Information Broadcaster Performance

Hello
When an Information Broadcaster setting has been executed, whether it's being executed right this minute or scheduled at a later date, is this creating a background job that can be viewed within SM37? If so, are these jobs using Work Processors within the BW system?
Could these Information Broadcaster active jobs be competing with daily data loads for work processors? Can there be a performance hit on the system if too many broadcaster jobs get executed at the same time?
Also, I understand the Pre-Calc server is mandatory for using the Information Broadcaster, but does this server act as the processor for queries that are being executed? Or is this simply providing the formatting of the broadcasted report?
What is the main function of the pre-calc server?
Thanks,
Steve

What is the main function of the pre-calc server?
1. You can either schedule for later time or execute it immediately.
2. Yes it will create a job and view it in sm37 and it uses the work processor for the bw system.
3. You can do it right after data load if you need to broadcast ever day or week depending on your PC schedule. or you can independelty broadcast without the data load. There is broadcasting in the PC to broadcast after data load.
4. Yes, in my experience performance badly hit when you have so many broadcasting scheduled.
5. Pre-cal server is not mandatory for broadcasting, you need pre-cal only for broadcasting workbook but queries, templates.. you can use information broadcasting without pre-cal.
pre-cal server is for calculating workbooks offtime and it will either load to your client machine and you can use pre-cal for broadcasting workbook.
hope that helps.
thanks.

Information Broadcaster Utilizes 60 to 90 % of Java Stack CPU

We are currently on BI 7.0 and EP7.0; we have started using Information Broadcaster and we are noticing that it utilizes 60 to 90% of CPU on the Java stack.
One thing to inform is that we are using the same Java Stack for Portal, BI and R/3.
90% of CPU seems abnormal to me (At the peak of its usage the Portal Performance goes down).
Will this issue get solved if we use a dedicated Java Stack for BI? Thoughts Please.
Regards,
Deepak

Deepak,
We too facing the same problem.
After proper analyzation our experts decided to go for a dedicated Java Stack for BI to increase the performance.

Issue with Information broadcasting and pre-cal server in SAP BI

Hi Experts,
I have issue with information Broadcasting and Pre-cal server. I have a worrkbook whcih runs from information broadcasting in pre-cal server. Workbook is desinged on single query and workbook contains visual basic code. workbook has a variable which is controlled by Control query in information broadcasting.
I have 20 employees every month I need to send workbook via e-mail from information broadcasting. The problem is sometimes all 20 employees will recieve e-mails and sometimes not. I identified there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
because after workbook calculation in pre-cal server is not pushing to SOST so there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
I closely observed pre-cal server front end log. There are few operations performing on workbook in pre-cal server
like Open workbook, Calculate workbook, Save woorkbook and close workbook. In success case pre-cal sever is performing all the operations but in failure case pre-cal server is missing Close workbook case.
Below log In pulled from pre-cal server
Can you please tell what could be the problem.

Hi Ravikanth,
Thank you very much for the reply
I went into RSPRECADMIN and clicked on 'Display Current Queue'. There we have 3 sections
1) Queue Overview of Open Precalculations
I can see this section is always blank after running IB also
2) Queue Overview of Current Precalculations
In this section I can see an entry after running IB and duration is changing. but some time workbook in this section will never processed but the duration column is changing may be something is happening at this stage.
If the entry is not proccessed in this section and IB SM37 job will never end. I manually cancelled the job from SM50.
Don't why the workbook is taking long time and will never end even though I cancelled the SM37 IB job.
3) Queue Overview of Proccessed Error-Free Precalculations
All the error free workbooks which means all pre-cal server completed workbook calculation and sent to SOST.
I manually ran the workbook for all the 20 employees I can't find any pop-up message (earlier we have pop-up windows appearing because of VB code and when report returns no data and we fixed the pop-up issues)
Can you please help me further to trace the error.
Thank you
Narendra

Some questions on Information Broadcasting

Hi,
We're implementing Information Broadcasting. I have some questions and would be delighted if you could answer some or all of them!!
1. When using Web-templates I get the following message after opening my zip-file (Independent HTML-file) thru e-mail:
- Bex Broadcaster does not support Precalculation. What's the meaning of this? We get precalculate figures.
- The broadcaster demands that Javascript can be executed in the browser. How to solve?
2. When I broadcast a query as zip-file HTML with seperate MIME files then the precalculated views do not have drilldown functionality, i.e. the navigation block functionality does not work (static). I put navigation on Distribution channel. Is this normal way of working?
3. Broadcast functionality does not give possibility for Distribution type: 'Export to Enterprise Portal'.
We have an Enterprise Portal. Is additional customizing required?
4. Process chains have the Event Data Change process. This only works if I attach it directly to a cube. When I connect it to the process load data (i.e. to an Infopackage) it does not work. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!
Kind regards, Harjan

Hi Harjan,
Not sure what the issue is with regard to (1).
With regard to (2), you need to to click on the 'Filter Navigation' tab in the BEx Broadcaster, enavle filtering, and select the characteristics you wish to filter on.
With regard to (3), yes, there's additional configuration required in order to be able to broadcast into the Enterprise portal. Here's the documentation: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/84/30984076b84063e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
With regard to (4), the idea behind integrating the broadcasting event into a process chain is to only perform the brodcast if the info provider was loaded successfully to ensure the end user has accurate and up to date information. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ec/0d0e405c538f5ce10000000a155106/content.htm

Information Broadcasting - how to organize

Hi,
We have a requirement for information broadcasting for several reports from several countries. In this context we have to make the decision if we:
a) schedule the reports/precalculation centrally by the BW Team or
b) allow each end-user to schedule the precalculation
As a) has the disadvantage, that for the BW team the scheduling of several reports could result in a lot of maintenance effort, we are thinking about to decentralize this activity and allow the end users to schedule the precalculation. But here we see the risk, that b) is somehow uncontrolled and could lead to performance issues if users from the whole world schedule the precalculation at the same time. A second point is the knowledge exchange.
Can you tell us how you organized / customized information broadcasting in your company. How does the best practice look like. Thank you for your feedback!

Hi
In our company, a general BW account is created with relevant roles for each business, so key users from each business unit can create IBs using these general accounts.
However, only we, business analysts from group IT can schedule the IB which can maintain the control of IB.
Regards,
Feng

Information Broadcasting - need for additional Licensing?

One of the key features that is prompting us to upgrade to BW 3.5 later this year is the Information Broadcasting functionality.
This will allow us to easily push reports directly to our user base rather than the traditional method of manually emailing workbooks. However will this generate a need for additional licences? From the testing we have performed so far in order to broadcast a report the receiving user needs to have an account in BW together with the email in the address book.
We will have a considerable number of users whose only interaction with BW will be to receive a report that has been broadcasted. Does anyone have any experience of this same issue?
any help/advice appreciated.
thanks
Mike

Hello Michael,
One possibility is to create an email alias that is a distribution list of the users that you want to broadcast to. Create a broadcast setting, in step 2 of the broadcaster wizard specify the distribution list. You shouldn't need to create SAP logon IDs for these users.
I hope that this helps.
Cheers,
Scott

Overview: Integration into the Portal
Use
A number of settings need to be made in the BI system for the integration of SAP NetWeaver BI and SAP NetWeaver Portal. Some settings depend on one another, which is why we recommend that you follow the given sequence when you maintain settings in the BI system and in the portal. The report Maintain Settings for Integration into the Portal (report RSPOR_SETUP) supports BI system and portal administrators in setting up a secure connection in both directions, step by step. First the report asks you to make the required entries and then automatically determines additional specifications that you either have to enter manually, or that are entered automatically when the steps are performed.
Template Installer
As an alternative to report Maintain Settings for Integration into the Portal (report RSPOR_SETUP), you can use the template installer. The portal-based template installer enables the automatic configuration of the settings required in the portal and in the BI system. For more information, see Template-Based Configuration.
Requirements
Before you start to maintain settings, you enter general information. This information is used, in part, by various steps. If you determine this mandatory information at the start, you can perform the steps in a simple, logical sequence.
The report summarizes these specifications in the selection screen. The specifications are saved for the current session so that the transactions for the individual steps can be called separately from the SAP Reference IMG.
BI administrators require authorization for transactions SM59, SMGW, RZ10, STRUSTSSO2, SM30 (table RSPOR_T_PORTAL) and, in some circumstances, STMS.
Portal administrators need to have the portal roles super_admin_role and com.sap.ip.bi.business_explorer_showcase assigned to them. They also need to have access to the portal file system.
It is recommended that, from an organizational point of view, BI and portal administrators work together closely.
Connections Between SAP NetWeaver BI and SAP NetWeaver Portal
This report supports you in establishing connections between BI and the portal. The portal communicates with BI using the Web protocol http or https. Communication is establised based on the system object in the portal.
BI uses an RFC connection to communicate with the portal. The portal is the RFC server and BI is the RFC client. The report is used to create an RFC destination.
Single Sign-On Between SAP NetWeaver BI and SAP NetWeaver Portal
Single Sign-On saves you having to log on to BI and the portal separately. Single Sign-On uses SAP Logon Tickets. SAP Logon Tickets are created in the source system and contain the system ID, user, validity, and a digital signature. The digital signature is created by using the private key of the certificate. In the target system, the signature is verified by using certificates with public keys. The target system must trust SAP Logon Tickets from the source system; this requires the source system to be entered in the access control list (ACL).
For single sign-on to work correctly, the URL must be fully specified with the host name and domain. For this reason, you must also specify the portal URL prefix and domain in step 3. When you call BI iViews within the portal, the hostname from SAP NetWeaver AS determined in step 7 is used if this is a Web template from BEx Web Runtime 3.x For this reason, you must also specify the domain there. See the documentation for different domains under SAP Library -> SAP NetWeaver -> Security -> User Authentication and Single Sign-On -> Authentication on the Portal ->Single Sign-On -> Single Sign-On with SAPLogon Tickets -> SAP Logon Tickets for Multiple Domains.
Standard settings
The individual selection screen values are now described. For a more detailed description of these values, see the documentation on the individual steps.
Creating RFC Destinations in the J2EE Engine
Program ID: The program ID is the name of the registered server program (see step Creating RFC Destinations for the Portal).
Portal Directory: The Portal Directory is used to start the SAP J2EE Engine Administrator tool. The file ./admin/go.bat has to be in the directory. The SAP J2EE Engine Administrator can also be installed locally on the administrator's PC for remote access to the portal server.
BI User and BI Password: The BI user and the BI password are used by the J2EE Engine to request signatures from the RFC function modules in the BW system. Users can be compared using ALEREMOTE.
Creating RFC Destinations for the portal
User-Defined RFC Destination, Program ID as RFC Destination and RFC Destination : This report allows you to choose any name for the RFC destination. Otherwise the program ID is used (see above). If you choose a user-defined name, enter the name under RFC destination.
RFC Description: The RFC description is the text that is displayed in the BEx Web Application Designer and BEx Query Designer applications as the description of the connected portal.
Maintaining Portal Server Settings for the Portal
Default: To select a portal as the default portal, select the Default indicator. A warning will be produced if another portal is already marked as the default portal.
Portal URL Prefix: The Portal URL prefix is required for input help in the BEx Broadcaster. The report uses the portal URL prefix to list particular iViews for maintaining or testing the settings. The portal roles super_admin_role and com.sap.ip.bi.business_explorer_showcase are required for calling these iViews.
Prefix of RM for BI Metadata: The RM prefix for BI metadata is required in the step Setting up Repository Managers for BI in the Portal and also has to be maintained in the portal server settings. The prefix determines the path in Knowledge Management under which BI metadata is accessed by the Repository Manager.
Exporting the BI Certificate into SAP BI
Export Path and Export File Name: The BI certificate is saved under the specified path and file name and can then be imported into the portal.
Creating BI Systems in the Portal
Path in Portal Content and Name in Portal Content: The BI system in the portal is created under the specified path and name in the Portal Content Studio.
Template for Defining BI Systems in the Portal: As a template, you can choose either System with Load Balancing orSystem with Application Server when creating a BI system in the portal. The necessary information is determined and displayed depending on the template you select.
BI Properties: The following properties are specific to a BI system. If the identifier BI Directory Provider is activated, the BI system is displayed in open dialog when selecting queries or InfoProviders. The properties BI Documents for InfoProviders, Master Data, and Metadata contain the path to the respective CM Repository Manager for storing BI documents in Knowledge Management. These properties are used when the documents are migrated to Knowledge Management.
The property BI Master System means that the BI system is the central persistent store in the portal. The BI master system is used to read and execute Web templates. The running BI Web Runtime requires exactly one BI master system within a portal.
System Alias: Every system in the portal requires a system alias. You can enter any value. SAP recommends that you use the logical system name as the alias.
Creating System Alias SAP_BW: For the portal role Business Explorer com.sap.ip.bi.business_explorer_showcase, a BI system is required in the portal with the system alias SAP_BW. Note that there can only be one system with the alias SAP_BW.
Configuring User Management in the Portal
Logon Ticket Client: The logon ticket client can be any value between 000 and 999. The client is necessary if several portals with identical portal SIDs are connected. This is not normally the case and the default value can usually be transferred. You have to enter the client when you import the portal certificate into the BI system.
Exporting the Portal Certificate into the Portal
Portal SID: The portal SID is required so that naming conventions are observed. It has to be entered when you import to the BI system.
Import Path and Import File Name: The portal certificate should be saved under the specified path and file name and can then be imported into the BI system.
Maintaining User Mapping in the Portal
User-Mapping User and User-Mapping Password: The user-mapping user and password are used to check user assignment. This information is not absolutely necessary but does ensure that all settings have been made for a secure connection from the BI system to the portal.
Activities
1. Determine the mandatory information described above.
2. Execute the activity (= report Maintaining Settings for Integration into SAP Enterprise Portal ).
3. Enter the mandatory information on the selection screen.
4. Choose Execute.
5. Choose Previous Step or Next Step to switch between the individual steps.
6. To execute the step, choose Execute Step. The system either starts the necessary application so that you can enter information manually, or executes the step automatically. For each step the report supports the start-up of the appropriate application for executing the step manually.
Sequence of Steps
SAP recommends that you perform the necessary steps in the following order:
7. Create RFC Destination in J2EE Engine
8. Create RFC Destination for the Portal
9. Maintain Portal Server Settings for the Portal
10. Maintain Single Sign-On in the BI System
11. Export BW Certificate to the BI System
12. Import BW Certificate to the Portal
13. Create BW System in the Portal
14. Configure User Management in the Portal
15. Export Portal Certificate to the Portal
16. Import Portal Certificate to the BI System
17. Set Up Repository Manager for BW in the Portal
18. Maintain User Mapping in the Portal
19. Import SAP Basis Plug-In to the BI System
The documentation for the individual steps describes the manual process. The report Maintaining Settings for Integration into the SAP Enterprise Portal (report RSPOR_SETUP) executes some of these steps automatically..

Information Broadcast Email File - Where is the file in Unix directory?

Hi,
I am using Information Broadcasting to email the BI report. We use Unix as the application server.
In transaction SOSV, I can get detailed information on the file (attachment) and the send status. There is a requirement to encrypt the file in Unix server. Does anyone know where the file resides in Unix when the report is generated from Information Broadcasting? What's the Unix directory?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Similar to information broadcaster in BI can anything be done in ECC ?

Hi ABAP folks,
Just wanted to know the possibilities of implementing something similar to information broadcaster in SAP BI in SAP ECC 6.0. If yes how it can be done?

If you are seeing this behavior on other iPads sold in China, then I would have to assume that it is a country specific thing and you will not be able to change anything in the settings to make iBooks appear as an "open in" option. I would also recommend trying to find another eBook reader for these iPads, because you can't change the way it works now.

Information Broadcasting in SAP BI 7.3

Hi All,
We have a requirement to send a report to few recipients through Information Broadcasting in .CSV file. When I entered Info Broadcast setting through BEx analyzer, I am not able to find the option to send the file in .CSV format. I could only see MHTML, HTML and Links to current data. Could you please help me out in solving this?
We are on SAP BI 7.3
Thanks.

Hello,
Unfortunately it is only possible to broadcast with the output format CSV with a query or query view. That is by design.
Best regards,
Michael

Hi,
Even I have gone through the SDN document. It is clearly explained step by step. If you follow the same document thoroughly you will be able to see Determine From Variants radio button properly.

Issue with controllable variable in information broadcaster jobs

Hi
I have a workbook with one query which displays different information on two tabs. This query has a controllable variable (customer exit) on "Material" from a query in another info cube.
Everthing is fine when you execute the workbook as you can select the variable from another info cube. However, when I set up information broadcaster job for this workbook, the controllable variable only takes effect on the report in one tab and runs for everying for the report on the other tab.
I tried to change the query slighly but keeping the same controllable variable and insert the new query into the other tab, it still doesn't work for me.
Is this just the limitation of IB or anything else can be done to get the results I want?
Kind Regards!
Feng
