Accessing BEx Information Pane (cube meta data) via WEBI

All,
BEx query analyzer shows meta data on the info cube or BEx query.  This includes the Author, the last time the cube was refreshed, the info provider name, last refreshed etc.
A customer wants to know how to bring this information into the BOBJ world, particularly Webi.
Can anyone help?

Hi Ingo,
My name is Lisette and I am the BI consultant working with the SAP BOBJ team.   When you execute a query in BEx you can click on the Information button and get the following information.

For the POC we need to be able to show this data on the WEBI or Crystal report.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks for your assistance.

  • Question about meta-data of Web Dynpro ABAP / Web Dynpro Java

    Hello together,
    everywhere I can read, that Web Dynpro meta-data is platform independent.
    I´ve read into a book, that the meta-data of Web Dynpro Java is saved as XML and
    that Web-Dynpro Java Runtime generates runnable classes and sourcecode out of this...
    - What about Web-Dynpro ABAP? Is Meta-code in ABAP is saved in XML too?
    - just for theory: is ist possible to take the meta-data of a Web-Dynpro ABAP component and
      generate a Web-Dynpro Java Component out of this?
    I tried to find it out but i failed... In table WDR_RR_LOAD (is this the right one?) I found only the
    field data. But this is a RAWSTRING and I don´t know how to make I "readable".
    I must know this for my thesis for my studies, not for work.
    Thank you very much !!!!
    Greetings,
    Oliver

    Me again,
    I am not sure if I understood it right...
    The meta-data which describes the visual part of a view is saved as XML and
    would be rendered i.e. in the webbrowser... Right?
    What about the meta-data of the Web Dynpro application?
    Is this meta-code into an other structure or XML too?
    Thank you very much.
    Many Greetings,
    Oliver

    Hi Mark,
    We are implementing bi-ip w/support pack 11.  We have a current situation that needs solved:
    1.  Ability to cut and past from excel into IP via the web and excel interface
    2.  Ability to upload data from excel in IP via the web or excel interface.
    You mentioned  in your comments below:  "Also you can directly post data from an Excel file to BI-IP without any programming".  Can you send me more information on this solution?  Also, is there an how-to paper on using the "old" file upload solution from BPS?  We never implemented bps.

  • HFM - log that shows if a user has loaded data via web form or excel load.

    I can see any data loads that are coming from FDM, but is there a log that shows any data entered into HFM via web forms or submitted through an excel file? Any input is appreciated.
    Thanks

    You could enable Data Audit to capture data changes made by users, though this will not capture which method users chose to change the data. That is, HFM can show that data changed, and who changed it, but cannot tell whether the data was changed through a form, grid, smart view, or FDM. If you want to prevent users from changing data through forms, grids, or smart view, you can secure those input methods, but you cannot capture which one is used.

  • Bridge CS4 Meta data in web album

    Hi,
    I am looking all over for a way which makes it posibly to show ONLY the description meta data in a web album created with adobe bridge cs4.
    I have been able to have a text for each image in a slide show in every free web album I have tryed. Since I started to use bridge, I have been happy to use it for rating images and stuff like that. But can it really be that Meta data is so difficult to handle in bridges web album?... I think only one of the templates makes it possible to check 'Show metadata', but this is ALL metadata.. very many metadata, and definately not what I want. It can not be the case that bridges web album can not show a description or title only from an images meta or can it? Can anyone help me, have I missed something.
    Hope someone can help me with some hints.. is it possible to make a web album including only description Meta data for each image?
    Thank you very much
    Regards
    Jens

    hmm, maybe bridge is not the right choice after all, maybe Fireworks are better.. but still wondering why this simple possibility is not present in bridge,..

  • Option to Add Meta Data to Web Page on V3 dashboard

    Where is the option to add mata date in the V3 dashboard?

    Title Tags & SEO
    I worked fine for me but if you want to be sure you can put you own header information into the HTML in your page. I’m going to ramble on because other people may find this information useful
    Things have change with search engines and the only thing that is important is your title information in the header and how you write it.
    First let's talk about meta tags. Meta elements are HTML or XHTML elements used to provide information about a web page for the search engines and website users.
    Such elements must be placed as tags in the head section of a HTML document. These elements are the:
    Title Tag,
    Description.
    Keywords (No one uses these anymore and you can get spam "points" for overuse of keywords on Bing and Google, so just forget them. If you have keyword stuffed "spammy" ones, you probably want to fix those.)
    For now it’s back to the basics with SEO! And nothing is more basically important to a site than properly written title tags. You know the ones that used to appear in the little blue bars in your browsers. Most modern browsers try to conceal these, though that doesn't stop them being helpful!
    So what is a title tag? Why is it important to SEO, and how do you write the darn things?
    A title tag is THE MOST IMPORTANT SINGLE TAG in your page. It tells the search engines what your page is about. It is still vitally important to paid or organic SEO strategy.
    Think of title tags like the title of the chapter of a book. It tells people and search engines what your page is about.
    Title tags are also part of what makes people decide whether to visit your site when it shows up in the search results. The title tag should contain important keywords to help the search engine determine what the page is about.
    NOTE: Every experienced SEO has their own unique methods to doing this, so I'm going to give you best practices along with some of my methods
    When you do a search on Google, the information that shows up is in the title tag so you need to write title tags for humans but format them for search engines.
    Every page on your site has an opportunity to rank high on search engines for a particular keyword,
    Quick Checklist
    When you're writing your title tag what do you need to know? Here's a quick checklist with some tips on how to write optimized title tags:
    Length: Title tags should be a maximum of 70 characters long, including spaces.
    Keyword Placement: Your most important words (keywords) need to be first in your title tag, with your least important words being last in the title tag (most to least). 
    Keyword Separation: Use pipes | to separate important (keyword) phrases (no commas, underscores, dashes or any other punctuation unless the keyword is written that way).
    Wording: Keep your important phrases short and simple. Leave out words that would make it read like a sentence. (e.g., and, if, but, then, etc.)
    Company Name: If your company name is not part of the important (keyword) phrases, put it at the end of the title tag or leave it out. If it is part of your important words, put it as the first words in the title tag. Some SEOs will tell you to leave it out. You can leave it in for branding purposes – so people will see the brand and click. This isn't valid for all sites.
    DON'T DUPLICATE Title Tags: They must be written differently for every page. Don't mass replicate your title tags.
    Make It Relevant: Title tags must be written to be descriptive of the content on the page. (e.g., the About Page would be:
    About | Important Keywords | Company Name
    or
    Important Keywords | About Us | Company Name.
    Google & Title Tags
    Sometimes Google doesn't like your title tag. In fact, sometimes Google thinks it can pick a better one, so it will rewrite the tag for you. There are several places it might get this information, most of them you won't prefer to one you crafted yourself.
    While there isn't any assurance your title tag won't be replaced, make sure you write a title tag that is page related, content descriptive, short and sweet, and not keyword stuffed. This is your one defense.
    Keyword Stuffed Title Tags
    You've probably come across badly written title tags that try to rank for everything or repeat a word over and over. Keyword stuffing is the worst offense when it comes to title tags. (You will be penalize)
    Say your site is trying to rank for Blue Bells and Yellow Bells. Many times you will see the main keyword repeated multiple times across the title tag. It might appear like this:
    Blue Bells, Yellow Bells, All Types of Bells | Bells Bells and More | Doors.com
    This is bad title tag writing. You don't need to repeatedly write the keyword. Google especially can pick up the keywords like your eyes can read them, so you would best to rewrite this as
    Blue & Yellow Bells | Doorbells | Doors.com
    We removed the extra words, combined the products (if possible you would split these products to separate pages, a blue and a yellow, but this isn't always feasible or desirable) and added a category keyword which would appear in the middle of the title tag on all doorbell related page titles, then end it with the domain name (again this is for branding purposes – there are also good reasons to not do this, it depends on the SEO).
    Now our title tag is short, sweet, simple, and to the point. We have also categorized it and added in branding for good measure.
    We also took out the word "and" and replaced it with an ampersand (&) so that you don't accidentally relate the two items and make Google think you want people who are looking for Blue AND Yellow Bells.
    And there you go, a basic lesson in title tag writing. This can be the most challenging and fun part of any SEO's work! Or should that be "Inbound Marketer's" work?
    Some Title Tag Writing Examples
    Let's look at a few examples of writing title tags with actual examples.
    If your important words (keywords) were "Charlie Sheen" and "Winning" your title tag would be written in that order:
    Charlie Sheen Winning
    Charlie Sheen would be the first words in the tag.
    Now what if we had more than one set of words? What if my keywords were "Charlie Sheen Winning" and "Tiger's Blood"? Your title tag would still be written with "Charlie Sheen Winning" as the first words in the tag. Then you would add a pipe | and "Tiger's Blood" as the second phrase:
    Charlie Sheen Winning | Tiger's Blood
    Don't use hyphens, underscores, commas or any other type of character – just pipes.
    Now what if we had more than one set of words and a company name we were not worried about optimizing for (the company name was not part of the reputation issue). If my words were "Charlie Sheen Winning" and "Tiger's Blood" and "CBS", you would separate these three phrases with pipes, with CBS last and farthest from the beginning, which Google sees as the least important phrase:
    Charlie Sheen Winning | Tiger's Blood | CBS
    The company name can be repeated in every title tag as long as it as not part of the important words and appears at the far right end of the title tag.
    What about sentences? Couldn't you just write a sentence such as "Charlie Sheen Says Winning And Tiger's Blood And Gets CBS Riled Up"? You could, but those extra words like "says", "and", and "riled", dilute your important words and make them less important to content, so best to keep it short, simple, and clear. Leave out the extra words.
    Once you’re finish with all of this its time to submit you pages to the search engines. You will need to create an XML & HTML sitemap.

    http://www.justdreamweaver.com/blog/2008/07/webassist-surveyor-build-html-and-xml-sitemaps -in-dreamweaver/
    Don’t forget to check each page ranking monthly and make the necessary tweaks to your title information as needed. (Each page needs to rank for a unique key word on your site)
    I’m going to stop now but that’s only the start of organic search engine optimization.

  • Send complex data via web service : discards parts of complex object sent

    Hi,
       I have to send an object to the server via a web service. The object A (say) that is being sent has a lot of properties. Now A has an array collection of objects of type B which in turn has an array collection of type C and so on..
    The problem is some of the data is not a part of the xml data sent out.
    I have included the snapshots of the data given to the web service and data sent out as seen in the network monitor below.
    Object sent to the web service
    xml data sent out as seen
    in the request body in the Network monitor
    The object in red rectangle above is of type "Slide" which has an object "caption" of type Caption and other simple properties like slideId (int), slideNumber(int) and storyBoardId(int).
    The object in the red rectangle is the xml data of "Slide" corresponding to the object in the red rectangle in the image to the left.
    Notice that the entire object "caption" has been dropped while the simple properties have been represented.
    I am stuck and cant find a solution to this issue or a work around
    any pointers would be really helpful.
    thanks in advance

    Posting more images .. have simplified the object a lot but still have the same issue.
    1. The request object description as given in the asmx [seen in the browser]
    2. The request object's description as given in the wsdl [seen in browser]
    3. The object that is being sent to the web service -- as seen in the debugger of Flash builder
    4. The object data in xml being sent out of Flex client -- as seen in network monitor of Flash Builder
    NOTE : The object data as seen in the network monitor doesnt have the caption" part at all! whereas the debugger shows the caption.
    5. The object recieved at the web method  of the web service -- as seen in the debugger of visual studio running the service
    If anyone has any work around for this pl let me know.

  • Can not access DVR or program DVR to record via web or apps

    I can not access my DVR remotely via a PC or via the apps.  I get a message that says cannot connect to your DVR right now, try again later.  It has been like this for weeks.  I called tech and they reset all the boxes, the ONT, I removed the COAX etc. rebooted and cleared router.  The box can be seen online though just not the DVR.  Also, on screen caller id does not work and the fix application does not fix it either.

    It seems like I lose web access to the DVR every week.
    I either have to unplug the DVR or have Verizon send a reboot signal. Even that doesn't work every time. It is a really annoying and inconvenient problem.

  • IDOC ADAPTER Issue, some meta data loads, some doesn't

    Hey all,
    I just started trying to setup the IDOC adapter connection between our R/3 system and our XI system. I decided to try and pull in some meta data via IDX2 to start. The weird thing is that I get some IDOC structures successfully, but not others. I think it has to do with some requirnments that I am missing on the R/3 side. For instance, outside of setting up the RFC connection, creating the tRFC port and the partner profile for the Logical system what else is needed. Do I have to assign the basic type to the outbound partner profile to access it? Do I have to actually create IDOCS for the basic type? Just curious. Here are the details of what I have done so far. A lot of this I pulled from other peoples postings here on the forum, I think I am just missing a few steps!
    Our current configuration is as follows:
    SAP R/3 Enterprise to post IDOCs to XI .
    - R/3 Configuration:
    logical system created: DXICLNT200
    we20 : Partner Type LS: partner number: DXICLNT200.
    we21 : IDOC Ports: Transactional RFC: Port name: DXICLNT200. IDOC record type SAP Release 4.x. RFC Destination : DXICLNT200
    sm59 : create RFC destination : DXICLNT200. Target host: the XI box. Logon security: Client 200. XIAPPLUSER. PASSWORD (for XIAPPLUSER). Testing the connection works.
    - XIHOST Configuration:
    sm59 : created RFC destination to DDSCLNT210. Gateway options used, NO Client or User specified, are these needed, if so, is there a particular user to use.
    Test connection works.
    IDX1 : Created Port - DDSCLNT210. client 210. RFC destination DDSCLNT210.
    IDX2 : Able to load metadata for IDoc Type CHRMAS01, of port DDSCLNT210. NOT ABLE TO IMPORT CREMAS03 or MATMAS03!
    Any help is greatly apprciated!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    There was a problem in the RFC connection, the target host was not populated correctly. All meta data can now be pulled.
    However, I am curious about where the meta data for CHRMAS and CLSMAS came from. the RFC connection was NOT working, so where could it have pulled this information from????

  • Songbird Damaged iTunes Meta Data and Recently Added List. Best way to fix?

    Hello, Apple forums.
    A while ago (Long enough to fix some of the broken Meta data), I tried out Songbird as an alternative for when I'm gaming and want a little extra resources.
    Unfortunately, I set it up to sync between iTunes and Songbird, and Songbird "updated" my iTunes information and removed META data in the process for any song played on Songbird.
    It also had the recently added moved to "Songbird > Recently Added," and proceeded to fill it with every song in my library.
    My music is stored on a Western Digital MyBook external HDD (320GB) formatted to FAT32.
    I have fifteen playlists, and would like to retain ratings and play counts on the songs.
    My library reads "8196 songs, 19:15:40:31 total time, 50.13"
    Granted, a couple hundred of these are the ones missing the META data and are broken entries (IE has all the data listed but does not have the file where it should be) and their META-less version added from %library%\music\unknown artists\unknown album\
    (The tracks retain their real name with the track number prefixing them, it's just a matter of going through all of the songs and matching them up)
    Given that this is as it is, how should I go about this?
    I would also like to keep the apps for my 2nd Gen iPod Touch (iOS Pois0ned 4.2.1).
    All music is either imported from a CD or an independent artist.
    I don't have access to all of the CD's, nor do I particularly want to manually re-add everything.
    I am more concerned with the recently added playlist being fixed! I understand that I will have to cut my losses on the META data!

    I thought you said Songbird had removed metadata. Most files carry metadata in a tag. If a file "goes missing" because another program chooses to relocate it iTunes will retain an entry in the library with all that information. The FindTracks script makes a bash at locating the moved files in a number of alternate locations, including the unknown artist/unknown album folder or the main Music folder. If the files have actually had metadata removed, but have a tag, then iTunes will read the damaged data and update itself. Not necessarily what you want. For files that are in a logical artist/album layout but don't have tags you could be better off repairing tags first with, for example, MediaMoney's AutoTag from Filename feature.

  • Automating meta data changes

    Hi. This is my first time trying to automate something like this, so any help is greatly appreciated. I have about 1000 jpeg files and a text file that lists each file name followed by a title, date, etc... I am looking for a way to automatically write that information to the meta data for each file. Like I said, I don't have experience with this, so I really don't know where to start. Thanks for any help. I'm using Mac OS, btw.

    Exif
    This is a command line program for manipulating metadata. It's the tool I would use for this task. If you have any Unix/Liniux/etc... background it's probably the best route to take. But you can use the XMPScript stuff that comes with PS/JS if you really want to, especially if you want to get familiar with the environment and do more work with it.

  • Elements organizer: Geo Tags - why not in the meta-data ?

    Hi again,
    Some of my Photos have geotags (i.e. GPS-Information) in the meta data. Elements Organizer finds it - all right.
    Now when i put a Geotag to a photo (without GPS-Information in the meta data) with elements organizer it also works, but there is still no Information in the GPS meta data.
    Why is that?
    Where is the GPS Information stored, when not in the metadata?
    Thanks to all!

    elenah
    I do use the Elements Organizer, but not to great extent.
    So, please review the following and then let me know if you have been there and found that already.
    If I setup a photo GeoTag in the Elements Organizer 13/13.1, after that I see
    a. The description of the GeoTag itself in Tags/Place Tags
    b. When I select the GeoTagged image in the Elements Organizer browser, the Image Tags information
    for that photo is shown at the bottom of the Information/Image Tags column at the right.
    c. The GeoTab information appears as a caption under the zoomed in photo in the Elements Organizer Browser.
    If the GeoTab image is saved as in Photoshop Elements 12/13.1 and imported back into the Elements Organizer, the GeoTagging is recognized.
    I do not see GeoTab information elsewhere in the Elements Organizer nor in the Photoshop Elements Editor
    (File Info or other) at that point.
    Please remind me if you have Photoshop Elements 13/13.1 as well as the Premiere Elements 13/13.1. I need to explore
    the possibility of adding metadata into the program by pointing to Photoshop Elements Editor/File Menu/File Info. If that is at
    all possible, it looks like you are facing creating xmp templates. Have never been there and done that.
    In the Elements Organizer itself, I suspect what we do not see is being supplied by the Elements Organizer catalog behind
    the scenes. But, please check out the Elements Organizer 13 Help PDF Chapter 6 Adding Metadata to see if there is anything
    there that you do not already know.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/elements-organizer_reference.pdf
    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/using/file-information.html
    For the best possible answer and not assumptions and any unlikely scenarios from me, you are probably best served putting this GeoMapping question before the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum people if you do not get some Adobe help on this.

  • Photoshop Meta Data File Sizes

    I am using meta data "description" menu to add meta data to web images.
    The basics:
    title
    description
    keywords
    copyright
    Thats is about it for my application....so far and like I say it is just for web images at this point.
    At any rate to me surprise I did not realize how much the meta data added to file size.
    I had assummed it was minimal but in fact that is not the case. Meta data ends up adding a lot.
    Question:
    So is there a way in Photoshop to see what the final file size will be with the meta data included as I have found, so far, is the image itself file size when I view the
    "Saving for Web & Devices" menu screen.
    Also tried the "Info" menu and neither indicate the meta data additons ito an images file size.
    One of the reasons is, of course, that I would like to get as many keywords in there as possible, as an example lets say this was the logo or site's header and they have a lot of different products.
    The more keywords the better the SEO results will be. I am sure this statement in itself is disputable but as of now 5/2013 it appears that way as far as SE's are concerned.
    Tested this extensively and the result were remakable, but that is another story.
    Any help or links to other infomration will be
    greatly appreciated
    thank you

    I new that was a big mistake saying it that way.
    I was focused on the file size issue.
    Trying to use more efficient effective keywords for an image that represents several products.
    As a simple example let's say the site focused on pencils, pens, and paper clips.
    So just using one of those keywords or even just two of them would be misleading to the site visitor.
    So in my opinion using all three would be most effective.
    I don't intend to use red pens, black pens, purple pens, metal paper clips, plastic paper clips, colored paper clips, etc.
    But that is not my point anyway. What a pain in the *** it will be to try this, save it, try that, save it, blah, blah, blah,etc.
    Thank you very muich for taking the time to respond and KNOW that I greatly appreciate your advise.
    You confimred my suspicions.
    I did find a PS CS5 Plug-in that would supposedly make this task easier but i am very suspicous, won't waste my time.
    Took a copy of the default "raw data" from the "File Info" menus and pasted that into BBEdit (XML or whatever) and the file size increased by about 3.5k with just the default "raw data", whoa.
    So with experimetation, as you suggest I may get and idea of size more or less.
    I was hoping I was making it harder than it was but Adobe has not responded either.

  • Can Business Objects Web Intelligency reports access NearLine Storage data Via BW Bex Query
