Cannot open a report I just saved via Save a Dynamic Template

Hi All,
I am on BPC 5.1 SP9, working in Office 2007.
The problem is happen sporadically, where I save a report using Save a Dynamic Template.  Then try to open up the report I just saved, and the report does not open.  Sometimes if I resave the report via Save Dynamic Templates, I can reopen up the report.  If that does not work, I go back into Save Dynamic Template, and save it to a new name, and see if I can get the report to open.
The strange thing is I can save the report to my desktop, then go into BPC.  Every time I open the report from my desktop it always runs.
Not sure if anyone has seen this before?

Does your template have an Excel 2007 4 digit extension? 
There is a known issue with BPC 5.1 sp7 or higher service pack and Excel 2007 format extensions (SAP Note 1347243)
Files with Excel 2007 Extension such as XLSX and XLTX, (saved and opened repeatedly via eTool -> Save / Open Dynamic Templates menu) may have issues where the template will not open.
The problem does not exist with BPC 70M sp3 or higher. 
The note also has a possible workaround; suggesting renaming the template on the File Share Server and then opening the re-named template via Open Dynamic Templates menu.
Hope this helps.

    Hello Michael,
    Thank you for your response.  My operating system is XP.  When I try to open a pfd document I just get a series of letters and symbols in a dialog box.  The top of the box says "select the encoding that makes your document readable".  I can choose Windows, MS-Dos, or other (there is a long list to choose from).  None seem to make a difference.  If I save the document to my desk top I can right click on it and choose an option "Open with  AdobeReader 9" and it opens fine.
    Thank you,

    Hello:
    What operating system does your computer use? What happens when you attempt to open a PDF document rather than saving it first? Please include any/all error messages. Also, have you tried opening documents from other locations or just one in particular?
    Thanks,

  • I have updated to Keynote 6.1, but I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1.

    I have updated to Keynote 6.1, my App Store says I did it 2/1/14, I just created a new slideshow in 6.1 tonight, saved it all the way through while creating it, and when finished, saved it one more time, and closed the file. I treid to open it again, but I get an error message stating I need a newer version of Keynote to open the presentation. I check the "About Keynote", and apparently I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1. I try changing the file to open with 5.3, but it won't do that either! The App Store won't let me re-download it. How do I get 6.1 back??? I need to reopen the file I just created.

    I am finding that when I launch keynote from the Docking Station and it opens Keynote 5.3, so I command Q and close it. I then go to Finder, go to the Keynote slideshow I created in 6.1 and now cannot open, and CAN open the slideshow from Finder, which it actually open the file in Keynote 6.1.
    I emptied my Trash.
    What the heck is up with this???? And how do I fix it??

  • Cannot open "filename" because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0).

    I updated my whole cloud last week. Now I can't open a InDesign document saved just the day before. I get the error message:
    Cannot open “filename” because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0).
    Cannot open “filename” because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.0). You must use that version or later to open the file. To then enable it to be opened in this version, choose save as InDesign CS4 or later, or export to IDML.
    This is a document that I created in InDesign CC just last week.

    Hi Robert,
    To open an INDD file in the older version (CS4-CC), you need to save it as an IDML. For CS3 & older versions, save it as an INX.
    Thanks

  • I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps.  I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of A

    I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps.  I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1). You must use that version or later to open the file." AARRGGHH! So how do I access the file?

    Sounds like you opened and saved it in CC, so now you need to go back to CC and either complete the project there, or export to IDML to take it back into CS6.

  • Cannot open file from Bridge after saving in Photoshop CS3

    I was working on three images in Photoshop CS3, when I went to open them from Bridge for review, two of three files were reduced to tiny white squares with a dogear in the top right corner, a little blue bounding box containing three tinier red green and blue somethings so small I couldn't even see what they were with my jewellery spec.
    Nothing happened when I clicked on them, no error message, nothing. I managed to get one of them in 'reveal' - which opened up a larger blue bounded box with the red button containing a cross with the message 'cannot open as not right kind of file'.
    What to do please? I don't want to spend hours on an image and hope it will open afterwards. Thankyou.

    Thankyou for taking the time to respond. I did notice that I'd forgotten to place a . after the file name and before the extension - ie soiphotopsd, instead of soiphoto.psd, and renamed them and the opened as psds. I would have thought that Photohop CS3 with all it's bells and whistles could have provided a helpful popup/error message to this effect when saving images though!
    I still have an old file I haven't been able to open, the icon of which is simply a small blue and white box with the letters pmg on the bottom. I tried to rename the file same as, but nothing seemed to work so far. Will just keep plugin away - forgive the pun.
    Thanks again.

  • PS CS6 Won't open large TIFF it just saved

    I just saved and closed a large TIFF with a couple of layers.  I thought that it was under 2Gb, but the finder says that it is 2.4Gb.  Now when I try to open it, I get an error message saying that the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.  I get a progress bar that shows it trying to open, then as it gets almost finished, the error dialogue pops up.
    Do I have any recourse to recover this file, at this point?  I will certainly switch the format to PSB if I can get it open, but right now that is looking doubtful.
    Thanks,
    Ron

    Photoshop will save and open TIFF files up to 4 Gig, so that shouldn't be a problem.
    Another application should be able to recover the composite image (since that's always present in TIFF).
    But I'm not sure why the layer data would be failing unless you had a disk corruption problem -- and we haven't had other people report this problem, so it is probably a localized incident.
    You could try opening it in an older version of Photoshop and see if that works.

  • Cannot open pdf attachments anymore without saving them

    I cannot open PDF files that come in as attachments (Adobe Reader 9) I have had this problem for two days. Before the, it was no problem at all. Now, for me to open an attachment, I have to save it first and then open it via My computer or via Adobe Reader and file open. The file association is there, set FOR Adobe Reader to open all pdf files. So what is the problem? It is a time consuming pain to have to save an attachment just to open it.
    Thanks

    thanks for the suggestion...I was sure it was going to work, but it didn't...when I restarted after performing the fix, the problem is still there...

  • Cannot open ACS 5.4 alarm notifcations via URL

    Hi,
    We have configured the ACS 5.4 to send us alarms on Failed authentication on any device.
    When we get the alert the report URL inside the notification does not open via browser.
    Is there anyway that we can configure the ACS 5.4 to open the report URL via an IP address and through FQDN.
    I tried changing the hostname to FQDN, but it does not accept special characters.     

    Hi
    FYI, there are two types of alarms in ACS:
    Threshold Alarms
    Threshold alarms are defined on log data collected from ACS servers that notify you of certain events. For example, you can configure threshold alarms to notify you of ACS system health, ACS process status, authentication activity or inactivity, and so on.
    You define threshold conditions on these data sets. When a threshold condition is met, an alarm is triggered. While defining the threshold, you also define when the threshold should be applied (the time period), the severity of the alarm, and how the notifications should be sent.
    System Alarms
    System alarms notify you of critical conditions encountered during the execution of the ACS Monitoring and Reporting viewer. System alarms also provide informational status of system activities, such as data purge events or failure of the log collector to populate the View database.
    You cannot configure system alarms, which are predefined. However, you do have the option to disable system alarms or decide how you want to be notified if you have enabled them.
    For more information regarding configuration, please go through this link:

  • Cannot import files that I just saved on photoshop

    This is the situation I encounter very often: I get a graphic from a client, I open it on photoshop, resize it, crop it, check transparency and so on, then I save it as a .psd file to work on it on Premiere
    When I open Premiere and select the import function I can see the folder and I can see the file I just saved but Premiere doesn't let me select it to import it. The file shows up on the screen as transparent as if its not possible to select it
    I am attaching a screen shot below to illustrate what Im saying, this is the little screen that shows up when I select import from Premiere. The file I just saved on photoshop in this case is "gmc logo 3" and as you can see its not on full black color but on light gray, and it doesn't let me select it for import
    Now the very weird thing is that to solve this situation I have to go outside Premiere, open the FINDER and find the folder and the file in question, I then select the same file Premiere didn't let me select and then drag it from the outside window into the Premiere timeline, and Premiere DOES take it, it plays well, it works, everything is good but 5 seconds prior Premiere didn't want to read it using the import function
    Ive been working like this since I got my system but as you can imagine is very annoying. It doesn't do it all the time but 50% of the time it does, I haven't been able to see which specific format it does it with, I think it does it more with .psd files but Im not 100% sure its only with .psd files
    Just wanted to know if anybody else has encountered this same situation, maybe its something simpler than I imagine. I have a Premiere CC installed on the new Mac Pro
    Thanks!

    Mark you actually solved the situation I think, and no I hadnt notice that the file in question was the only one without an extension.
    It seems that when I select SAVE AS on photoshop I select the entire original name file (including the extension) and I write the new name (erasing the original extension) so the file doesnt have an extension and when I select import on Premiere then it doesnt let me select it because of that.
    As I mentioend on my original post it was simpler than I imagine, thank you!!

  • Cannot open a report in CrystalReportsXIRelease2

    Hi,
    I am getting the following error message on opening a particular report in "Crystal Reports XI Release 2".. On selecting a report from the file browser I get the message
    "The report could not be opened from Business Objects Enterprise. Possibly the report is on a different BusinessObjects Enterprise system than the one you are currently loggedo nto".(also I cannot see the report in the file repository pane but I can see it when I browse using File-> Open. I open it from the file browser).
    Some reports are opening fine. I think this report used to open witjout any error in "Crystal Report XI" . But after I installed the release2 this issue has started. I donot have the installable for the older verison anymore.
    Can someone please advise why is this issue occuring how to get this resolved?. greately appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Reeti

    Hi Reeti
    Please open those reports from Crystal Reports Designer and publish them (Save in the Enterprise) once again to XIR2.
    Also check the differecne with the reports which are not throwing any errors.
    Hope it helps!!!

  • REPORTS folder does not appear when refreshing dynamic templates

    Hi all,
    I got one issue when refreshing dynamic templates. For one application, the REPORTS folder does not appear under Eexcel folder.
    It works well on my quality environment, but it fails on production server.
    It seems there is no differences in security settings, SP version...
    I already tried deleting Outlooksoft folder, clear and refresh local folder in client options...
    I must miss something but I dont know what to check anymore.
    Any suggestion is welcome.
    Thanks
    Antoine

    Hi Neil,
    I do not have issue with what you mention, everything is ok in Webfolder.
    The problem is in the local folder of every user in My Documents folder.
    There is a folder Outlooksoft there that is refreshed automatically after connecting to BPC.
    Every reports under REPORTS\WIZARDS should be there. Users need to access this folder to open a specific report.
    What is strange is that it looks that it works for some users, but does not work for some other users...
    Might be security settings?

    Rename your Preview Cache. It is in the same location and has the same name as your Lightroom Catalog.  Rename it to catalogname.lrpreviewold and when Lightroom launches, it will rebuild the Preview Cache. 
    Does this allow you to open your catalog?
