Changing BW report title

Dear all expert,
My user request me to change the BW report title. I changed the description at Query Properties, but when i run the report, the title still remain as old title, but if i refresh the query, it will only update the query title to the new title.
Can i know how to solve this problem.
Thank for help.

Hi Mate,
You better dont disturb that query which you want to changes the desc. better you copy the query to a new name in query designer. and execute the new one.Assign points if it is useful.
good day.
Thanks and regards

  • Change the report title to more meaningful title? How to achieve it?

    Hi Guys,
    We have some BI reports which the users runs from BEx analyser. Currently the report title shows the names of the reports. For example a Sales by products reports has the title SALES BY PRODUCT REPORTING.
    What we want to do is these reports have selection screen and based on what the user selects on the selection screen we want the report title to be more meaningful. For example if the report is run for the period 1 and company code ABC selected on the selection screen then the report title must show SALES BY PRODUCT FOR PERIOD 1 AND COMPANY CODE ABC.
    My questions is how to show the variable in the report title? I am new to BI and need help on the same. We are on 7.1 version of BI.
    Cheers
    VJ

    Hi,
    We have done the same but in my case the input Month will display.
    Eg: We have MM reports which will run Period wise, so user wil give 001.2009, in the report title it will display...
    Stocks report for 001.2009.
    Using Text Variable we can do it.
    Steps;
    1. Create a Text Variable with Customer Exit option.
    2. Take the user input value and pass into Custome exit Variable.
    For Sample Code, you can see one blog and some Articles.
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/Surendra+Reddy
    See the blog "Using Text Variables with Customer Exits in Report Headings" and see Customet Exit articles..
    WHEN 'ZT_C'.   " ZT_C = Text variable with customer Exit
        IF i_step = 2.
          LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range WHERE vnam = 'ZMONTH'.  " ZMONTH = User input variable on 0CALMONTH
            IF sy-subrc = 0.
              CLEAR: l_s_range.
              zsmy = loc_var_range-low.
              zemy = loc_var_range-high.
              zsmnth = zsmy+4(2).
              zemnth = zemy+4(2).
              zfyear1 = zsmy+0(4).
              zfyear2 = zemy+0(4).
              CONCATENATE zsmnth '.' zfyear1 INTO zsmnyr.
              CONCATENATE zemnth '.' zfyear2 INTO zemnyr.
              l_s_range-low+0(7) = zsmnyr.
              l_s_range-low+9(2) = 'To'.
              l_s_range-low+13(7) = zemnyr.
              l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
              l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
              APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
            ENDIF.
          ENDLOOP.
        ENDIF.

  • Renaming a report title

    Post Author: saman700
    CA Forum: .NET
    Hi experts,
    I need to deploy some report files to the BO server but before, I need to find out if any report with the same title already exists inside the server and if there's any, i need to rename it's title (the old report's title)  so that I don't overwrite it. (rename it to something like report_bckup. Manually, I have to open CMC, go to folder, choose the folder I am about to deploy my report files too and look to see if a report with the same title exists. In case it exists, I need to change thte title and update the report.
    Is there anyway that I can change the report title throuhg program. I saw that I can do it by myReportDocument.Summaryinfo.ReportTitle but I need to load the report first and to do it, I need to give it the report path which i am unable to find out. I saw that myReport.ReportFileName might do it but I can't get it to work. I know how to Add or Delete reports but is there a way to rename a report's title that is in BO server with SDK? Thanks

    Hi gainesvillepratt,
    After testing the issue in my local environment, we should add a textbox with title value above the matrix. Changing the Width of textbox with the same size as the rendered the matrix Width (Row Groups area width + Column Groups area width * the number of
    columns in column group), then setting the TextAlign property to Center in the Properties Windows pane. Thus we can achieve your requirement.
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • Passing report name as report title

    Using Desktop Publisher for Word and a standalone BIP Enterprise version, is it possible to pass the report name to the rtf template so that it could be used as the report title?
    This feature would be useful when there are multiple reports (different names and slightly different queries/criteria) that use the same templates. We could then dynamically change the report title based on the report name.
    Thanks,
    Haresh

    Haresh,
    I'm not sure if there is any simple way to print report name in rtf template.
    But there is a work around. Follow below steps...
    1>create parameter called Report_Name in every report
    2>put default value for that parameter as report name (Title)
    3>select parameter type as Hidden
    Now in rtf template.
    <?param@begin:Report_Name?>
    <?$Report_Name?>

  • Interactive Report - Alternative Report Title!

    Hello,
    I have a tricky requirement. I created an interative report and saved as primary report. then I created several alternative reports with different selection criteria. Now, I want to have a report title depending on the report the user selects, it may be primary and alternative 1, alternative 2 etc.,
    Can anybody suggest how to change the report title name dynamically?
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks --

    What type of region type are you using for your interactive report?  Maybe the region type does NOT support a title..

  • Change the Page Title for all the pages when viewing the Reports in Bi Publisher

    Hello ,
    I have a requirement for changing the Page Title for all the report displayed pages on the browser window.

    As far as I know, answer is NO.
    it's very simple answer  Manikandan-S-Oracle
    for 1210326 's requirements there are some places for changes of property "title" and in some pages "title" can be different
    "one place or option for changing" does not exist imho ( may be i'm wrong )
    so you can change places for your needs but not sure what it's adequate
    as example
    ...wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\catalog\navigator.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/catalog
    ... wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\home\home.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/home

  • Change "document" to report title in print queue

    Post Author: mroy
    CA Forum: .NET
    When printing from Crystal Reports to a printer, in the print queue, the Document Name is "Crystal Reports - " and the report title.
    When printing using ReportDocument in Visual Basic .NET program to a printer, the Document name is "document".
    Is there a way to change "document" to the report title in code?

    You can only do it using RAS I believe by using the PrintReportOptions objects JobTitle property.
    This is only available using Enterprise or CR XI R2 SP2.

  • Changing Report Title format in Discover 4i Viewer

    I have been reviewing the style sheets for configuring discoverer 4i viewer and have been able to change logos and remove copyrights etc. but I am having difficulty changing the format of the report title. the current title concatinates the discoverer report owner, name and description. ex:
    SYSADMIN.Search_Pending_and_Approved.DIS - Search Deals and Opportunities
    which frankly looks aweful to an end user, much less an external end user (we are pushing reports out to partners via Partner Management partner portal).
    I think that I found the place to change this in the gui objects style sheet, but it appears that there is only one parameter passing this whole thing. Is there a way to just display the description. ex:
    Search Deals and Opportunities
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Dean

    Right click on the date field -> choose textbox properties -> choose number -> choose Date -> and choose the format you want or choose a custom format  "YYYY-MM-DD"

  • Display Report Title line in Printer Queue Again

    Post Author: ShowMeTheName
    CA Forum: General
    Hello, this is my question:
    How can I get our Crystal Reports XI printed from our VB application to show again the line u201CCrystal Reports + The Report Titleu201D in the printer queue?
    We first started generating reports with Visual Studio 2003 and Crystal Reports for VB.Net.  Months later, we upgraded to Crystal Reports XI Developers Edition. 
    When we built our application in VB and CR for VB.Net (v.9?) and printed reports from it, they showed the Crystal Reports line with the report title in the printer spooler.  Now that we upgraded to CR XI DE and compiled our program, the reports only show the line u2018Documentu2019 in the printer spooler.  The report title is gone.
    Does anyone know how to get that report title back?  If we open a report in the Crystal Reports program and we print it from there, we do get that line u201CCrystal Reports u201C and the Report Title in the printer spooler.  However, when we print the same reports from our VB application (and whatever upgrades installed by CR XI), the report title is replaced by a very annoying u2018documentu2019 word.
    We need the report title to show in the printer queue to distinguish our reports. 
    In our VB app, we open the reports as a new ReportDocument and then we print them with the PrintToPrinter code.
    Has anyone else had the same problem? Do you guys think that if we replaced the new report references with the original version will do the trick?
    We donu2019t want to change or eliminate the u201CCrystal Reportsu201D words because I know we canu2019t. What we want is that line back so it can show the report title.  I certainly like that line better than the u201Cdocumentu201D one we get now.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Local timestamp in report title

    Hi
    When i print a discoverer report, the timestamp on the report title(&Datee &Time) is the server time.
    My client is 6 hours seperated from the server.
    Is it possible to change the timestamp based on the user locale?
    I have an Apps mode EUL with Disco 10.1.2.2
    Thanks
    Ariv

    Hi Ariv,
    Its a good question which i have never done,but will give a try it.
    Is it possible to change the timestamp based on the user locale?There is a function in the PL/SQL and Discoverer date function named new_time and the syntax is as follows
    new_time( date, zone1, zone2 )
    Here zone1 and zone2 would be like GMT(greenwich mean time),EST(eastern standard time) and so on.I can give an example on how to go about it.Firstly do a calculation by taking this function it would be something like this
    new_time (to_date ('2003/11/01 01:45', 'yyyy/mm/dd HH24:MI'), 'GMT', 'EST')
    and disable this calculation by unckecking it.In Title section just call it as Timestamp:&calculation1 ,here calculation1 refers to the calculation i asked you to do above.
    Hope this helps you.
    Best Wishes,
    Kranthi.

  • Changing Chart Legend Title

    How do I change a legend title? I created a bar chart using the chart wizard, and the legend title was taken from the name of the column appearing on the Y-axis. I changed the axis label, but this change was not propagated to the legend title. Is there anyway to change the legend title, either directly or through PL/SQL?

    Bill,
    Oracle Graphics allows for the direct access to any object within a Chart via PL/SQL. This can be done either through a number of built-ins or even by traversing the Chart's Object Heirarchy (VGS tree) By getting the handle to the label object it is possible to directly change the text. The Reports Team is correct in that it cannot be done directly from within the Reports Builder (though may be passed as a parameter at run time). Instead create an OPEN_DISPLAY trigger in the Oracle Graphics Builder for the OGD which takes the desired text as a parameter.
    There are examples of getting the handle to a chart opject in the demos & documentation.

    Hi ,Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your forum profile with a real handle instead of "1001804".
    When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
    <li>Full APEX version
    <li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
    <li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
    <li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
    <li>Theme
    <li>Template(s)
    <li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
    With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
    I have an issue here. As per the requirements I need to change the application title in Apex while
    importing it from One instance to another instance.Please clarify what you mean by "application title". The Application Name in the application definition? The displayed Logo in the user interface properties?
    Ex: My application title is WATERFALL PORTAL in iWATERFALL instance ,it must be changed to PUAT PORTAL if im Importing it to PUAT instance.
    This change has to be done Dynamically. Without Entering it Manually.Also clarify what you mean by "instance". An "APEX instance" refers to the APEX installation in a database. The "APEX instance" does not have a specific name property, and would therefore usually be referred to using the database name. Or do you mean the APEX workspace containing the application?
