Advise on Query KM Settings

There were some features of the bi_showcase role that we don't want to implement so we modified the worksets associated with the role. Also, we don't want to give the user capability to provide permissions of their reports to others.
I noticed that the KM Iview uses the broadcasting_prog setting in the iview.
Is there another setting I could use that does not provide the user capability to provide permission changes to the folder or contents? Or, what process do I use to just turn that functionality off?

Query security settings for users

Hi again.
I'm looking for a way of querying security settings for a user.
ie I understand that company/division etc security is implemented through responsibilities.
In which case, is there a way to retrieve those exclusions per user?
(eg User 1 cant see company 50)
Thanks,
g.

HFR - Data Query Optimization Settings

hi
In HFR, in a grid there are Data Query Optimization Settings, can you please help me on the settings property.
Our report fetches data using lot of attributes. When we don't use MDX setting, it fetches very fast, but the alias doesn't come.
However, when we use MDX setting, the alias comes, but the report takes lot of time to run(approx 1 min / row of data fetched)
Can you please guide on the same.
Thanks

Please do let me know steps to tune/optimize the sql query.Also which hint we can use on sql query to better results.
Thanks in advanced.
PMBefore you start worrying about performance tuning you should worry about the query being incorrect.
         WHERE
             ROWNUM <= &param
             AND   ( c_date BETWEEN &date1 AND &date2 )

         ORDER BY c1, c_date;Presumably you want to limit the number of rows with the ROWNUM predicate AFTER the ORDER BY clause is applied.
Please read this and learn how queries are actually processed, I can almost guarantee you this query is not doing what you think it is doing at present.

Set operations in AdHoc Query - user settings

Hi
I am checking out the Set operations in AdHoc Query. The documentation says you should save the setting "Set operations shown" as a user setting. Could anyone advise me where this is set? I can't find a parameter for it, and can't find it in the regular settings.
Any help appreciated.
Kirsten

The save is automatic upon exiting Ad Hoc query. Once you do "Show Set Operations", work on a query, save and exit, the next time you open Ad Hoc query, Set Operations tab is displayed by default.

Export in Query mode settings

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me where can we get Export in Query mode(Used to export grids to Excel sheet) settings?
One more problem with this is that the Excel that is exported on clicking on "Export on Query mode" button overwrites the current Excel working file that we are working upon. How can this be solved?

It is the behavior, Query ready mode will only pulls the members which are in Essbase (no FR calculated fields)

Querying user settings

Hi,
After quite a bit of experience developing ASP gadgets for version 4.5, we've recently moved to Plumtree version 5 and .Net.
One thing we would like to be able to do is provide a web service for use by other applications (outside the portal) which could request the retrieval of a specific User setting for a given user.
I've seen some examples of similar challenges, but still a bit bewildered how to go about this (on the Plumtree side of things, the actual process of building our own web service is fine).
The web service will be built with .Net & WSE, on a server with the Plumtree EDK installed. I've checked and our Plumtree installation also has the PTAPI QueryInterfaceAPI web service available.
Should I use a PRC session, and impersonate the user I need to get the settings for, or will setting up a session as an admin user be sufficient to query the User settings object for another user?
Any help offered would be gratefully received.
Thanks,
Charles

Sorry - I'm a doofus. I didn't read your post completely.
You're right - if you want to attach to this service w/o going through Plumtree/BEA first to obtain a login ID you'd need to impersonate a user (I'd suggest a secured admin account where the credentials are encrypted).
Try this... (server API)
In your web.config
<appSettings> <add key="UserID" value="administrator" /> <add key="UserPassword" value="" /></appSettings>
Encrypt these or do something to protect them.

Query regarding settings for NOKIA OVI suite

Hi everybody. Well I downloaded the latest version of NOKIA OVI suite for my 5800 XM from NOKIA website and then used it to upload music vids from PC to fone. During this procedure, it asked for something about ffd codes??? which I allowed. Now my default music player was Windows Media Player, which is now not playing any media files. When I uninstalled OVI suite, the problem was solved. Is there any way that I can keep WMP as my default media player while using OVI suite to move media files from PC to fone.

Hi,
Can you check the following?
Control Panel > Add or Remove programs > Set program access and Defaults > Select your media player as default on your PC.

My new tab page displays only an empty grid. Missing thumbnails -and- sites. I -think- my settings are correct. Please advise.

Make sure that you do not clear the Browsing Cache as that will remove the thumbnails that are stored in it.

Query Governer Configuration Settings-URGENT

Hi
When I run my report,sometimes I get an error 'Not all rows have been retrieved.Data may be inaccurate'.
Then i found out reason could be because of Query Governer settings (Tools->Options->Query Governer Tab)where i have checked option Limit retrieve data to 10 rows.
My problem is
1) I dont see an option to uncheck any of three features(i.Warn me if predicted query time exceeds.(ii) Prevent queries from running longer than (iii) Limit retrieve data to ) in Query Governer because all of them are disabled.
2)If I try to increse the value from Limiting retrieve data to 10 rows to say 15 rows,I get an error 'This value cannot be set higher thn the limit specified by your Discoverer Manager'.
Please advice me.How can i configure these settings.
Thanks

Well, there are default settings, but they can be overridden at the user level. Do Tools > Privileges in Administration, pick a user, and you will see a Query Governor tab there as well. In Discoverer Plus, under options, there is also a Query Governor tab there, so as a Business Plus user, I can change those values there as well. Can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be.

Confused about my project settings - Can someone advise?

I have some clips of my child when she was very little (i've supplied a sample at the bottom). I want to make a project with them in Premiere Elements 10.
I've tried using Premiere Elements' auto project settings advisor (i.e placed the 1st clip of the new project onto the timeline so it can advise if the project settings are correct or not) but no matter what intial project settings i use Premiere Elements doesnt suggest auto corrected settings. So, I've used 3 different media analisis programs to tell me what properties my video clips have and they all say different things:
1) Media info says: AVI (Mjpeg) 720x480 (3:2) 30 fps NTSC, interlaced.
2) MovieScanner says: AVI (Mjpeg) 720x480 (4:3), 480p (progressive).
3) MediaTab says: AVI (Mjpeg) 720x480 (3:2) 30fps, NTSC progressive.
So, i think i can safely say the clips are AVI (motion Jpeg), but are they interlaced or progressive (it's obviouisly important for me to get this right when choosing the project settings)? I have no idea what the pixel aspect ratio and all that would be as that's getting too advanced for me.
Can Mjpeg even be interlaced? Surely if it's lots of Jpegs put together to make a moving image then they must be progressive, or can the Jpegs themselves be interlaced?
Here is a very small sample clip if somebody wants to download & have a look for me:
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=F587D73C02F4DBBB!2689&authkey=!ANELPbk4tYQDCDc&ithin t=file%2c.AVIhttp://
Any tips of how someone would go about finding out these settings would be great too.
Many thanks.

Your wisdom here would be greatly appreciated (again).
I've decided to make my new movie project of my childs' 1st year in Premiere Elements 12 (not 10), and with the following settings:
The clips i have are of her 1st year and are from the same camcorder. Unfortunently (as previously described) i changed the settings on the camcorder half way through the year. So i have 2 sets of clips i want to use if possible.
The clips are in date order & comprise of the following 2 sets of properties (info from MediaInfo older version 0.7.47):
Set 01:
Format                           : JPEG
Codec ID                         : MJPG
Width                            : 640 pixels
Height                           : 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio             : 4:3
Frame rate                       : 30.000 fps
Color space                      : YUV
Chroma subsampling               : 4:2:2
Bit depth                        : 8 bits
Scan type                        : Progressive
Compression mode                 : Lossy
Bits/(Pixel*Frame)               : 1.161
Stream size                      : 144 MiB (98%)
Set 02 (you have a copy of 1 the clips from this set (2010-12-20 - emily in jersey.avi)):
Format                           : JPEG
Codec ID                         : MJPG
Width                            : 720 pixels
Height                           : 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio             : 3:2
Frame rate                       : 30.000 fps
Standard                         : NTSC
Color space                      : YUV
Chroma subsampling               : 4:2:2
Bit depth                        : 8 bits
Scan type                        : Progressive
Compression mode                 : Lossy
Bits/(Pixel*Frame)               : 1.158
Stream size                      : 93.5 MiB
Now, i have a stumbling block to solve and your advice would be hugely valued:
What project settings should i use (i ideally want to use both sets of clips in the same project, sorry, lol)?
I'm very tempted to use the project settings that Premiere Elements 12 suggests. It suggests a project setting for clips from set 1 (but has no idea about the settings for Set 2). There are more clips in Set 1 and so it makes sense to me (at the moment) to choose those.
The suggested settings from Premiere Elements 12 are:
Sony XD CAM EX 720p
timebase 30.00 fps
640 x 480
square (1.0)
no fields (progressive scan)
30fps timecode
The clip information that Premiere Elements 12 displays for the 1st clip in set 1 that i placed on the timeline are:
Image size 640x480
Frame rate 30
Pixel aspect ratio 1.0
Would you agree that these settings look about right, or would you still recomend the settings you previously suggested (for that clip from set 2)?
Also, just to complicate things slightly too, i have 2 further clips that i wouldnt mind fitting in that were captured using a different camera altogether. I was not going to use them because of the incompatible frame rate, but is it possible? It doesnt matter too much if its too much of a pain becausde they are only 2 clips.
Their settings are:
Video
Format                           : JPEG
Codec ID                         : MJPG
Duration                         : 3mn 2s
Bit rate                         : 16.3 Mbps
Width                            : 1 280 pixels
Height                           : 720 pixels
Display aspect ratio             : 16:9
Frame rate                       : 24.000 fps
Color space                      : YUV
Chroma subsampling               : 4:2:0
Bit depth                        : 8 bits
Scan type                        : Progressive
Compression mode                 : Lossy
Bits/(Pixel*Frame)               : 0.738
Stream size                      : 354 MiB (92%)
Title                            : FUJIFILM AVI STREAM 0100
I'll probably need further advice when the project is completed about how to ideally export the movie.
Many many thanks.
ps. This problem will not occur again, since i now shoot all my clips from 1 HD camera and with all the same settings, lol.
Just in case you wish to view the 1st clip from set 1 that i placed on the timeline, i have uoploaded it to skydrive:

Query Curves Layer for current settings

Hi All,
I am trying to work out how to query a curves layer for it's current settings. I have used the script listner to capture the code on how to apply settings but can't work out how to query the settings. The output from the script listner when applying new settings is as follows:

BI : QUERY Execution Error !!

Hi Experts,
Whenever I click on the report on the development portal, It always opens up in the Production portal which should not happen.
Kindly advise where the necessary settings should be maintained so that the reports in development portal opens up in the development portal only.
Thanks in advance .
thanks & regards,
M.S

Hi Experts,
I have cheked as below. In Se38 & Se16 its reflecting the right portal name in the dev system. but whenever i open the development portal and click on the report under the tab in the portal ,it opens up in the production portal. Kindly advise.
Missing configuration of the portal. Check following:
1. Start the transaction SE37
2. Call the Module RSWAD_URL_GET
3. Fill the parameters as follows
           I_ACTION: NEW
           I_OBJTYPE: QU (QU for Queries, BTMP for Templates, VW for Views, and ERPT for Reports)
           I_TECHNAME: QUERY
4. Execute and check the result
5. E_URL=http://<your expected server>:<your expected port>/irj/...&QUERY=QUERY
Solution
If the result is as you expect, the problem is not in the configuration. In other case please do following:
Run the transaction SE16
View the table RSPOR_T_PORTAL
Execute it (expand the width to see the parameter URL_PREFIX)
Check if there is a prefix for your portal maintained
Kindly advise me the steps to check the link.I am doing it for the first time.
Thanks in advance.
thanks & regards,

Delivered PeopleSoft Query

I need your help with a GL delivered query. I am sure if you look at your client environment, the query should be delivered as well. The delivered query is called, GL_ARCH_JRNL that archives Journals in GL.
I couldn’t make out from the criteria column what it is doing. From what I gathered it is archiving Journals that are posted and closed by specifying as prompt values the Business unit and ledger group. ?? I know this query archives Journals which are closed and posted but I wasn’t sure what the other prompt values meant such as Request data, As of Data, Retention days and Begin date…
Please advise if am understanding this correct.
Please advise.

This query is used to archive journals through the Data Archive Manager tool.
It is documented in the PeopleSoft Enterprise General Ledger 9.1 PeopleBook under "Archiving for Ledgers and Journals". There you'll find an explanation of the prompts under "Journal Archive Query Parameter Descriptions".
Regards,
Bob

Trying to cancel Discoverer query - it's taking along time to cancel ....

Hi Everyone,
I cancelled a query bec. it was taking a long time to run
Now it's taking a long time to cancel
The admin is out to lunch...
any advice pls, thx, sandra

Hi Sandra
Typically the reason for canceling a query is that it has been running too long - right?
Behind the scenes, one of two things is happening, either:
1. The query was having a hard time finding any data and is still searching, or
2. The query has found some data but not enough to satisfy the query governor settings
For the latter, depending upon how much data has so far been retrieved, Discoverer has to put that data somewhere. This is called a cache. The more data you put into a cache the more has to be cleared out of it should you decide not to proceed. This is probable what happened to you.
By the way, when you cancel a query you're generally asked a question about whether Discoverer should keep the last change but return no data. If you click Yes in reply to this question this is generally what triggers the clearing of the cache. Most of the time I just click No, even if I made a small change. I tend to get my query back quick.
Finally, if your Discoverer worksheet is a Crosstab or it uses Page Items, or even both at the same time, this is one of the causes of a long running query. In any of these scenarios, Discoverer has buckets to compute and it has no idea how many buckets to allow for until it has read all of the data.
In my Discoverer 10g Handbook and in my training courses I talk about The Query From The Twilight Zone. This are the queries that never or seems like never return any data and either time out or have to be stopped manually. Sometimes these runaway queries are trying to return every row of data from the database but more typically they are caused by the overcasual use of page items or Crosstabs.
Hope this synopsis helps
Best wishes
Michael
