Broadcaster Settings in BW7.0 WebTemplates

Hello experts,
my customer uses an individual copy of the standard program RSRD_BROADCAST_STARTER for mass publishing of web reports within Information Broadcasting. This individual copy manipulates the entries in the table RSRD_SETT_NODE_A ; variable values in the settings (written in RSRD_SETT_NODE_A) are replaced by entries coming from a control table (containing user names and their indiviual variable values).
For WebTemplates created with BW7.0 (Nw2004s) the format of the variable string in table RSRD_SETT_NODE_A has changed. Where a variable string in BW 3.5 followed the format &<variable_name1>&<variable_name2>&<..>&<variable_value1>&<..> the variable definition in BW7.0 Web Templates is implemented as a XML string.
Now in case of my customer's application it is not that easy to replace the variable values in the XML coding.
Does anybody use the RSRD_SETT_NODE_A in a similar way as my customer and has found a solution for BW7.0-WebTemplates ?
Thank you.

Hello Peter,
thank you for your advise. You cannot know that, but in our case one user can have more than one assignment of variable values (e.g. more than one cost center), so it is not possible to derive ONE variable value from a user name. Unfortunately this does not solve my problem.
Best regards,
Holger
PS: are you sure that I would be able to derive my variable values from the sy-uname. I would expect this to be the user who executes the job (Broadcast administration background user).

Broadcasting Settings: Workbook Precalc. Variable Sequence

Dear all,
does anybody know how it is possible to change the sequence of the variables for the pre-calculation in the Broadcaster settings for distributing a Workbook with different Queries?
Thanks a lot
Dieter

the sequence can be determined in the query level.
but if multiple query user in workbook or web template, there is a logic defined in a note 1060735.
regarding workbook Note 1416277 is describing a error correction.

Information Broadcasting settings Problem.

Hi All,
When we are trying to change the Information Broadcasting settings for some queries. We are not able to edit the existing settings as the message pops up saying system is not ready for change and asking us for the modifiable system. Is it possible to change the information broadcasting settings with out making the system modifiable?.
Regards,
Aditya.

In which system you are trying to do this?
I understand in DEV system, there should not be any problem of doing the system modifiable and then do the Broadcasting setting and then transport it to Qly and Prod.
However Qly and Prod system are not supposed to be modifiable.

Transfer Broadcaster settings from 3.0 to 7.0

Recently BEx has been upgraded from 3.0 to 7.0. Is there a way to display broadcaster settings from 7.0 that were created in 3.0? Or transfer them to 7.0? I have multiple broadcaster settings created in 3.0 and I want to transfer them to 7.0 to be able to use the email option as an attachment.
Thanks

Information Broadcasting Settings (Dynamic Change or User Exit)

Hi,
We are working on BI7 and we have a need to print a cost centre specific report on different cost centre specific printers.
This relationship of user to cost center to printer is stored in a custom table(Ztable) as given below:
User Id         Cost Center              Printer
Abc               2000                        XYZ
It is easy to setup a setting in the Information Broadcasting and use it for printing. But problem is coming from the fact that it is a static setting and a new setting is required for each record of above custom table (Ztable).
Also, if there is any change in custom table entry, which is linked with R3 source system then we need to do manual changes in the Information Broadcasting settings. There are more than 520 printer records in this Ztable.
It could be better, if there was some way to use a single information broadcasting setting and use it with different parameters but I could not find any such option.
Other possibility is to create the settings by a background job but I did not see any such possibility as well.
Is there any user exit that can be used to manipulate Information Broadcasting settings in background?
Thank you very much for your help!
Praveen

hi praveen,
One of the important enhanceents in BI7 broadcasting was to "individualize the content based on master data"......
   for example....If the last field in your master data record was an email address...
                        you can create a report,   filter by the UserID (1'st field) and email it...
   I didn't send it to a printer....but I am guessing it should not be much different than emailing...
Good luck, BB

Changing Broadcaster settings

Hello everybody,
I would like to know if there is any way of changing the owner of a broadcaster setting. I am the presently the owner of the settings and would like to transfer it to someone else (the client would like to keep the same technical name of the broadcaster settings). Is there any way of doing this? Any tricks?
I tried by opening RSRD_SETTING table via SM30, but SAP will not let me change its values...
Thankyou

I not sure either there is possibility to do it.
I would suggest to create the same settings with different user in TA RSRD_ADMIN.

Broadcast Settings

Hi
I have a process chain that kicks off a "Trigger Event Data Change" for an infoprovider, I have several broadcast settings for a web template which uses a query based on this infoprovider. When I first ran it, all the settings executed perfectly, about 2 days later some executed while others fell over with an error, the problem is everytime I run it some of the settings work while others fail but never the same ones fail, but there is always a failiure, the error message I get back is,
*Error: java.lang.NullPointerException*
I get this for each setting that fails.
The BEX Query is fine and when run on its own runs fine, the same with the WAD. The error only happens with the broadcast setting.
Anyone ever have the same problem? Thanks for the help.
Regards
Lyndon

It looks like there is something wrong with the java engine... maybe it's a time out, maybe it's something else...
let a systemguy have a look at it... (logs...)

Execute many Broadcasting Settings at one time

Hello Gurus,
I have ~ 20 broadcasting settings defined in my system and I am searching for a way (Transaction, Program etc.) to execute them in one step.
What I currenty do is:
Open each setting in Bex broadcaster in the Portal, press execute, and wait, and this for 20 times.
I have defined a broadcasting event in a process chain, that executes scheduled settings. But when errors in the chain occur, I have to start the settings manually.
Points will be awarded for every good tip!

Help in Finding BEx Broadcasting Settings

We recently refreshed our Sandbox environment with a copy of our Dev environment. We use Information Broadcasting. When someone opens a Workbook in BEx in our Sandbox environment and clicks "Distribute Workbook", they are prompted with the Broadcaster logon screen for our Dev environment and not Sandbox. This makes sense, since we copied our Dev environment. How do we change the settings so that the Broadcaster connects to Sandbox? Thanks.

Hi,
You need to make changes in SPRO to maintain Broadcasting Settings .

Is Broadcasting Settings Transportable?

Hello friends,
                  I am working on Broadcasting Information from SAP Netweaver Enterprise Portal.
                 I am working in BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER and i have created broadcasting settings for a query and i have successfully broadcasted the reports to different users.
                  My question is i want to do it in BW PRODUCTION SERVER .I know that we can transport queries or workbooks from DEVELOPMENT SERVER TO QUALITY AND FROM THEIR TO BW PRODUCTION SERVER.
                    We will do all the Broadcasting settings for a query in BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER.Is it possible to transport BROADCASTING SETTINGS from BW DEVELOPMENT SERVER TO BW PRODUCTION SERVER?
                  If so,how to transport?
             Shall we directly do all the settings in BW PRODUCTION SERVER instead of transporting it from DEVELOPMENT TO PRODUCTION?
         Please, send me the relevant answer.It's very urgent.
Thanks

Hi,
Transporting Broadcast Settings
To make the broadcast settings available in various BI systems, transport them.
If the transport system is activated, a dialog box for specifying a transport request appears when you save the broadcast settings. Enter the required transport request.
If a fixed standard BEx transport request is specified, the broadcast settings are automatically written to this request and the transport request dialog box is not displayed.
The technical name of the object type (TLOGO) for broadcast settings in transport requests is BRSE.
Thanks

Broadcasting settings scheduling

Hi,
I was asked by a user who is creating settings for a query in the BEx Broadcaster if there is a report/table or some other tool to check the scheduling that he has set up for the hundreds of settings that he has created or has yet to create, instead of looking at the scheduling for each setting individually.
Thanks,
John

Use transaction SCOT. Goto Utilities -> Overview of send orders. This will show you all sent and awaiting mails. Dependent on how often Basis have set your send mail (GOTO -> Utilities -> Send Mail) frequency, any waiting jobs will have message number 672, otherwise they should all end up with message 73.

Broadcasting settings not transported at all

Hi Community,
I transported object BRSE (broadcasting object) with the Transport Connection (RSA1 transaction) from development system to the test one. I also transported previously the object TMPL (the Web Template in which I customized the broadcasting).
The transportation was succesfull, everything was transported Ok except from the broadcasting schedulling settings. I'm using the option Schedulling in SAP Backgroud Processing.
I really don't know why?
I'll appreciate any help on this issue.
Best regards,

The problem for me it turned out that my locale settings were different on each machine. One US one UK. I set the language settings in the CC launcher, and had to reinstall all the apps, then everything was fine.
