Tabbed report concept within single tab, possible?

Hello there,
I want build a report that has one fact spread across 12 month columns. I then want to allow the user to switch between 5 different facts and display each by itself in the same report. Instead of having 5 tabs, each with the identical report but with a different fact column to accomplish this, is it possible to have the fact columns as calculated fields and use a dashboard prompt to let the user select which fact to display?

that isn't a good option for me. There is a fact column for each month of the year so it would be cumbersome for the user to remove and then add 12 columns each time they want to see the different fact.
The best option for me might just be a tabular report. I was hoping i could do it within a single tab and drive the fact columns with a parameter in a dropdown-list.

I cannot open a new tab - when I restart firefox (or my computer), ctrl T does not work, and the "+" tab next to the single tab on my browser window does NOT open a second tab

Firefox3.6.18, running on WinXP (all the Microsoft patches), opens with a single tab. Clicking the Add Tab "+" or pressing CTRL T does not open a new tab, although I can open a new window. Also, when exiting from Firefox, my tab location is not saved.

Please disable or uninstall the Ask toolbar extension to solve your problem. It has a known incompatibility with Firefox. See [[Uninstalling add-ons]].

Alerters in cross tab report

Hi,
I have multiple crosstabs reports in a single tab each running on a different query.
1st cross tab
I created a crosstab report which has Account names,in the left column, dates in the top row header and account data in the data cell. This reports runs for historical dates example 01/2008-10/2008.
I have caculated the average for this report and named it hist avg.
                   months
acct names data for each month      hist avg
2nd cross tab
I am using a different query which has account names and a single value(Field Value) for each account name.   eg acct names    Field Value    Field Value* Hist Avg (Caculated)= target   histavg(forsort)
                 Acct 1                   3
                 Acct 2                   29
3rd cross tab
I created a crosstab report which has Account names,in the left column, dates in the top row header and account data in the data cell. This reports runs for current dates dates example 01/2009-04/2009.
I have caculated the average for this report and named it Current Avg.
         months
acct names data for each month      curent avg   Hist avg for sort target
ISSUE :
I need to put alerters on 3rd cross tab based on target calculated in 2nd cross tab.
All 3 cross tabs are mergered on acct names. and sorted according to desc hist avg
But when I put alerters it is not working. Cross tab 1 and 3 has same query but different date prompts.
I tried merging date dimensions. Now wht I have got is both cross tab displays histavg dates+ Current dates but data for only hist dates or current dates. I used hide empty coloums, So it doesn't show emplty coloums. and was able to bring hist avg in 3rd cross tab.
BUT ALERTERS ARE NOT WORKING.
Field value is a standalone derived table.
Is there are way to use alerters on acct data from one cross tab into anothers when both are running on different dates.????
Thank you in advance

Look at the Total Wizard. You should be able select the right options to have totals at different level of the data. Also give us an example what you want to achieve.

Totals in a cross tab report

I'm working with Crystal Reports XI. We have an existing report that was created using the Cross-tab report type.
There are 3 summary fields in the report:
- direct cost
- indirect cost
- Total ( direct cost + indirect cost)
Everything worked fine until now because both the direct cost and the indirect cost were being rounded to 2 decimal places. However, I have a new requirement to round the indirect cost total to a whole dollar ( no decimal places) before adding it to the direct cost total. This creates a problem for the third summary field because I'm only able to do:
- create a formula field of (direct cost + indirect cost rounded to a whole dollar)
- use that amount in the summary field
The problem is that then the indirect cost is being rounded for EACH record separately. But what I need to to calculate the Total indirect cost first and only after I have that total rounded to a whole dollar, add it to the direct cost total.
So basically, I would like for the third row to simply show the sum of the first row and the second row.
I can't take the current total ( direct cost + indirect cost) and then round this total because the rounding for the total direct cost needs to be done in a different way than the rounding for the indirect cost total.
Is that possible with the cross-tab report type? Is it possible to have 2 running totals in a cross tab report and then have a custom field in the report that rounds each using the appropriate rounding algorithm and then adds the two up.
thanks

Thank you for your suggestions. I kind of suspected that I wouldn't be able to use the current cross tab report to achieve this but since I've never worked with a cross tab report before I wanted to make sure this is the case before investing the time to do it some other way.
I will try using the manual cross tab report as you suggested.
Thanks again.

When closing any single tab exits firefox entirely why? just started happing

Just rebooted system (Windows PC) on return from holiday.
When closing ant tab instead of that single tab being closed, Firefox closes completely even though I have not touched the main "X" how can I reset or resolve this issue?

Courtesy '''jscher2000''' -
< (1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste "tabs" and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab preference to switch its value from true to false.
Press Ctrl+n to open a new tab, then Ctrl+w to close the tab. Helpful? >

Supressing tabs in multi tab report

I have a multi tab report that all the tabs are based off different queries. I want to suppress individual tabs and not have them export in Excel if the query returns no records.

Hi,
We can do this manually by selecting required report tabs (copy) and saving them in excel or to automate this process should work on SDK.

How to list the active Alerts used within a tab(report) within a Document

Hello
We have a number of tabs/reports within a single webi document. There are a couple of alerts within the webi document but only one is used within a given tab/report.
Is there an API around that will help me query the alerts that are enabled within each tab/report within a given document instance?
There is an IReportProcessingInfo class that is around for it looks like its not applicable for Webi documents.

Creating multiple tab reports using the same query in Web intelligence

Hi All,
I have created a Universe on a BW Query which has fields as below
AGE Depaatment Gender Grade
25       FIN                M            A
27       LES               F            A+
60       SWS            M             A++
Based on this data i have created a WEbi report which shows all of these data under one tab.
Now i create a new report tab in the same Webi Document by right cliicking the existing report and going to inset report and saving it.
Similarly i create two more new report tabs.
in each of these tabs i want to show data only for the concened departments.ie =1st report contains all the departments.
2nd report contains only finance data, third contains only Les data and fourth only SWs Data.
Is it possible to create this report using the same query?
Regards,
Raj.

You should use report filters, not query filters.
A query filter will affect the entire document. Every report tab that pulls data from that query will be impacted. If you start with a single report, by default it shows the data from the query. If you duplicate that report tab, then it's still attached to the first query. There are various ways to create report filters (input controls, quick filter, invoking the filter area from the toolbar) and a report filter impacts only blocks on that report tab. You can even create block filters by clicking on the block first, then creating your filter.
This is a fairly confusing bit for folks that are new to Web Intelligence.

Need a multi-level control break report displaying a cross-tab for each ...

I need a multi-level control break report that displays a cross-tab report for each
detail and subtotal. The individual cross-tabs are no problem. There are two issues:
1) How to get many cross-tabs (thousands) to appear in one report.
2) How to provide cross-tabs in-line on the multi-level subtotal lines.
Here is a concrete example.
Suppose the data base contains this table:
road (
id_number number, -- this is an artificial PK
city varchar2,
county varchar2,
state varchar2,
length number,
owner varchar2, -- roads may be owned by cities, counties, states, and others
surface_type varchar2 -- the surface type may be gravel, asphalt, concrete, and others
The table is populated with several million records that include every
length of road in a US city.
It is OK to suppose that all the attributes in all the records are not null.
Without the PK, there would be millions of duplicates,
which should all contribute to the summed lengths.
The report I need is like a control break report with a detail line for each
city together with subtotals for each county and state and
a grand total for the US at the end.
However, each detail and total line needs to be a cross-tab report
summing the length over the city, county, state or US
(whichever is called for at that location)
for each combination of owner and surface_type.
so the report would have the following structure:
a city cross-tab for the first city in county 1/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 1/state 1
a cross-tab for count 1
a city cross tab for the first city in county 2/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 2/state 1
a cross tab for state 1
a cross-tab for the US
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
This problem comes up because my client's legacy system,
which is being replaced,
already has such a report (in COBOL).
Thanks!!!
Steve
PS, I know one ugly way to do it. Namely, make a variable for each
possible combination of owner and surface. Then code an ordinary control
break report. However, I am looking for something better.

Hi Jenna_Fire,
According to your description, you have a matrix contains total for each group on each level. Now your requirement is, when you click on any number (data field or total), it will go to the detail report which returns all the detail information of the people
within the group scope. For example, if you click on the total of Active users in United States, it will return the detail information of Active users in New York and Texas. Right?
In this scenario, we should set the parameter (@Country, @State, @City) allow multiple values in both main and detail report. And in Default Value (@Country, @State, @City), query out all distinct values. In the textbox which contains
those total values, when set use these parameters to run the report, we only need to pass the parameters of parent groups. For example, if we click on the total of Active users in New York, we only need to pass Country, State, Status to detail report, and
in the detail report, the City parameter will use all distinct values (Default Values) because we don't pass the City parameter. We have tested this case with sample data in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create parameter Country, State, City and Status in both main report and detail report. Set both Available Value and Default Value get values from query (Create a dataset for each parameter, use "select distinct [column] from [table]" as query). Set allow
multiple values for parameter Country, State and City in both reports.
2. In corresponding textbox, pass appropriate parameters in go to report Action.
4. Filter data in detail report (in where clause or using filters).
5. Save and preview. It looks like below:

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How can I create a second sheet within a tab?

How can I create a second sheet within a tab? I have tried to add another table but it shows up on top of the existing table. I want to have two sheets or tables within one tab so I can further sort and categorize within a section. Is this possible? Thanks for all the help!
-Bridget Altman

You can insert a new table on the View Responses Tab with
Insert > Table
You can also insert a new sheet with a new table with
Insert > Sheet
You can drag and drop the table if it does overlap with another table. Just select the table you want to move and drag the top-left corner of the table to move it.
Hope this helps

How do I tell FiIrefox to only restore a sesson of more than one tab, and disregard the restore of a single tab session (ie. closing the browser)

I am on the beta channel of Firefox (currently 17.0, by the about window) and I cannot seem to find a way to limit the size of a browsing session that is automatically restored when re-opening the browser. In the past, Firefox would only save sessions of more than one tab when closing the entire application, and ask me about restoring said session when restarted. Now, Firefox seems to treat a session of just a single tab the same, which is a preference I dislike, given that I use a blank start page to great effect.
I am using a number of addons, including Tab Mix Plus, which specifically modifies tab behavior (although I have it configured to use Firefox's default session manager), but the problem persists even with all addons disabled.
I cannot seem to find an option in about:config to change this behavior. Is this a permanent change within Firefox, and if so, is there or will there be an option to specify the number of tabs that constitute a session that will be automatically saved?

Make sure that Firefox closes properly to prevent session restore from restoring a crashed session.
*"Hang at exit": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs
*"Firefox hangs when you quit it": https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firefox+hangs
Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.
