Thank you, ArijitC. That looks interesting. We are reviewing the possibilities for this.

Hi Christian ..not sure what that means. What does 'DV' stand for? Charles

Ok, thanks all. Would be nice to have the "hybrid" option - some mouse over, some filled-in values. But, should be able to work out something with the business users, given the existing options.

Ok, understood, thanks. Just grasping a bit here ... but, is it possible to have "mouse-over" capabilities or some kind of line/pointer, coming off the bar, with a value at the other end? Regards, Charles

Ok, I will abide by the rules ...

Thanks Joel. It looks like that did it! Going to test a bit more, and then should be able to close this one out as Correct. I think I may have to give Gianni 'Helpful' on this one ... only 2 minutes behind . Partial credit? Regards, Charles

Hi Gianni, The approach suggested by Joel seems to be the best fit for what was asked. I was just adding some supplementary information to the discussion. I had seen that OBIEE (non-OBIA) had the ability to configure data lineage. Here is where I had seen the reference (look towards the bottom of the note for the OBIEE…

Thanks ... you using ODI?

Hi - You may want to consider using data lineage. What is your version/configuration? Regards, Charles

Hi Thomas, I agree with you. But, I can see the lines are beginning to blur with this application (dba-etl-developer-analyst ). - That comment was made in jest Regards, Charles

Thanks Christian. I can see that there is a white paper on this feature. I'll check it out ... Charles

Hi - You are welcome. To get the 11.1.1.7.0 client, go to: https://edelivery.oracle.com, and search for 'Oracle Business Intelligence Developer Client Tool 11.1.1.7.0' Regards, Charles

Thanks Thomas. I tried, albiet unsuccessfully. The business thought this could be an easy change ... but, I can see we have some complications. The good news is that we will be re-engaging the developer who created the dashboard, in the near-term. Technically, I am not a developer. But, I can see the lines are beginning to…

Hi - This may be your issue: OBIA 11g: Unable To Extract Metadata Using Catalog Manager For Setup Of Data Lineage (Doc ID 2194309.1) OBIA 11g: Unable To Extract Metadata for OBIEE RPD Using Catalog Manager For Setup of Data Lineage (Doc ID 1916193.1) I just made a related reply here: Regards, Charles

By the way ... are you using OBIA (e.g. Bi Applications)? That documentation is referencing OBIA 11.1.1.8.x. Depending on which version/application/configuration you have, you can try looking at this: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/odi/develop-connectivity-km/biee_lineage.htm#ODIKM1524 Regards, Charles

Hi - I'm not sure if you have completed this yet, but make sure you use a 11.1.1.7.0 or 11.1.1.6.0 Catalog Manager client. I have an 11.1.1.9.0 client, and it does not work since it is missing some of the required columns are missing. This is is known issue/bug. In the Available Columns list, select the following columns…

Thanks! It should hopefully get the job done .

Ok, here is what I did: I moved 'Dim - AP Transaction Details.Purchase Order Number' to 'Financials - AP Holds.Document Details'. I do see that the other column under Document Details, 'Invoice Number', also comes from 'Dim - AP Transaction Details'. Here is what happened when I tried to run the analysis associated with…

beware, all of OBIA uses the "Core" business model, Oracle went for a single business model that uses conformed dimensions to the max, BUT, there is many a 'fudge' in here as Gianni is alluding to, for me (others may disagree), Oracle should have created business models only for the dimensions / facts that will produce…
