Use web template to open a report from a menu

Hi all,
I have created one web template where I have a role menu that shows all reports that are available to the user. When the user clicks on one of these reports, the report displays in a new window. So far everything is working fine.
But, I have also created another web template and I want the report that is displayed in a new window to use this template. How do I do this? I have been looking at the settings for the Role menu, but can't find anywhere to put the template name...
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks and regards,
Tove-Mette

Hello,
yes you can use the publish function, but only to add new entries.
In Transaction pfcg (not in WAD or BEx) in SAP GUI and then select your role at the tab "Menu" you can add/remove/maintain/organize your menu.
just click on a menu entry and take sth.like edit.
Then you will see a link if you didn#t find the string &template_id= the system will take the standard template (Tranaction spro), and you can easily add or change this parameter.
Hope that helps, please ask if you need further explanation.

EVfunctions fails using web template (without openning BPC Excel)

When we publish a template in the contant libary, it gives us a url. We use this url to access from a sap portal. Then, the template bottoms with macros that have EVfunctions don't work. We need to open the BPC Excel Client to run it.
¿How can we use a web template directly from the url? (without openning the BPC Excel Client)

maybe I'm explaining bad myself, or maybe I don't underestand your answer.
I will try to explain it step by step my problem,
we made a template, with evfunctions, like match-codes, refresh buttom, and another buttoms with Ev functions. This template is used to introduce user-values, so the users can fill the template and save the introduce data in the application.
We publish it with the content library, so we get a url. We put this URL in sap portal, like a link to this template.
When users or administrators wants to use this template by this link, it is opened with internet explorer, but the cannot use this template, because, those buttoms and functions doesn't works if we openned in this way. The only way to use this link is if we connect to the bpc excel client, before we use this link. But our question or problem is that we don't want to use in these way, we want to start introducing data and using the template directly from the url.
So our question is: is there any possibility to do that? and if it is, how can we apply it?
thanks for your answers.

Open OBIEE report from web application

Experts, I want to open OBIEE report from a web application. I have a question regarding the security here. Say I login as 'USER1' in web application, I would have to pass 'USER1' in nquser parameter. Correct? Also, this report has access to 'Sales Group' users only. So, does 'USER1' in web application need to be assigned to 'Sales Group'? Or, any user in the web application can open this report as long as I pass nquser in the GOURL.
thx,
parag

You don't need to specify group details.
When the report hits OBIEE, it will determine the permissions based on the nquser.
Hope it helps.

How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn. I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

Unable to open a report from Java SDK

Hi,
I am trying to open a report from the SDK in a java application. Here is the code :
package com.metrixware.test;

import com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportAppSession;
import com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument;
import com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException;
public class MyBoTest {
@param args
     public static void main(String[] args) {
         ReportClientDocument myDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
         try {
              ReportAppSession sess = new ReportAppSession();
              sess.setReportAppServer("AGIRC-DEMO");
              sess.initialize();
              myDoc.setReportAppSession(sess);
               myDoc.open("rassdk://D:/Document8.rep",OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
               System.out.println("Titre du doc : "+myDoc.displayName());
          } catch (ReportSDKException e) {
               // TODO Auto-generated catch block
               e.printStackTrace();
but i always get the following error stack (ReportSDKException) on the open method of the doc :

The document is at the right location on my local machine where my test is running. The RAS server is up and running on the CMS.
Can you help me on this problem.
Also i have another question. Can you tell me if i'll be able to read through this object the generated SQL select statement of the report.
Thanks.
Julien Pignatel

try the following instead:
ReportClientDocument myDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
myDoc.setReportAppServer("AGIRC-DEMO");
myDoc.open("rassdk://D:
Document8.rpt",OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
Also make sure that on RAS command you have added: -ipport "1566" -reportdirectory "D:/"
Please note:
1. Don't need to use ReportApSession class
2. what do you use Document8.rep, you cannot open a Deski document with RAS. RAS can be used only with crystal reports.
Hope that helps.

Unable to Open Bex report from SAP APO User Menu

Hi All,
I am an SAP APO consultant, and have not miuch expereice in BEx reporting. As APO uses Build in BI for reporting and pulling history from either external BW or R/3.
Now my issue all BEx reports we use are assigned ot my user menu and when I select a report, I would expect report to open but an excel sheet opens and closes and nothing happens. However I am able to open this reports from my desktop menu selecting Business explorer and Analyzer and linking my SAP system. I use Excel 2007 , Is this some compactibilty issue or is there anything I need to do?

Hi KV,
There's a couple of possible root cause why you dont see properly the Bex Report.
Can you share to me the APO version and the BW software component being used?
In case this is still in the 3.x, 4.x APO, I think, a separate BW add on is needed for you to run your BEx report properly. You can ask your basis team for this separate installation.
Btw, is this report working before, meaning was it pulled successfully already in the past?
Can you try doing this again in a separate workstation, as the BW add on is installed separately per workstation.
Its possible that this is also an auth issue that the user you are using is not capable enough to run BEx.
As of now, I have not encountered any Bex issue that is related with the Excel version, I have tried running Bex in Excel 2007 no issue also. I think it maybe more related with the OS you are using, if its in Vista already what I know is you need to add your excel as a trusted document before you can run bex fro Vista.
Let me think of other possibilities.
Hope this helps.

Unablo to open Crystal report from infoview

Hello Experts,
I have an issue while opening crystal report from BOBJ Infoview.
The report opens for some users and some users are getting this error.
" Internal error. Please contact your system administrator. [RCIRAS0216] ", the report is based on bw query and the users has access to this query,the users are able to execute other report based on same query.
Even some users who are administrator group members are getting this error.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Kish

It happens to only one report,but when i changed the option to "Use same database logon when report is run" in CMC, it resolved the issue.
But i was wondering why the report encountered this error for the same user for whom it was working good in the past.
Thanks,

Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11. Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11. Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open images directly from iPhoto. Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos in iPhoto 11. Nothing

Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11. Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
images directly from iPhoto. Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
in iPhoto 11. Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank.
And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6 to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
Please advise. Glenys

This may be of help to you:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

The problem i am having is when i go to open a file from the menu bar that as "FILE" is blackcolor

the problem i am having is when i go to open a file from the menu bar that as "FILE" is all black in color and i cant see what i'm picking how do i change that so i can see what i'm picking

Is that Photoshop? Depending on the version you could try to change the Color Theme (Edit | Preferences | General | Appearance).
If that does not help, you may have a better chance to get a useful answer if you ask in the Photoshop or Photoshop Elements forum.

How to call a report from a menu ?

I am converting 6i client/server forms to 9i.
I have a menu that has an option on it to run a report for each menu item selected using RUN_PRODUCT.
9i is making this obsolete, so how can I call a report from a menu (not a form) now then ?
In a form it is fine cos I just use the Report Object - a menu does not have this facility.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
so here is how this should be done:
1. Create a Reports node in the Forms module that uses the menu (you don't have to create one Reports Object for each report that you want to run)
2. From the menu, before calling Run_Report_Object() use Set_Report_Object_Property() to set the phsical file name of the Reports that should be executed. This is kind of best practice and does not have a performance hit.
There is a bug filed against Forms to extend the menu files with a reports Object node. This could require a change to teh file structure which is why we looking for Forms 10i to implement this. (If it turns out that we can have it without recompiling the menu modules then it may go into a patch set - however this seems unlikely from my point of view)

You can't access workspace directly through that port if you want to use other functionality, you should workspace through http://<workspace machine>:19000/workspace/
