Crosstab Webi report

Hello,
I need to create some dummy columns at the end of the cross tab, any ideas
The cross tab may look some thing like
A B C D E
1
2
3
where the 1,2,3 are rows and A,B,C D and E are columns, both are data objects. Hence the cross tab can expand,
In my case the crosstab can increase / decrease the number of columns represented by the object (Column headers).
Is there an example, where i can add some blank columns at the end of the cross tab.
I need this functionality such that it can be consumed by live office connection in Dashboards
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay,
If I am not wrong, you cannot add columns; however, you can add footers to the crosstab which will actually look like columns.
Then you can try to insert the block into Dashboard using LiveOffice.
Give it a try.

Refresh Webi report with merged cells in crosstab in PowerPoint

Hello,
I have created a Webi report with a crosstab. In this crosstab I have merged some cells in the top left corner and inserted a title for the crosstab. Now I want to import the crosstab in PowerPoint with Live Office. The problem is, that after the import in PowerPoint the cells are not merged anymore. So I merged them manually. When I refresh the crosstab, the cells are still merged in PowerPoint, but they are empty.
Any ideas how to solve this issue?

Help in Webi report in Crosstab

I have a report in cross tab format. and I have following data which are storing product name, min stock, max stock and average stock but did not store category for each product.
Min_document   Max_document   Average_document    Quantity
doc10                 doc50              doc30            100
doc10                 doc50              doc30            200
doc10                 doc50              doc30            300
doc10                 doc50              doc30            400
doc20                 doc60              doc40            150
doc20                 doc60              doc40            250
doc20                 doc60              doc40            350
doc20                 doc60              doc40            450
How am I going to fit the above data into the cross tab webi report as following
                          doc10           doc50          doc30            doc20           doc60      doc40
                            MIN             MAX             AVG             MIN            MAX        AVG
Standard Quantity           100             400             250             150            450        300
Standard Quantity is a hardcoded column and not store into the table. Within the "Doc10 ~ Doc50", get the "Max Document 's quantity" and "minimum Document's" quantity and fit into row "Standard Quantity" + Column MAX and row "Standard Quantity" + Column MIN.
Any Idea? Thanks in advance.

If the product assignment cannot be retrieved from the database you have to do this manually. Just add a formula field named Product in your report with the following code:
if ='12-1-2010' and =10 then "Product A"
else if ='12-1-2010' and =15 then "Product B"
else if ='13-1-2010' and =20 then "Product A"
else if ='13-1-2010' and =16 then "Product B"
Please note that the above code may have to be modified depending on the data type of your Date field ( I assume that this is retrieved as a string in the above example).
Use the formula field as Product dimension in your cross tab.

How to link a webi report from crystal report

Hello everyone,
I am trying to link a webi report from crystal XI.
In my crosstab, the data is divided grouped by periods.
So for every country it shows data along a period of time.
The details for the value of the crosstab are in a webi report.I am trying to pass the period value and country name as a prompt from crystal to webi but it is not picking them correctly.
can we pass prompts from a crystal report to a webi url??

Try to use OpenDoc URL to pass the parameter values from crystal to webi. To use OpenDoc URL you need to publish these reports in server. See the following example
http://server name:8080/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&sPath=[folder name]&sDocName=Child&iDocID=4804&lsSEnter+State:=California

Webi report - save as .csv is bringing double the number of rows.

Hello all,
I am running a webi report and then saving it as .csv file to my desktop but when I save the file it is giving me double the number of rows. In my report I have employee, employee key, attributes and Org unit and some measures.
The .csv file has one additional column at the end which does not have any header and that column has "1" in the rows which should be legitimate and "0" in the rows which are so called duplicates, in these duplicate rows there is all data except it is missing the employee key and org unit key.
If I save as excel I get the right number of rows.
has any one seen this issue before?
Thanks in advance,

Exporting to csv is different from exporting to csv.
If you have any filter on your crosstab or table and you export it to excel it will show you your data according to this filter. Let's say in your table you have amount 0 and 1 and you filter that column so it will show only those records where amount = 1. If you export it to excel you'll get what you see in your WebI report, that's only records with amount = 1.
But if you export to csv the same Webi report with the same crosstab or table filtered by amount=1, the csv export will ignore this filter and your csv will include amount 0 and amount 1 records.
I don't know if that's a WebI's bug, but that's what has happened to me.
A workaround could be adding your filter directly in the query pane, not filtering your table columns.
Also check your query pane to see what object is bringing that extra column in your table.

Webi report display splits a column

Hi
fairly new to Webi so I hope this doesn't sound too basic. I have a Webi report that is 30 odd columns wide (this is currently BOXI R2 on Windows 2003); it's displayed in Landscape mode and splits several columns down the middle. How can you define where the vertical page breaks should be and/or which columns should not be split?
Cheers
Mark Gillis

Thanks for getting back. That's not quite the problem: it's a 'standard' Webi report (not a crosstab) and has over 40 columns. Even in landscape mode, that displays over 5 pages. The problem is vertical splits: I can fit columns 1 to 7 on page 1 and then column 8 is half on the first page and half on the second (this is displaying in Page mode in Infoview: I can display in Draft mode, of course, to get a full span display of the report).
What I'm trying to do is define the report so that when a user displays in Page mode columns do not get split. It may be that Draft mode is the only answer but I was hoping a setting would exist to say "don't split columns over pages".

Problems access to a web application (Web Interface or Web report)

Hi,
We found problems with the access to web application. Some users have problems with direct links to the web applications(Web Interface or Web reporting), when they click on the link an error message appears, the message displays the following text:
"Cannot open file Bex?sap-language=ENbsplanguge=ENcmd=idoc_TE.."
Clicking in details the message is "No Access to specified file"
For this users the access to excel reporting is correct, the message appears when they click on the direct web links through the browser or directly in BW system, but if they type the URL they can access. Other users can use the direct web link without problems.
I highly appreciate any help or idea about how to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

HI,

How to remove blank pages from WebI Report in view page layout option

I am working in Business Objects XIR2 environment. I have a WebI report with several sections. I need to show the report as a book with 69 sections (each section on new page). there are 69 sections on cost center and each cost center section has almost 10 sections embedded in it. When i see in regular view - I only see 69 pages but when I try to see in "View Page Lay out" option, there is one blank page added after each results page.
Please let me know how to remove this blank page. I need to give users the option to download the book as PDF on to their machine. Now, when I download to my machine, I see one blank page after each results page.

Jus convert your report in Page Layout mode and see if your first pafe is getting expand in the second page.
Now check if there are any cell going into second page.

you have to check formating very carefull.

Change order of key figure is not working in Web report output (using WAD)

Hi,
We are using BI 7.0, release 701 and level 008. We are facing problem in WAD (web report output). When ever we do 'Select filter' for key figures and 'change the order' of key figures, it does not get reflected in new order. Though drag and drop of key figures is working.
Though same change order is working fine in Bex Analyser.
Kindly suggest some inputs.
Thanks.

Hi,
On Which Service Pack are you on?WAD has this feature of re arranging the keyfigures in BI 7.0 for SPS 14...

Analysis Authorization in BO 4.0 Webi report

Hi All,
I am using BO 4.0 and creating connection from Information Design tool to a BW query using BICS client. This connection is then published to CMC.
We are using SAP authentication and importing the roles from BW system. We have added profiles to this role and these profiles have Analysis Authorization set on Company Code. So one user can access data to one company code and vice versa. Now this works well in Bex Analyzer, but if I try to create a report in Webi, the analysis authorization fails. I went through the forum before posting this question and I found that is in 3.1 version and in most cases using SSO in universe connection solved the problem.
However in 4.0 I am using BICS client and followed the same processes to create a connection but for some reason it doesn't work ? Is this suppose to work differently in 4.0 ?
I have tried:
1. To create connection in Information Design tool using SSO, selecting user ID and password. It doesn't work.
2. Checked the Bex query and it already has Company code as a Characteristic restrictions (I have made it a mandatory variable).
3. Publish the connection to CMC with my Enterprise and SAP ID and in both cases it doesn't work.
Please let me know if anyone encountered a similar issue and what is the best method to resolve this.
(BO 4.0 no service pack or fix pack installed on the system yet)
Thanks - Appreciate your help !
Prasad Rasam

Ingo,
1. To create connection in Information Design tool using SSO, selecting user ID and password. It doesn't work.
>> Correct you need to setup you OLAP Connection with SSO.
>>> What I meant was I created the connections using both the methods, Using SSO it allows me to create a connection. The ID which I am using to create a connection has Admin access to BOBJ system. When I login as a regular user to create a Webi report and select this new connection, it throws an error message 'The DSL Service returned an error: com.businessobjects.dsl.services.workspace.impl.QueryViewAnalyzer$CannotGetCubeFromConnectionException: Cannot get the cube from the connection'
Using the other method to create a connection with User ID and password, I can create a connection and with the normal user login I can connect to the BW query but Analysis Authorization doesn't work.
Ingo : Could you be more specific what you mean here with the different users ? When you say "regular" user are you referring to an SAP credentials or SAP BusinessObjects Enteprrise credentials ?
2. Checked the Bex query and it already has Company code as a Characteristic restrictions (I have made it a mandatory variable).
>> The variable in the BEx query needs to be an authorization variable.
>>> This has already been set as Authorization variable. There is still a question here. If I select the variable as Authorization variable, I cannot set the other parameters in the query properties such as Mandatory variable (as this is greyed out).
Ingo : What other parameters would you like to configure ? Could you perhaps describe the scenario with more details ?

How to add A single row at the middle of the table in a Webi report

Hi,
I created a Webi report using Universe(Created universe using bex query).Now i have a requirement to display a row at the middle of a report. Can you please tell me ,how to add a sigle row at the middle of a Webi report.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Monika

Hi Monika,
It is not really possible to add a row (I assume you mean of unrelated data) to the middle of a table in a report. You can add a new table with a single row between two tables. For instance you could add a new one row table, or even single cells which are positioned relatively between two tables. Possibly a block on top of another. But this gets tricky.
Can you explain in more detail what you are trying to do?
Thanks

Error while executing webi report

Hello Experts,
I created a universe using SAP BI query. Now I am using this query to create webi report. so while creating webi report i select 1 characteristics and 1 key figure from the universe and putting them on result objects pane.
After putting these object when I execute the report i get following error:
Database error: SOFA Driver : Catastrophic failure. Contact your Business Objects administrator or database supplier for more information. (Error: WIS 10901)
Can anyone suggest me how to resolve this error?
Regards,
Nirav Shah

yes, underlying queries work perfectly fine. Universe are created without any issue. However,in WebI, when I drag the any TWO objects under any class or even combination of one object and one measurement key, as soon as I refresh query, the error pops up. If there is JUST ONE object, no issue at all. I can see the data.
Mean...if there is more than one object in any WebI report, the error is thrown by WebI report. And this happens only while running WebI against SAP BW/BI, query or against any InfoCube.
Thanks
