Scheduling a web intelligence report with year and month in report name

How to schedule a webi report so that it's name contains the schedule date in format "Reportname_YYYY_MM".I selected the option Date And Time in Formats and destinations tab under scheduling options but it displays system time as well.I need only in the above mentioned format.Can anybody let me know if thisis possible at all?

YOu may want to try to create a publication with dynamic recipients and "abuse" the email or user name of your recipient to pass add the date in the desired format in the name of the instance.
Just use aWebI report as source for the dynamic recipient that displays the current date in the format you want and use this column as the ID of the dynamic recipient.
Check the publication guide for more information on how to create and schedule a publication (I assume oyu are using BO XI 3.1 SP3)

Scheduling of Web Intelligence Reports - (BO Xi 3.0)

Hi,
I have scheduled 8 webintelligence reports using CMC based on file based event.Most of the time it has been observed that the Webi services got down when the scheduled report starts processing.The reports runs in few seconds and the data returned is say around 10 records for each reports.
In Windows Event Viewer, I am getting the error log with following message:
CMS Server Watcher: server named
'<CMS Name>.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer' is being marked as down because it is unresponsive.
Can anyone put some light into this issue.Is it a product related issue.I can confirm that there is no issue with the scheduling configuration of all the 8 reports.
Many Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep

Many Thanks Sarbhjeet,
We are realy in a very crunch situation and the reports scheduled are failing every day without any pattern.
The resolution that you have provided is to add a new clustered services. But I have observed that all the reports gets refreshed within 10-15 mn.If the reports were too complex/taking hell amount of time to refresh/data is very high etc then I would have thought of a separate service for load balancing.
Please give me some clue...I have seen you blog where you have provided solution to similar problem in BO XI R3.
Please help me out.....
Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep

I have tried few things nothng is working. any suggestions .
THANK YOU

I forgot to mention 1 important thing.
If the user wants to run a dashboard or report (WITH HISTORICAL DATE) the comments should be displayed for that particular historical date.

What's happaned with Web intelligence report Server

Hello
Im making a document about the BOE XI 3.1 server and when i saw the services in cmc web app i dont the services:
Web intelligence report Server
Web intelligence Job Server
Dont this services exist anymore?
Thanks
Vegas

I believe they are called adaptive processing/job servers now, from the CMC services there should be a sub category for webi, the new names are listed under there.

When will the SAP Mobile BI Android SDK to embed analytic views (Web Intelligence reports and Dashboards) in custom mobile Android App be supported/

hi all,
SAP Mobile BI IOS SDK provides such SDK to embed analytic views (Web Intelligence reports and Dashboards) supported by the SAP BI application inside your own custom mobile applications, while Android SDK does not provide such sdk. I would like to know if there is any plan or roadmap to support this interface in Android SDK?

Thank you Vishwanath for your reply. We already developed an Android App, and just want to embed and open SAP BO report directly inside our own App, instead of launching SAP Mobile BI App.

Schedule a Webi XIR2 report to run for all values of the prompt ...

Hi there,
Any ideea about if it's possible to schedule a Web Intelligence XIR2 report to automatically run for all 150 different prompt values in the LOV (and have 150 different instances)?
BOXIR2, Java deployment.
Many thanks.

You'd be scheduling the document 150 different times, each for one value of the LOV.
You'd use the ReportEngine (REBean) SDK to read the LOV values, then use the Enterprise SDK to schedule.
Here's a bit of code that illustrates how to schedule a Webi doc a single time with specified prompts. You'd do something similar, but iterate the prompt setting and scheduling:
    IInfoStore iStore = (IInfoStore) eSession.getService("InfoStore");
    ReportEngine reportEngine = ((ReportEngines) eSession.getService("ReportEngines"))
                                    .getService(ReportEngines.ReportEngineType.WI_REPORT_ENGINE);
    IInfoObjects objs = iStore.query("Select TOP 1 * From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where "
                                      + " SI_KIND='Webi' And SI_INSTANCE=0 "
                                      + " And SI_NAME = '" + reportName + "'");
    //============================================================================
    // Open Webi document, then get and set Prompts collection
    //============================================================================
    IWebi            webi    = (IWebi) objs.get(0);
    DocumentInstance di      = reportEngine.openDocument(webi.getID());
    Prompts          prompts = di.getPrompts();
    for(int i = 0, m = prompts.getCount() ; i < m ; i++) {
        Prompt prompt = prompts.getItem(i);
        String name   = prompt.getName();
        if("Enter value(s) for State:".equals(name)) {
            Lov lov = prompt.getLOV();
            lov.refresh();
            Values values = lov.getAllValues();
            prompt.enterValues(new ValueFromLov[] { values.getValueFromLov(0),
                                                    values.getValueFromLov(1)});
        } else if ("Enter Shop Id:".equals(name)) {
            prompt.enterValues(new String[] { "261" });
    //===========================================================================
    // Copy prompts over to InfoObject
    //===========================================================================
    PromptsUtil.populateWebiPrompts(prompts, webi);
    //===========================================================================
    // Schedule Webi report to run once now
    //===========================================================================
    webi.getWebiFormatOptions().setFormat(IWebiFormatOptions.CeWebiFormat.Webi);
    ISchedulingInfo schedInfo = webi.getSchedulingInfo();
    schedInfo.setRightNow(true);
    schedInfo.setType(CeScheduleType.ONCE);
    iStore.schedule(objs);
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

WIH 00013 time out error while viewing a BO Web intelligence report

Hi,
I have a BO web intelligence report. While viewing the report i get WIH 00013 time out error. I have another report with everything same as this one except for one filter condition. That is working fine but former is giving me an error.
I tried changing the timeout values to 120 minutes from 90 minutes in connection server setting but didn't work.
Also when i run the same report by scheduling it in CMC and format as PDF, then it works fine. This error only comes when i try to view the report directly from infoview.
Please let me know if there is any other way to resolve.
Thanks!

BI Launch Pad - Error opening Web Intelligence Report (Error: INF)

Hi:
We're working with 4.1 Support Pack 3 Patch 1
Version: 14.1.3.1300
We migrated a Webi report from development environment to testing and it was working fine.
After making some minor changes on the Web Intelligence report, we migrated again, but now when we open the Web Intelligence report we get the following error:
Faltal Exception occured. The cause was: com.businessobjects.corba.generic.container.proxy.internal.DependencyFailoverCallbackImpl$FailoverFatalException:
Prepare failover failed (Error: INF)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Florencia

Hi Florencia,
It seems like report is corrupted some how.
To check report is existing in filestore or not , go to report in Launchpad->Properties->check File name , there should be frs path assigned to it.If not it is corrupted.
Ex : File Name:frs://Input/a_067/064/004/278595/auytslwhrgrdneqcvzbefs0-guid[atli.nsurgzit4q8pfgonmi].wid
If it corrupted , check in myfavourites : ~webintelligence folder , there you can find last auto saved instance.If not we may need to create new report.

Gauges/Dials in BO 4.0 Web Intelligence Reports

Hi All,
We are currently working on BO 4.0 and want to add Gauge in web intelligence report. As we know that, Gauge is not existing in the list of components provided by BO webI so we need to do some work around or even for the single value display which other component we can use in WebI.
Can anyone suggest how we can achieve the same?
Regards,
Tina Ailani

Personally, I'd do something like this:
Open Microsoft PowerPoint, use the drawing tools to create a thing that looks like a dial (with a needle).
Copy and paste it 8 times.
Move the needle on each so that's it in a different position.
Right click the shapes and click "Save as Image".
In Webi, add a blank cell where you want the picture to be.
Click the alerters icon in the toolbar.
Add some rule, for your measure (whatever should drive the needle of the chart).
Click the format button, and on this page, select an image for that sub-alerter.
I think 8 is the limit. You can always apply to alerters (each with 8 sub-alerters) to the same cell.

Web Intelligence Report Server - Error: Failed to run rexec. Error number

Hello,
I post a message in this forum :
"When i want to start "Web Intelligence Report Server" with CMC, i've got this error :
Web Intelligence Report Server: Echec du démarrage/de l'arrêt du service sur l'ordinateur distant : Error: Failed to run rexec. Error number: %12.
Any idea ?"
I've do this command :
bouser@v-bo-1 bobje$ ./ccm.sh -restart ras
bouser@v-bo-1 bobje$
but i have always the same error "Error: Failed to run rexec. Error number: %12".
Thanks

Please try to avoid posting duplicate forum posts.
This command :
bouser@v-bo-1 bobje$ ./ccm.sh -restart ras
Restarts RAS server and has nothing to so with WebIntelligence.
To be able to Start/Stop servers from CMC, you have to have rexec running on your Unix box.
Google rexec for more information on what it does and ask your Unix admin to enable it.

How to add image in web intelligence report?

Hi All,
I tried to add an image into web intelligence report by using the background image function available in the appearance settings. But when I tried to click on the button with ellipse, it does not show up a dialog box.
Do I miss out anything? Help is really needed.
Thanks
David Yee

Hi David,
You can try these steps to see if the Background image dialog box is appearing for a Free Standing Cell.
1. In Webi Java Report Panel, select Templates-> Free Standing Cells -> Formula and Text Cells-> Blank Cell
2. Click and drag the cell in the report.
3. Select the cell Properties
4. Under Text Format, click on the button in the Background Image property.
5. You can select the u201CImage from URLu201D or u201CImage from fileu201D.
6. If you are selecting u201CImage from URLu201D, change the u201CRead cell content asu201D property to u201CImage URLu201D under Display section in the Properties Window.
Hope this helps.
