Use of "Group" & "Dimlist" property in generating reports.

Hi BPC Gurus,
I want to know how to make use of "Group" & "Dimlist" property in generating reports. I know these are the properties available in Appset Dimensions, but how to configure and how to call in report schedule is what I have not understood. Can anybody explain it with example.
Regards
KumarMG

Hi, just as Nilanjan said the DIMLIST property, actually is better to use as a "group" filter inside of business rules, however it is an available property that You can use into the "memberset options of any template, clicling with the rigth bottom of your mouse and selecting the "generator filter" option, it gonna let You create eficient templates.

Luis

How to use runtime datasource with crystal to generate reports

Hi,
I am new to BO Crystal reporting area. In my appliaction I am trying to use runtime data source. My objective is to use a 'List of Java ValueObject(class holding private attributes with public getter setter)s' as report database. I am using version BO XI 3.0.
As per development guide I have to perform the following steps to use runtime datasource
1. Put your manipulated data in a RowSet form that can be processed.
2. Create and fill an com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.IDataset object with the rowset data.
3. Add or set the data source with either the addDataSource or setDataSource methods of DatabaseController class.
API doesn't allow me to set/add "Record"/ "RecordBatch" to RowSet. Please help.
Please note: I have already tried and understand the usage of following types of data sources
1. All types of db conductivities as provided by Crystal designer "Database Expert"
2. Also I have successfully tried & tested transforming "List of Java VOs" into XML, TXT, CSV file format and use them as data source for crystal.

The DBMS is the same, we are only using a different database user to log on.
There is a separate db user for each server.
The EAR with a given datasource name in the entity EJBs should be deployed
on all 4 servers without changing descriptors.Interesting. And what is the value of using a different schema/user in the
different servers? I do believe that this configuration issue can be
achieved but I have not done it myself. I believe there is a way to
have some portions of a managed server's configuration by in a per-server
config file. That would be where you would define the pool. The DataSource
could also be there (with the same name for every server), or it could
be in the common one in the admin server.
I would file a support case to get this documented to show you how to
do what you want.

Best way to generate report on huge data table

Hi,
I am using Oracle11g.
I want to generate reports on transaction tables containing huge amount of data, on which very frequently DMLs are performing in real time.
i want to keep my report/result in RESULT_CACHE for 15 mins. active. whenever any insert/update runs on main tables the RESULT_CACHE is getting invalidated
my question is can i control/stop RESULT_CACHE relies on(table_name) invalidating, as Oracle11g invalidating RESULT_CACHE automatically.
my requirement is to not hit the main table again&again.
pls help..
Thanks in advance.

It sounds as if you're trying to avoid contention on a very busy large table while users are experimenting with relatively small fractions of the total data set. The type of thing you're doing is probably about the best approach - though it sounds as if you are not using global temporary tables which could save you a bit of time and contention when refreshing each private data set.
Ideally, though, you probably want a front end tool that does client-side caching - i.e. pulls the data into the front-end tool and lets the user rearrange it cosmetically there until the user explicitly requests a new trip to the database. I think Oracle Discoverer has (had) some capability in this area. What's the scale of the work the users are doing - can you give us a few scenarios about how much raw data they will extract and what they want to do with it before they refresh it ?

P.S. Oracle does have client-side caching technology - but your ability to use it is dependent on the tools you use. You might want to go over to one of the developer or BI forums to see what they say about this problem; they may give you a different perspective on it.

Using SQVI to generate report of open and released delivery schedule lines

All,
I'm using SQVI to generate an excel spreadsheet for some buyers to show open released schedule lines because they are a 1 line item per scheduling agreement company.
I used the logical database MEPOLDB instead of a table joint and pulled fields from EKKO(vendor, SA #,&purchasing group), EKPO(Material Number), EKEH(schedule line type), and EKET(delivery date, scheduled qty,previous qty).
Does this sound like I'll get the results I want on paper as long as I use the right selection criteria, because the report I'm getting isn't quite what I expect? I am unable to identify which lines are authorized to ship vs. trade-off zone, planning, etc. in the report thus far.

Hi Mark,
I have faced same requirement. I am not sure about transporting to TST and PROD. I done by this way.
After generating SQVI program in DEV , I assigned that program to a transaction and tested in DEV. Later i have regenarated SQVI in Production. then I assigned the generated Program to same transaction in DEV. And transported the Tcode assignment of program to Production..
About authorization , if its not sensitive report, BASIS can restrict at transaction level.
Regards,
Ravi.

Generate report through item property

SELECT T0.[ItemCode], T0.[ItemName], T0.[ItmsGrpCod], T0.[OnHand] FROM OITM T0 WHERE T0.[QryGroup1] = 'Y'

How to test a generated report in my application by using web test written with Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate

Hello,
My application generates report in different formats, such as: Adobe, Excel, XML, CSV and HTML
I have a webtest that makes all preparations, then generates a report.
In my application I have an option either to save the new generated report or open it.
When I try to open the new report, the web test doesn't see it and therefore not allows me to test it.
Please refer me to knowledge base or let me know how to resolve this type of issues.
Thanks.
qatm

Hi qatm,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this web performance test is used to verify the Http request/respond work correctly in VS, and the browser session is then displayed as a list of URLs in the Web Performance Test Editor.
However, as you said that you want to test a generated report in my application by using web performance test in VS2012 Ultimate. If the report is not as the Http format, so I think that it is not possible to test a generated report by using web performance
test.
Thanks for your understanding.

Issue while generating report using web.show_document with https

Hi All,
I am facing some issue while seeing the report using web.show_document as shown below:
https://ucrmskr.apac.nsroot.net:10301/forms/html/001725032_gca.rtf_
In this case the report opens directly without asking for me to save or open or cancel option
whereas if I hit
http://scrmskr.apac.nsroot.net:7801/forms/html/001725032_gca.rtf_
it asks for save or open or cancel option
so that I can save the report to my machine and open in wordpad format
The report generated in the first case is not coming in proper format

You must have the correct file extention. Here's what is wirtten in the detailed help of the function:
output filename specifies the filename of the generated report.
You must have the correct extension for the type of report to generate (.xml, .htm, .html, or .zip).

Subreport data use to group Values in Main Report

Hello,
I create a Subreport in my header to calculate values, the formula is based on a specific sorting and comparison of previous values.
In my main report I need to Group my values depending on the result. Because the group I will made on the Main Report can't be the same sorting of the SubReport.
SUB-REPORT
1 Paris (result "Capital")
2 Lille (result "Same Country of Paris")
3 Lyon (result "Same Country of Paris")
4 London (result "Capital")
5 Manchester ("Same Country of London")
MAIN-REPORT
Group
- CAPITAL (Paris, London)
- Same Country of London (Manchester)
- Same Country of Paris (Lille, Lyon)
My issue, is that I don't know how to group values on MainReport based on a formula Result of the SubReport
OR, may be there is a way to search on value in the sub-report ?

You can't use a shared variable to group on from a sub report in the main report since a shared variable evaluation time is done whileprintingrecords.
Try using a SQL expression to return the same result as the subreport would. You can then group on the SQL expression

Generating reports using RWServlet.class(Patch-12)

Sir,
We have configured the Apache Tomcat-3.2.2 to be the servlet engine for generating reports using oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet. Earlier we have been using, Patch-2. We have created many keys(cgicmd.dat) for the different reports that are there with the mostly needed report parameters(including PARAMFORM=YES). We call the report in the browser giving the URL "http://<machine_name>/oraclereports/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet?<key_name>". Now, the report page that gets generated is the parameter form. In the HTML source of this page, the form-submitting action is pointing correctly to URL "http://<machine_name>/oraclereports/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet.....". The parameter values are entered and the form submitted. The generated report is perfect..
Some days before, Patch-10 was installed. The RWServlet.class that comes along with this was copied to the oracle/reports/rwcgi folder in Tomcat. Now, when the same steps(calling report) as done before were done, the report is not getting generated, giving the output for no page found. The HTML source of the parameter form shows the form-submitting-action URL as "http://<machine_name>/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet.." omitting the "oraclereports" that was there earlier.
Now, we have installed Patch-12, copied the new RWServlet.class. For this case also, the same problem is now encountered. Now, have we have to do any additional configuration somewhere? The page that is generated, on giving the URL ""http://<machine_name>/oraclereports/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet/showenv?server=Rep60_MACHINENAME" is showing the SCRIPT_NAME as "/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet". Is it something to do with this? We tried putting SCRIPT_NAME as a user environment variable, and also by giving SET SCRIPT_NAME=/oraclereports. Still, the problem persists. Doesn't the HttpServletRequest class have some method that returns the SCRIPT_NAME, i.e, the path where the execution is being done? How could different versions of the same class oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet deployed with the same settings on the Tomcat servlet engine behave differently? Please help us on how to solve this problem..
Thank you,
Regards..
Ranjith

Hi,
Is there some way, i.e., by doing some Tomcat setting changes, that the RWServlet of Patch-10/12 can be made to work like RWServlet of Patch-2(with normal settings)? Please help..
Thank you,
Regards..

Using row-wise multi-value GROUP system session variable in report filter

The title says it all except I am using 10g OBIEE.
What I want to do is filter on the dynamic system session variable GROUP created in a row-wise initialization block.
The GROUP vriable is being set up correctly and it shows the user dynamically put into the correct groups in Answers.
(Using the admin tool and looking at the user session, only the initial authentication block variables show up.)
But if I want to filter using the value of GROUP it doesn't work.
The obvious way is to choose the filter icon, then choose Add -> Variable -> Session, enter GROUP, and then display results.
It comes back with no rows.
Any idea how to do this? I've tried lots of things but none of them work either producing no rows or an error.
This is the kind of Answers SQL this report is resulting in, which makes sense to me, but produces no rows.
SELECT "Package Virtual Group (Dim)"."Package Virtual Group" saw_0, "Contact (Fact)"."Contacts All Count" saw_1 FROM "Case/Transaction/ABC" WHERE "Package Virtual Group (Dim)"."Package Virtual Group" = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."GROUP") ORDER BY saw_0

866038 wrote:
Errors come from trying things that don't work.
For example, instead of =, using IN VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.GROUP) or @{session.GROUP} or lots of other things.
The question is this:
how can I filter a column in Answers using the GROUP session variable which had been initialized in a row-wise initialization block?
I can find no way to do it. Mostly it returns no rows.Hi,
we had a similar requirement, where we have an external name that has project number values. We used row wise initialization to capture all the projects that a user belongs to. Then, we applied the filters at the RPD level, instead of doing it at the report level. From you requirement I see that you are trying to filter the groups based on user login. When a user logs in, he will see the information about the groups that he only belongs to. Correct me if I am wrong here.
Assuming I am right about your requirement, providing the filter that you need apply in RPD.
On all the fact tables are joined to the Package Virtual Group dimension, apply the below filter.
case when 1=1 then (Dim)"."Package Virtual Group" END = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."GROUP");
The reason for use of case statement here is, it converts the logical sql to IN Clause, helping us acheive the exact query that we would want.
Please Award points if this helps.
Thanks,
