Use of Hierarchy - and GOTO report based on it

Hi
I have a infoobject that uses an organisation unit hierarchy (0ORGUNIT). I use this in a report that also has a GOTO report connected. Both report has the 0ORGUNIT and its hierarchy.
When I navigate down in the hierarchy, II do a GOTO in a value in the hierarchy, and the filters will be taken into the GOTO report. But....
WHen i navigate myself down to the lowest level of information in the hierarchy, and on that levell rightclick and to a GOTO, the filters on the 0ORGUNIT (and the hierarchy) does not applies on the GOTO report. All other filters are applied on te GOTO report, but not the hierarchy.
In the GOTO report I tried to click on the "Filter" button beside the name, and it is empthy. I can't sellected anything.
I also get the message:
Diagnosis
Node restrictions are only permitted for a characteristic with active presentation hierarchy by a node of another hierarchy and end node restrictions.
You have tried to filter a characteristic with active presentation hierarchy using a node of another hierarchy or a range selection (for example, interval, contain pattern).
This can take place by toggling the hierarchy or, for example, by using the report interface.
System Response
The filter is not evaluated for the characteristic, but removed instead.

How to use both Static and dynamic Reports in WAD using a single template.

Hi,
I have 2 reports - Report1 & Report2. Report1 is a static report with 3 column in it. In WAD user does not want to see the third series in the chart so I have made series3 invisible in the chart.
I am calling the Report2 via 'SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMETERS' in the button option.
Now the issue is that, Report2 is a dynamic report which is using a calyear vaiable range. As Report2 is using the template of Report1, Series3 of Report2 also gets hidden.
Any solution for this?
Thanks
Nisha

Hi Nisha,
After setting the Report 2 DP thru SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMETERS, you can use one more command SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS on the Chart webitem & edit the Series to make it visible. If there is a way to reset the DP back to Report 1, then you must once again use SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS to hide the Series.
Or you can use another Chart webitem for Report 2 DP & make the Chart webitem for Report 1 hidden & the Chart webitem for Report 2 visible using SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS after setting Report 2 DP using SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMETERS.

Wrapping Crosstab using SAP Hierarchy in Crystal Reports

Hi Experts,
hope you are fine!
Need some advice and helpful hints achieving my goal.
Frontend Tool: Crystal Reports for Enterprise SP2 or even Crystal Reports 2008.
DataSource is BEx Query with Profit Center Hier. in columns and a cost type structure in Rows.
Using a Cross Tab and selecting the PC in columns, results in that Crystal is displaying the hierarchy as it is, which is actually good.
But not readable if you have more than 150 child nodes and more than 15 Levels.
I am looking for a optimized way to display such a scenario.
Whtin this lesson the mentor is explaining how to wrap columns within crosstabs.
Link: [http://www.crystalkeen.com/articles/crystalreports/crosstabwrapping.htm]
The formula @EachRegion is counting the rows and the formula @GroupRegions is than defining the number of regions to be displayed in the columns.
I was looking to replace the formula @EachRegion with the HierarchyLevel(GroupingLevel) function which is delivering the same result, but due to any reason I can not group on this formula.
My intention was grouping on the level number and keep all nodes on the samel level together so the wrapping should happen level wise. The report finally should look like this using a cross tab:
Group 1                               level 0
            cost a                       50
            cost b                       20
Group 2                               level 1
           cost a
           cost b
Or do you have other option to have a better view on this, maybe using subreports or anything what Crystal is offering?
Apologize if this sounds a bit confusing, but your hints are much appreciated.
Thanks and bye

Hi Debi,
thanks for your reply.
The formula for grouping purposes is: HierarchyLevel(GroupingLevel({ZTEMP_Profit-Center\Profit-Center}))
The result is that for each node the level number is displayed.
I tried to put in the detail section or grouping section thinking that it should be used first in the report somewhere but wo success.
appreacite your response.
bye

How to call a stored procedure on time basis with out using sql job and GOTO

Hi,
I wanted to call a stored proc, on time basis ,
please tel me how it can be done with out using sql job , goto .
1) That is, is there any timer aviable in sqlserver.
q2) And which one is better GOTO or sql job.
yours sincerley

Raj, Check if my explanation helps you:
Your job runs every 10 seconds.
Lets say first time you are scheduling and running your job at 12:00:00 PM
Now your proc will start executing.
Say it got finished at 12:00:07.
Now the next schedule time is 12:00:10 PM.
The moment this time hits, the job will get invoked and start executing the proc.
Lets say this time it finished at 12:00:22 PM (It took 2 extra seconds)
This time the scheduled time is already gone (12:00:20 PM), thus it'll now run at the next schedule that is 12:00:30 PM.
Thus if anytime your job takes more than 10 seconds to run, it'll just miss those particular schedules overlapping with execution time. Otherwise you are good to go.
PS: A job is the best way to handle this, in your problem statement you don't need a job but that would be wrong. You have another way to do that, if you keep running your procedure all the time and the moment your timestamp hits a multiple of 10
seconds you can run your logic and then returning to the timer. But this is extremely wrong for a system. Even if your requirement is extremely transactional and complex, I would not suggest this. If the job is taking more than 10seconds (which it might if
your logics inside are complex), you should optimize your code and table architecture.
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real.
The climb is all there is.

Parent child hierarchy and measure using lookup

Hi,
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.5 and I have an issue with a parent child hierarchy, which is setup like case 4 in this example . When I create a simple analysis using the hierarchy and a simple measure, it works fine. But when I try to use a calculated measure using a lookup formula, I get the following error:
Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS.

Differences between Position Hierarchy and Supervisory Hierarchy

Hi All,
Can somebody tell me the pros and cons of using Position Hierarchy and Supervisory Hierrarchy .
Regards,

If you use the Position hierarchy then you will have to go through the process of defining all of the positions / posts in your organisation and specifying all reporting lines in your organisation from top to bottom. You will then have the overhead of maintaining your positions and position hierarchy and keeping them in line with the business on a day to day basis.
If your organisation is fairly fluid, e.g. a project based organisation or an expanding organisation, these can be very significant overheads. Business re-organisation will create a large workload in creating new positions and migrating employees to them.
If you are in a fairly static organisation e.g. public sector then it may well be that the position structure is well documented and changes infrequently. In this case use of positions and position hierarchies is a simple data entry task and adds significant value.
The supervisor hierarchy is more flexible. It is simply a field held against the person record. However, there is very little validation on it so the you have to put manual processes in place to make sure the data is valid e.g. leavers are replaced and that no loops are created.
I would recommend NOT using positions unless yours is a public sector implementation.

Andrew

Using a hierarchy but also showing work orders that are not in hierarchy

good morning bi people,
i have a requirement to show data from a hierarchy which includes Operation and Maintenance information. for example it has an account broken into labour/material/trucking and below this is the pm acivity type and secondary cost element (concatenated). this hierarchy is a manually created hierarchy that is uploaded to BW and is not in ECC. The users do not want to see the concatenated field at the end of the hierarchy, but instead, want to see the Work Orders that have the PM activity types.
At the present time, we have the report using the hierarchy but we need the work orders to replace the pm activity type/secondary cost element concatenated field. the work order field is a free characteristic and when we drag in the work order in analyzer, it works correctly.
1) is this possible to use the hierarchy and somehow map the work order field to the end of the hierarchy within crystal?
2) do you have a suggestion to change the hierarchy, without being a manual nightmare?
all conversations are welcome.
Erik

Good Day Ingo,
i have created a word document with screen shots of the hierarchy from BW, a screen shot of the BEx showing the free characteristic of Maintenance Order and a screen shot of the crystal report with the PM Activity type concatenated to the Cost Element. Once again, we do not wish to see the concatenated field, but rather see the Maintenance orders that have a PM Activity type the same as the concatenated field.
here is the link.

Informix Database for CVP and IPCC reporting, other suggested product

Hi All;
Currently we have in the site Informix Database to be used for CVP and IPCC reporting, but is there other recommended product than it to be more rich in the features and able to use it to generate reports for CVP and IPCC?
From the other side: Any one suggest a front end tool (web based tool) that can be used to generate reports from the Informix DB?

For more complex data needs Cisco has a range of options that using the VIM family of products, particularly the new CUIC/VIM Datamart solution which might be of interest. http://www.exony.com/category/tags/cuic

What is the maximum size the of files we can use for reading and writing

Hi
i have attached a vi which i use to read and write reports.
My system would run continuosly for more than 2 days, typically i expect a file size of 30MB per day. I keep on appending the data in the file.
The VI everytime opens the file appends it and closes.
Does this affect the performance as the file size increases?
What is the effective way to do it?
Is there any file size restriction in windows?
Attachments:
Read_or_Write_Current_Cycle's_Data.zip ‏27 KB

First: The performance by increasing file size depends from the file system (FAT32 or NTFS) you are using. NTFS will be better if the file size increases. Also the size of the partition will have an effect on this.
Second: The effective way will be not to close and reopen the file. Use "File I/O > Advanced File Functions > Flush File" to write the file to the system instead of File Close and File Open. Flush File will force the file system driver to write the file to disk and update the file information on disk. On NT based systems this will be done with a latency time of 4 seconds. This is even true if you close the file and the time cannot be changed.
Third: There are file restriction to the lenght which do not depend on Windows, they depend on
the file system. FAT32 can handle files until 4 GByte (2^32) and NTFS can handle 2^64 Bytes. Since LV is platform independent the LV file functions can handle only 4 GByte. The offset parameter in the file functions has a I32 data type.

CRM Interactive Reports - CRM and BI Reporting client same

Hello all,
I am setting up CRM Interactive reports in CRM 7.0 wherein the CRM client and the BI Reporting client are both the same. I know it is not recommended by SAP, but our requirement is very less.
I am following the steps as mentioned in the Best Practices C41. But, when I am trying to set up a source SAP system in RSA1(Section 4.14 of C41), i get an error saying that 'Source system XXXCLNTYYY already exists'. This is the same system which has already come under the BI node in RSA1.
Since we are using the same client for both the systems, how do I rectify this error?
Please help!
Regards
Debolina

Dear Srinivas,
One of the purposes of CRM Interactive reporting is quick-enablement of frequently used reports. Ofcourse these differ in all aspects with BI reports. These are faster and accurate when the data population is small.
It is not suggested to use dedicated BI server for Interactive reporting.
Anyways we can use both Interactive and BI reports simultaneously as per your client's requirement.
Hope it helps.
Thanks

My hospital uses both Epic and Cerner Reporting. As a business objects admin I was asked to integrate Epic with Crystal Reports. I'm Using BOE XI 3.1 and Crystal Reports 2008, I want a planning to integrate my Crystal reports server with Epic reporting. Any ideas how can I start the integration and step by step procedure to follow while integration.

Problem to display Formular,letter and label Report

Hi all,
I use formular, letter and label reports.When i run them in paper layout, they display fine but not in web layout.
I would like to know, how can i fix this problem.
Thanks for ur help!
TYAG

hello,
there is a significant difference between desformat=html and the web layout in 9i. where desformat=html (or htmlcss for that matter) generates the paper layout to HTML, the web layout is a complete different layout model and needs to be created separate from the paper layout. the wizard will not show you things like label, form and letter when you create a web layout, since those layout types don't make sense in a web layout, where we are talking about pure HTML generation.
what i am still not clear about is what you mean by "at runtime" your labels don't show. do you mean, when you run the report, it does not produce any output ?
thanks,
ph.

'Hierarchy Based Login' and 'Direct Reports' field in Dim - Position table

Hello -
I am trying to build a "My Team's" report, which basically shows the logged in Managers ( and his subordinates) revenues rolled up by default. Then the manager needs to drilldown on his name and see revenues grouped by his direct reports. I am using OBIEE 10G. In the out of the box RPD, there are two fields in the BMM layer called 'Hierarchy Based Login' and 'Direct Reports'.
1. The 'Hierarchy based Login' field uses the INDEXCOL method to get relevant column from the W_POSITION_DH table based on the the Logged in users hierarchy level (the hierarchy level is stored in a session variable (HIER_LEVEL). This session variable works fine and i have tested the SQL)
2. The 'Direct Reports' is using the same INDEXCOL method, just that it uses the formula HIER_LEVEL - 1. This works fine as well.
The issue i am facing is neither of these out-of-the-box fields are assigned to the Position dimension (the position dimension also exists OOTB).
So basically, i am able to create a manager and his direct subordinate report, but without any drill functionality.
I am trying to get the report to drill all the way down to the bottom most level of the heirarchy.
Any help to get this working is much appreciated

What i meant was neither of these out-of-the box fields are assigned to a Dimension Hierarchy ( there is a hierarchy called 'Position' that already exists out-of-the box). Other fields in the 'Dim-Position' table are assigned to a level in this position hierarchy, except these two. I guess what i am trying to achieve is to dynamically assign the hierarchy level based on the users Hierachy level in W_POSITION_DH table.
Thanks for spending time to look into my issue

Use of filters and aggregations based on hierarchy nodes in an update rule

Hello,
I need to calculate some indicators from a ODS (BW 3.5) that contain raw data to another one that will contain indicators. These figures are the results of the use of filters and aggregations based on hierarchy nodes (for example: all sales accounts under a node).
In fact, this is typically a query but I want to store these figures, so I need
I understood I have to use a start routine. I never did that before.
Could you provide me with easy-to-understand-for-newbies examples of:
- filtering data based on the value of an infoobject (value must be empty, for example)
- filtering and aggregation of data based on the appartenance to hierarchy nodes (all sales figures, ....)
- aggregation of the key figures based on different characteristics after filtering of these
Well, I am asking a lot ...
Thank you very much
