Web Analysis Essbase connection

Hi all,
I have an already created Web Analysis Essbase connection and I want to change the Essbase server for the connection. If I go to Workspace->Explore, then Tools->Manage Database Connections, I can only see the Reporting connections in order to edit them. How do I edit the properties of Web Analysis connections?
Thank you!

You can edit them through WA studio, depends on where you saved the db connections, usually in the databases folder, right click the connection and edit.
Cheers

Web Analysis Report Not Working in Workspace

Hi all, I try to restate an already posted problem to see if some of you have encountered the same problem, that seems to me a BIG one:
- all the report developed in Web Analysis Studio, which connects to Essbase 9.3.1, doesn't work in workspace, if the Database Connection Property is configured for using the user credentials specified in workspace logon.
If I change the DB to an Essbase 7, it DOES work.
If I change the Database Connection Properties to specify in the preference file the username and password (or to ask the user the credential on report opening) it DOES work.
Any Hint?
Thanks
Giovanni Migotto

Hi Giovanni Migotto,
Do you import all the reports from webanalysis and delete the database connections to the reports and export it into Workspace, by the time of exporting it will asks you the database connection and the application name.
provide those and try to run again those reports hope will work fine.
Thanks

Dimension Header Sort not working in Web Analysis

The dimension header sort which is supposed to sort dimension members automatically as they are designed in the database outline doesn't work and instead any new dimension members are just added to the end of the list. There are four options from the shortcuts menu > Data Display > Dimension Header Sort : Default, Ascending, Descending, Level or Generation. None of these work or none of these reorganize the dimension members order. Does anybody know what could be the problem? We are using Hyperion Web Analysis Studio 9.3.1 running on Red Hat.
This is a big show stopper issue for our deployment because of the vast number of changes to the reports financial users have to do on daily basis they expect the hierachy based on the database outline in Essbase to be retained through any new member additions or changes.
Regards,
Livia

Hi Livia,
How are you pulling through the members - are you using Descendant of? (I know there is the Dynamic option for drop downs).
Web Analysis is very picky about the formatting and application of different formats in order they were last applied. Maybe try removing all formating to see if there is still an issue, then reapply.
There is also a known issue (SR3-992119231) with shared members only appearing in the first place in the hierarchy and not in any shared hierarchies - the SR indicated it would be fixed in the current version 11.1.x but there was no indication of a backfix to prior releases (9.3.1.x).
Cheers, Iain
Clarified comments on SR fix.

Regarding web analysis database connections

Hi All,
I have couple of web analysis reports and the issue is i have copied this web analysis server to another server
where i have the same application. Now iam trying to append those database connection properties of the file to
point to the new server.
I have altered by selecting the user>database>select database>rightclick>edit>changed properties
But when i open the report it popping out with my old server details.
Does any one have idea about how to change database properties for a report.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Manoj,
I have created a DSN but how can i point the report to that DSN and run the same report as of my report running on my old server.
Thanks,
Ram

Problem with Web Analysis

Hi,
With the help from some of the experts in this forum, I have finished installing and configuring the following 3 Hyperion 9.3.1 products (in this order) on our Windows 2003 development server.
V11229-01.zip (Hyperion Shared Services)
V11207-01.zip (Hyperion Reporting and Analysis - Services Release)
V11223-01.zip (Hyperion Reporting and Analysis - UI Services Release)
The backend is an Oracle 10g database.
I can successfully log into
(1) Shared Services @ http://localhost:58080/interop as admin/<default password>
(2) Web Analysis @ http://localhost:16000/WebAnalysis/WebAnalysis.jsp with the same userid/password (that I used to log into Shared Services)
(3) Workspace @ http://localhost:45000/workspace/index.jsp with the same userid/password (that I used to log into Shared Services)
This tells me I probably configured these componently correctly.
However, it seems that I cannot do something basic in Web Analysis Studio. For Example, if I try to do
File->New->Document Wizard, most of the menu options under "File" are grayed out.
To be precise, the following options under "File" are grayed out.
New, Open, Edit, Close, Close All, Save, SAve As, SAve as HTML, Properties, IMport, Export, Email As LInk, Print
so, I could not even do File->New.
In fact, the "Edit", "View" and "Display" menu items in the menu bar are grayed out as well.
As you can see, I can do very little in the Web Analysis Studio (I am logged in as admin user, which is the only user now).
Is this a permission issue? or did I fail to install some necessary components?
Also, in this forum, how do I post a screen capture (saved as an image)?
thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
pls. try to give admin user more rights (Provision to "Report Designer" or "BIPlus Administrator" - I dont know exactly which roles are available concerning BI Plus suite).
Kind regards

Output from Web Analysis Related Content will not Export to Excel

I have Web Analysis reports, data in which is sourced from an EIS database. I have drill thru reports that are accessible from "Related Content". The resulting report is created fine, but cannot be exported into Excel. Specifically, I'm prompted for the location of Excel on my pc. Once I browse to it, it will open in Excel.
I have upgraded from Office 10 to Office 12, although I cannot say for certain that is when this problem started occurring.
Secondly, there are no other BI+ issues with export to Excel. For example, FR and WA export fine. The ExcelPath in the webanalysis.properties file takes care of that. I'm hoping there is something similar to update for this problem.
Thanks for reading, hopefully someone else has encountered this and successfully resolved. BI+ version is 9.3.1.

Have you tried the print button in the web analyzer it does export the input filter parameters as part of the exported PDF document.
You can include any additional text elements and use a custom export template if required.

Problems in Limiting Export option in Web Analysis shortcut menu options

Hi everyone,
i'm trying to limit the shortcut menù option in Web Analysis studio following the instructions in the WA 9.3.1 user guide: "Limiting Web Analysis Studio Shortcut Menu Options" page 293. Exactly i would hyde the Export to some users (an user with Viewer and Expoler permissions).
The problem is that the solution does not work.
Resuming:
First, I have created the WAMenu.xml file, with restrictions for the roles: Viewer and Explorer (using the same tags of the Sample XML File in the guide)
Second, I have modified the WebAnalysis.properties file removing the # ahead this two lines:
"WAStudioMenuControl= C:/Hyperion/Analyzer/conf/WAMenu.xml
ModuleName=WebAnalysisStudio"
and modified the path with the correct location of the XML file.
At last, i have restart the services regarding Workspace and Web Analysis.
But, it does not work. The user can still see the export options in the shortcut menu..I don't understand what is wrong..
I really hope that someone can help me!!

Hi Iain,
thanks for answering.
Unfortunately it doesn't restrict neither in the workspace nor in the WA studio.
I made a lot of attempts, not only with export but also with other option, and there are no changes!!
Do you remember if you made the same steps descripted above, or there is something that i did not make (or made wrong)??
Cheers,
Angelo

Date format issue in Web Analysis...

Hi,
I am creating a report by connecting to a couple of relational tables. I'm using SQL Spreadsheet and SQL Subscription objects. I'm creating a Date filter using SQL Subscription object (list box) using the data source created by the SQL Spreadsheet. My database default date format is 'DD-MON-YYYY'. But in the list box it shows as 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SI". When this value is selected, I get a "Literal mismatch error" since it doesn't match with the value stored in the database.
Why the format in WA is showing in this format even though it is fetchting it from my database in which the format is 'DD-MON-YYYY'. Is this related to WA date format settings? I cannot find anywhere in WA studio where I can set date formats. Is this something to be set in the server or webanalysis.properties file?
PS: I tried to work around this by storing the date value as character in the database but then I am not able to sort them ascending or descending order.I also tried creating the web analysis relational database connection which creates a virtual cube. But even there when I build the report using Data Source Navigator, it is showing date in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SI'.

Hi,
Let me provide you the details of the report.
A concurrent program has been created with executable as XDODTEXE (XML publisher report).
In the data definition, we have embed one query which fetches transaction date and due date from some tables based on some conditions.
Now, we have to show these date columns in report output which will be in EXCEL format.
We want these date outputs to be printed in dd/mm/yyyy format. That is the reason we had given-
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE (SUBSTR(transaction_date,1,10), 'DD/MON/RRRR'),'DD/MM/RRRR') in the SQL query.
Problem in output is- In date columns, data after 12th is fine i.e. in format dd/mm/yyyy, it is printing properly.
But before 12th, it is printing in format mm/dd/yyyy as mentioned below-
01/10/2012--wrong format, it should be 10/01/2012
01/11/2012--wrong format, it should be 11/01/2012
01/12/2012--wrong format, it should be 12/01/2012
13/01/2012--correct format (dd/mm/yyyy)
14/01/2012--correct format (dd/mm/yyyy)
How can i send you the attachment, is there any way/any email id?

Hyperion Web Analysis Studio - Excel Export Data PATH TO EXCEL

I have a problem with Hyperion Web Analysis Studio by Export Data (Path to Excel) function on every client (windows Vista - IE 7 - Office 2007)
The problem is when I try to use the Export data to Excel, the Path to the excel program is missing and I have to go manually over the directory and choose the excel.exe to export the report, when I restart the IE I have to do it again...
Hyperion support suggested I try adding the Excel path to my webanalysis.properties file
So I now have:
ExcelPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\EXCEL.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
EXCEL.EXE
WordPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\WINWORD.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
WINWORD.EXE
PPTPath=C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12\\POWERPNT.EXE;C:\\Progra~1\\Micros~2\\OFFICE12
POWERPNT.EXE
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
ResolveDimSetAliases=false
ExportDataFullPrecision=true
To me this does not seem the way to go
This did not correct my problem.
Any ideas?
thanks
Erich

Hello,
Even we have the same issue.And changed the path in webanalysis.properties file.And it worked in entire report but in drillthru reports, export to excel 2010 didn't work and prompting to select the path to excel.Does anyone has solution for this??

Web Analysis Problem using the "Send to Excel" service

I built reports using WebAnalysis 9.3.0.
I attached the "Send to Excel" service button to my report. I am using a combination of Excel 2003 & 2007.
I have the following settings in my webanalysis.properties file:
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
My problem is when I try to use the "Send to Excel" button. For "small" reports Excel opens quickly with my report information. Small being around 1,000 rows and 20 columns. If I add more rows, say another 400 or so - Excel never opens with my report information. Web Analysis sits there for about 5 minutes or so and does nothing. After that I can start using WA again - but no report in Excel.
I get the same result by right clicking on the report in WA Studio and selecting "Export Data..."
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hyperion support suggested I try adding the Excel path to my webanalysis.properties file
So I now have:
ExcelPath=D:\\Progra~1\Micros~1\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe;C:\\Progra~1\Micros~2\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
ResolveDimSetAliases=false
Where D:\\Progra~1\Micros~1\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe is the path to Excel as installed on the server where WA Studio is installed.
And C:\\Progra~1\Micros~2\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe is the path to Excel as installed on my laptop.
This did not correct my problem.
Am I using the ExcelPath=.... correctly?
I was not sure this would work since WA Studio successfully starts Excel for "smaller" reports. But I tried it anyway.
Any ideas?

I using local deployment. I deploy my application directly from NWDS to a Mobile Client running also locally in my machine. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that Mobile Client look for resources in NWDS workspace.

Unable to open Web analysis

We recently installed Web Analysis 9.3.1 and have not been able to successfully open it. When we select the Web Analysis URL the initial Web analysis Studio appears with a "session in progress" message. Shortly thereafter a new window opens and it is a blank blue screen with a tiny icon in the upper left corner. We are unable to close this window - you have to go back to the first window and close it completely before the blank screen closes. Web Analysis is deployed in WebSphere 6.0.2 and we are using SSL.

one useful tool might be the Web Analysis config page: replace Hyperion.com with your BIP URL
(assuming your webserver is running on port 45000)
e.g. hyperion.com:45000/WebAnalysis/config
There are useful tests you can perform to see if the required services are available.

Security issue in Web Analysis

I have an issue with granting security to users and groups who are accessing a presentation in a shared desktop.
As per Web Analysis Studio Guide,you should also
"Edit Security file properties to grant access to groups hyperion web analysis"
Can anyone help me with how to edit Security File properties?
If this is not the best practice,can anyone suggest any other approach of provisioning security for documents in Hyperion Web Analysis?

can you tell me what inherit permission you gave to make it work.
I have a folder having a view access only. whenever i make new reports as admin...i cant see my new reports untill i refresh the "apply permission to children" options gain.
But thats not what i m looking for...i want it come on its own when I create a report.
