Hi Khaled,
Normally when we schedule a report as "Now"..it takes hardly 1 min to start..
in my case it is taking more than half an hr or more to start...

Scheduling webi reports via Java SDK in BI 4.1

Hi,
Has anyone been able to schedule a Webi report containing date prompts via Java SDK in BI 4.1? I have tried doing so but it doesn't work when date prompts are involved, I get the exception raised: java.lang.NullPointerException error. Though the scheduled instance is created and the date prompt appears to be correctly populated the report fails with the above mentioned error message. The code is working for other text prompts but fails when I have a date prompt in the report. I am using the populateWebiPrompts() method to populate the prompts.

Hi Christopher,
Try adding the following line in your code before scheduling:
iWebi.setUserInputLocaleName(documentInstance.getProperties().getProperty(PropertiesType.BASE_LOCALE));
Also as an FYI, please refer below details.
For scheduling webi reports with prompts, the only supported way is to use Restful webservices SDKs.
The feature of scheduling a webi report with prompts were deprected from release BI 4.x and introduced in the new restfull webservices. Restful is the future which SAP is focussing and would be great to have your application on supported terms with SAP.
You can get details about the restful webservices from the documents and blogs available at below forum

Date error when scheduling webi reports

Hi,
When i click the prompt option in re schedule the scheduled webi report, i got the error "while trying to invoke the method java.util.date.gettime() of a null object loaded from a local variable 'date' "
The BI version is 4.1 SP03
The scheduled webi reports failing and got the error as "Unparseable date: "01/01/1900" "
How to solve this issues?
Regards,
Kathir

This might fix it from the note http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1981477
Create a WebI report that uses a date object in the Query Filters
Schedule the report
Reschedule by manually entering date value which shows only date and no timestampExample: 12/31/2007
Reschedule by selecting date value from the calendar which shows date timestampExample: 12/31/2007 12:00:00 AM
Create a biar file using the Import Wizard and migrate to BI 4.1 SP2
BI 4.1 SP2 BILaunchPad, navigate to and Right click the report and go to “History”
Right click the instance without a timestamp for the date parameter and select “Reschedule”
Click on “Prompts” on the left menu and note an error is produced:This error occurred: while trying to invoke the method java.util.Date.getTime() of an object loaded from local variable ‘date’
Attempting to schedule this instance (as Run Now or Reschedule) without selecting a Prompt value fails with the error: Unparseable date: “12/31/2007”
Using the instance with a timestamp works as expected

Could you please help me on the abive 3 issues for the WebI schedule reports
Cheers ,
Pradeep Gorpadu

Hi,
While refreshing the WEBI Reports would recommend you check the WEBI PROCESSING Server's last changed date from CMC--> Servers.
Check when you are refreshing the reports, do you see the time stamp changed of WEBI PROCESSING servers?
Do you keep getting this error messages for all WEBI reports? Can you re-produce this with simple e-fashion reports as well?
After that go to the node where WEBI PROCESSING servers installed and check on the event viewer details if you see any relevant error messages.

Scheduled Webi Reports Don't Open on iOS's MS Exchange Mail

Hi all,
I am not sure if this is the right place to write this post but I will try anyway.
We are using BO 4.0 SP6 and schedule webi reports as attached xlsx of pdf in e-mails.The problem is that the attached pdf's and excel files don't open right away in iPhone's native mail application when using MS Exchange. A tiny question mark shows up on the top corner of the attachment and when you tap on it, it asks which application to use to open it. We can choose iBooks app for example to view the file. We would like the attachment to open right away as we tap on it as it does usually.
Here are some test results:
-We have observed this issue on iOS 8. However, there are rumors that it started with iOS 7. Same rumors suggest that it would work fine before iOS 7.
-We use iOS' native mail application with a MS Exchange account set up.
-We have also tested it with a gmail account set up next to the exchange account. The attachment opened with no problem.
-If someone forwards the mail received from the BO server, to another exchange mail, the attachment opens just fine.
-We have no problem opening other exchange mails with attachments on mobile.
We suspect, the exchange mail can't confirm the sender address thus can't trust the attachment if it is really a pdf-excel file. So we tried scheduling the webi report with a valid mail address in the sender information box but it didn't work.
Has anyone came across such a problem?
I know this issue involve SAP, Apple and Microsoft and each one will point the other for the blame. But any help will be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Emre,
Though this appears on Mobile, this belongs to Webi Product team. As the schedule of Webi reports and the email output would be controlled by them. They can work with Apple to identify the cause and fix the defect. Hence, you can post your question in SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence
I would also recommend that you contact Webi Product Support through the official channel http://support.sap.com/incident

Can Tivoli (TWS) be used for scheduling WebI reports in BO XI 3.1?

I am trying to figure out if it is possible to schedule WebI reports to refresh using TWS?
We are using BO XI 3.1 SP2 deployed on unix and would like to use TWS to refresh WebI reports that are built on SAP BW Bex queries. Does anyone have any experience scheduling WebI reports using TWS with XI 3.1? Any information you can provide would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Derek

Hi
I can think of two options:
1) You define in BO CMC external events and schedule your reports to wait for them. In the TWS you can schedule an OS script to create the file that triggers the BO external event. The reports will run only after the file is created.
2) You write a java program that uses the BOBJ SDK in order to schedule immediately your reports. In the TWS you create a scedule that starts the java program. (You can find examples how to use the SDK here http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/samples )

Scheduled webi reports fail, why? If I restart BO services they work again

Hello.
I'm having a problem with my scheduled Webi reports and I don't know what is causing it. I have some reports scheduled to run at 8:00 am, and are supposed to be sent to a determined e-mail. Last week it worked well and the reports were sent to their destination successfuly, then this week the same reports didn't reach their destination. I verified in the History option and all of them showed a Failed status. I checked the detail and this is what it shows:
Unexpected exception caught. Reason: [java.lang.NullPointerException: i_statusInfo is null.]
If I try to reschedule these reports or any other report or a new report I get the same error. The only way I can make the schedule option work again for my webi reports is restarting BusinessObjects services.
But I guess this is not the right solution.
What can I do? How can I determine what is causing my scheduled webi reports fail?
What does this java.lang.NullPointerException: i_statusInfo is null message mean?
Is there a way I could track the service that is failing? which BO service is the service that manage the Schedule reports?
Any help is welcome.

Scheduling WebI reports in BusinessObjects 4.0 date prompts

will SAp Business Objects 4.0 include some kind of feature to allow people to schedule webi reports in an easier way if the report conatins date prompts? For example if my report has 2 dates start date and end date prompts, it's logical if I want to schedule it to be refreshed every month I don't want to keep it scheduling with the same start date and end date for ever. I want them to change depending on the month.
I know there are some things that can be done at universe level, but what if a user doesn't have rights to modify the universe? It would be more useful to have some option in the schedule window to make the values change depending on some basic conditions.
Or at least if profiles settings could help to do that by selecting in the list objects instead of fixed values from the list, it could help too.

Hi,
This looks like to be a request for future product enhancements.
You need to log an Enhancement Request via Idea Place for the feature/functionality you would like to see in BI4.0. Please follow steps in the attached SAP note [1515837 - How To: Enhancement Request Process - Idea Place |https://bosap-support.wdf.sap.corp/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/sno/ui_entry/entry.htm?param=69765F6D6F64653D3030312669765F7361706E6F7465735F6E756D6265723D3030303135313538333726]. If this idea is already submitted, you will need just to add your vote to it.

Hi gurus,
As I schedule webi report as pdf and use DateTime placeholder I receive it as "2014-03-02-22-32-44" which is in the format yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss.

Schedule webi reports to Sharepoint

Hi,
I am working upon BO XI R3.1 and we need to schedule webi reports to Sharepoint. I have scheduled reports via Email before but have never tried scheduling it to Sharepoint. I have two questions here:
1. Can we schedule webi reports to Sharepoint successfully? (I heard something about unmanaged disk option in CMC but have no clue about it)
2. Do we need SAP BO Sharepoint integration kit to achieve this?
Also, I am not sure what advantages does Integration Kit provides, is it required for scheduling purpose or not.
Request you to help me. Thanks in advance !!

Thanks for your reply Ingo.
So, should I consider anything to choose between regular scheduling and Integration kit? I just have the requirement to schedule reports to Sharepoint. Is there any specific reason for using integration kit? I have to propose one solution.
Thanks for your time !!

Schedule webi report u2013 report should go under Public Folders in Info View

Hi Experts,
Schedule webi report
Destination -> File System u2013 what directory path I should give to move reports under Public Folders?
Is that possible to give the path of Public Folders as Destination directory?
Regards,
Sasi

To see the latest instance of a report automatically you can change the default from view to view latest instance.
CMC > Applications > Infoview and select View the latest successful instance of the object
Then when you double click on the report, it will open the latest instance.
BUT if the report doesn't have an instance, eg only be run manually not via the schedule, the report won't open. You have to right click and select view.
I've seen either here or in another forum that in XI 2 it will automatically open the report if it doesn't have an instance but in XI 3.1 it doesn't.
