Hi, Google return this as one of the first results ...

After a garbage…

What is the "middle of the report" for you? If you want the title as background of your chart you can't do it. If you want the title on the top, left, right, bottom of the chart just move it. And also you are talking about the title view of your analysis or the title field inside the chart view? (that's why I said that a…

Hi, In the center like ... the title in the middle of the chart? Or what "center of" are you referring to? (a picture is worth tons of words ....) And as we are here: what exact version of OBIEE is your question about?

Keep it simple ! Based on your previous posts the business model is unique and common between HR and FIN, so I also assume the model can ideally answer a report on address, employee ID and salary. So just 1 click! (ok... 2) Add the second subject area and make your report. Or, going back to my previous answer, in one of…

Hi, I would say that to convert a prompted link to a bookmark link you have to open the page with the prompted link and click on the icon to get the bookmark link and save the resulting URL. In a prompted link URL you have all the parameters in the URL, in the bookmarked link you have a "BookmarkState" attribute which,…

Actually that's a perfect answer ! Nobody asked you to be able to take a picture of that cat and then use photoshop to put the words on it, all they asked you is why you like it (you = the OP, not Christian) PS: if you go there with an OBIEE dashboard I would say 85% you don't get the job

Hi, First thing first: manage subject area in "Manage Privileges" isn't security, it's like if you look at the moon, you put your thumb in front of it and suddenly say you found a way to hide the moon. It's a wrong impression of security, do not base any security on that one. Security is about data: can you access data…

I maybe missed a point (reading too quickly): isn't your prompt setting the value of the request variable you use in the WHERE condition? Because if you use the prompt to set a session/presentation variable which then set another variable in the analysis (with the SET VARIABLE syntax) and it's this new variable used in the…

Your request variable act as a sessions variable: it exists, it's there, it's set, so it as a value. For an analysis, for a prompt or for any other query you send to OBIEE in the same session. So yes it must work for a prompt as well. A prompt takes its values from the same exact RPD as everything else. So if your "WHERE…

Prompts have a kind of "stronger" cache, the query to populate a prompt once it's fired it keeps the results somewhere and avoid running the query again. You are probably hitting this case (the logs in your session clearly show if your prompts are firing a new query or not). If you confirm you are hitting this case,…

You are still missing the point ! "a real life project" will not answer the question you have been asked ! LMGTFY

Hi Carsten, Your image is the 2 rounded corners squares with the colors of your company, right? You then play with CSS to display numbers (2 columns) of your analysis inside? If in the PDF you don't have the image, do you at least see the 2 numbers? Is the style correct? (one bigger in top-left position and second smaller…

Hi, You are mixing things up a bit ... You have security in multiple places, the one you are referring to, the "Manage Privileges" in the front-end admin, isn't really security, it's more what a user can see in the "new analysis" drop down list. The same user with no access to a subject area there can perfectly open and…

And what OBIEE are you using? 10g, 11g, 12c? (including patchlevel version) The one not working is a new one you just built and the old one workings were already existing?

Hi, the "contact the owner" in a scorecard is based on the OBIEE user set as owner. So the email isn't set by hand but it's an attribute of the user. In general OBIEE populate emails of users by using the SA System subject area (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/e10541/sa_system.htm#BIESG3137)
