hi,
check the writeback xml code,there might be some syntactical errors and column numbers in the insert/update statements.You should check the enable writeback check box for all the columns which you used in the writeback template.
mark if helpful/correct..

  • Write Back from OBIEE 11g to multiple tables in DB

    Hi All,
    We have requirement to write-back from OBIEE 11g to multiple tables in DB.
    1) Inserting a new row in report. Inserting record into multiple tables through OBIEE?
    2) In report we have fields like Region Id, Product Id, Date, Quantity. Region Id, Product Id, Date are dimension fields and Quantity is Fact measure while inserting row in report does OBIEE checks Refrential Integrity Constraint during Write Back on DB.
    Let me know if you need more details on this. Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Rajkumar.

    Hi,
    1) With regard to inserts into multiple tables, try using multiple insert tags (I haven't tried it) but I think it should work.
    2) I don't think OBIEE would check referential integrity , but DB would and give you appropriate response.
    Let us know how you got on...
    Thanks & Regards

    Guys,
    In OBIEE 11g You need to make sure that you mark the logical columns in your Repository RPD as "Writeable". Otherwise the ability to write to these columns is not allowed for WriteBack functionality.

  • Write Back Error OBIEE 11g

    I am facing the following error massege in writeback funtionality.
    I checked the value ,connection pool,writable,read/write permissions but not resolved the issue.
    "An error occurred while writing to the server. Please check to make sure you have entered appropriate values. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator."
    Any help about that ?

    Hi,
    http://satyaobieesolutions.blogspot.in/2013/03/write-back.html -- recheck your configuration following this link step by step with screen shots.
    http://satyaobieesolutions.blogspot.in/2012/06/obiee-10g11g-writeback-capabilities.html
    http://satyaobieesolutions.blogspot.in/2012/06/excel-data-source-writeback-in-obiee.html Note : The Problem Occurred two ways,
    1. Problem your XMl Script
    2. If null value not present in your columns in your table in database.The ; problem has occured.
    please check below steps.
    1. Are you using OCI or ODBC in your connection pool? Try it with OCI Call Interface 11g.
    2.Remove the commit tag from the XML file.
    <postUpdate>COMMIT</postUpdate>
    =============================================================================================================
    This xml file working for me.
    Insert--
    A couple of small adjustments got your XML to work here:
    <?xml version="1.0"; encoding="utf-8"?>
    <WebMessageTables xmlns:sawm="com.siebel.analytics.web/message/v1";>
    <WebMessageTable lang="en-us" system="WriteBack" table="Messages">
    <WebMessage name="WriteBack">
    <XML>
    <writeBack connectionPool="Connection Pool">
    <insert> INSERT INTO FACT (PRICE,PRODUCT_KEY,REGION_KEY,SALE_UNIT,TIMEKEY,SALES_QUOTA)
    values (@{c7},@{c8},@{c9},@{c10},@{c11},@{c5} ) </insert>
    <update> </update>
    </writeBack>
    </XML>
    </WebMessage>
    </WebMessageTable>
    </WebMessageTables>
    The <writeBack> tag is written with a lower case "w".
    The "connetionPool" needs an upper case "P".
    Update--
    I think that you have to specify also an SQL statement for the update tag, for example:
    <?xml version="1.0"; encoding="utf-8"?>
    <WebMessageTables xmlns:sawm="com.siebel.analytics.web/message/v1";>
    <WebMessageTable lang="en-us" system="WriteBack" table="Messages">
    <WebMessage name="pmet_update">
    <XML>
    <writeBack connectionPool="PMTCOG">
    <insert> select null from dual</insert>
    <update> UPDATE XREF_PMET_URL SET URL= '@{c1}' WHERE API='@{c0}'</update>
    </writeBack>
    </XML>
    </WebMessage>
    </WebMessageTable>
    </WebMessageTables>
    The witeback wants for both the tags (<insert></insert> and <update></update>) an SQL Statement.
    Hope this help's

  • Write Back feature in 11g environment

    Hi,
    I am trying to implement write back feature in 11g environment.
    i have configured RPD as mentioned below-
    in physical layer- non cacheable,
    in BMM- enable write back checkbox,
    in Presentation layer read/write property for field,
    in report i have checked write back box for column.
    I have created xml file for the column to be edited.
    But i am not able to locate where i need to mention this xml file name.
    Please let me know where i need to mention the xml file name and where i need to place the file.

    Can you confirm that you have done ALL of the following:
    -Make sure you use columnIDs as opposed to column position in the XML template
    -Use Schema prefix on the table column
    -Ensure WebMessage name on XML template matches the EXACT name in Table View Properties
    -Ensure Physical table is non cacheable
    -Presentation and Logical layer must have Write enabled for the writeback columns
    -If we dont need an INPUT command make sure to have a space between the XML tags
    I dont have access to a writeback file currently..if you can paste yours here, maybe we can help.
    Also, if the responses are helpful, please mark them as helpful or correct.

  • Write back from OBIEE into Essbase

    Hi everyone,
    Questions about write back from OBIEE (11.1.1.7) into Essbase (EPM 11.1.2.3).
    First of all, did anyone manage to do it ?
    Secondly, what are the constraints ? (number of cells updated limited, only level 0 of the Essbase database can be updated, only existing data can be updated or things like that ?)
    Thirdly, what are the best practices regarding OBIEE or Essbase security when we implement write back  ?
    Thanks for answers

    Hi,
    writing to Essbase from OBIEE exist for many years...
    In the past it was doing via a JSP page but since last year it's supported directly with a simple UPDATE statement.
    Have a look at SampleApp 406 (current version), in the Essbase examples there is also the write back using the UPDATE statement.
    Just keep in mind one thing: OBIEE is not supposed to be an entry form for Essbase or any other system, it can be used for editing values so you can dynamically change params for what-if calculations (running a calc script after updating a value) and that kind of things.

  • Write back - how OBIEE decides  insert or update action ?

    Hello
    I have a question regarding write-back.
    I have both an insert and update statement in my template file.
    I want to give the users ability to insert new rows and update existing ones.
    I am able to do both, but sometimes the insert/update behavior is not consistent. That is, instead of updating the record, it creates a new row itself in the database (and sometimes the reverse also is true).
    Anyone has ideas on how OBIEE decides whether it is an insert or update action?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    I have implemented writeback in Obiee 10g version
    It's working fine
    Please refer my correct code
    3)      Add XML File to this path  C:\OracleBI\web\msgdb\customMessages\WriteBack.xml  and
    C:\OracleBIData\web\msgdb\WriteBack .xml   path.
    File Name: WriteBack.xml
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    Note: It’s all are case sensitive and red lined letters are give as above. After that restart all the OBIEE Server (Java Host, OC4J, BI Server etc.)

  • 11g write-back drop down box

    Hi, I have enabled write back in OBIEE 11g dashboard. I would like to know if it is possible to create a drop down box within the write-back enabled column?

    I realize this is a very old thread, but I was hoping there was a way to do this.
    I would like to enable write-back to an a table we use to track running processes. I would like to be able to update the status to either 'COMPLETE' or 'INCOMPLETE'. The programs can change theses statuses to anything meaningful, but I only want those two values as options for write-back.
    Is this even possible?

  • Write Back - Change size of displayed textbox

    Hi
    I'm using write back in OBIEE 10. As I know we can define the size of the input box in means that no one is able to add more text than allowed. But even if I allow 2000 characters the text box is shown as a single line input box.
    Is there a possibility to change the size of the displayed text box especially to allow more than a single line?
    Thank you

    Hey,
    You will somehow need to hack the OBI CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) when the the writeback (table view) is present so that instead of a textbox HTML element, it displays a TEXTAREA HTML element. There is currently no other way to achieve this.
    You can read more about HTML input types here,
    http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp
    and
    play with an example of a TEXTAREA HTML element here, http://www.w3schools.com/html/showit.asp?filename=tryhtml_textarea

  • Validating Write Back values

    Hello all,
    I have successful write back on OBI 11g. But the problem is the user needs validation on the input...some javascript?
    1. Can we have validation on the field length .. say if the field width is more than 20 CHAR... some warning..
    2. ALL Caps..?
    3. checking invalid characters...
    Please let me know your inputs on this..
    Thanks a lot in advance..
    Regards,
    Kiran

    Thanks.. but.. if we write DB trigger..
    if any error/warning comes.. will the OBI will be able to show that.. or just it says.."A error occured while writing to the server.......bla bla bla".?
    Generally, this will be the default error message for any...
    May be i can try that also but... DB triggers also imapct performance...
    Can there be some Javascript or something where we can do client validation rather DB???
    Thanks
