Authorization for dashboard publishing

Hi,
I'm using the Netweaver BI connection on Xcelsius. When I try to publish my dashboard, I recieve the error "You don't have the necessary authorization to perform this action".
I've already got some portal roles like "Super Administration", "System Admin", "Content Admin" etc.
Does anyone knows the role names that are needed to publish the dashboard?
Thanks,
Erdem

Hi Victor,
Thanks for the information. As I also ran into the same problem.
If any body faces the same problem and unaware of security activity like role creation then here is a link. Go to 4 th Option. The document has the step by step guide for it.

Creating Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report

hi,
I have created Parameters in my BI Publisher Report and in SQL query. But i need to create same parameters in RTF Template , so that when i publish this report in dashboard , parameters will be visible. Can you please tell me how to create Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report ? I am not finding option. Please let me know .
Thanks in advance
Gayathri.

all the parameter's value will be there in your xml .
just you need to add parameter heading and corresponding xml tag name to get the parameter value on the report.
if u dont have you can try like below
https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/get_your_parameters_here_guv
Declare Parameter in RTF Template
Before you use the parameter in the RTF template file you need to declare it first. You can do so by having the following syntax.
<?param@begin:%parameter_name%?>
Note: where %parameter_name% is the parameter name that you have created at the BI Publisher Server UI.
Here is an example:
<?param@begin:param1?>
Use it in RTF Template!
Once it’s declared in the RTF template you can start using it as the same way you use the variable. You need to just add ‘$’ prefix in front of the parameter name. Here is the example:
<?$param1?>
The above example would print the parameter value in the report output. If you want to use this value in your condition or calculation you can simply use it as ‘$param1’. Yes, it’s that simple.
If you are not sure if and how the parameter values are passed to the report when you run the report you can use this command in your RTF template, which will return all the parameter values passed to the RTF template at the runtime.
<?xdoxslt:getXDOProperties($_XDOCTX)?>

Roles & Authorizations for Web Reports...

Hello Experts,
We are newly implementing Web Reports in our organization. I need your great thoughts regarding implementing Authorizations for users to access the reports.
We are using a report menu page that contain links to all the reports. The page opens by clicking on a link on the portal. The individual reports are basically accessed from this page by clicking on the corresponding button (links a URL ).
I wonder if there is any way to look into the menu page (XHTML code of that web page/application) when ever the users click on the reports link and disable those buttons that the users are not allowed to access depending on the roles users are assigned to. Otherwise is there any better way to do it.
And also how to call a function from web applications.
This is a kind of urgent issue any quick ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I apologize for the difficulty in reading this I will repost.
We have had no training or received any documenation on WAD. The below was created from internet research. Hence there may be WAD functionality that would allow easier maintenance, however; this is what we use.
With our dashboard, I have a web template that contains hyperlinks for our reports. I will call this HeaderTemplate1. For each web page I have report templates. These report templates have the HeaderTemplate1 mentioned above as well as the report tables, charts, text elements, tabs, etc.
The JavaScript logic for accessing the urls of the specific report templates is contained within our HeaderTemplate1.
Below is how our setup was tested. Keep in mind, this was only for testing basic functionality. If this is something we use I will most likely create a master data table that houses the user ID and an attribute for the header type. Thus, any report menu changes can be altered quickly without changing the javascript of each report template. Also this will accomodate the few thousand users we have.
To add the functionality of different 'menus', I created another header template with the same hyperlinks of HeadertTemplate1 with the exception of one or two hyperlinks. This, HeaderTemplate2, was added to each report template just below HeaderTemplate1. Note that both HeaderTemplate1 and HeaderTemplate2 were set as visible on each report template.
Also, on each report template I added a text element. The 'List of Text Elements'property was set as such; Element Type = General Text Sympol, Element ID = SYUSER. This Text Element was linked to a query or view from BEx via the dataprovider. On the HTML side, I surrounded this Text Element with
<Font ID="UserID",,,textelement....</Font>
Each Report template has this javascript function, fnRepOnLoad, which is triggered at the OnLoad event.
[<SCRIPT language = "JAVASCRIPT">
function fnRepOnLoad()
    var user_ID=document.getElementById("UserID").innerHTML;
    if (user_ID=='USER123')
      document.all["HEADTMPLT1"].style.visibility = 'hidden';
      document.all["HEADTMPLT1"].style.position = 'absolute';
    else
      document.all["HEADTMPLT2"].style.visibility = 'hidden';
      document.all["HEADTMPLT2"].style.position = 'absolute';
</script>
The function results as this. If the user is USER123, HeaderTemplate1 is hidden, leaving only HeaderTemplate2 visible. Otherwise HeaderTemplate2 is invisible leaving on HeaderTemplate1 visible.
We do not use buttons as our global leaders prefer hyperlinks but buttons can be enabled or disabled similarly.
As mentioned before, if this method is implemented, I will create a reportable master data table. Create a customer exit variable to retrieve the header template required for the user. This header template variable value will then be pulled by a text element on each report template. The script function will act as follows. If many report headers are necessary I may use a case statement.
Var User_template=document.getElementById("UserTmplt").innerHTML;
If UserTmplt = HeaderTemplate1
--> make all header templates other than HeaderTemplate1 invisible
else
--> make all header templates other than HeaderTemplate2 invisible
etc...
I hope this helps. Please keep me posted with your solution. I am very interested to learn what others are doing.
Best Regards,
Larry

"Low-level" authorizations for accessing BW reports - add users to role

Using the advice in Topic "Low-level" authorizations for accessing BW reports, I have been able to publish a query to a role that has 3 test users and each user gets the same query but with different data, as determined in the tables.
Is there a way to look up the users and e-mail addresses from a table and associate them to the role? We have several hundred e-mail recipients that will not need BW access, but only need an e-mail with a static report that contains data on their own territories.

Hi!
i think programatically it might be complex. You got to maintain a seperate variant of report per user and use this variant to send mail. that means you need to maintain a variant and a Broadcast setting per user. once maintained you can use it any number of times the values will be recalculated everytime.
with regards

"No write authorization for personal portfolio of user" from BW

Hi, we are working on connection from BW 3.5 InfoBroadcaster into EP 6.
When I try to publish BW webtemplate to EP to my personal portfolio I got follwoing messages:
"<i>Settings were started from the BEx Broadcaster
Processing for user AC3339, language EN
   Processing setting
    No write authorization for personal portfolio of user AC3339
    File 'ZM_P2P_SCORECARD_ORG_HIER_STAT' Was Successfully Created in the Portal</i>"
Unfortunatelly, after this I cannot find this report in EP. Can anyone help us with this error?
Thank you
Vitaliy

Did you setup authorizations as described:
On BW side: You need special authorizations to be able to use information broadcasting. System administrators need authorization object S_RS_ADMWB with the field RSADMWBOBJ = BR_SETTING. Users that precalculate business intelligence content and would like to schedule things require the authorization object S_RS_BCS. To be able to schedule broadcaster jobs in background the authorization to run batch jobs should be granted on BW side. The authorization object is S_BTCH_JOB "Background Processing: Operations on Background Jobs"
From my own experience:
On portal side: The users, to which personal folders it is necessary to publish, should exist both in EP and BW (have the same name), be active and have Business Explorer role assigned in EP (i.e. "Personal BEx documents" folder in KM should exist for them)

Reseting page number in Word RTF template for BI Publisher PDF generation

Hi!
Apex 4.0.2, Oracle 10.2.0.4, BIP 10.2
Bills are created based on Word RTF file with BI Publisher. Reszulting file is one big PDF file, which has many pages.
Word RTF template is grouped on BILLS.ID field with page break option. So one BILLS.ID may have one or many pages (according data).
How to create RTF template (for PDF BI Publisher generation) with reseting page numbers when grouping value change.
Page numbers are in footer in format
curr_group_page/total_group_pages
where:
curr_group_page is current page number in group (defined with BILLS.ID field),
total_group_pages is total page number of pages in group (defined with BILLS.ID field).
I need to reset numbering whenever BILLS.ID (group) change.
Example:
ID=1 (4 pages)
1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4
ID=2 (1 pages)
1/1
ID=3 (2 pages)
1/2, 2/2
ID=4 (3 pages)
1/3, 2/3, 3/3
etc.
How to achieve that kind of numbering?
Any help appreciated.

Simple question.. Does your posting deal with an APEX issue or a BI Publisher issue? The posting you have deals with the RTF add-on for Word that builds report layouts for BI Publisher. I suggested in my response that you move it to a more relevant forum..
If you feel that me alerting you to the fact your are VIOLATING forum policy is an issue, please feel free to ask others their view.. (posting to a 3 year old closed thread, creating MULTIPLE threads for a single issue..) You do NOT seem to get the idea that posting this in the Bi Publisher support forum would probably get you a BETTER response than here.. Asking pl/sql questions here will also get people to refer your questions to the PL/Sql Support forum..
Also, here is a POSSIBLE answer from the BI Publisher Forum: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=594805
This Is The APEX SUPPORT forum, we deal with SUPPORT questions on APEX (Application Express)..

Authorization for opening & Closing posting periods - OB52

Hi,
Is there any way to set authorization for opening & closing of posting periods in OB52?
My scenario:
I have 2 company codes - A & B assigned to 2 different posting period variant - say PPA & PPB.
The user belonging to CoCd A should not be able to open/close posting period of CoCd B and vice versa.
Is this possible through any authorization settings?
Request your help on this.
Regards,
Sridevi

Hi Sridevi
Please go through the following:
You can assign authorization groups for permitted posting periods. This means that, for example, some posting periods can only be opened for particular users within monthly or annual closing. You can only assign the authorization group at document header level and it only affects period 1. The authorization object is called F_BKPF_BUP (Accounting document: Authorizations for posting periods). Read the corresponding chapter on "User maintenance" in the "Assigning authorizations" topic.
"User maintenance"
Due to the modular authorization concept of the system, you can define authorization profiles which are tailored to the workplace of your employees. You can, for example, assign authorization to a workplace in the Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable or General Ledger Accounting areas.
By assigning authorizations you define which business-related objects your employees are allowed to process and which editing functions are allowed.
In the following activities for authorization management, you must carry out the following for employees who are to work with the system:
Assign authorizations
The authorizations are assigned by specifying permitted values for the pre-defined objects.
Define profiles
In the SAP system, authorizations are grouped together in workplace profiles. Therefore one or more profiles must be allocated to the individual employee in the master record.
I hope this helps.

Authorizations for materials and material groups

Hello experts,
Is it possible to limit the authorization to make purchase requerisiton of some materials or material groups depending on the user?
I heard that it is possible be able to update some materials using the authorization M_MATE_MAT and including them in the material master, material group and user. But this also works for the creation of purchasing documents (PR,PO,RFQ,...)? Do I have to include this authorization for all the materials? If they do not have I understand that works for every people.
Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards,

Hi Madii,
actually Authorization works at the object level, i.s if you have provided the authorization for the user to makePR with certain Material Grp, then if you dont define that grp in the PO role, but still user will get the authorization from the PR role.
why you want to allow the user to make the PR of certain Mtrl Grp for which he should not be making the PO.
or let a different Body take care of the other mtrl Grp.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
How could I do it with an approval procedure?
You can create approval stages and template by using query
Is it with a query?
Yes
Will it be similar to a formatted search?
Yes
Try this query for row level with only one item.
Select Distinct 'True' FROM OWTR T0 inner join WTR1 T1 on T0.docentry = T1.docentry
Where $[$23.5.0] = 'ExScrap'
Note: Replace Exscrap with your warehouse name.

Cancel a SD invoice error message "no authorization for transaction FB08"

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to cancel a SD invoice and am receiving the error message " no authorization for transaction FB08" is coming. Never has this happened in past, i have checked all the security authorizations also and they are in place. Accounting document status is showing as not cleared. Also, as per my understanding cancellation of invoice happens through VF11 which does not calls FB08. Please point out reasons as to why this could be happening and the possible solution thereof.
regards
Anmol Pareek

Hi Anmol
Once you got the error screen, immediately after that goto T code SU53 and expand all link. Take the screen shot and send it to your BASIS team to provide you proper access.
Yes you are correct cancellation is done through VF11 but sometime some programs internally calls other T codes.
take help of your basis team.
