User can't see a dashboard while others can

Running on OBIEE 11g on Windows Server 2008 using Active Directory as the user store.
I have a user that cannot see certain dashboards that are only available to a small set of users. Access is controlled through AD groups tied to roles. Other users with the exact same set of AD groups can see these dashboards without problems. They can use the problem user's machine and browser session and login without a problem and see everything they should be able to. The problem user shows nothing awry in the catalog. The user has been deleted and recreated in the catalog but still nothing can be seen. At least once this user reported being able to see the dashboards after logging in, refreshed the screen and the dashboards were no longer available.
I can see nothing in the logs that seems tied to it. Is there additional tracing or logging that could be turned on to reveal what is going on here?

I do this at home for enhanced security.
Unfortunately it does not add any security. The network name is still broadcast between any connected clients and the base station. Therefore the network name is easily discovered in just a few seconds.

  • User unable to see the dashboard

    Hi,
    We have built different dashboards (orders, sales, expenses etc). and we have give access to users whcih are under fin group.
    one user able to see orders and sales and not expenses.
    Later i tried giving "user name" along with group access to "Expenses" dashboard. Still, he is unable to see the dashboard.
    Please let me know your thoughts on this and how to resolve this.

    Check the security settings for the user at folder level @Administration>Setting>Manage Presentation Catalog

  • Macbook CAN'T see wireless network while others can

    Hey,
    I've searched everywhere and can't find the answer. I have a macbook and am visiting Norway from the US. I am in an office with several people and they can all "see" the wireless network but I cannot. BUT I can see several other networks from neighboring offices. I can connect just fine to the wireless connection at my hotel. Also I have no problem "seeing" and signing on to the office's wireless using my iphone, but as I said my macbook doesn't even see it. I tried "other" and typed in the name and password (several times) but to no advail.
    Any suggestions o wise ones?

  • Why one user can not see plan output for some orgs while other users can?

    We have several inventory/planning orgs. Suddenly one of the users is not seeing any plan output for some organizations. While other users are able to see plan out (planner workbench) for all org.
    All users use the same responsibility.
    Deleted all the folders to eliminate hidden query in default folder.
    Any other thoughts?
    Edited by: 918894 on May 5, 2013 10:22 PM

    The issue is resolved.
    In the user preferences, one user has Inventory Category Set and other user has Planning Category Set as the default. Items belonging to one Org were not assigned Planning Category Set. Thus they were not showing for the other user.
    Thanks for the response.

  • Other user can not see the data from the workbook

    Hi Friends,
    I created a workbook with some worksheets in a Business area. The owner of the workbook has no problem to view all the worksheets and get all the data returned.. I granted all the neccessary privileges to other users ,they could see the workbook, but no data returnd for the query results. Tried refresh the worksheet, same no data retrieved.Checked the SQL inspector and the plan, it showed the correct paths and execution plan without any errors there. The same query run in SQL plus by other users returned data correctly.
    By the way, I had a summary folder in the workbook. During the troubleshooting, I dropped this summary folder, still the same no data return for other users.
    Any body happen to know the cause or has some ideas on this issue?
    The discoverer administrator verson is 9.0.4.00 and the PLUS /Viewer is 9.04.45.02.
    Thank you very much,

    Hi All
    The scheduling of reports, as you have probably noticed, requires that the scheduling privilege within Discoverer Administrator tool be granted to the user NOT to a role. Scheduling will not work if you attempt this. The reason for this is that these two SYS grants must go to a user:
    GRANT SELECT ON SYS.V_$PARAMETER
    GRANT EXECUTE ON SYS.DBMS_JOB
    The user will also need to have these grants:
    CREATE PROCEDURE,
    CREATE TABLE,
    CREATE VIEW,
    EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE,
    UNLIMITED TABLESPACE on user's tablespace
    My new Discoverer 10g Handbook, which I would recommend to anyone working with Discoverer, explains scheduling in detail and even tells you how the tables and views that are used to store the results work. You won't find this information anywhere else, as you will see if you read some of the five reviews that have been left on Amazon.com. For more information about the book please look here:
    http://learndiscoverer.com/books/books.htm
    The PUBLIC grants are not having any impact. All these do is ensure that ALL users have the same basic privileges. You can just as easily grant these to any role of your choosing and it will work just fine.
    By the way, because the PUBLIC role is the MINIMUM privileges that a user can have you might want to consider reducing the end user Discoverer privileges afforded to PUBLIC. By default, all users can Create and Edit workbooks, share workbooks, save workbooks and so on. This is far too rich a set of privileges for the basic user, who in most cases will be a VIEWER user. Whenever I create a new EUL I always recommend that my client reduces the PUBLIC user's privileges and then create new roles for more advanced VIEWER and PLUS users, adding privileges as required.
    Thus, my basic VIEWER, aka PUBLIC, has only these privileges:
    Collect Query Statistics
    Item Drill
    Drill Out
    My advanced VIEWER has this additional privilege:
    Save Workbooks to Database
    My basic PLUS user has all of the above, plus these (pardon the pun):
    Create/Edit Query
    Create Link
    and my advanced PLUS users get everything, which means they now get these as well:
    Grant Workbook
    Schedule Workbooks
    I also remove the Save / Save As Actions link from Viewer which prevents the basic VIEWER users from knowing that it is there. In essence, because these users no longer can click the Save link and because they do not have the Save to Database privilege, they will not be prompted to save within Viewer no matter what they do. This now makes 10.1.2 Viewer work the same way as previous versions.
    Even though the Save link is not there, my advanced Viewer users will be prompted to save if they have made any changes. This therefore allows you to have two classes of Viewer, one who can save and one that cannot.
    I hope this helps

  • When I open bookmarks the actual sites sometime do not show just the black screen with the safari icon while others show the actual site how can I see the actual content

    I use Safari Mt Lion and when I view Bookmarks, the entire list of bookmarks show uo but on the display portion only the black screen witht the Safari icon shows while other bookmarks show the actual photo of what that bookmark is so unless I click on the bookmark on the blank ones I can not see what it is, it is inconvient because I have hundreds of bookmarks and I can not remember what I was bookmarking it for unless I can see it

    Hi
    I understand  - sorry to have missed your point before now.
    Some sites don't display those previews in safari - secure pages (https) for one, and also sites that are redirected.
    Taking the example in your screenshot, the site http://fabulouslyartsy.blogspot.com/ actually redirects to http://www.fabulouslyartsy.com/ and Safari (rather annoyingly) doesn't 'follow' the redirection & show the appropriate preview. See the image below - the blank preview is for the blogspot address, and the one visible to the right is from going directly to the site.

  • Adobe Reader XI 11.0.06 - launching this takes 5 seconds while other users are instant or 1 second.  Need troubleshooting tips or idea's

    It was at 6 to 10 seconds but I unchecked Enable Prtoected Mode at startup and unchecked Enable Enhanced Security.
    Looking for more idea's / suggestions to getting this to open instant / 1 second.
    Impacting several users.
    Win 7 Enterprise SP 1
    Intel i5 1.60 GHz
    64-bit OS

    Thank you for the response, I have tested just clicking on Adobe Reader XI version 11.0.07 and it is launching in 4 to 6 seconds.
    While I do see some improvement I'm still at a loss of why some users can instantly launch this application in (1 second or less) with the same hardware and I have several users still at a 4 seconds.
    I am going to log in as admin and stop some of our services and other background apps and test launching.

  • Missing Monitor Task:  Some users can see, some cannot

    We have a task in the monitor that came up missing in February 2009.  We do not know if it was accidently deleted and sent with a transport we recently sent or if it has been missing for a while and noticed until February 2009 was closed.  The task is still in all previous periods/years.  It was added back in February 2009 and we thought successfully transported.  We now have some users who can see the task and others who cannot.  One user cannot see it in February 2009, but in all periods going forward.  We do not have any authorizations by task and this task has been in the monitor for 4 years.

    Have the users that cannot see the task refresh the monitor to see if that helps.
    In the configuration for the task, with the parameters set to the version period and year (Feb. 2009), make certain that the consolidation frequency is up-to-date as well as the method assignments. I have experienced the method assignment missing when there are several different consolidation frequencies in play.

    Hi
    Classic scenario, so follow on documents are created in backend only (R/3 system).
    There is a BAPI call made to R/3 system (BAPI_PO_CREATE / BAPI_PO_CREATE1)
    that creates Purchase order in the specified destination.
    CLEAN_REQREQ_UP  and BBP_GET_STATUS_2 programs, scheduled at regular interval updates the SC with PO details as it creates in backend.
    This is standard functionality. You can't access the PO from SRM.
    Hope this answers your query. Do let me know.

  • How to share dashboards to other users?

    Dear All,
    I have a created dashboards in My Folders.
    Now i need to share dashboards to other users with read only.
    How can i do it?
    Please share some tutorial or advice.
    BR,
    Eba

    Hi,
    This is really bad idea but I will provide solution for you.
    Give me user permission like administrator means (whom want to access those dashboards give me permission like administrator).
    ex: Administrator can able to see all dashboard right-- same way you can asign permission like administrator.
    Create user in your rpd and select group Administrator. then try to login answer he can see all the dashboards.
    Method :-2
    Using Catalog Manager go to the user folder you want to share and change the ownership recursively to the account you are logged on Catalog Manager with. Then change and cascade the permissions recursively to add the other user/group that wants to see the user's dashboard. After doing that you will be able to reference the user's dashboard with a URL like this one (assuming the dashboard the page is named page 1 as per the default user's dashboard):
    /analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard;PortalPath=/users/user/_portal&Page=page%201&Action=Navigate
    Hope this help's
    Thanks
