Different display on client report builder and web reports

Hi all, I have build a report in report 6i version Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1.And I set the page to 8.5*11 ,and it runs well in the client ,but when I put it on the UNIX SERVER,and run it from web URL,It displayed different from the client report builder.The web report is "smaller" than the client report ,but the font size is as same as the client .
My HPUX is 11x,and display the Chinese report .
Any body know why ?give me some advice ,thank u very much.

Hi
If you had built the report definition on Windows and then moved this to Unix server, you may find different fonts in use. This is becuase your Unix setup does not have the same fonts install. At design time, You need to use fonts which are available on Unix also. The same fonts shaould also be installed for printer in Unix i.e. the AFM/PFM font files should be kept under $ORACLE_HOME/guicommonX/tkXX/admin/AFM or PFM directory. This would give you the same output and would lessen the porting affect.
Thanks

Dashboard Builder Not Available

Hi guys
I´ve installed BO XI 3.1 SP 2 FP 2.8 without problems it work fine i´ve create universes and webi documents but when i wanted to create an analytic in dashboard builder i notice that the dashboard builder is not available i have the option in the toola bar but is grayed.
I enter CMC and in applications i didnt found anything about Analytics.
In servers i didntfound any server about analytics or performance or any AA server.
Somebody told me that is needed a licence about Performance MAnager or Analytics, i found temporary licences of both and i installed but nothing happened.
How can i make dashboard builder works, is necesary to install anything or is just only needed a configuration?
I hope somebody could help me with this.
Regards

Hi Oscar,
There are higher chances that you've not chosen to install Dashboard Builder at the time of installing BO Enterprise XI3.1 and hence you are not able to see the Dashboard Builder services. BOXI3.1 comes with Dashboard Builder embedded and hence there is no additional installer for it.
It is recommended that if you wish to use Dashboard Builder, you must have a Premium Keycode (License) for BusinessObjects Enterprise. "Performance Management Dashboards" are an Extention of Dashboard Builder and needs Extra License and Database however, we just need to configure it, there is nothing to install additionally for Performance Management Dashboards.
Would request you to please go through the relevent litrature to have more insight on Dashboard Builder and Performance Management Dashboards so that you can choose accordingly.
Regarding your scenario, you can go to BOServer (machine where you've installed BO) >> Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs >> and can "Modify" the BOE Setup. From there, you can select the Performance Management services install them additionally. Just make sure you have the BOE Installation files handy.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Multiple List Builder and Query As A Web Service Problems

Hi All,
I quickly became aware that trying to pass multiple parameters to "Query As A Web Service" from a "List Builder" object in Xcelsius was not a simple task to acheive after reading this post here :-
Query as a Web Service and In List
I followed the advice that David Brunner suggested towards the end of the thread about creating a "BI Service" by publishing a block from a Webi Rich Client report.
I then referenced the newly created "BI Service" by using it's WDSL URL through the Xcelsius Data Manager - Query As A Web Service connection.
Everything appeared to work fine (e.g. Did my selections from the last builder and got refreshed/changed figures in my Spreadsheet Table object in the Dashboard) until I realised figures in my dashboard were not reconcilling and appeared much lower than expected.
After monitoring what was happening traffic wise with "Fiddler 2" I discovered that Xcelsius was only passing the first entry in each of the selected values for the list builder even though a range of cells (e.g Month_Year!$a$2:$a$13) was specified to be passed as an input parameter to the BI Service (confirmed through viewing the Input/Output XML being sent).
I even tried specifying the multiple values in the different suggested ways that David Brunner advised such as a semi colon delimited list (e.g. Miami;Boston;Chicago) but this didn't appear to be working either.
Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong here? Why is only the first value being passed?
I am using Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP3.
Many Thanks,
Gary

In BI I am able to restrict user but in bobj its not restricting. kindly let me know if i am missing anything?
We are having BO 4.0 SP6.

Business Objects Dashboard and Webi Connectivity

Hi All,
I am on BI 4.0 Sp6 and would like to create a BO Dashboard based on Webi Instance. What is the best approach to do the same.
1. I want the BO Dashboard data to be visible on Ipad ( hence no data source connections)
2. In case of live office , how does the refresh mechanism work
3. Does add on tools like XWIS help in mitigating the issue
Would like to hear best practices around the same.
Thanks
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
I am on BI 4.0 Sp6 and would like to create a BO Dashboard based on Webi Instance. What is the best approach to do the same.
If you are using LO connection, then its not mobile supported connections & struggled a lot to make it stabilize. but still its a good connection to view the data in dashboard design time.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b02e31fb-3568-2e10-e78f-92412c3c0a96?quicklink=index&…
Take look at the below links for the up's & down for BIWS Connection.
Xcelsius and Business Intelligence Web Services (BIWS)
Xcelsius and Business Intelligence Web Services (BIWS)- Part 2
http://everythingxcelsius.com/topics/web-intelligence
How to create Xcelsius Dashboard based of BI Web Service ( BIWS )
I want the BO Dashboard data to be visible on Ipad ( hence no data source connections)
If you are looking for a connection which is specific to mobile supported, then look into the below links.
You can get all aspect of information which is necessary to create a dashboard.
How to Configure and Access Dashboards from IPad
Dashboards currently support only data manager connections defined using Query Browser as Live Data connections and QaaWS and Flash variable connections support is planned in BI 4.1
In case of live office , how does the refresh mechanism work
Refresh can be done webi side by scheduling the report in repository or you can keep a refresh button in dashboard to refresh the data. I hope automatic refresh is not possible here.
Does add on tools like XWIS help in mitigating the issue
I have no idea regarding this,
Hope this helps.

Encyclopedia and Dashboard Builder

Hi Experts
I have a customer that wants to use the Encyclopedia together with the Dashboard at analytics level. I have played around with the different options but there doesnu2019t seem to be solution. As I see it the Encyclopedia is only shown at tab/ dashboard level and cant be linked at lower level. I hope that I have missed something ?
Kind regards
Anders Toft

Encyclopedia and Dashboard Builder
you can use the Encyclopedia to show the information when you click on some tab while you are navigating through the dasboard itself.
for everytab or sub-tab you can have different information
but dont think that you can use it for analytics level
good luck

Are Forms Builder and Reports available as Web Application?

We have a few developers working on custom forms and reports for various projects including EBS 12.x. To avoid the hastle associated with patching and upgrading all desktops, we are looking for a server based forms builder and reports writer.
I am familiar with UNIX based tools in EBS that can run with X-windows [on local desktop]. Created an SR with OS, but not getting a satisfactory response. I am looking for pointers to browser based tools. Do they even exist? I was hoping maybe something in Fusion stack might allow it.
Thanks,
Sachin

Thanks all for your feedback. Confirmed this with the Oracle Sales team. There is no browser tool available from Oracle. If you must avoid the desktop install, the only option is frmbld/rwbuilder in $ORACLE_HOME/bin (R12).

Dashboard Builder - Anyone using this in Live environment

Hi,
We have requirements wherin we want to integrate Xcelsius and Detailed Webi reports and develop a kind of reporting suite where the Xcelsius will drive the reporting outputs in Webi.
we have completed a prototype and know this works with the use of 'Dashboard builder'.
Wanted to now check if anyone has used 'dashboard Builder' in a lIve environment and how stable it is.
Can we publish reports developed in Dashboard Builder to folders and control who has access to which report ?
Thanks,
Sameer

Hi some customers are using Dashboard in PRD environment and it works fine is ver stable.
Respect to the authorizations, you must asume that a dashboard is a resume of webi, xcelsius and analytics reports and you need authorizations for any element individually and then also authorization to the dashboard if you need you can restrict the access as any other file in the BO.
Regards

PWVERSION sql error in dashboard builder

Hi all
We are currently attempting to deliver SAP Strategy Management through the dashboard builder as part of an integrated solution of SSM, Xcelcius and Webi. When we try to run SSM within a tab page on Dashboard Builder we get the following error;
Error: SqlStatement
Error: SqlStatement: SELECT * from PWVERSION
Error Code: no such table: PWVERSION
The SSM does not then start up.
This is a pioneering attempt to integrate the two tools in a portal style solution so any help would be very much appreciated.
Regards
Gareth

Thats right...
Err..Ohk. Don't tell me that you are using Hierarchical columns and other attributes in same prompt (i.e. Single GO Button)
Like you have columns like Region-Country-State-City and say Category in same prompt where Region-Country-State-City is hierarchy in OBIEE RPD.
You will have to create 2 seperate prompts here to get it work.
Prompt 1: Region-Country-State-City (Constraint on each level)
Prompt 2: Category and other attributes
This will have 2 prompts so 2 GO button. No way you can achieve this in Single GO even if you change the XMLs and all.
This is OBIEE logic working behind pulling the common fact and also fetching hierarchical data based on level above i.e. constraints here...
Hope this clears your doubt. Or may be give the exact structure of your prompts.

Dashboard builder vs single dashboard

Hi all, can someone please tell me whats the difference between Dashboard builder, single dash board.
I have access to single dashboard. What features does it provide other than accomodating multiple reports.
Regards

Dashboard Builder is some module comes with the EPM , Enterprise Performance Manager, which allows you to create corporate dashboards, add analytics web pages,,, etc
which is also different in its navigation and developing more than the single dashboards,
the single dashboards its just like you create one page using the infoview, and you put some shortcut for you reports on it.
good luck
