User selected global filter for country

I am trying to build a scenario where I have a km repository like the following
Australia
- Support docs
- Product Brochures
USA
- Support docs
- Product Brochures
Then I want to build a KM navigation iView that allows the user to select a global "filter" of their country... An Australian user would select Australia (a pre defined property per the global property service) and then this would be used to drive the content shown in the iView.
I should be able to do this via permissions but I would rather have the user select the area of interest as they may be authorised to see both.
Does anyone have any ideas on how this could be done?
Thanks in advance
Bernard

Hi Bernard,
   You can create two KM Navigation iviews, one point to Australia and the other to USA folders.
   On the other hand, if you want to classify these document to do a search..so on. You must create country metadatas Australia/USA and type of document (Support/Product). Both of metadatas could be mandatories when you upload a file.
   Also, you can have only folder where all document are uploaded and assign these metadata. Then create taxonomies to classify them by country/type of documents so on. At last, your km navigation iview to point these taxonomies

User-Selectable Analog Inputs for X-Y Graph Axis?

Hey,
I've done a lot of looking at demos/examples, and I'm still have some issues with this one. I'd like to have a all of my analog inputs inside a drop down box on the front panel (one box for each axis). The user would be able to select which input they wanted on a particular axis from the drop down boxes. This would all be on the fron panel of course.
I found one good example (Signal Generation & Processing.vi) located in NI > Labview 7.1 > examples > apps, but I can't quite follow the sub-vi's. Note that I'd like the selected signals displayed on the X-Y graph to be real-time, not from logged data. Is an X-Y graph even the best plot for this? Thanks for the help ahead of time!
-Doug

Are you sure you want an XY graph? An XY graph will take your two inputs and plot them against each other, not against time. If this is what you want, here's a VI that has four different inputs simulating four acquired channels, and lets you select which of the four you want for both the X and Y axes.

Displaying the user selection in Header for HFR

Hello Experts,
I have a prompt on a dimension in my report. The user can enter more than one values. I need to display the names of all the members selected by the user for the dimension in the header of the report. Can anyone plz throw some light on this.
Thanks,
Ravi B

Hi Ravi,
In text box it seems to be impossible to display the prompt members.
Only feasible option seems to be display those selected members via another grid.
But the problem here is that you cant put a grid into the header. So if your reports contain only one page then only this option might be helpful to you.
but if you have some limit on the number of members selected in the prompts then you can do it in text box also by hard coding. and nobody should select 100 memers at one go in prompts as i think. I really dont know what type of requirements you have.
Let see if your problem get solved.

Rahul

Identifying user selection of drill filter

Hie Guys,
I am creating a report that contains a single hyperlink to different reports based on the user selection of the drill filters. I need to be able to identify what drill filter the user selected in the form of a formula so that I can direct the user to the appropriate report when they click on the hyperlink.
For e.g.
If user selects drill filter for month, take them to report 1
If user selects drill filter for department, take them to report 2.
If user selects drill filter for Unit, take them to report 3..
Thanks.

Hi Jeewan
First you need to know if a filter selection was made ,
DrillNumMonth=Count([Month - Key])
Second Obtain the value of selection
DrillMonth=ReportFilter([Month - Key])
Third Evaluate
=If(([DrillNumMonth]=1; Link_Month ; If([DrillNumDim2=2; Link_Dimension2 .....
I hope this help you

Multiple filter for cube drill through

Hi,
I am using MS-Analysis service 2012 to develop cube and office 2013 to browse the cube data.
I knew that drill through action will not work for Excel 2007 and below if the user selected multiple filter. is there any option available for Excel 2o12?
It is very important for our client to have multiple filter and drill through the details.
Please help..

Hi Jithesh,
As Marco said, SQL Server Analysis Services doesn't support multiselect drillthrough statements currently. Here are some suggestions on the similar thread, please see:

Global binding for radio buttons needs tweaking

When selecting global binding for a text or numeric field, its corresponding field with the same name also changes to global binding.
However when doing this for radio button exclusion groups, the other radio button groups don't automatically change to global. You have to do it manually.

Found the problem in another topic:
scott sheck - 1:30am Jun 29, 07 PST (#6 of 7)
A pasted radio button is automatically added to an existing exclusion group if the last added item was a radio button. This is in the help.
I wish there was a default to turn this off because I don't want to add a temporary item just to get a new exclusion group.

Reset timer after user selection + Progress bar

Hello there!
I am trying to create a VI for humidity. So far everything works fine for that. I also wanted the ability to let the user define the frequency of data collections in units of time. ie: every <x> minutes/hours/days/etc. This also works to some extent.
My problem is that say I choose 1 second, then change the unit to 1 minute. It'll do exactly as expected: the VI will wait 1 minute until capturing a data point. The problem is what if the user changes it back to seconds before that minute is over. The VI will still wait the full minute before changing to the new collection frequency unit.
Is there someway to force reset the timer if the user changes a selection?
Also, I am trying to make a progress bar to let the user know how far the VI is along with the collection interval. I thought it'd be convenient if a user selects 1 hour for example. There is no way of knowing how far along that hour wait is. I can't seem to get this one to work either. I thought it'd be something like
1)get current date/time seconds
2)add the user interval (ie: 60 seconds) to #1
3) get a %
4) add that to progress bar
5) if reaches 100, then reset.
Also for some reason my STOP button doesnt work for this loop.....
Any help on this would be great! I've attached the VI I have going thus far.
thanks so much

Get year from user selected month in field name

Hi BExperts,
I would your help about this problem on BI 7 :
At the opening of the query, user selects a month (for example 03.2007).
From this month, i have to indicate key figures on the selected month (03.2007) and key figures on the corresponding year (here 2007).
I'm using a variable in order to get the selected month (0I_CMNTH).
I don't know how to get the corresponding year (with a variable) ?
For example : user selects "03.2007", in the query i would have :
Period Key figure
03.2007     17
2007           38
Thanks for help.
Points will be assigned.
Cheers,
Vince.

Hello,
         I am not sure about the one you mentioned but this is another way which you can try by creating the customer exit variable V_YEAR under 0calyear characteristic and add the following code for gettting the previous year.
data: year(4) type n,
         year1(4) type n.
when 'V_YEAR '.
if i_step = 2. "after the popup
loop at i_t_var_range into loc_var_range
where vnam = '0I_CMNTH'.
year = loc_var_range-low (4).
year1 = year - 1.
clear l_s_range.
l_s_range-low = year1.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
append l_s_range to e_t_range.
exit.
endloop.
endif.

How to make a report to display next 18 months of data with when user select a particular month from the filter in power pivot tabular model.

Hi,
i have a dimension table with month_key having values (201201,201202,201203.......202011,202012) and month name ( Jan 12, feb 12,......NOV 20, Dec 20) and a fact table with columns (month_key ,measure_types, Amount)
My requirement is to create a power pivot report in which when a user select a month from the filter, the report should display the (selected month+18 ) month's data against each type . when JAN 12 is selected ,the jan 2012 +18 = june 2013
, month name should be populated with months till june 2013 only .
i tried creating calculated column"END DATE " in the fact table with dax expression to calculate the 18th monh from the current month as below
month_key END DATE
201201       201306
201202       201307
and thought of filtering the table with month key <= ENDDATE but it is not working as expected. could you please guide me on this ? Is there any time intelligence function that serve the purpose . Iam using excel 2010
..hence could not do any calculation on the report side also. please suggest .
Thanks in advance

Do you need to show the measure calculated for those 18 months as a total on 1 row, or do you need to select a single month and then display on row filters 18 distinct rows?
The first is trivial as driezl has suggested.
The second will require a second calendar table.
I created this example workbook for a coworker who had a similar problem. You will have to use the disconnected table as your filter and pull your related table onto the rows.
Finally, the easiest way to deal with the sort of date arithmetic you need to do is to restructure your date table to have a series of "Sequential" fields. These fields should be the number of units of time since the beginning of your calendar.
For example, consider a calendar starting on January 1, 2010. For January - December 2010, [MonthSequential] = 1, 2, ..., 12. For January - December 2011, [MonthSequential] = 13, 14, ..., 24, and so on, incrementing by 1 for each sequential month in time.
Assuming you have this set up in your date tables (one related to your model - DimDate - and one disconnected - DisconDimDate) your measure would look like this:
18 Month Measure:=
CALCULATE( [Measure]
, FILTER( DimDate
, DimDate[MonthSequential] >= MAX( DisconDimDate[MonthSequential] )
&& DimDate[MonthSequential] <= MAX( DisconDimDate[MonthSequential] ) + 18
Please review this example along with the workbook I have linked above.

Selecting a column in Answers report based on user prompt/ apply filter

I need to do the following in OBIEE Answers report (version 10.1.3.4.1):
1) Think of a simple table with dim TX_type and some measures like month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
so the fact table looks like (column names) tx_type, month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
2) I need to select the measure column based on a user dashboard prompt, prompt populates a presentation variable var_month = jan or feb or mar
3) I need to select the correct measure (one of these month_jan, month_feb, month_mar) and then apply column filter based on the dim TX_type to split the values of these into multiple columns for report. So the report may look like (in Answers)
Sales , Tax, overheads
where Sales may be defined as sum(month_jan) where rows have TX_type = 'sales'
where Tax may be defined as sum(month_feb) where rows have TX_type = 'tax'
where overheads may be defined as sum(month_mar) where rows have TX_type = 'overheads'
IF the user selects jan
IF user selects Feb then the 3 report columns are based on month_feb and likewise for month_mar
I cannot use column selector option as the report column further apply filter in column filter definitions in Answers...
4) When I try to build the column filter using a presentation variable (var_month), the presentation variable is not getting populated in the column filter.
For e.g. IF var_month = 'jan'
THEN month_jan (let us assume the logical column name is month_jan too)
ELSE month_feb and so on...
However, the var_month always shows 0 in the IF clause. If we used a repository variable instead, it works fine. But since repostory variable cannot be changed on the fly (by user prompt) it is not usable.
We cannot change fact table defintion....and we have 12 measures column and about 8-10 different colum filter based report columns using this measure.

Hi shyamvaran,
have you thought about a SQL statement in the prompt, something like:
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Jan' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Feb' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Mar' end
FROM "Subject Area"
union
SELECT
case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Apr' end
FROM "Subject Area"
etc...
Use this to give you the 12 values for your months then give the prompt column a presentation variable name and set a default value in the 'Default To'. Also set the same default value for the filter.
A couple of points:
1. If you're transforming the presentation variable from 'Jan' to 'month_jan' you may need to edit the syntax for the filter column (not using the dialog box).
2. If you're transforming the behaviour of a dimension / measure column in the report, have you specified the syntax correctly, e.g. sum('@{pres_var}')?
Hope this helps,
Justin

in this case user will enter no.of days in ZNODAYS and that being is used in calculation and used in the next varaible....

Disabling a Filter on user selection

HI,
I have two columns of which one is a flag (y/n) and another is a date . i want the user to see the report containing both these columns filtered on the basis of Flag .i.e. when a user opens that report he should see all the values corresponding only to 'flag='y' . I also want the user to view reports on the basis of a date which he chooses from the calendar . I have implemented the same using a calendar prompt on the 'date ' column. The challenge is that whenever a user chooses any date , he shud also be able to view records for flag=N' . i/e. the flag filter should get disabled on his selectioN.
Can anybody help me out if its possible ?

Hi,
If I am understanding you right, you can try the below option:
In your report, currently there would be a static filter on flag='Y', but you need to include both 'Y' and 'N' flag values in filter when user selects a particular date on dashboard. If this is what you are looking for then, assign a presentation variable to the date column in the dashboard prompt (say varDate). Next in your report, add another filter. This filter would apply flag='N' clause in case if date is selected in the prompt. Hence in your report you should have filters like one given below :
FlagColumn = 'Y'
OR
FlagColumn = case when '@{varDate}{1900-01-01}' <> '1900-01-01' then 'N' end
Thanks

Authorization check for Selection of Filter Values for Query Definition

I am looking for a solution to the following problem:
Assuming you have confidential master data in your development system.
How can I protect a query developer to see only master data values, that he is allowed to see when e.g. creating a restricted key figure.
I know that you can enable a setting in the "Business Explorer" tab that says "Query Def. Filter Value Selection". The help says:
This field describes how the selection of filter values and the restriction of characteristics function when you define queries.
The values from the master data table are normally displayed when you restrict characteristics. For characteristics without a master data table, the values from the SID table are displayed instead. In a number of cases, however, it could be better to display only the values that are in the InfoProvider. The setting "InfoProvider Values Only" is permitted for this reason.
This would almost do it, but it can be overwritten in the BEx Query Designer.
Is there a way of preventing Query Developers from seeing all InfoObject values when creating restricted key figures?
Thanks for your replies.

Hi,
Thanks for the points. I am not too sure how you guys go about implementing SAP. Sorry I am not trying to be rude but you're not suppose to see any "real" data in DEV where all development takes place. You can't prevent query developers to see data. Without data there is no way they know their queries are right or wrong. Ask ECC guys to load dummy data to DEV environment that closely resemble those data currently in legacy e.g. real data. Sorry it was my mistake at the beginning when i thought it was preventing specific end users to see data that are not belong to them.

Setting a Default Page Filter for Large Number of Users?

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently running Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 10.1.3.3.3 and have a quick question regarding page filters.
I have a report with several page filters. One of the page filters is a multi-select filter of values A, B and C.
I want to configure my report such that all of my users who log into this report, will automatically be defaulted to the results where the page filter is pre-selected to be equaled to "A". Obviously, if the user wants to then choose another option, he/she may do so manually by toggling the page filter after the report initially renders.
The only simple way I know how to configure this is through a manual process of logging into the user's account, selecting Page Filter = 'A' for them, and saving their selections under Page Options. Once saved, there is a checkbox that I can select to make this saved selection the default home page for this report for that particular user.
The problem is that if I have several hundred users, it would be unfeasible for me to go and manually modify each user's account one by one to set the page filter = 'A' for each login.
There has to be an easier way to universally set a page filter on a certain report such that any group of users (that I can define) will see the same initial, default page filter value settings that I choose.
Does anyone know of an easier method to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Alan

Hi,
1. Please put filter value default A then when user login in OBIEE it will display always A data only.
2. Which security method are you implemented means LDAP/External table kindly conform.
If you want see the same page across all users.you have to create table in Database.
Follow below steps.
1. create table in database like below.
col1 col2
groupname Dashboard portal path
2. Create system variable Go--> Manage-->Variables --> select system variable --> New Portal Path option.
3. This variable apply in group level.
I am not sure this what your looking so far.
Award points it is useful.
Thanks,
Satya
