Restricting the Prompt Values based on Fact table data

Hi,
We need dashboard prompts in OBIEE reports that will fetch data from dimension tables. Our all dimensions are conformed dimension having joined with multiple fact tables.
Because prompts are showing data from dimension table, it is showing all dimension data and few data might not present in the particular fact table that we have used in the report.
For Example:
We have one Calendar dimension table that has 20 years data that means all dates. Now we have two fact tables Fact1 and Fact2.
In Fact1 we have records related to only 2007 Years data. And In Fact2 We have 2008 years data.
Now We are creating two separate reports in two separate page in one dashboard where the prompt is same. That is Calendar date prompt.
So In report1, The prompt will be Calendare and Result will be from Fact1. But as the calendar prompt from Calendar dimension, it showing all 20 years data though only 2007 years data is valie.
Similarly for Report2, It is showing all calendar dates in the prompt where Fact2 is having 2008 year data.
I want to show only 2007 years dates in the prompt for Report1 and 2008 years dates for Report2. That means I want to restrict prompt values based on the fact.
It will be great if someone can suggest on this.
Regards,
SS

Hi, I have a similar problem.
I have two dimensions: time and customer.
The two dimensions are joined into two Fact Table (Order, Forecast).
I created a dashboard prompt with two selections: the first is the Year (time dimension) and the second is the Region (customer dimension) with the option "cosntraint."
When I select a Year, not all Regions are shown, but only those that are present in one of two fact table for the year chosen. Which fact table?
What criteria will limit the values of the Region?
Thanks

How to restrict the duplicate values in lov column of VO based Adv Table

Hi Gurus,
I want to restrict the duplicate values at lov which is a colunm in an Adv Table.
If user enters duplicate values then first it should show an error msg that Duplicate values have been entered.
After the duplicate values have been removed, then the user can save all the values in the table.
My Adv Table is based on a VO.
The link how to restrict the duplicate values at form level
talks about Adv Table based on a EoVO, which doesnot work in my case.
My Approach,
I am iterating through RowSetIterator and committing through PROCEDURE.
I am able to avoid duplicate entry through a function checkRespId. (given below)
Below code is for iterating and committing.
public void saveline(String reqid,String userid)
System.out.println("RequestId/saveline"+reqid);
System.out.println("UserId/saveline"+userid);
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)getRespLineVO1();
RespLineVORowImpl row = null;
int fetchedRowCount = vo.getFetchedRowCount();
RowSetIterator deleteIter = vo.createRowSetIterator("deleteIter");
if (fetchedRowCount > 0)
deleteIter.setRangeStart(0);
deleteIter.setRangeSize(fetchedRowCount);
for (int i = 0; i < fetchedRowCount; i++)
System.out.println("Inside the for LOOP");
row = (RespLineVORowImpl)deleteIter.getRowAtRangeIndex(i);
String respoidid = row.getAttribute("ResponsibilityId")+"";
String respname = row.getAttribute("ResponsibilityName")+"";
String stdate = row.getAttribute("StartDate")+"";
String enddate = row.getAttribute("EndDate")+"";
String linestatus ="A";
if(userid!=null)
if(!(respoidid.equals("null")) && respoidid!=null)
String checkingrespid=null;
checkingrespid = checkRespId(userid,respoidid);+contains no if not duplicate and yes if its duplicate+
System.out.println("checkingrespid for Resp with ID :"+respoidid+"exists or not "+checkingrespid);
if(checkingrespid.equals("No"))
String message, result = null;
Connection txn = getOADBTransaction().getJdbcConnection();
try
calling PROC ...
catch(Exception e)
message = "Error in Inserting into line" + e;
throw new OAException(message, OAException.ERROR);
else
throw new OAException("You have entered duplicate no. of values", OAException.ERROR);
else
System.out.println("respoidid is null");
break;
deleteIter.closeRowSetIterator();
public String checkRespId(String userid,String respoidid)
String createRow="No";
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("CheckRespVO1");
if (vo != null)
vo.setWhereClauseParams(null);
vo.setWhereClauseParam(0, userid);
vo.setWhereClauseParam(1, respoidid);
vo.executeQuery();
System.out.println("ROW COUNT IS "+vo.getRowCount());
if(vo.getRowCount()>0)
createRow="Yes";
else
createRow="No";
return createRow;
Problem:
I remove the duplicate entries and click on save and get this error.
Unable to perform transaction on the record. \nCause: The record contains stale data. The record has been modified by another user.
\nAction: Cancel the transaction and re-query the record to get the new data.

How to restrict the dropdown values in Att/abs type in Record Working Time

Hello experts,
We are implementing ESS business package. In the Record Working time, within the Weekly View and Daily View tabs, there is a column Att/abs.type which has several drop down values - like: floating value, Funeral Leave, Military Reserve, Regular Attendance, etc. Our requirement is to restrict the dropdown values by means of showing only one of these values (say: Regular Attendance) and others should not be shown. How do we achieve this?
Thanks
Vicky R.

Hi Siddarth,
Thanks for the info. By the way, this table info is not mentioned in the Business Package documentation. Which documentation are you referring to?
Thanks

User wants to get the cumulative values based on his input.

Hi
I am working one FI Report; the out put values are Cumulative values for Current, Previous years. I developed and it fetches the data last 3 years Cumulative years data without any input FYMonth based on SAPexits and varible offsets. But user wants to put Fiscal year Month as input. So he wants get the cumulative values based on his input. For example, If his input SEP'2005(062005), Then Query gives the Output Cumulative Value (I.e., Sum of Total values of Form APR'2005 to SEP'2005)
Please provide the solution
Thanks
Mannev

Mannev,
You can try doing this.
1. If the user input is fiscal period(2005006) , you can create a customer exit variable which will take the user value (i_step =2), and change the variable value to 20005001. (this is a simple code where tye last 2 digits are replaced by 01).
if the user is entering calmonth, you can use FM - DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT, to convert the month to fiscal period.
2. You can create a rkf with restrictions on time char based on the customer exit variable and the user entered variable.

How to use the prompt value in the report column

Hi
I have a report prompt column which is 'Adj Type' which holds values 10,20,30 and when user selects Adj Type = 10 then this value should be passed to report column.
For Eg. Column 1 value is 10 and this should multiple with prompt value and the output should be 10* 10.
Any thoughts how to capture the prompt values in report column for calculation.

hi hsekar,
1) Declare a presentation variable in prompt under the Set Variable section -->Presentation Variable -->P_var
2) In Fx Table_name.Your_column * @{P_Var}
@{P_var}{20} ( 20 is default value it will override when a user selects value in prompt

What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server?

Hello MS,
I would like to export all tables from Oracle 11.2 to MS SQL Server 2012 R1.
Using the tool "Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant v6.0 for Oracle" did not work for me because there are too many warnings and errors regarding the schema creation (MS cannot know it because they are not the schema designer). My idea is
to leave/skip the schema creation to the application designer/supplier and instead concentrate on the Oracle data export and MS SQL data import.
What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server quickly?
Is it:
- the „MS SQL Import and Export Data“ Tool
- the “MS SQL Integration Services” Tool
- not Oracle dump *.dmp format because it is a propritery binary format
- flat file *.csv (delimited format)
Thanks!

Hi lingodingo,
If you want to directly export all tables from Oracle database to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard. Because you just need to follow the wizard with GUI, this is the easiest way.
If you want to make some modification for the tables‘ data before loading to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Integration Services package. For more details, please refer to the following similar thread:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/38b2bed2-9d4e-48d4-a33f-1d9eed1c062d/flat-file-to-sql-server?forum=sqldatamining

Hi All,
Flat file Extracion:
How to set the Default values for Info Objects in Data Selection Tab for Info Package
ex: Fiscal Year Variant Info Object having values 'K4' 'Y2' etc in Flat file
Initially default value(not constant) for this info Object value should be 'K4' in Info Package
If I set data selection value for this info object K4 it will retreive records with this selection only? how to handle
Rgds,

Hi,
suppose as your ex. if you are having fiscalyear variant in the dataselection tab then specify K4 in the from column, again the ficalyearvariant row and click on insert duplicate row at the bottom . you will get another row . In that enter Y2 in the from column. now you can extract K4, y2 values .

Report based on fact tables that don't have the same dimensionality

Hi all
I want to combine in the same report different measures from different fact tables that doesn't have the same dimensionality,for example:
measure 1 linked to dimensions : time geography and product
measure 2 linked to dimensions : time and geography
Currenctly when I create a report like:
time----gepgraphy---product------measure 1-----measure 2 I don't have any data for measure2 because it's not linked to the product dimension.
The exact report is year---store name---product area name----- store sales-----number of visitors : the number of vistors doesn't have any relation with the product dimension.
Is there a way to create this kind of report??
Regards

Don't take this the wrong way guys, but I feel compelled to say this before the answers start coming in:
This issue had been discussed already many times. Stijn, John, Kishore etc. have all answered this question for the one or the other user. This forum has a search functionality for a reason. To first look for information and then ask your question. Why wait - potentially - a couple of hours for an answer that's one search away?
Seriously people. It's not like forums magically appeared in 2k7...they've been around for quite a while now and netiquette and common sense with regards to posting should become normal.
