WEBI 4.1 - BICS - Access type for Result Values

$
0
0

Hi Expert,

I'm going to create new webi reporti in BO 4.1 using BICS connection.

I'd like to use in Bex query the property "Master Data" in "Access type for Result Values" but doesn't work.

 

I've done that:

 

step 1

 

1. set property Master Data in Access type for Result Values for infoobjects 0COSTCENTER in bex query

2. Insert infoobjects 0COSTCENTER in my WEBI report and it DOESN'T works! I'm showing only posted values.....

 

step 2

 

1. set property "Retrieve empty rows" in webi report query panel

2. refresh report, and now it WORKS fine!!!!

 

 

step 3.

1. add 0CURRENCY in bex query

2. set property Posted values in Access type for Result Values for infoobjects 0CURRENCY in bex query

3. add 0CURRENCY in webi query panel

3. add 0CURRENCY IN webi report and now I'm showing ALL currency though without value.

 

 

At this point I'm thinking that property "Access type for Result Values" in BEX query for BICS connection DOESN'T WORK!!

 

Could someone confirm that?

Webi report prompt selection

$

Hello All,

 

I have a requirement in a webi report where I have Manager ID in the prompt of the query. This is a single selection and is a optional prompt. So when the user runs the report and selects a Manager ID in the report it is displayed at the top where I have used a Reportfilter function.

 

Now for example there are 500 Manager ID's and when the user doesnt select any ID and runs the report the reportfilter shows all the Manager IDs.Is there a way that instead of showing all 500 IDs, it displays ALL when user doesnt select any Manager ID?

 

Thanks,

Nisha

Hi, i have the above output in my webi report and i'm trying to create variables that count column [F] where the value is the same.

So the above table should produce the desired results.

 

LETTER - 3

E-MAIL - 2

PHONE CALL - 2

FAX - 2

 

I have a variable each for letter, email fax and phone call and i've tried the following formulas for each but non produces the correct count

 

=Sum(If Left([F];6) = "LETTER" Then 1 Else 0)

 

=Count([F]) Where ([F] = "LETTER")

 

=Count(If([F] InList("LETTER"); [F];0))

 

=Count([F];All) Where ([F] = "LETTER")

 

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks!!!

#Multivalue error

$

Hi,

 

I have a dataset of customers (with unique customer numbers) that have sales in 2 years. 2012 & 2013. I have added a flag to each customer
to identify customers which are new business customers in 2013 (i.e. the customer didn't have sales in 2012) and existing business customers (i.e. had sales in 2012).

 

I have created a dimension to put the flag on each customer. The formula I'm using is as follows:

=If(IsNull([Sales Quantity Full Year] In ([Customer No]));0;1)

 

where,

Customer No is the unique customer number

Sales Quantity is total sales in the prior year

New business customers will have a flag of 0

Existing business customers will have a flag of 1

 

All this works fine, no issues so far.

 

Customer sales are broken out into different sales areas, North, South, East & West.

 

What I want to be able to show is a vertical table with the sales areas in a vertial column on the left, then beside that the total for new business sales in the period (2013) and then another column for exisitng business sales in the period. I don't want to show customer numbers as its too much detail.

 

               New Business     Existing Business    

North          1,000               12,000

South          2,000               11,000

East               500               8,000

West          5,000               15,000

 

But when the try to show the table like this I get #Multivalues where the values should be.

If I only include North and also include the customer numbers the values are shown, when I remove the customer number and so at an regional level, I get #Multivalues again.

 

I have created a measure for New Business, the formula reads as follows:

=Sum([Sales Quantity  2013]) Where ([New Customer]=0)

 

The formula for Exisiting business is the sames only 0/zero is replaced with 1.

 

Hope someone can help,

 

Thanks,

Merge two rows in one row with extra column

Hello,

We are on BI 4.1 on Windows. I am an administrator and want to write a basic WebI report. How can I merge the master and details rows into one row. The customer no, Name, item comes from TAB1 and code and value comes from TAB2.

 

Customer no     Name     Item     code     value

12345               Name1     IT1     17          23.00

12345               Name1     IT1     63          45.00

 

Teh TAB2 will always have multiple rows for one item based on the code field. I am only interested in two always. The code 17 means price and 63 means maintanance cost for 5 years.

I want it to display in one rows like -

 

Customer no     Name     Item     Price     MaintCost

12345               Name1     IT1     23          45.00

 

The value of Price and MaintCost will defined based on the code field, which is in TAB2.

How it is possible in Web Intelligence 4.1? I am hoping it is something simple to model for a technical administrator.

Please let me know.

Best Regards,

SS

Hello Everyone,

 

There is point were i am not able to get the desired result for my user authorization, need your advise on it.

Here is the scenario i want for my users.

In launch pad i have a folder by name HR DASHBOARDS. I have a user let it be X, what i want is once this user logs into launch pad, it should see only HR DASHBOARDS folder there once he clicks on the folder tab.

 

The steps i've followed are

 

1) Log in to CMC using Enterprise Administrator.

2) go to Folders >> Click on the "All Folders" >> Click on Manage >> Top-Level Security >> All Folders.

3) add "BO Users" in the security list of "All Folders".Then grant right "View Objects" only to object and uncheck the box

   subobject for this right.

4) Now come BO Reports folder >> Right Click on this folder >> Click on User Security >> Add BO User group to this folder's

   security list.

5) Grant right "View Objects" to this group over the BO Reports folder for object and subobject. Keep the boxex for object,sub

    object selected.

 

As i am applying the above steps ...the user X once logged into launch pad is able to see all the Public folders not only HR DASHBOARDS :/

 

 

Please Advise.

Hie Guys,

 

I am having trouble displaying all the contents of a column when Exporting to Excel. Basically, the column is a long text that explains the status of a project. Name of the column - "Status Description". Now, I have already formatted the column to "Auto- fit Height" & "Wrap Text". All the contents of the cells are displayed when viewed in "HTML" & "PDF". However, when I export it to Excel, some column cells have not been accounted for "Auto-Fit Height". I've given the example below. Thanks.

 

In HTML & PDF:

 

Project ID                    Status Description

 

100                         This project explains the status of

                                the project 100. The expected benefit

                                from the project is supposed to be

                                $1.2 M.

Hi,

 

I am currently working on BI 4.0, SP5. When I am try to open a Web I report in the Rich Client, it stops working. I get a window with the message "SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise has stopped working". This happens for a particular report ONLY. For all other reports, the Rich Client works fine. Talking about that report, it opens perfectly fine in the Launch Pad, though it takes a lot of time. I have huge amount of development to be done in that report, due to which working in BI Launch Pad would be difficult.

 

Thanks,
