OBIEE - physical layer

Hello

I'm new to tool obiee.

My dimension table is composite primary keys (3 keys - suppose that the employee id, employee ssn, phone number)
and my fact table (2 key - id of the employee, the employee ssn)

so, how can we do physical to join physical layer?

Do we need to create 2 tables aliases and join my fact table?
or, something else I can use expressions in the physical... join physical diagram generator?

@ Ashish... I used the expression builder. And created joins as much as possible of the fact table dimension table. Don't you think it's the right approach?

The problem is that the BI server will always use all even if you do not want it. You MUST create aliases when you wish to join for different purposes, Deepaks example is a good thing. If you put the two joints of the same table, you would never get of fact records where the 2 dates are the same.

  • How to create the hierarchy account ESSBase in OBIEE physical layer

    After you import the EssBase cube in RPD, the hirerchy account is created not by default (others are created automatically as period, currency, year, etc.).

    In Essbase, the account dimension has 14 people.

    If I go to cube > new object > hierarchy...

    Then put the details such as the name, external, name of dimension, dimension type (other), type(fully balanced) hierarchy.

    What should I do after clicking the Add button? and how can I define the hierarchy?


    Thanks for the help.

    Hello

    Could be faster if you duplicate your cube in the physical layer, change the Essbase cube properties, and uncheck the account that the hierarchy of the measure hierarchy, it should ask to be displayed in the physical layer with all hierarchies, attributes as if it where any other. You can then copy this into your cube duplicated in your original.

  • Unable to update the number of lines in the physical layer... connection failed in OBIEE 11 g

    Hi guys,.

    I am not able to make the number of rows updated in the physical layer, I get an error message failed to connect. It comes to OBIEE 11 g Linux approx.

    I put the tnsnames.ora file in the following path:

    / * / pkgs/linux/intel/OBIEE_DIT/MW_HOME/Oracle_BI1/network/admin /.

    I have no admin under

    / * / pkgs/linux/intel/OBIEE_DIT/MW_HOME/oracle_common/network /.

    But if I enter all TNS in Data Source name, I am able to connect:

    (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = xxx.xxx.com) (PORT = 1671)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = US1OBIEE)))

    I am not able to understand the question...

    Thank you

    Amit

    It seems that the RPD is looking for local tns config... try to use as hostname: port / ServiceName

    It should work, just in case where does not! stop to do so since it is question.

    Try this

    'TABLE1 '. "' COLUMN1 ' BETWEEN 'TABLE2 '. "" COLUMN2 "AND"TABLE2 ". "" COLUMN3 ".

    This will return all the records where the value of Column1 is located between Column2 and Column3.

    I hope this helps.

  • Problem of the Essbase hierarchy in the physical layer of RPD (OBIEE 11 g).

    Hello

    I have a scenario that follows

    EssBase Ac.png


    In the screenshot above, we are not able to get the data accounts, Gen1 and Gen2, levels of accounts (taking a measure). We get level 3. Gen1, accounts which the Member 'Accounts' and Gen2 level, accounts Member "ALL_ACCOUNTS". When I combine it with measure only displaying not of any value (possibly summary data). Please let me know/possible error correction must be done as soon as possible.

    Kind regards

    Chandra Khalil.

    Are OK, if you're new to essbase you sure that you are supposed to have values of measures in gen 1 and 2 of your account dimension?

    It is a common behavior to aggregate not always things to the top of the dimension if it does not make sense from a functional point of view.

    It does not shock me for not having values for members 'Accounts' and 'ALL_ACCOUNTS' because in general you can not always aggregate accounts together.

    You can also get the products OBIEE physical query (MDX) in the same way that you get any physical motion in OBIEE and run directly against Essbase (or ask support Essbase guys for this) and validate it returns nothing, and there is a problem in the application itself.

  • How to import excel as sorce of data file in the physical layer OBISE correctly?

    only imported the Excel using the import of database tool in the administration of Oracle's BI. I see the Excel but I can't see data in it. Can you help me, please? I'm new in the present.

    Do you have a range in excel file?

    The name of table range represents in the physical layer after you import excel file.

    See this example of blog:
    http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2008/06/OBIEE-Excel-import-prepping-data.html

    Have you used the import of database and select excel data source that you created in ODBC?

    I did the same thing and works for me.

    Save first repository and display the data and verify the source of data/name connection pool in your excel database directory.
