Table Data Preview tab: Missing Filter Textbox + Drill Down Data Discovery

1 - With Oracle based tables, when I click them and the table preview loads with all the tabs, on the Data tab there is a Preview entry box. I do not see the same with SQL Server or MySQL based connections. Is there a way to enable it? Am I not looking hard enough or is this function only available for Oracle based tables?
2 - I'm having a hard time trying to search for an answer to this next question (too many false positives based on the terms I am using). In other tools I have used (namely DB Visualizer), when previewing data in the Table's Data tab, a user may 'drill down' through values by right-clicking the field and applying a filter from the pop-up (drop-down with the field names, usual SQL comparison operators and a text entry box). I see SQL Developer has something similar with a filter list, but it only seems to prompt values in the buffer (in order, no less) and only uses the = operator (no LIKE). Finally, I notice that this value is not even present in the Filter text box (if you wanted to edit it further, add more, etc). As with my prior question, am I missing some usability/functionality setting/config or does this feature simply not exist in the way the other tool employed it? This feature is what keeps the other tool installed on my machine.

Hi Jed,
1) Sorry, the tool just has fewer bells and whistles for non-Oracle database connections. You might try adding this as a feature request on SQL Developer Exchange.
2) The normal SQL operators such as LIKE, <, and so on, are supported for the individual column filters, but there are some quirks:

Use Of Filter and Drill Down By Option in Context Menu

Hi,
We are on BI 7.0 patch 14.0
I have the Filter and Drill Down by option checked in the context menu Web item in WAD . However when I preview on the Web what happens is that the characteristic that I am using the filter and drill down on shows up horizontally as opposed to in a column.
For eg: If I have the following data initially
01/01/2007     250
02/01/2007    500.
I keep my cursor on 01/01/2007 and do a filter and drill down by 0calqtr then what I see now is
01/2007    02/2007 03/2007 04/2007
instead of
01/2007
02/2007
03/2007
04/2007.
Each CalQtr will have a key figure Value beside it in the horizontal mode.
This happens only when I pick the characteristic on the Graph. On the Web Item Analysis it works fine. Has anyone faced this issue before. This worked fine when it was WAD 3.5. This affects the presentation of the graph. For Objects that have not been migrated the result still shows fine.

Data controls tab missing

Hi all,
In my IDE 11.1.1.2.0 data control tab is missing very often. I need to reinstall IDE or dig in preferences.xml files, what not always helps. Does anybody know any easy way to restore missing data controls tab and also to make it missing not so often?
Thanks,
SNikiforov

I haven't encountered such a problem before - does this happen after some crash?
One thing that might be simpler is to delete just the system11.1.1.2.36.55.36\o.ide sub directory instead of the whole system directory.

Crystal Report 8.5 (Date/Time Tab Missing)

Hi All,
I have been using Crystal Reports Pro 8.5 (SP3) for a while now but I have come across one problem which I cannot understand.
All Date and Time fields within our SQL database are showning in Crystal as only Date fields even though they are definately Date Time field. If I explore the field data within Crystal it only shows me the Date field.
The interesting twist is my work colleague has got the same O/S Windows 7 and the exact same version of Crystal as me and he is able to see the Date/Time tab when formatting the field and Crystal identifies the field as a DateTime field.
Any help would be much appericated.
Thanks

Hello,
It's the ODBC driver you are using, or how ever you are connecting. They are likely using a newer version which CR see's the data/time field type and not convert it to a date field.
Or it could be one of your Report Options. 8.5 is 10 years old not so I don't recall what the reason for this was now.
Check your database driver and settings.
Thank you
Don

Drill down data repeats

I've made a drill down table in Microsoft Visual Studio and placed a drill down function via child group.
The issue I'm facing atm, after I expand, the data displayed in the rows is all spot on except the last row.
The data in the last row repeats after the row before it for some reason I cant figure out why.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Azkyz,
According to your description that you are experiencing the issue when you creating the drill down report in Microsoft Visual Studio, After expand the to display the details child group and found that all works fine expect the last row has been repeated
twice, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce your issue, the issue can be caused by the wrong way you have designed the drill down report. If you have create an new row under the row which display the values: [A],[B],[C],[Pass] and in the new
added row you using this expression to get the values, for example like this, you will always get the last row repeat:
=last(Fields!A.Value);
=last(Fields!B.Value);
If it is not, please try to redesigner the report step by step as below if possible:
Create parent group(Group1) for the Column(Retails…) and the column A is the children group(Goup2), structure like below, delete the blank row and the details column will not blank before toggle:
Right Click lick the Details under the Row Groups and select the “Group Properties”
Click the Visibility and select the hide, check the “Display can be toggled by this report item:” and in the drop down list select the Group1(Retais..)
Click the preview you will find all works fine.
Please provide the structure of the report and other details information(version of the designer..) to help use more effective to provide an solution, if your problem still exists.
Any problem, please feel free to ask
Regards
Vicky Liu
Spot on. Thanks for the help. It's all good(:

Dynamic filter with drill down in WAD

Hello Expert,
I am new in WAD and I have a requirement as below:
Data in Provider:
Mat1 Mat2   Plant   qty
M1     M2       P1      10
M1     M2       P2       20
Report layout in Bex as below:
Row:
Mat1
Column:
Qty
Free char:
Mat2
Initially I open the WAD report, data should filter on Plant = P1
Output:
Mat1 qty
M1     10
Now If I right click on Mat1 (select filter value and drill on Mat2 level) data get filter on Plant = P2, it show as below
Mat2 qty
M2    20
How I can achieve in WAD.
Thanks in advance!!!
Regards,
Abhishek

You can restrict the value in variable screen with default value plant as "P1" and added the query to template. Now you can executed the query in portal you drill down through context ment filter -> filter on value then select the value to "P2" and add it then click "OK" it will show only P2 value. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/44/33eb19e2173ec8e10000000a1553f6/content.htm https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/43/152fa54b315a38e10000000a422035/content.htm

Macro for same level of Drill down - Data in different grids

Dear Team
We have two characateristics of product - Product Line & Parent product Line.
I have created a planning book with two girds -
What I want is, in the first grid -
The Revised plan for the PL (Product Line) = Forecast Share of PL * Planned Production of the PPL (Parent product pine).
The Planned Production production of all PPLs together (Sum) is available in second gird. But how do I write a macro to fetch Planned production of each PPL (From second grid) and write a macro to calculate the logic in first grid?
E.g. in Above screen, the Planned Production of 60 is total Planned production of two PPLs (Indica =10 & Indigo = 50).
So If I want to achieve to calculate revised plan for Indica V2 & Indica Vista which has share of 40 & 60 % resp, in order to calculate the revised plan as 40% of 10 & 60% of 10 , how do I write a Macro to drill down second grid and fetch value of 10 for PPL = Indica?

Hi Anish,
There is "Series Names Destination:" parameter on Drill-Down (Insertion) Tab of Bubble chart component. By using that parameter you can retrieve selected serie. Via that value you can extract selected serie's selected value and drill down to required selection via some excel formulas like index-match or vlookup-hlookup. I hope that solves your issue.

Ahmet

Chart Drill Down Data

Hi guys,
I am trying to create a drill down capability for a column
chart in my application. I am using the HTTPService to get the data
in from an external XML file, but I am having problem getting in
the external data needed when the user selects a column. In simple
version,
1st level consisit of year(x axis) against amount(y axis)
2nd level,- when user clicks the column representing a year,
the column chart to be produced consist of Month(x-axis, i.e. Jan,
Feb, Mar, etc) against Month count(y-axis,) for the selected
year

Nothing to do with excel file, just the logic with combo box.

Hello all,
I have added a column to the Measures in Pivot table. But I dont c any data for that column in my actual report. When I clicked on that particular column SHOW DATA AS option is missing..what went wrong here? Please let me know.
Its kind of urgent. TIA

case statement--I want to check for a condition like desired column>= col1.I got an error when I have added "=" in case statement. So just wondering how can I achieve this situation?You can do that.Can you post your case when condition here with datatypes of columns you are using .
Pivot Table_-- Right now, Month(No ordering) was added to columns and underneath that Measure labels and Measures section has 3 columns.
In my actual report if if the user selects all the months in the dashboard as a prompt, need to show them in a order like
April May June
col1 col2 col3 c1 c2 c3 c1 c2 c3 etc for remaining months.
but it fails. i tried changing the Month as ascending and descending but couldn't achieve the desired format. any suggestions on this?Create a dummy column in answers.Write a case statement like case when month='Jan' then 1 when 'Feb' then 2 etc....Put this in excluded columns in Pivot table and sot on this.If you have month number already then iclude that columns and repeat the steps.

Upgrade 4.6C to ECC 6.0 - Key figures missing in Treasury drill down report

Hello experts,
We have upgraded from SAP version 4.6C to ECC 6.0. Due to this fact, we have converted all the TR-TM and TR-LO master data and transaccional data, using TPM_MIGRATION.
However, when we start the tests in the system, we have noticed that, in the transaction TRM3, in ECC 6.0 we do not have the same key figures that we had in 4.6C and, consequently, we had 3 reports in the 4.6C version that we do not have in ECC 6.0.
When we access the t-code TRM3 in 4.6C we have 16 folders (16 key figures), and when we access the same t-code in ECC 6.0 we only have 10 folders (10 key figures). In order to create the missing reports we need the key figure "Securities: For a giving period". This key figure exists in the 4.6C but does not exist in the ECC 6.0.
Do you have any idea about how can we transport the reports from the system 4.6C to ECC 6.0, or, alternatively, how can you create these reports in ECC 6.0?
Thanks and regards,
Filipe Neves

Hi,
DId you run SPAU check in your ECC6 this will be addressed there.

Only Dimension Table Values in Combo Box or Drill Down Selections

Hi All,
How to get only Dimension Table Values instead of Master Data Values in Combo Box or Drill Down Box list of values?
I am getting all the values in 0CALMONTH Combo Box where i need only infoproviders values.
In Entry List tab of Combo Box when i select 0CALMONTH its reading from its Master Data.Is there any option how there is Dimension table in Value help.
In Query, infoobject levels the filter values selection is set as infoprovider only.
Can anyone please let me know how to get only dimension table values when we use combo box.
Thanks & Regards
K.Srinivas Rao

Hi
Create one BI query with only one object in the output of the query. (In your case 0CALMONTH)
So now if when you run the query it will show values which are there in infoprovider. THen drag one form from output of this query in vc & create dropdown list on this.
Is this what you are looking for?

Passing Filter criteria parameters to drill-down reports

Hi,
I have a scenario, where my base report prompts a filter criteria for date range (from & to date) based on this criteria, I populate my base report with data's.
Suppose if i have a drill-down, can i make use of the filter criteria value selected in the base report and pass the same value to my next-level drill-down report as criteria.
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
My environment details are provided below.
BAM (11.1.1.3)
Report: Summary crosstab
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK

Hi pypawar,
Thanx for ur reply.
We are not using heirarchical drilling in our case, we are using another report for drill-down.
I will give some more background for this issue.
We have a scenario where we used the date filter for getting the from and to dates based on which we display our Master report (cross-tab).
Further, when drilling down from the master report to child report(which uses the same dataobject as master); we are not able to pass the dates input that were provided in master report as filter criteria.
While assigning parameters in the drill-down for the child report, we are not able to find an option to pass the date value selected in the master report to child report for filter criteria.
In an alternate approach, what we did to resolve the above issue was to pass the primary key fields of the data object while drill-down. But while passing primary keys, we realised there are cases where large number of values are getting passed as filter criteria to child reports and in some case it fails since there large number values getting passed as filter criteria.(in our case the chance of this value could be few 100's to 1000's). You can find details for this error in CACHEEXCEPTION during drill-down in BAM reports
Please let me know if this is possible. Also, let me know if there is any alternate approach available to achieve the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
DK
