Automatic generation of Reports in BI 7.0

Hi experts,
i'd like to know which passibility i have to generate Reports automatically and save in certain folders and make the users available to use. I know Broadcasting does it, but my customer doesn't use it so i have to find an alternative solution.
Thank you in advance.

Hi
Use RSCRM_BAPI Tcode, I used it working fine.

Automatic generation of report to email

Hi,
Im pretty new to the OBIEE environment and i would like to set up a scheduled job to run a report at a specific time which will email the result in an excel document to my email address.
I set up an iBot and saved it to My Folders
Condition condition - chose the report i created in Answers
Schedule - Scheduled it to start and end on a specific date and run every 5 mins (to test)
Recipient is set to Me
Delivery Content - Request the report i created in Answers and send as Excel attachment
Destination - Active Delivery Profile and Email
I have a default Email device set up in my settings with my email address.
I would like to run the report at a certain time and have it send to an email mailing list but when i save it nothing happens
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
Firstly ensure that you have enabled scheduler service by making required config then You can check the ibots log which get created in Oracle BI / Logs folder which would give you where exactly you went wrong. Let me know if you have any further Issues

Automating Generation of reports and mailing it.

Hi,
How do I automate generation of reports and mail it through the Oracle Server. The messaging system being implemented out here is Lotus Domino Server 4.6
Regards,
Alka Mishra.

Can you tell me more how to create store procedure UTL_HTTP or give me example and why I need to create a DB table with a DB trigger and give example too.
can I send to Internet email (if I have email address) or Unix mail only?
Thank you very much
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by The Oracle Reports team:
Assuming you are using Developer 1.6.1 or later and version 7.3 or later of Oracle database
1. set up the Reports server for web reporting (see whitepaper on configuring reports server available on otn for more info, and of course the doc).
2. Write a set of stored procedures that use UTL_HTTP to send an HTTP request to the Reports server. You can specify all the parameters to run a report on the URL (incl. running and mailling a report).
3. Create a DB table with a DB trigger that call the pacakged procedure you just wrote. Now every time a row is inserted (for example) into the table, a report can be run and the output mailed.
This will be made much easier/simpler in Reports 7 - but that is a way off.

Automatic generation of AWR reports

Hi,
How to schedule the automatic JOB to generate the AWR reports hourly basis. ( automatic comparing between 2 snapshots and then generate the text file).
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you want the report to be send to your mail through the ORACLE ENTERPRISE MANAGER than you have to write one perl script like below: Adjust statements and addresses as per your requirement.
The main views are:
dba_hist_snapshot & dba_hist_thread which are helping us in doing this.
Hope I answered your question

How to automatically save a report locally after a user has ran the report

Hi All,
I am currently working on a report where part of the the requirement is as follows:
--> report is to output into t CSV file that will be used later on.
--> report will need to write the CSV file into a defaulted location eg "C:\mydirectory\my_reports"
Therefore, the the user runs the report, it will automatically save into this directory instead of have to select the Export option on the report and save it to the required directory.
I am aware that bursting enables this feature and will save the file into a directory, however, I cannot find a solution that allows this automatic saving of reports to a specified directory.
Has anyone done this before or is it even possible?
Cheers,
Jonas

For that use iqy queries ...
here you will able to see more information on how to create iqy http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/10/31/oracle-bi-ee-101332-iqy-and-auto-generation-of-go-url/

Error in report generation-Load report failed

I have installed crystal reports for VS2005 runtime in my live environment.When i try to load the report file from a .Net page i am getting the error'Error in Report generation-Load report failed'.
This works fine in development and testing but when moved to production we are having issues.
I believe i have a workaround i.e i need to open the rpt in a VS 2005 environment and re-write the connection string again.This fix had worked in development and testing when we had the same issue.
But not sure if this is a known issue with crystal reports and if so do we have any hot fixes for the same.
Please help.

Hi Don,
The reason why i posted the item on 'data Connectivity issues' is because i suspect the problem is with the connection string.Though i had provided the correct connection string,re-writing the connection string with the same info might help to fix the issue with loading the report.
Does it mean that there is a problem in the connectivity?
I have a risk here that i cant re-write the connection string..i.e to open the RPT file in VS2005 and bind it.The production web server & database server sits in a third party environment and it is not in the company network.So i cant connect to this server to re-write from any other severs in the network.
Is there any fix which can applied to the server to get this issue resolved?
Cheers
Nithya.

9i:Can Page number be obtained before the entire generation of report ?

Dear all:
Suppose there is a report, the report is printed on both side of paper
The page no of report (current logical page no and total logical page no) reset at each customer,
For each customer,
i want to print a logo on the front side of the last page (The logo would be read by machine so that it must be printed on the front side of the last page)
In 6i, As page no/total page no cannot be known in function/triggers until entire report generated.
so I have to generate the report twice
First) I have to get the total no of paper for the report of each customer
Second) Actually generate the report
so that i know which page the logo should be printed
(In the format trigger, when the front side of last page reached, return true in "format trigger of the logo" to print the logo)
However, the method is not effective.
Heard from others, 9i can solve the problem because in function/trigger, before the entire generation of report,
the total logical no of page and current page can already be known. (so that the generation
can be done at one time..no need to do twice)
any suggestion ?
Thanks for you help

Hi,
So I cannot test from the report builder, I guess?Pl take a look here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B10314_01/pbr_cla.htm#640470
This gives you a list of commands that you can use the keyword with. It says No for rwbuilder. So it may not be possible to test it with Builder.
Reading the other threads, this seems to be a very complicated thing to do, creating EAR, etc, and I seem to need 9iDS, not AS (I have AS)?One of the main reasons a JSP report is useful is - you can deploy it with your J2EE application, ie, you place the report JSP alongwith other JSP's of your application, and deploy the J2EE application (EAR). So thats why you see so many references to EAR's, packaging etc in the other thread that discuss JSP's.
Th answer to your Q is - no, you don't need iDS for deploying and running the JSP. You can run it from your iAS installation (thats what the iAS suite is for - deploying and running your reports that you developed using iDS). What you need to do is this:
Copy your JSP to
ORACLE_HOME\j2ee\OC4J_BI_Forms\applications\reports\web
Go to the Enterprise Manager, and make sure that the OC4J instance (OC4J_BI_Forms) is running. Now access your JSP with the following URL:
http://machine:port/reports/<Report_Name>.jsp?server=<server_name>+userid=<db_conn_string>
For complete information about deploying and running JSP's in iAS, refer to
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B10314_01/pbr_run.htm#1011901

Question on automatic generation of PO's through ME59 ??

hi all,
while automatic generation of PO's from Pr's through me59n i need to check if the PR has OA ( outline agrement ) or contract assigned to it. if only OA or contract is assigned to PR then PO needs to be generated else PO should not be generated.
to summerize for PR's which does not have contract assigend to it. it should not generate PO's how do i restrict . please let me know.
Thanks,
Shiva..
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Mar 4, 2008 2:44 PM

Hi,
For automatic PO creation check the following steps.
1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.
6) Use T.Code: ME59N & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
Note:
1.Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
2.If you have more than one vendor then fixes only one vendor in source list.
3.During PR creation select the check box of Source Determination

I have an same issue like the following thread. After extract CSV file successfully to the directory, but unable to find the file. Any thought?
Automate a BI report to flat file on to a FTP server.
Regards!

Need to analyze the business purpose ,however heres my take on it..
You can utilize 3 options to export query result on to the SAP directories as below and map that path to your FTP server.
1. Transaction RSCRM_BAPI (still valid in nw2004s)
2. Transaction RSANWB (analytical Process designer)
3. Information Broadcasting - KM folder has to be mapped as a file system location.
Hope it Helps

How to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by a

Hi Experts,
In OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0,how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
For example:
In SampleLite RPD, when we drag "Time Hierarchy" and Sales column into the report , and sent it by agent ,it will only display "Total" sales, not show all level value,such as Year,Month,Day.So how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
If we expand all levels and save them, it will be ok, however, when we add new data, it will be collpased automatically and not show the lowest level data, requiring Users or Developer to modify this report for expanding the hierarchy. We think it is very trouble, is there any good suggestion or method for achieving our requirement?

Hi Dpka,
Is it any difference? I look at the result is same.
Firstly, you said it is 'Add member of ',
Now, you said it is 'Keep member of'
Could you please tell me which options I must select ? Thanks very much.Here is some notes from the documentation to make a better sense of how those two options would work:
•Selection steps — When you create selection steps, you can add a group or a calculated item in a step. Subsequent Keep Only or Remove steps might reference members that were included in the group or calculated item.
◦A group list is affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, but the group outline value remains the same. For example, suppose the MyNewYork group contains Albany and Buffalo and its value is 100. Suppose Albany is removed in a later step. The value of the MyNewYork group remains at 100, but Albany is no longer listed with the group.
◦A calculated item is not affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, because removals can affect the components of the formula.
•Groups and calculated items — A step can include a group or calculated item. Groups and calculated items can be used only with Add steps; they cannot be used in Keep Only or Remove steps.

To stop automatic generation of excise invoice for

Dear Experts,
I am creating Profroma Invoice just after Sales Order in export cycle. While saving the proforma invoice, system automatically generates excise invoice.
Will you please guide me how to stop the Proforma Invoice from automatic generation of excise invoice?
With regards,
Jhelum Roy.

Check the excise group for the transaction.
The follow the following path in SPRO:
IMG - LG- Tax on Goods Movements-India-Basic Settings-Maintain Excise Groups
There uncheck the box EXCISE INV DURING BILLING
As, this will create Excise Invoice automatically. So, it instructs the system to automatically create an outgong excise invoice immediately you create a commercial invoice or a pro forma invoice. The system creates the excise invoice in the background.
Also, If you want to make use of this function, you must also define the default plant, excise group, and series groups in Customizing for Excise Duty, by choosing Business Transactions -> Outgoing Excise Invoices -> Maintain Default Excise Groups and Series Groups.
If that is uncheck already, create & post inv single step indicator
As, this is automatic posting for J1IS and it instructs the system to automatically verify and post excise invoices that you create using the Excise Invoices for Other Movements transaction.
Thanks & Regards
JP
