons to create an alias table:
    To reuse an existing table more than once in your physical layer (without having to import it several times.
    To set up multiple alias tables, each with different keys, names, or joins.
    To help you design sophisticated star or snowflake structures in the business model layer. Alias tables are critical in the process of converting ER Schemas to Dimensional Schemas

  • Problem regarding Discoverer to OBIEE Migration

    Hi,
    I am trying Discoverer to OBIEE Migration  by using simple apps tables for practicing purpose facing some issue here , so i would like to get help from you all experts.
    The tables that used in .exx file are as follows:
            po_requisition_headers_all ,
            po_requisition_lines_all ,
            po_req_distributions_all ,
            po_distributions_all ,
            po_headers_all .
    I have created .eex in Discoverer it contains above tables, using OBIEE migration utility I have migrated .exx file into the .rpd  . Create a connection pool so physical table views the  data  in physical layer tables upto here i followed  the following link :
    Article: Migrating Oracle Discoverer Data to Oracle Business Intelligence 11g
    when .eex is migrated into .rpd facing following problems:
    1. The joins between the tables are not visible into the Physical Layer. So i need to create it manually or what?
    2. About Hierarchy,Complex folders Hierarchies are not migrated as above link so I need to create it manually or what?
    3.
        - Complex folders based on other complex folders are not migrated.
        - Summary folders are not migrated.
        -The system cannot migrate complex folders that are dimensions.
        -Hierarchies based on Complex Folders are not migrated.
    So what are the steps that I need to follow to overcome this all.
    Please reply me all or some points that you know or you already overcome this types of senario.
    Thanks

    Its the same as you'd get if you were creating the repository from scratch. Username: Administrator with no password.

    You don't need to do something. The repository SH_PartTwo.rpd have already the join. The tutorial gives only the differences with the SH_PartOne.rpd.

  • Regarding problems in OBIEE-BIP

    Hi
    We are finding problem in generating a XML Data file from OBIEE-BIP similar to the one generated by Bi Publisher Xml Data Template.
    The problem here(OBIEE-BIP) are:
    1. The queries executed in OBIEE-BIP can not be linked between, as we do it in the traditional
    XML Publisher.
    2. The XML data file generated here in OBIEE-BIP is flat. Data is not organised hierarchically in

    Designing a RTF template for displaying 'Repeated Master-child information' using the XML generated by OBIEE-BIP is very much less feasible. Because the hierarchical releation ship is not maintained in the OBIEE-BIP XML output.
    We want to know how these requirements can be achieved using OBIEE-BIP. Could you please reply as early as possible.
    Things which we have done
    - We designed RPD file with all necessary information and links between tables.
    - We designed OBIEE - BIP data model where we wrote the queries and get the XML Data information from
    OBIEE- BIP.
    - Here we are unable to create inter-dependant queries in OBIEE-BIP.
    Thanks
    Sachin Sethi

    To achieve what you'd like to do, you will need to use Data Templates as a data source. The data template can then reference the JDBC connection to the BI Server. Using data templates will allow you to solve both of your problems (non-flat result sets and linked queries).
    Using Answers as a data source or using SQL against the BI Server will always result in a flat XML structure getting generated.

  • Regarding ibots in obiee 11g

    Hi All,
    i have got one requirement from client.
    he wants the report in mail. for that i configured ibots.
    but they want conditional ibot .
    i have seen it but not able to understand since they want condition on the value of rows not on count of rows.
    please help me how to create it.
    Thankx
    Manoj

    Hi,
    First about the functionality of the conditional request: On the conditional request tab of the iBot you can read:
    Select a request which will trigger the current iBot. This request may be refined further by creating subquery filters. The iBot is considered triggered if the conditional request returns one or more rows
    This means that the delivery content of the iBot will only be sent when the conditional request returns one or more rows.
    Ex:-
    scheduling the iBot: you can set the recurrence of the iBot to Monthly. This means that every month the iBot will be run.
    So, what if you use a conditional request in your Monthly iBot? Every month it will first run the conditional request, when this conditional request will return rows, the iBot will be triggered and will sent the delivery content of the iBot, otherwise the delivery content won't be sent.
    To make it more clear: this doesn't mean that once the conditional request is met, the iBot will be run monthly forever, but every month the results of the conditional request will be checked.
    Hope it help's
    Thanks,
    Satya

  • Data Level Security in OBIEE  Enterprise Edition

    HI,
    would like to know how to implement row-level security in OBIEE Enterprise Edition
    Setting up the context right here, considering a hierarchy of an organization that goes up to 4 levels as below:
    VP >Senior manager>Manager>clerk
    Now, the situation is such that a manager should be able to view its subordinates data but not the data of any other team to which he does not have access. And also the manager should view only his regions data.Same goes for other hierarchies in the organization.
    Any pointers in this regards i.e OBIEE ADMIN TOOL: SECURITY AUTHENTICATION THROUGH EXTERNAL DATABASE would be of great help.
    Source system is SIEBEL CRM 7.8
    THanks
    Gutha

    Hi,
    I can help you for Authentication using BI Server.
    For teh same you can use admin tool then manage>security> users and Groups.
    You can create different groups as well as users accrording to you hierarchy and then provide privilages users or groups according to your need like particular user can view the data of particular level.
    When you create users then in the user page you can provide the filter conditions in filter tab and same as in groups.
