Analyser 7.1 launches new Excel Session

Hi All,
I just wanted to ask, I remeber in BEx 3.5 if you had an excel session open and clicked on the Analyser icon it would open the tool bar in the same session. But in 7.1 when I hit the Analyser icon it opens a new Excel session. Is there a setting that needs to be maintained to turn this feature off so tool bar opens in current excel session?

Hi,
As per note: 1435326 - "Usage of transaction RRMX / precalc server with gui 7.20". This is a limitation of the system right now.
o Reusing of Excel instances is not supported. Every call will launch its own Excel instance.

BEx 70 launches new excel instance

Hi experts!
In BEx 3.x no new excel instance was launched when analyzer was started. So if excel was already open and analyzer was started only the AddIn came up in the already open excel instance.
In BEx 70 always a new excel instance is launched even if excel is already open.
Is there a way to change that behaviour?
Thx for your reply.
Michael

Hi Michael,
I also know this difference between Bex 3.x and Bex 7.0.
This is the disadvantage of Bex 3.x and it is improved in Bex 7.0.
Unfortunately there should be no way to change this in Bex 3.x.

LIBOVD ERROR - "validateContextToken: workflow session was not found for given context. Create a new workflow session with token"

Hello everyone,
I have the following scenario:
We're using "Oracle SOA Suite 11g 11.1.1.7.0" (Patched w/ 17893896) mainly for a BPM/Human workflow composite. Former, we were having the error bellow:
<Mar 16, 2015 1:13:03 PM BRT> <Error> <oracle.soa.services.workflow.query> <BEA-000000> <<.> Verification Service cannot resolve user identity. User weblogic cannot be found in the identity repository. Workflow Context token cannot be null in request.
ORABPEL-30511
When that error ocurred, no one was able to use the system (BPM/Human Workflow).
I opened an SR, and after some analysis from the support, it recommended me to set up "virtualize=true" in EM, and restarting the domain. Then it started logging the following:
connection to ldap://[10.200.10.57]:7001 as cn=Admin.
javax.naming.NamingException: No LDAP connection available to process request for DN: cn=Admin.
Looking up on support KB, I found this note Doc ID 1545680.1 and increased from Max size of Connection Pool 10 to 200. That did work successfully! Problem now is that the <SERVER>_diagnostic.log is being filled up with the following error:

One important point is that we're using only the embedded WLS ldap. So I am not 100% sure if we should be using the virtualize flag=true, once all docs I read point out that this should be done when using multi-ldap providers.
Also, I only got this error in the "diagnostic.log".
Although, no user has complained about using the system, I really want to work it out. Anyone has any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

I have moved your thread from Certification to SOA Suite to get proper assistance.
Thanks,

How do I create a selector within Xcelsius that launches an excel file or a pdf?

We are using Crystal Xcelsius 4.5 and would like to have a radio button on the portal that launches an excel or pdf file. How do I create that button.

I have 2 URL Link components one for a PDF and one for a Excel Sheet. The PDF works fine when you click the button. But when I click the Excel Link button, it opens a new window and right away i get ACTION CANCELED, if i Refresh it opens, but i would like to open it on the first click.
Anybody experienced this and was able to fix it?
You help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Using Start-Job to launch multiple SSH sessions and esxtop?

Hello folks,
I am trying to start an esxtop session on multiple esx servers at the same time.
I started trying using Start-Job thinking it would help do it asynchronously.
The script I have below works on one host so far, but need suggestions to repeat it for multiple hosts, thinking by looping through changing the $i each time?
Checking if anyone would have comment?
$i = 1
$seconds = 5
$iterations = 2
$esxtopfile = "esxtop$i_$((Get-Date).ToString('MMddyyy-hhmm')).csv"
$ComputerName = "z420esxi$i.domain.net"
# Start an esxtop session using SSH.net and start an esxtop command - module already loaded.
$sb = {New-SshSession -ComputerName $($args[0]) -KeyFile C:\esxi-key-openssh.key -Username root
Invoke-SshCommand -ComputerName $($args[0]) -command "esxtop -d $($args[1]) -a -b -n $($args[2]) > /tmp/$($args[3])"
Start-Job -ScriptBlock $sb -ArgumentList $ComputerName,$seconds,$iterations,$esxtopfile | Wait-Job | Receive-Job

A: Using Start-Job to launch multiple SSH sessions and esxtop?

You're starting for a job, waiting for that job to complete and then finally receiving that job
before allowing anything else to happen with your script.
In other words, if you had some code after the Start-Job line, it would not be executed until the job had completed and you had received the job, which partially negates the benefits of using a job to begin with (specially bearing in mind you don't have
a form).
The way to achieve what you're after is to start all jobs at the same time, one per ESX host, and then finally to wait for all jobs and collect all jobs at the end.
Here's a quick example that starts 5 jobs and wait for all of them to complete before receiving the results.
$jobs = @()
$jobs += 1..5 | ForEach-Object {Start-Job -ScriptBlock {Sleep $args[0]; "I just slept for $($args[0]) seconds"} -ArgumentList $_}
[void] (Wait-Job $jobs)
Receive-Job $jobs
Notice that each of the subsequent jobs will take longer and longer to run, with the first being the fastest and the last the slowest. Still, I'm waiting for *all* jobs to complete before performing the Receive-Jobs on all of them at the same time.

How to create a New Excel File programmatically

Hi !
I am documenting acquired data continuously in an excel file, what I need to do is to create a new excel file automatically when the size of the previous file exceeds a certain limit lets say 1MB.
I have tried using the simple 'Create/Open File' function and the 'Write to Spreadsheet File' function to create the new excel file. I does create a file but when I open the file it says the format of the file is not what you have opened it with.
Also when the new file is created, three new worksheet are to be added programmatically with pre-defined worksheet name and also Column headers for each of the worksheet are to be added.
I am also using 'Labview Report Generation Toolkit for Office'.
Regards,
Reeves
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@ Aldo A
Thanks for the reference to tutorial, I didn't know about them. They are useful in general but unfortunately they don't answer the problem of creating an altogether new excel file programmatically.
@ ben64
The template thing simplifies the issue of formatting the new file. But I am still working on the new excel file creation challenge.
Let me put my problem in a different way.
Certain data is being acquired continually and is being written to a certain excel file, when the size of the file exceeds lets say 1MB the program should start saving the data in a NEW FILE instead of the previous file.
I have attached the VI to explain what I am trying to achieve here.

When running an xml publisher report the xml output leads to 9 mb and the excel output file leads to 20 mb.But the output records is originally 4000 records. When copy to new excel it is showing 3.5 mb only. Does anyone knows the answer for this issue?

When running an xml publisher report the xml output leads to 9 mb and the excel output file leads to 20 mb. The records contained in excel file is 4000 records. When taking the excel records and copy to new excel file the excel file size is 3.5 mb only.Why does the oracle software generates 20mb file?
Does any one knows the answer please advice?

Hello,
This issue is because the Excel output from BI Publisher is MHTML (XML Publisher generates XHTML) not binary .xls.
MHTML and XHTML are more verbose formats than binary .xls.
It will be large because the current Excel output is just an HTML and not compressed like PDF. Please use the workaround (save it as .xls file). This is a known limitation of RTF layout templates.
BI Publisher Enterprise has a new feature True Excel Templates. The layouts generate binary Excel output.
Excel Output File Size Generated By BI Publisher is Very Large (Doc ID 760437.1)

How to store the data coming from network analyser into a text or excel file

Hii everyone
I'm using Agilent 8719ET network analyser and wish to store the data coming from netowrk analyser into a text file/ excel file.
Presently I'm able to get the data on Labview graph using GPIB . Can anyone suggest how to go ahead after collect data sub vi. How can the data be stored into a file apart from showing on the graph?
Attached is the vi for kind consideration...
Looking for help

First let me say that your code really looks pretty good. The data handling could be made more efficient by calculating the number of datapoints that are going to be in the completed dataset and preallocating the entire array -- but depending upon your answer to my questions, the logic in the lower shift register may be going away - so we won't worry about that right now.
The thing I need to know before addressing the data storage question is: Each time you call "Collect and Display Data.vi", how many element are in the array? Are you reading single data points, or a group of data? (BTW: if the answer to that question is obvious based on the way the other VIs are setup, I don't have the drivers so I can't tell what the setup values are.) Second, how fast does the loop iterate? Are we talking msec per loop?, seconds? fortnights?
The issues here are two-fold: how much data? and how fast is it coming? The answer to these will tell you how to save the data.

You are not using the correct mechanism. Pull up the Example Finder in LabVIEW, click on the "Search" tab, and enter "Excel". Look for an example called "Write Table to XL". Use this as a starting point for creating new workbooks and adding data to it.
Note: on disk the example is at <LabVIEW install directory>\examples\comm\ExcelExamples.llb.

Automatically create new Excel file from template using data from a selected row in a separate Excel file

I am fairly new to Macro and VBA in Excel. I am trying to reduce the amount of work involved in a task that is performed often in our office. Currently, the task involves using 2 separate Excel files. One file is a tracking sheet and the second is the document
that gets sent out to the client. The second document has all the same information that is inserted into the tracking sheet. What I would like to do is have the information that is in one row on the tracking sheet populate into a new excel file that is created
automatically from an existing template.
I have been able to make this partially work. What I have been able to achieve is have the cell that is selected in the tracking sheet (the description field) copy into the new file that is created from the template that is on our server.
Sub NewRFI()
' NewRFI Macro
MsgBox Selection.Address(ReferenceStyle:=xlA1, _
RowAbsolute:=False, ColumnAbsolute:=False)
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Add Template:= _
"template file path goes here"
Range("C14").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
Range("C14").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
What I need to do is get the rest of the information from that same row in the tracking sheet to copy to the new file as well. The other information includes the document number (one cell to the left of the selected cell), who it is from (one cell to the
right of the selected cell), and the date (two cells to the right of the selected cell). As stated, this information is all in the same row on the tracking sheet. Each piece of information needs to be copied to a certain cell in the new file and I do not want
the source formatting to be copied to the new file.
Ideally, I would like it to operate like so: select the first cell in the row (in this case would be the document number field). Then click a button to run the macro that will then copy the information from that row in the tracking sheet to specific cells
in the new file that is created from the template.
This process will save us from having to either manually copy and paste the information into the new file or re-type the same information that is already in the tracking sheet.
This is probably a simple thing to do but it would be great if anybody had some insight on this issue. Thanks in advance!

Try code like the following. You will have to change the target cells (D25, F1 and H4) to the ones you want, I just used some arbitrary cells as example.
Sub NewRFI()
Dim rngCell As Range
Set rngCell = ActiveCell
MsgBox Selection.Address(ReferenceStyle:=xlA1, _
RowAbsolute:=False, ColumnAbsolute:=False)
Workbooks.Add Template:="template file path goes here"
Range("C14").Value = rngCell.Value
' Change the target cells as needed
Range("D25").Value = rngCell.Offset(0, -1).Value
Range("F1").Value = rngCell.Offset(0, 1).Value
Range("H4").Value = rngCell.Offset(0, 2).Value
End Sub

How to name a new Excel worksheet using an invoke node??

I want output from my specific labview code to be written to a new and specific worksheet (meaning I want to provide the specific worksheet name) of an Excel spreadsheet my LabVIEW code will generate. My code will run in a loop where I want data that is generated in each pass of the loop to be written to a new worksheet each time through the loop. I know how to do this if I am ok with just having each worksheet be named 4, 5, 6, etc (on top of the 1, 2 and 3 that comes standard with a new Excel spreadsheet) but I want more meaningful names than just those numbers... So how do I add a new worksheet and give it a name of my choosing??? Also, when right click on an invoke node and then click on "Help for Item" which is right under the Methods selection that comes up, nothing happens, meaning I am not directed to any help file. I see that same behavior under LabVIEW 6.1 and also under LabVIEW 7.1. My guess is either I didn't buy some option required to have that help area be populated or I had it as some option but didn't know to install it when I originally installed LabVIEW??? Having that help available might help answer the question I pose above... I find working with ActiveX components to not be straightforward. Granted I haven't done it much and what I have done has been sort of follow examples and get it to work... But on this naming a new worksheet I have found no useful examples. My guess is it's easy but I'm clueless... Any help would be much appreciated... Note, in case it matters, I do not own the Report Generation tool/capability... thanks... bob...

Hi, Paris1:
Take a look at "Excel Workbook Properties", that is located in
REPORT GENERATION
-> EXCEL SPECIFIC
-> EXCEL GENERAL
-> EXCEL WORKBOOK PROPERTIES
One of its outputs is "Current Worksheet Name".
You can insert a ExcelWorkbookProperties VI in a blank VI and then double-click it.
You will se a rose vi named Excel Get Properties
And inside it (double-clicking it), the way Worksheet's name is got. If you "Change to Write" that property node, you can set it's name.
This way is very complicated, it can be done faster, but this way you can see a process to do that, and checking it, you can build your own excel VIs to do specific tasks.
Hope it helps,
Aitortxo.

Transaction iView(from remote source) does not open a new SAP session

Hi All,
We are on portal 7.4 and are calling a transaction from ECC system. Within the transaction we have a button which displays graphs based on the output of the transaction. Since we are calling this transaction from portal, a new session does not open after clicking on this button.
In order to enable a new session, I have changed the configuration for 'disable new session buttons in SAP GUI' to false yet the new SAP session does not open. I have also verified the webgui setting and ensured that we do not have '~singletransaction' maintained, yet we are unable to enable the new session. Could you kindly suggest on how I can get this button to function?
Additional inputs:
- Referred to note 125814 for changing the new sessions value.
- Tried changing the iview type to 'SAP GUI for window' from SAP HTML type(which was default).
- In case I type '/o' in the command box for SAP, it gives me a 'maximum sessions reached' message, but this message does not come when I click on this button. In fact, nothing happens after I click on the button.
I still think there might be a possibility to enable this, however, I seek your inputs on this.
Awaiting response...
Warm Regards,
Vinay

Hi Harini,
thanks for your answer!
I can tell you that the same command used from the SAP Client open a new session with the same transaction...
Is strange that from the portal it has a different behaviour...
Best Regards

Leaving excel Inplace, the excel session is still active

I all,
I use the Excel Inplace method to format data in PivotTables. I use a template based on sap_MM.xls with the procedure Public Sub ALV_CUS_Exit (). It is working correctly.
My problem happens when I leave the transaction and return to the initial screen. The excel session is still active causing blockages in the Excel application itself
I looked at the OSS note 122539: it describes functions which do not yet exist in the SAP delivery for certain events. I have tried those functions with the SAP declaration like :
public sub customer_workbook_deactivate()
Me.Application.Quit
End Sub
Either I use the wrong syntax or I do not set the code in the correct place of the VBA project, I have never activated these functions while leaving the screen excel inplace.
Can you guide me to a solution ?
In advance thank you very much.

Thanks, but my first problem is that I do not pass through the procedure. Once I pass through it I'll try "me.quit()".
Regards.

Can't create a new user session with KDE

Hi,
when I select "Switch user" in KDE, and try to start a new user session, I get dropped to a lockscreen of the currently logged-in user. I first thought this was a KDM issue, but this still persists with SDDM. I'd post any relevant logs, but I'm not even sure where to look for the source of the problem now.
Thanks in advance!

I have the exact same problem.

Executing Excel Session in Background

All,
In SAP BW 3.5 we created a recording (through transaction SHDB) of accessing transaction UPSPL (is a SAP transaction with an Excel session embedded in it, data in the excel is written to the SAP database). Then generated an ABAP report of the recording. When running the ABAP report through se38 in the background, the excel mentioned above is not called/executed correctly i.e. the macros in the excel are not executed (probably because simulating running Excel macros in background is technically not possible?).
When running the ABAP report in the foreground (setting 'call transaction'), the report perfectly executes the macro i.e. result is the same as accessing and saving the excel manually through UPSPL.
Read somewhere that installing Excel on SAP (BW) server could be an idea? Because in the above the Excel desktop version is called?
Would you know how to solve the above? Or experiences with it? Thanks.
Regards, Meindert Postma
PS also posted the above on the SAP BW/BPS forum, from a more BPS point of view.
Running BPS planning folder in background - possible?

Hi Meinder Postma
I don't know exactly how this works but I think it is like this:
The embedded excel functionality is obtained via SAPgui objects.
The application communicate with excel via a program-to-program-to-program interface between a program in the SAP kernel on the application server, via a SAPgui object on the PC with SAPgui installed and to excel on the same PC.
Like this:
Server SAP kernel <=> PC SAPgui <=> PC excel
In this setup I see no possible way that this can run in background, because in background you have no SAPgui communication at all.
best regards
Thomas
