Passing list prompt to InList function

$

0

Hi,

 

I have two queries - qry_1 brings back all brands; qry_2 brings back brands via a list prompt to select the key brands

 

qry_1 result:

brand 1

brand 2

brand 3

brand 4

 

qry_2 prompt: Select Key Brands

qry_2 result

brand 2

brand 4

 

Within the report I have merged the brands, I want to display the values for the key brands and roll up the other brands into "Other" e.g.

 

brand 2...

brand 4...

Other...

 

I have tried to do this with a variable with the following code:

 

=IF(brand InList(UserResponse("Select Key Brands"));brand;"Other") - however, the value returned by UserResponse is not suitable for passing into a list.

 

Does anybody know a workaround for this at all?

 

Many thanks

BO 4.1: conflict restricted key figures and BEx variables

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

We are experiencing an issue in our BO system, recently upgraded to BO 4.1 SP03.

Our reports are built over BEx Queries (OLAP connections).  In some queries there are restricted key figures restricted by an specific Char, and also, in the same Query, that Char is in filter variable.

For example:

RKF1: Net Value restricted by Char Functional Area = 1

RKF2: Net Value restricted by Char Functional Area = 2

RKF3: Net Value restricted by Char Functional Area = 3

Selection screen:

Variable Functional Area.

 

If I run the Query and in the Variable I select Func. Area = 3, then RKF1 and RKF2 display 0, and RKF3 shows values.  I mean, Query BEx is working fine.

 

However, BO is not understanding the Variable, and is always taking into consideration the Char value included in the RKF.

For example:

If I run the BO report and in the Variable I select Func. Area = 3, all the three RKF show values.

 

 

We were using BO 4.0 SP5 previous month and it was working fine, it's happening since we upgraded our BO system.

 

Do you know how to solve this?

 

Thanks

If any one knows how to give link in cross tab to a single column from bucket variable please help

Ned help in BO3.1 line graphs

Hi,

 

I need help developing a line graph in BO 3.1 webi version. I need to show the timestamps (Start-time and End-time) of the jobs run on a particular day in the form of 2 lines on the graph.

 

However, I am facing issue with the format of the timestamps data. They are currently in (HH:mm:ss AM/PM) format. As you know the line graphs expects a measure on Y-axis,  I am facing issues to covert the time stamps objects to measure both in universe and Webi.

 

The database is Oracle.

 

Any inputs on how to do a work around is really appreciated.

 

Thanks,

BI 4.1 upgrade

Hi ,

 

We have done an in place upgrade from  BI 4.0 SP2  to BI 4.1 SP5, we are  facing below issue on Webi.

 

In the existing webi report, the mandatory prompts from Bex are populated with values are disabled using the set variable option on Webi query panel.

 

After migration, if we go to the set variable option, The option “use bex query defined default values at run time” is ticked & Set as prompt is ticked for all the variables, including the one which is disabled on BI4.0.

 

The set variable are not hidden on the initial refresh, but the subsequent refresh the set variable got hidden. I understand this is due to the difference on the workflow followed for the  Bex -> Webi between 4.0 & 4.1. The first refresh creates the transient universe then the set variables are enabled. It looks like we need to open up each report refresh and save so that the trasient unvierse will be created.

 

Is there any option/tool to update the Webi document metadata in one shot along with the upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1.

 

Thanks

Jino.

Hi Experts,

 

I am trying to create a report in WEBI Where I have 3 columns

1)Date

2)Amount

3)12 months rolling amount

Date object I have formatted it in the universe to get the MON-YYYY, So that I can the data by months, And its working correctly.

In the report I am getting data like this.

Date      Amount     

Jan-2008     5000

Feb-2008     6000

Mar-2008     8700

Apr-2008     5500

I want another column for 12 month rolling amount which show the data from for last one year.

example : Jan-2008 for 12MonthRolling Amount column I should get the total of Jan-2007 to Dec-2007

          Feb-2008 for 12MonthRolling Amount column I should get the total of Feb-2007 to Feb-2007

User will be having the prompt to select the end Date

I have created the Measure for 12 month rolling amount to select the last 12 month total based upon the prompt.

 

 

Please suggest me if you get any idea on this requirement.

Its very urgent...

Counting returning customers

$

Hello everybody.

 

I am trying to work out how to count returning customers from the previous year for a report i'm currently writing and i'm really struggling.  The data is part of a BEX and I have 2 objects, first is the account reference number and the second is the year.  Account reference number lists all of the unique accounts that we have dealt with against the year, so if account number 000001 purchased stuff in 2013 and 2015, but not 2014, then the account number will only show up in Year 13 and 15.

 

Account refYear
00000113
00000115
00000214
00000313
00000314
00000413
00000414
00000415
00000513
00000514
00000515
00000615

 

 

The idea is to create a small summary table, whereby it provides a count of the number of customers that have purchased stuff from us in Year 13 and Year 14 or a count of the customers that have purchased items from us in Year 14 and 15.

 

So based off the sample table above, the report would look like -

YearRetained Customers
130
143
15

How to use If then Else with String and Number object type

$

Hi Expert,

 

Need your advice!

 

I need to implement one condition @ report level, When Contract Type = “OWNED PROPERTY” then “Remaining Lease” = “$0” need to print.

 

Formula used for both columns as of now -

Contract Type =If(IsNull([Query 1].[Lease Number]); "OWNED PROPERTY" ;"LEASED PROPERTY")

Contract Type = “String”

 

Remaining Lease =Max([Query 1].[Remaining Lease Obligation])

Remaining Lease = “Number type”

 

I have created two variables (1) [# Contract Type] and used the same formula to use this variable for new condition @ report level and (2) as [# Remaning Lease] and used same formula.

 

Now, when I am trying to use below formula at column (Remaining Lease Obligation), I am not able to parse it.

 

=If([# Contract Type] = "OWNED PROPERTY";[# Remaning Lease] ="0";[# Remaning Lease])

 

Please suggest what formula need to use ?

 

Thanks

Problem with "New Rule" button disappearing for Conditional Formatting

$

0

I created a Business Objects (Version: 14.1.4.1327) report and when I began applying formatting to that document, I clicked on the New Rule button to apply conditional formatting. My browser locked up and when I went back into the report after restarting the browser, the New Rule button is no longer there.

 

  1. Any ideas for why the New Rule button disappears and how I can get it back?

 

This is not the first time I've had to re-create the report to "get" the New Rule button back, only to have it disappear again.

 

This seems to be report specific (and not role based, nor Java based), as I can create a completely new report and the New Rule button appears in that report (I just need it to stop disappearing or a way to easily make it re-appear without re-creating the report).

 

Any thoughts would be great.

 

Thanks!

Getlocalized Function in Webi using translation manager

Hi,

 

I created Webi report in version 4.1 patch 3. The data source of this report is BEx. I need to translate this report into French using translation manager in BOBJ. In BEx I created structure in rows. Login in BEx with French language and changed the description in French. login in Webi and using getlocalized functionality with all object which I need to be translate in French. this report have tables there I used formulas in each cell to calculate values based on structure values.

for example :

1) =Round([Budget] Where ([Struct.]=getlocalized("tot. Salaries & Operating Exp"))/1000;3)

 

Import the report in translation Manager and write the "tot. Salaries  & operating Exp" in French and export it.

When I run the report in French all objects like report name, title, columns are come in French but the all cells in the tables are blank.

I run the report in English version and tables are populated. its look like translation manager did not translate the objects where I used to calculation using getlocalized functionalities.

 

Please help me to fix this problem.

 

Thanks 

Problem with a report for comparing row by row

$
0
0

Hi Experts,

 

I hope that you can help me to solve my problem.

 

Relating to the topic Compare row by row, I have created a report by using the solution given. Thanks to my application (management of grants: a grant contains general information and is linked to contacts, legal references and portfolios), when an update is done, a new row is entered in the History table for the specific objects.  My purpose was to compare row by row information in order to show the updates.

 

I have used this solution in the topic previous for comparing the row on the Contacts:

  • Create a variable:

     Contacts_Ranking_values =Sum(Rank([contact person]))In([Id Hist])

  • Create another variable

     updated_contacts =If [Contacts_Ranking_values] <> Previous([Contacts_Ranking_values]) Then "UPDATED" Else "NO UPDATE"

  • Create another variable

     Contacts_Final_Output = Max([updated_contacts])In([Id Hist])

  • Drag Contacts_Final_output to the table

 

Thus the desired output is ok. Nevertheless in order to filter for displaying only the "UPDATED" rows I had to create another dimension

dim_updated Contacts = if [Contacts_Final_Output] = "UPDATED" then "UPDATED" else "NO UPDATE".

 

I obtain this report:

Contact.PNG

It's perfect. I have created a new report in the same document in order to do the same for legal reference:

LegRef.PNG

And it's perfect working.

I have equally do the same for portfolio. But I have adapted the variables, because a portfolio can have a value:

  • Portfolios_Ranking_values = Sum(Rank([Value Portfolio HIST]))In([Id HIST])
  • Portfolios_Ranking_Id = Sum(Rank([Id Portfolio Hist]))In([Id Hist])
  • updated_portfolios = NoFilter(If ( ([Portfolio_Ranking_values] <> Previous([Portfolio_Ranking_values])) Or ([Portfolio_Ranking_Id] <> Previous([Portfolio_Ranking_Id])) )Then "UPDATED" Else "NO UPDATE")
  • Portfolios_Final_Output = Max([updated_portfolios])In([Id Hist])
  • dim_updated Portfolio = if [Portfolios_Final_Output] = "UPDATED" then "UPDATED" else "NO UPDATE".

 

I obtain this report and it's perfect, because if the value of a portfolio has changed, or if a portfolio is added or deleted, "UPDATED" is visible:

pfo.PNG

MY PROBLEM

 

I would like now to create an overview report in the same document, in order to have a summary of the detailed reports (contact, legal reference and portfolio) like:

Capture.PNG

We can see that for contact and legal reference all is perfect, BUT for Portfolio, the value for dim_updated Portfolio is not correct when only the value of a portfolio has been updated.

Indeed if we see the id Hist 10 229 and 10 230,  "UPDATED" should be visible (the portfolios are the same, but the values have changed...). For the last row 10231,  a portfolio has been deleted and the other has a different value, but UPDATED is visible...

 

I think that the problem is due to the value (problem in "updated portfolios" variable ???).

 

I have tried to split the formula for having 2 separated treatment (updated_portfolios_id, updated_portfolios_value and Portfolios_Id_Final_Output, Portfolios_Values_Final_Output ), but the display for the value is still incorrect when the value of a portfolio change:

Capture2.PNG

 

Thus the problem comes from the dimension variable "dim_updated Portfolio_Values".

 

Could you please help me to solve this problem?

 

Thanks
