Combine query, result from another query on SAP BI query Universe?

Hello all,
We are using SAP BI queries as datasource for our universes. Is the combined query option disabled for webi reports written on such universes?
result from another query - is this option active for such webi reports? I see both these options greyed out so wanted to check.
One last thing what is really difference between subquery and results from another query? subquery - you can use filters from that one data provider only right? or can you use a different data provider/report in sub query?
Thanks a lot for all the replies.

Hi,
in BO 3.1 Combined query and result from another query options are not available in webi report on OLAP Universes (SAP BW Universe.)
Thanks,
Amit

Can we use Result from another query in Webi using Bex uery universe?

Hi,
Can we use Result from another query filter option in Webi to create a report using a Bex Query universe?
I need to create a report using two universes, one is Bex Query Universe and the other is Orcle universe. I have two queries, one is using Oracle universe; the other using Bex Query universe. I need to pass the Oracle data from the Oracle query to the Bex Query query to get the matched data from SAP Bex query.
I used Result from another query in the query filter panel for the query using Bex query universe. But I got an error saying that 'A filter contains a wrong value. you cannot run this query. (Error: WIS 00007). The data used in the filter on both sides are the same. they are char.
I have tested by using two queries from the same Bex query universe to see if the Result from another query filter option works. And I got the same error.
Has anyone run into the same issue and if this is possible and what should be the solution?
Thanks in advance!

In that situation:
Create two queries : Oracle and BW query.
@ Report:
As you have to see result set from both the Dataproviders, correct? To achieve thise one must have common dimension objects to merge them at report and use Objects those are coming from both queries to use them in single Table/Report.
Unless you don't use Merge Dimensions, you don't get a chane to use both queries objects in single Table/Report. (It will give tooltip saying: You can't drop here -- Incompatable Objects)
In case, if you don't have common dimensions, change object definitions to Detail objects, for those required.
Hope it helps you.
Thank You!!

Query on results from another query

Post Author: Duncan1980
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Is it possible to query on the results from another query. I have a query that produces a list of document numbers. I want to use the output from that query as the filter criteria in a another query in the same Universe.
The output from the first query can be as much as 2000, so it would be very time consuming to cut and paste these into a filter.
Both reports are built, but can not figure out how to link the first report output to the filtering criteria on the second report. I
I am using business objects XI release 2 web intelligence 11.5.3.417 enterprise.

Hi Vivek,
It was not directly solved but I applied alternate logic to over come the issue.
Here's what I did to overcome:
I used a sub query in place of the whole result from another query.
For Ex:
Dim1 inlist result from another query1
I made it as
Dim1 inlist (Dim0)
where Conditions.
Here Dim0 is the object which we use for Result from another query and Conditions will be the necessary filter conditions to arrive proper Dim0. Make sure proper context is formed for the sub query.
Even though it resolved my problem, It introduces an new issue. It causes increase in query run time when huge set of data is returned from sub query.
Please let me know if i haven't explained clearly.
Hi Aris_BO,
Sorry for not responding earlier. The logic would probably make more queries null & not null. Thats why I was not advised to use it.
Thanks

Results from another Query - not available

HI,
My environment is Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2 Edge series , i have below quereis with web Intelligence Reports
1. not available the functions/options Results from another Query(Any) or Results from another Query(ALL) at Query Level.
2. not getting list of Values for pronpt until i refresh values for prompt?
Please suggest me is there any fix packs available for the same to availle that functionality.
Best Regards,
Reddeppa K

not getting list of Values for pronpt until i refresh values for prompt?
There is option called "Automatic refresh before use" for the object properties available in the universe designer.
Please check the box for the object you are using for populating the list of values and export the universe.
not available the functions/options Results from another Query(Any) or Results from another Query(ALL) at Query Level.
There is a limitation for the query on query functionality that the both the queries can-not be from the OLAP universe.
I guess the query which needs to be filtered should be built on universe from the relational data base.

Issue with Results from Another Query (Error on Null value)

Hi All,
We have a WebI report using "Result from Another Query" option of BO XI R3.1. The report was running fine till recently the dimension object using result from another query had a null value. Report suddenly throwed error as the query filters are invalid.
Is there a way to make this filter optional if no data/null value is there ? Because we need those null values in report as well.
Thank you for your time.

So in Sales Out query i am using the option Results from another Query. The Chain values are in Unicode format.
Though in universe i have Set Parameter Unicode_String ='Yes', this does not get applied when using option Results from another Query.
Is there any solution to resolve this problem.

Search criterias in one page, the query results in another page?

Hi, can I put search criterias in one page, and get query results in another page?
Need help
Thanks in advance
karman

If you meant a situation like: Page 1 has some items and page 2 has a report which refers page 1 itemsThen your report _query would fetch proper results provided the page 1 item values are available in the session_.
That is, after submitting their values(using page submit,dynamic action,ajax etx) to session state , their values would be available in any page (anywhere in that session ) , until the page cache for the item page(page 1) is cleared.

How to send query results from BW to R/3 abap program

Hi,
I have to bring in query results from BW into a abap program written in R/3...can anyone help me on how to accomplish this(BW to R/3) please...i was thinking if reporting agent or broadcasting should help but i dont know how to get started.
Please help.
Thank you so much.

Hi Vijay,
As i know, you can send data from BW to Flat file or into any table in BW or to BW application server only.
You need 3rd party to send data to different server.
You can use
1. Tcode : RSCRM_BAPI to download query values/results into a table or into a flat file. OR
2. You can use Infospokes to generate files from ODS/CUBE/master data objects to flat files(local/application server) or to a table.
3. Using information broadcasting we can send mail(dont know much options), but i dont think generation of file possible.
You need to trnasfer generated file from BW to R/3 and load into R/3 using BDC or LSMW(if data is low).
I think, you can also use RFC function modules to read data from BW to R/3, plz check with ABAPer.
Hope it Helps

How to use Results from Another Query for SAP BW universes

Hi Everyone,
I have two SAP BI universes.In my First universe I have Sales Doc no (dimension) and Orderqty (Measure) and in my second universe I have Sales Doc no(Dimension) and BillQty (Measure).
Here in my first dataprovider I have 1200 rows of data and in second dataprovider I have 75,000 rows. The report should fetch only the BillQty details that matches to corresponding Sales doc no in first data provider.
I want to place all these fileds into a single report like as shown.
(Datarpovider1) (Datarpovider1) (Datarpovider2)
*Sales Doc No* Orderqty BillQty
Here I am able to generate single report using merge dimension but it is leading to performance issues. I want to restrict the values at query level by passing the First dataprovider Sales doc no to second Data provider Sales doc number using Results from Anothery Query feature so that It can fetch only the matching records.
I tried it but it was giving the follwing error:
A filter contains a wrong value. You cannot run this query. (Error: WIS 00007)
How Can I get rid of this error. Can we use Results from Anothery Query option for OLAP universe. Are there any limitation on it.
All this I am doing in Webi Rich Client.
Appreciate your help
Thanks &in Advance

Hi Kiran,
I think the filter has a wrong operand. For example, a filter with an empty constant, or a filter that deals with numeric values is defined with an alphanumeric value.Check out for this.

Filter by "Result from another query" option not available in Webi

Hi all
I am trying to filter one query by zipcode based on the results of a previously run query in the same report. However this option is not available on the drop down when I drag zipcode into the filter pane. I am restricted to the options: Constant, Value(s) from a list, Prompt or Object.
I have "use subqueries enabled" within my universe and the data is held in an RMDBS (i.e. it is not an OLAP universe) so I expected this functionallity to be available.
I am using XI 3.2 and Java version 1.6.0.15, i.e. up to date.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Sharon

Sharon,
Here is one method to achieve your objective, however, it involves the use of Merge Dimensions. Here goes:
In the Edit Query mode, build two queries, where the first query has all the objects, to include Zip code, and the second query has the zip code, filtered for the one at hand. (you probably have done this portion already)
In the Edit Report mode, think of your data set as Query1 (all the data objects you want) and Query2 (zip code and filtered on that zip code) and thus you'll have Query1.zip and Query2.zip. If you build a grid containing all the data you want from Query1, then simply add Query2.zip to that grid, voila, the grid will be "filtered" due to the "merge" that occurs under the wire. The 'problem' here is that you have two columns that are repetitive and there is no inherent way to "hide" a column in WebI other than masking the column with white on white (font/borders) or some folks sometimes apply Alterters to achieve the same.
Best of luck in moving forward with your task.
Thanks,
John

Getting query results from a PL/SQL procedure

Hi! So, I’m a little stumped and I can’t seem to find the answer to what I believe is probably a simple question…
So, here goes… I have a big ol’ union query that I use to create a report on a page, it’s about 25k – not over the 32k limit, but fails to be able to compile every time (I always get a 400 – Bad Request error). I’m not sure why this is happening, but I can remove a union statement and it compiles just fine – so it has something to do with the size of the query. ANYWAY – I’ve resolved that I should put this bad boy into the database as a stored procedure and just call it from Apex, my problem is I can’t figure out quite how to do this with variables, etc.…
Instead of giving you my whole big query, I’ll use the emp table as the concept is the same:
Say we have a query that creates a report on a page:
select empno, ename, job, mgr, hiredate, sal, comm, deptno
from emp
where job = :P_JOB
and hiredate >= :P_HIREDATE;
How would I take this query, create it as a stored procedure on the db, pass the variables from Apex and return the query result set from the stored proc as a report?
I really appreciate any help on this!
Best,
Gilcrest

Hi Gilcrest,
You should create the query as a View and use the view name and the WHERE clause in the report's sql source.

Query Builder problem - query results from previous query

Hi.
I have a 100% repeatable problem in Oracle Query Builder (Version 6.0.7.1.0) where some rows from the results of a previous query appear in the results for the current query. The queries being run are saved in *.brw files. If I close down Query Builder completely between queries, there is no problem. If I run one query, export the results to a CSV file, close that query and then open a second query, when I run the second query there are rows in the results that shouldn't be there (they are remnants of the first query). Interestingly the total number of rows for the second query is correct, so the same number of rows are missing as shouldn't be there. Anyone come across this before? Problem is repeatable for different database users and on different computers.
regards,
Martin

as i posted earlier .. queryBuilder as a stand alone product is neither supported nor available anymore. it is only available as part of the report data wizard.
thanks,
