How to config for only "View Latest Instance" is available in infoview ?

Hi,
The BO version is "BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0"
The purpose is in infoview, for each report user can see, only the feature "View Latest Instance" is available.
I have tried to set the access right, but at least, the user has below features:
View
Properties
View Latest Instance
History
New
Add
Organize
Is there any idea to do remove the "View" feature but keep others there ?
Thanks & regards,
Forest

Hi Forest
I would like to make following suggestion :
The option "View" and can not be removed. It is the primary right to access the Report.
If there is no right "View Objects", Report will not appear in the desired folder.
It is important to have "View Objects" right which will make "View" appear. Once this right is present
rest of the situation for Report can be imagined.

How to hide the view latest instance option for the reports in XIR3

Created an access level and denied the rights "view document instances" and "view document instances that the user owns" in the access level.
Applied this access level for a particular group on a particular folder.
Login to Infoview and when view the history,there are no instances for a particular report under that folder.
But we could still see the 'View Latest instance' option in the properties of the report and when click on it,we are able to view the report.
As per the security assigned,the user should only be able to view the instances owned by him.
Plz help me how to hide the option in INFOVIEW

In 9.3.1 (not sure about 9.2) there is a table in your BIPlus repository which stores preferences/profile information, however, having a user simply log in to WA doesn't appear to automatically create a row for them in this table. (So this may not be a viable solution to your situation, I'm still looking for one myself.) This table stores lots of preference info such as whether or not to show the Main Menu, Toolbar, Masthead, etc. by default.
To hide the View Pane, edit the data in the SHOW_INFO_PANEL column, change it from a 1 to a 0 and for that user the View Pane will not longer appear by default.
HYA_USER_PREFS
But again, this only works if you already see the user in the table otherwise I guess maybe they have to 'touch' their Preference before it creates an entry in that table. Haven't figured that part out yet, and Support didn't have any information.
If anyone has found a way to maneuver through the table structures I'd love to hear any insight you can offer.
Before you make any changes to the data in this table be sure to take adequate repository backups, and use caution as usual.
I'm going to create a Shared Preference and have each user point to it the first time they log in - but then you lose the ability for each user to have their own personal folder as their default, so it's still not the ideal solution. Really wish there was a way for Admins to set certain prefs. A coworker reminded me under 7.? or 6.x things like View Pane were system-level settings which was easy to control, but now it's at the user level.
Good luck,
Karen

Crystal report for Enterprise show latest instance shows URL not found error

hi everyone,
we recently upgraded our BO4.1 platform from SP2 to SP5.
after the upgrade we are getting error while view the latest instance of Crystal report in BI launchpad, this error occurs only for Crystal report and that only when we scheduled in pdf format.
anybody faced this issue before, any idea or resolution?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ganesh

when I click on view latest instance, i am getting below error.
The requested URL /BOE/portal/1503182223/CrystalReports/filename/CREnt_BICS_STS_Check.pdf was not found on this server
but when see the path, I could see the path till /BOE/portal/1503182223/CrystalReports/

View latest Instance Option in Dashboard

Dear Experts,
Could you please tell me the advantages of VIew latest Instance Option in Live Office Connection in case of every user has different authorizations.
Please answer the below things.
1)If we create a Dashboard using the View Latest Instance option after scheduling the Report,what are things we have to do so that every user can see the data
based on his related authorization?
2)If users are more number ,then is the View Latest Instance Option in Live Office Connection is the right option,in case every user have his own Authorzation?
If yes ,how the dashboard ll work for different Users?
3)Users how can see the dashboard in which they should able to see the data related to their Authorization?
Could you please share ideas related to View latest Instance Option?
Regards,
Venkat

HI Wolfgang - not sure it's possible. You'd probably have to leverage an alternate scheduling 'destination', i.e. if for instance you schedule to a users Inbox, then they should see the latest instance in their inbox - no right-clicking required to open that. Possibly impractical if separate instance is created for each user - though I'd hope this wouldn't be the case if the report contents are the same for everyone.
Cheers, Ferdie.

BO 3: View Latest Instance by default

Hi gurus!
I have an issue i cant resolve. Please, help me with adivce.
I made a bex with no variables. The one variable is bex date that equals current date (0P_ERC01).
Then i created universe in Universe Designer, base on this bex. AFter that i've created report. This report will transfer data to the dashboard via QaaS.
As the report will have much amount of data, i want it to be scheduled for everyday execution. So, everyday business user will open a dashboard and will get cached current date information from the latest instance.
For this purpose i want to use standart scheduling in BO InfoView (vers. 3).
How should i do this?
For testing i've created a test report and scheduled it to execute every 5 minutes:
The last successfull instance was at 10:04.
But when i open a report (not an instance) - i see the data, that i was updated manually at 09:44
How can i get a fresh data in report, a data from the latest instance?
Now i can get this data just by pressing "View Latest Instance"
So i want my report to be refreshed by latest instance every time when the instance is executed successfully.
Waiting for your questions and advices.
Thank you!

Doble click on a report, it opens the latest instance.
Right click, then view, opens the report. there is no way that by clicking on 'View', you get the latest instance.
best regards,

InfoView - Default view latest instance possible?

Hi,
I have an issue with InfoView, and the opening/viewing of Desktop Intelligence reports.
The report I am talking about is scheduled on a daily basis (each night) so users don't have to refresh it every time they open it.
To view it via InfoView, they have 2 options:
a) The most usual and logical is to press the main hyperlink, the one which shows the name of the report. This is always showing you the report with the data from when you did a last refresh of it (report is set to not refresh data on open). Seemingly totally ignoring the scheduled instances!
b) Users can also open via 'View Latest Instance'. This shows the last result(instance) of the last successful schedule of the report.
This is confusing, since I would of course like the users to view the latest version(instance or whatever) of the report in both scenarios a and b.
Is it possible to make the main hyperlink with the name of the report point to the latest instance of the report also?? Or am I wanting too much here???
Thanks for any help!
Frode

Hi Frode,
Yes you can... In the CMC, goto to BusinessObjects Enterprise Applications --> InfoView and the Object Listing property set (1) View the Object or (2) View the latest successful instance of the object.
This is a global setting and affects all users so changing this setting here will make it the default setting for all users. No individual setting is available for a user.

"View Latest Instance" as Default in BOE XI 4.0

Dear all,
I am using a BO BI Platform 4.0 to deploy Crystal Reports in my organization. These reports are scheduled daily, users are viewing these reports via the BI Launch Pad.
Now I want to protect my users from the need to click first on the document and then on the "View Latest Instance" as this would most likely be asking to much of them. So - I would like to make the "View Latest Instance" the default behavior when users click on a document.
I read a couple of forums and it seems up to XI3.1 this was possible. However, is seems that the feature is gone with BIP4.0.
Or is there still a method to achive what I want?
Thanks & best reagrds
Wolfgang

Unable to view latest instance in BO Infoview XIR2

Hi,
I am unable to view latest instance in BO Infoview XIR2. Can any one please let me know general procedure to cross check in Infoview or Consol
Thanks in Aadvance

Sweety

Hi Sweety,
What happens if you login as the Enterprise Adminstrator account, do you get the option to View Latest Instance?
- What do you mean exactly when you say you cannot view the latest instance?
- Are you missing the option/context menu or is the incorrect report displaying?
I would suggest working with your Enterprise Administrator to ensure you have sufficient rights to View the latest instances. However, if you're not able to select the option check out this SAP Note:

How to config Mail to import latest email from host?

Hi, I have added a yahoo email account in my Mail.
However, when I enabled it and it always import all the mails from my account, it has nearly 6xxx mails...
Is it possible to config in Mac Mail, so that only import latest 50 mails etc. from my account? It is just like what we can do in iPhone.

Hi "hlthanh",
The authentication is going to be an issue for APEX, as you can only specify an SMTP server which does not require authentication. I know - it is a limitation in APEX that I wish to address in APEX 4.0, but that doesn't help you right now. All I can suggest is to stand up a relay between APEX and GMail, have APEX push mail (unauthenticated) the relay and then use the relay to push it to GMail's SMTP.
Sorry I don't have a better suggestion.

Adobe TV Video Tutorials: how to download for offline viewing?

How do I download Photoshop CS6 video tutorials from Adobe TV for offline viewing ?

It depends on which browser you have. If you are using Safari, post in their forum area.
If using FireFox, use one of there many (hundreds) YouTube video downloader add-ons. My personal preference is the DownloaderHelper add-on.

CE10 how to prevent user from view hostrical instance

hi,
We are currently using CE10. One of our user used search functionality in enterprise to search for reports start with 'employee' and it came back with all the crystal reports on the server that started with employees, even the one the user doesn't have access to. My greatest concern about this is that users can view historical instance and it is sensitive data. Does anybody know whether or not this is a bug in CE10? Is there a patch/fix for this? Is there any configuration change that I can make to
prevent users from being able search all the reports on the server rather just their own reports? Any help is greatly appreciated.

hi,
I have an EVERYONE group with limited access(view object), and EVERYONE group is added to each folder with NO ACCESS. If I revoke view object(explicitly denied) privilege from EVERYONE group, do I still need to remove EVERYONE group from each folder? When I'm at folder level in CMC, I see EVERYONE GROUP added, but when I tried to remove the EVERYONE GROUP, the EVERYONE group is not an option for removal. What am I missing?
Thanks for your help!

How to: subscribe for the viewer's Error event

I am running a third party report tool and am trying to understand how to comply with their request. My report works fine in all export modes with the exception of export to word at which time it throws a "Index was outside the bounds of the array"
error. This does not occur in any other export mode (i.e., Excel, RTF, TIFF, yada, yada.)
The request from the vendor is " subscribe for the viewer's Error event and the report's Error event to get the exception."
I run Win8.1 and would like to create a subscription to the View Event log to trap the occurrence of this error. I have tried to locate some documentation online as to how I can accomplish this.
Where can I find this information as well as an example?
Tom Mann MCSD C#

They seem to be suggesting that the control will raise an error event which you can subscribe to.
myViewer.Error += SomeHandler;
and presumably
private void SomeHandler(object sender, EventArgs a)
// Do some error handling.
If there turns out to be no actual error event then..,..
Can you put a try catch block round code does the export?
I'm guessing maybe not and it's an internal thing in the viewer.
Plan C , let's see now.
Try to find a way to override that button click on the viewer.
Hope that helps.

How can config for SNP Aggregate only aggregate demand not stock on hand?

Dear SCM Expert,
Now we want the system aggregate only demand and not aggregate stock on hand ( Stardard system aggregate both of them) so what i have to do?
thanks so much.

Hi
The stock on hand is a calculated key figure. It is calculated based on macros. So you have to write a macro or you can copy the stock balance macro logic from the standard detailed book. In the detailed book no aggregation is done. But to avoid aggregating stock on hand you have to put logic in the macro
Thanks

How to plan for allocation of Eloqua Instances with Enterprise license

Does anyone have additional materials about the allocation of the 20 Eloqua instances that come with an Enterprise subscription, including best practices guidelines?
Thank you!

Hi,
So far, I don’t know how to identify with Lync Powsershell or .NET as well.
However, you can identify from Lync Server Control Panel. For Lync Server Multitenant Hosting Pack, it is incompatible with Lync Server Control Panel, this means you should use the Lync Server Control Panel only in read-only mode. For example, enabled
users are not displayed in the User section of the Lync Server Control Panel. So you can identify with the way of enabling users on Lync Server Control Panel, Lync Server Standard/Enterprise Edition will show the users on Lync Server Control Panel.
