Can we change the Data source in AO ?

Hi Folks,
Environment: SAP HANA on AO
I have the following scenario , Am creating a report on one Calculation View: CV and have done some analysis where I have pulled in some dimensions and kept some background filters.
Now I have to generate the same report on another Calculation View: CV2 ( Similar to structure of CV ) and compare the reports. Is there any way to edit copy the previous report and change the data source? Can you guide me on that?
Regards,
Krishna Tangudu

Hi,
You can exchange the calc view by clicking on the button next to the data source name in the tab "components", but when you do this, the new data source will overwrite the settings and filters from the previous data source. So no, there is not a supported way of exchanging the datasource and keeping the filters of the previous data source.
Best regards,
Victor

  • 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()

    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,

  • How to change the Data sources after deploying the application ??

    Hi All,
    i want to know how to change the Data sources after deploying the application to the application server ???
    I'm using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0)

    Can you access the Enrprise Manager website of the target Application Server from your location? If so, you can change the datasource in it. If not, yo can bundle the datasource definition in your archive and use that one instead of the one configured in the target OC4J container. Or this will just be the responsability of your customer: whenever you send a new WAR file, they have to modify the datasource if needed and deploy the application?

  • How can I change the date of birth on my child's Apple ID?

    HI,
    My son's school have started an initiative where they use iPads as part of their lessons, and subsequently my son has a brand new iPad through the scheme.
    The setup guide that the school supplied directed us to enter the parent's date of birth and the student's name to set up an Apple ID.  However, since setting his iPad up we have become aware of Family Sharing when we setup our old iPad for his younger brother, and the ability to create an Apple ID for a child.  We would obviously like the same level of protection and security for both children, not to mention restricting any accidental purchases!
    Is there any way to change his date of birth from mine to his?  I have read other similar posts with the best solutions apparently to fudge the date of birth so that the child is older than 13 years old.  I would like to do this properly rather than lie about his age...
    Thanks in advance

    You can not change the date of birth on the account. You are explicitly told this when the account is created.
    The ID you created is yours, not your son's. If your son is under 13, then to claim it is your son's ID is to say that you committed a crime when you created it. Create a new account for your son.
    Inform the school that if they are instructing parents to do this because the children are under 13, they are potentially criminally liable. They should know better.

  • I can't change the date on my photos. i click on adjust change and date and it does not give me the earliest date to change

    I can't change the date on my photos in events. I click on adjust date and time of selected photos and the date that I can edit is the oldest photo date and not the earliest. Help?

    iPhoto should be showing you the date of the first photo you selected.
    What do you want to achieve? It should not matter, which photo you select to adjust the time, because all photos will be corrected by the same fixed increment, if you use "Adjust Date and Time".
    If you want to set all photos to the same time, use "Photos > Batch Change > Set Date to" instead.

  • Trying to change the data source for a Crystal Report.

    <p>The method below represents my best attempt to programatically change the data source of a Crystal Report. The goal is to have a routine that will update the data source for reports after they have been distributed to production servers. So far I have not been successful in saving the report back to the CMS. No exceptions are thrown, but when I view the Database Configuration of the report in the CMC nothing has changed.

    <p>
    Am I missing a step, or is there another way to accomplish this?

    <p>Justin,</p>
    <p>
    Thank you for the reply. Time constraints have not allowed me to post back to this tread
    till now. I will try your suggestion. My assumption is that <i>Save the report back to the
    info store</i> refers to <span class="code">IInfoStore.commit(IInfoObjects)</span>.
    </p>
    <p>
    I'm afraid that I do not understand why I don't want to change the report client document,
    or why <i>successfully exporting the report with the new login/password</i> is not what I
    want to do. Any explanation on that statement would be appreciated.
    </p>
    <p>
    I did find a way to accomplish my goal. It involved adding the SSOKEY property to the
    logon property bag. Below you'll see my revised code which modifies the report logon and
    server. I have no idea what
    this does, and SAP support has not been able to tell me why it works. However, what I
    discovered is that if I changed the report option, <b>Database Configuration -> When
    viewing report:</b>, in the CMS to <span class="bi">Use same database logon as when report
    is run</span> from <span class="bi">Prompt the user for database logon</span>, then the
    SSOKEY property had been added to the logon property bag having an empty string as its
    value. This allowed me to successfullyupdate and save the modified logon back to the CMS.
    </p>
    <p>
    So I took a chance and added code to always add the SSOKEY property with an empty string
    as its value, and I could then successfully modify and save the report's logon info
    and server. Again, I don't know what this means, but it has worked so far. If anyone has
    some insight or comments, either are welcome. Thank you in advance.

  • How can I change the date format in Reminders and in Notes?

    How can I change the date format in both Notes and Reminders? Preference on Imac and Settings in IOS do not allow me to change the format in those 2 apps.
    I Like to see 10oct rather than 10/10, as an example.

    I do not have Mavericks or iOS - but the first thing I would do is reset the defaults - I'll use Mavericks as an example
    From If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac - Apple Support
    OS X Yosemite and Mavericks
        Open System Preferences.
        From the View menu, choose Language & Region.
        Click the Advanced button.
        Click the Dates tab.
        Click the Restore Defaults button.
        Click the Times tab.
        Click the Restore Defaults button.
        Click OK.
        Quit the app where you were seeing incorrect dates or times displayed.
        Open the app again, and verify that the dates and times are now displayed correctly.
    Then customize to taste - OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
    OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
    Change the language and formats used to display dates, times, numbers, and currencies in Finder windows, Mail, and other apps. For example, if the region for your Mac is set to United States, but the format language is set to French, then dates in Finder windows and email messages appear in French.
        Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Language & Region.
        Choose a geographic region from the Region pop-up menu, to use the region’s date, time, number, and currency formats.
        To customize the formats or change the language used to display them, click Advanced, then set options.
        In the General pane, you can choose the language to use for showing dates, times, and numbers, and set formats for numbers, currency, and measurements.
        In the Dates and Times panes, you can type in the Short, Medium, Long, and Full fields, and rearrange or delete elements. You can also drag new elements, such as Quarter or Milliseconds, into the fields.
        When you’re done customizing formats, click OK.
        The region name in Language & Region preferences now includes “Custom” to indicate you customized formats.
    To undo all of your changes for a region, choose the region again from the Region pop-up menu. To undo your changes only to advanced options, click Advanced, click the pane where you want to undo your changes, then click Restore Defaults.
    To change how time is shown in the menu bar, select the “Time format” checkbox in Language & Region preferences, or select the option in Date & Time preferences.
    Here's the result AppleScript i use to grab the " 'Short Date' ' + ' 'Short Time' "  to paste into download filenames - works good until I try to post it here - the colon " : " is a no-no but is fine in the Finder
    Looks like iOS Settings are a bit less robust

  • Urgent- Can we change the data in an Approved sales order

    Can we change the data once the Sales Order is Approved. If not Is there a solution to be done through SDK or B1 itself. Any help will be greatly apprieciated.
    Thanks
    John

    Hi John,
    Unfortunately it cannot be done. Because if you are not able do it manually or by User Interface then it will not be possible by SDK or any other approach,as far as I Know.
    Meanwhile you can create a duplicate of the approved document. Make changes to that. And Close or Cancel the approved one.

  • Can we change the date of cost center

    Can we change the date of cost center with we have already created????????

    Hi Shivika
    Changing a date can mean many things.. Example - You created a CC from 01.01.2014 to 31.12.2015
    If you want to have the Validity from 01.01.2013 now, create the CC from 01.01.2013 to 31,.12.2013 from KS01
    If you want to extend the validity till 31.12.9999, again do the same.. KS01 -> Create from 01.01.2016 to 31.12.9999
    If you want to shorten the validity i.e. say, You want the CC to be valid from 01.01.2015 instead of 2014, then you can delete the CC from KS04 for 2014 provided no data is posted (plan or actual)
