Building Reports Using the Web Intelligence HTML Report Panel - URL

Is there a way to launch HTML report panel directly through a URL for creating webi reports..I know we can set the preference for HTML report panel in infoview...but thats not the requirement. I have to launch the HTML or Java report panel editor according to the User selection on the fly....its a customized java code for webi reports.
Any help on this is appreciated!
Thanks

Running reports through the web with SSO enabled

Hey,
I am trying to run several reports through the web by calling a direct url, but for some reason every time I am prompted to sign into Portal because SSO is enabled. What can I do to avoid the sign in page and run the report directly?
Thanks

Creating multiple tab reports using the same query in Web intelligence

Hi All,
I have created a Universe on a BW Query which has fields as below
AGE Depaatment Gender Grade
25       FIN                M            A
27       LES               F            A+
60       SWS            M             A++
Based on this data i have created a WEbi report which shows all of these data under one tab.
Now i create a new report tab in the same Webi Document by right cliicking the existing report and going to inset report and saving it.
Similarly i create two more new report tabs.
in each of these tabs i want to show data only for the concened departments.ie =1st report contains all the departments.
2nd report contains only finance data, third contains only Les data and fourth only SWs Data.
Is it possible to create this report using the same query?
Regards,
Raj.

You should use report filters, not query filters.
A query filter will affect the entire document. Every report tab that pulls data from that query will be impacted. If you start with a single report, by default it shows the data from the query. If you duplicate that report tab, then it's still attached to the first query. There are various ways to create report filters (input controls, quick filter, invoking the filter area from the toolbar) and a report filter impacts only blocks on that report tab. You can even create block filters by clicking on the block first, then creating your filter.
This is a fairly confusing bit for folks that are new to Web Intelligence.

How To Clear The Web Intelligence Report Cache in BO 4.0 Linux

Hi Experts,
I have followed the SAP Note 1207029 to Clear The Web Intelligence Report Cache in BO 4.0 Linux, but in the note they have mentioned the path of BO XI 3.1 that doesn't exist in BO 4.0.
Given Path in the note: <installation directory>/useraccount/xir2/bobje/data/computername_50064/storage/docs
In BO 4.0: Inside Installation directory theres no useraccount directory.
Please anybody tell me the path of BO 4.0 in the linux server to clear the WEBI report cache.
Thanks in Advance,
Gandhi

This would be your path

Displaying report in .pdf format while Running oracle reports over the web

I am running a report over the web via IE. I am suing .pdf
format as the file type. The problem I am facing is that the
report comes out with a blank in acrobat reader if there are
just one or two records - i.e less thatn one pagefull. THe
reports displays output only when there ar more than one
pagefull of records.
Any explanation for this bezarre behavior and any suggestions?
I will very much appreciate your help.
Regards
Prasad.

in R12 I found 2 choice
1) when submitting requests (if available) you can set the output format by using the Options button (upon sompletion section):
layout --> format --> select format you need (RTF/HTML/EXCEL/PDF)
2) in the request form (view->request) selecr the report you want to reprint in the Tools menu select print/republish, in the html page that pop up select output format you want, number of copies =1 submit

Can't start the web site of Reports Services

Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
After installation of the 9iAS, can't start the web site of
Reports Services
and Form Services from the URL listed in the postinstallation
guide using
default port no 1950. The dev60html and devdem60/demo
directories are not
existing, the runrep.htm and runform.htm files are in the
directory
tools/web60/html. I also tried to replace the dev60html with
tools/web60/html
in the URL but it won't work.
During the installation the discoverer and portal tools failed,
the portal
hanged at 100%, and the discoverer didn't install the util

Hi,
Dumb question : is one of your server listening on port 7001 ? If not, should it ?
What is the expected behavior ? A managed trying to connect to the admin server ?
Check the value for ADMIN_URL value, set in the startManagedServer.sh or cmd.
Another dumb question : do you have a firewall ?

BO slow when accessing reports through the web but not with a installed client.

Hi
We have installed BO 4.0 SP08 in a virtual machine with 32 RAM and 8 CPU processors. We have divided the APS in a number of instance with different services. We have also 8 Web Intelligence Processing servers.
The application is slow when trying to create or view a report from the web browser (ie or chrome). If we use the installed Web Rich Client on a machine, then it works fine.
Does anyone knows why?
thanks

Any ideas??
I don’t know, but whatever it is, it’s preventing you from creating complete sentences.
Run the Apple Hardware Test as described on page 101 of your owner’s manual to see if it detects any problems.

Using the result of 1st report to 2 nd report

Hi,
I have created one report with 5 Dataproviders.
I want to create another report by using the result of 2nd dataprovider of thr 1st report.
Is it possible in BO XI R2 Desktop intelligence?
Thanks,
Indu

Hi Indu,
If I understand you correctly, you want to create the query once but run mulitple reports of it. Is it okay if the reports are in tabs within the same document or do they have to be in separate documents?
If the later it is not really possible. There are a few options
It is possible to use a query create in QaaWS, but there is no schedule option around this, so every call is on demand.
Also you can create instances of reports using Web Intelligence/Crystal Reports and have more that one Live Office document/Xcelsius dashboard point to the instance. In this event you are runnig the query once and using the displaying it in different reports.
Finally, if you just want to reuse a query from one report to another then you can copy and paste the report and change the report layout.
Hope this helps

Any online guides to the flavour of SQL used in Web Intelligence?

Hi,
I'm new to Web Intelligence and have just seen you can edit the SQL in "SQL Viewer" window.
My background is in Microsoft SQL (t-sql) so am very competent in this flavour of SQL.
However, I'm struggling to find a guide to the flavour of SQL used in Web Intelligence.
Does anyone know any good online resources for the complete SQL language it uses?
For example, I'm keen to use "Case When" logic that I know well from Microsoft but I can't seem to get it to work here.
Thanks, Bill

the "flavor" of SQl depends on the DB against which a particular Universe is created.
Based on the Universe connection particular SQL definitions will be used.
If your Webi report is against MS SQL server, then SQL server type SQL is used. If it's ORACLE - it'll be oracle sql....

Having a print problem on a mailing label report using the merge modules.

Crystal Reports 2008 v 12.1.6.1116
when I print directly from Crystal Reports designer, the labels print correctly. If I print the report from our application software using the Crystal merge module, the top of page margin is not the same.
I am using Crystal Report 2008 Fix Pack 1.5 Merge Modules.
Any idea what might be causing this ? I do not see any settings in the CrystalReportViewer that would cause the top of page margin to change.
Note: We were using a previous version of Crystal Reports, version 11 using the merge modules and it worked just fine. After changing to the 2008 merge modules we are running into this problem.

Which Version of VS.NET you are using?
       VS 2008 v 9.0.30729.1 SP
. Which application you are developing desktop or web?
       Desktop
. Error messages you are facing?
        No error message, just the top of page margin is wrong
. Are you facing this error in development machine?
       The mailing label report works just fine printing directly from the Crystal Reports 2008 Design application. However is I try to print the exact same report using the CrystalReportViewer in the merge module, the top of page margin is different. Basically printing from the designer, there is some spacing at the top of the page, printing in the vb.net app the spacing at the time of is missing.
. Are you trying to deploy this application?
       Yes
. Operating System?
        The OS I have tried this on is XP Pro SP3 and also Vista Business SP1
. How are you deploying your application?
        We build a installshield setup to install the merge modules

How to view my pro*C reports on the web with forms10g

Hi All,
I have a scenario where :
I just migrated my forms from forms6i to forms10g. My IDS 10g R2 sits on Windows XP machine through which I build my form. My IAs 10g R2 sits on Linux machine throught which I compile my forms. Lot of my forms uses pro*C reports which I want to display on the web. I'm using host command in my forms. My questions are :
1) Do I have to use webtuil?
2) Is my pro*C reports needs to be ftp into my windows machine or I can still run it even though they sit on linux machine.
3) How can i dsiplay my pro*C report on the web?

Hi
I think Portal applications are much more simple to build and lighter than developer apps, but Portal fits better to "simple" apps, without many business rules, complex validation/navigation etc. If the app you need to build has such characteristics, maybe you must use developer.

Hello,
I am thinking of creating an extranet and was going to use Portal - but coming from a forms/reports background I am thinking of looking at 9i forms/reports. Are they still thick clients as when I played around with web-deployed forms before they seemed pretty slow. Would I be better off writing it in Portal ?

Reports Server/running reports on the web.

I am trying to configure my web server to run reports on the web. I have followed the instructions provided by Oracle, but some is not clear. When i try to run report on the browser, i get the following error:
CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
Oracle documentaion say the following about the steps to configure the web server:
1-Start your Web server by entering the following:
2-Start your browser.
3-Create a listener.
4-Configure your Web server mapping and note the physical and virtual directories. For example:
I have done all the steps above except creating a listener. The documentation doesnt explain that step at all.
I have created a cgi-bin directory and made it excetable and copied the rwcgi60.exe from reports server machine to the web server machine. I also copied the TNSNAMES entry for the web server from the reports server machine to the web server machine.
Here is the command i use(just trying to make sure that web CGI is responding, but it doesnt work)
http://web_server/scm/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe
Other question: On the server machine, i have 3 oracle directories: ORA81, ISUITES, 806, which one should be the home directory for the reports to work on the web??
I am using oracle 8.1.7 with 9iAS release 1.
Thanks

ALV report using the field catalog

which is the quickest way to generate an ALV report using the field catalog merge. without needing to build the field catalog manually .
is it easier to create a structure and passe it in the field catalog merge . if yes can i have an example plzzzz

hI
Supports the creation of the field catalog for the ALV function modules
based either on a structure or table defined in the ABAP Data
Dictionary, or a program-internal table.
The program-internal table must either be in a TOP Include or its
Include must be specified explicitly in the interface.
The variant based on a program-internal table should only be used for
rapid prototyping since the following restrictions apply:
o Performance is affected since the code of the table definition must
always be read and interpreted at runtime.
o Dictionary references are only considered if the keywords LIKE or
INCLUDE STRUCTURE (not TYPE) are used.
If the field catalog contains more than 90 fields, the first 90 fields
are output in the list by default whereas the remaining fields are only
available in the field selection.
If the field catalog is passed with values, they are merged with the
'automatically' found information.
Below is an example ABAP program which will populate a simple internal table(it_ekpo) with data and
display it using the basic ALV grid functionality(including column total). The example details the main
sections of coding required to implement the ALV grid functionality:
                         Data declaration
                         Data retrieval

*& Example of a simple ALV Grid Report                                 *

*& fields from the EKKO table.                                         *
