• Hour/Min column in the Time Dimension

  Please can someone help me with the script to fill in the time Dimension Table that contains a column of hours/min. Here's my Time_D structure:
  
  Year
  Quarter
  Month
  Name of the month
  Week
  Day
  Hour
  Min
  
  Also is it a good practice to have the hour/Min column in the time Dimension?
  
  
  Thanks in advance.

  B,
  Sorry if I confused things a bit...
  I wanted to say in the MDB layer, you can model a dimension table (time) with the path complete drill (year-> quarter-> month-> day-> hour-> Min)
  This a logical table would have two sources of logical table to map required fields of your two tables of phyiscal (Date_Dim and Time_Dim)
  You must define the levels of content accordingly for each logical table source, so the user in responses can perfectly break of the year all the way up to Min, their sound a single dimension, actually its two tables and the BI server switches according to the levels of content in the LTS.

  Sorted?
  Let us know if you get the probs.

• Add the quarter to the time dimension

  Hello
  
  We have created a time dimension using the owb wizzard, but did not include the quarter level. Is it possible to add it to the dimension later without deleting a re-creation of the entire dimension?
  A new time dimension would probably be corrupt all the cubes (data and metadata), so I would avoid that.
  Any ideas?
  
  See you soon,.

  Hi Knut

  Yep, should be possible.

  Change the dimension and select the quarter level in the levels Panel, and then click quarter in hierarchies pane to add it to the hierarchy. You can then delete the link and autobind on details for the physical links to the underlying table. On the hierarchies pane, there is a button "Create map" that will regenerate the mapping to load the time dimension.

• How to create the time dimension?

  Hi friends...
  I'm working on OBIEE since the last 2 months.
  I created a few reports; I don't have the time dimensions in the layer of MDB.
  
  Now, I need to give a few zoom feature in my reports. Almost all of the reports have the time factor.
  As year, month, and day. can I still create the time dimension based on the exercise.
  (1) what is - that I think give the zoom feature in the reports.
  (2) can we have multiple time dimensions in the MDB layer?
  
  
  Thank you very much in advance.

  Toony,

  You can create a time dimension based on the fiscal year, and you can have many dimensions of time within a business model. There is a lot of documentation, of messages and articles about dimensions. If you haven't already done so, check out page 126 of the Server Management Guide and read this article. That should at least help you get started on building your time dimension.

• Best practices for the Time Dimension

  I'm a new contour design. I need to set up a time for daily dimension, perpetually. In the past I would set up a member years i.e. 2010, 2011, 2012... and a second dimension with the days i.e. Jan 01, 02 Jan.
  
  Is there a better way than that? I would like if possible do so in only one dimension.

  Have you looked at the Date-Time dimension? It's ASO-only, but has a ton of features:
  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E12825_01/EPM.111/eashelp/frameset.htm?sel_cal_hier.htm

  He put everything in a single dimension, btw. I've seen similar dimensions in cubes BSO stored in sparse form. Shudder.

  Kind regards

• Modifying the time dimension - the shift cuts

  Hello
  
  By default the period dimension is composed of 19 members stored (12 months, 4 quarters, YearTotal BegBalance and exercise). Is it possible to remove the quarters so the size of the block on my application will become smaller and have only the YearTotal > hierarchy of the month?
  
  Thank you

  Minimum block size if the period is dense and a difference very little time to retrieve time for these members, because they will be calculated on the fly.
  Normally most of the Parents members of dense accounts and Dimension of the period is marked as dynamic Calc.

• 1 h period and the time dimension

  Hi all
  
  1. I'm new to OWB and I was wondering is it possible to force the default time dimension (done using Wizard) to have some 'small' level then a day (say, 1 h)?
  If this is not the case, have you tried to manually update the dimension and mapping?
  Or it is better to leave default dimension and start with my own time dim?
  
  2. What is the difference between the dimension created as the dimension "time" and with a similar but defined content as typicall dim? (issues / analysis performance)?
  
  Thanks in advance.
  See you soon,.
  B

  Hello

  OWB can create dimensions date to the level of the day.
  You can use this dimension as a source of a map of your own to create a time dimension to the level of the time (enclose it with values of 1-24).

  Have you considered using a date on the day level dimension and a second dimesion of time containing only 1-24 hours?

  With the help of the wizard makes living easier, but there is no advantage in terms of performance in relation to a normal size. Be sure to add all the clues you need.

  Kind regards
  Carsten.

• Problem in making a chart with the time Dimension

  Hello experts! I have a problem with a specific chart.
  
  I have a quick TIME in my dashboard page: format: 09/07/2010
  
  Now I have to make a graph in LINE with two lines (actual, previous) and X axis is a week that belongs to this day in my message of General solicitation.
  
  My problem is that I see in my dashboard page two weeks: week 2009 containing a line (last year) and week 2010 which has another line (actual year).
  
  I would like to see a week with two lines together
  
  I have two measures in my report (actual and previous measure-> logical formula with AGO of my oracle administration)
  
  
  Any solution?

• display the time dimension members

  Hello
  
  We have implemented beginning period Jan and end of period of Mar for real member of the scenario.
  
  in the form of planning, we want to show that these three periods but we see all periods / other periods are read-only.
  
  Thanks for help

  How about using essbase substitution variables, for example actPeriod1 defined as Jan, actPeriod2, defined as the Feb, actPeriod3 defined as Mar and do the same thing for months of forecasts.
  Then put these substitution variables, as in the form instead of the month.
  Then when the change of months, you can simply change the substitution variables and you won't have to touch the forms, evolution of the substitution variables can be scripted with maxl and group upward and demand.

• Time Dimension type to different values in the attributes - Bug or feature?

  Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.
  
  But if there is a time dimension hierarchies. You have the option of specifying different values for member attributes in different hierarchies.
  
  For example.
  
  A hierarchy has MIN_ID for its members and uses MIN_END_DATE for its end_date
  
  Hierarchy B has MIN_ID for its members and uses SESS_END_DATE for its end_date
  
  According to this message and a comment by David Greenfield:
  
  Gender issue when several mappings for different hierarchies
  
  "You try to map the same attribute, SORT, on different columns in two hierarchies? In other words, what do you expect the same Member to have different values for the attribute in the two different hierarchies? If so, then this is a problem because a member must have the same value for the attribute independently of the hierarchy. »
  
  Unlike a dimension of the user, a time dimension seems to allow this and it seems to work as expected. Behavior in this case is the difference between a user and the time dimension?

  Your description of the structure of the dimension is very clear, but I have a question about system requirements. When you say you want to the time running from 17:00 to 16:59, do you mean that the calculation must spand day? for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" to "4:59 PM: 2 Jan 2012".» If so, then this you is impossible by making a loop only the dimension of time-seconds. Or do you really mean it must wrap around the same day. for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" at "11:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012", then again to "00:00 AM: 1 Jan 2012" to "4:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012"?»»»

  If you want the calculation for the period of days, then I think you need to spend TIME on the DATE dimension level. You can leave some MINUTES in the second dimension, which can be a dimension of standard user. You must then two levels of the DAY (with different members) in the date dimension - each with a different set of the child. You can assign the TIME_SPAN to the TIME level 1.

• Time Dimension table

  Hello

  I have a requirement where I need to calculate the value of average purchase order based on the month. The problem I have here is that the custom time Dimension table that I have in my RPD has dates only until 2011 and not beyond. I downloaded this table via BI tutorials oracle schema EXAMPLE.

  I've looked everywhere on the internet for a time dimension table, but I'm unable to find it. Can someone please help me find a way to insert the time dimension table?

  Thank you

  Nicole Shepherd

  Hi Anthony,.

  You can change the SQL code to insert new rows into your table.

  Example:

  INSERT INTO your_table (your_field)

  SELECT TO_DATE('31/12/2010','DD/MM/YYYY') + NUMTODSINTERVAL (n, 'day') AS Full_Date

  FROM (SELECT level n FROM dual connect by level)<>

  The foregoing will insert lines starting at 01/01/2011 and until the 01/01/2011 + 4000 days (over 10 years).

  Of course, you must extend the code to calculate all the fields in your time dimension.

• Time dimension

  I have the CSV file as a data source. I've created tables to CSV files and then them modeled in SPR and then created time on that dimension. But the time dimension does not work. Is it because the data source is a CSV file?

  Any help appreciated

  Where is their total content large?

  

  This one is from SampleApp, as you can see there is a "time Total" and it is reported as "grand total" (a box set).

  So maybe just remove your and build it yet keeping the grand total and rename the level of detail of the "year".

  Add your unique column it and set it as the key level (and also key chronological).

• error in creating time dimension OLAP in ORDM

  HI Experts

  I am trying to update the data in olap time dimension that is based in ORDM of MV and I get the error message "path of aggregation for the hierarchies of a dimension 'TIME' is incompatible," Please suggest what is at stake / soln.

  Thank you

  Prateek

  Hi David,

  Please check your hierarchies for consistency.  Because it seems that the TIME dimension is selected for the updating of the MV, the hierarchies must be consistent star.

  This means that the hierarchies must be consistent with each other in regard to members and stars according to the subject at a level.

  Compatible with each other.

  "If a dimension member appears in several hierarchies, then his descendants playing to the level of detail are exactly the same in each hierarchy." For example, if Quarter_1 consists of January, February and March at the level of detail in the Calendar hierarchy, Quarter_1 cannot be July, August and September in the Fiscal hierarchy.

  However, the members of a hierarchy can have different parents in other hierarchies. For example, these customer hierarchies are compatible if the 'Total' Member all members at the SHIP_TO level in deliveries and market Segment. »

  -helps AWM on the Details of the implementation of the Panel properties of Dimension tab

  Consistent stars with each other = in addition to being consistent with each other, such as defined above,

  "If a parent has children at the same level in multiple hierarchies, these children must be identical. For example, suppose an a H1 and H2 hierarchies dimension and level L3 appears in both entities. If X parent has children, C1, C2 and C3 at the L3 level in hierarchy H1, X also children a C1, C2 and C3 to the L3 level in hierarchy H2.

  Following customer hierarchies are consistent star only if two hierarchies, REGION has the same members (for example, Americas, Europe, Pacific), rolling among the SHIP_TO members themselves.

  TOTAL

  REGION

  WAREHOUSE

  SHIP_TO

  Hierarchy of the country:

• How to put in the time series dynamics in the planning application

  Dear all,
  
  I'm having a problem by implementing a series of time Dynamics (A-T-J). I put in place at the level of the generation 4. In our application, the time dimension hierarchy is as follows.
  
  Yeartotal-> HY1-> Q1-> Jan, Feb, Mar
  
  Consider the following example
  
  Jan-> 100
  Feb-> 200
  Mar-> 300
  
  If I want to recover "A-T-J February" the result should see me the sum of Jan and Feb in this case, it should be 300. What is the syntax of recovery CDA in smartview.
  In our dimension of 'Year' application name is 'year '. How can I rename the name of this dimension in the case of the requirement.
