Adding footer in BEx Reports when PrintingExporting

Hello,
We have some BEx reports that are exposed through the portal.  We have a Print button on the BEx Web Analyzer that creates a PDF copy of the report. <b>Our issue is that we want to add (hard-code) some text in the footer of all generated PDF documents.</b>
The text that we want to add in the footer is Company Name, and User ID etc....
We do have our custom Web Template that we are using, and can be modified if needed.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harman

  • Q: Added benefit of Crystal Reports when using WebI?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a question regarding added benefit of Crystal Reports if we already have WebI.
    Seem to me that it is possible to customize the design quite much in WebI, and as I understand it the publishing/publication is the same for WebI and CR.
    Thank you in advance,
    Best regards,

  • Issue with Variable Personalisation in Bex Report

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm facing a typical problem with Variable presonalisation in the Report.
    I've executed a BEX Report and filtered data on some characteristics and used SAVE AS Button on the Portal to save the resultset. When I'm trying to use the variants, again say after  2 or 3 days i couldn't find updated data for particular variants upon using the same variants rather its refelecting the old data. Further more when I execute the report and try filtering on the same criteria altogether, I'm able to see updated result set.
    Is there any setting to be enabled when we personalise variants or variants are dependent on the data or the date on which they are created. Not sure why the reports are behaving this way. Or Do I need to create variants time and again.
    Any pointers would be of great help.
    Regard,
    Yaseen

    Hello,
    In the BEx report, when you get the variable selection screen there input your selection and at the bottom you have the option of saving them as a variant.
    Now in future when you run the report simply use this variant and execute the report. It should work fine.
    Also remember date selection can be tricky. If you input todays date in the variant, it wil consider the same date in further references. So do a check on that too.

  • Header and Footer in a BEx report

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a requirement where I need to provide a space for the user to sign-off with their name and signature at the bottom of the print-out of a BEx report. For this purpose I need to provide a space at the bottom of the report where the user can write their names and sign-off. It should be something like:
    Name: _________________________________-
    Signature: _______________________________
    Date: ___________________________________
    Is there some way I can add all this as the footer text in the BEx query?
    Thanks,
    Ram

    If the BEx query can use a "structure" in the rows section....
    Under last row, add a selection = company code, set it not equal to the company code, & change the description =
    NAME:  ____________________________________________
    Then, copy the above row, but change description to = 
    SIGNATURE: _____________________________________
    Repeat, copy the above row, change description =
    DATE:  ____________________________________
    If you want to add blank lines, copy one of these rows, but change description = a period = .
    By setting the restriction <> to the real company code, then that row should be blank straight across, except for the description.
    A better/more professional looking option is to put the BEx query into a web template, add 3 HTML rows under the query result table, add text per your specs.  Then save web template to the appropriate role/folder to publish it on the portal.

    SSRS 2008 Production orders created report, when I added item description some how cost group id is not working ,
    my costgroup id did not break into labor , only Mat Cost showed in the total,
    my query is as below,  did I link the wrong field,   I want to show Labor total also
    can some one suggest what I did wrong .
    any advise will be great
    SELECT        PRODTABLE.PRODID, PRODCALCTRANS.COSTGROUPID, PRODTABLE.QTYCALC, PRODTABLE.PRODSTATUS, PRODCALCTRANS.COSTAMOUNT,
                             PRODCALCTRANS.COSTMARKUP, PRODCALCTRANS.REALCOSTAMOUNT, PRODCALCTRANS.CALCTYPE, PRODTABLE.DATAAREAID, PRODCALCTRANS.KEY3,

    = 1) AND
                             (PRODCALCTRANS.CALCTYPE >= 0)

    Hi Bitia,
    As per my understanding, after you add Item field to the report, it does not calculate total of matl group, right? If that is the case, please refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the problem:
    Modify the dataset used to retrieve data, delete the fields will not be used in the report.
    Run the query in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to make sure that there is data for matl cost group.
    Make sure that row group and totals are correctly added.
    In addition, do you want to add Finished date to page header? If that is the case, we can use ReportItem to achieve the goal. Please refer to the following steps:
    In design surface, right-click the report and click Insert, then click Page Header.
    Drag Text Box from Toolbox to page header.
    Right-click inside of Text Box, then click Expression.
    In the expression text box, type the code like below:
    =ReportItems!FinishedDate.Value
    If the problem remain unresolved, please provide the screenshot of the report in design view, the following screenshot is for your reference:

  • Adding Timestamp to Report when it was Last Run.

    This is a general Reporting requirement we need to include in some of our Reports.
    Is there any way we can display "Timestamp" anywhere in report indicating when it ran sucessfully priviously.
    If it is not possible please let me know how can I add current timestamp in report when I run it.
    Here is what I did for now:
    I have added 'Started Time' option as 'Display Date and Time' under Title Edit View.
    Please let me know if there is any other way to put timestamps for your report.
    Regards,
    Abhay

    Hi,
    You can also put this in a column as and use the 'NOW()' function. No matter how you do this though it will always be based on the server locale and not the users regional locale which is a bit of a shame and usually renders this useless.
    Thanks

  • SQL error when I execute a Bex report

    Dear All,
    I have a customer exit for an important BeX report. When the report runs, it throws me the below error.
    "ORA-01795: maximum number of expressions in a list is 1000"
    I understand this error and I refered note 568768 after going through the earlier forums. Everyone is suggesting to ask the Basis people to increase the tablespace and empty some filesystem and all. The Basis team at my end had a thorough check of the system and told that there is no such problem. Below is my customer exit ---:
    WHEN 'EMPL_OP1'.
        IF i_step = 2.
          READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO loc_var_range WITH KEY VNAM = 'EDT_RFI'.
          select /BIC/CPS_EDATE /BIC/CPS_EFSQ /BIC/CPS_EMPL /BIC/CPS_EMPST 
          from /BIC/ACPS_JOB00 into table it_job
          where /BIC/CPS_EDATE <= loc_var_range-low.
          LOOP AT it_job INTO wa_job.
            CLEAR l_s_range.
                l_s_range-low = wa_job-/BIC/CPS_EMPL.
                l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
                l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
                APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
            clear:wa_job.
          ENDLOOP.
          refresh it_job.
        ENDIF.
    The problem is occuring only in the line "APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range" and there are no errors before that. That is - when 'e_t_range' is getting displayed. I never faced this problem for other reports and I am surprised why it is showing only records less than 1000. If my result set contains 1000 or greater records, it is giving the above dump. Guide me to optimise the code. I am sure someone might have faced this issue and were able to solve it.
    Cheers........!!!!!

  • Why i get x icon when i see bex report in web browser??

    Hi Experts,
    why i get x icon when i see bex report in web browser?? How can i avoid it..??
    DV

    DVMC,
    This could be of two reasons. One is formula collision if you are using formulas in the report. You can set from the properties which formula to act.
    Secondly, if you are having key figures data with diff dimensions i.e diff units or currencies used in calculations. This can be eliminated using NODIM() function in new formula.
    Check out which case applies to you.....

  • Issues with BEx Reports in SAP Enterprise Portal

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing issues with BEx reports integrated in portal. Below are more details:
    Scenario 1:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'My Portfolio' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report from 'My Portfolio'. Below is the issue for this scenario:
    When I open the saved report, I get 2 error messages and 1 info message at the top of the report. They are as follows:
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS' are incorrect for parameter 'COMMAND_PROCESSING'
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'FILTER_PANE_ITEM' are incorrect for parameter 'TEXT_WRAPPING'
    Variables for characteristic Fiscal year/period[0FISCPER] cannot be processed
    Scenario 2:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'BEx Portfolio' or 'Favourites' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report and click on 'Send' button. As expected, the BEx broadcaster wizard should appear but, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'. While if I open the report (not the saved one) and click on 'Send' button, it works.
    Helpful pointers appreciated.
    Thanks
    Vikash

    HI Suman,
    I am not adding the report to favourite using browser favourite. Below is the flow:
    Run the report in portal.
    There is a 'Save As' button at the top of the report. When I click that button, I get a pop-up with 3 tabs  for saving the report.:
    Favourite
    BEx Portfolio
    My Portfolio
    save the report in the favorites or BEx portfolio tab and then open it and press 'Send' button
    BEx Broadcaster Wizard should appear but instead of that, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'.
    If I press send for unsaved report, then BEx broadcaster Wizard is shown.
    Thanks,

  • Run Time Errors in BEx Report Designer?....asking for Portal Setup??

    In BEx Report Designer, I keep getting short dumps and timeouts when trying to design flashy reports.
    I keep getting 2 errors when I time out:
    1. 'Query (view) definition cannot be retrieved from Portal.
    Please try again or check query and Portal Setup!
    Time limit exceeded.
    2. xxx Error when reading Query (via BICS)
    Please check query and Portal setup!
    Time limit exceeded.
    We are running ECC 6.0, BI2004s, and SEM 6.0.  All in Sandbox/Dev environment.
    We are NOT running EP. 
    I am aware that we have some memory issues, and we're adding 4Gb more on Thursday....can the solution be that simple, or are these errors telling me we need Portals installed?  I was under the impression that Portals were NOT required for 2004s, so long as you did not use WAD etc.
    Any thoughts??

    You would need to install portals(EP) for the report designer to work. When you design your flashy report in designer and try it launch it... it would try to connect to EP to publish it. It bombs when it doesnt find the portal.
    On a personal note: Report designer have a long way to go when you think the output would be something like crystal .. NO not yet ... But SAP just got started ... I think they would be there pretty soon. And they promise many enhancements as of SP 13.. so lets all wait.
