Offline WEBI rich client install for Concurrent Use License users?

$
0
0


Is it possible for users logging into our system with BI Platform Concurrent Use License access to be able to legally use the standalone webi rich client on thier pc's and to then be sent webi reports for offline use?

 

One caveat is that the 'Preference' option in the BI Launch Pad is disabled, so they won't be able to download the rich client from there.  The question becomes then, where could they download it from?

 

Thanks,

Webi report migration from higher SP version to lower SP version?

$

Hi guys,

 

I would like to check with SCN community if it's possible to move the webi reports (and universe) from higher version Service Pack  to lower Service Pack version.

Our POC environment is in BI 4.1 SP4 Patch1 and we wanted to move the webi reports from this to lower version (BI 4.1 SP1).

 

Is this possible in anyway or any workaround which might work here?

 

Appreciate your interest.

 

Thanks,

Pass Multiple Values.

I’m using  SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1. and is trying to pass parameters between two documents.

 

 

And found a document

 

 

“ Step-by-step Guide to Linking
WebI Documents using OpenDocument in SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 “ by Vineeta Singh

Passing a Single Value works great, but I need to Pass Multiple Values.

   For example I selected two groups when I refresh data in from A. How do I transfer this to form B?

 

   I tried the hyperlink;

 

http://stjh1482:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=5157&sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&sWindow=new&lsMgrp=(UserResponse("
Assignment-Group:")) but  I get “no data”

 

   What amI doing wrong?

Create one report based on several refreshed reports

Hi.

 

I'm on a project on wich we have created about 30 WebI reports for each company (16 companies on total). This was done like this for performance reasons.

 

Our client now is asking us if is possible to create only one document for each company, and for this we should colect refreshed info from current Webi reports and group them into a single document.

 

Does anyone have come across with this on an BO project? Does anyone have some ideas on how to com into this?

 

Regards.

Hello,

     We currently have an issue where the BW Load is showing successful in RSA1 but there's data missing.   The data is missing in both the BW data source and the report.   Has anyone had this issue and can point us to what to look at as a root cause?   This issue has become urgent as the impacted reports are critical to our vendor's inventory and financial processes.  This is happening to about 4 reports that we are aware of right now.

WEBI 4.1 Error

$

Hello All,

  I am generating a report from WEBI 4.1 (SP2) on top of a BEx query.I am getting an error message the moment report opens up in report panel (attachment).Any ideas what has this to do with ?

What's better? Line charts or column charts w.r.t. performance?

$
0

Wherever appropriate is it better to use line charts over column charts in terms of performance?

 

E.g. For charts showing head count trending or utilization trends or any kind of trends, one could show it as a line chart of column chart.

 

Note: My question is purely directed towards performance and not towards what's a better representation.


Restricted values in Dimension

Hi All,

I am new in the field so need your help. I have below data source coming from BW:

 

Date               Week               Region           Dollars

------                -------                ----------           ---------

01/20/2014     2014WW03     JAPAN            50

11/14/2014     2014WW47     AMERICAS    10

11/23/2014     2014WW48     KOREA           30

01/01/2014     2015WW01     APAC             20

01/10/2014     2015WW02     EMEA             30

 

If have created following formula (as Measure qualification):

MinWeek =Min(if([Date] > CurrentDate()) then [Week] else "2090WW10") in Report

 

Above formula will give the minimum week having date grater than current date. So with system date as 11/14 it should give 2014WW48 as MinWeek

 

Another formula is:

Weeks =[Week] where ([Week] >= [MinWeek])

 

So the above formula returns following weeks:

2014WW48

2015WW01

2015WW02

 

Another formulas are like:

AMAEICAS $ =sum([Dollars]) where ([Region]="AMERICAS")

so on...

 

Using above formulas / Variables, I created below report block:

WeeksAMERICAS $APAC $EMEA $JAPAN $KOREA $
2014WW4830
2015WW0120
2015WW0230
1050

 

So if you look at the last row, it is creating extra row with blank "Weeks" and sum of remaining regions which don't fall in "Weeks" formula is shown here. I am not able to filter out this row because the blank value is not member of "weeks" variable.

 

I tried another formula for weeks as follows...

Weeks =if([Week] >= [MinWeek]) then [Week] else ""

 

With above formula I can see [Blank_Value] in the "Weeks" variable while applying filter but when I apply filter on "Weeks" not to include this value, nothing is shown in the report block

 

My Requirement is

To display weeks greater than current date (by utilizing date column as we are not following standard calendar, so no built-in functions can be used) and corresponding dollars per region.

 

So I want to show above table without yellow line.

OpenDocument in Geomap - Pop-up not displaying second report/map

$

Hi there,

 

 

Background

 

I am using SAP BO BI Platform 4.1, Support Pack 4, Patch 3.

 

I have two reports, each comprising a single vertical table which renders as a Map when viewed on an iPad.

 

When the user clicks on a POI (in this case, a Local Authority) in the first report, I want to be able to display the second report/map, which shows all the properties within the Local Authority selected on the first report.

 

The Name of the first table is: map_lt2_lo3_poi4_ca1_od8

 

What happens at the moment?

 

When the user clicks on a Local Authority, it brings up a small pop-up window with an information icon (see image). However as indicated in all the documentation I have read.

 

If I click on the information icon, it simply enlarges the pop up with nothing in it! If I double click in it, it reads "Content Not Supported"

 

 

Do you know why :

 

1. I don't see an arrow?

2. Why the second map/content does not display? (Note that it won't even display the second report when I removed the map configuration from the latter - i.e. it was just a regular table)

3. Is it even possible to display the second map within the first map?

4. Is there a way to display the second report in totality (i.e. when clicking on the pop up, it takes me to the second map and away from the first map?)

 

I have successfully tested that two reports link to each other via the OpenDocument link using a Desktop PC. (i.e. I clicked on a Local Authority on the first report/table and it opened the second report/table showing properties for that Local Authority.

 

Many thanks for your help in advance!

Use prompt without refreshing against DB

$

Hello guys,

 

weird question maybe, but I have a webi (4.1  SP3) report, that is scheduled to run every night, while all prompts values are empty.

The run takes a while because the tables are big, and eventually I get a report with lots of data.

 

If The user wants to get a specific value from, lets say "item code" to the report, and using prompt for it - the report goes back to DB to refresh the data provider.

 

My question is, Can I somehow set the prompt to run against the latest instance instead of using the connection to the DB?

 

(I know filters can be made through filter bar \ Input controls, But the reason for narrowing the data down, is for having fewer rows and make the report 'lighter')

 

Thank you,

Or.

Webi Rich Client does not sync with scheduled reports on BI Launchpad

Hallo Guys

 

I'm trying to update existing reports in the public folders (BI Launchpad) via Webi Rich client. It works 100% when I modify a report that is not scheduled, but when the report has been scheduled the changes are not reflecting in the Launchpad, it's like it was never modified. We even tried this with Administrator, same result. If a different user logs on via Webi Rich client, he can see the changes that waere made to the report. It just doesn't show in the Launchpad.

 

Am I doing something wrong? Is it even possible to save to a scheduled report from Webi Rich client? I read this discussion and according tho that it should be possible: Replace a Webi report with a new version without impacting associated publications/schedules

 

We are on BO 4.1 SP4

Prompt issue with Web Service

$

Hi All,

 

I have done the following steps to create webi report using web service as source.

 

  1. Created webi report using bex query as source with mandatory prompt as "Fiscal Year" and saved the report as "Source_Rep"

  2. Right clicked webi table and selected "Publish as web service" and created a webi service query.

  3. Used webi service query as source in webi and saved the report as "Target_Rep"

 

 

Is there any way to  change the prompt value in "Target_Rep" to show the output based on prompt without depending on source report?

 

I tried to  edit Target rep and input prompt value with "Fiscal Period". But the report result is not refreshed for new prompt value and showing the same result as source report.

Thanks
