BI 4.1 auditing sample reports in WebI format ?

Hi!
Is it possible to get auditing sample reports in WebI format instead of Crystal format (like in previous versions of BO) ?
When Crystal is not used by a custommer, it's a pity to install and run Crystal servers & client just for auditing reports, isn't it ?
Regards,
Stéphane.

Tilak,
All the information you need on the Audit Database can be found within the different Admin Guide and the sample UNX w/ Crystal Enterprise reports provided.

You can very easily reverse engineer the Crystal Enterprise Reports and create starter WebI reports and beyond.

Report on webi and Live office

Hi SAP Gurus ,
Can you send the flow of sample report on webi connect to Bw and wiil populate the data in Live Office. Documents
Regards
Deepu

I just talked to a SAP representative and he informed me that you cannot load a Excel spreadsheet using Live Office from the BO Enterprise while in Xcelsius. Basically that button in Xcellsius should have been grayed out. It is mentioned in the Xcelisus 2008 Release Notes.

Modification of Web Intelligence Sample Reports

I have found an example WebI Sample Report, that comes with the install. The title is Fold Unfold Sample. It could not be better suited for a quick solution. Does there exist a discussion on how to change the data source and fields?

I appreciate your patience. Just to confirm, I will need to breakdown each of the components and create them from scratch in a new webi. One last question. Beyond the videos are instructions related directly to the Samples available. I'm not really this lazy. My company is an old Crystal Reports Enterprise user. We bought SAP EDGE in the midst of a major expansion. Nearly a year later after finally dropping a couple of SAP developers that were not sufficiently prepared to implement what we had purchased, our backs are against the wall to to get critical elements in place for a roll out. No one, including our SAP provider, expected the SAP piece to take more than a few months. I apologize, I know this may be well beyond the scope of this forum. The SAP provider is being very generous and making every effort to make this right but it is taking time to identify the staff.

Auditing usage reports

I am trying to identify usage through the auditing tables..
Report Level.
Based on the Crystal Report ID. I would like to know everything that has happened with the rpt. who viewed, scheduled, modified schedule, deleted etc etc..
Personnel Level.
Based on the USERID. I would like to know everything a person has has done in the system logged in / out..viewed rpt, scheduled, modified schedule, deleted etc etc..
I am using the activity unv.. The associated docs are not very helpful
Does anybody have any sample webi/crystal reports using the activity unv or suggestions on what ID-s to key off of...
I have loaded the sample reports but not at the detail required.
Thanks
Bryan

If you have deployed the default reports and universe which was provided by SAP(link below) for auditing... you will see a folder called "Object Event" . In this folder you can see a crystal report named "Objects - Events Summary - by Object and Event Type" which should work for you http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/40711187-04e8-2d10-d190-851e20c7665a

Unable to edit sample reports in Excel

Hello,
I'm able to view sample reports from Business Intelligence Center when I browse from the PWA homepage, but when I hit "Open in Excel" I get the following error: "To open this workbook, your computer must have a version of Microsoft Excel installed
and your web browser must support opening files directly from Excel in your browser". If I go back to the sample reports page and use the drop down beside any sample report and select "Edit in Excel" and "Open", I get the following
error: "Microsoft Excel cannot access the file at ....ResourceCapacity.odc" followed by "Problems Obtaining Data" followed by "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).]SQLServer does not exist or access denied." Same thing
happens if I try to manually create a new data source through Excel. This happens for all sample reports, templates and data connections.
The weird part is that if I log onto the server (using the same AD credentials that I used for my laptop), open up PWA in a browser, go to Business Intelligence Center and try to edit any sample report, template or data connection in Excel, I have no issues.
Wouldn't that mean that Excel Services and Secure Store have been set up properly?
Wondering why no machine outside of the server can edit the reports etc...Any ideas?
Thanks,
André

Andre,
This is by design.
In Excel 2010/2013, the only way that the client can talk to the database is via an OLEDB connection. This requires direct read-only access and does not use Excel Services/Secure Store. If you are viewing the report via the web, then Secure Store/Excel Services
is used.
Because of the direct database access issue, you must be authenticated to the network before you can edit the reports. You would need to VPN into your network first. My chalk talk on this may be helpful.

I even slelect the font colour and size. When i run the class and try to view the report in Infoview, I only seeblank blocks without any data. Now if I edit the report from infoview, and save the changes, I am able to see the data.
My issue is, Why am I not able to see the data when I run the java code.
Please find teh code below.

Steps to link a report to Web Application Form. Post Your Opinion

Hi friends,
After going through it what is your opinion. please do post your opinion.
Could any one give the complete steps of Linking a report to web form so that when called / clicked the link the report can display the data.
I have unchecked the "Report Option -> Save Data with Reports". So that the report could not take extra space.
I have DB connection code in my .aspx.vb file, it is as follows:
Private Sub ConfigureCrystalReports()
Dim fileName As String = "Reports\" & ReportID & ".rpt"
Dim reportPath As String = Server.MapPath(fileName)
myRepDoc = New ReportDocument()
myRepDoc.Load(reportPath)
myCrystalReportViewer.ReportSource = myRepDoc
myCrystalReportViewer.RefreshReport()
Dim myConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo = New ConnectionInfo()
If Session("reportConnectionInfo") IsNot Nothing Then
Dim ConnInforArrList As ArrayList = DirectCast(Session("reportConnectionInfo"), ArrayList)
myConnectionInfo.ServerName = ConnInforArrList(0)
myConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = ConnInforArrList(1)
myConnectionInfo.UserID = ConnInforArrList(2)
myConnectionInfo.Password = ConnInforArrList(3)
Else
lblMessage.ForeColor = Drawing.Color.Red
lblMessage.Text = "Session is off. Please Relogin to See the Report."
End If
SetDBLogonForReport(myConnectionInfo, myRepDoc)
SetDBLogonForSubreports(myConnectionInfo, myRepDoc)
myCrystalReportViewer.SelectionFormula = GetFieldName(ReportID) & "='" & Session("CompCode") & "'"
myCrystalReportViewer.Visible = True
End Sub
Private Sub SetDBLogonForReport(ByVal myConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo, ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument)
Dim myTables As Tables = myReportDocument.Database.Tables
For Each myTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In myTables
Dim myTableLogonInfo As TableLogOnInfo = myTable.LogOnInfo
myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = myConnectionInfo
myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myTableLogonInfo)
Next
End Sub
Private Sub SetDBLogonForSubreports(ByVal myConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo, ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument)
Dim mySections As Sections = myReportDocument.ReportDefinition.Sections
For Each mySection As Section In mySections
Dim myReportObjects As ReportObjects = mySection.ReportObjects
For Each myReportObject As ReportObject In myReportObjects
If myReportObject.Kind = ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject Then
Dim mySubreportObject As SubreportObject = CType(myReportObject, SubreportObject)
Dim subReportDocument As ReportDocument = mySubreportObject.OpenSubreport(mySubreportObject.SubreportName)
SetDBLogonForReport(myConnectionInfo, subReportDocument)
If myReportObject.Name = "Subreport1" Then
Dim lvSec As Section = subReportDocument.ReportDefinition.Sections("DetailSection1")
If Not lvSec Is Nothing Then
Dim t1 As TextObject
t1 = lvSec.ReportObjects("txtEmpName")
t1.Text = Session.Contents("EmpName")
Dim t2 As TextObject
t2 = lvSec.ReportObjects("txtRepID")
t2.Text = Request.QueryString("REPID")
End If
End If
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
Please do help me out as the data of report is not getting displayed on the report.
After going through it what is your opinion. please do post your opinion.
While creating the Report has the following Report Options on / checked.
1. Database Server is Case-Incensitive
2. Use Indexes Or Server For Speed
3. Verify on First Refresh
4. Show Preview Panel
5. Display Alerts on Refresh
6. Select Distinct Data for Browsing
Do I have check or uncheck any other option?
Thanks and regards

Sir AG,
Thanks a lot for replying and spending your valuable time for my problem.
Sir, I just want to put this in your knowledge that my application is web based application and I am calling these reports through web forms i.e. of ASP.NET coded in vb from .aspx.vb files.
So as per the code I have attached, I have this
Option Explicit On
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Next for ReportDocument Object:
Dim fileName As String = "Reports\" & ReportID & ".rpt"
        Dim reportPath As String = Server.MapPath(fileName)
        myRepDoc = New ReportDocument()
        myRepDoc.Load(reportPath)
        myCrystalReportViewer.ReportSource = myRepDoc
Above is the code used by me in Page_Init and I have already tested it from Page_Load. I have got few suggestions from this forum that I should put this code in Page_Init only.
Lastly:
The database connectivity code:
Dim myConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo = New ConnectionInfo()
        If Session("reportConnectionInfo") IsNot Nothing Then
            Dim ConnInforArrList As ArrayList = DirectCast(Session("reportConnectionInfo"), ArrayList)
            myConnectionInfo.ServerName = ConnInforArrList(0)
            myConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = ConnInforArrList(1)
            myConnectionInfo.UserID = ConnInforArrList(2)
            myConnectionInfo.Password = ConnInforArrList(3)
        Else
            lblMessage.ForeColor = Drawing.Color.Red
            lblMessage.Text = "Session is off. Please Relogin to See the Report."
        End If
        SetDBLogonForReport(myConnectionInfo, myRepDoc)
        SetDBLogonForSubreports(myConnectionInfo, myRepDoc)
SetDBLogonForReport(myConnectionInfo, myRepDoc)
Private Sub SetDBLogonForReport(ByVal myConnectionInfo As ConnectionInfo, ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument)
        Dim myTables As Tables = myReportDocument.Database.Tables
        For Each myTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In myTables
            Dim myTableLogonInfo As TableLogOnInfo = myTable.LogOnInfo
            myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = myConnectionInfo
            myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myTableLogonInfo)
        Next
    End Sub
This code I have got from a sample of the forum itself.
Sir, after all these effort and the unchecking of option "Save Data with Report" on calling the reports from my forms it is showing blank report. No data from the database is coming form the database.
I have uncheked the option "Save Data with Reports" to get the updated data each time the report has been called but now the status is that nothing is coming.
Thanks again for you precious and valuable effort to help me but the my problem is unsolved, So sir please if you could put an eye on it and help me out to get rid of this problem, I will be very thankful to you for your kind help.
Thanks and regards
Mushtaque

Apply Button not working in Report viewer web part in SP 2013

I have a SSRS report which gets values from SSAS cube, with more than 10 parameters defined in the report. All the parameters are multi-select parameters and the report is deployed in SharePoint 2013 integrated mode.
I created a web page and integrated the SSRS report inside a report viewer web part. All the report parameters are from Performance Point filters. All the PPS filters are connected to SSRS report.
The problem is each and every time the parameter is re-selected(changed) the whole page gets refreshed.
So I added a Apply button, so that the report gets refreshed only after clicking the Apply button. Even after adding the apply button the report gets refreshed on each parameter change.
Can you please let me know why the apply button is not working and possible solutions to overcome this.

Hi,
There's no much similar issues I have found.
I suggest you consider opening a support case with us, provided the sample code for reproduce and version of SQL Servr. You may visit this link to see the various support options that are available to better meet your needs:

Correction for Daily Report Log Web Service

In the August 29th iTunes U Administrator email, there was a mistake in the example for the Daily Report Log Web Service.
The example showed:
http://deimos.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/API/GetDailyReportLogs/example.edu?S tartDate=2007-07-01&EndDate=2007-07-17&destination=example.edu&username=ADMIN&ac cesskeys=Administrator@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:example.edu&emailaddress=foo@b ar.com&displayname=test&expiration=1186086577&signature=4443ac48a8ae1a0c50dbfb35 f201b6d0db14b16d
There are extraneous form value pairs in the above example. The POST form values required to get a daily report are:
StartDate (EndDate is optional) - format YYYY-MM-DD
credentials
identity

Currently displaying audit log reports in REST or API is not supported by Microsoft. SharePoint online in Office 365 just supports saving an audit log report as a Microsoft Excel 2012 Preview workbook.

Problem running report in web layout

Hi
I have a problem of running my report in web layout.
If i run the report in web layout it does not show the changes that i made to it , the colors and text sizes and styles, if I used no templates and changed the report manually it will just show the report as before it was modified.
But when I run it in paper layout every works fine.
Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Also I tested with the sample Report Test.rdf (Comes along with installation).
Even that runs well in Paper Layout and report hangs when run in Web Lay out.
Please help me with your valuable inputs on this regard.
Thanks and Regards,

The page cannot be displayed while running the report with web link

Hello,
I tried to run the report using a web link similar:
http://hostname/reports/rwservlet?report=WRFTCKL.rdf&userid=use/pass@datbase&desformat=pdf&destype=CACHE&paramform=yes
I am able to see the parameter form, but after I entered some parameter and submit, I got an error as:
The page cannot be displayed.
But if I run it with the paramform=no and attached the parameter/value pair at the end of the link, the report will show on the web.
Anyone knows what is wrong?
Thanks.

How to publish Report Viewer reports as Web Services

I have some reports templates (.rdlc) having only business objects as data sources (no direct SQL connection). They are working well with Windows Report Viewer. Now I am think to make the reports available via web services to multiple apps. Is there
a way to do that? Any sample?
Thanks,
Jason

Hello,
SQL Server Reporting Services provides access to the full functionality of the report server through the Report Server Web service. In order to meet your requirement, you
can try to converting an .rdlc file to an .rdl file
and then deploy the report to report server.
If you want to rendering the report in your application, you can try to use the ReportViewer controls in remote processing mode.

Crystal Reports and Web applications.. what is the future?

Hello,
I currently create reports in Crystal 11 R2 and display them within my intranet application using an SDK and asp calls.
I would like to know what the future holds for this method... what upgrade path do I have?
Certainly I intend to keep things the way they are as we have a large number of reports but I would like to know what options I will have to investigate\be aware of for the future?
I realise my question is a bit open ended...
What does SAP\Business Objects\Crystal decsions advocate in this regard... what is their prefered methond of providing reporting for web type applications?
PS. I am not interested in portals etc. The application provides paramters and DSN switching at run time within the application.
Cheers,

Hi Scott,
Moved to .NET SDK forum. Your next move is to ASP.NET and to CR Assemblies through RAS ( Report Application Server ). It is the replacement for the RDC you currently use.
Lots of samples on how to through our WIKI:

Hello,
<p>You can inspire from this article<br>It is a sample dialog that allows to launch any report with 0 up to 10 parameters.<br>Open the sample dialog, then you can see how the Run_Report_Object() built-in is used in the Start_Report program unit..<p>
