Hi Guru's,

There is a requirement in my current project where many OBIEE12c reports having more than 30+ fields.

They want to display only few fields on analytics screen out of 30+ fields, but they need all 30+  fields in the report while download.

I have checked and it is possible to get all the fileds while downloading in CSV format but it is not supporting in PDF format.

Does anyone have idea how to acheive this? Any suggestion/workaround/solution/document would be higly appriciable.

Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,

Ritesh

    a) OBI is an analytical platform not a data dumping tool - just keep that in mind.

    b) You can always put download links on the dashboard using the gopath / gourl methods and call a specific analysis for download rather than the one you just dragged & dropped into the dashboard

    c) Since 11 you already have the option to create specific output formats which you create with BIP. that whole functionality was invented to have A shown on the dashboard but make it loo like B when you export

    HI Christian,

    I am completely agree with you that OBIEE is an analytical platform not a data dump utility. I have tried convincing to the client in the same way. But they have some business requirement for all these fileds. Hence they need all these filds in PDF format.

    I have not got completely point (c). Does it mean creating such reports in BI Publisher?

    Is that possible through OBIEE Answer?

    Best Regards,
