Create a Webi report using QAAWS as a data source

Hi Experts,
I am on BO 4.1 SP 3, and using the Webi Rich Client to create a WEBi report using a QAAWS url as a data soruce.
This is the first time I am trying this, so any tips/helpful links are welcome.
I get the below error, when I try to map the fields. But I do not have any personal data files involved.
Thanks,
Vasu Natari.

Hi Vasu,
We can create webi report with QAAWS.When creating the report on webservices /Personal data providers we'll not get prompt/query filters option .
Are you trying to change source ? Instead create new source and get data.

Report using excel sheet as data source not working when deployed to production.

I have a set of SSRS reports that use an excel sheet as a datasource.
Now when I preview the reports or run them in the Visual Studio IDE on my local machine i.e
the development machine, the reports run fine & display all correct results.
However, when we deploy the reports to the Production machine which is on a separate server,
the following error message is displayed :
"The current action cannot be completed. The user data source credentials do not meet the requirements to run this report. Either the user data source credentials are not stored in the report server database, or the user data source is configured not to
require credentials but the unattended execution account is not specified. (rsInvalidDataSourceCredentialSetting)"
I've copy pasted the connection string used for connecting to the excel file as reference :
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\MyFolder\CurrentFile.xlsx;Extended Properties="Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;";
The excel file has also been uploaded to the machine housing the reporting server (i.e to C:\MyFolder location)

Hi Aaakar,
From the error message, please try to change the setting of Credential type for the data source on report manager as follows:
Go to the Data Sources properties page.
For the Connect Using option, select Credentials stored securely in the report server.
In User Name and Password, type credentials that can be used to access the database. If you are using SQL Server as the data source, the user name must be valid for both logging on to the server and for accessing the database that contains the data for
the report.
If the user name and password are credentials for a Windows account, select Use as Windows Credentials.
If you want the report server to pass the credentials of the user accessing the report to the server hosting the external data source, click Windows Integrated Security. In this case, the user is not prompted to type a user name or password.
For more details about Configure Data Source Properties, please see:

Hope this helps.

Create BI Pub report using multiple Answers queries as sources

No answer to this on the BI Publisher forum. Posting here...
Is it possible to pull information from two or more separate Answers requests into the same BI Publisher report?
I'm using Word with the BI Publisher add-in. I can connect to, and retrieve data from, one of my stored Answers requests. So now I have a table of Answers-sourced results in my Word doc.
Now I'd like to get some different results, from another stored Answers query, and put those results into a second location in my Word doc.
How is this accomplished?
Thanks!

I figured it out. Although I can't DIRECTLY add more than one answers query to a Word doc strictly from within Word, if I establish the different Answers queries as different DataSets over in my BI Publisher report, then specify that the default DataSet is the Concatenated SQL Data Source, both queries appear in the "Insert" options in Word, and both can be used in the same Word doc layout template.

Created Webi report using BEx Query.

Hi All,
I am going to upgrade in BW and using BEx & Webi Report. I have created webi report using BEx query. Now I need to test data in webi report.
Can anyone tell me how to test data?

Hi,
compare the webi report data with Bex report. more you can compare webi report with SAP R3 system for random records.

Can create Webi report using multiple universe (multiple datasource)

Hi All,
Can we create a Webi report from multiple universe (can say multiple dataprovider & datasource)?
Please suggest.
Regards,

You can bring as many sources together into one report as you like.
However, to use them together you must have some common dimension, such as a particular Sold To Party, Business Partner, etc. You can then use merge dimensions to develop your report but you will need to be aware that dimensions that are NOT Common to both data providers cannot be used in a table combining two data providers.
So, if data provider one has dimensions Resort, Product and Year and a measure object Sales Value
while data provider one has dimensions Resort and Year and a measure object Cost Value, you cannot use Product in a report but you can display Resort, Year, Sales Value and Cost Value together to show you how much revenue each resort is generating each year and how much it is costing you to do so. To have product in the report table, you would need to add it to data provider two.
Hope that clears it up for you.
Regards,
Mark

Creating multiple tab reports using the same query in Web intelligence

Hi All,
I have created a Universe on a BW Query which has fields as below
AGE Depaatment Gender Grade
25       FIN                M            A
27       LES               F            A+
60       SWS            M             A++
Based on this data i have created a WEbi report which shows all of these data under one tab.
Now i create a new report tab in the same Webi Document by right cliicking the existing report and going to inset report and saving it.
Similarly i create two more new report tabs.
in each of these tabs i want to show data only for the concened departments.ie =1st report contains all the departments.
2nd report contains only finance data, third contains only Les data and fourth only SWs Data.
Is it possible to create this report using the same query?
Regards,
Raj.

You should use report filters, not query filters.
A query filter will affect the entire document. Every report tab that pulls data from that query will be impacted. If you start with a single report, by default it shows the data from the query. If you duplicate that report tab, then it's still attached to the first query. There are various ways to create report filters (input controls, quick filter, invoking the filter area from the toolbar) and a report filter impacts only blocks on that report tab. You can even create block filters by clicking on the block first, then creating your filter.
This is a fairly confusing bit for folks that are new to Web Intelligence.

Error (WIS 10901) while creating a webi report against SAP data source

Hi,
While creating a webi report against a universe created using Infocube/Bex query (basically SAP data source) get a error message -
A database error occured. The database error text is: A runtime exception has occured. (License key check failed. Check that you are licensed to access SAP data sources). (WIS 10901).
Any clues whether this is a license issue or something else?

I am having the same problem. I checked and double checked everything, including deleting and recreating the Universe and the Connection. No improvement. On a whim, I deleted the hierarchy from the query on which the Universe was based, and recreated the Universe on the query without the hierarchy. The problem went away.
Now, the question is, why do I get the WIS 10901 error when a hierarchy is present in the query/Universe?

5.We are able to view the webi documents successfully ,the issue occurs only when we create a new webi report.
Any one please help me on this issue.
Thank you in advance.

WEBI Report Use of Variable in Drill Down

Hi,
i am new to BI Webi report just doing some practice exercise from E fashion Universe. Need your help in creating a WEBI report which should show Sales Revenue broken down to half-year level.
For example:
We have Year, when we drill Year 2004, it should not show Quarter infect i want to see 1st Half Year as Q1;Q2 and 2nd Half year as Q3;Q4 for that year.
For this i have created a Variable "Half Year"
=If([Quarter]InList("Q1";"Q2");"1st Half Year"; "2nd Half Year")
Is there anyway i can use this variable so when i drill Year it should Sales Revenue Broken as Half Year
Thanks

Hi Kamal,
1) Create Half Year object in Universe.
2) You can create custom Hierarchy in Universe like-
Year
Half Year
Quarter
Then you can drill down to Year>>Half Year>>Quarter

WebI Report using BW Query

Hi,
I am using WebI Report using BW Query. I don't see some Formulas in Universe which is there in BEx Query.
Did anybody face the same problem before?

Hi,
I meant that you should post in the forum the calculation contained in the formula that you cannot see in your universe.
But let's start from the begining since you are new to SAP: Did you generated the universe yourself? If the formula was added in the query after the universe was created then you must refresh your universe (In the Universe designer please select the option "Refresh structure" under the "view" menu) in order to get the newly created formula (I assume we are takling about a calculate figure here) in your universe also.

Rolling month for webi report using Univ based on BEX Query

Dear Experts,
I'm new to OLAP universes.
We have a requirements of having last 12 months rolling for given measure(Key figure) in webi report using Univ based on Bex Query.
We require a calmonth (time dimension) object (restricted for last 12 months) where user can drag and drop on column section of cross-tab table. User should drag more than one Key figure ( for ex. sales rev and & qty sold) for each month
Could you please provide me the solution to do this?
Thanks
Akshara

Hi Henry,
Thank you for your response.
BEx query has not been created yet. we need to create accordingly and require your help in creating the same.
Regarding reporting requirements, User wants to have adhoc reporting with rolling months ( 12 months or 6 months) functionality. Users want to link any KF to this rolling months dimension.
If we can't have this, what is the alternative that we can propose to user.
Thanks
Akshara.

Getting an Error WIJ20002 while trying to create a webi report in infoview

Hi,
We are getting an error " The Webintelligence Report Panel cannot connect to the server.Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your Business Objects Administrator ( WIJ20002)" only for a single universe.
Please suggest how can we fix this error.
Regards
Chaitanya

I am giving you couple of scenario based on which this error might occur.I include below a selection of what would seem to be the more relevant ones in your case. Please review these and try the suggested solutions and then let us know the outcome in each case.
Scenario1:
When creating a new document based on linked universes in InfoView 6.5.x, the following error message appears:
"The WebIntelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server. Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your BusinessObjects administrator. (Error: WIJ 2002)."
When you click on details, the following error message appears:
"java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot load DS; no ID set
at com.bo.wp.om.OMDataProvider.getDataSource(OMDataProvider.java:192)

at com.bo.w.tc.thread.InitAppletRunner.run(InitAppletRunner.java:82)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)"
Resolution:
In Supervisor, the user does not have the Import Universe right in the designer.
Enable the Import Universe right for the user, and ensure they have rights at the user and group level.
Scenario2:
In BusinessObjects version 6.5, when attempting to create a new WebIntelligence report using the Java Query Panel, one of the following error messages appears:
"The Web Intelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server. Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your Business Objects Administrator (Error: WIJ 20002)"
or
u201CWeb Intelligence cannot retrieve this document due to a server problem or an error in the document structure. See your Business Objects Administrator".
Also, the bottom of the Java applet window states Launching new document.
Resolution:
The error messages occur because either the universe file name contains an ampersand character (u201C&u201D) in the name or the .unv or .unw files used by the Java Query Panel have become corrupted.
To resolve the error messages
Navigate to <installation directory>:/Business Objects/BusinessObjects Enterprise 6/nodes/<server name>/<cluster name>/universes/.
Remove the .unv file for the derived universe.
Navigate to <installation directory>: /Business Objects/BusinessObjects Enterprise 6/nodes/<server name>/<cluster name>/universes/<universe domain name>/ucdz.
Remove the .unw file for the derived universe.
Remove the ampersand character ("&") from the universe name.

Problem:
Error: "The WebIntelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server. Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your BusinessObjects administrator. (Error: WIJ 20002)" when you try to open the Java Report Panel.
Resolution:
****CONFIGURATION*****
WebIntelligence version 6.1b
Windows 200 Server SP4
IIS 5
JDK 1.42_03
**********SYMPTOMS******
You try to open the Java Report Panel and you receive the following error:
"The WebIntelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server. Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your BusinessObjects administrator. (Error: WIJ 20002)"
*********CAUSE*************
You do not have the correct permissions to access files from the wiasp virtual directory. The virtual directory and all sub-directories were initially configured to use "Scripts only" or "None".
*********RESOLUTION*****
Here are the steps to follow:
1. Open the Internet Information Services Manager Console.
2. Expand the "Default Web Site" and "wiasp" directories.
3. Right-click each of the following directories, and in Properties for each, set the respective value for Execute Permissions:
scripts = "Scripts"
viewers = "Scripts"
bin = "Scripts and Executables"
classes = "Scripts"
onlineguides = "Scripts"
help = "Scripts"
distribution = "Scripts" or "None"
Scenario4:
Problem:
Error: "WebIntelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server (WIJ 20002)" when attempting to create a new report
Resolution:
****CONFIGURATION*****
WebIntelligence 6.5.x
**********SYMPTOMS******
You attempt to create a new report using the Java panel based on a universe. The universe list appears as expected, but upon selecting the universe you receive an error similar to the following:
"The WebIntelligence Java Report Panel cannot connect to the server. Close the report panel and try to connect again or see your BusinessObjects administrator. (WIJ 20002)"
*********CAUSE*************
There is a connectivity issue to the universe and/or document domain. The universe list is still displayed because that information is cached.
*********RESOLUTION*****
Here are the steps to follow:
1. Log into Supervisor as a General Supervisor.
2. Go to Tools > Repository to open the Repository Management dialog where domain connections are listed.
3. Test the document and universe domain connections and update where needed to establish connectivity.
