  • Support for BIRT Report Tools

    I noted that my BIRT reports wont got embedded in Sun Web Server 6.1.
    It gives serverlet exception. They run successfully over Tomcat.
    Have anybody tried it before? What may be the alternatives?
    -Sameer

    Since you didn't give any details as to the version of BIRT you are using or the servlet exception logged in your web server instance's logs/errors file, the following may not address your problem.
    After deploying BIRT 2.1.1's WebViewerExample on Web Server 6.1, I was able to successfully access the index page of the web application(http://server/birt-viewer). However, when I clicked on the link labeled "View Example" the server returned a 500 Error page and the following exception was logged:
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory
            at org.apache.axis.components.logger.LogFactory.class$(LogFactory.java:45)
            at org.apache.axis.components.logger.LogFactory$1.run(LogFactory.java:45)
            at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)It appears that BIRT has a dependency on Apache's commons-logging classes. I downloaded commons-logging-1.1.jar from http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_commons-logging.cgi and installed it in the WebViewerExample web application (i.e. under birt-runtime-2_1_1/WebViewerExample/WEB-INF/lib). After reconfiguring/restarting my web server (reconfig/restart) I was able to successfully view the example report.
    If this isn't the same as what you are seeing, then please provide more details.

  • How to create a Desktop based reporting tool

    Regarding the Rreporting tool . Here I am mentioning the key points of my requirement,
    As a first step the user creates the table linking and Alias naming.
    Need a GUI kind of reporting tool, Where the user can drag and drop the tables, In that he can build the relations among the tables (if any exists).. User should be given a provision to make alias names for tables and columns. Then saves his report
    In the second step user can check his saved report and select the columns . Based on the selected columns a query should be populated automatically with all the selected columns and where clauses based on the links/joins with the user given alias names (if any). Based on this the report should be generated..
    I know there are many reporting calls like BIRT,Pentao. But the thing is when I am working or developing on these tools its design is fixed and file gets generated. which can viewed in that editor only.. (like .reportdesign, .report, .rptcustom)
    Here please tell me which tool to use and how to start with.
    Here the tool can be a desktop application or a war file. (This complete thing should be a GUI based)
    --> It should connect to a database and show the list of tables ( or set of tables which are already stored in DB)
    --> based on table selection we should display columns of that table
    --> if multiple tables are there we should show relations between tables ( if any exists)
    ( the relations will be already stored in back-end tables, just we need to check any relation exist or not)
    --> User should be a given a option to provide alias naming for tables and columns
    --> User should save the complete set as a report (with alias names also if any provided by user)
    --> when once we save the report we should provide a option to run the report and display the result.

    What have you coded so far?
    If you are looking for someone to do it for you, then be aware: this is not a do my project for me service, but many of the people on here do consulting at 100+ USD per hour. Check one of your local services and I'm sure you can find a local deveoper to do your project for you.

  • SSRS vs BIRT Report

    Hi,
    Can any one let me know what is the difference between BIRT and SSRS interms of technical features. what all features avialble for creating the Dashboard which is not available in BIRT.
    Thanks
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant,
    I know little about Business Intelligence Reporting Tools (BIRT), but I would like to give you a brief introduce about SQL Server Reporting Services:
    SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) provides a full range of ready-to-use tools and services to help us create, deploy, and manage reports for our organization, as well as programming features that enable us to extend and customize our reporting functionality.
    One of the principal advantages of using Reporting Services is the ability to manage reports and related items such as folders, data source connections, and resources, from a central location. We can define security, set properties, and schedule operations.
    We can also create shared schedules and shared data sources and make them available for general use.
    For more information about SQL Server Reporting Services, please refer to the articles below:

  • What is the best reporting tool for my web application?

    Hi guys,
    I'm using ADF 11g with EJB 3.0 im my web application. My application is deployed on weblogic server 11g, I want to use a reporting tool in my application that is dynamic and flexible.
    Note: I've tried to use JasperReports but it didn't fulfill my needs.
    Thanks in advance.
    AccadSoft

    There are plenty of them. Oracle has one called BI Publisher, and there are others out there as well, such as BIRT, Business Objects, etc, etc, etc.
    "it didn't fulfil my needs" doesn't give anyone any possibility to comment, because you didn't tell us why, or what was lacking.

  • Compare reporting tools

    Hi,
    Could some one point in the right direction - we are trying to finalize the reporting tool.
    We have worked with BI-Publisher(not as dynamic) and Discoverer(formatting a big issue) - trying to find a tool that would overcome the limitations that these 2 tools have.
    We want to be able to use Oracle Db, VPD, set client_id using OPD.Net, integrate with web application as key requirements. By same token would like to be able to create dynamic reports which allows a great deal of flexibility. Is there such a reporting tool?
    Any ideas much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    I'll try and answer your questions.
    1. Xml, Sql(either a view or stored proc) as input
    data sourceYou can base an Apex report on a view or mod/plsql procedure, or use xmldb.
    2. support odp.net providerAs I understand it odp.net is a tool used by .net to access Oracle. Apex is a database tool so all the data and code, everything is in the database.
    3. Work with VPD - virtual private database Yes.
    4. single-sign-on, and setting client_identifier on
    connection.Yes
    5. Integrate with existing web application(asp.net
    2.0)Not sure what integration you want.
    6. This tool is free right, to be used with Oracle
    10g database.Free and can be used with 10g or 9i databases.

  • Reporting Tools

    I'm relatively new to BW...I've been supporting it internally for our company for the last year+, but I come from a .NET background.  My questions are in regards to the reporting tools that people use at different implementations.  We use the BEx Analyzer with BW 3.5, but have been relatively disappointed with the user interface and the performance of the queries.  We'll be upgrading to Netweaver BI after the first of the year.
    1.  What other reporting tools (3rd party, web tools, etc.) have people used and how have they performed with BW/BI?
    2.  How much of an improvement, either in performance or the user interface, is there with the upgrade to BI?
    I appreciate any help.
    Thanks,
    Tony

    1. There are few third party reporting tools you can integrate with BW data like Business Object, Cognos Reporting sofware, Hyperion etc. All are pretty good.
    2. If you are upgrading to BI 7.0, there are lots of new features added to BW/BI reporting tools and one new tool added is Report Designer.
    If you are really upgrading to BI 7.0, I don't think you need any third party tools but again it depends on totally what tool you are comfortable with.

  • Reporting tools and SAP BW

    Dear Sirs,
    We have Business Objects BI 4.0 and SAP BW 7.3.
    Actually we are using Web Intelligence and BEx Query to reporting.
    We have not Business Layer (Universe) between BW and BO because BO it's not supported to create universe (unx) on BW. So we create document in WEBI using BEx Query.
    We want to use Xcelsius (Dashboard Design) 2011 and I was thinking that we can use query from universe to connect with BW (new functionality in version 2011). Can we? Or maybe we should to connect to BW using "Connecttion to SAP BW"?
    We want to use Explorer (on iPad and iPhone), but Explorer requires universe (unx).
    Is not possible to create universe (unx, because unv is not supported via Explorer) based on SAP BW, is it true?
    We should we do, when we want to use Explorer with SAP BW?
    Do I understand connection between reporting tools and SAP BW:
    Crystal Reports - can I use cubes or BEx queries
    Xcelsius - using "Connection to SAP BW"
    WEBI - BExqueries or universe (but only UNV - old version).
    Explorer - in my opinion is not possible
    Analysis for OLAP - drirect to cube in SAP BW
    Could you please comment.

    Hi
    With the current version of the BI 4.0 SP2 BI Platform, one cannot create a universe (.UNX format) against BW using the OLAP connection. However you can create a universe (.UNX format) using the Relational connection (see OSS note: 1656905 - How to create UNX universe based on Business Warehourse InfoCubes). One limitation is the use of hierarchies with the relational connection.
    Then you can create the Information spaces based on the universe (.UNX format) that the Explorer can use.
    BO Reporting tools:
    1. Crystal Reports for Enterprise = you can use the OLAP connection (BICS) directly against the BW InfoCubes or Queries, if queries already exist in the BW system then you can leverage these directly (less time spent recreating the entire query in Crystal)
    2. Xcelsius = you can use the BICS or Web Service or Universe to access the data
    3. Web Intelligence = you can use the OLAP Connection (BICS)
    4. Explorer = you can use a universe (.UNX format) via a Relational Connection
    5. Analysis for OLAP = you can use the OLAP connection (BICS) to either a query or InfoCube.
    It is hoped that in Feature Pack 3 which will be released later this year, that missing functionalities will be delivered for BI 4.0.

  • BW (BEx) and BOBJ Reporting-Tools

    Hi All,
    I'm looking for an article or anything, that describes the difference between SAP BW (BEx) and Business Objects- Reporting tools .
    which tools is suitable for what purpose?
    thanks
    brad

    This isn't mine - it may even be yours - but just in case anyone looks at this thread, here it is
    BO vs BEx 
    Ease of use:
    BO - Very user friendly interface, Minimal requirement for MDX code, Some queries take more time in BO analysis, when compared to BEx Analyzer
    BEx - Difficult self service reporting and analytics, Being Excel based, it needs extensive VBA or Macro programming for a great UI
    Features:
    BO - Export functionality (PDF, MSOffice etc), More chart types, Has more advanced features, Design and Preview Tab in the same page, Provides offline capabilities
    BEx - Is mostly for SAP only but With integration can access BEx query from BO, Web App Designer is effort intensive, Build and preview are separate views
    Support from SAP:
    BO - Part of SAP integration roadmap, All current and future dev. in the BI front-end is focused on the SAP BO BI solutions, Crystal Reports is now main reporting tool, replacing BEx Report Designer
    BEx - BEx is no longer the strategic direction, BEx product line will be phased out completely by 2016
    Compatibility with other data source:
    BO - Able to merge data from various sources in the same report, Can connect to any Database, very flexible in design
    BEx - Gets data from BI
    Implementation effort and ownership cost:
    BO - Longer deployment period compared to BEx, Additional server needed, May require additional components setup for BW, May need separate license for Business Objects Enterprise (BOE) platform, BO uses OLEDB for OLAP API via BEx query, may cause an overhead, BW Accelerator may be needed to improve query response time, scalability and visibility.
    BEx - Only MS office and BEx client are needed for installation, BEx is bundled with NetWeaver

  • Time taken to replicate campaigns from Eloqua into the Insight reporting tool

    I have found there seems to be a delay in the campaign metrics for active campaigns getting into the reporting tool so that I can extract them for sales follow up.  Does anyone know how long this is supposed to take?

    Hello,
    For Insight Reporting it can take up to 24 hours for metrics to show up in reporting found in Insight. For more "real time" data try clicking in the asset (ie campaign or email etc) and click on the gear-cog --> settings --> Operational Reporting. These reports show the most up to date data. The down side to this data is it is only able to show you up to the last 3 months worth of data.
    I hope this helps!

  • Why can't I print to a Zebra 2746e using the report tool kit?

    I have read on here how peoople have printed barcodes from LV by sending commands directly to a zebra printer. I am using LV8.2.1 on a windows xp computer. I am sending EPL2 messages to the printer using the report tool kit, but all I get is a couple of line feeds. If I send the commands from a command prompt by coping a test file to the printer port it prints fine. Any thoughts. I have attached my program.

    I tried your code against my printer and it works as advertised. Can you print to other printers with it?
    By the way, when assembling a string you should use the Format Into String function instead of a string concatenator with a bunch of inputs. It takes up less room and is easier to interpret when troubleshooting.

  • Using AE(htmldb 2.0)  as for reporting tool for other oracle databases.

    Maybe I was mistaken, but when I first saw the HTMLDB demo's I saw this as a slick way to build a browser based reporting tool for the masses for quasi-ad-hoc reporting on some of our larger databases that currently have limited reporting capability, and also as a possible replacement for the many MSAccess applets we have.
    I just got 2.0 installed and working on a 9i database and went through the basic tutorials, but I can't find much info on how to connect to other oracle databases.
    Are my options as follows?:
    create dblinks from the local database that houses htmldb to all the other databases?
    or
    install htmldb schemas on each database I want to access from htmldb?
    or
    I'll keep looking, but if any of you have any pointers or know of a tutorial that explains the best way to do this it would be greatly appreciated!
    tia

    As for question 1, yep, that's what I mean. Example:
    In a schema in the App Express instance, create a user called "APP1_USER", and then
    create view app1_user.people as select * from people@link_user@remotedb
    As for the next question, using the built-in insert/update/delete processes will give you
    ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column
    among other errors. Apparently version 2.1 will fix this. See Cannot Update VARCHAR column in Remote DB
    We address this problem by creating pl/sql APIs for DML, and then writing our own insert/update processes. Slows us down a little, but even with that, App Express remains a productive choice for us.
    Another weird problem: auto-row fetch (built-in to HTML DB) doesn't work over db links when you have two columns for a primary key. Many ways around this, e.g. create sequence-populated primary key, create a view with single column that concatenates primary key column values (key1|key2)
    Hope this helps!

  • SAP CRM 7.0 - Interactive reporting tool enhancing reports with new fields

    Hi Everyone,
    I am a BW Professional, currently working on evaluating the true benefits of implementing Interactive Reporting tool for our company. As I understand the Interactive reporting tool restricts us to report on individual reporting areas like Activities, Leads, Opportunties etc.
    But according to our business it is very important for us to be able to report on cross reporting areas real time i.e. activities & leads together or activties, leads & opportunties together etc.
    I learned about the enhancement work bench in interactive reporting tool where we can add SAP fields to individual reporting areas, so I thought of adding leads & opportunties to activities. This is where the fun part starts.
    Here I learned that all activty ID, Lead ID and Oppo ID are all fed from one single field from SAP CRM i.e. OBJECT_ID, which means the system is dividing this data into individual reporting areas based on type of data i.e. leads or oppor's etc. and may be based on some key like account etc. So here is a technical question, for me to add a new field to a reporting area I have to give a field name but we already have OBJECT_ID from where I am pulling activties data, so if I want to include leads also in activties then I will have to add some logic manually to get that and can't use enhancement workbench because it is for missing fields from SAP CRM whereas in my case I already have OBJECT_ID from where I am getting Activity data.
    Sorry if I am driving you guys crazy but I am just trying to think loud to make myself clear with concepts.
    Also I have seen that a reporting area in Interactive reporting tool is based on a BW query, but I am not sure why not all the fields in BW query are available for reporting in Interactive reporting tool?
    Any help or commets will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    SRV

    Hello,
    checking with the config wizard is always a good idea since it's the only supported way to configure this scenario
    The secret is that you apparently did not activate the report areas. It is a bit missleading that the queries are checked before the report areas are checked, therefore you see the errors concerning the queries first. Below those errors you should find some lines like
        Report areas: delivered 15, active <?>
        CRM interactive reports: delivered 20, active <?>
        Activation of report areas checked
    The last line offers some documentation and the actual link to activate the report areas.
    Best regards
