Hi Experts,
I want to prepare a WebI report for mobile deployment in real-time using Excel file. I am a bit confused now as to where to store the Excel sheet as it has to keep on updating on regular basis based on the output of a back-end ABAP program. As and when the ABAP program is executed, it has to update my existing excel file in the BO server (by the reference of the server path). The steps I followed so far is as follows:
- created excel file based on the output format of the ABAP program
- created ODBC connection to the excel file
- prepared the universe based on the excel data from the designer
- generated the WebI report for mobile deployment
** the excel currently resides in the local drive of the server
Please suggest where exactly should I place the excel file so that I can generate a link directly to the ABAP back-end program. (Am I suppose to configure the File Repository Server in this regard?)
Thanks,
