Hi Gurus,
I am implementing unv on top of Oracle DB. I would truly appreciate if you could shed a light on the topics below.
1- What is the type/name convention/authorization level/other characteristics. of the Oracle db user that connects to universe?
2- In case i am working at client tool(UDT) what type of configurations at udt tool/operating system/database OR installations(e.g. db drivers setup, odbc connection set up)/further works do I need to follow/operate?
3-What type of actions should have been already made on the server in order to work on server?
Thanks in advance all the responses.
Kind Regards.
Eddy.

please help me
We need to create reports in Web Intelligence from our PCM Models (Business Objects Profitability and Cost Management). We are able to create the olap universe using PCM MDX Connector and we have no problems creating the reports in webi. The problem is when we execute the report (run query): all the data from PCM model is loaded correctly (dimensions, levels, etc.), except the Measures. I mean, the values of all the measures are always zero (0). No matter the way we change the query (adding filters, adding or chopping dimensions, drilling levels, etc.) the value for every measure is zero.
We've checked the aggretation method of each measure in BO universe designer and are all correctly configured.
The model in PCM is calculated and even when we run the queries in PCM Model Builder tool directly to the model, the results are retrieved Ok and the measures have correct values (Revenue, lineitem values, etc.).
Any ideas of what is going on?

Hi lads,
We have recently upgraded our BO system from 4.0 SP5 to BO 4.1 SP3.
We have solved all incidents we had during the upgrade process, except one, and we don't know what to try or do else.
I explaine you. We have a webi which mixes HR and COPA data, and it's splitted by Business Area. We have 3 business area in our company, so do 3 similar webis. This split is just for roles and authorizations.
Webis are built over a BEx OLAP connection.
In BO 4.0 all the 3 webis work fine. In BO 4.1 2 of them work fine, and just one have an issue, which is that is showing #TOREFRESH in some formulas and variables.
We have tried:
- Refresh connections (saving and recreating).
- Refesh queries (saving)
- Recreate variables and formulas.
- Refreshing report (thousand of times).
- Queries BEx are fine, retested and rechecked.
What we have discovered is the following: error happens when in the formula there is a KeyFigure followed by a "Where" clause, and if we substitute the KeyFigure for a new Variable variable with a ForEach, it works.
For example:
1. Current formula (which works in 2/3 of webis, and in 3/3 webis in BO 4.0)
= [Key Figure1] Where [Structure]="TESTTESTTESTTEST"
--> #TOREFRESH error
2. Create new variable:
= [Key Figure1] ForEach [Structure]="TESTTESTTESTTEST"
3. Substitution KeyFigure by Variable:
= [New Variable] Where [Structure]="TESTTESTTESTTEST"
--> No error.
We would like to know if any of you have had the same incident, and we can avoid to modify so many variables and formulas.
Thanks
Hi,
Getting following error "The requested directory does not exist." for Input and Out put file repository server.
The specfied directory exists and the user has local administrative privelges with full control of the IFRS and OFRS location.

Hi,
I have a following Object.
Object name : Object_ABC
select : A.Trade_id
where : A.Trade_id not in (select c.id from c where c.id=A.Trade_id)
When I drag the above object in Webi, I get the following query :
Query1 =
Select A.Trade_id from A inner join b on (A.Trade_id=b.some_id) inner join c on (b.some_id=c.id) where A.Trade_id not in (select c.id from c where c.id=A.Trade_id)
When I drag the same object in Deski, I get the following query :
Query2 =
Select A.Trade_id from A where A.Trade_id not in (select c.id from c where c.id=A.Trade_id)
The underlined portion is eliminated.
The strange part is Webi in the production generates Query2. The webi in UAT and Dev generates Query1.
The deski generates Query2 in Dev, UAT and Production also.
BO version : XI r2

Hello,
I would like to send a Web Intelligence WID unsecured document to another user using Web Intelligence Rich Client.
In Web Intelligence Rich Client I select the Send option "As unsecured WID". The document is being sent successfully. But the user who gets the report and tries to open it also using Web Intelligence Rich Client receives an error message - "The document has been locked by the user 'username' on the following cluster...".
We are using SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.1 SP05 version.
Is this a bug or I am missing something?
Thank you for your feedback.
Best regards,
Donatas
Hi,
How can I change the order of columns in a Bar chart.
For example, I have country in the "category Axis" and the the value axis I have two measures e.g. Actual and Plan. I want the columns to display as Actual and Plan rather than the other way around.
Even if I reorder in the assign data part the ordering - it changes the order of the display in the key but not in the chart?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Has anyone seen this before? If I manually type the value in the "Type a value:" field, and click the > arrow to send it to the selected value(s) and click ok it will not filter using that number. i also notice it shows a key icon next to the number when it goes over to the selected value list. If I do select the value from the list below already generated and send it over to the selected value(s) list it will filter correctly. I'm asking because we're trying to manually input a bunch of values so we don't have to look up each one individually. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi all,
I'm getting an "Applet Initialization Error" when loading the applet version of Webi. The full error message is below.
My local client is on Windows 8.1 with IE 11. My server is 4.1 SP4. The PAM says that this should work.
The HTML version of Webi works fine and the server is working OK. I have tried it on Windows 2008 Server R2 with IE11 and the applet version works fine.
I have tried the following versions of the 32-bit JRE and they all have the same problem: 1.7u45, 1.7u72, 1.8u25.
I have tried IE 11 with Compatibility mode on and off. I have ensured I have "Enhanced Protected Mode" disabled.
I have also tried with Chrome and Firefox, both with the same results.
I have tried disabling my Windows firewall and my anti-virus - no luck.
I've run out of ideas for what else to try. Any ideas what could be going wrong here?
Thanks and Regards,
Jonathan

Thank you for any suggestion

Hi Experts,
Is there any way to figure out list of Webi reports having logo/image from Query Builder or Audit database?
We have the requirement to change our company logo with different one. As we have more than 300 reports its very difficult to check manually which report is having logo.
Your inputs are very much appreciated.
