Common Global Prompt on DashBoard for all WebI Reports

Common Global Prompt on DashBoard for all WebI Reports
Is it possible to have a common prompt on the Dashboard. Which passes these variables/prompts to other WEBI reports show on the dashboard
Most of the financial WEBI reports have common prompt (year and period)
If I select or enter two common prompt can this be passed to all the webi reports shown on that DashBoard.
Thanks & Regards
Ishaq

Hi,
You cannot achieve this using WEBI alone. You will have to use Xcelsius with WEBI to achieve this. In XI R3.1 you can use the content linking feature on the dashboard to link a Xcelsius Analytic with multiple WEBi reports. You just need to pass prompts to the Xcelsius Analytic and all the corresonding reports will recieve that value. There are several possibilities with this and i have just stated one. Hope that helps.

Hi,
I had opening CMC with Administrator Account.Due to some reasons i want to "Block EDIT option" for all WEBI Reports.Just Viewing is sufficient.In the same way for Universe"Blocking EDIT object option".Instead of Administrator guide reference (chap no 18 &19)option.Could you help in steps resolving issue.Thanks in advance.

Swapna.

Hi Swapna,
You could perform the following steps:
1. Login to CMC.
2. Go to Folders >> Manage >> Top Level Security
3. Click on Add Principal and add the user or group for which you have to set the security.
4. Click on assign Security >> Advanced tab >> Add/Remove Rights.
5. Select Content >> Web Intelligence Report
6. assignt "Edit Object" right as denied and click on apply ok.
This would help you to block edit option for only webi reports and all the webi reports in your environment.

How to create @prompt filter at universe level for my Webi reports

Dear all,
I am using BO XI 3.1 SP3 with SAP BW 7.0.
I have created an open[big] query based on a multiprovider for my OLAP universe.
OBJECTIVE: to create LOV prompts for Calender year, for my webi reports, which takes 2010 as input then offsets the input year and then shows Gross sales for the prompt year [2010], 2009 & 2008.
ISSUE: if 2010 is selected in webi prompt filter, then it doesn't display any data for any other year, lets say gross sales for 2009.
ALTERNATIVE: i tried to create a prompt filter in the universe with this syntax,
<FILTER KEY="@Select(Calendar year\Calendar year).[TECH_NAME]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Enter year','N',,Mono,Free,Not_Persistent)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
it worked fine. but i also want to create a measure or dimension which subtracts 1 from the above filter and return a result with a previous year.
e.g
PROMPT: 2010
PROMPT-1: 2009
Universe structure
[TIME]                         class
[Calender year]        class
     [Calender year]     dimension ( type:string)
Please guide me with correct procedure and syntax.

masood44 ,
I think you should just prompt for year and capture and use the selection at the webi report level.
say you have calendar year(convert it into numeric) prompt at webi level. say user selects 2010 capture it in a variable var1:userresponse('enter year'). then create a variABLE (var2) with formula :
if(isPromptAnswered('enter year')='yes';([year] where year inlist(var1;var1-1;var1-2);null)
build your report with var2 and gross income

I am having major problems with Firefox. About 3 weeks ago I started experiencing the display only when on Firefox for all web site, that the display would be shifted right about half a screen. It only happens on Firefox and happens for all web sites.

Combining 2 BEx queries into 1 for 2 WebI reports for different 0CALYEAR

Hi all,
I have the following requirement in BEx Query designer:
I have two queries with 0CALYEAR infoobject in each.
One query shows me the data of last 5 years and the other does not have any such condition, it shows me full data.
I need to build a combined query based on these 2 queries.
This combined query shall be used for 2 WebI reports:
- 1 report showing the user, data for last 5 years
- 2nd report showing full data
Is it possible to handle this, without giving any date selection prompt for the user on the WebI report.
If so, please let me know how.
Thanks and Regards,
Srilakshmi

You have many options available. You can use structures and/or cells in your single query to present one set of data for "5 years" and one set of data for "Forever". You can simply create the query using selection columns to limit one column to 5 years and one data to 'full data'.
However... I always strongly advise my users to never, ever, ever create a query for 'everything'. You have no idea what the future will hold in terms of data volume. Creating an unlimited query will only produce performance issues and sadness. Users NEVER actually need 'all the data'. They just think they do. It's part of your job to keep them from creating requirements that they will regret later on.

Retries for a Webi Report

Hello,
last week we discovered the possibility to set an automatically retry for our Webi Reports in the CMC.
Today we discovered a malfunction.
The first run of the Webi Report failed but the second one succeeded.
The Excel Export is wrong. It looks like, that BO is using an old layout to create the Excel Export.
We will just have this problem, if the first run fail.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thank you for your help!
Best
Jan

Hi Sathish,
thank you for the quick answer.
New Style:
You can see the beginning of the first sheet and the names of the other sheets.
We use this format nowadays.
Old Style:
Here you can see same things. The beginning of the first sheet and the names of all sheets.
Everytime the first run failed we get an export in the old format.

I didn't test this but it should work. Import required packages.

String username = "administrator";
String password = "<password>";

String authtype = "secEnterprise";
IEnterpriseSession oEnterpriseSession = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr().logon(username, password, cmsname, authtype);
IInfoStore oInfoStore = (IInfoStore)oEnterpriseSession.getService("","InfoStore");
getWebi(oInfoStore,0,out);
oEnterpriseSession.logoff();
%>
<%!
public void getWebi(IInfoStore oInfoStore, int sourceFolderID, javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter out)

Variant for a Web Report

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there was a way of creating a variant for a web report, the way we can create one for a BEx report. I would like to be able to store the variable values in a variant and then select one of the avaialable ones.
Thanks,
Doniv

The save as view functionality does exist in BW 3.x. The only difference is that it is not available as a web item. There is a template named 0publishing_template. This has the save view option available. The other way is directly from the Web Application Designer. Go to Tools --> View Definition --> Select either based on a query or based on another query view. Once this is done you can either create another web template with the view as your dataprovider or you can create a hyperlink in the role menu and use a URL like this:
http://servername/sap/bw/BEx?sap-language=EN&bsplanguage=EN&CMD=LDOC&TEMPLATE_ID=0query_template&data_provider_id=technical name view.
One thing to note is that views will save the variable entries. You can add VARIABLE_SCREEN="X" to force the display of the variable screen. To change the values in the variable screen add VARIABLES_CLEAR="X".
Hope this helps.

How to deploy one common filter for all web applications

I want to deploy a filter for all the web applications i have running on weblogic server. I don't want to deploy the filter just within a specific web
context, was able to achieve this on tomcat as it provides a common web.xml
which will apply to all web apps. But i don't know how to achieve this on Weblogic. Your help would so much appreciated.

Thanks Vidyut! You've answered my question.
I placed the jar file in the $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib directory. But where should I place the taglib TLD file? And how should I reference it in web.xml?
Currently, my web.xml is as follows and it doesn't work.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>http://abc.com</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>c:\Tomcat\shared\lib\mytags-taglib.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
</web-app>
Thanks again!

Make a jar file availlable for all web application at deployement time

Hi !
Is there a way to make a jar file availlable to all web application included in a .ear file. I know that i can manually copy the jar under (OC4J_HOME)/j2ee/home/lib , but can i create a package that have those web application ( lets say 4 ) and also the common jar file, deploy the that .ear file and make my jar file automatically availlable for all the deployed web application ? or is there a special command that i can use to copy that jar to the (OC4J_HOME)/j2ee/home/lib while deploying the .ear file ?
i tried adding a manifest file with the classpath option but this seem to work only with jsp...
thanx for your audience...

Open the file %J2EE_HOME%/applcation-deployments/your-app/orion-application.xml. Add a tag like the one below:
<library path="location_of_my_library.jar" />
This will make the JAR availible to only your application, and the modules within it, and no others.
