Deski Report Issue

1. I have a requirement in which I need to show a column values with (lets say A), checkboxes as below
CB a1                              CB a2                   CB a3                      CBa4
CB a5                              CB a6                   Cb a7                      CB a8
where CB  is a checkbox. Is this possible in DeskI report if so please let me know your views/suggestions.  Note: No of column A values are not known in advance.
Thanks in Advance,
Suresh Aluri.

Created a condtion in Query panel as COl is not null so that the required col doesn't have any null values

  • Red Blue issue with published DeskI Report in InfoView

    Hi everyone,
    i'm expieriencing a strange behaviour with my published DeskI Reports.
    I'm using logos in my report and they work just fine... in my full client. As soon as I publish them to InfoView and open them up in the browser, then somehow the color red and blue interchange. Red becomes blue and vice versa...
    My System consists of:
    BOE R 3.1 SP2
    Win Server 2008
    DeskI and WebI
    Has anyone expirienced the same issues?
    Thanks and kr,
    Nils

    Hi Stratos,
    so far everything is just fine. Hope you are doing great too.
    my IE version is: 7.0.5730.13
    Tomcat version: 5.5.20
    If I click on the logos in InfoView, nothing happens.
    I tested 3 different ways to implement them:
    1) via link; pictures shows up, but again with the red blue issue
    2) as an object; pictures shows up; also w/ the red blue issue
    3) inserted a cell, and pasted the picture in it, pictures shows up; also w/ the red blue issue
    The strange thing is, that this issue only appears in the browser.
    Thanks,
    Nils

  • Page size issues while saving Deski report to PDF

    Hi All,
    While saving the Deski report as PDF, the page size changes randomly.
    The workflow is:
    Created a report in Deski.
    -- Chekced in File | Page setup the zoom size(Fit to Print | Adjust to) is 100% and the paper size is A4.
    -- Saved it as PDF.
    -- In Acrobat Reader 7.0, opened the save report, the size of paper is 8.5*11, the normal paper size.
    -- In the report in theFile | Page setup, changed the zoom size to anything less than 100% (e.g changed to 90%) whereas the paper size is A4.
    -- Saved it as PDF.
    -- In the Acrobar Reader noticed that the page size increases to some random size(e.g 9.18*12.99).
    When priting the Document the printer changes the same to A4 resulting in truncating of the content.
    The page size should be same but the content size should reduce.
    The issue can be reproduced in 6.5 and XIR2 as well.
    Is there any workaround for this that the size of the content decrease rather than increasing the page size??

    Hi Sarbhjeet,
    Thank you for all your help.
    Further to our investigation we found that this is known issue and it is a limitation of the Product, it wont be fixed.
    The ADAPT for the same is ADAPT00743734
    It is reproducible with XI 3.1 as well.
    FYI...........
    1. PDF Engine will get the rendering information from the busobj. If there is a character size differences between PDF and busobj, there are chances that you may see bigger cells or reduced data in PDF.
    2. In the report when Fit to 1 page by 1 wide in Pagesetup->FitToPrint, the page size will be set to the fit the complete report in busobj.
    3. When save as PDF, this information (increased page size, due to settings in 2) will be sent to PDF Engine. The Engine will try to fit the size into the available standard PDF size (based on Print settings and other combinations).If it tries to fit the report (enhanced page size) to the available size, then we loose lot of information depending on the number of columns and rows.
    4. Shrinking the report in busobj may not feasible.
    When we change the page size in Fit to Print (either Adjust to % or Fit to ) , in reporter it changes the page size instead of changing the rendering to fit to the page.
    When save the report to PDF, it gets the information with extended page size. So we see the enhanced page in PDF.
    Also in order to implement the shrink (instead of changing the Page size), each cell has to be shrieked to the percentage of the reduced page (compared to the original page size). It becomes more complicated when charts come to picture.
    I hope the above information helps.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Anisa

  • Deski reports performance issue

    After an upgrade from BOXI Release2-SP3 to BOXI Release3.1-SP3 all the deski reports are very slow when we try to refresh them using Infoview.
    For example, a specific deski report needs two minutes from Desktop Intelligence and twenty!!! minutes from Infoview. The same behavior have all the migrated deski reports. Do you have any idea/workaround??

    hi,

  • Issue in Infoview while refreshing DeskI report with prompts

    Hi all,
    When I tried to refresh a WebI report whose Data Source is Universe, which is having some prompts, the prompt window was displaying the prompt values that were used to run the report earlier. Similarly when I tried to refresh a few DeskI reports whose Data Sources are free hand sql/ Universe -> Customized SQL which were also having prompts, the prompt window is not showing me prompt values (especially prompts with texts) that were used to run the report earlier.
    Now my issue is how to display the prompt values that were used  in the prompts earlier while refreshing for DeskI (Data Source: Free hand SQl/Universe -> Customized SQL) Reports
    Any help is highly aprreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Suresh.

    Hi Suresh,
    Noticed you still have no answer.
    For Deski prompts, only the last value selected is 'remembered', same for freehand as for a universe query.
    It does get 'erased' however when you purge the data or when you select a 'wrong' value resulting in no data.
    This is the basic difference, webi will remember even though you purged
    (you can specifically purge those to if you want to), so not the freehand sql.
    It is possible however to use the @prompt() syntax and pre-build the possible list of values if the list is not too big.
    Hope this helps,
    Marianne

    Hello,
    as you refer to Deski I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Desktop Intelligence|SAP BusinessObjects Desktop Intelligence; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to the creation and design of Desktop Intelligence documents such as universe connectivity, prompts, charting, formatting, filter, and formulas.It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all Desktop Intelligence queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Best regards,

  • Formula Issue in Deski Report

    I need to create a formula in deski reports to sum up the column specific records Excluding Negative values.
    i.e., If there are negative values in the column , then they should show in the column but when sum is calculated , negative value should not be included in that....!!
    e.g.,,
    Column1   Column2   Column3
    a                23              13                
    b               -16               3
    c                10               -7
    Total        33               16
            (excludes -16)    (excludes -7)
    I have tried these combinations but in vain.....
    1) = If Sign(column value name) <> -1 Then Sum(column value name)
    2) =If (column value name >= 0) Then Sum(column value name)
    Else Sum(column value name) = Sum(column value name) - (column value name)
    Please help asap.... Thanks in advance

    Hi
    Try below.
    Create two variables\formulas as per requirement
    1. For totals without negative values
    =Sum(if (Column2) >= 0 Then Column2 Else 0)
    2. For totals only with negative values
    =Sum(if (column2) <= 0 Then column2 Else 0)

  • Not able to save deski report as PDF through infoview

    Hi,
    when I try to save a deski report as PDF through infoview error appears as:
    Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed. Please contact business administrator.[RCIRAS0546] (Error: INF)
    we are using BOXI 3.1/ SP2.
    Please let me know the possible solution for this.
    Thanks
    DLN

    Are you migrated from earlier version to 3.1.
    YES,
    here you go,
    Have a back door way to fix the problem...
    We were having the same issue with DeskI documents while upgrading from XIR2 to XIR3.
    It's tied to documents that are set to Refresh on open
    If you import the report, set it to "not" refresh then publish it, test it and it should run fine. Once you get it working correctly you can republish the report again and turn the "Refresh on Open" back on.
    It should work fine from that point on.
    Thank You!!

  • Large DeskI report in Infoview

    Hi,
    I am getting error u2018No server was available to process the request. Please try again later. (Error RFC 00101) (Error: INF)" while opening a DeskI report in Infoview (BOXIR2 SP4).
    Same error appears while viewing scheduled instances of this report. There are more than 1 million rows in the report. WebI report with same data runs properly. No issue in DeskI full client.
    I applied the workarounds mentioned in the SAP notes 1199258, 1199491, etc. Also tried using dedicated servers for the report; no impact.
    Please advice.

    Hi Hitesh,
    Following information might help you to resolve the issue.
    Issue might be related to timeouts on the connection server.
                                                                                    Please login into CMC and go Home>servers , locate Input and Output File servers and modify timeout of each to be 60 minutes. Default is 10 mins                                                                               
    This 10min default value can be modified in the registry as well:                                                                  
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suit 11.5\File Server\Instances\input.<machine name>                                  
    There is a registry key called u201CServerMaxIdleTimeu201D. Modify it and change the decimal value to 90 (default is 10, max is 90).                                                                               
    After this change is made, please restart CMS and FRS servers and test same again. Please let me know the results.

  • Scheduling deski report to html format fails

    We're running boxi 3.1 SP4 on a Linux redhat machine. When scheduling a deski report to html format to unmanaged disk, the report stays in processing state for 10 minutes and then it goes to failed state with error "Object failed to run due to an error while processing on the Job Server" . Additionally I get the message "The scheduler component failed the object identified by <jobnumber>. The job associated with the object was unresponsive."
    Scheduling to other formats works fine. I have tracing on but there's not any hint in the logfiles. The htm file and it's subdirectories are created on the temporary location /data/procSched/<name>.DesktopIntelligenceJobServer but it's not copied to the configured destination. It is not an issue with permissions, the server has write permissions to the directory.

    Hi Clive,
    since your are in XI R2 you can only try to modify the layout of your report. In XI 3.x a new feauture was introduced, which allows the user to choose between keeping the layout or facilitating further processing in Excel when exporting a document in Excel.

  • Export to excel using deski report

    Hi,
    We are using BOXIR2 SP4 version. We have a deski report that generates excel output file and it was working fine until yesterday. Today that report successfully exported excel output file, but I was not able to open excel file and it gives me below error:
    Excel found unreadable content in 'abc.xls'. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes.
    Now, if I select Yes, then it opens blank sheet.
    I found that today there was a new record in the report for new customer. When I filtered out that customer record it works fine. So I thought may be something wrong with that customer.
    After that I filtered out 10 existing customers and then also I was able to open excel sheet with new customer record as well. So, I tried few other things to resolve the issue, if I reduce the length of Customer_name field from 35 to 30 by using SubStr(), it works fine. If I add a new field Customer ID to the left of Customer_name field, it works fine.
    This is a strange issue. I have suggested our client the above option that have worked. But if client is not OK with it, I will still have to find the root cause and resolve this issue.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Nikhil

    with your product version there are little options you have.
    1. Upgrade to the latest SP and patch on XIR2 (SP6, fp6.4) and re-test
    2. Upgrade to current product release.
    3. figure out what has changed and how in the report and reverse those changes.

  • Retrieve underlying SQL query for deski report via java SDK in BOXIR2

    Hi all,
    I am trying to retrieve underlying SQL queries of a deski report in BOXIR2. However I find the error as
    oDataProvider = oDocumentInstance.getDataProviders().getItem(i1);               
    System.out.print(oDataProvider.getName());
    oSQLDataProvider = (SQLDataProvider) oDataProvider;
    oSQLContainer_root = oSQLDataProvider.getSQLContainer();
    But "This feature is not supported for desktop Intelligence " exception has occured.
    I am running the same query for Webi, and I did not find any issue . After several time spending in google, it appears to me that this code is supported by webi only. But "This feature is not supported for desktop Intelligence " exception has occured.
    Please help me to find out the solution in java SDK. If its not supported by Java SDK, then could you please provide me any workaround , e.g. any macro . Any help !!
