Authentification Open Document Link

Hello
I'm using WebI in BO Edge with SAP authentification. The Report has an open document Link to a Crystal Reports. The Databas configuration of this Report (CMC) is set to SSO.
When I stert the WebI and click on the Link, a window pops up with a logon prompt.
I it possible to avoid this second authentification?

Hi Stratos
Thx for your answer.
I am using the hostname directly.

Open Document Link on PO Approval WF

In the PO Approval Workflow, if you have the proper responsibility, an "open document" link is displayed that, when clicked, takes the user to a screen entitled "Notifications to Releases".
This function is available to our Purchasing Super User responsibility but is not available for the Purchasing Approver responsibility. I'm trying to change that.
Using help, I determined that the form associated with "Notifications to Releases" is POXPOERL. That form is assocated with the following functions and menus:
FORM_NAME     FUNCTION_NAME     MENU_NAME
POXPOERL     PO_POXPOERL     CHV_CHVSSWKB_FUNCTIONS
POXPOERL     PO_POXPOERL     PO_POXSTNOT_FUNCTIONS
POXPOERL     PO_POXPOERL     PO_POXPOVPO_FUNCTIONS
POXPOERL     PO_POXPOERL     PO_PURCHASE_ORDERS_GUI
POXPOERL     PO_POXPOERL     POS_INTERNAL_HP_MENU
POXPOERL     PO_POXPPOERL_VIEW     PO_POXSTNOT_FUNCTIONS
POXPOERL     PO_POXPPOERL_VIEW     PO_REQUESTOR_GUI
POXPOERL     PO_POXPPOERL_VIEW     PO_POXPOERL_FUNCTIONS
POXPOERL     PO_POXPPOERL_VIEW     PO_POXBWVRP_FUNCTIONS
I've tried, under Functional Developer, to add several of these to the menu for Purchasing Approver. When they show up on the menu and I click them, I get a message stating: "You are not setup as a buyer. To access this form you need to be a buyer."
All I want is for people to be able to see and use the "Open Form Command". Am I going about this the wrong way?

I was probably not clear enough in my original question.
We want people who are approvers - but not necessarily buyers - to be able to open the form from the link. I'm not set up as a buyer, but I have the Purchasing Superuser responsibility and I can open the form.
I guess, bottom line... some more information on how to make links to eBiz forms work from WF would be helpful. I've not found much in the Oracle-supplied documentation that we have; I've read what's in the Developer's Guide and the Admin guide. Can anyone suggest a web link or two that might shed more light on the process?

Link to document not opening document in browser or client app

hi All,
i am using office 365 e1, i have aspx page on which we are fetching link of document and showing using CSOM. when user click on link instead of opening in client app or browser it is downloading.
if you have solution please help me

Hi,
According to your description, you want to open document link in client app or browser.
You need to active the “Open Documents in Client Applications by Default” feature.
I suggest you do as the followings:
1. Open “Site Settings”->”
Site Collection Features”.
2. Active the “Open Documents in Client Applications by Default” feature.
I did a test in my environment, here is a screen capture below:
http://tinypic.com/r/f05egm/8
Do you mean that it will download file or just an open alert in the browser after you click the document link ?
Please provide your detailed information such as screen capture, it will be easier for us to find the solution of the issue.
More information about open documents link in client app, please refer:

How to Change URL of BPA after clicking on Open Document in PO Notification for India Localization?

In the Purchase Order Approval workflow notification , there are two links at the bottom of page under heading REFERENCES,
- view PDF
- open document
So when we click on open document, the Oracle Forms loads and purchase order screen will appear in the screen.
In case of India localization, for standard PO the India local screen opens, where we can see the taxes by clicking on Taxes Button.
But in case of blanket purchase agreements, when we click on open document link from the notification,we are routed to the application with the screen of global purchase order, instead it
should go to Purchase Orders(Localization).
We want to move to the India local po screen for BPA.
So please let me know, where I can change the URL for Blanket Purchase Agreements.

Open Document WEBI

Hi All,
I am using OPEN Document link to create master detail report in Web Intelligence. Link is working fine with my user ID, but when I handed over this report to end user it is throwing following error while opening the link. "Cannot build the query or generate the report (WIS 30351)" Seem to me an authorization issue, we are using single sign on to login into BI 4.0 SP 6. My user has admin rights in BW whereas the end user has been given with query access.
As this link will call webservice so is there any specific authorization for this or if this is some other issue.
Please suggest.
regards,

Hi Sunder,
Thanks for your reply, as it is working perfectly fine with my user and few other users who have admin rights in BW so I don't think this could be the patch related issue. The only problem I am seeing right now is authorizations, I gave admin rights to this user in BI 4.0 but as it is single sign on so I am not sure which authorizations are required on BW side to allow this web service.
Any suggestion.
Regards,

Open document using QAWS Xcelcius.

Hi All,
The OpenDocument link is for an object with QAAWS and Xcelsius and when we hit on the link it pops out with error "The session has been logged off or has expired. (FWM 01002) ".
The work aroud is that we need to login to infoview first and then open the link it works fine.
We are using Open doc SSO using ( Vintela SSO )in XI3.1which is working fine.
When i gone through the knowledge base i could see that there is a know issue with Xcelsius using SSO and it got resloved in SP2 so will this gonig to effect my open document link.
Thanks for understanding..

I've had opendocument SSO working fine with vintela since 3.1, but I haven't tested every scenario. It could be a bug, I'll look up the adapt tomorrow to see the details.
As far as I knew this function was working fine for quite a few of our customers. I set it up my self for several.
EDIT: I looked at the adapt and apparently is was an xcelsius bug only not actually with opendocument. It is set to be fixed in SP2 and another patch for xcelsius clients only

Tim

Open Document Icon Missing for PO Reqs but working for POs

Hi All,
If there are POs and PO requisitions that are awaiting for your approval. You would typically go to Purchasing super user -> Notification Summary -> Worklist choose po/poreqs -> click Open document link to view/make changes prior approving.
The Open Document Link is woking when you open POs but missing for PO Reqs. I went through many docs such as (Metalink doc 356969.1). But unsuccessful. I am think it’s some sort of setup/configuration/profile that needs to be changed.
My Problem is to get the missing Icon for PO Reqs too. Does anyone has info please help me. I dont even know where to look for. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kalyan.

Open document to open multiple reports

Hi
i have created 3 Webi Reports, namely
Report 1
Report 2
Report 3
Report 1 has company and its revenue
Report 2 has Site and its Revenue
Report 3 has Service and its revenue
Example :
Report 1
Company Revenue
abc 456
adf 789
dsd 145
Report 2
Site Revenue
s1 7255
s2 8985
s3 4444
Report 3
Services Revenue
sr1 10
sr2 15
sr3 45
which falls under the hierarchy
1.company -> Site
2.company -> Service
In Report 1 , i should have a open document link on Company object, if i click any of the company, it should ask for options to navigate either to Report 2 or Report 3 ie by SITE or SERVICE.
Is this possible by open document functionality in Web intelligence. If so please guide step by step.
i have tried directly creating a object with hyperlink from universe
Case @Prompt('Select Measure: ','A',{'Site', 'Service'},MONO,CONSTRAINED)
 When 'Site' then ="<a href='#' on.click=\"javascript:window.open('http://ptpl-vm3:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=Afkjn4VJ.qpHqciiP5iOlwE&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&sRefresh=N&lsSEnterYear%3A="+[Year]+"')\">"+[Year]+"</a>"
 When 'Service' then ="<a href='#' on.click=\"javascript:window.open('http://ptpl-vm3:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AdLLgIJn7XJCv85q2wVZlOo&sIDType=CUID&lsSEnterYear%3A="+[Year]+"&lsSEnterQuarter%3A="+[Quarter]+"')\">"+[Year]+"</a>"
End
its throwing an error on parse failed.
and also tried in infoview, creating hyperlink
="<a href='#' on.click=\"javascript:Case @Prompt('Select Measure: ','A',{'Site', 'Service'},MONO,CONSTRAINED)
 When 'Site' then
 window.open('http://ptpl-vm3:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=Afkjn4VJ.qpHqciiP5iOlwE&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&sRefresh=N&lsSEnterYear%3A="+[Year]+"')
 When 'Service' then
 window.open('http://ptpl-vm3:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AdLLgIJn7XJCv85q2wVZlOo&sIDType=CUID&lsSEnterYear%3A="+[Year]+"&lsSEnterQuarter%3A="+[Quarter]+"')\">"+[Year]+"
End
</a>"
which is also not working.
is there an way to create this ?
Regards
dineshkumar

I'm not sure if what you're asking is possible, but perhaps this alternate design will work for your users.
Have two additional columns. Each column will have it's own hyperlink, one column for 'By Service' one for 'By Site'. It takes up more room on the page, but from the user's perspective, they only need to click once to get to the report they want, rather than click the company, then select which report they want to see.
Just a thought...

Clicking on document link opens Safari, but Safari doesn't open link

For some time -- even before upgrading to OS10.8 -- I've been having an issue with Safari. I receive links in emails or other documents, click on them, and when Safari opens, it fails to load the link. Sometimes I see the URL appear in the address bar for a moment, but it vanishes and I am left with a blank "Untitled" Safari page. If I then click on the email (or other) reference link again -- now with Safari open -- everything works fine. I've not seen this reported as a problem by anyone else so am wondering if I have a software conflict. There are two programs running from within Safari, one is 1Password (although that requires a manually entered password to open) and the other is Norton Identity. Perhaps one of those is a culprit. Anyone else seen this behavior?

More than likley, Norton is the culprit. Norton software has caused so many Mac users problems over a long period of time.
Results from an Apple Support Communities search for Norton > Community Search: Apple Support Communities
Follow the instructions at the Symantec/Norton site for uninstalling Norton Identity.
As for one 1Password. Using the pre installed Apple native Keychain Access utility is much better to use than third party. Keychain Access is located in HD > Applications > Utilities.
Remove Norton Identidy first, restart your Mac and try opening a link from email to test.

Linking a WEBI report through hyperlink in a webpage using open document

Hi All,
I have a hyper link in a web page which when clicked should open a WEBI report. I created it using the open document feature.
Once clicking on the link, InfoView login credential page is displayed. After logging in the report runs.
My client does not want the login page to be displayed since most of the users does not remember their password (since SSO is implemented).
He wants to bypass this login page so that most of the users can directly view the reports.
Question:
Is there a way to achieve this i.e without asking for login credentials or by passing this?
Possibilities :
1: To create ID's for all the people (which I think is not a feasible option in my project)
2: Create a guest account with minimum privileges and share the password with all the users.
Note:
1: I use BO XI R 3.1.
2: No SDK is installed to do any programming.
Any suggestion are most welcome.
Thanks in advance

Hi Shreyas,
Manual Easy Way for doing the activity in SAP Business Objects 4.0:
This method is useful if we have a special system account that we want everyone to use.
You will notice that all we do is generate a logon token using the appropriate username, password and CMS variables. Then we append the token onto ivsLogonToken.
Note: The numbers on the url after /BOE/portal represents the timestamp of the last patch or install. You can put whatever you want under the number section and Business Objects will automatically redirect to the appropriate start.do
Step I:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
Step II:
You can copy the contents from the custom.jsp that I’ve provided below to your custom.jsp.
Cutom.JSP File
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException" %>
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.framework.*" %>

Edit the username,Password & BOBJ Server Name'in BOLD Letter
Step III:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
Step IV:
Trusted Authentication:
Trusted Authentication is a component of Enterprise authentication that integrates with third-party single sign-on solutions, including Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). Applications
that have established trust with the Central Management Server can use Trusted Authentication to allow users to log on without providing their passwords.
This method is really cool because users don’t even have to know their passwords. Basically with this method you can log into another system and if that system has the appropriate user name, you can pass it to the custom.jsp and then it will log you into BI Launchpad.
In addition, you don’t need to create any java code for the enterprise token setup.
Step V:
In the CMC, go to Authentication, then select Enterprise. Check Trusted Authentication is enabled, then click on New Shared Secret. Finally download the shared secret key and keep it somewhere secure
Step VI:
Copy global.properties from <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\default into <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\custom. Then using Notepad or another text editing utility, edit the following properties
sso.enabled=true
trusted.auth.user.retrieval=WEB_SESSION
trusted.auth.user.param=UserName
trusted.auth.shared.secret=<secret code from properties file you created in step 2>
Step VII:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
<\!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

Can you force a link inside a .pdf to open the "linked to" document in a new window?

When I have a link inside my .pdf document - linking to another .pdf document or to a Word document - how can I force the linked-to document to open in a new window?
I have a web site (business internal, so unfortunately I cannot point to it). My HTML menu has links to .pdf documents - no problem. However, once I open those .pdfs, they contain links to other .pdfs and to Word documents. Clicking on these links, which reside inside my .pdfs, opens the "linked-to" docs in the same page. How can I force them to open in a brand new frame?
All of my .pdfs were originally created in Word, and in the Word versions, the links DO open into new frames. I am not sure why, when I convert them to .pdfs, they lose this feature.
Can anyone help?

Hi Magenta,

I am getting the error code, "error opening document, please try agailater" when clicking on the application link from a website. The form was working properly but stopped. What happened?.

My form was working properly but today, 20 June, an applicant clicked on the website link and got an error that says, "error opening document, please try again later". How can this be fixed?

Is this a FormsCentral form?

Word document links won't open in IE 9

I got a user who cannot open up a word document link in sharepoint online that should display a word dialog box basically in IE 9. When clicking, nothing happens even if pop up blocker is off, but he can access the word documents from the link in Firefox.
I also found out that I am able to open it up under my windows profile on that machine so it must be a corrupted windows profile.
I reset IE
Cleared cache
Verified in registry in class roots that .html is set to htmlfile
Anything I can do besides redoing the user's windows profile?
