Thout Conditionally Hiding a column

Hi Experts,
I am using OBIEE 11.1.1.5. I have a requirement that i have a report with 3 columns column1, column2 and column3. If Value='Value1' i have to Hide column1 and column2. If Value='Value2' HIde column2. If Value='Value3' Hide column1, column2 and column3. Is it possible without creating additional reports.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Couple of questions:
1. Are you driving 'Value 1'/'Value 2' from a dashboard prompt or based on the values of a column 'value'?
2. Does your report need to display 3 columns initially and then hide the columns based value1/value2?
Did you think of a view selector option?
Above details help understand the requirement more clearly so that appropriate solution can be suggested.
Thanks,
Rajesh Gurram

Changing the Column Header and Hiding the Column dynamically???

Hi friends..
I'm new to OBIEE field. I'm working in a OBIEE project that requires to dynamically change the column header, and dynamically hide the column depending on the prompt value.
I know we can dynamically change the table header using the presentation variable but I couldn't do that same thing with column header.
I searched some forums that suggest to use java script for this purpose but I'm not able to do the same also. If anyone had same issue before please help.

toony, I'm not sure it's possible to do all that you want exactly the way you want, but here are some ideas you can pursue.
To dynamically change column headers without javascript, check this blog out...
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dynamic-column-headers-using-presentation-variables-sets-and-conditional-formatting/
As far as dynamically hiding a column, I don't think you can do this, but since you don't provide any details on how the PV is supposed to hide a column based on the value, are you talking about hiding a column for one PV value and another (different) column for a different PV value? Or are you talking about hiding one column when a PV has certain values and displaying it when the PV has a different set of values?
I have managed to create both scenarios via a work-around, but the procedures require some writing so I don't want to put both. Please detail how you want your PV to "hide" a column or columns.
P.S. I don't think column selectors will do the trick for you. Basically column selectors work like this: Say you have a report using Sales Region ID, Region Name, and Sales. Now let's say you want the user to choose if he/she wants to see annual sales, or quarter sales or weekly sales, etc. The column selector view would allow you to put the various columns (Year Sales, Quarter Sales, Weekly Sales) as an option the user can select. Once selected, the sales figure will change for the time period selected. For an example of how this is done, check out the section in this "Oracle by Example" link.
Waited too long to publish this... Madan beat me to it, so there is some overlap here...

How would one go about conditionally showing a column in the rows section of a pivot table if all values or null?

Hiding Table Columns with the Spry Element Selector

I am trying to set up a toggle button that will show/hide
rows >1 when clicked. I've used Adobe's
"Hiding
Table Columns with the Spry Element Selector" example and it
worked fine with an HTML list, until I linked to actual XML data.
Now it works in reverse. What gives?
Here's the example:

Hiding the column data. What is the point of DBMS_CRYPTO package?

DB version:10g R2
A requirement has come where we need to hide some columns' data from end users.
Trasparent Data Encryption feature wouldn't do the trick as it encrypts the data only at the storage level not at user level.
I've seen PL/SQL codes using DBMS_CRYPTO which encrypts and decrypts input strings like the code mentioned in
Re: Need some hints on using dbms_crypto
What is point of these PL/SQL codes?
They can only be used to create functions which will be called in VIEWS. That is the only use of DBMS_CRYPTO package. Right?
Do you guys have any suggestion in hiding/obfuscating column data? Is creating a view my only option?

One solution to "hide" data (columns or rows) from end users is simply to create a view.
The end user will be granted only access to the view and not to the base tables behind the view. The view will only expose those cloumns and rows that the end users is supposed to see.
Of cause this has nothing to do with encryption. But I don't see anything in your business requirements that needs to use encryption methods.

XML Report - Conditionally showing a column in between other columns

I have a XML Report, with columns
A, B, C, D
Now I need to add a new column E in between B and C when certain condition is satisfied.
A, B, E, C, D
for column E, I kept <?if:column='X'?> columnname <?endif?>.
When condition is satisfied it is displaying column and also values, but when not an empty column is displayed with no values, I dont want this empty column when condition is not satisfied.
It should just show A, B, C, D instead of A, B, , C, D
Request you to help me with my requirement.

Hi Kavipriya, thanks for response.
I tried below condition for that column:
<?if@column:OM_Due_Date_X='Y'?> <?OM_Due_Date_L?> <?end if?>
I am setting OM_Due_Date_X in sql package to 'Y' if customer is 'Rob' else it will be 'N'.
If 'Y', then I am displaying a column name OM Due Date which is <"OM_Due_Date_L?>
Now for Column values it is just <?OM_Due_Date?>
Do I need to change anything here ?

Conditionally Formatting One Column Based On The Value of Another Column

I have the following requirement:
I have 2 columns in a report showing Actual Sales & Budget Sales each year. I am using a bar chart to show the different values for these 2 columns.
I need to conditionally format the column "Actual Sales" so that if it is less than the "Budget Sales" it will appear in red, and green if "Actual Sales" is greater than "Budget Sales." So in a nutshell,
CASE WHEN "Actual Sales" < "Budget Sales" THEN
RED
ELSE
GREEN
END
Thoughts anyone?

CASE WHEN (COL1 - COL2) < 0 then Red else Green end

PS.Shakeer Hussain

Hi PS.Shakeer Hussain,
In Excel, we store these data in excel is string type. Based on your code, it is dataTime type. So if fails when compare with dataTime and string.
Please try the following code, Useing DateTime.ToOADate Method to convert to the equivalent OLE Automation date. It works fine on my side.
OleDbDataAdapter dbAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter("select * from [Sheet1$] WHERE createdDate < "+DateTime.Parse("3/29/2015").ToOADate(), connExcel);

Hiding few columns before displaying alv grid output

Hi All,
I struck up at hiding few columns before displaying alv output. I have used used FM: REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. By using this i am displaying 29 fields to the output. But before displaying the output i want to hide few columns among them, and also those fields have to be avialable for further selection by the user by using layout.
Kindly help me in this,
Regards
Srinivas K

Hi,
In field catalog set NO_OUT='X' for all the columns you want to hide. They will be available when changing layout for ALV, so you can show them at any time.

Condition on a column in a table

Hi,
Can anybody tell me, how to include a condition on a column value in a table.
what i mean is, for example, i have a table with 4 columns namely a,b,c,d. i want to have a condition on column c that its value should always be greater than value of column d. i guess, check constraint cannot handle this, as it would not be possible to know the value until column d is populated.
can anybody please tell a solution to this?

I am a newbie in dba side, just asking a doubt:
sql>desc t;

Table altered.
sql>insert into t

1 row created
sql>update t
set sno2 = 101
where sno = 100;
update t
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02290: check constraint (HR8.CONS_CHECK) violated
Thus can he ever by pass the constraint?Pls clarify..

Updating a JTable by hiding/displaying columns

I have a customizable JTable where I display/hide columns according to a users' selection criteria. My code works fine for hiding/displaying columns if the Jtable is opened for the fist time, but doesnot work if I want to hide columns in already displayed table.How do I do it?? Any clue?? I tried
myTabModel.fireTableDataChanged();
but this only works for updating the table data...it does not hide columns for me... when I hide column I just remove desired column like this:
myTable.removeColumn(myTable.getColumn("Column 3"));

Here is the sample code I tried. It worked without any invalidate or repaint or updateUI(). generated using NetBeans

What exactly is the error you get? What HTML is showing in the HTML source?
Just by looking at this I would say you need to remove the "/" in front of the f?p
Keep in mind this way could cause problems if you start to use checksum, then you might want to look into using APEX_UTIL.PREPARE_URL to create your URL.

How can I count the number of values in one column which answer to a condition in another column?

I'm using Numbers 3.2 and would like to count the names in a column which satisfy a condition in a different column. There are 3 "streams" through which these names have come to me, and I would like to easily identify how many have come from each stream. Any help?

Hi DirtyDawg,
COUNTIF is your friend here.
If your source is in column C and your streams are 1, 2 and 3:
=COUNTIF(C,"=stream1")
=COUNTIF(C,"=stream2")
=COUNTIF(C,"=stream3")
These need to be in a footer or header row or in a different column than C.
hope this helps,
quinn
