BI Reports to the endusers

Hi
How can the end user see the reports that are created in the BW from the store?
Regards
Annie

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
Actually our server is located in headoffice and there are about 150 stores located across the countries. So if the users wants to see the reports in BI, They should connect to the BI server from there store to see the reports.
One option is to install bex analyzer in all the systems in all the stores and see the reports if the server is connected
second option is to have the enterprise portal.
What if they dont have enterprise portal and wants to the report in web? do we have anyother option?

How to add a sub report at the end of the main report whilst grouped

Hi!
I have a main report that is grouped by the Customers name and then details of transactions they did with the company.
I need to add a letter at the end of each group for each customer (With their name displayed in the letter). I tried adding a sub report in the report footer, but it only appears once at the end of the report, rather than at the end of each group for each customer.
How can I achieve the desired result?
Regards
Vik

Vik,
You are on the right track with the sub-report.
1. Create your letter in a separate report.
2. Add the Letter Report to your original report as a sub report in the group footer.
3. Set the report links on the "Group By" field.
This will give you a letter record for each report record with the same grouping as the main report.
Hope this helps,
Jason

Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

Hi,
Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
*"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
*"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.

Get a Report crashed error while running report using the mode character

Hello,
I'am getting an "Enable to run report - Report as crashde" issue only when I'am running reports using the mode character. The same report with desformat pdf never has any problems. I have changed the englife (set to one) increase the cachesize but I still have the same issue.
I'm using report 6i and Oracle 8i.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Laurent.

Hi Thanks for the response,
In fact the report in character mode is working fine in my environnement but is not working on my customer environnement (which is supposed to be the same as mine). I was thinking of cache size issue or something like this ?

Hello Chinasammy,
Report Painter allows you to create reports using data from SAP application components, which you can adapt to meet your individual requirements.
Many of your reporting requirements can already be met by using the standard reports provided by various SAP application components. If these SAP standard reports do not meet your reporting needs, Report Painter enables you to define your specific reports quickly and easily.
When executing a Report Painter report, it is displayed by the system in Report Writer format. You thus have access to the same functions as for Report Writer reports defined in the same way, and can combine Report Painter and Report Writer reports together in a report group.
Report Painter uses a graphical report structure, which forms the basis for your report definition and displays the rows and columns as they appear in the final report output.
To facilitate report definition, you can use many of the standard reporting objects provided by SAP (such as libraries, row/column models, and standard layouts) in your own specific reports. When you define a Report Painter report you can use groups (sets). You can also enter characteristic values directly.
Advantages of Report Painter include:
Flexible and simple report definition
Report definition without using sets
Direct layout control: The rows and columns are displayed in the report definition as they appear in the final report output, making test runs unnecessary.
=============================================
Below mentioned is the process for creating reports using Report Painter as a tool.
Selecting and maintaining a library for your report: As the transfer structure to Report Painter you use a report table, which is defaulted by SAP and can not be maintained. This table contains characteristics, key figures and predefined columns. In a library, you collect the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns from the report table, which you need for your Report Painter reports.
When you define a Report Painter report, you assign it to a library. Reports assigned to one library can only use the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for that library.
When you create or maintain a library, the Position field determines the sequence in which the characteristics, key figures or (predefined) key figures appear in the Report Painter selection lists when you define a report. This allows you to position the objects that you use regularly in your reports at the beginning of the selection lists. If you do not make an entry in the Position field, you will not be able to use this object in Report Painter reports.
You can use either the standard SAP libraries for your reports or define your own.
(ii) Selecting or maintaining a standard layout for your report: Standard layouts determine report layout features and the format of your report data.If the SAP standard layouts do not meet your reporting requirements, you can create a new standard layout or change an existing one.
(iii) Defining row and column models: A model is a one-dimensional, predefined reporting structure that you can insert in either the rows or columns of your report.If you often use the same or similar row or column definitions in your reports, it is recommended that you create row or column models.
You must define the row and/or column models that you want to include in your report definition before you define the report.
You can also use the standard column models supplied by SAP.
(iv) Defining the report: Defining a Report Painter report involves the following steps.
(a) Define the report columns: You define the report columns using the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for the library that the report uses. Alternatively, you can use a column model for column definition. Column models are predefined column structures which you insert into your entire column definition, instead of defining each individual column.
(b) Define the report rows: You define the report rows using the characteristics selected for the library selected for the report.
Alternatively, you can use a row model for your row definition. Row models serve the same purpose as column models, but are used to define a report row.
Edit and format the report rows and columns in line with your requirements. (For example, you can hide rows or columns, define the column width or define colors for your report rows).
(iii)Define general data selection criteria for the selection of your report data: Selection criteria are the characteristics used to select data for the entire report. You cannot enter characteristics as data selection criteria if they are already being used in the report rows or columns.
(iv) Assigning the report to a report group: Once you have defined a report, you must assign it to a report group. A report group can contain one or more reports from the same library. However, reports that share the same data will select data more quickly and improve processing time.
Hopw this helps you. Please let me know if you need anything more and assign points.

I need the Log Report for the Data which i am uploading from SAP R/3.

Hi All,
I am BI 7.0 Platform with Support Patch 20.
I need the Log Report for the Data which i am uploading from SAP R/3.
I extract the DATA from R/3 into BI 7.0 DSO where I am mapping the GL Accounts with the FS Item. In the Transformation i have return a routine on the FS Item InfObject . I am checking the Gl code into Z table for the FS Item .
I capture the FS item from the Z table then update this FS item to Infobject FS item.
Now i need to stop the Data upload if i do not find the GL code in the Z table, and generate report for all GL code for which the FS item is not maintained in the Z table.
Please suggest.
Regards
nilesh

Hi.
Add a field that you will use to identify if the GL account of the record was found in the Z table or not. Fx, create ZFOUND with length 1 and no text.
In your routine, when you do the lookup, populate ZFOUND with X when you found a match (sy-subrc = 0) and leave it blank if you don't find a match. Now create a report filtering on ZFOUND = <blank> and output the GL accounts. Those will be the ones not existing in the Z table, but coming in from your transactions.

Two commands in the report using the same parameter - fail under Java

I have a report that contains 2 SQL commands.
Both of these commands use one parameter X of type Number in their 'WHERE' clause.
When i'm viewing the report in CR 2008, i'm asked for a value of this parameter and all data is filled in the report - OK
The problem occurs when the same report is printed through Crystal Java Runtime:
Report is printed without data! - it's empty.
What we noticed in the debug information thrown by the Crystal libraries is that parameter value is set only in one of these commands:
Original statement 1:
select a.something
from ANM_T a
where a.anmid = {?PARAMETER01Id}
Original statement 2:
SELECT * from ANM_T a
WHERE a.anmid={?PARAMETER01Id}
OUTCOME of Statement 1:
select a.something
from ANM_T a
where a.anmid = 0
OUTCOME of Statement 2:
SELECT * from ANM_T a
WHERE a.anmid=9825
In above example we may see that crystal set the value only in the second statement - first one got 0 - i suspect its some default value.
Parameter in the Java code is set in the right way. In case of using only one statement it works. If we use two separate parameters (whose values are equal ) it also works.
// we have also the loop over the parameters
ParameterFieldController paramFieldController =
 report.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
paramFieldController.setCurrentValue( "", paramName, paramValue );
What is strange for me is that Crystal Reports enables to use the same parameter in two commands but if you edit one of them you may change the type of this parameter for a command ( for example from Number to String) but the parameter type in the second command remains unchanged ( it's strange because in my opinion it is the same parameter). In the Field Explorer under the Parameter Fields i still see one parameter of type used in the second command.

Hello all,
We have prepared some sample code to illustrate the issue.
We have modified the sample application (Link: [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/c07fec3e-3e11-2c10-1991-8c0fb0b82b75]) to that it also changes the parameter value. Parameter is used in two commands saved in report.
The code changing the parameters value looks like this:
private static void changeParameters(ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc) throws ReportSDKException {
 DataDefController dataDefController = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController();
 Fields fields = dataDefController.getDataDefinition().getParameterFields();
 for( int i = 0; i < fields.size(); i++ ){
 Field field = (Field)fields.getField( i );
 if( field.getKind() == FieldKind.parameterField ){
 setParameter( ((ParameterField)field).getName(), "9825" , reportClientDoc);
private static void setParameter( String paramName, String paramValue, ReportClientDocument document ) throws ReportSDKException {
 ParameterFieldController paramFieldController =
 document.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
 paramFieldController.setCurrentValue( "", paramName, paramValue );
We have tried the following codes to change the connection info used in commands:
Attempt 1
 Tables tables = databaseController.getDatabase().getTables();
 //Set the datasource for all main report tables.
 for (int i = 0; i < tables.size(); i++) {
 ITable table = tables.getTable(i);
 //Keep existing name and alias.
 table.setName(table.getName());
 table.setAlias(table.getAlias());
 //Change connection information properties.
 IConnectionInfo connectionInfo = table.getConnectionInfo();
 //Set new table connection property attributes.
 connectionInfo.setAttributes(propertyBag);
 //Set database username and password.
 //NOTE: Even if these the username and password properties don't change when switching databases, the
 //database password is *not* saved in the report and must be set at runtime if the database is secured.
 connectionInfo.setUserName(DBUSERNAME);
 connectionInfo.setPassword(DBPASSWORD);
 connectionInfo.setKind(ConnectionInfoKind.SQL);
 table.setConnectionInfo(connectionInfo);
 //Update old table in the report with the new table.
 databaseController.setTableLocation(table, tables.getTable(i));
 //databaseController.setTableLocation(tables.getTable(i), table);
Attempt 2
 newConnectionInfo.setAttributes(propertyBag);
 connectionInfo.setUserName(DBUSERNAME);
 connectionInfo.setPassword(DBPASSWORD);
 //preserve subreport links
 SubreportController src = doc.getSubreportController();
 Map<String, SubreportLinks> linkMapper = new HashMap<String,SubreportLinks>();
 for(String subreportName : src.getSubreportNames()){
 linkMapper.put(subreportName,
 (SubreportLinks) src.getSubreportLinks(subreportName).clone(true));
 //If this connection needed parameters, we would use this field.
 Fields<IParameterField> pFields = doc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getParameterFields();
 replaceConnectionInfos(doc.getDatabaseController(), newConnectionInfo, pFields);
 IStrings strs = src.getSubreportNames();
 Iterator<String> it = strs.iterator();
 while (it.hasNext()) {
 String name = it.next();
 ISubreportClientDocument subreport = src.getSubreport(name);
 pFields = subreport.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getParameterFields();
 replaceConnectionInfos(subreport.getDatabaseController(), newConnectionInfo, pFields);
 //reconnect subreport links since when using replaceConnection links are erased
 for(String subreportName : src.getSubreportNames())
 src.setSubreportLinks(subreportName, linkMapper.get(subreportName));
private static void replaceConnectionInfos(DatabaseController aDc, IConnectionInfo aNewConnInfo, Fields<IParameterField> aParameterField) throws ReportSDKException {
 ConnectionInfos cis = aDc.getConnectionInfos(null);
 for (IConnectionInfo oldConnInfo : cis)
 aDc.replaceConnection(oldConnInfo, aNewConnInfo, aParameterField, DBOptions._useDefault
 + DBOptions._doNotVerifyDB);
In both cases, the observed problem occurred. In one query the parameter was set properly, while on the other it was set to 0 (or empty string in case of string parameters). What is more, no data appeared on the print.
Do you happen to know the reason of this issue?How can we fix the problem?
Best regards

Hi,
Before this you have to prepare your internal table with tab delimeter structure with data.
data: wa_appl_title like line of appl_title.
       concatenate fhdr '/file_details_'
                    sy-datum '_' sy-uzeit '.txt' into fhdr.
*MOD01 - start.
       open dataset fhdr for output in text mode." ENCODING DEFAULT.
        open dataset fhdr for output in text mode ENCODING DEFAULT.
*MOD01 - end.
        if sy-subrc = 0.
          clear wa_appl_title.
          read table appl_title into wa_appl_title index 1.
          if sy-subrc = 0.
            transfer wa_appl_title to fhdr.
          endif.
          loop at appl_it.
            transfer appl_it to fhdr.
          endloop.
          close dataset fhdr.
          write: / text-t05.
        else.
          write: / text-t04.
        endif.
After this you view in AL11 tranx.
let us know any thing else you need.

Facing problem while creating a report on the value of a UDM in oem gc

Hi,
I have created a report in OEM grid control. I have selected a host for this. And I have selected an UDM from the metric list. The report works fine shows the correct graph in the report.
The problem is that along with the value from the respective udm , I am also getting the values from other metrics.
Between, I also noticed that the metric I selected is not highlighted when visited next time to the report edit page. I guess this could be the cause but dont know how to fix it. May be I am wrong, If any other issues or suggestions to my problem , Please Advise.
Thanks in advance.

It is 10.2.0.5. I guess it is a bug but where to check for confirmation.
Thanks.

I need to add a new custom report to the PSPRCSRQSTDLG page - How ?

We are moving to FIS 9.0 from 8.4 and I am retrofitting a report. The report in 8.4 is called from the Process Request page and I can't see how to get a custom report to display in this page.
has anyone done this before?
Thanks,
Allen
DBA -Sonoma State University

The PRCSRQSTDLG page is the "2nd page" (so to speak) of a run control componet/page which is called when the "Run" button is pressed.
All you need to do is to create a new process definition for your custom report. On the 2nd tab of the process definition enter the component for the run control page from which the report is to run. Save. When you navigate to the run control page and press "Run" your custom report will now appear on the PSPRCSRQSTDLG page.

How to take a report for the assigned transaction and activity in a role

Hi Colleagues,
I want to take a report for the assigned transaction with activity for all roles, which are assigned to the users,
Transaction list for a role i can able to take it from SUIM but not able to take the ACTVT for the role.
Please suggest how to take this information.
BR,
Jai

Hi Jaikumar from the post :
I think you have reached the state of finding the USER to ROLE relationship
Take the output to an excel,
COPY just the roles column exactly in order do not rearrange , use AGR_1251 like other experts have mentioned
insert the roles copied from you buffer and execute, the output will have multiple entries for each role take the output to an EXCEL again , make it unique and match the outputs between both the EXCELS.
It will be a little tricky to do this, but I think you are proficient in MS EXCEL.
This is one of the ways to do , there are many other ways to do it.

Can I report on the AGE of open Work Items? How? Group into Buckets?

Is there a way to report on the age of open work items?
Perhaps a bar graph that has several buckets.
a. Over 364
b. 180 to 364
c. 90 to 179
d. 1 to 89
And then a COUNT in each bucket.
For example, if a Work Item is open longer than 364 day, it would appear in bucket "a" as a count of 1. Say there are a total of 45 Work Items that were opened older than 364 days, then "45" would appear in column "a" now say that there are 100 work items open that are 1 to 89 days old, then 100 would appear in the "d" bucket.
Make sense? How can I report like this?

Hi mrpeepers,
You can use following MDX script when you create this report that uses TfsOlapReportDS
with
member [Measures].[Age]
As
IIF([Measures].[Current Work Item Count]>0,DateDiff("d",cdate([System_CreatedDate].[Date].CurrentMember .name),Now()),null)
member [Measures].[AgeRange]
as
case
when [Measures].[Age] >70 then 70
when [Measures].[Age] >60 then 60
when [Measures].[Age] >50 then 50
when [Measures].[Age] >40 then 40
when [Measures].[Age] >30 then 30
when [Measures].[Age] >20 then 20
when [Measures].[Age] >10 then 10
when [Measures].[Age] >0 then 0
when [Measures].[Age] <0 then -1
else null
end
SELECT
non empty
{[Measures].[Current Work Item Count],[Measures].[Age] ,[Measures].[AgeRange]}
ON COLUMNS,
[System_CreatedDate].[Date].[Date].AllMembers on Rows
FROM [Current Work Item]
And then, drop a Chart to report designer, select “Current_Work_Item_Count” as datafield, AgeRange as category field.

i would appreciate if you can send an earliest reply and reward points for the same.
if any queries just reply me i can clarify.
Regards
Prabhu

Hi Prabhakar,
Well you can opt for ALV display...
You want to generate report based on plant data..
Once the user enters the plant, you can extract the remaining info from table MARA, QALS, EKKO.
The radio buttons will decide your selection critera.
I dont think any functional guy will give you everthing spoon feeded. You will have to explore those tables and the relevant fields.
In case you are finding it to difficult to get the relations between the tables or finding list of tables,
i shall send u docs which will help u solve the problem.
Give me ur email id

Tanveer.
