Post Author: palm
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi All,
I am working on the DF which will take 100 Oracle Views , some may be tables in it
Do any one know the limit of tables or views to include in DF Or is DF can handle any number of tables or views in it that are joined in anyways?
And one more , i had around 30 table in my DF , when i double click the table or view that are inserted in DF it will expand and minimize
But i face this problem , when i expand a table by double clicking it in DF and then save that DF , the BVM window closes
Do any one know about this , please help me
Thanks!

How to change the Data Foundation for an existing Business Element

My Issue:
I have quite a few reports that use the same Business View. The Business View has an under lying Data Foundation that uses a Dynamic Data Connection (DDC). I no longer want to use this DDC because production users are complaining they do not want to have to select a data source each time (multiple times when the report includes sub reports) they run/refresh their reports.
The Holy Grail:
I would like to change the Data Foundation that my Business Element layer is built upon and use another data foundation with identical tables, linking, and fields. The new data foundation would be using a production connection. This solves my immediate issue and has a great side benefit of providing a convenient way to promote reports from development to stage/test, to production and would not require production users to have to select which environment they want their report to run against.
I am logged in to BVM as administrator:
When I look at the Business Element layer Property Browser, I see a Data Foundation Property but is is disabled (such that it can not be changed).
Is there a way to change the Data Foundation that is used by an existing Business Element layer ?
I'd appreciate any help that someone can offer on this topic. Even if it is not possible and someone can shed some light on why this would not work or would not be a good idea, I'd be interested in learning

Technically No the system will not allow you to change as it is involved with many depreciation areas and change is not permitted for control reason.
You only need to retire the asset, reverse the postings, assign correctly and repost the values.

How to undo "Set case to" on a column in the data foundation?

Hello,
I have a multisource universe currently pointing at only one database (Oracle). In the data foundation I right-clicked one of the columns named "Category" and selected "Set case to upper case". This broke the query with the following error: "Database error: [Data Federator Driver] [Server] The column name 'CATEGORY' could not be found in the table/alias: 'Table__1'. (IES 10901) (WIS 10901)"
I would like to undo this change but can't find a way to do it. The only options in "Set case to" are upper and lower case, with no option to go back to the original/default. How can I fix this without having to reimport the table? I read that you can tweak case-sensitivity settings in a .prm file but I would rather not change things at the filesystem level.
EDIT: I worked around it by changing the object in the business layer to use the original case of the column name. But is there no way to change back how it actually looks in the data foundation? A minor issue perhaps, but annoying.
Thanks.
Pedro G. Acevedo

Hi
We can make changes back using the Undo option.
If you have selected Category ..and selected
Selected "Set case to upper case" CATEGORY
selected "Set case to lower case" category
If you want the actual DB field Category use the option :
Edit --> Undo Set (IDT)
If it is still not change back to “Category” , just delete the table from Data foundation and add again to same table once again and create the joins

Hello,
Ingo Hilgefort has documented this step by step in this SCN article:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/403ddef9-52ca-2d10-9193-9ffd190219fe?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
Starting on page 13, you can use the same steps - he selects data from a table join, you select FN instead for function module.
You can also get to it via this link:

Reading the data from one component view into another component view

Hi All,
I have requirement to read the data from one component into another component while creating the service order. Here are the details.
Main View for Service order: BT116H_SRVO in that we have two assignment blocks like Organizational data(BTORGSET) and amount allocation(BTAMNTALL).This two blocks are two different component which are associated with main component(BT116H_SRVO).
I need to read the sales org data from component/View(BTORGSET/Orgsetdata) into Component/View(BTAMNTALL(HdrBillPlanDet) method DO_VALIDATE_INPUT.
I searched in SDN but all the posts are related to the data exchange between two views in same component. But My scenario is different as explained above.
Refer the attachments for the component link..
Please let me know how we can achieve this one..
Thanks,
Sapsar.

Finally I was able to fix my code...My Mistakes were need to read the parent node above three levels and need to use the relation entity name while reading the data..
Below is the correction code
IF iv_index IS NOT INITIAL.
     lr_iterator ?= collection_wrapper->get_iterator( ).
     lr_current ?= lr_iterator->get_by_index( iv_index ).
     lr_entity ?= lr_iterator->get_by_index( iv_index ).
   ELSE.
     lr_current = collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
   ENDIF.
*loop back to root entity
         WHILE lr_entity->get_name( ) NE 'BTAdminH'.
           lr_entity = lr_entity->get_parent( ).
         ENDWHILE.
*Get the related entity
         IF lr_entity IS BOUND.
           lr_collection ?= lr_entity->get_related_entities( iv_relation_name = 'BTHeaderOrgmanSet' ) .
           IF lr_collection IS BOUND.
             lr_orgset_m = lr_collection->get_current( ).
*            lr_orgset = lr_orgset_m->get_related_entity( iv_relation_name = 'BTOrgSet' ).
             lr_orgset = lr_orgset_m->get_property_as_string( 'SALES_ORG' ).

Unable to connect to the Data Access service for this management server

Hate to raise a sleeping horse but was hoping someone might have some insight into why SCOM Report Server install is failing. I am using a domain account for SCOM 2012 R2 services in a distributive environment

Well, I’m back to trying to get SCOM Report Server up and running. This time I decided to try the command line silent install and rely on logs to debug. But it still fails.

Pass the data from a form in workflow to z table

Hi all,
How can I pass the data from a form in workflow to z table?

Thanks for your answer, I tried the solution 2, I create "Submit" button, and ser the mapping scope to be "All data rows", it only works when I select at least one row, otherwise the data would not be passed.
Another question is I have serveral imported table parameter, for each table I have one "submit" event, I want these tables to be submitted at the same time, but if I click the submit button in one table toolbar, I can only submit the table data which has a submit button clicked, for other tables, the data is not passed, how can I achieve it?
Thanks.

Query regarding the data type for fetcing records from multiple ODS tables

hey guys;
i have a query regarding the data type for fetcing records from multiple ODS tables.
if i have 2 table with a same column name then in the datatype under parent row node i cant add 2 nodes with the same name.
can any one help with some suggestion.

Hi Mudit,
One option would be to go as mentioned by Padamja , prefxing the table name to the column name or another would be to use the AS keyoword in your SQL statement.
AS is used to rename the column name when data is being selected from your DB.
So, the query Select ename as empname from emptable will return the data with column name as empname.

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
           if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
               // Added for multiple database support
               DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
            try{
                //To support multiple queries in BO reports
             for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
               DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
               DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
               infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
               infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
               String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();
               dataProvs.changeDataSource(ds.getID(), "UnivCUID=" + newDsCuid, true);
               if(dataProvs.mustFillChangeDataSourceMapping())
                    // Re-map data source to target Universe objects
                    ChangeDataSourceMapping mapping = dataProvs.getChangeDataSourceMapping();
                    ChangeDataSourceObjectMapping[] maps = mapping.getAllMappings();
                    dataProvs.setChangeDataSourceMapping();
                }//for dataProvs.getCount()
            }catch(Exception e)
                  mLogger.info("BOReportObject","createReport","Inside multiple data providers loop"+e.getMessage());
Thanks in advance
Shameer
Edited by: Shameertaj on May 20, 2009 3:08 AM

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dan

How to manage a data file using Business Contact Manager database tool

I set up BCM on my desktop and now want to share with the rest of the office. I downloaded BCM database tool on the C drive
of the server and all was well until I tried to move through the wizard. The only option that gets me to a data file is creating a database. However, I receive the error message "Cannot create a new database. The operation has been rolled back. Please
make sure the database service is running". How can I make this work? Truthfully, I don't want to create a new database - I have already set one up; Restore only gives me the database server instance but no choices for the database name list. I have installed
BCM on another co-workers desktop and allowed the database to be shared with her. What more am I missing? Why can't I get the server to see the data file?

Hi,
If the Database has not been shared, you can't connect to it.
Please also confirm you have been granted permission to access the shared Business Contact Manager database.
You can refer to this article below and there are some factors that you should consider:
Business Contact Manager cannot connect to the shared database
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/business-contact-manager-cannot-connect-to-the-shared-database-HA010262548.aspx
I hope it can be helpful.

Refreshing the Data from a embed view in a view container

Hi everybody
I would like to know how can I do to refresh all data from a View with a view container the problem is:
that I have a window that has a view at the same time this has a view container. The Main view brings the data of editable elements when I select one element of the main view the view container brings a list for that element (dependencies) but only the first time a choose an element loads the correct data, when I choose another one it brings the same old data and doesn't make the call for the wdDoInit() method.
The question is:
How do I force the view to refresh all the data or call again the wdDoInit() method?
Thank you for your help

Aida,
Lets say you have two components C1 and C2 and you want method from C1 to be available in C2 then follow these steps:-
1) Goto the Interface Controller of C1 and create a method there lets say doSomething
2) Then goto C2. There you can see Used Web Dynpro Components --> Right click Add Used Component --> Give some name say C1Comp --> Click browse and select C1 --> Click Finish.
3) Next goto Component Controller of C2 --> Properties --> Click Add and check if C1 is added. If not then select the checkbox and select OK.
4) Now goto Implementation tab of C2 and lets say wdDoInit you can write following code:-
wdThis.wdGetC1CompInterface().doSomething();
