Anyone can help me?

Error while making relational drill through connection

Hi All, This Problem is related to Web Analysis report on System 9,for aceratin report I need to fetch data from RDBMS. So I tried tocreate a connection for relational drill through, but it threwerror saying connection failed.The exact message was: "Geeting Connection Failed",and got Exception Meassge"oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" Could you people suggest what cause is there behind that.Here I would like to mention that same RDMBS I can access onworkspace through BQY. I'll be very thankful if somebody could help me out of this. Chandra

I got this error but I was working with SQL Server. The way to fix this was getting the latest JDBC drivers for SQL Server (or in your case Oracle) and adding them to the classpath.You will have to add it the the application server classpath as well since adding to the classpath on the server isnt enough.Hope this helps

Output from Web Analysis Related Content will not Export to Excel

I have Web Analysis reports, data in which is sourced from an EIS database. I have drill thru reports that are accessible from "Related Content". The resulting report is created fine, but cannot be exported into Excel. Specifically, I'm prompted for the location of Excel on my pc. Once I browse to it, it will open in Excel.
I have upgraded from Office 10 to Office 12, although I cannot say for certain that is when this problem started occurring.
Secondly, there are no other BI+ issues with export to Excel. For example, FR and WA export fine. The ExcelPath in the webanalysis.properties file takes care of that. I'm hoping there is something similar to update for this problem.
Thanks for reading, hopefully someone else has encountered this and successfully resolved. BI+ version is 9.3.1.

Have you tried the print button in the web analyzer it does export the input filter parameters as part of the exported PDF document.
You can include any additional text elements and use a custom export template if required.

Drill Through in Analyzer 5.0.3 Web Client

I have an EIS created Essbase cube with drill through reports. I can access the reports using the Excel add-in and via the Analyzer Windows client and they work as expected. In the Analyzer Web client, I see the LRO indicator, but when I click on the cell I get "Cell ___ cannot be drilled on". Does the Web client support drill through, and is there additional configuration necessary to make it work?Thanks,Jim Burnham

I didn't have the Essbase setting of "Use Grid API" turned on for the user I was testing with.Jim

Accessing drill through results with Analyzer API

So here is the scenario that my client is faced with: We've got a financial Analyzer report in which the users candrill down to a list of specific level 0 invoice numbers. Fromthere, we setup a relational drill through such that when theyreach a level 0 member, they can perform a relational drill throughand retrieve specific invoice details. What we want to do now is tohave a button which will launch our web based invoice viewersoftware (powervision) and display the specific invoice returned bythe relational drill through. Does anybody know if it is possible for the Analyzer API toretrieve the values from a relational drill through? IE: When theresults are returned to the screen, they are obviously returned ina grid form. Ideally, I would like to get the contents of a coupleof specific cells which I can then pass through to powervision andlaunch the software. Unfortunatley, I havn't been able to get ananswer yet from Hyperion Support. Note that when I try to use the API to access the contents ofthe drill through, I get the error "No current report".We are currently using Analyzer 7.2.1, but are willing to roll backto an earlier version if it means that we solve this problem. THanks, Matt

We did similar to this in the past in a different way. We created a crystal report with the detail level and while selecting the drill through option (on right click on spreadsheet grid) it takes you to crystal reports and opens up a spreadsheet with all the details. i.e on right click drill through option, it calls another web uRL which redirects to crystal interface and a stored procedure is run with parameters passed from Analyzer grid selected cell. And the results are opened up in a spreadsheet.

Date format issue in Web Analysis...

Hi,
I am creating a report by connecting to a couple of relational tables. I'm using SQL Spreadsheet and SQL Subscription objects. I'm creating a Date filter using SQL Subscription object (list box) using the data source created by the SQL Spreadsheet. My database default date format is 'DD-MON-YYYY'. But in the list box it shows as 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SI". When this value is selected, I get a "Literal mismatch error" since it doesn't match with the value stored in the database.
Why the format in WA is showing in this format even though it is fetchting it from my database in which the format is 'DD-MON-YYYY'. Is this related to WA date format settings? I cannot find anywhere in WA studio where I can set date formats. Is this something to be set in the server or webanalysis.properties file?
PS: I tried to work around this by storing the date value as character in the database but then I am not able to sort them ascending or descending order.I also tried creating the web analysis relational database connection which creates a virtual cube. But even there when I build the report using Data Source Navigator, it is showing date in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SI'.

Hi,
Let me provide you the details of the report.
A concurrent program has been created with executable as XDODTEXE (XML publisher report).
In the data definition, we have embed one query which fetches transaction date and due date from some tables based on some conditions.
Now, we have to show these date columns in report output which will be in EXCEL format.
We want these date outputs to be printed in dd/mm/yyyy format. That is the reason we had given-
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE (SUBSTR(transaction_date,1,10), 'DD/MON/RRRR'),'DD/MM/RRRR') in the SQL query.
Problem in output is- In date columns, data after 12th is fine i.e. in format dd/mm/yyyy, it is printing properly.
But before 12th, it is printing in format mm/dd/yyyy as mentioned below-
01/10/2012--wrong format, it should be 10/01/2012
01/11/2012--wrong format, it should be 11/01/2012
01/12/2012--wrong format, it should be 12/01/2012
13/01/2012--correct format (dd/mm/yyyy)
14/01/2012--correct format (dd/mm/yyyy)
How can i send you the attachment, is there any way/any email id?

Hyperion web analysis reports: Error defining Drill through connections.

Hi
we are facing problems while defining Drill through connections.
I am trying to define Drill through connection for oracle but i am unable to define.
I am having pracle client in my system and getting error: Getting connection failed.
In details: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
DB connection string: jdbc:oracle:thin:@HOST-NAME:1521:ORCL
Here i have entered IP address in HOST-NAME and service name in ORCL.
Do we need to do anything(prerequisites) before define Drill through ?
Please help me on this.
Nagesh.

Hi,
1. First check whether jdbc driver(ojdbc14.jar) file is present into "C:\Hyperion\BIPlus\InstallableApps\WebAnalysis _war\WEB-INF\lib" folder.
OR
C:\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\WebAnalysis\webapps\WebAnalysis\WEB-INF\lib (any one of these depends upon the class u assigned)
Plz check the classpath as well.
if ojdbc14.jar file is not present in any of these path, place it there.
2. Java is case sensitive, SO ur server name should be in CAPS. (First, try to connect to Relational DB thru New-->DBconnection-->Relational)
Plz let me know if u still have any issue.
Best of luck

Unable to open web analysis reports through workspace

Hi,
I am connecting web analysis with MSSQL server 2000 and generating reports. I am using essbase 9.3.1 version.
But my problem now is that I can just open these reports from web analysis studio and cannot open them from workspace. In workspace, if I right click on the report and open it from web analysis studio it does open. But it does not open by double clicking the report in workspace. It just shows a blank report on just parts of the report.
The issue is only there for the reports that are getting data from relational db (MSSQL server 2000). The other reports that are using the cube data are fine and opening from everywhere.
Are there any other configuration settings involved in order to open a web analysis report(that uses relational db) from workspace?
Thanks in advance,
John

Hi Atul,
Try using the in built config checker:
http://localhost:16000/WebAnalysis/config
This has several tests you can perform to see what's running.

Web Analysis does not drill down (Essbase datasource)

Hi!
I have a web analysis document which does not drill down to next level when double clicking on a parent level. In my report I have children of Area dimension selected individually and their parent on rows ( this means I have not used selection where I select only top member and its children; this is because one of the children should not be in the report). This is not an security issue, because I have admin rights to the essbase cube.
Usually when double-clicking on a member in report it should drill down to next level. This report does not drill down.
The strange thing is that if I select "Keep Only" for the top member of that dimension and then double-click it then drills down nicely???
When using a excel add-in and retrieving data there the same kind of report drills down without problems. Any ideas why this drill down does not work properly in Workspace (and also in Web Analysis Stuidio) ?
kind regards,
user637777

Hi!
I checked out the dimension in question. It seems to have implied shares (parent having only one child). There seems to be implied shares in almost all child hierarchies which might explain the web analysis behaviour.
We are using V11. The application is an aggregate storage application.

Disable Drill options only for one dimension of Web Analysis report

Hi,
Please help me on below issue.
I created a web analysis report with 3 dimensions Accounts, MRC and Measure. I have to disable drill down and drill up options only for Measure. Accounts and MRC should be drillable where as Measure should show the selected member as static and not drillable.
Thanks

Hi Swetha,
You must've realized that- Even if you select only the desired members, you end up being able to drill-down unwanted members. Correct ? :)
The only way, I believe, is- To create a users' group at your Data source side, perhaps, Essbase & provision this new group with a Metaread filter which prevents him/her from Drilling down to the leaf node.
PS: Giving Read access might also let the user not see the data for children. But, if you want to hide the members also, Metaread+ is the way to go.

Drill Down and Drill UP on Web Analysis Report

Hi all,
I have a question regarding Drill down and Drill up on Web Analysis Report.
The situation is the following:
I've created a report with some account parent elements in row. The dimension account has a multiple hierarchy.
I need to drill down on the child of these elements keeping the parente on top and so i've selected the option "Selected Member First".
The drill down it's ok for the first drill to go on the next level but when i drill down once more to go on the next level of the selected member hierarchy the drill move this level out hierarchy.
Can someone help me on this point?
After that i've drilled just to the last level when i drill up on these elements to return on the previous level i note that in the report happens a strange thing:
The Drill Up works fine but on the report appears another elements which is the same parent with anothe code/alias of another hierarchy instead of the Selected member.
On this i've noted tha this 2 different parente have the same elements...I think that the children of the selected memeber can be shared members....Can be this the problem?
Thanks for the help.
Best Regards
Eugenio Gualtieri

Hi John,
thanks for your answer.
I've trayed to set the report on Smart View to virify tou test your advise.
The situatio is the following:
IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
702000 - VEND. DI SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
702010 - RETTIFICHE VENDITE SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
W10004 - RICAVI PUBBL ICITA' ATTIVA (Q.EDIT) INTE
W10007 - RICAVI DA SPAZIO PUBBL. INTERASA
W10029 - RETTIFICA RICAVI PUBBL. INTERASA
ED05101010-PUBBLICITA'
702000 - VEND. DI SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
702010 - RETTIFICHE VENDITE SPAZIO PUBBLICITARIO
W10004 - RICAVI PUBBL ICITA' ATTIVA (Q.EDIT) INTE
W10007 - RICAVI DA SPAZIO PUBBL. INTERASA
W10029 - RETTIFICA RICAVI PUBBL. INTERASA
If I take only one parent member the drill up works fine but if i take all 2 memeber as above and i decide to drill up on one of the two element occur that the drill work for the two elements at the same time.
Afetr the drill in this case the situation is:
IS05101010-PUBBLICITA'
ED05101010-PUBBLICITA'
Can be a problem due to shared memebers?
Thanks for your help.

Mysql connectivity through web analysis

Hi ,
I hv added "mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-bin" @
C:\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\WebAnalysis\webapps\WebAnalysis\WEB-INF\lib
bt I am nt getting any mysql driver option in the web analysis, I wanna work with the mysql data please throw some light .
thanks
kishore

Hi kishore,
You can not use the Mysql in webanalysis as a datasource. WebAnalysis supports only following datasources-
1)Relational db(Oracle, SQL server, DB2,Teradata)
2) Essbase/Planning
3) HFM
4) SSAS (Micrsosoft product)
5) SAP BW
Hope it will help you.
Thanks & Regards,

Web Analysis Reports using a Relational Database

I would like to create a Web Analysis report using data from an Oracle database. From Web Analysis, I try to create a new database connection. I select Oracle as the Driver type. In the Database Connection String field, I replace {HOST-NAME} with the Host information from the TNSNAMES.ORA file. I've confirmed the Port number is correct. When I test the connection, it fails. What am I missing? The format of the Database Connection String that is defaulting into the field is:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@{HOST-NAME}:1521:ORCL
Is there anything else I need to include besides the Host name and Port number, for example, do I need to include the SID?
Thanks.
Terri T.

The ojdbc14.jar currently exists in the following directories:
bea\weblogic81\server\lib
oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\920
There is a ojdbc14_g.jar that exists in:
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\10g
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\920
The classes12.jar file exists in:
oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\oui\jlib
So from your response, I assume I need to copy classes12.jar to a directory under bea\weblogic81?
Thanks.
