I've pressed a button here can you check all your page1 names?
Unless you have any other page in a dashboard whats the use of renaming page1?

Prompt Propagation Issue across dashboard pages in a dashboard

I have a issue of prompt propagation in a dashboard, that is the various dashboard page prompts use same presentation layer column then the prompts are taking the filter values filters on each other dashboard. Even if I try to change the scope of each dashboard prompt to only dashboard page only the value propagates to next dashboard page.
I cannot redesign the whole dashboard as it will need lot of effort , I have implemented a fix for now but I am searching for some java script code which I could invoke using OnPageLoad event to clear and reset all the page prompts to defalut values.
Can you guys let me know if you have any java script like this.

Can some one provide a alternative solution to this issue.
Once more I am writing down the issue:
On a dashboard is multiple dashboard pages multiple prompts, but if there are some prompts common between those dashboard pages which basically shares the same column formula, then these dashboard do propagate their values from one dashboard page to another.
Even setting the dashboard page prompt scope to page only cant stop this values propagation issue form one dashboard to another.
I know to fix it I will have to redesign the whole dashboard but that will take lot of time and effort starting from RPD to Reports.
is there some fix to fix it in the OBIEE Answers itself without touching the RPD. I cant try changing the column formula with case statement as then the case will flow in the report query and it will not use the index defined on the columns.
Please let me know if some one can throw some light on this.

Copy of a Dashboard Page

Hi,
Is it possible to make a copy of a dashboard page within a dashboard? Basically, I am trying to duplicate a page within the dashboard. Please let me know if someone has a solution to this problem.
Thanks

Hi
-> Using catalog manager, you first copy the page you want and Use Smart Rename (fix refs) give the trailing space for this page
-> Now paste the copied page in the same folder that you want to paste.
-> These two pages will appear like have same name ;) but there is white space at end of name for one page.
-> It's not possible to paste directly without changing the name, even if you try that will replace the original page which is no use.
Thanks & Regards

Updating Dashboard pages separately in OBIEE 11g

Hi guys,
I have a requirement to show multiple reports in one dashboard as tabs\pages like page1-for R1, page-2 for R2 (R!&R2 are reports) and these pages were created using different prompts for each report. but, the DB tables are the same.
My problem is:
if i run the report in dashboard on page-1, the prompts and tables are getting updated with the values on page-1 into page-2 also.
i tried by disabling the cache in nqsconfig, purging the cache in admintool, and setting a prefix to disable cache at report level, still no luck.
let me if anyone can help me.
thanks,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Select Page Options > Edit Dashboard to open the dashboard page in the Dashboard builder, then
Click the Prompt properties icon and select Scope > Page. Scope determines whether the prompt applies to the entire dashboard or just this page.
hope helps u..........

Dashboard pages within dashboard

Column Passing between dashboard pages using Column Format- Navigation

I've been put in a tough spot due to an error in BI Publisher which I can't seem to fix and won't be discussing in this post, thus I'm trying to find an OBIEE work around that adheres to the client's heuristics requirements. So OBIEE dev's more experienced than I, lend me your wisdom.
I have a logical layout with two descriptive dimensions, a time dimension and a singular fact table. An explanation of the dashboard pages, their requests, prompts and other objects is below:
Dim 1
- Dim1 Key
- Dim 1 Descr
Dim 2
- Dim 2 Key
- Dim 2 Descr
Dim Date
- Typical Date blah blah
Fact
- Measure 1 (Count of Dim 2 Key)
Dashboard Page 1
- Prompt 1
- Request 1
Request 1
- Columns
     - Dim 1 Descr
     - Measure 1
     - Dim 1 Key (Hidden)
- Filters
- Dim 1 Key is Prompted
- Dim Date is Prompted
- Formatting
     - Dim 1 Descr navigates to Dashboard Page 2
Prompt 1
- Dim Date.Date is Between
Dashboard Page 2
- Prompt 2
- BI Pub Report 1
BI Pub Report 1
- Parameter
     - p_key (takes in Dim 1 Key)
Prompt 2
- Dim 1 Descr is Equal
- Dim 1 Key is Equal - populates presentation var: p_key
So the functionality I'm expecting is that the user starts on Dashboard Page 1 selects a date range from Prompt 1. Selects a row and navigates to Dashboard Page 2 by clicking on a Dim 1 Descr 1 value, which in turn passes the Dim 1 Descr value and the Dim 1 Key value (which is hidden) to Dashboard Page 2.
On Dashboard Page 2, Prompt 2's Dim 1 Descr and Dim 1 Key become the values passed from Dashboard Page 1 and p_key is populated with the value which Prompt 2 Dim 1 Key becomes. Lastly BI Pub Report 1 gets p_key from OBIEE, and runs displaying what it’s supposed to.
Currently everything works, except the passing of Dim 1 Key from Dashboard Page 1 to Dashboard Page 2. The question is, firstly, is it possible to pass Dim 1 Key without it being visible on Request 1 or without using Dim 1 Key as the point of navigation to Dashboard Page 2. If so, what of my above mentioned setup is incorrect? My guess is that I need Dim 1 Key in Prompt 1, but the client is adamant that I leave Prompt 1 alone, so any other options would be great.
I also know that the above is possible with GoUrl or PortalPath but since on the actual request there are multiple Navigation Target options, I'd like to avoid having to resort to GoUrl or PortalPath, but if this is the only method, how can multiple options be given using GoUrl or PortalPath?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Karthick,
Thanks for the updated info. I tried what you suggested and unfortunately still no value passed. It seems hidden via OBIEE format options, hidden via CSS or unhidden the value is only passed if the navigation is set up on that particular field. So if I have two fields in the report and I want to click on Field 1 and pass Field 2, Field 2 will not be passed. I am going to try this on a up to date environment and see if it works, since the client is using a slightly outdated version of OBIEE.
Thanks for the suggestions so far,
Matt

Reg: Dashboard page Name not getting displayed.

Hi
I have created a dashboard Dashboard1 and it has 5 different pages
pg1 thru pg5. I have 5 users USER1,USER2.USER3,USER4 and USER5.
I have assigned each page to a user and all the users have access to Dashboard1
i.e
USER1 pg1 of Dashboard1
USER2 pg2 of Dashboard1
USER3 pg3 of Dashboard1
USER4 pg4 of Dashboard1
USER5 pg5 of Dashboard1
The problem is name of the pages is not displayed once the dashboard is accessed after log on..The report attached to that page is displaying data, but page name on the tab is blank...
Could anybody help me with this information pls..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
When a single page is placed on the Dashboard it will not show the page name as it won't show any tab on the Dashboard. This is happening by default.
This case applies to your scenario as you restricting those pages among the users.
To just check, give the permissions to the user1 to view 2 dashboard pages instead of 1. Then you can able to see the page names on the tabs as 2 pages are on the Dashboard for that user.
I am also not aware of displaying the Page name when there is a single page on the dashboard...:(

Dynamic dashboard page name in obiee 10g

Hi All,
Can we set the dynamic dashboard page name in obiee 10g.
if yes, please give me details about this.
thanx & regards
Prashant

Prashant,
You can't have the page name change dynamically. The only option left is to create duplicate pages with different names and apply object level security based on different grps.

Long dashboard page names

Hello.
I have a problem with the name of a dashboard pages.
Names are very large and need to divide them by more than one line.
Example:
"Cost Price Maintenance"
to
"Cost Price
Maintenance"
I tried to follow the instructions found in this blog:
http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2010/07/obiee-handling-long-dashboard-page.html
but did not result because the obtained result was:
"Cost Price< >Maintenance"
then I replaced the < > for [br \] but did not result because, although the line is divided into two,
the [br \] appears in the sentence
"Cost Price[br\]
Maintenance"
Do you have any solution to this problem?
OBIEE version is 10.1.3.4.2
Note: I used < > and not the correct notation in order to illustrate the problem in this post
Thanks

OBIEE 11g: Subscribe to Agents through Dashboard page?

Hi all,
I have created a set of agents which would deliver personalized content to subscribing users based on their OBIEE username. The agents work great, however I am stuck at finding a simpler way to allow various users to subscribe to said agents.
The standard subscription method is cumbersome: Go to Catalog, browse to where agents are, Click More, select Subscribe. I don't want my users wandering around through a pretty thick catalog only to subscribe to an agent. Chances are they'll wander off, mess up, fail to subscribe or not even bother to try in the first place. What I would rather do is have them go to a dashboard and click on something to subscribe directly, without caring where the agents are located.
A dodgy workaround I have implemented is to put up a link to an URL which is the catalog location of the agents. Users would click on that link and they will see the list of agents, allowing them to subscribe/unsubscribe. Still, I would like to simplify this further, if possible. Any ideas?

Hi All,

It’s not working – Any Ideas….

OBIEE 11g How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.

How to pass variable from one prompt to another prompt in dashboard page.
I have two prompt in dashboard page as below.
Reporttype
prompt: values(Accounting, Operational) Note: values stored as
presentation variable and they are not coming from table.
Date prompt values (Account_date, Operation_date)
Note:values are coming from dim_date table.
Now the task is When user select First
Prompt value “Accounting” Then in the
second prompt should display only Accounting_dates , if user select “operational”
and it should display only operation_dates in second prompt.
In order to solve this issue I made the
first prompt “Reporttype” values(Accounting, Operational) as presentation
values (custom specific values) and default presentation value is accounting.
In second prompt Date are coming from
dim_date table and I selected Sql results as shown below.
SELECT case when '@{Reporttype}'='Accounting'
then "Dates (Receipts)"."Acct Year"
else "Dates (Receipts)"."Ops
Year" End FROM "Receipts"
Issue: Presentation variable value is not
changing in sql when user select “operation” and second prompt always shows
acct year in second prompt.
For testing pupose I kept this presentation
variable in text object of dashboard and values are changing there, but not in
second prompt sql.
Please suggest the solution.

You will want to use the MoveClipLoader class (using its loadClip() and addListener() methods) rather than loadMovie so that you can wait for the file to load before you try to access anything in it. You can create an empty movieclip to load the swf into, and in that way the loaded file can be targeted using the empty movieclip instance name.

How to create hyperlink on a Dashboard page

Hi,
I need to have some text on a Dashboard Page which will be hyperlinked to some request. I am not seeing any option to do that in OBIEE, when i had used Link or Image option i am not able to design the dashboard page as i am not able to format the text and also the alignment, is there any other way i can do that, i just want text that will be hyperlinked and formatted in a way that is appealing. I do not need any columns for any tables.
Thanks,
Amit

try this using portalpath instead of GoUrl,
Create a narrative view with some code like below, which navigate to the dashboard you are refering..
[a href=saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/Sample/MainDB&page=Index> Main Page </a]
where portalpath refers to path of the dashboard, and page refers to the page name.
In narrative view you enhance the visuality as you want using html...
Thanks,
Vino

How Do I pass a filter to a dashboard page?

Hi,
I'm working on Siebel Analytics 7.8.2. I have a dashboard with 2 pages. The requirement is to enable the user to be able to click/ drill from a metric result to another page. The navigation should also send a filter based on Organization (say Organization = 'ABC') to the next page. The destination page already has a dashboard prompt based on the Org column. All the reports displayed on the destination page have the Org column 'filtered'.
I've read in the PDF that there is a way of passing the filters though the Dashboard URL. I'm using the following in the Custom Data format for the source metric to drill down to the next page:
href="saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/CRMantra/_Portal/3COM%20-%20Dashboard%20-%20Key%20Business%20Metrics&Page=Pipeline%20Analysis&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2="-%20Employee%20Organization"."Employee%20Parent%20Organization%20Name"&P3=1+"North%20America"">"@"</a>
When I click on the hyperlink it does navigate me to the destination page but the filters are not applied. If I change the above URL to use 'Go' instead of 'Dashboard'
href="saw.dll?Go&PortalPath=/shared/CRMantra/_Portal/3COM%20-%20Dashboard%20-%20Key%20Business%20Metrics&Page=Pipeline%20Analysis&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2="-%20Employee%20Organization"."Employee%20Parent%20Organization%20Name"&P3=1+"North%20America"">"@"</a>
I get the some error to the effect 'cab;t do this cause it does not have any columns'.
For the parameters P2 & P3 I've tried giving both the Presentation Layer table/ column as well as Business Layer table/ column. I'd really appreicate if someone could help me with this.
Thanks a ton!

Hi Naveen,
I already have the dashboard prompt configured (scope Dashboard) and set in the destination page. The source page has no prompts and the requirement was to be able to click from the source dashboard (the one without any prompts) to the destination (the one with the Org Prompt) and pass the value of an Org to the destination page.
I was able to do that with the following URL
saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/CRMantra/_Portal/3COM%20-%20Dashboard%20-%20Key%20Business%20Metrics&Page=Pipeline%20Analysis&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=Employee.EmpParOrgName&P3=1+"North+America"">"@"</a>
Earlier I was using this URL
*"saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/CRMantra/_Portal/3COM%20-%20Dashboard%20-%20Key%20Business%20Metrics&Page=Pipeline%20Analysis&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2="-%20Employee%20Organization"."Employee%20Parent%20Organization%20Name"&P3=1+"North%20America"">"@"</a>*
The problem that I found was that it was not recognizing the table/ column names with the spaces. I tried with just space; with %20 to encode the white space and even '+' to encode space but it did not work. I then changed the name of the presentation table/ column to have no white spaces in the name and then it started passing the value.
However, even with the value as per the PDF we need to encode a white space with %20. But this was actually passing the value 'North%20America' instead of 'North America'. After changing the %20 to '+' the correct value of 'North America' started getting passed.
However, I now have a differnet problem. The PDF says that if you want to show the actual value of the column inside the link use "@". However, for me using "@" or @ or '@' shows the letter @ and not the actual column value.
Again I'm using the <a href> html tag to define the URL.
Any help on this is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Kunal
