How can I design a WEBI prompts logic to take in "This Month", "This Year" and run the report accordingly for the Current Month and Current Year

June 15, 2015, 5:49 pm

Hello Gurus,

 

We have a requirement where in we are working with our portal team to link up WEBI reports from the Portal using OPENDOC functions.

The requirement is When the user selects values from the dropdown in the UI  as "THIS YEAR", THIS MONTH, "THIS WEEK", they want to view a report that understands the strings and run accordingly with the correct results.

 

The issue is the portal team wants BOBJ to handle the different prompt logic depending on the text.

 

Can anyone outline an idea on how can this be accomplished?

 

For example when the value THIS MONTH is selected on June 15th 2015, the report should run for Begin Date: June 1 2015 and End Date June 15, 2015.

 

When THIS YEAR value is selected on the UI, the webi should run for BEGIN DATE: 01-01-2015 and END Date: 06-15-2015.

 

Is there a way the OPENDOC sends the value THIS MONTH and THIS YEAR to BOBJ and can a universe or Report solution eb implemented to understand the TEXT and convert them into date values for the prompts?

 

Any insight into this will be greatly helpful.

 

Thanks,

Rcc

Need a List of WEBIs built on top of a specific Universe (Only from PUBLIC folders)

BI Gurus,

 

Could you please let me know -

 

How to obtain a list of all WEBI reports built on top of a specific Universe? I know the below query can give me all the reports built on top of a specific universe. But below is the problem with this.

 

SELECT SI_ID, SI_NAME, SI_WEBI, SI_OWNER FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS, CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS, CI_APPOBJECTS

Where PARENTS ("SI_NAME = 'Webi-Universe'", "SI_NAME = 'Universe Name'")

 

  • It lists all the WEBIs built on this universe from their personal folders, Inboxes, Instances through out years - So the result is 1000's of rows of report names. All I need is only WEBIs from the PUBLIC FOLDERS - not the USER INBOXES, PERSONAL FOLDERS, FAVORITES, INSTANCES HISTORY etc. How to achieve this?

 

ENVIRONMENT: SAP BUSINESS OBJECTS 4.1 SP4

 

It would be great if someone can help with this.

 

Thanks,

RCC

Duplicate records issue in webi report

June 15, 2015, 4:49 am

Hi All,

 

I have a requirement in which I am retrieving the data from 3 tables (say A,B,C).

 

The current relationship between these tables is like A->B->C. Since I need only a few of attributes from each of the table so I am getting some duplicate records. Although If I select all the columns from each table then it will return distinct records.

 

Our QA advised not to use the DISTINCT keyword as the solution for this problem. May be because of performance issues. I can not use Group by also since I don't have any measure in my query. Report level aggregation is also not the solution for this problem.

 

With some analysis i found we can get non duplicate records by creating the relationship like A->B->C->A. However this forms a loop.

 

Now I am not sure what should be the solution for this requirement.

 

Can someone advise any solution for this problem.

 

Please Let me know if you need any more information on this. Thanks !

Experts,

 

    I have need to create a Variable that returns either Y or N so it can used as a Flag to turn on/off things using Input Control.  The problem this is variable in NOT tied to any Objects in the Data Provider, it needs to be self stained.  Also like creating your on own data values for a table.

 

 

 

Any suggestion,

Cache for derived columns

When we promote Web Intelligence reports along with underlying Universe to another BOBJ instance, say from Quality to Production, the reports that use derived columns from the Universe error out in the target instance while running with message:

 

"Some objects are not available to your user profile. You cannot refresh this document. (IES 00002)"

 

They work when we manually delete the derived columns and add them back to query. It looks like there is a cache pointing to the source BOBJ system that prevents objects to refresh in the new environment but I am not sure about the details and how to overcome this error without the manually modifying the query. We are on BOE Version 4.2

Compare row by row

Hi,

 

I have a problem for creating a report in Web Intelligence. I would like to compare rows from a table in order to display the updated rows between 2 dates.

 

For information, my application allows to manage contracts. A contract can be linked to one or several person (contact). My purpose is to display the updates between 2 dates. In fact I would like to say between 2 dates if the contacts for a contract have been changed...

 

Here below a part of the data retrieved by my universe in my report.

 

Contract IdUpdated DateHist IdContact Name
1553/6/20151Sebastien
4/6/20152Nicolas
5/6/20153Nicolas
6/6/20154Jean
9/6/20155Jean
Paul

 

In order to display only the updates between 2 dates I have created a DETAIL variable "Update Contact":

Update Contact = If([Contact person]<>Previous([Contact person]))Then ("Updated") Else ("No update")

 

And I Tried to display it in the report and to filter on that:

 

Contract IdUpdated DateHist IdUpdate ContactContact Name
1553/6/20151UpdatedSebastien
4/6/20152UpdatedNicolas
5/6/20153No updateNicolas
6/6/20154UpdatedJean
9/6/20155No updateJean
UpdatedPaul

 

For the update on 5/6/2015 it's ok because no data has been changed.

For the update on 9/6/2015, I would like to see "Updated" because another person has been equally assigned. If I do a filter on "Updated" I have an error:

 

Unable to get the first page of the current report - Web Intelligence will switch to structure view (WIJ 20003).

 

Could you please help me to solve this problem, or please give me another solution to do this comparison between 2 rows?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi masters,

I'm using auditing univers.unx and some reports to get bo analysis. I have a problem when I try to filter values from event detail dimension which is defined as a longtext.

 

I can see the values correctly on the webi table:

valorsTaula.jpg

But when I want to filter by Event Detail Value, I can not see on list of values the values propertly seen on the table. I got a little square at the end of each value and I'm not able to filter for any value.

 

Llistavalors.jpg 

 

On data federeator this field on table is defined as longvarchar. Do you now any problem to show full content of longvarchar on a dimension?

 

Have you seen this little square before on values?

 

thank you by advance.

Token not being assigned to Open Document Link

After upgrading to BI 4.1 SP5 we have notice that a bttoken is no longer being assigned to our OpenDocument link.  This is causing our users to be presented with a user id/password log in screen instead of the detail level report.

 

Prior to clicking on the OpenDocument link are users are logging into a .net application which then uses the Restful service to create a log in token.  We have confirmed the log in token is being generated as expect and our users are able to access the summary reports that the token is being assigned to.  Within the summary report is where we provide an additional OpenDocument link, which will take you to a detail level report. This is where we are no longer able to access the token. 

 

We have notice that this issue is temporary fixed after performing a restart of Tomcat, however after reaching either the token time out setting or by killing the first login session the links are no longer working.  Prior to upgrading "BI4.1 SP2" we were running into similar issues until we implemented the below lines into a custom OpenDocument.properties file.  This fixed our issues at the time, but now is no longer working in the new SP5 version.

 

logon.allowInsecureEmbedding=true

sso.types.and.order=sapLogonToken

 

We are currently working with SAP regarding this issue, but any additional assistance would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks Paul

Webi and its data aggregation: how to create a dynamic counter?

June 17, 2015, 8:23 am

Hi experts,

 

I am fed-up with Webi and its way to aggregate the data.

 

I have been trying, for 2 days now, to do something really simple with BEX but which cannot be done in BEX because of WEBI limitation (except some body can tells me a trick!).

 

I am trying to get a material counter where a KF is set to 1. Pretty simple would you say ! But no... I am not able to find a way to do it:

 

Here is the "incoming table"

 

YearMonthMaterialInternal / ExternalValid
201412.2014M1Internal1
201412.2014M1External1
201501.2015M1Internal0
201501.2015M1Internal0
201501.2015M2Internal1
201501.2015M2External0
201502.2015M3Internal1
201502.2015M3External1
201502.2015M4Internal1
201502.2015M4External1

 

I want to get a dynamic result following the user parameters (filters).

 

I want to count the number of distinct Material per month for which the Valid KF = 1.

 

So I need to get the following Result when no filter on Internal/External is set:

 

MonthCount

12.2014

1
01.2015  1
02.20152

 

When the flag is set to external I should be able to get:

 

MonthCount

12.2014

1
01.2015  0
02.2015

2

 

If the user set the Internal / External value then the count should also evolved.

I have tried many things:

Count(Material, Distinct) ForAll (Month) in Year where (Valid = 1)

Count (Material, DIstinct) ForEach(Month) inYear Where (valid = 1)

Count (Material, Distinct) Where Valid = 1 forEach (Month) in (Year)

 

And I always get the number of distinct Material whatever the Valid flag value is set to!

 

Does anybody has an Idea?

Thanks.

Cheers,

Cyril.
