Hello,

 

I am having a problem setting up a report in Web Intelligence and hopefully you may be able to help.

 

I want to find out whether people who start using our dervices continue to do so after a certain number of months. I have set up two queries, one which pulls through a list of all the account numbers that were created this year, whcih gives me the number of of new users.

 

The second query takes those barcodes and finds whether they have used our services within each month after they joined. Both tables have the users age in them so we can break down the results by age group.

 

I can set up tables to showe how many new joiners we have for each age group, and also a table to show how many people from each age group used our services within each month. However I can't combine the two to show how many people started an account but then didn't use our services.

 

Ideally I want a table headings laid out as:

 

Age Group     New Accounts     Active After 1 Month     Active after 2 months     Active after 3 months etc

 

 

So I can get the New accounts by age group and the active users by age group but can't combine them as I lose the information for everyone who has opened an account but no used it.

 

Any suggestions?

 

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

Webi 4.1 - Mysterious line across Chart Plot Area

Hi,

 

I designed a stacked bar chart a while ago and noticed when I click on any part of the plot area, a horizontal line is drawn across the plot area along with the data info on one of the columns.  I want to turn this feature off because it causes the mouse over data on the columns to be incorrect.

 

Is anyone familiar with this feature and how to turn it off.  I've looked at every chart option and I can't figure out which one it is.  Thanks!

 

Please see attached file for example.

SUM in Cross TAB in XI4.1 SP6

Hello All,

 

I have an issue in calculating the Sum in Cross Tab Report. Below is the same data on which I am trying to calculate Sum.

 

                                                            Variable        Amount

Class               Source      ID

 

Exchange        ABC        123               387250             387250

Exchange        ABC         321         -37363051                       0

Exchange        ABC         567             4724861          4724861

Exchange       ABC          589          -11319670                      0    

Exchange       DEF          900                         0                      0

Exchange1     TBR          950                         0                      0                   

                                         Sum        - 43570610             5112111                                          

                                       

If I calculate Sum on Amount and Variable on the above data it works without any issues

 

Variable formula is = Sum(If([Class]InList("Exchange");If([Amount]>0;[Amount];0)))

 

If I remove the ID from the report the Sum values for the Amount is getting changed to 0

 

Below is the data when I remove ID from the BO report

 

                                             Variable      Amount

Class             Source

Exchange           ABC                  0          -43570610

Exchange           DEF                  0                         0

Exchange1         TBR                  0                         0

                            Sum                0             -43570610

 

 

Even If I remove the ID from the report, I should get the values 5112111 for the object variable. Please help on how to achieve this.

 

Thanks!!

Charts of Past 6 Months

I'm sorry if this has been asked/answered before, but I couldn't find it in my searches.

 

I'm working on building a dashboard of information, and I want some of my charts to show the past 6 months (or 12 months) of data automatically. Is there any way to create a filter for the chart to do this?

 

Screen Shot 2015-07-31 at 9.45.14 AM.png

 

So for example, in this chart I would want to show Jan 15 - Jun 15. However, the green line is a 3 month average using the Previous() function, so I can't simply add a filter (also, then I would have to change the filter each month for the end user).

 

My other (somewhat related question) - Is there a way to use Max/Min or First/Last with custom sorted lists? I created the Month-Year detail myself, so when I do Max() or Last() I get SEP 14 instead of JUN 15. I was thinking that would be a way for me to look at the last x months by getting the maximum of Month-Year. I need to use some sort of calculation to summarize it to Month-Year because this is a summarization of multiple timestamps.

 

Let me know if anything doesn't make sense. I appreciate your help!

Limit rows on Top 5 ranking

$

Hi

 

I'm on BusinessObjects Webi 4.1 SP4, and want to ask if it is possible to limit the number of rows to show when ranking are the same.  For example, this is the dataset:

 

Material        Quantity Sold

Material1             30

Material2             25

Material3             25

Material4             25

Material5             25

Material6             25

Material7             25

Material8             25

Material9             15

 

I want to get the results to show Top 5 :

 

Material        Quantity Sold

Material1             30

Material2             25

Material3             25

Material4             25

Material5             25


(I honestly don't care which items are selected displayed between "Material2" to "Material 8", as long as there are 5 rows)


Right now my Webi report is showing the following with the Top 5 Ranking:


Material        Quantity Sold

Material1             30

Material2             25

Material3             25

Material4             25

Material5             25

Material6             25

Material7             25

Material8             25


Would appreciate any thoughts and suggestions, thanks!
