Add variant to broadcast settings

Hello,
I want to add a variant to a broadcast setting. I have created a varaint in the bex analyzer and one in with RSRT. When I am creating the broadcast setting and want to use the variant, I can't see the variant. Does somebody how I can see the variant. Where must I create the variant?I want to use it for broadcasting.

Hi Zeyani,
If you want to use a variant in BEx Broadcaster,the variant needs to be created as Global variant.
This varaint will be visible for all the users.While you create a variant,uncheck "Save as User Variant" checkbox and provide the Description and Technical Name for the variant.This create a global variant.
While opening the query or workbook on which the global variant has been created,it will show the list of global varaints in the broadcaster.
NOTE : The local variant won't be listed while broadcasting.

Murali

  • Broadcasting Settings: Workbook Precalc. Variable Sequence

    Dear all,
    does anybody know how it is possible to change the sequence of the variables for the pre-calculation in the Broadcaster settings for distributing a Workbook with different Queries?
    Thanks a lot
    Dieter

    the sequence can be determined in the query level.
    but if multiple query user in workbook or web template, there is a logic defined in a note 1060735.
    regarding workbook Note 1416277 is describing a error correction.

  • Information Broadcasting settings Problem.

    Hi All,
    When we are trying to change the Information Broadcasting settings for some queries. We are not able to edit the existing settings as the message pops up saying system is not ready for change and asking us for the modifiable system. Is it possible to change the information broadcasting settings with out making the system modifiable?.
    Regards,
    Aditya.

    In which system you are trying to do this?
    I understand in DEV system, there should not be any problem of doing the system modifiable and then do the Broadcasting setting and then transport it to Qly and Prod.
    However Qly and Prod system are not supposed to be modifiable.

  • Information Broadcasting Settings (Dynamic Change or User Exit)

    Hi,
    We are working on BI7 and we have a need to print a cost centre specific report on different cost centre specific printers.
    This relationship of user to cost center to printer is stored in a custom table(Ztable) as given below:
    User Id         Cost Center              Printer
    Abc               2000                        XYZ
    It is easy to setup a setting in the Information Broadcasting and use it for printing. But problem is coming from the fact that it is a static setting and a new setting is required for each record of above custom table (Ztable).
    Also, if there is any change in custom table entry, which is linked with R3 source system then we need to do manual changes in the Information Broadcasting settings. There are more than 520 printer records in this Ztable.
    It could be better, if there was some way to use a single information broadcasting setting and use it with different parameters but I could not find any such option.
    Other possibility is to create the settings by a background job but I did not see any such possibility as well.
    Is there any user exit that can be used to manipulate Information Broadcasting settings in background?
    Thank you very much for your help!
    Praveen

    hi praveen,
    One of the important enhanceents in BI7 broadcasting was to "individualize the content based on master data"......
       for example....If the last field in your master data record was an email address...
                            you can  create a report,   filter by the UserID (1'st field) and email it...
       I didn't send it to a printer....but I am guessing it should not be much different than emailing...
    Good luck, BB

  • Changing Broadcaster settings

    Hello everybody,
    I would like to know if there is any way of changing the owner of a broadcaster setting.  I am the presently the owner of the settings and would like to transfer it to someone else (the client would like to keep the same technical name of the broadcaster settings).  Is there any way of doing this?  Any tricks?
    I tried by opening RSRD_SETTING table via SM30, but SAP will not let me change its values... 
    Thankyou

    I not sure either there is possibility to do it.
    I would suggest to create the same settings with different user in TA RSRD_ADMIN.

  • Broadcast Settings

    Hi
    I have a process chain that kicks off a "Trigger Event Data Change"  for an infoprovider, I have several broadcast settings for a  web template which uses a query based on this infoprovider. When I first ran it, all the settings executed perfectly, about 2 days later some executed while others fell over with an error, the problem is everytime I run it some of the settings work while others fail but never the same ones fail, but there is always a failiure, the error message I get back is,
    *Error: java.lang.NullPointerException*
    I get this for each setting that fails.
    The BEX Query is fine and when run on its own runs fine, the same with the WAD. The error only happens with the broadcast setting.
    Anyone ever have the same problem? Thanks for the help.
    Regards
    Lyndon

    It looks like there is something wrong with the java engine... maybe it's a time out, maybe it's something else...
    let a systemguy have a look at it... (logs...)

  • Execute many Broadcasting Settings at one time

    Hello Gurus,
    I have ~ 20 broadcasting settings defined in my system and I am searching for a way (Transaction, Program etc.) to execute them in one step.
    What I currenty do is:
    Open each setting in Bex broadcaster in the Portal, press execute, and wait, and this for 20 times.
    I have defined a broadcasting event in a process chain, that executes scheduled settings. But when errors in the chain occur, I have to start the settings manually.
    Points will be awarded for every good tip!

  • Help in Finding BEx Broadcasting Settings

    We recently refreshed our Sandbox environment with a copy of our Dev environment.  We use Information Broadcasting.  When someone opens a Workbook in BEx in our Sandbox environment and clicks "Distribute Workbook", they are prompted with the Broadcaster logon screen for our Dev environment and not Sandbox.  This makes sense, since we copied our Dev environment.  How do we change the settings so that the Broadcaster connects to Sandbox?  Thanks.

  • Is Broadcasting Settings Transportable?

    Hello friends,
                      I am working on Broadcasting Information from SAP Netweaver Enterprise Portal.
                     I am working in BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER and i have created broadcasting settings for a query and i have successfully broadcasted the reports to different users.
                      My question is i want to do it in BW PRODUCTION SERVER .I know that  we can transport queries or workbooks from DEVELOPMENT SERVER TO QUALITY AND FROM THEIR TO BW PRODUCTION SERVER.
                        We will do all the Broadcasting settings for a query in BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER.Is it possible to transport BROADCASTING SETTINGS from BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER TO BW PRODUCTION SERVER?
                      If so,how to transport?
                 Shall we directly do all the settings in BW PRODUCTION SERVER instead of transporting it from DEVELOPMENT TO PRODUCTION?
             Please, send me the relevant answer.It's very urgent.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Transporting Broadcast Settings
    To make the broadcast settings available in various BI systems, transport them.
    If the transport system is activated, a dialog box for specifying a transport request appears when you save the broadcast settings. Enter the required transport request.
    If a fixed standard BEx transport request is specified, the broadcast settings are automatically written to this request and the transport request dialog box is not displayed.
    The technical name of the object type (TLOGO) for broadcast settings in transport requests is BRSE.
    Thanks

  • Upload flat file to a variable when creating a variant or broadcast setting

    Hello Experts,
    Our users have recently begun to use the Broadcast E-Mail (Bursting) settings.  On the Recipient Determination tab, some settings have the "Selection of Characteristic Values" set to "By Following Selection" and some have it set to "By Control Query".  When filling out the "By Following Selection" screen, the user must pick one vendor code at a time.  Some users have over 100 vendors to set as recipients.  Is it possible for the user to upload (like in the BEx Browser selection screen) a flat file containing the list of desired vendor codes?  This was a nice feature in the BEx Browser and would be very useful here as well.  Thank you for your help.
