Hi,

1. Created a session init block
2. Used data source as select '/shared/SH Test/_portal/Test1' from dual
3. Assigned this value to PORTALPATH session variable
4. In Presentation services > Administration > My account > Default dashboard should be set to 'default'. Then only the dashboard specified in init block will be displayed otherwise My account will override the init block.
5. Save the changes made to rpd.
5. Logout and relogin to see if it is working fine. it is working perfectly fine.


if you like to have user/group based home page.
1. They may need to have 2 separate tables.
i. Group_path_tab with 2 columns. Group_id, portal_path
Have group wise portal path for all the groups
ii. User-group map table
Group_id, Group_name, user_id

User should be part of some group.

2. Then in the init block write the sql should be something like this

select A.portal_path from Group_path_tab A, User_group_map B
where B.user_id = :USER
and B.Group_id = A.Group_id

So based on USER session variable, it will try to identify the group and then the portal_path.
Finally assign this value to PORTALPATH session variable.

Stefan,

In 11g the following new expressions have been added in saw.sessioninfos.xml file. This file is under $ORACLE_HOME/bifoundation/web/msgdb/common/

Edit saw.sessioninfos.xml file, you will see following tags:

<gdexpression id="hdrLinkCatalog" expr="true" />
<gdexpression id="hdrLinkOpen" expr="true" />
<gdexpression id="hdrLinkAdvanced" expr="true" />
<gdexpression id="hdrLinkHelp" expr="true" />
<gdexpression id="hdrLinkHome" expr="true" />
<gdexpression id="hdrLinkGSearch" expr="true" />

Each of these control the display of a UI element in the global header.
By setting the value to *"false"* instead of *"true"*, the corresponding UI element in the global header can be hidden.

For changes to take effect, please re-start BI Services and clear Browser cache.

NOTE: Finally, this change is global, meaning will affect all users.

Thanks,
Balaa...
