BIP report published in website

Hello,
After a BIP report has been generated, how can we make it available through a link?
Scenario: A notification email will be sent to non-BIP users that their requested report is now available and downloadable in this link : "http:/........com"
Thank you,
Felicity

you can schedule the report and burst the output . (save it in FTP/local file location)
the link which you give has to refer same location where the webserver can access it .

BIP report security from Dashboard to Publisher is not working

Hi ,
I created a BIP report(.xdo) and placed it on Dashboard as a link . As admin , I can see the report . As a user , I am able to get into publisher but not able to see the report . Iam getting the below error message .
Error : Unauthorized Access: please contact the administrator.
I suspect that security model from Dashboard through BIP is not working . I tried searching the online resources but couldnt find right help .
Iam a newbie for BIP , I followed the regular BIP guides , configured eveything as per the docs and things work as admin . But I want to test the security as user .
Where Iam doing wrong , Any ideas please help .
Thanks

Hello Vijay ,
I have grant permissions to the user and the report in BI webcatalog and also in BIP under admin tab I have addes the role which the user belongs to and also the shared folder . Still the problem exists.
My BI presentation servcies security is working . My user security is also working , all that I need is the user should be able to see the report when he clicks on BIP link placed in dashboard.

Adobe Muse keeps crashing every time I publish any website all of a sudden

Adobe Muse keeps crashing every time I publish any website all of a sudden. Not just for the website I was working on but now all my websites. It was working perfectly fine and when I hit publish it just crashes. I have multiple copies and different websites and they are all crashing when I try to publish. It seems like it is not an error for just the one website I was working on but the entire program is not functioning correctly. Here's a screen shot of the error.

Mac or Windows? What's the error that appears? If it's an Apple Crash Report, please copy/paste the first few pages of it here.
I strongly recommend against it (for multiple reasons below) but if you uninstall Muse, then go to the Creative Cloud Desktop App, and choose "Previous Version" in the Find New Apps section there will be a dropdown arrow next to the Install button. That dropdown will list all versions of Muse.
If you've saved over top your existing file using the current version, reverting Muse won't work, since older versions cannot open files saved from newer versions. If you've don't significant work in the current version, that will be lost because you'll have to go back to the file as last saved using the prior version of Muse. Finally, there's a significant probability that error/crash is related to content in the file, network configuration, or other outside forces and if that's the case reverting won't avoid the error/crash.
If you share more info about what error you're encountering, I expect we can determine a workaround/solution.

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.

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).

Passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard to BIP report

It is possibile passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard prompt to BI Publisher integrated report? (BIP report has a DB data source (not a answers))
Thank you
R.

Hi Rajkm,
In order to pass a multi-value parameter through the Reporting Services Web services, you need to define the same numbers of ParameterValue objects as the number of the values of the multi-value parameter being past into the report. The Name property
of these ParameterValue objects must be specified same to the parameter name.
I found a good FAQ article for this scenario:
How do I pass a multi-value parameter into a report with Reporting Services Web service API?:

Exporting BIP report to an specific internal server folder

Hi Gurus,
       I am novice in BI Publisher and I'd like to know if the following feature is possible at BIP :
       Is it possible to generate an output BIP report in a specific internal folder on my OBIEE server ? I mean...Instead of the user save the BIP report in your desktop, it would be saved (in background) in a specific folder in the application server (Eg.; /reports) ?
       I have OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1 in a Linux box withe Oracle DB 11g.
Thanks in advance
regards...

Hi,
What websphere application are you using? Can you provide some background on how this one works?
Thanks.

View BIP report with parameter in Dashboard, but the parameter not appear

OBIEE 10.3.4.1 on Redhat 5.2.
I have a BIP report with 3 parameters which work fine in BIP. Now I embedded it in BI Dashboard, but not see the parameter menu when view in Dashboard. Is this the feature, or I missed something.
Thanks.

On the BI publisher Report Properties window, for Display Mode, select 'Link'. Then you should see the Report Object appear as a link, save and on the dashboard page when you click that link, the BI publisher report will show with the parameters..
Thanks,
Bipuser

HTML tags in BIP Report

Hi,
I have a BI Report which is based on OBIEE analysis report.
There is one column which contains HTML Data as stored in the database.
This column contains data with "<p>" tags
In the OBIEE analysis, I have converted the data format of this column to 'HTML' and the OBIEE report shows only the text i.e'test data' in this case.
But the BIP report still shows the data in the way the data is stored in the database.
Is there a way in BI Publisher where the data will be changed to normal text rather than HTML?

Hi Avinash,
I tried thesame thing. I am able to see html data n CSV format, and data in xml format
when I select other than these two fotrmats, it is givng error.
Error: The report cannot be rendered because of an error, please contact the administrator.
Thanks.

Hello,
I need to add a date parameter in my BIP report. I have used a date parameter on a BIP report that has a for-each grouping, but my BIP report RTF template that was converted from Actuate do not have a for-each grouping and I was getting an error when I validate the RTF template. Can someone please help?
Thank you

can u send me template and xml . i will try at my side. email: [email protected]
Some times converted templates won't work straight away. you still need to do manual adjustments to make it work based one the requirement u have.
