Hello,

I'm having issues with the drilldown function on one of my graphs on a portal that I've created and am hoping someone can assist. On my portal page, I have created 4 graphs and a report. the graphs function so that if I select a slice of the pie graph or a bar on the bar graph, the report filters to show that selected data. All 4 graphs function properly with the report when ran off of the portal page, however, when I run the portal and attempt the drilldown functions, it doesn't work with one of my graphs.

Since I am not very familiar with 8.2 portals, I'm not sure if there is possibly another portal function that is getting in the way. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try and check on my end?

Thank you!

1. What specific version/GEN of 8.2 are you using?
2. Which portal version are you using? V3 or V4?
3. Are you using the drill down into a specific fex or are you using Refresh portal page as your drill down?
4. Have you used the exact same &VARIABLE in your WHERE tests?

Chaudhary, I can provide the code for either the graph or the report, however, the variables pass through fine when testing the function via the page. the function simply does not respond when I test it from the portal.

BabakNYC, I believe I am using 8.2.02 but am not sure of a portal version. the drilldown method I am using is Refresh Portal Page and I am using the exact same variables in my where clauses.

Could you copy and Paste all the WHERE FIELD EQ &VAR here? What you're describing should work.

Also right click your uid on the top right click Help and click About WebFOCUS to find out what Gen you're running. That might be important.

Just to be clear, all components work if executed in a HTML, but in the Portal not. Did you put the whole page in the portal or every component on a separate panel?


Test: WF 8.2
Prod: WF 8.2
DB: Progress, REST, IBM UniVerse/UniData, SQLServer, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Greenplum, Athena.

Thanks BabakNYC. Below are the two where statements, and a set which drives one of them. this particular drilldown passes two variables when clicked.

the ReleaseID is 8202M. does that help?


-SET &STAGEGPHFILTER = IF &ACT_TYPE EQ WoS THEN REQSTAGESUBGPH
-ELSE IF &ACT_TYPE EQ WS THEN REQSTAGESUBGPH
-ELSE IF &ACT_TYPE EQ CI THEN REQSTAGECIGPH
-ELSE _FOC_NULL;

WHERE ABI_REQPORTAL_V.ABI_REQPORTAL_V.AGE_RANGE EQ &AGE_RANGE.|FORMAT=A10V).AGE_RANGE:.QUOTEDSTRING;
WHERE &STAGEGPHFILTER EQ '&ACT_TYPE';

Could you also show us the code that does the portal refresh? It's in the Styling area and should look similar to this syntax with your variables in it:

  
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N2, ALT='Drill Down 1', TARGET='_self', BUCKET=measure, JAVASCRIPT=drillRefresh('AMPERS_PAGE_ONLY' 'COUNTRY' CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY), $

Sorry! Meant to include that the first time around.

TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N4, ALT='Drill Down 1', TARGET='_self', BUCKET=y-axis, JAVASCRIPT=drillRefresh('AMPERS_PAGE_ONLY' 'AGE_RANGE' GRAPHME.GRAPHME.AGE_RANGE_DISPLAY 'ACT_TYPE' GRAPHME.GRAPHME.ACT_TYPE_DISPLAY), $

Your WHERE test is looking for AGE_RANGE and you're passing AGE_RANGE_DISPLAY. Same with the other variable.

okay, I switched all age_range_display to equal age_range, tried it within the portal and the portal page.

the drill down functions properly on the portal page, still does not function on the portal. Any other thoughts? Perhaps something on the portal side?

Could you get into the Administration Console and under Application Settings, BI Portal see if Collaborative Portal is checked? If that's checked you have access to V4 portals that work with Pages. If it's not you're probably using V3 and I doubt that's compatible with Pages.

You might need to talk to IB tech support to help you figure this one out. Frowner

I'll also be very interested in the solution when you find out.
