BIP report issues

We are currently upgrading from Siebel 7.5 to 8.1 and are working on converting some of our Actuate Reports into BI Publisher.
I am trying to create an Integration Object to use with a BI Publisher Report that will display Activities of Type = Call & Status = Done for selected sites under Site Management -> Activities. FYI... this "Call" Activity Type is not a vanilla LOV. It has a type of TODO_TYPE with a parent of General in case you need to create it for any testing that you might do.
I have used the wizard to create the integration object with the Main BC as Clinical Protocol Site and a container BC of Action (No Owner Lock) and a container under that of Action (No Owner Lock)_Employee. I then inactivated all fields and just re-activated the ones I wanted to display in my report. I then used the synchronize button to activate any other required fields. I then Deployed to Runtime and compiled.
Issue #1: When I generated the Sample XML, the fields were displayed in some containers and not others. I would expect the containers and fields to be displayed in the Sample XML even if they do not contain any data. Also, there looks like there is one extra Action (No Owner Lock) container surrounding the other Action (No Owner Lock) containers. I noticed that if I removed the Value from the XML Container Element for this Integration Component, the extra one was removed from the sample XML.
In my local database, I created a new report, associated it to the Integration Object, attached the BI Publisher Report (RTF File), generated the XLIFF and associated it to the View (Clinical Protocol Site List View) where the report is run from...
Issue #2: When I run the report, (make sure you query for select sites before running) it only shows new call Activities that I have created. It doesn't show previously created call activities. Could it only be showing the activities created by me? It should be displaying all call activities no matter who created them. Also, it shows 2 of some of the call activities in the report. Again, I noticed that if I removed the Value from the XML Container Element for the Action (No Owner Lock) Integration Component, the duplicates were removed from the report. The report also ran quicker.
Issue #3: For the call Activities that are displayed, it does not display the Contact Last Name & First Name values which are fields in the Action (No Owner Lock)_Employee Integration Component.
Issue #4: Currently we are using logic in the BI Publisher report to only show "Call" Activities. Is there a way on the Integration Object side to only populate the XML file with these types of activities instead of having the XML file created with all site activities (which could be a lot)?
I have attached a SIF of the "BIP PRA Site Phone Log Report" Integration Object, the Sample XML created by Siebel, my BI Published RTF Report, and sample XML I created from the Siebel generated XML to test my report. I have also included a SIF of the LS Clinical Projects which includes the BC's contained in the Integration Objects.
Additional Request: I see that all the vanilla report templates have in their footer "Generated by <?Login?>" We would like to do the same. How do you get the Logged in user value into the XML so that it can be displayed in the report?
I would appreciate any assistance you could provide.

I am running into the same issue. Has anyone successfully done this? Also, is this even intended functionality?

BIP report Output has issue due to & in the data

Hi All,
we have created a BIP report in R12.some columns have '&' in the value. Because of this ,the concurrent program is ending with warning.
Please give me some ideas to rectify this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
P.Kalidoss

one way is to replace '&' to '%amp;' in data
another way is to escape data by utl_i18n (prefer for me)
so
SQL> with t as
2   (select 'some &text' some_text from dual)
3 select replace(some_text, '&', '&'),
4         utl_i18n.escape_reference(some_text)
5    from t
6 /
REPLACE(SOME_TEXT,'&','&AMP;') UTL_I18N.ESCAPE_REFERENCE(SOME
some &text                 some &text
SQL>

Issue in BIP Report Generation - Issue gets fixed when the rtf is opened and re-saved

Hi,
We are facing a unique case in BIP reports generation at a Customer site. The BIP installed is a part of the OBIEE 11g installation. The customer report generates most of the times, however there are instances where we get a techinical details error ( custom error ) - The only way to 'fix' this issue currently is to open the rtf file, hit the spacebar and save this file ( ie re-save this file ) and the report starts to generate correctly again for
Has anyone else faced such a problem ?
Also, not sure if this helps - the corresponding xdo has nested tags
Thanks in Advance

Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

BIP Report in Siebel mobile is not working in languages other than English

Hi,
We have upgraded our Siebel from 7.8 to Siebel 8.1 and in that we have moved from Actuate to BIP Reports. We have created a customized report in which we have put in the Filters on '.rtf' file to show a particular set of data. This report is deployed for 3 languages : English (ENU), Portuguese (PTB) and Spanish (ESN).After deploying this report, on Web application, it is working fine for all the languages but we are facing an issue on mobile client, the report is only working fine in ENU but for other languages(PTB & ESN) it is failing (means the filter which we put on '.rtf' is not working on other languages).
Is anybody face this issue and what will be the solution for this?

Hi
I think you need to first translate the smartform into other languages. Before translation, it wont work.
Steps for translation:
1. goto Transaction SE63
2. in R3 Enterprise select form menu
Translation - ABAP Objects - Other long texts
3. select FS - SSF-Smart Form
4. Object Name: choose your smart form
5. select target language
6. press edit

Is it posible to compare 2 variales in single if statement in BIP report?

Hi,
I want to know following things reg BI Publisher-
1. Is it possible to compare 2 variables in single if statement in BI Publisher report as follows-
<?if: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'RVal1') = xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'RVal2')?>
2. Is it possible to compare 1 variable with 1 xml tag in single if statement in BI Publisher report?
eg - <?if: ObjId = xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'RVal2')?>
We are having 2groups QuoteItem and QuoteItemXA. QuoteItem is a parent group and QuoteItemXA is a child group of QuoteItem. We want to compare value of field QuoteItemId from QuoteItem group with value of field ObjId from QuoteItemXA group in inner for loop(QuoteItemXA for loop).
We want to display values of one field only when values of these two fields matches. Hence we are taking 1 variable for QuoteItemId and comparing it as follows -
<?if: ObjId = xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'RVal2')?>
The RVal2 variable is already initialized and assigned value of QuoteItemId in outer for loop.
But above for loop is not filtering out any data.
When we tried giving hardcoded values as -
<?if: ObjId = '1-151QGPO' and xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'RVal2') = '1-151QGPO'?> then its showing report only for this QuoteItemId.
Please suggest us the solution- how to compare above two fields?
Regards,
Rakesh

hello Rakesh,
Were you able to fix this issue ?
We have a BIP report on the Quote , Line Item and XA entities and we have the same issue with duplication of attributes due to use of Hierarchy parent lKey. I am assuming you would be having the same issue as well; as a result of which XA.ObjId is compared with QLineItem.Id

Unrelated data in master detail sections of a custom BIP report deployed in R12 EBS

We have a custom Master Detail BIP report generated by calling XDO APIs from a custom Java concurrent program (common_report_attachment) . This Java concurrent program is called from another custom concurrent program (po_validation) that processes a batch of POs in a single concurrent request.
PO_Validation Program (processes a batch of POs per request) -> Java Concurrent Program -> BI Publisher Report APIs
BIP report generates data for master detail sections based on two sql queries (given below) that have 'where' clause based on a common external parameter "P_TRX_HDR_ID".
NOTE: No explicit data link is used NOR an output column of parent query is used in the where clause of detail query as bind parameter.

Issue: Sometimes when the parent concurrent request runs for a batch with multiple POs the report generated for the last PO has inconsistent data in the master and detail sections. To elaborate, the detail section is having correct data pertaining to the PO identified by the parameter "P_TRX_HDR_ID". However, the master section is having data pertaining to the previous PO processed from the same batch.
This issue is not occurring consistently and is not reproducible at will. I
'm suspecting this could be because of not having data link between the queries but confirm from someone who has experienced this issue.
Regards,
Srinath

is there any way from the page, can we pass the some values, which can identify the page level data?
if so pass the parameter to BIP report query.

Error while running BIP report, in one of our ST environments

we are getting this exception while running one of our BIP report(RTF template).
the same code is working in the other ST environments
NOTE: we observed some special cases
if the report contain any Graph(chart) then this error is coming,
with the plain report (means only text), we observe it working fine.
could any one help, for debugging this issue
we found this log in EM console.

BIP Report is not opening in Siebel

Hi All,
We're having an issue with opening the BIP report except for the html format.
After selecting i.e. the format pdf and click 'Submit' it takes a few seconds then the pop-up window appears where we can 'Open' or 'Save' the file.
If I click Open the process iexplorer.exe goes up to 50% and stays there.
If I click Save, it states in the task bar 'Start downloading from site...' and then it just stays in that state. The pdf file in question is only 2,72KB.
We have tried all other formats and html is the only format that works.
If the report is run on the server is seems to work as it should.
Any help appreciated!
Regards,
Hakan

Hi,
Yes, this is fixed.
The root cause was a security patch from Microsoft.
The solution:
- Remove Microsoft Patch KB974455.
or
- uncheck the ‘Use HTTP 1.1’ flag under Internet Options > Advanced tab.

Hakan

Parametrized BIP report integration on OBIEE 11g dashboard

HI Experts,
I have created BIP Report using SQL as source for my Dataset in Datamodel.Also, the report is parametrized with date value.
SELECT * FORM EMP
WHERE DEPT_NO=:DEPT_NO
AND HIRE_DATE<=:FROMDATE
AND HIRE_DATE>=:TODATE
DEPTNO : List of value (Select DEPTNO from DEPARTMENTS) and the Parameter is created as Menu type
FROMDATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type
TODATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type.
The Report is working fine in BI Publisher portal.. Now I want to integrate this report onto the dashboard. For, that I have created 3 dashboard prompts (column prompts) and set the values to presentation variables DEPT_NO and FROMDATE and TODATE respectively...
Now when I run my dashboard after choosing all the prompts the report is not getting generated. Instead, it is throwing below error.
oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.
I don't have an idea what is causing this issue and i verified LOG Viewer form Enterprise manager.. But, no use.. I couldn't figure out the issue..
Can any body help me how to resolve this issue..
Regards
Ramarao

Hi Ramarao,
There's many possible reasons why you're getting the error 'oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException'. Because it's an XDO error, I'm stewing more towards your template that you're using.
I would propose the following:
print the whole error that you retrieved
Change the SQL script from * to the specific column names and ensuring that maps correctly to your template
Hope this gets the ball rolling and one step closer to resolving the issue

Daniel

If you use parameters you can try playing with them to narrow down the values on which the error occurs. Anyway, need to get the output in XML (without template) and review it. If it's not too huge, post the XML here.

Locale Settings lost on mobile client 7.8.2.14 after creation of BIP report

Hi All,
we went live with BI Publisher reports (Siebel 7.8.2.14) at the beginning of June.
Now some of our users are having trouble with their mobile web client.
For example our colleagues in Poland have their Windows XP regional settings set to "Polish". It will make Siebel use date format for all date fields (e.g. activity start date) display as YYYY-MM-DD - this works just fine until user is creating a BIP report. After successfull report creation, all locale settings in the mobile client are lost. Instead of YYYY-MM-DD, the dates are displayed in DD.MM.YYYY and creation of new records produces and error. Also, currency and number formats are mixed up.
I assume it's a bug - anyone hit this before?
Edited by: Penky on Jun 17, 2011 11:38 AM

Yes, we finally decided to do so!
The main reason was that we had a lot of new report change requests and did not want to do the work twice (now in Actuate and then again in BIP). Also we plan our 8.x upgrade for second half of 2011 so this was already some kind of preparation, so we can completely focus on the upgrade afterwards and don't need to hassle around with the reports as well.
issues we're still facing include "user's are not able to run reports after they change their position" or "List reports can only be run for few records, otherwise the search spec hit's an IO field's length limitation" or "report popup can not be suppressed although there's no useful information in it" (not to forget the one described in this thread) and some others.
Well ... after 1 1/2 years since I downloaded the first integration QF the BIP journey still does not end - it's like it just started :)

How to avoid IE pop-ups when running BIP reports(w/ SSO) from Oracle Forms?

Hi all,
We have an OID/SSO integrated Oracle Forms and BI Publisher environment in place. We/users expect the same behavior when running Oracle Reports or BIP reports from Oracle Forms... which means receiving no intermediate pop-ups and simply getting the report output to appear in the relevant target application(PDF, EXCEL, etc). Currently we get multiple security warnings when running BIP reports from Oracle Forms.
Here's a list of Pop-ups contents:
1. "File Download - Security Warning" Do you want to open or save this file? -> OPEN
2. "File Download" Do you want to save this file? Name = ma01r500.pdf -> YES
3. "Save AS" -> pick desktop and save.
4. "Download Complete" -> OPEN
We have experimented with setting various IE security settings to LOW/enabled and still get these pop-ups.
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Yahya

FYI... Metalink Note 282996.1 has resolved the bigger issue with the extra pop-ups with SSO enabled environment.
Cause:
Internet Explorer (IE) has to cache PDF files in a temporary directory prior to opening the file. Without this IE cannot process PDF files. With SSO protected pages, the header cache settings are set to no-cache which prevents IE from downloading PDF files.
Solution:
In mod_osso.conf use the entry "OssoSendCacheHeaders off" which tells mod_osso to turn off all no-cache related headers, which the enables Internet Explorer to be cache the file in a temporary directory.
Now I am not sure if anybody has any thoughts/suggestions as how we might be able to resolve this issue where Oracle Reports WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT calls have no pop-ups so ideally BIP reports WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT calls should behave the same as both are calls from Oracle Forms.
But at least now our SSO enabled environment and un-secure DEV/UAT behave the same with a single pop-up. Ideally the users shouldn't have to come across this intermediate pop-up to open(save/cancel being the other options) the document(just like Oracle Reports calls).

BIP report output in PDF and RTF generating some blank columns or � symbols

Hi Experts,
I am new to BIP. I have developed some BIP reports in 10.1.3.4.1 version which are working fine in Dev and UAT environment.
But it's generating some blank columns and some columns with proper data and some columns with"cellphone" kind of symbol in PDF and " �"
symbols in RTF in Prod environment.
In all the environments the version of BIP is same.
So any help in resolving this issue is appreciated.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
Suresh.A

All of the complex report logic is handled in your Oracle Report (rdf) file.
If your Oracle report is working OK, then this report should be generating XML.
After running your report, go to the View Requests window. Highlight your request, and click the Diagnostics button. Then click the 'View XML' button. If you see XML data, then you should be OK.
When I faced a similar issue, it was because the '1 step' process didnt work for the particular report I was using. The '1 step' process doesn't work for every report. Which report are you using?
If the report is submitted via a form (not the concurrent manager request form), then you probably need to use 2 steps to produce the desired output.
For more information, see the following thread:

Printing Procurement Terms and Conditions in custom BIP report

We are developing a custom BIP report for printing Purchase Agreements. We created new Data model and a new report template that matches the customer's requirements. However, we are not able to print the Terms and conditions in this custom report.
The custom report is placed in the Shared Folders/Custom/Procurement/Purchasing folder and we included the following code at the beginning of the custom report template -
<?import: xdoxsl:///Procurement/Purchasing/prc_po_terms_and_conditions_sub.xsb?loc=${_XDOLOCALE}?>
And at the end, where we want to print the Terms and Conditions, the following code -
<xsl:apply-templates select=".//TermsAndConditions"/>
But the Terms and conditions are not printed. Can someone please help out and point to me where the mistake is?
Thanks
Lakshmi

I am not an expert on BIP and will ask a colleague to comment. Took a look at the documentation and noticed some small differences, not sure if these have any impact, but you could try them while waiting to triage the issue:
The documentation does not have space in the import statement i.e. "import:xdoxsl" while your example has a space "import: xdoxsl"
To render the content the documentation states to use "<?call-template:template_name?>"

Integration of BIP Report file bursting with Unix FTP directory(using IBot)

We have a requirement for dynamically creating the folder in FTP server, which gets the bursted file when a BIP report is executed.
We have used the following approach:
Created a IBot with Custom Java Program which creates a folder dynamically in FTP, now we are facing the problem to integrate this IBot with the BIP report file bursting.
Can anyone suggest how to overcome this issue or is there any alternative approach to achieve the above requirement.
Any help would be appreciated.
