Unable to utilize Drill-Down for all Filtered Dates in Xcelsius Engage 2008

Iu2019m very new to the Xcelsius Engage 2008 product and donu2019t understand what is needed to correct the drill-down problem encountered in a newly created dashboard.
The issue is with Drill-Down from a filtered chart. For some reason, I am unable to correctly pick any data item from the chart located top of workspace to drill-down to the lower chart when selecting a month beyond Jan u201911.
Iu2019ve unhidden the Label Based Menu, List Box 1 and List Box 2 during attempt to find out why I am unable to drill-down when I select a month other than Jan u201911. As youu2019ll see, when you u2018manuallyu2019 click in the unhidden List Box 2, the bottom chart is displaying the correct data.
Also - new to post for this forum - is there a way to attached the XLF to help with visual support to the problem?
Thank you,
Deborah

Hi there and welcome.
First troubleshooting step is to add a spreadsheet component to your canvas so you can watch what's happening. Second, have a look at this step-by-step to make sure you're not missing any steps. http://blog.davidg.com.au/2011/04/xcelsius-interactivity-chart-drill-down.html
Can you select only Jan '11? Or only up to Jan '11? Are you selecting whole months or days?
Assuming that your second chart is filtering for this date, I would check that the formatting is correct. Try, for example, removing all formatting so that you're seeing 40668 instead of a date. Does that work?
Also, it can be helpful to post your version number. This can be found under Help > About Xcelsius and will something like 5.3.5.0

How do I create a drill down for my summary data?

I have 7 fields of summary data with all having a common link called the customer account number.
I have tried the following steps several time carefully and was unable to get my drill down to work.
Insert menu > Group and chose the customer account number as my group field
copy and paste the summary fields to the group header ( which I now have hundreds of GH1)
Right click on the details section and chose Hide.
Suppress the Group Footer
File Menu > Report options and check on Show All Headers on Drill Down.
I must be missing a step somewhere here. I end up with no summary fields showing (to drill down into), and the customer account numbers showing.
Can some check this out for me?

hi Michael,
you need a group to have drill down. you can't drill down on a report footer. if you can't group by these categories then you can't have drill down.
your other option is to create an on demand subreport that you can open. i would suggest that you go through a bunch of the e-learning tutorials on crystal reports here. after that go to the online help for crystal reports and use the search tab and search for "creating an on demand subreport"
you'd need to create an on demand subreport for each total that you are showing. again, please see the elearning topics especially on subreports, grouping. and then do follow the steps on on demand subreports in the online help.

Unable to Drill Down for Report Designer

hellooo...I created a report using a query in Report Designer. My query is having a structure in the row and I'm using this query for the report in Report Designer. After I created this report in Report Designer, I assign this report in Web Application Designer and create a navigation pane to link this report for the drill down function. But I have problem on drill down this report in the web template when i click on this navigation pane for the free char i defined. Eg: when i drill down for the char in the free char under the navigation pane item, I cannot perform the drill down horizontally but can perform drill down vertically. After perform drill down, I don't see the values from that char being displayed in the reports. Just wondering report in report designer cannot have any drill down function? or is my query problem due to the structure i defined? thanks alotttt...

The report designer needs a fixed Column definition ( structures)
In case of drill across this requirement is not fullfilled.
This is not changable and is due to design, sorry.
so you can only drill down.
best regards,
Kai

Drill down for infotypes

Hi,
I made a select-option for the field PA0290-PASSL,
but, but i noticed that i couldn't drill down to the table contents of the pa0290-passl. I thought maybe it has something to do with the table being an infotype. Because the select-option works fine for transparent tables like MARA. Are there any way for me to make a drill down for an infotype table such as the one i mentioned above?
Thanks,
Frank

Hi,
You can use the following code for providing F4help.
types: begin of ty_PASSL,
PASSL type PA0290-PASSL,
end of ty_passl.
data: i_passl type table of ty_passl.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR PASSL.
Select PASSL from PA0290 into table i_PASSL where .....
w_repid = sy-repid.
w_dynnr = sy-dynnr.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
retfield = 'PASSL'
dynpprog = w_repid
dynpnr = w_dynnr
dynprofield = 'PASSL'
value_org = 'S'
TABLES
value_tab = i_PASSL.
IF sy-subrc 0.
ENDIF.

Thanks and Regards.

IDA ALV - different behavior regarding "drill-down" for grouped attributes after upgrade to ERP 6.0 EHP7 SPS5

Hello Experts,
we have upgraded our Dev System to ERP 6.0 EHP 7 SPS5 (coming from SPS4).
We had implement an example with an IDA ALV. On SPS4 we could make a "drill-down" to the single lines of grouped attributes. Now with SPS5 this is not possible anymore if the grouping is done for more than one attribute.
On the following screenshot it scan be seen that the grouping is done over a Peril attribute and the Currency. I can only make a drill-down via the peril attribute, so that the aggregated values per currency are displayed. ON SPS4 it was possible to make a further drill-down for the currency attribute, so that the different single lines were visible which were part of the grouping/aggregation.
SPS5 behavior:
SPS4 behavior:
I did not found any new settings which steers the behavior. Also I did not found any note which gives a hint that this is a bug.
Does anyone know if the behavior for that was changed and why?
Thx & Best regards,
Florian

Hi Florian,
it is related with the currency field and it seems to be a bug. Please open a ticket to get the problem fixed. The component is BC-WD-CMP-ALV.

Problem with drill down on hierarchy with data on diffrent levels

Hello,
Im working on a project using oracle bi 10.1.3.4.1, and im kinda stuck with some problems.
I have a transaction table in which i have data about products, something like :
prod_id
amount1
amount2
and a product hierarchy which is something like:
prod_id
prod_name
parent_id
since bi doesnt support hierarchies, i had to faltten the hier table to somehing like this:
prod_id
lvl1_prod_id
lvl2_prod_id
lvl3_prod_id
lvl4_prod_id
and use this as my hierarchy in oracle bi. thus when i drill to lvl3, it will find all the products which are decendents of lvl3 value and group them.
the problem is, that the hier tree is not even, one product data (in transaction table) can be for lvl4 and another for lvl2. so for a lvl2 product id's in level 3 and 4 will be null.
when i try to drill to lvl 4, it takes all the rows which have the selected value in column lvl4 and group them, and if lvl 4 is null, it would sum up all the rows that have no parent at lvl4...
i hope you understand... cause it is a bit complicated..
anyway i would eventually like to add a filter of != null to the column being drilled down.
but how do i know which column is it?
i cant add a != null filter to all the columns since most if not all of them will have null in some lvl (lvl 10 or so).
one suggested solution was to make a report for each lvl with the !=null filter on the report lvl, and use navigate instead of drilldown... but that would mean i have to make 10 reports for each "real" report... a big problem to maintain.
hope i was clear enough, any suggestions?
thanks a lot!

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for your reply. If I combine two objects in one objects then I cannot use that object for drill down in my report.
I want to drill down for both Key and Text.

Can I use One Hard Drive for 2x Time Machine Back Ups and another partition for all my data?

Hi Forum,
I am planning to but a RAID disc set up, but if i get a 2 disc set up, on one disc, can i have:
Time Machine back up for one Mac
Time Machine back up for 2nd Mac
Anothe partition for all my data.
then have that RAID'd to second disc?

no one?
and if this set up was on one disc, and one partition for one TM was for the Mini that has this drive attached, would TM back up this whole drive 2x TM Partitions and 1x partitions with data on, ok? it wouldn't get confused by trying to back itself up

Drill Down Report by Grouping Data

I am using Apex version 4.
I'm wondering if there's a way to create a drill down report by grouping data and having a plus (+) symbol (or some other symbol) next to the group so the end user can expand or collapse as they want. So similar to how it works in Microsoft Excel.
So I'm looking to build a report that looks something like:
Market Office Revenue
1 $200
a $50
b $70
c $30
d $50
So there would be a way to expand or collapse the list of offices.
Anyone know of any way to do this? I was hoping to avoid having to create linked reports. Even if there's no way to get the expand/collapse functionality to work, it would be acceptable to just show the data as I have in my example above.
Thanks.

Sorry, the format of my example got messed up.
It's basically a hierarchy between Market and Office. So it's Market 1, then underneath that it would be Office a, b, c, and d. One market, multiple offices. Total market revenue of $200, then each office has the amounts listed.
Hope that makes sense.

Sales order cannot be created for the delivery date before 20.10.2008

when i create a sales order today (18102008) sales order cannot be created for the delivery date before 20.10.2008
how the system is checking the 2 days duration for delivery date - which table is having this duration days.
is it dependent on sales order type.....
actually i checkeup in V0V8 - even then i couldn't solve this error when i am creating the sales order.
Pls suggest

Dear Selvamuthu
In normal circumstances, you can create as many as sale orders as you can irrespective of delivery date, and system will not prevent to create unless you apply some user exit for some reason.
Check any user exit is applied for that sale document type where some logic would have been written in such a way that if stock is available, sale order can be created.

Drill Down for Multiple Series in a Line Chart

Hello,
I seem to have a problem with the drill-down functionality in a line chart that has multiple series.
I have a line chart that displays the readings of a patient over a period of 1 month. For each day, there is the glucose level reading, blood pressure reading, etc... So, each reading is a different series in my line chart graph.
The basic requirement is: With a mouse over event on the chart, I am willing to display all the data that belongs to that day. The data will be displayed at the bottom of the screen in a small panel. It is very simple to do it when the line chart has only 1 series:
i) Enable drill down.
ii) Choose 'Row' as insertion type.
iii) Fill out the destination field.
iv) Make sure your labels (at the bottom of the screen) get the data from the destination cell.
When there is more than one series, it becomes very difficult. XCelsius will not let me use the same destination cells for different series. So, I will have to use other destination cells. In that case, I will not know on which day is the user on. Is there any way to achieve this functionality?
Let me know if you need further information.

This is certainly possible, but there's a bit of a trick to it (and really hard to explain without screenshots!). There's two halves to it:
1. Write the date that has been selected to a cell (for each series).
2. Write the name of the series that was clicked to some cell (this is the property 'Series Name Destination').
So let's say your three series are Glucose, Blood Pressure and Temp. Have those series names in B1,C1,D1 (with your dates down in column A). Insert a row below the series names (2:2), and then set up your insertion type for the chart as 'row'. The source data (for all three series) should be your list of dates in column a. The insertion cells for the three series will be, in order, B2,C2,D2. Now, depending on which point is clicked in the chart, the selected day will be inserted into one of those three cells. Completely useless unless you know which series was clicked.
So you need to insert the name of the series that was clicked ('Series Name Destination') into the spreadsheet, let's say in F1. The rest is just Excel formulas. The logic is, you can now tell what series was clicked, and go and look up the date that was inserted for that series, then go and look up the row that corresponds to that date. So to get the date that was just clicked, your formula (in F2) would be =HLOOKUP(F1,B1:D2,2,0).
Then a VLOOKUP will get the results from that row of data. For example, if I inserted another row at row 3 (to show my 'result' values) the formula in B3 would be =VLOOKUP($F$2,$A$4:$D$13,2,0).
I hope that makes sense.

Disable Drill Down For Groups only except SubReport

 Hi All,I have 10 subreports and also 5 Groups sections in one report (version CR 10 - VS.Net 2005) I need to disable drill down on Groups except SubReport . Thanks in advance for any solution -Harini 

Where are the subreports located? You mention you have 10 subreports and also 5 group sections. Are the subreports located in the page or report header/footer sections? Are there detail records in the groups? If not, then you don't need to supress drill-down, there is nothing to drill to. If there is, suppress the detail section. If a user drills on the groups, there will be no detailed information visible.
Typically, if you have multiple groups and want to supress drill-down but still display the first group, you can use the 'drilldowngrouplevel >1' statement in the section expert to conditionally suppress the group. Right click the group, select 'Section expert', and click the formula button (the button with the 'X-2' and a little pencil)Â next toÂ 'Suppress (No Drill-Down)Â Then, enter drilldowngrouplevel >1. This should do the trick if you have your report structured this way. If not, please provide a little more detail.
Thanks and good luck.

Lose chart drill-down for webi based on BEx/BICS

Hi All,
I have a client for whom drill-down through charts based on SAP hierarchies is an essential requirement. My research here (and elsewhere) has led me to the following conclusions:
1. IDT Universe (.unx) can't be based on BEx query (functionality briefly appeared then was revoked with subsequent SP)
2. The supported/recommended method for reporting against BEx query is the BICS connectivity
3. A webi report based on a BICS (although offers nice new sap hierarchy interaction) does not support drill-down through charts
Just looking for confirmation that I am correct...and that my reports will therefore need to be based off traditional universes (.unv), to achieved drill down on charts in webi?
Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks,
Ferdie.

Hey Ferdie
1. Build table in WEBI Document include the Hierarchy object (0COSTCENTER).
2. Choose the CostCenter, right click set as Selection.
3. Now add new Blank Cell and put it near selection , enter there some text , like JUMP TO, DRILL and etc..
4. Now select the CELL . right click , Linking and Hipper Link or Document Link, and choose there another document
or you also can choose self document. When your linking to another webi document you can transfer to it parameters to prompt. So Transfer the costcenter as parameter.
The document link option available only when you run document in View mode (No rich client without JAVA). I will open OSS to SAP about this issue
Also you can choose to open the document in current window, so then user will think that he is still in same document
Example for link parameter:
/portal/1110311905/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AdJiD59b4kJKkhNpGCYT8Q0&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&lsSpsCost%20Center%3A=Ness&sWindow=Same
I hope this will work

Drill Down for Map reports

Hi All,
I have a requirement in which i need a create a sales map report across all the states in NA.
i have created a main map report using the default map gallery and displayed all the sales figures across all the states in NA. Now i want to show the City level sales when i click on a particular state. The state on which i am going to click
should enlarge (or) it should redirect to other report having the particular statemap with city related values on it.
How can i do it please help..!
Do i need to download all the local statemaps and how do i store those maps in SQL server DB. Please explain in detail.
Thnaks in Advance..!
Regards,
Balaji Prasad B
Balaji - BI Developer

Hi Balaji Prasad,
According to your description, you create a state level map. When clicking on a particular state on the map, you want to display corresponding city level map.
In this scenario, we should import state and city level shapefiles into the database, then create maps with these spatial data. After that, we should click on the state map and select Polygon Properties to create a drill down report and specify state as
parameter to run the city map. For detail information, please refer to this article:
Drill down in SSRS Map Reports.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Drill down with all other records

Hi, All
how can I see all other records after drilling down but not only record wich i drilled into?
i mean drilling like it works in Discoverer or in other words i'd like some records to be expanded and all other collapsed. Does anybody know whether it is possible?
Thanks in advance

NO, it's not, but anything requiring a major UI overhaul would require some parsing-wrapping with some server-side scripting (like you could wrap it around a php-script - but again - this is a long shot plus you'd have problems with support in case something goes awry). I've seen at someone's blog that such functionality might be released later. For now, the best thing to do would be designing your Dashboards around it. Also, have you looked at Siebel CRM? Because last time I checked - there was something like that there - and you can integrate BI to CRM (at least you could a few years ago).

Drill down on all values of a row from bex universe

Hi
We had developed BO universe on bex query, and as in web i the whole row will come as a single object.
so when we drill on the row the drill is not performing on the whole row rather its happenig on a single value of the row
Ex:- if we have rows named as US, china, America, Japan, Gross sales, invoice etc
when wen i drill on any row for lets say US, and i drilled on currecy type the drill is happening only us from the row.
But we need this drill on whole values of the row,
if aware of bex analyser, we need the same drill down future as in bex.
Any help in this regards is appreciable.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
Your code seems to be right.
Try writing the code as the below format.
CASE SY-UCOMM.
* CHECK FUNCTION CODE
WHEN '&IC1'.
* CHECK FIELD CLICKED ON WITHIN ALVGRID REPORT
IF SELFIELD-FIELDNAME = 'LIFNR'.
* READ DATA TABLE, USING INDEX ROW USER CLICKED ON
READ TABLE IT_FINAL INTO WA_FINAL INDEX SELFIELD-TABINDEX.
* SET PARAMETER ID FOR TRANSACTION SCREEN FIELD
SET PARAMETER ID 'BES' FIELD WA_FINAL-LIFNR.
* EXECUTE TRANSACTION 'XK03',AND SKIP INITIAL DATA ENTRY SCREEN.
CALL TRANSACTION 'XK03' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
Thanks
