Bookmark Issue in WAD (Report Output without Variable Screen)

Hi ,
This issue is with the Saving of Report Output to Bookmark.
Expected Output:
Clicking on the Bookmark should bring out the Report Output with the Period and Year, which was used while saving the Bookmark. It should not pop up variable screen at the beginning.
Issue:
Currently, when I click the bookmark, Its triggers the default template and it brings out the Variable Screen with the default Selections, which i dont want to. I need to get the same output with the values which I saved under Bookmark.
Please suggest me a solution...
Thanks / Selvan

Hi, i dont rememberm but, can you check mark you DP_1 and properties->Behavior->Display variables screen->on
I hope helps.

Issue with Data Provider name in variable screen for BEx Analyzer

Hello all,
We got an issue with Data Provider name in Variable screen in BEx Analayzer.
We want to change the DataProvider name there to Description of the report instead of its Technical name.
Any inputs are appreciated.
Thanks
Kumar

You have to create a workbook to do this.
Refresh your query/report. In Bex analyser, there is one toolbar named BEx design toolbox, If you are not able to see it in analyser, right click on the toolbar space of BEx analyser and click on BEx design toolbox. Here, goto to design mode, by clicking on a sysbol like 'A'. after that place the curser where you want to see the Query description. and click on insert text (T) in BEx toolbox. click on it and check "Query description" in constant tab. in the general tab you need to assign a dataprovider, for that assign your query name in workbook settings (in Bex design toolbox). also check the "display caption" in general tab.

Bind Variables with AND in String causing Issues in XML & Report Outputs

Hi all,
I'm creating a BI Publisher report (10.1.3.2) and am experiencing an issue with the interprutation of Bind Variables in the Data Template.
Here is an example of some of the Data template
<dataTemplate name="BudgetDataBU" description="BudgetDataBU" dataSourceRef="DLXN">
   <parameters>
      <parameter name="p_Year" dataType="Integer" include_in_output="true"/>
      <parameter name="p_Measure" dataType="character" include_in_output="true"/>
      <parameter name="p_Currency" dataType="character" include_in_output="true"/>
      <parameter name="p_Version" dataType="character" include_in_output="true"/>
   </parameters>
   <dataQuery>
      <sqlStatement name="BusUnits">
           <![CDATA[SELECT DISTINCT CC.BUSINESS_UNIT as BUSINESS_UNIT
                    FROM   DLXN_FACT_DATA_DET FD,
                           DLXN.COST_CENTRE CC
                    WHERE FD.COST_CENTRE = CC.COST_CENTRE
                    AND FD.CAL_YEAR    = :p_Year
                    AND FD.Currency      = :p_Currency
                    AND FD.Measure      = :p_Measure
                    AND FD.Version        = :p_Version
                    AND CC.DLXN_VIEW = 'Delexian' ]]>
           </sqlStatement>
       <sqlStatement name="Details">
           <![CDATA[SELECT DLXN_FACT_DATA_DET.VERSION,
                           DLXN_FACT_DATA_DET.CURRENCY,
                           DLXN_FACT_DATA_DET.CAL_YEAR as CAL_YEAR,
                           SUM(nvl(DLXN_FACT_DATA_DET.JAN_AMT,0)) as JAN_AMT,
        </sqlStatement>
    </dataQuery>The problem is with the :p_Measure Bind Variable but it could just as easily be any of the other character parameters.
The particular string value that is causing a problem is "Travel and Expenditure". I believe it is due to the "AND" in the string but this string value cannot be changed in the database to say "Travel & Expenditure".
I have thought about using a REPLACE function in the SELECT statement but see this as an ugly solution.
Any input greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

To display the selection screen variant name in WAD report output.

Hello experts,
I have a requirement which is to display the selection screen variant description in the output of the WAD report.
I managed halfway, by using the object "Information field", which displays all the values which are selected by the variant.
Example:I have created a cost center report created using WAD, since I need some graphical displays..
In the selection screen, I have the characteristic "cost center" as input field. I have created a variant " GM - IT" which will include few cost centers managed by GM. In the output, I want the dispaly to be "Cost center - GM IT". Currently it displays "Cost Center - a,b,c,d" as the values a,b,c,d are the values from the variant name "GM-IT"
Please let me know if this required any java script. I am not familiar with java / html codes and any help would be much appreciated (and rewarded)
Thanks in advance
KS

Hi,
Try this.
If you want to include your variables in your WAD means you have to choose "Force Variable Screen" option to be in enabled condition.
TO enable this,in WAD select your Template(New Template1) click the WEBITEM , it'll shows all generic properties , here you can enable this "Force variable screen"
Save and execute your WAD now you can get your variable screen.

XML Publicher Report Output without Prompt Value

Hello,
I've one report(XML Publisher) which prints various data from PS_JOB,PS_PERSONAL_DATA and some other Performance tables.
The Prompt Values are from a dynamic view which shows the Subordinate employees(emplids and names) of the login employee.
The base query view i created has all the information of all active employees from all Business Unit. Now when i select when employee from prompt table the output values for that particular employee and is ok. But when i don't select anything(no table edit), it is not showing the output of my subordinates but for all the employee. That is Right because i've base report view is for all employees.
Is there any way that if i dont select anything from prompt values i'll get only output of my subordinates only?
Regards!

Thanks. I did try that before but the view didn't build but i don't how today the view built successfully.
But when i tried to run the query with a normal user who's having subordinate the excel output is still blank.

Report output for the screen

Hello
The application POC that I'm contributing to is a task tracking system. The task is the central table and in support of that are notes. A Task can have many notes - or it can have zero notes.
I have an SQL statement that I have written, which contains an outer join. The outer join, as written, displays the same Task data with each comment. This is redundant and I would like to eliminate it.
This is what I presently have (which I do not like the looks of)
TaskNum1 TaskDesc1 TaskDate1 Note1_1
TaskNum1 TaskDesc1 TaskDate1 Note1_2
TaskNum1 TaskDesc1 TaskDate1 Note1_3
TaskNum1 TaskDesc1 TaskDate1 Note1_4
TaskNum2 TaskDesc2 TaskDate2 Note2_1
TaskNum2 TaskDesc2 TaskDate2 Note2_2
TaskNum2 TaskDesc2 TaskDate2 Note2_3
...and this is what I am seeking... (but without the dashes of course)
TaskNum1 TaskDesc1 TaskDate1 Note1_1
----------------------------------------------Note1_2
----------------------------------------------Note1_3
----------------------------------------------Note1_4
TaskNum2 TaskDesc2 TaskDate2 Note2_1
----------------------------------------------Note2_2
----------------------------------------------Note2_3
Can someone point me in the right direction - or let me know if there is something more I can provide so that I can help you to help me?
Thanks

Hi,
You need to look into using the LAG SQL function. Have a look at my posts here: How to achieve Page/Form/Report layout? which should give you a guide to what you can do.

F4 input help on Variable screen is not working on Portal

Dear Experts,
We are facing one issue when we run the WAD report on portal, variable screen gets hang after clicking on input help button (F4) for couple of variables. We are facing same issues when we run the base queries on portal. But when we run the same base queries in RSRT (Tcode) or in BEx Analyzer we are not facing this issue and able to get the input help screen with values.
I also have gone through some old posts related to such issues but didn't help much. We are already on SAP BW 7.4 SP Level 008 and for Char IO Query Filter Value setting is kept as "Values in Master Data Table" only. This is a MD IO with Compounding.
Kindly let me know if anyone has faced such issue.
Thanks in Advance,
Nilesh

Dear Martin,
There is a no long running work process in the backend and data volume is more in Master Data Table, there are around 19 Lacks records available.
For BI Java patch and defaultTrace for errors I will check it with BASIS Admin team. Unfortunately I don’t have rights to do same.
Thanks,
Nilesh

Change comma and period in key figure presentation in BEx WAD reports

Hi gurus
We run our BEx WAD reports in the SAP portal. By default the thousands separator is period and the decimal separator is comma. How can I change this so the period becomes the decimal separator and the comma becomes the thousands separator?
Kind regards
Erik

Hi Erik,
you can change this by setting at user parameters.
At system, at any screen (RSA1) -> menu SYSTEM- > USER PROFILE -> OWN DATA -> Defaults Tab, here you can change.
and Save.
these will reflect in WAD report output.
Best Regards.

WAD Report(Template to be opened in new browser tab)

Hi,
I have an urgent issue with WAD Report.
I have my Template with Tabstrip containing Link Item, which opens another template on click. For this I used transfer state instruction by which new template is opened in the same tab of browser,I need new template(on clicking Link Item) to be opened in new tab of browser and the old one to remain in same browser tab.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rajeswari.

Hi
I did something similar before.
I had three tabs.
Summary Tab
Details Tab
Totals Tab.
By default when user runs the template, first tab is displayed with summary details. When user wants to drill down to the details of particular line, then user clicks on the row. When clicked on the row, details report gets generated in the second tab but user manually needs to go to second tab to see the details.
To achieve this i did the following
DP1, Analysis gird properties
"row selection"-->single with command and used SET_SELECTION_STATE_BY_BINDING.
Thanks

Is it possible to can a program (report output) from SAP Script?

Hi,
From SAP Script I would like to call a report output (without displaying the selection screen).
Is this possible. If so, how can I do this?
Thanks.

H i kumar g,
why not?
In script you can call external subroutine. You must define the subroutine in a program, there you can do a SUBMIT or whatever you want.
See online docu for further explanation.

Problems with using view in a WAD report

Dear experts,
I have created a WAD templete for accounts recievables. It is based on a query which shows a graph of top 5 customers and a table which shows the total recievables. Both the graph and the table are based on the same query. While the graph is based on the query, the table is based on a particular view of that query. While the graph shows the correct result for any period, the view was showing a wrong value. I just saved the view again and it started showing correct result. I would like to know if the view takes the date of its creation as a key date. Do i need to remove the view and create a query to show total recievables? Or is there anything other than this I might be doing worng? Please guide. Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Sumit

Sumit,
Try running the view directly in BEx Analyzer. Are the results in line with the web?
Try calling teh web report with the variable screen and check the date value being used.

Variable screen button/link

Hi
I want to add a simple "hyperlink" in my WAD, calling up the variable screen again (instead of right clicking and going via enhanced menu to "variables entry".
Sounds simple, but what it the html code for that ?
Regards
Torben

Hi Deepak:
Thanks for your suggestion.
I have also implemented that to fill in the value for one variable. However, if the variable has been filled, the variable screen are not shown.
Then, it is just a one shot run.
I have also tested that trough the context menu option, but the works the same. If the variable is empty, the variable screen comes up. If the variable has been filled, the current screen are just refreshed.
<b>Could you/someone tell me what is going on?</b>

Variable input values issue with Portal reports in WAD

Hi Gurus,
We have issue with our reports which are created in WAD and when executed through CRM portal. We are executing the report with some selection criteria by changing default values, and once we get the out put we use SAVEAS option to save the report to favourites. But the issue arises when we open the reprot again by clicking OPEN tab next to SAVEAS button. It opens our report, but the selection screen vaues are getting changed to default instead of showing the values which we entered before saving the report.
ex: we have fiscalyear/period: default value is 001.2009 - 010.2009, but i changed the value to 001.2010 - 010.2010 and saved the out put of the report. when i reopen the report useing open option, it is showing 001.2009 - 010.2009 in input screen.
Please let me know if some one has come accross this issue, or is it standard SAP behaviour. It is working fine when executed through Query designer. This is not related to personlization of variabl.es.
Regards,
Yada

Hi Hari,
Thanks for your promp response...but is there any settings to get the variable values with out saving as variant, because its working fine when executing through query designer....

Yada
