Connect data from BI query to Speedometer

Dear all,
I am working with Design Studio 1.3 and have installed the SDK which contains amongst others the speedometer.
I want to set the needle position (= Indicator position) dynamically based on the result of a BI query.
So far I have noticed there is no “Data Binding” or “Events” in the property section of the speedometer component. Is there a way to connect this component with a datasource or BI query? Any idea would be great.
Best regards,
Stefanos from Munich/Germany

Hi Stefanos,
Is there any commands which let's you update the value through scripting?
if there is you can use teh DS_1.getData() function(s).

Transfer Data from a Query to DSO

Hello,
I have an APD to transfer data from a query to a 'Direct update DSO'. The execution of this APD times out since the volume of query data is very high.
Is there an alternate way of transfering data from a query to DSO?
Please suggest.
Thanks!

One way would be to extract the data from the existing cube using a function module that would mimic the query level filters and restrictions. That data can be populated into the new cube.
I wud suggest u take the data from a non-aggregated layer (say a DSO below the cube).
Also, check for the possibility of running the APD in multiple runs by using some kind of selection that would sum up to give u the whole data required.
Can u confirm if ur query itself is getting timed out?

No data from BW-Query in BO-tools

Hello all
On a newly installed BO XI 3.1 with the SAP integration kit I cannot get data from my existing BW queries.
For example, if I start Xcelsius and add my BW-system as connection I can get the structure of the query (headings) but no data is displayed, neither in the connection's preview tab nor in the web preview.
The same happens if I create a QaaWS on this BW-query - I see the query headings, but not the actual data.
The query shows data if I open it directly in my web browser and it's a really simple one: no variables, no extras, only a few columns and rows.
I use SAP BW 7.01 SP6, XI 3.1 12.3.3 and XCelsius 2008 5.3.4
In SAP BW my user has SAP_ALL as well as BOE Admin & Content producer roles.
I'm relatively new to BO products so I have no idea where to start looking for the cause. Please help!

Hi
After I found the document "Using Xcelsius 2008 with SAP NetWeaver BW" (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10ad2489-8956-2d10-f8ab-ed4cce2766da?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true) and followed the steps it works.
It seems as if the error was not in the system but in front of it - a typical case of RTFM, although the manuals are not always easy to find.
sorry & thanks.

Get data from bw query to r/3

Hi,
There is a query defined in BW with some variables. The current process is user is executing the query with necessary variables and the query result output is saving as csv file and this file is used in r3 to update the data in r3.
Now we have to make this process automate. We have to get the query result data from BW to R3.
We have a constraint of not using the Open hub method in BW.
Is there any function module or any standard program to get the query result data from BW to r3.
Any help is highly appreicated.

Need to return data from a query in different ways - Please help

We are using 10g R2
I have a proc as follows that has a query with over 100 values in the select clause:
proc one( input param1, input_param2,.... output_cursor )
as
begin
open cursor for
select ...about 100 values with most of them being calculated
from table1, view 1, table2, table 3, view 2 ...
where ....
and table1.col1 = input param1
and table1.col2 = input param 2
and view1.col5 = input param5...
end;
I need to return the data that comes from the above query in different formats, columns for a report would be different from columns for screen A and different for screen B. I need only certain columns for a report and different set of columns for another screen. I have wrapper procs that get different input params. From the wrapper procs I intend to call the above proc but would like only selected values.
How can I accomplish this? Since my main goal is to select different columns for each wrapper I was thinking of insert the data from the above proc into global temp table and selecting whatever columns and order I want from the wrappers.
What do you think? Any other solutions?
Thanks

You need to clearly separate roles and responsibilities. The PL/SQL code that creates and supplies a cursor handle is server code tasked to supply data. The code that makes the call for server data, is responsible for formatting and rendering that data.
Thus moving data formatting into the server code needs to be question. Simple example. Cursor does not return invoice date as a date - but formats it into a string using TO_CHAR().
This works for client1 - as that is the date format expected. However, client2 has different International settings and specifies a different date format. Invoice date, formatted into a string by the server, now renders in the wrong format on client2.
Server code should not be concerned with rendering and formatting of data send to a client.
As for the idea to use a global temp table is ..., well to put it nicely, it smells. Badly.
The single most expensive operation on a database platform is I/O. And now you want to read server data and write it to temporary storage, and the read data from temporary storage to return to the client? What on earth for!? Why purposefully increase the size of the I/O workload? Why decrease performance and undermine scalability?
Provide a proper abstraction interface to the client. Enable it to specify (as simplistically as possible) what it wants ito data. There are a number of ways to design and implement this in PL/SQL. Simplistic example:

Fetching data from BW Query

I'm looking for a link to sample code to fetch a record from BW query by passing PO NUMBER as parameter and then putting results into ADO Dataset. I'm trying to avoid using MDX Queries. Maybe someone else has asked this question?

Dear
there are many factors that can play in this, starting from proper Sizing, proper tuning of APS and WPS servers to configuration of Java app server used, network between BI servers and data sources and even report design.
This sort of question have been asked before in this forums, there are also SAP KB articles on sizing, performance and other areas that are part of this question.
I'd start here :

Combining data from SQL query

Hoping there is a SQL guru out there that can help me with this
I have two tables that I want to pull data from and display a report, based on a particular date range, for this example let's say 08/01/2011 to 08/31/2011
In one table there would be an affiliate ID - AFF_UID and also the date and a counter for that date, IMP_COUNTER , now there may only be a few records not every day might be covered, say
TABLE IMP
date,aff_uid,imp_counter
08/01/2011,999,2000
08/02/2011,999,2050
08/20/2011,999,2030
etc
I then have another date, similar set up only there are multiple records in here for a single day, again not all days covered, I would need to total up each row for each day to get a count. So it might be:
TABLE LEAD
date,aff_uid
08/01/2011,999
08/01/2011,999
08/01/2011,999
08/01/2011,999
08/12/2011,999
So we have different dates covered, sometimes the same date, I need the counter from the first table, and from the second table I need to add them up for a total, and then display any date that has a value and put both counter and lead count together
Result from above
date,imp total,lead total
08/01/2011,2000,4
08/02/2011,2050,0
08/12,2011,0,1
08/20/2011,2030,0
I am sure there must be a SQL command that can gel all of this together with some grouping? Last thing I need is a ton of SQL statements in a loop!
My alternative is to add a counter to the IMP table for each lead, so every time I update the lead table with a record, I will also update the counter, but that's unncessary storage of data I already have an an extra update statement that I might be able to do without, but maybe it would make generating reports faster, just pulling to counters with no 'addition' required.
Appreciate any feedback
Thanks
Mark

Well I thought that I had this one up and running, but once it went into production I found that it didn't give the desired results.
I have an account that has 3 'tracking'/aff accounts, so what it's doing is giving out 3 lines for each date rather than join them together into one. The values are also incorrect, I'm still trying to figure out just where it's even getting those numbers, I manually added up the numbers in the dbase and it didn't match
Here's the command
<CFQUERY name="GetStats" DATASOURCE="#datasource#">
SELECT
COALESCE(IMP.imp_date, LEAD.lead_date) AS report_date
, COALESCE(IMP.imp_counter,0) AS imp_counter
, COALESCE(LEAD.lead_count,0) AS lead_count
, COALESCE(LEAD.lead_aff_payment,0) AS lead_aff_payment
FROM
SELECT
imp_date
, imp_counter
FROM impressions
WHERE imp_date BETWEEN #createODBCdate(form_from)# AND #createODBCdate(form_to)#
<CFIF #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_UID,1))# IS "3">
AND imp_aff_uid IN (SELECT aff_uid FROM aff WHERE aff_master_uid = #session.aff_uid#)
<CFELSEIF #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_UID,1))# IS "2">
AND imp_aff_uid = #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_UID,2))#
<CFELSE>
AND imp_aff_uid IN (SELECT aff_uid FROM aff WHERE aff_sub_uid = #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_uid,2))# AND aff_master_uid = #session.aff_uid#)
</CFIF>
) AS IMP
FULL OUTER JOIN
SELECT
lead_date, COUNT(*) AS lead_count, SUM(lead_aff_payment) AS lead_aff_payment
FROM leads
WHERE lead_date BETWEEN #createODBCdate(form_from)# AND #createODBCdate(form_to)#
AND lead_data_status = 1
<CFIF #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_UID,1))# IS "3">
AND lead_aff_uid IN (SELECT aff_uid FROM aff WHERE aff_master_uid = #session.aff_uid#)
<CFELSEIF #ListGetAt(form_aff_UID,1)# IS "2">
AND lead_aff_uid = #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_uid,2))#
<CFELSE>
AND lead_aff_uid IN (SELECT aff_uid FROM aff WHERE aff_sub_uid = #val(ListGetAt(form_aff_uid,2))# AND aff_master_uid = #session.aff_uid#)
</CFIF>
GROUP BY lead_date
) AS LEAD
ON ( IMP.imp_date = LEAD.lead_date )
ORDER BY report_date;
</CFQUERY>

How to refresh report data from bex query (BW) with parameters

Hello,
i hope someone can help me with my problem. I developed an desktop application, which loads (actual state) a report from the local file system. After setting the parameters, the report should be saved as a pdf file. Loading the report into the ReportDocument object and exporting the report to a pdf works fine. Setting parameters (without) a data source too. But now i can't refresh the data in the reports given by a parameter (e.g. time).
I know there are two methods to do this. Push and pull. I want to use the pull method, cause my program should exports different reports and i think it should be easier to handle this with this method.
On my development environment is installed:
Crystal Reports SP 4
MS Visual Studio 2010 (coding with C# .NET)
.NET Framework 4
SAP Integration Kit
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 SP1 - SDK libraries
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 SP1 - Runtime 32 bit
SAP GUI 7.20 (Compilation 3)
The bex query is enabled for external use from ole db for olap. Do i have forget something else?
Here is a part of my code:
        public ReportDocument doPullMethod(ReportDocument crReportDocument)
            TableLogOnInfo crTableLogOnInfo = crReportDocument.Database.Tables[0].LogOnInfo;
            ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo;
            crConnectionInfo.Password = "*******";
            crReportDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(crConnectionInfo.UserID, crConnectionInfo.Password, crConnectionInfo.ServerName, crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName);
            MessageBox.Show(crConnectionInfo.UserID + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.Password + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.ServerName + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName);
            for (int i = 0; i < crReportDocument.Database.Tables.Count; i++)
            //    crReportDocument.Database.Tables<i>.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
                MessageBox.Show("TestConnectivity: " + crReportDocument.Database.Tables<i>.TestConnectivity());
            return crReportDocument;
Cause i'm using only one bex query, i know that the SetDatabaseLogon()-method should bring me the same result as the ApplyLogOnInfo()-method SAP Crystal Reports .NET API Guide
Exists an order which i have to follow? First setting parameter and then set the login informations or backwards? Cause i also get the "Failed to load database information" exception, when i set a parameter and TestConnectivity() returns false.
Do i have to activate the data refresh manually or will be the data refreshed automatically on export?
I searched in this forum (.NET - SAP Crystal Reports) and found only this thread which according to my problem:
[Re: Crystal report connects to BW RFC by .NET;
The question is assumed answered.

Hi Robin,
There is a SAP Integration Kit you need to allow CR to connect to SAP data sources. There isn't one for CR for VS 2010 and I don't believe there are the various extra options available in the SDK, no SDK access to the DB driver.
Possibly, Check the other post, download and run the app Ludek suggested, it will get the connection info for your report using RAS and then plug the output code into your code and see if that works. It should show the crdb_olap dll is the database driver, assuming that is the connection method you used when designing the report.
Pay attention to the database dll in the output from that app and verify it is on your PC in: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86
If that doesn't work then.....
The problem is, CR for VS 2010 ( version 13 ) is the runtime for BOE 4.0 ( version 14 ) which includes the Integration kit drivers on install. There is no standalone install of the database drivers. They are installed with CR 2011, which doesn't have a SDK included, CR for VS 2010 is also the Developer version for CR 2011.
Because of the "custom" connection requirements there is no SDK or access to the BW datasource extra options....
Also note that CR 2008 is not supported in VS 2010, it should work though as long as you stick to 2.0 -> 3.5 framework, no 4.0 Framework support in CR 2008 or BOE 4.0
You may want to try the SAP Integration Kit forum to see if anyone has been able to make this work or contact your account manager to verify if there are any plans to do what you are doing....

Obtaining data from a query

hii everyone
i have a query which i use in a stored procedure
query:='select distinct (to_date(substr(f_file_name, 5, 8), ''yyyymmdd'')) fdate
      from IUC_DAT_MSC'|| vmscid ||'_RAFP where F_FILE_NAME
            like ''%RCPA'|| temps||'%'' and to_date(substr(f_file_name, 5, 8), ''yyyymmdd'') between
            to_date(''' || start_date || ''') and to_date(''' || end_date || ''')
            order BY to_date(substr(f_file_name, 5, 8), ''yyyymmdd'')';the problem is if i give the start and end date as a range(for ex 10 jan 2012,20 jan 2012) i am able to check if
there are any records present for those date..but if i specify the start and end date as same(for ex 10 jan 2012,10 jan 2012),i am unable to check..is there any way in
which we can frame the logic for this..
thanks

Hi User,
to_date(''' || start_date || ''') and to_date(''' || end_date || ''') Here the '10 jan 2012' start_date and end_date you have specified are in character format.
You cannot compare date with character format. It is that you should not compare character date formats
as it gives undesired results.
Always, compare date converting the Character Format to DATE using TO_DATE function.
For Ex:
SELECT *
FROM EMP
WHERE TRUNC (HIREDATE) = TO_DATE ('10 jan 2012', 'DD mon YYYY');Will output records where hiredate date equal to Jan 1 2012.
Here, the HIREDATE is the date field. and TRUNC(HIREDATE) will remove the time from date.
Thanks,
Shankar

Excluding Weekend dates from existing query

I have the following query that returns the average of the total sum between start and end date of a status.
How do I take out the weekend dates so it doesn't include saturday and sunday.?
SELECT TRUNC(AVG( SUM ( (DECODE (status, 'Estimator Notified' ");
,cc.end_date,NULL) - DECODE (cc.status, 'Estimator Notified',cc.start_date,NULL)))),1)
FROM cc_request_status cc
group by cc.request_id

The above solution actually generates each date in a range and tests it for a Saturday or Sunday date. A more efficient solution calculates the weekend days directly by using the following facts:
1) For each whole week in the range the number of weekends days is 2.
2) For the partial week, a function can be made based on the ending day and the number of partial days to calculate the number of weekend days.
The following code uses the above two facts to calculate the number of days in a range excluding weekends:
SELECT NUM_DAYS - (WEEKS*2) -
       CASE WHEN REMAINDER = 0 THEN 0
            WHEN END_DOW = 7 THEN 1
            ELSE
                CASE
                    WHEN END_DOW > REMAINDER THEN 0
                    WHEN END_DOW = REMAINDER THEN 1
                    ELSE 2
                END
       END BUS_DAYS
FROM
    SELECT END_DOW, NUM_DAYS, FLOOR(NUM_DAYS/7) WEEKS, MOD(NUM_DAYS,7) REMAINDER
    FROM
