WebI and Merged dimensions

0
0

Hello,

 

One of our customer have problem with using merged dimensions:

 

How to produce :

     Create a query on a universe that will seek dimensions and indicators

     Create a second query on the universe that will search for the dimensions at least one joint with the first

     Execute queries

     Merge common dimensions

     Create a variable of type information on a merged dimension

     Create a table with indicators and variable => OK

     Change the universe source

     Refresh Data => KO variable information is no longer associated with the dimension

 

Univers unx, monosource

Have you an idea ?

WebIntelligence - Refresh taking huge time

0
0

Hi Team,

 

I have an issue in BI launchpad. Created WEBI report using BEx as a source and enabled Refresh on open option too. The issue is when the user open the report, its taking lot of time for displaying the prompt screen(Approx 30 mins). And we have only one variable for prompt.

 

But when I used to create the same report in Advance analysis for OLAP, its running fast in BI Launchpad.

 

Is there any option to resolve this issue?. Please do the needful.

 

Awaiting for the reply,

Thanks in Advance..

Krishna.

Changing the formatting by selecting the column did not help.

Webi Report throws error "Unknown Error in SL Service (WIS 00000)"

0
0

Hello Everyone,

 

I am trying to create a Webi Report directly on top of a BEx query in SBOP 4.0. I created a BICS connection in CMC to be able to access this BEx query for building a Webi Report.

 

Now when I open the BEx query using Webi Rich Client, I am able to see all the objects from the BEx query in the Universe Outline Column and when I start pulling the objects to my Result objects area and run the query I am getting the prompts that were declared in the BEx query, so everything worked fine until this point but when I fill the prompts and execute the query I am getting the error "Unknown Error in SL Service (WIS 00000)"

The thing that is throwing me off is, we have created a number of connections to different BEx queries in similar fashion and are able to create Webi reports on top of them but I don't understand what is wrong with this one.

 

Did any come across this issue and have any suggestions?

 

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Scheduling report with BICS connection and dynamic prompts

0
0

Greetings, Experts!

 

First off, I am using the following platforms:

-SAP BW 7.5

-SAP BO 4.0 SP5

 

I am developing WebI reports directly on top of BEx queries, using the much appraised BICS connection.

 

As a requirement from the client, no IDT development should take place. Which is fine, until we start talking about scheduling:

Also as requirement, we need to schedule the WebI reports daily, based on prompts from the BEx queries. I have found zero literature directly on the matter, except for the following reference:

"Current Options Using Standard Functionality

Until BusinessObjects 4.0 is released, it is not possible to use BEx variables (which will be made available by

the BICS connector) or the last load date variable", on page 3 of

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60f9702f-bf27-2e10-09ae-bd07546a17db?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true

 

I am currently using the BEx variables, as the reference states, but the behavior is not what we require:

-When scheduling, the default values for the BEx variables are correct (the current day, for example).

-But, on subsequent runs, the scheduled report retains the initial prompt. Meaning I get n daily reports all for the same date.

 

I am working with a BW team, but the connection between the two platforms is new for all of us.

What am I missing? Is there something else to do on the BW side? Is this functionality really implemented on BO4 or do we still need to implement the "magic dates" workaround like we did on the previous version?

 

Thank you for your attention!

 

Best regards,

Francisco

Index error while saving report!!

I am working on a report that currently has 10 tabs, but when I opened the report today I was only able to see 8 tabs.

 

When I try to save the report after modifying something, I am getting this error. can somebody help!error.png

 

I am currently using SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 and Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 6 FixPack 6 .3 and modifying the report on Web Intelligence.

SAP BO 4.0 SSO issues with random users

0
0

I have a couple of users who are having issues with logging into BI Launch pad using SSO. When they type in the URL it just hangs and does not go through. For some they get the error message: "The webpage cannot be found...Most likely causes:

*There might be a typing error in the address

*If you clicked on a link it may be out of date...."

 

On the Windows Internet Explorer the error message displayed is as follows:

 

"Errors on this webpage might cause it to work incorrectly....

 

Message: Access is denied.

 

Line: 132

Char: 9

Code: 0

URI: http://bobjprd01.com:8080/BOE/portal/1206150953/InfoView/logon.jsp "

 

The interesting thing is say there are BO 5 users who are on the same domain and members of the same AD group and out of those 5 only 1 or 2 will have issues logging is successfully through SSO. Similar issues has been identified with users on other domains. Out of say 200 users only 3 users have highlighted the problem. I am sure there will be more, but as mentioned earlier most of them have no issues at all.

 

We tested with a user who was having the issue (User A) by getting him to login to a computer where a user (User B) from the same domain and AD group and the same PC build had no problems getting in. The result was that User A had the same issue as before. NO access.

 

A) This proved that there was no problem with users computer. Same problem when logged in via Citrix.

B) We have checked their Java and IE versions and version required was already installed.

C) We also renamed their local and server profiles to test whether there was anything screwy in their profile. This did not resolve the issue as well.

D) Instead of the server name in the URL we replaced it with the IP address i.e http://10.xx.xx.xx:8080/BOE/BI. This sort of worked in the sense that it alteast got to the login screen where users had to enter their credentials. Manual login tested OK.

E) Next we tried doing ipconfig /flushdns, but no success in terms of SSO again.

F) We thought of entering the IP address in the host file in the C:\, but this did not make any change either.

 

We do not have any more ideas on how I can fix this issue. Could anyone please share their thoughts in this regard.

 

Thanks,

Lad

Joining universe based on Excel and BEx query in WebI

0
0

Hi Experts

 

I am trying to create a WebI report based on a BEx report (actual values) and an Excel
based universe (budget values). The common dimension that I want to join the
two data sources with is the date. From BEx I get the standard date format and
from the universe I get a date with the DateTime format (not able to choose
just Date in IDT somehow). Separately both of the “sources” work fine. But
after I join the two date dimensions in WebI and try to use any of the date
dimensions in the report, I get an error message (see below). After this I get an
error message and the WebI report I destroyed. It is not possible to open it
again. We use BO BI 4.0 sp 2 patch 14.

 

Has anyone encountered a similar error before?

SAP BW portal Iview for Webi report not working

0
0

Hi all,

 

I have an issue with a WEBI report Iview that is puzzling.

 

I have an SAP Portal Iview for a WEBI report that will not open. If you launch the Iview it gives the following error:

 

An error has occurred: Could not find the document.

 

The following URL is displayed: http://xxxxx.xxxx.local:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/1302041123/PlatformServices/service/app/error.do

 

The thing that is puzzling is that if you log in to either the CMC or the launchpad in the same session (with any user) the BW Portal Iview works.

 

Can any one give any guidance on this?

Thanks,

Hello All,

 

I'm noticing that some of my existing webi reports that had a company LOGO in the Header, only shows a RED X now. I tried to redefine the LOGO path but nothing that i tried seems to be effective enough to bring back the LOGO.

 

Did any one else come across this issue with Webi reports, please suggest me some solutions around this.

 

Please find the screen capture in the attachment .

The error was :

An internal error occured while calling 'saveDocumentToCorporate' API. (Error: ERR_WIS_30270)

 

environment:

BO 4.0 with latest SP (i forgot the SP number)

OS : Win Server 2003 SP 3 and LINUX ==> I have tried both and the error was the same

Proc : quad core

memory : 130GB++

HDD : free about 800 GB

 

I already try to increase the WebiProcessingServer option for the maximum memory threshold, upper and lower memory and also the binary file streaming option but still the error occured.
