Alpha numeric Sorting Issue with BIP-Siebel report

Hi All,
The report contains a column called 'Site Name' which contains alpha-number values such as '111 street', '4th Cross', 'Road cross', 'North end street' etc. The sorting expected here is in the form:
111 street
412 Cross
North end street
Road cross
I am currently using the following syntax for sorting the same - <?sort:(xdoxslt:convert_case(SiteName,'UPPER'));'ascending';data-type='text'?>
However, the output which I am getting is not as per expected.
North end street
Road cross
111 street
412 Cross
Can anyone help me on this.
Thanks,
Arun

Try This:
<?sort:SiteName;lang='no'?>
or
<?sort:string-length(substring-before ('01234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
,substring(SiteName,1,1))) ;'ascending';data-type='number'?>
or
<?sort:string-length(substring-before ('01234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
,substring(SiteName,1,1))) ;'descending';data-type='number'?>

Issue with Exceptions in Reporting

Hi BW Gurus,
            I am still new to BW, Like I have a issue with exceptions in reporting.
            Let me explain clearly, I created a report which gives me two MRP values they are for example V1 and PD(there other MRP types but I am focusing only this two). Here I can see in my report those two values and the overall result of all MRP types (they are 6 different types). My report looks like this for examply
   V1                  46,782,434(this are rough figures)
   PD                  56,232,453
   Overall Result      102,434,111
        Here my requirement is I need to find this overall result like accroding to thresold values this overall result shows RED,YELLOW,GREEN.
        I have given threshold values in exceptions. like
   0           -
> 45,000,000(Red)
   45,000,001 -
> 65,000,000 (Yellow)
   65,000,001 -
> 500,000,000 (Green)
       But according to this values I should get Red( Overall Result), I cant see any change in the overall result.
       Please can some one give advice how to reflect this threshold values in my report.Or I have to select any other options in exceptions.
       Thanks in advance.

Not really possible with BEx functions, but if you provide a workbook to users you can just type in this information in a non-Bex cell and save the workbook.
Else you can try to name your exception such that it shows the value ranges. Then in the report, from the toolbar Layout > Display Exceptions.
Hope this helps...

Strange issue with WEBI schedule Report

Hi All,
I have a strange issue with schedule WEBI reports, a schedule report runs for Hours , i reschedule it again by deleting the instance and the schedule report never got succeed even after running for hours.
Any idea???
regards

Hi Manoj,
1. Try to put some filters in the report and then run the report. if it takes less time, then probably your query is fetching very large data.
2. MDX query error may be the reason , this error come when a query runs endless, please try running the query 2-3 times, or when load on server is less.
Hope this will help,
Anamika.

Issues with BI publisher report in dashboard

Hello all,
I got some issues about BI publisher reports in a dashboard.
I use a dashboard prompt in combination with a BIP report.
1.) I don't want to see the publisher control bar in my dashboard. Now you can't view the report anymore after using the dashboard prompt. Because it says you have to press the view button which is on the publisher control bar.
So when I add the bar. Then I have first to press on go in the dashboard prompt and after that I have to press on view in the publisher control bar.
2.) When I open my dashboard I see a scroll bar in my BIP report. Now when I use the dashboard prompt, it disappears. So I can't view the entire report anymore
3.) I like to develop in english, but the test must be in dutch. Now I have a english dashboard with a dutch control bar. Also logging in to BIP in english and then navigating to analytics will not help.
4.) I can't use I-bots on BI publisher reports, or can I?
5.) This is not really an issue, but more like a problem but I want that users can view the BIP report on the dashboard only in HTML, but I want that they only can export to excel, is this possible?
Hoping for some answers ;)
Thanks in advance!

Hi Venkat,
Thanks for your quick respond.
1.) Auto Run is enabled. And the report runs automatically as well. But then it ignores the dashboard prompt (as a regular report would do as well). But when I choose some values in the prompt and then press go. Then it says I have to press on view as well.
2.) no that is not the case. My report is so big that it always need a scroll bar ;) also adjusting the size settings in the dashboard doesn't help. The only occurs when viewing in HTML, when previewing in excel or RTF it all just work fine.
3.) true, but ow well this is the least importetant one ;) so if this doesn't work, than it doesn't work ;)
4.) Ok, I will have a look on that.
5.) I did enabled HTML and EXCEL outputs in my BIP report. But when the first point is working, then I don't want to see the control bar anymore and I want to have the output on the dashboard in HTML and then I want to build a button, or a link or something that exports the request to excel. Is that possible?

Hierarchy issue with Web Intelligence Report

Hi All,
We are facing an issue with OLAP Universe where we are using hierarchy for cost center in reports.
BEx query shows correct data in RSRT with hierarchy nodes.
We have built a Universe on top of this BEx Query.
We are using couple of nodes of cost enter hierarchy in WebI report but if we keep more than one node in WebI query, data comes double (probably because of duplicate rows). Instead if I keep just one of the node in WebI query, WebI report returns correct data.
Please suggest, why such behavior with OLAP universe and how to resolve this?
Best Regards,
Ashish

Thanks for your suggestions.
I am little confused on how to check SQL generated for OLAP WebI Query.
But other reports on same universe behave same way and I'll give a try to another universe but I don't expect it to behave in different way. I saw a setting for relational Universes like restriction on duplicate rows but the same is not present in case of OLAP Universe.
Do you know how WebI behaves with BEx hierarchies?
There has to be some setting to make it work...
Best Regards,
Ashish

Issue with exporting Financial Report in Smartview 11.1.2.2

If I export a FR in "Export in query Mode" , it concatenates the parent with the child (parent.child) and does not return anything in Smartview. Even though the report works fine in workspace.
I narrowed down the issue and it seems if I use Stored member roll up instead of using Shared member roll up it returns the right data when I export the report in Smartview.
So the issue is only with the FR using Shared members.
Does anyone know if this is a known issue or can replicate this in their environment ? We are on version 11.1.2.2
Thanks

Nope that didn't work, but I figured out the error. I was running the command on a client machine. When I run the command on the server itself, it works fine.. well, now I have issues with my POVs, but at least it's finding my .csc file.
Thanks for your help John.

Datagrid sorting issues with 1/0 items to consider

Hi all,
I have an issue I can't find a way to fix. I am using a datagrid which I pouplate through a XMListCollection based on some XML datas.
XML:
var prefs:XML = <files>
<file name="@toto" favourite="1"/>
<file name="@toto"favourite="0"/>
</files>;
XMLListCollection
var xlc:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection( new XMLList ( prefs.file) );
MXML
<mx:DataGrid id="filesList" width="100%" height="100%" dataProvider="{xlc}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn width="25" dataField="@favourite"sortCompareFunction="favourite_sortCompareFunc"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
Sorting fucnction:
private function favourite_sortCompareFunc(itemA:Object, itemB:Object):int {
    var value1:Number = Number( itemA.@favourite );
    var value2:Number = Number( itemB.@favourite );
    if(value1 < value2){
         var n:Number = -1;
         return n;
    else if(value1 > value2){
         return 1;
    else{
         return 0;
    return 1;
Once loaded, the datagrid appears in a "normal state":
But if I try to sort first column, it becomes messy
I think it might be related to the fact that the data to be sorted is only made of 0 & 1. But I can't imagine this kind of situations is not fixable.
Any hint ?
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Loic

Hi guys,
First of all, all my apologizes for my silence. I had technical issues with Yahoo mail that made me miss 3 months mail ! So I just missed your posts and I can only come today to thank you all for your care and answers.
In the meanwhile, I finally got it working by doing…nothing. Let me explain. The issue was caused by equal datas ( 1 or 0 ). So Flex couldn't sort 1 and 1 or 0 and 0 by itself. But these 0 and 1 were flags for an itemrenderer made of a button in toggle mode. 1 standed for on, 0 for off.
Doing so I did override updateDisplayList and then the issue went away. But if I had to stick with pure datas ( 1 or 0 ) I think I would have had to do a custom sort function to deal with equal datas like a few of you offered.
@DonMitchinson the @ stands for the xml attribute as the datagrid is populated with XMLListCollection from an XML file.
Thanks for your sharing,
Best,
Loic

As of now i do not know of any setting for context menu specially.
If anyone can help me or if anyone has encountered this error before, pl. let me know the solution.

Issue with execution of report

Hi,
I have an issue when the report is running. It is taking long time to run.
The scenario is that We used Plant in selection screen initially and there were no issues in execution of the report.
As per the business process, the plant has to be replaced with another info object zobject_0plant. Zobject is a customized infoobject and 0plant is the navigational attribute of zobject.
The report is running good without the selection of Zobject_0plant.
When this zobject_0plant is selected in variable screen, the report is taking long time to execute.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi... as per your issue
First note: Check the master data tds rates were maintained or not . and the new rates were updated in all the vendor master data or not
In EWT a field called business place is playing major roll. Please check that all the transactions should have business place. if some transactions do not have business place than it will not consider for challan posting.
1. Post invoice with TDS (importantly update the business place and section code)
2. Run J1INCHLN for monthly remittance to Govt.
3. Update J1INBANK for back challan updatation
Note : checked the table with_item and the bseg,bkpf tables.basically the j1incert picks/parses data from the with_item table(the program fetches all the data from bkpf and checks with with_item table and does some filtering and its shown in the certificate print)
4. Run J1INCERT to print the TDS Certificates
Note: Finally just look into your J1INCERT entering parameters screen, the problem lies in the paramaters most probably in dates only assuming all the required configuration has been correctly done
Also Please change the assigned form J_1IEWT_CERT to J_1IEWT_CERT_N
I hope it will helps you...please confirm

Red Blue issue with published DeskI Report in InfoView

Hi everyone,
i'm expieriencing a strange behaviour with my published DeskI Reports.
I'm using logos in my report and they work just fine... in my full client. As soon as I publish them to InfoView and open them up in the browser, then somehow the color red and blue interchange. Red becomes blue and vice versa...
My System consists of:
BOE R 3.1 SP2
Win Server 2008
DeskI and WebI
Has anyone expirienced the same issues?
Thanks and kr,
Nils

Hi Stratos,
so far everything is just fine. Hope you are doing great too.
my IE version is: 7.0.5730.13
Tomcat version: 5.5.20
If I click on the logos in InfoView, nothing happens.
I tested 3 different ways to implement them:
1) via link; pictures shows up, but again with the red blue issue
2) as an object; pictures shows up; also w/ the red blue issue
3) inserted a cell, and pasted the picture in it, pictures shows up; also w/ the red blue issue
The strange thing is, that this issue only appears in the browser.
Thanks,
Nils

Facing Issue with Stock Ageing report

In Blocked Stock Ageing report Output, I am facing following issues
1. Stock is correct but once we include the "Reason For Movement" then the aging is getting wrong and in some cases value is coming Negative.
2. In some cases "Reason For Movement" is coming in ‘#’, but this is a mandatory field. Hence cannot be blank.
Note:
1. Overall stock is coming correct.
2. Reason Movement chat. is in free char
3. Report is based 0IC_C03.

Hi Nadeem,
Reason for Movement is loading from what attribute? check in RSRV for that attribute.
RSRV-->All Elementary Tests ->Master Data ->Compare Size of P-, Q- with X- and Y- Tables respectively .
If it has any error then correct that error in RSRV. It will solve your problem.

Issue with ADF Application Report Generation

1) We are developing the web-base ERP application we are using technology as follows
a) Operating System Red Hat Enterprise Linux4.
b) Application Server Oracle Application Server 10.1.3
c) Oracle ADF is the frame work
d) Jasper reports (iReport 3.0.0) as report generation tool.
While generating larger reports using iReport3.0.0 Tool i,e., contains more than 20,000 records the query while executed in Sqlplus takes less than a minute, but while the report is run it takes more time leading to time out and the pdf file is not generated. The error shown on the screen is “the web server unable to process the given request”
The session time-out is 5 minutes. Please help us to tackle this issue since most of the reports are summarized reports and contain large transactional data and is critical reports.
You may also suggest other web based report tools which help us generate large reports in PDF and/or text formats.

PRABEETHSOY,
some things come to mind.
While generating larger reports using iReport3.0.0 Tool i,e., contains more than 20,000 records the query while executed in Sqlplus takes less than a minute, but while the report is run it takes more time leading to time out and the pdf file is not generated.Running a query in sqlplus is totally different from running it in an application. Sqlplus only pumps the results to the screen, whereas the application builds some layers around the data, so that you can navigate through the result. This will cost some time.
You can try to optimize your strategy working with the data, i.e. running the query in forward only mode and/or omit the usaeg of EO where you know you don't need to change data.
But in the end you may find that you have to use a different approach to generate the reports: do it asynchrony, meaning that you start the generation on the server, let it finish there (putting the result in a file) and send the finished report to the user in a different request. Do do this you can use a poll component, or you ask the user to come back later (giving him a report number to ask for). Other solution are possible.
