Webi Report Scheduling

Hi All,
I want to know when we schedule a Webi report, which server is affected (mean Webi Processing server,Adaptives server).
Please advise..

Hi Manoj,
When you Schedule a web Intelligence e Report, Adaptive Job Server will be responsible to do the task.
If you go to Report History  you can see the Instance Status and you can find out the Job server Used for that particular instance by clicking on the Status.

Webi Report scheduling issue

Dear Experts,
I have webi reports which are running fine when i refresh the query from query panel. When i am scheduling the report it is failing.
My webi reports are connected to the Bex Queries using OLAP Connections which is working fine for other reports.
I am getting the following error message
"Can not connect to the source olap com.sap.conn.jco.JCoException: (103) JCO_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: Access key access is no longer possible"
Because of this BW Credentials are getting locked and user cannot able to access the BW System.
Kindly help us getting this issue solved.
Thanks in advance.
THanks & Regards,
Archit Sarwal

Hi Archit,
Try this...
Logon to Central Management Console (CMC) with an Administrator user.
Click on OLAP Connections.
Right click on the connection and click User Security.
Assign Full Control to the User on the connection.

WEBI Report Scheduling based on event.

Hello All,
We have a requirement to schedule a webi report based on event generated by ETL loads.
Scheduling works fine based on events.My requirement is If event is not generated we want to schedule the report at specific time.Lets assume event will generate between 10 Am to 11 Am.If event is not generated report will not schedule,but we want schedule report after 11 Am.
Please let us know if any one have solution for the above
Thanks,
Kumar

You can schedule your report based on the file event to look for the trigger file till 11 AM. If the file not generated, you can use the below VB Script to generate the file in the desired location by 11 AM.
Private Sub writeDebug(ByVal x As String)
    Dim path As String = System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments)
    Dim FILE_NAME As String = path & "\mydebug.txt"
    MsgBox(FILE_NAME)
    If System.IO.File.Exists(FILE_NAME) = False Then
        System.IO.File.Create(FILE_NAME).Dispose()
    End If
    Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME, True)
    objWriter.WriteLine(x)
    objWriter.Close()
End Sub
Script does the below operations:
It will verify if the file already exist for the day.
If it does not exist, it will overwrite the old file with the new one. If already exist, the script will end.
Script contains "Debug" function which will be helpful for your analysis.
Add this program to your scheduler to run everyday at 11 AM.

Filter condition for Webi report scheduling

Hello,
I have a Webi report with a query that has one filter (it states the starting and ending date of data to be displayed in the report). This report has to be scheduled but it has to contain different filter values each time the report is run.
I'd like to know if there is a way to schedule this report taking into account that each iteration of the scheduling process has to use different values for the filter.
On the same way, the Webi report has a XY diagram with a text title made up of a fixed literal label. Is there any way to inject the text title from the scheduling process (in order to avoid editing the report before each scheduling iteration occurs)?
Thanks a lot!

Victor,
one filter (it states the starting and ending date of data to be displayed in the report). This report has to be scheduled but it has to contain different filter values each time
There are a couple of ways to handle this requirement, depending upon other environmental factors. Here is one method, but it requires the ability to update/change data at the database using an external tool (anything that permits processing transactional information).
You can set up an additional table with two columns: starting_date and ending_date
Someone updates the additional table as appropriate before the next run will kick off in the schedule.
The tricky part is in getting your current report to incorporate the other table, and for this you may need to either create a view in your database or a derived table in your universe. Here is the rudimentary SQL structure that might work for you:
create table start_end_dates (beginning_date datetime,end_date datetime)
go
insert into start_end_dates values ('9/1/2009','9/30/2009')
go
create table my_data (col_a char(1),month_id datetime)
go
insert into my_data values ('a','9/1/2009')
insert into my_data values ('a','10/1/2009')
go
select *
from my_data
where month_id >= (select beginning_date from start_end_dates) and
month_id <= (select end_date from start_end_dates)
The start_end_dates table is the one that receives a single input, populated with the starting and ending date of data. The "my_data" table is an example of how the source table can call in the "parameters" of the "start_end_dates" table to fulfill its quest for filtering (additional filtering on other things within your scenario can also be applied).
Once you can get the mechanics of the SQL to work for you (either in the universe or a view), then you can set the report up to work hand-in-glove with the above structure. In the report, you can either have a second data provider that selects on the "start_end_dates" table, storing that data in the report and displaying it somewhere, or you could use the min(month_id) and max(month_id) concepts and display that somewhere too.
Thanks,
John

Webi Report Schedule failing in BI Launchpad

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has come across this error message when trying to schedule a webi report in BI Launchpad.
Firstly, the webi report refreshes successfully in BI Launchpad. The source for the Webi report is an OLAP universe that was migrated from a 3.1 environment into BI 4.0.
The error message occurring when scheduling is:
'while trying to invoke the method org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject.eClass() of an object loaded from local variable 'eObject' '
I haven't been able to find any documentation on this error message on a failed scheduled.
If anyone has an idea what might be causing this I would appreciate the help.
Many thanks,
Ainsley

Hi,
- Does your souce BEx have SAP Variables coming through to the OLAP universe as Filters?
- Does your WebI document's dataprovider have filters defined as Prompts in the query panel ?
- or, I wonder if 'local variable' may refer to a report-level variable ? i doubt it. i imaging it's the SAP VAR.
I know that these 2 types of prompts have been troublesome on occasions with scheduling.
Please check Note 1602665 - SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 SP02 Patch 2.6 Release Notes
and refer to the fixed issues .pdf attached
there are a number 3 / 4 corrections for scheduling webi with prompts ontop of bw

Webi/Report : Schedule : Destination configuration

In the Report : Schedule : Destination of Webi, is it possible to disable the "Use the Job Server's defaults" check box in ?

Oh, I am not sure if you can simply change an config file to achieve this. We had to modify the JSP code behing the schedule page to make the tweaks. But I could be wrong and there might be an easier way to do it that I don't know of.
If at all you want to play around with the JSP code, I think you might want to look at the file -
desktoplaunch\InfoView\schedule\destination_include.jsp

Server Side Trust and Webi Report Scheduling via Portal

Hello,
I have opened a similar thread about Server Side Trust and webintelligence reporting through the portal a few months ago.
At the time, we had some complaints about users that were getting SSO errors after 8 hours when scheduling WeBi Report through the SAP Portal.
Basically, the users connect to the Portal and then FROM the Portal, to a BOI view pointing to the Infoview.
Then, after investigatinon, it was my understanding that the WebI Reports should be scheduled through an Infoview token and not a portal token. In concrete terms Server Side Trust had to be implemented between the SAP BW Backend and the BOE 3.1 Server.
And after that the users who wanted to schedule WebI reports should connect to the Infoview directly (using their SAP BW credentials) to generate an Infoview Token.
Scheduling Webi reports from the Portal will not be solved by implementing Server Side Trust, since it is only a matter of time before the the Portal token expires ( 8 hour by default).
Now, I have configured the server side Trust between our BOE 3.1 SP2 and our BW 701 system, SNC configuration, PSE generation, exchange of certificats , etc ...
I did some scheduling tests connecting directly to the BO Infoview and it works.
But of course, now I am being told by the users that this solution is not acceptable.
The Portal being the entry point of our Infrastructure, they don't want to connect to the Infoview to schedule their reports.
So I opened a SAP customer call to try to have an official and clear statement from SAP but I never obtained it.
I had a look at my SAP BO courses but I am still confused
For example according to SAP BO100 , server side trust should be implemented when ;
"BOE client session authenticated using Single sign on using SAP token
(Enterprise Portal) and SAP reports are being scheduled at a future point in
time (after token expiry date)."
Anyone can help me to clear my mind ?
Thank you
Best Regards

Hi,
first of all lets separate the UI portion from the technical portion.
on the technical side:
yes for scheduling the Web Intelligence document you will need Server side trust
on the UI side:
- scheduling is part of InfoView
- scheduling is part of the KM integration with the portal
if that is not accepted from a UI point of view from the user you can create your own application to schedule documents using the SDK.

There is no command line interface for scheduling reports, so you're going to have write a program to do the actual scheduling. I recommend this program up so that you can pass in the report ID or name and the parameters. That way you can use one program to schedule all reports. Your scheduling system would then run a .bat file that contains the specific information for the report being scheduled.

Cannot connect to the OLAP source - when Scheduling WebI Report

Hi,
I am confused by seeing the above mentioned error on random days....
Scenario - WebI report scheduled daily:
Some days the report works fine and other days it is not processing correctly but gives me this error message "Cannot connect to the OLAP source".
Our connection is via BICS and it is SSO. Data Source is BW and we use BEX.
Person who scheduled report has admin rights, our version is 4.0 SP7 P5.
Please advise if anyone has faced this issue and if there is a solution, did try the community but only found that the key store was a problem but that was previous versions.
Any help or input is much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Sarat.

Hi Sarat,
This problem can occur for multiple different reasons, so it's hard to give an advice for such symptom. Could you look at trace files from SemanticLayer component (it is hosted in APS with DSLBridge service), you should find clearer errors which can then be analyzed. There is no need to activate logs if it is still at level 'Unspecified', errors have level high enough to be output by default.

Schedule a Webi report

Hi All,
I am getting error "A database error occured. The database error text is: Failed to execute MDX query. Reason: Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: <unknown>, value <unknown>). (WIS 10901) " while scheduling a Webi report.
Could anyone help me regards the error?

This error message means the parameter assigned to the prompt of the report while scheduling, was not correct.
Please check the parameters in the prompt section while scheduling and assign proper values.

Getting error while schedule a webi report

Hi All,
I am getting error "A database error occured. The database error text is: The supplied XML is not valid. [Measures].[4KO5AOUTL3ZKE55WDDOMUB0AI]. (WIS 10901) " while scheduling a Webi report.
Could anyone help me regarding the error?
Regards

Hi Manoj,
Go to the controls tab in parameters in universe designer and there increase the "Limit size of result set to" and "limit execution time to".
Also in webi go to the edit query and increase the "maximum rows retrived" and "maximu retrievel time".
I think this should avoid partial results.
Thanks,

Want to schedule WebI report for End date of Prior Month

Hello Experts,
We have WebI report created on top of Bex Query, We have key date as prompt for the report. Can we schedule the webi report for key date as last date of prior month, so if current month is February, my key date should be Jan 30 2011. I am not sure if this is possible?
Thanks,
Ravi

You need to apply two FM to get the end day of the month.
First you need to apply FM MONTHS_PLUS_DETERMINE. This will give you the date after 3 months.
            CALL FUNCTION 'MONTH_PLUS_DETERMINE'
              EXPORTING
                MONTHS        = 3   " << for 3 months
                OLDDATE       = l_start_Date   " << 12/01/2007
             IMPORTING
               NEWDATE       = l_3_Date. " << 02/01/2008
Then call the FM RP_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS . this will give you the end date of the month
CALL FUNCTION 'RP_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS'
    EXPORTING
      day_in            = l_3_Date " << 02/01/2008
    IMPORTING
      last_day_of_month = l_3_Date " < 02/29/2008
    EXCEPTIONS
      day_in_no_date    = 1
      OTHERS            = 2.
Call both FMs again to get your another date(after 4 months).
