Changing the report header/footer in SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise X1 3.1

Hi ,
We have SAP BO 3.1. We have a requirement to change the header\footer of all the reports in the system.
I tried the option under Header/Footer Properties --> Appearance , Apply to all reports.
This option does change all the header\footer of all the tabs/pages within a report.
In our environment currently we have around 300 reports. We cannot edit individual report and make changes to the header/footer.
Is there any option through which i can change the header\footer of all the reports existing in the system?
Thanks in Advance

Pavithra P

Dynamically change a Report Heading

I have a report which displays information on cities.
In the customization screen, the user can select the State.
Is it possible to change the Report Heading to reflect the State the user selects?
Thanks, Larry

You could pass the state name that the user selects along with the title string in the query string
url would be something like this
http://your server/ORA_RPT.show?p_arg_names=_title&p_arg_values=the city selected is CITY NAME

How to change the page header?

Hi,
I just installed and started using Plumtree 6.0 a month ago, and we are still in a trial phase for our company's portal.
I want to change the default page header to replace Plumtree logo to my company's logo. I thought I can change it in the style sheet, but I didn't find where to change in the cssmill folder. I found an artical in edocs.bea.com saying I can modify the header by using ALI Publisher, but I don't know what's the right way to do it and faster.
Can someone guide me how to change the page header?
Thank you. (if this is not the correct forum to post the question, please let me know which forum should I go)

Depends on what you want to do. Personally, I'd do a header portlet and not touch the Plumtree/BEA logos. They're likely to be overwritten when the product receives updates.
This may seem like a lot of steps, but really - it goes quickly
** Think through what you want to display. If all you want to do is replace the image, but you wan to keep the overall layout style then you can create a simple replacement header
Step 1 - create a header portlet
=======================
If you're using Publisher...
=====
* Create a new portlet - choose the Header portlet template
* Upload your image / change the header in the rich text editor
If you're not using Publisher
=====
* Personally, static HTML will do just fine - create a folder and html file called something like "mybanner/mybanner.htm" on your remote portlet server
* Plop in an image (you'll want to swipe some adaptive tags for community and page name - can always stick those in later)
* Create a new remote portlet web service that references this HTML page
* Create a portlet from the web service - make sure the type is "header"
Step 2 - turn it on
=======================
* Create a new experience definition (or modify default - I usually create a new one so you can move it between environments)
* In the experience definition's "header / footer" settings area, tell the header to load from the new header portlet you created
* If you created a custom experience definition, modify your experience rules to load this experience defiintion according to whatever parameters you think make sense (just be careful you don't knock out your login page - we usually use security groups to just say "hey - the user is logged in and is, in fact, a member of this portal - that'll still let your login pages load)
Done
May seem like a lot of work, but really it's just a series of simple steps. Advantage here is you can vary things as you see fit and also just feel safe that the next time Plumtree/BEA updates those imageserver files you'll be good to go. From there you can get as fancy schmancy as you like using adaptive tags, etc. Heck - make it a .NET app if you want and do some crazy personalization or something. Embed stock tickers, important news alerts, whatever.
That help at all?
Thanks,
Eric

How to change the column header name dynamically based on sysdate

Post Author: senthi_gokul
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Dear All,
i have designed some reports. i would like to change the column header dynamically based on sysdate. up to 24 months. can u help me, which add month function using the universe. i dont know if-then-else function is having the universe tool or not?

Post Author: prasingh
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Are you saying you are not able to create an object by value (select: statement) as sysdate and put it onto the headers of your report? You can use the add_months() function on the object to add the numbers of months you wish.
Please let me knnow for more.. You can get in touch with me on [email protected] for quick reply.

Changing the Column Header and Hiding the Column dynamically???

Hi friends..
I'm new to OBIEE field. I'm working in a OBIEE project that requires to dynamically change the column header, and dynamically hide the column depending on the prompt value.
I know we can dynamically change the table header using the presentation variable but I couldn't do that same thing with column header.
I searched some forums that suggest to use java script for this purpose but I'm not able to do the same also. If anyone had same issue before please help.

toony, I'm not sure it's possible to do all that you want exactly the way you want, but here are some ideas you can pursue.
To dynamically change column headers without javascript, check this blog out...
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dynamic-column-headers-using-presentation-variables-sets-and-conditional-formatting/
As far as dynamically hiding a column, I don't think you can do this, but since you don't provide any details on how the PV is supposed to hide a column based on the value, are you talking about hiding a column for one PV value and another (different) column for a different PV value? Or are you talking about hiding one column when a PV has certain values and displaying it when the PV has a different set of values?
I have managed to create both scenarios via a work-around, but the procedures require some writing so I don't want to put both. Please detail how you want your PV to "hide" a column or columns.
P.S. I don't think column selectors will do the trick for you. Basically column selectors work like this: Say you have a report using Sales Region ID, Region Name, and Sales. Now let's say you want the user to choose if he/she wants to see annual sales, or quarter sales or weekly sales, etc. The column selector view would allow you to put the various columns (Year Sales, Quarter Sales, Weekly Sales) as an option the user can select. Once selected, the sales figure will change for the time period selected. For an example of how this is done, check out the section in this "Oracle by Example" link.
Waited too long to publish this... Madan beat me to it, so there is some overlap here...

Change the column header according to the filter value ?

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement in which the customer wants to change the column header of the Sales Volume Key Figure to change according to the filter selected for the Calender Year / Month in the Free characteristics.
I could display the header as 'Sales Volume for OCT 2000' as this is the value restricted intially in the free characteristics for Calender Year / Month.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks,

Ioan Thanks for the reply.
Probably my previous explanation of the problem was a little incomplete. Let me give a better description.
The situation is something like this.
I have a requirement in which the customer wants the column header to reflect the 'keep filter value' restriction that he does dynamically in the query report.
i.e:
-- usually the kf column header shows 'sales volume'
-- column header with text variable of the Calender year / month variable -- 'sales volume for 2000 oct'
-- but when the report is run, if the user wants to go and change the filter: calender year / month > rt clk > keep filer value > select Jan 2003.
The kf column header still shows 'Sales Volume 2000 Oct'
How to make the column header change to 'sales volume for Jan 2003' ?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Bex Variable Value as Text in the report heading

Hi
We have fiscal year as a Bex variable and the user is prompted to enter a value when running the report.
I have found that it is possible to add a filter to a report text box (Cell) by creating a formula and adding this to the cell contents.
However, is it possible to add a Bex variable to display as text in a report header. For example the user enters Fiscal Year = 2012 and the report header displays "Headcount for 2012".
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ian

Hai

How to change the page Header background colour in a Theme

Hello,
I want to know how to change the page header background colour. If you are in the Editor I don't find a property where to change it.
If you are in the Theme Editor in the header bar I want to change stands <b>Theme Editor</b>. This (in my case blue colored bar) I want to change in another color.

Hello Radhika,
thanks for your answer. Where do I find the option for the pageheader in System Administration>Portal Display>Theme Editor ->IView Trays exactly?
The pageheader is a picture, which must be uploaded for the web dynpro. Why should any webdynpro element in the ivew tray. There is no relationship between these two parts.
I have not found any option to change the web dynpro pageheader. Could there any extra theme editor for webdynpro?
Thanks.

How to change the field length in standard sap program.

Hi All,
How to change the field length in standard sap program.
Urgent
Example:
Text1 type c length 75,
To change :
Text1 type c length 150,
Point will be rewarded..
Thank you,
Vikram.C

If the only solution is to change the sap standard program, simply change the program, it will prompt for an access key. This key can be retrieved in the SAP support portal (service.sap.com) at keys and requests, sccr keys, register object.
Sometimes these actions are outsourced to a competence center, so maybe youre not entitled to do this, in any case ask a resident senior developer for support.

Outbound Plain HTML Adapter how to change the html-header field "host"?

Hello,
I'm using XI 3.0 SP11 and want to transmit a message to a business partner using the Plain HTML Adapter.
My problem is now that I need to change the default Html-Header field "host" because it seems that the adapter engine is converting it to lower case and is attaching the port-number which is causing trouble with the loadbalancer/applicationserver of our business partner.
I tried to set the appropriate http-header value in the communication channel configuration, but the adapter engine is ignoring this value.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Hi Sascha,
unfortunately the Plain HTTP adapter is not running in the J2EE, therefore you cannot extend the functionality with an adapter module.
I am not sure to understand the problem right. Why do you need to change the HTTP header? What is in it in your case and what should be?

Stefan

Question on changing the report template to display the images

I am trying to change the report template so that each table cell will display an image and a checkbox for the image. The column templatet for the new report template is like this:
<td #ALIGNMENT# headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t17data">
<table>
<tr height="90%"><td>
<img src= "&F101_GET_THUMB.#COLUMN_VALUE#" onmouseover="return onmouseover_img('#COLUMN_VALUE#');">
</td></tr>
<tr height="10%"><td align="center" valign="bottom">
<input type="checkbox" name="f01" value="#COLUMN_VALUE#"/>
</td></tr>
</table>
</td>
My questions are:
1. If the #COLUMN_VALUE# is null, the table cell will display a broken image icon and a checkbox. How could I avoid this? I could add condition to this template, such as when #COLUMN_VALUE# is not null, but how to refer to the value of #COLUMN_VALUE# in pl/sql?
2. I want to always put the checkbox at the center bottom, but no matter what I set "align='center' valign='bottom', it is always close to the image. Since the image sizes are different, the appearance of the checkbox are just up and down. How to fix this?
Thanks,
Fengting

hello,
at designtime the elements from the template are physically
imported into the report. the only way of re-applying a template

Hi,
There is no std user-exit for this (at least we haven't found it as well).
We have created implicit enhancement point implementation athe the end of form AUFRUF_USER_EXIT in include MF02DFEX.
The code should be similiar to following:
ENHANCEMENT 1 YEDSD_EO_ADD_DOC_PREFIX.    "active version
    DATA:
      ltp_doc_prefix TYPE y_dt_docpref.
*--only in creation and change mode
    IF T020-AKTYP = 'H' OR
       T020-AKTYP = 'V'.
      CONCATENATE kna1-ktgrd kna1-kunnr INTO ltp_doc_prefix.
      kna1-yydocpre = ltp_doc_prefix.
    ENDIF.
ENDENHANCEMENT.
