Design Studio - Dashboards/webi Mobile compatibilty

Dear friends,
I have got a requirement of deploying few webi reports and Dashboards in mobile devices which could be of IOS/Android/Windows. I got to know about design studio where in we can develop the dashboards and reports and deploy it to any mobile devices(Tablets/Phones). Can you please let me know about the feasibilty of this design studio in accordance with my requirement.
Ver - BO 4.1
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi GK,
Creating the dashboard which is mobile compatible is very much possible without using design studio. But if your looking for the futuristic then the answer is may be. SAP says that "Design Studio is the future of dashboarding for SAP". Please find the below links to get some fair idea on this.

Integration of BOBJ Design Studio dashboard via SAP EP

My client is currently piloting the implementation of a BusinessObjects Design Studio dashboard. For maximum flexibility, the Add-on for BI Platform (BIP) has been installed, and we are able to successfully execute the dashboard from the BOBJ LauchPad. Dashboard presents query results from BW.
However, the client now wants to deploy this dashboard to their SAP Enterprise Portal environment. They want the user to be able to access/execute the dashboard from within EP. This is where we have faced several obstacles. Initially, we received a blank screen upon dashboard execution, but this was recently resolved by installing the proper iview template for the BOBJ Design Studio analysis application. (OSS Note 1672422)
Now, when we execute the dashboard via EP, the system presents the BOBJ "hourglass/rainbow circle", but does not complete. I checked the Process Overview in the BW system, and there is no activity taking place during this time.
We are currently at the following release levels:
BW 7.3
Portal 7.4
BOBJ Design Studio 1.4
I would like to hear from someone who has successfully implemented this scenario (Design Studio dashboard, with BIP Add-on, being accessed via SAP EP).
Since we installed the DS Add-On for BIP, or course, we didn't install the DS Add-on for SAP NetWeaver. Do we need to install the NetWeaver Add-on if we want to deploy the dashboards via Portal (even though they are managed/transported within the BI Plaform)?
Any thoughts?

Hi Ingo:
Just wanted to give you an update on our issue. As you suggested, I created a new Design Studio application, containing only a text box. This application was successfully rendered within the Portal.
Afterward, I started experimenting with other dashboard components, including a crosstab object that was linked to a BW query as a Design Studio datasource. The crosstab was also successfully rendered within the Portal.
I then added a chart to this application and re-executed. While the text box and cross tab were visible, the chart was missing.
After researching further, someone mentioned Google Chrome, so I downloaded it and executed the test dashboard containing text box, crosstab, and chart. It rendered successfully in Portal (via Chrome)!!
Afterward, I then executed my initial dashboard application via Chrome, and it also rendered successfully!
I had previously read several posts regarding IE compatibility with Design Studio, but I was always able to use IE to successfully render Design Studio applications via BOBJ LaunchPad. Therefore, I didn't think I had an issues with DS and IE. However, for us, the issue seems to be between DS, EP, and IE.
Now, we have to deal with an organizational issue of web browsers, but that's a separate challenge.
Thanks to all contributors for your insights.

Single/Double click in Design Studio Dashboard

Hi All
In my design studio dashboard, have enabled a functionality of jump-to from one cross tab to other. When doing a single click on a particular value say network - Jim as shown below it jumps to next table showing the relevant confirmation values. But the same thing when a double click is done instead of showing the relevant confirmation values for network - Jim, it displays all the available confirmation values.
Single click view:
Double click view:
Is there a way to handle this? Like switch off single/double click or any scripting to control this?
Any suggestions highly appreciated.
Regards
Merlin

Hi Patrick
If i try the solution suggested by Deepu, on a fresh dashboard it works perfectly fine.
But the same when i do it on my existing dashboard, it does not gives me the expected results. Not only this many other features have resulted in similar situation . I end up kind of refreshing each and every component, thats a lot of re-work
Guess the refresh doesnt happen properly in design studio.
Thanks

Drill in feature in SAP BOBj Design Studio to Webi Report

Hello Guru's ,
do you know if one can drill in to Webi report from Sap BOBJ design studio ..just like dashboard to webi.
i cant seem to find it anywhere.
P.s: moderator can you move this thread to the right discussion if i posted it in the wrong form.

Hi Veronika,
First you have to identify what are your variables on the WEBI prompt. If you have created the WEBI report based on a BEX Query, the variable names would be the BEX variable technical names.
Then you just have to add &lsS<VARIABLENAME>=<VALUE> at the end of the URL string.
For example:
&lsSENTITY= VALUE
&lsSTIME = VALUE
&lsSACCOUNT = VALUE
So the test URL would be: http://servername:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sIDType=CUID&iDocID=Afkcg9PzltNKtz7LEzNGHdY&NAII=N&lsSENTITY=VALUE&lsSTIME=VALUE
&lsSACCOUNT=VALUE
To get BPC configured you have to follow these steps:
Go to the Administration Client -> Application -> Drill Throughs -> Add Drill Through
Name your new Drill Throug and on the second screen type in:
URL: http://servername:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sIDType=CUID&iDocID=Afkcg9PzltNKtz7LEzNGHdY&NAII=N
URL Parameters // Mapping Source // Property/Value
lsSENTITY           // ENTITY                 // ID
lsSTIME               // TIME                     // ID
lsSACCOUNT      // ACCOUNT           // ID
Hope it helps!
Best regards,

Design Studio 1.3 - Concern

Hello Community,
With the release of Design studio 1.3 - the client expectation has gone up. There are few question that need to be addressed.
How feasible is Design Studio 1.3 over SAP Dashboard designer in adopting and in implementation ?
If the client is having only BW with them without any BI/BOBJ landscape in picture, can design studio 1.3 be a wiser choice over Dashboard designer? If Yes then why ?
In BW landscape what need to be done to get mobile access of design studio dashboard ?
Does Design studio support Data caching for offline report access and for faster report access - considering back-end as BW not running on SAP HANA ?
How complex is the coding with respect to custom development ?
Awaiting detailed answers.
Regards
Kumar

Kumar:
How feasible is Design Studio 1.3 over SAP Dashboard designer in adopting and in implementation ?
It depends on your requirements and needs. SAP has said many times this year if your data source is BW, HANA or a universe that Design Studio supports, start with Design Studio. Otherwise, per SAP, you have an automatic migration project.
Q: "If the client is having only BW with them without any BI/BOBJ landscape in picture, can design studio 1.3 be a wiser choice over Dashboard designer? If Yes then why ?"
A: How would they use Dashboard Designer in BW only? Where would they deploy? Not following.
See previous answer re: automatic migration project if you start with dashboarding on BW.
Q: In BW landscape what need to be done to get mobile access of design studio dashboard ?
A: BW only? Question came up at ASUG Annual Conference. In the SAP Enterprise portal there is a Design Studio iview and a portal mobility pack
Q: Does Design studio support Data caching for offline report access and for faster report access - considering back-end as BW not running on SAP HANA ?
A: It does not support offline today.
Q: How complex is coding?
A: I am not a coding expert, but I am able to apply SDK components. We heard customers at conference say they deploy without coding too. If you know JavaScript, you will be comfortable with Design Studio is what I have heard.

Need Information of how to Consume/Execute Planning Function & Planning Sequence in Design Studio

Dear Colleague,
We are trying to have a PoC demonstrating BW planning function and Planning sequence in SAP Business Objects Design Studio.
1. In the process, we have built our own Planning function and Planning sequences in our BW system and they are working as per expectation in the BW system.
2. We added the Planning function and Planning Sequence on to the Design Studio App.
But now how to we add these Planning function and Planning sequence on to the Dashboard.
Is there any container to add these planning objects on to the dashboard.
Or how to execute or Consume these Planning functions and sequences in Design Studio dashboard.
And any Document or Information in detail would definitely help a lot.
Please answer the question underlined.
Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Mustafa,
Thanks for replying!
But Since this is an Internal project. We are already using Version 1.3.
Solving double purpose of evaluating the tool and coming up with the application as well.
As I said in my previous description, we were able to add Planning Functions and Planning Sequences on to Design Studio using menu options available.
But not sure of how to consume or execute them in the app. To get the rows of records, change values, Save and Transfer values as we do it with the Planning function with BW backend.
Thanks,
Vijay

Design Studio on HANA - HCP or AWS?

Hello community,
Has anyone had experience with hosting Design Studio on an XS engine in HCP?
We are looking to host Design studio on HANA but are not sure which solution to pick to host it.
This is our scenario:
Data source: XML files through an external webservice, weekly upload, less that 1GB of data
ETL Tool: Data services
DB: HANA
Reporting tool: Design Studio on HANA
Display: External website connecting to Design Studio Dashboard and displaying it within an iframe.
The solution will be public facing and therefore needs to be in a productive environment.
From what I have read, it seems possible on AWS. However I am not sure if it is possible with HCP.
Any experience on that?
Thanks

My only experience with this is on AWS - and looking at the PAM https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/012002523100018972812014E I would lean towards AWS; this is what we used during the OpenSAP course with SAP's Jim Rapp
Looking at this thread here HCP is possible with Design Studio but the poster gave up: Connect SAP Design Studio with HANA Cloud Platform | SCN

I am not sure why you want to use Design Studio to deploy Web Intelligence/Dashboards through Mobile
You could use SAP BusinessObjects Mobile to deploy Web Intelligence/Dashboards through iOS/Androids

Problems with changings within Design Studio Report published on BI Mobile App

Hello BI Mobile Experts,
At the moment we are setting up a prototyp for BI Mobile reporting with SAP Business Objects Mobile and the BI Mobile App.
We created a report with Design Studio and published this report without problems within the Mobile Category. This Report was displayed correctly on iPads we are working with.
This week we made some changings within the report (new Crosstab, changings within css file). Unfortunatelly this changings were not displayed within the Mobile App. When we run the report local on the desktop within Design Studio everything works fine and is displayed correctly. It seems like the iPad is caching the report and doesn't get the new definitions, because after uninstalling the complete app from the iPad and installing it again, the report is displayed correctly.
Does anybody of you have same issues and is knowing how to solve that?
Thank you and best regards,
Gerardo

Hi Emre
I recall when I installed DS on our BI 4.1 SP2 system, the Analysis Application Service is not added to the Adaptive Processing Server (APS) automatically, I had to manually include the service into the APS for it to work correctly.
To make the dashboards visible to the BI Mobile applications, you must assign the category "Mobile" to the dashboards.

Derek

Mobile Portal and Design Studio

Is it correct to assume that a Design Studio application could be presented on a mobile device using only the Mobile EP and the BW, without the need for the BO BI 4 platform?

Portal is a broader term which is a container of all the assets and pages and is a web portal.
Sitestudio is a tool provided by WC Content which is used to create Content Presenter Templates. These templates consists of region and element definitions which are used as a template to have data in them.
Thanks

Design Studio App gets document expired status -- users can't open dashboard

Dear Community,
Recently some people in our company began getting messages like "document has expired". Which is strange since you cannot save design studio apps offline. Can anyone please tell me how to get rid of this? Because of these messages people cannot access their dashboards.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Niels

Hello Niels,
You are right - I apologize for my mistake.

Parameter Value passing issue to Web i report from Design Studio APP

Hi all,
I am trying to pass values to 2 parameters in a web I report called DIM1_REPORT and DIM2_REPORT. The values with space for example, Computer Sciences Corporation is getting passed as Computer\Sciences\Corporation Looks like the space is getting replaced with \ and as the values doesn't match the database values, no results are being retrieved. I tried using Convert.urlEncode function as well. But no luck still having same issue. Below is the URL,
"http://servername:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sIDType=CUID&iDocID=AWD5NloJ4rVKoi2Y8m89GY0"+
"&lsMDIM1_REPORT=" + GLOBAL_SCRIPTS_1.DIM1_FILTER_SCRIPT() +
"&lsMDIM2_REPORT=" + GLOBAL_SCRIPTS_1.DIM2_FILTER_SCRIPT()
Has any one faced this issue and have a solution for this? Appreciate any help on this
Thanks
Nithin

Hi Mustafa,
Thanks for the response.
I tried to replace the \ with %20 using the following code
Convert.replaceAll(GLOBAL_SCRIPTS_1.DIM1_FILTER_SCRIPT(), "\ ", "%20");
But getting error in the script editor saying
I think \ is causing this issue. If I use any other character other than \ in search expression its not throwing any error in script editor. Any idea is \ considered as delimiter/break in design studio?
Any other way to fix this issue in design studio?
Thanks,
Nithin
