Different values between Rich Client and Web Intelligence

Hi all,
our landscape is BO Edge 4.1 SP2 Patch 5
we just create a report in Web Intelligence with a query bics from BW
We discovered that sometimes the report retrives fake values from BW: the same report refreshed in Rich Client shows correct values.
BW data are frozen (updated only once a day)
We tried to:
- save report with Rich Client and published it in the public folder (but Web Intelligence still shows wrong data)
- upgrade Java Virtuale Machine to the latest release
- looking for system and BO log without any clue
- looking for SAP note (some info only related to BI 3.1)
Workaround: issue disappear only restarting BO SIA
Can you help us?
Any idea?
Regards.

Have you seen Web Intelligence and Oracle Java Runtime Environment Known Issues
There is a wiki inside the blog
I wonder too if you might get a faster, better response in the Web Intelligence space

Inconsistent date formats between Rich Client and HTML client

Hey All,
Just wondering if anyone has come across an issue with inconsistent date formats from a universe based on an MS SSAS 2012 database connection in 4.x?
The value of the date is returned as a string from the query but the object data type has been changed to a Date object meaning BusinessObjects should convert the string into a date if the format is correct.
The problem in this is that the date being returned in Rich Client is in dd/MM/yyyy format whereas on the Web Client is in MM/dd/yyyy.
From the Web Client business objects will return a date, however, it is a mix of MDY and DMY format.
i.e. 15th of March will be displayed as 15/03/2014
whereas 12th of March will be displayed as 03/12/2014
All our application servers are configured for English (Australian) regional settings meaning all dates should be in DMY format.
The date in the database is stored as a non-ambiguous yyyy-mm-dd format so it appears the variation is occurring somewhere between the database and BusinessObjects for the Web Client based reports only.
I have also checked the sqlsrv.prm file based format and changed this to DMY but this has also not made a difference.
The same universe in 3.1 and MS SSAS 2008 works correctly but not this one.

Hi
The date in the database is stored as yyyy-mm-dd format.
As per user request.... Set the date format @ the Business layer level. so it will refelct same as in the WebI.
Please find the below link. how to use custom Display option.

Whats the difference between Rich Client and Desktop Client? (BO XI 3.2)

Hello,
maybe someone has a matrix oder something like that?
Thanks for helping...

There are a number of reasons for using Web Intelligence Rich Client to
work with WID documents:
u2022 You want to work with Web Intelligence documents but you are unable
to connect to a CMS (while traveling, for example).
u2022 You want to improve calculation performance: Web Intelligence Rich
Client performs calculations locally, rather than on the server, and local
calculations can perform better than server calculations.
u2022 You want to work with Web Intelligence documents without installing a
CMS or application server.

Pros and Cons between BEx client and Web access

Dear all,
I am quite new to BI 7.0 and have some question about frontend tools.
I am looking for a comparison material describing pros and cons of BEx client application and Web access in BI 7.0.
There are many tools in BEx suite and I am a bit confused about what fuctionality each tool has or what to consider to choose the right tool.
Thanks a lot in advance and appreciate any input.
Regards,
Kazuya

Hello,
Shortly speaking there are 4 tools and you need at least 2 of them:
1. Query Designer: you need it always as this is a tool for defining queries
2. Web Application Designer: you need it if you want create web reports
3. Report Designer: only if you want create formatted reports in web
4. BEx Analyzer: if you want to run queries in Excel (Analyzer is an add-in)

Issue between BW Query and Web Intelligence - CPIC-CALL 'THSAPCMRCV'

Hi all
Receiving the current error when trying to connect BW to BusinessObjects via SAP Integration kit
The error occurs whenever I put more than one dimension in the query. If I put just one dimension, the query will run successfully. I've checked and implemented SAP Note 1032461 but it does not seem to have solved the issue.
BusObj version is 3.1 Service Pack 3, Fix Pack 3.4
Business Warehouse version is 7.01
The complete error message is
A database error occured. The database error text is: Failed to execute MDX query. Reason: Error occurred when starting the parser: timeout during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'. (WIS 10901)
Thanks for your assistance.

Hi Ingo.
Thanks for your assistance, I double checked the work our Basis Guy did and he installed the Unicode 32bit pack, rather than the non unicode 64 bit pack. It now works.
Thanks very much for your help

Difference between Client and Web

hello
i am newbie to EJB, I have started the online tutorials, on this tutorial nothing has mentioned about the difference between application client and Web application.
I am sort of confused why do we have to have both of them?
I know that web application should run from a web browser, but what happens if i ignore the application client?
I am trying to make a simple application to use ejb which connects to a databse and a web application to show the results. Can i just develope ejb and a set of jsp to interact as web application?
could someone help me please
cheers

The difference is simple:
A web client is a so called 'thin client' just displaying the information created and processed somewhere else.
A standalone client is a fat client which uses the ejb only to retrieve data and manages the user interaction by himself.
So a web application is basicly a fat client wich uses a web browser as a display (web browser is a display) thats why you have to implement a set of jsp and servlets which present the data to the user.
I you want e.g. a java program to interact with your beans to get data from the database you will have to code an application client. But it doesn seem like this, so your idea is right. Have fun implementing...

Diference Between Web Intelligence and Web Intelligence Rich Client?

Hey Guys,
Do you know the difference between Web Intelligence and Web Intelligence Rich Client?
I was asked about that but i couldnt help. And i need to make a decision about a Web Intelligence training. I need to decide using one or another.
Thanks
Vegas

Hi Vegas,
The Webintelligence Rich Client (WRC) has all the features of the thin webintelligence client. But WRC makes use of the client processor and memory to do all post query processing while Infoview Webi sends every request to the server for processing.
Thus you won't find any difference between the time taken to retrieve data from the database between these two clients. But there would be huge difference in performance while doing further analysis, formatting with the data. Also you will not need connectivity to the network to do analysis and formatting using the WRC client.
WRC client will help you to just retrieve the data on the fly and let you play around with it while you are traveling with no network connectivity.
Thanks

Diff between Thin client and Rich client

Hi Everyone,
Can someone give me a clear picture of the what is the diff between Thin client and Rich client.
Thanks,
Krishna

Hi,
thick client (rich client) has/stores all the data inside itself
so it can do application processing without the server with data
thin client uses resources from host computer (from server)
and wihtout that you are not able to work with that kind of client
does that answer your question ?

Difference Between BEx Web and Web Intelligence

Hi,
Could someone help me understand why someone would want to choose SAP BW BEx Web over Web Intelligence (apart from license issues)?
Web Inteligence is a very strong tool from a UI point of view and has can do most of the functions that SAP BW BEx Web can. WebI allows users to actually create your own reports.
A couple of drawbacks with WebI
- I can see is that Web Intelligence does not handle SAP BW hiearchies very well (i.e. they are not shown in a hierachical manner).
- WebI holds the data within the report which can mean long run times. BEx Web only brings back data for fields that are shown in the report
I have heard people saying that BEx Web is an OLAP tool and WebI is not. How does this make a difference?
Thanks

Hi,
take a look here:
http://www.sdn.sap.com//irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/d00ae0a1-8086-2d10-118c-f35b8e604bc4
BEx is an OLAP Tool and Web Intelligence for sure not - means that Web Intelligence is not designed for multi-dimensional concepts.

Different order menu c/s and web

On client-server my own menu items are between View and Window.
On the web my own items are at the end after Help.
I want them at the same place as c/s.

Gerrit,
The order in which menu's are shown differs between C/S and Web deployment. You need to open the generated mmb and change the order manually.
Hope this helps,
Jacques

Correlation between BI developer and Web Analyst?

These days, I'm studying to become a business intelligence developer and today I'm reflecting If I need necessary knowledge as a web analyst.
My question is.
Is there a correlation between BI developer and web analyst If yes, should I also gain skills as a web analyst?

Hi Sakura,
The largest part of any analyst role is understanding the clients needs / business requirements and being able to help translate those requirements into functional specifications. The best analysts I have worked with are the ones that know the product
and what it can do. In addition, we will see more business intelligence applications deliver or render results to the web enabled portals like SharePoint 2013.
As a developer the more you understand a clients needs and are able to meet those needs either OOB, third party, or custom code the more valuable you will become in being able to know where the holes are and being able to fill them,

What is the relation between adobe forms and web dynpro

hi
what is the relation between adobe forms and web dynpro

Hi Jyothsna,
Adobe forms are advanced to smartforms and scripts.
Adobe forms are much easier than smartforms they are online forms.
they can be developed online.
Adobe forms : This is another SAP tool designed to create your own forms. The transaction for this is SFP.
How to use them: You can create a sales order form in adobe form and send to the sales reps. Sales reps can fill this form when they are not connected to internet / SAP system. Once they connect to SAP just send an e-mail to a specific user id in outlook. You got to customize and code how do you want to process once you receive this form. This enables you to create orders even when you are not connected to the system. Hence no data loss. This is not how i used though :-). This is just my idea.
What is the difference between Adobe forms and smart forms / scripts.
Smart forms / scripts are used to show the data in SAP. Most likely you will use these to print / display some kind of reciepts / forms. Many companies must be using this for hard copies / ALE / EDI or to transfer data from SAP to others.
Adobe forms are used to post data into SAP from SAP too. So this has an additional feature compared to smartforms.

Web dynpro in one of the component in NETWEAVER.
Web Dynpro is the SAP NetWeaver programming model for user interfaces and provides support when developing the Web representation of business applications. The Web Dynpro model is based on the Model View Controller paradigm, and has the following features that build on the classic dynpro model:
·        Clear separation of business logic and display logic
·        Uniform metamodel for all types of user interfaces
·        Execution on a number of client platforms.
·        Extensive platform independence of interfaces

Difference between Golden Client and Master Client

Dear,
What is the Difference between Golden Client and Master Client?
Thanx & Regards,
Mohammad Nabi,
[email protected]

Golden Client is similar or is the the same as Development Client, which should not be used for testing.
Master Client ???
Note on SAP Landscape:
Landscape is like a server system or like a layout of the servers or some may even call it the architecture of the servers viz. SAP is divided into three different landscape DEV, QAS and PROD.
- DEV would have multiple clients for ex: 190- Sandbox, 100- Golden, 180- Unit Test.
- QAS may again have multiple clients for ex: 300- Integration Test, 700 to 710 Training.
- PROD may have something like a 200 Production.
These names and numbers are the implementer's discreet on how they want it or they have been using in their previous implementations or how is the client's business scenario.
Now whatever you do in the Sandbox doesn't affect the other servers or clients. Whenever you think you are satisfied with your configuration and you think you can use it moving forward, you RE-DO it in the golden client (remember, this is a very neat and clean client and you cannot use it for rough usage). As you re-do everything that you had thought was important and usable, you get a transport request pop up upon saving every time. You save it under a transport request and give your description to it. Thus the configuration is transported to the Unit Test client (180 in this example).
You don't run any transaction or even use the SAP Easy Access screen on the 100 (golden) client. This is a configuration only client. Now upon a successful transport by the Basis guy, you have all the configuration in the Testing client, just as it is in the Golden client. The configuration remains in sync between these two clients.
But in the Testing client you can not even access SPRO (Display IMG) screen. It's a transaction only client where you perform the unit test. Upon a satisfactory unit test, you move the good configuration to the next SERVER (DEV). The incorrect or unsatisfactory configuration is corrected in Golden (may again as well be practised in the sandbox prior to Golden) and accordingly transported back to 180 (Unit Test) until the unit test affected by that particular config is satisfactory.
The Golden client remains the 'database' (if you wanna call it that) or you may rather call it the 'ultimate' reference client for all the good, complete and final configuration that is being used in the implementation.
In summary:
Landscape : is the arrangement for the servers
IDES : is purely for education purpose and is NOT INCLUDED in the landscape.
DEVELOPMENT ---> QUALITY -
> PRODUCTION
DEVELOPMENT : is where the the consultants do the customization as per the company's requirement.
QUALITY : is where the core team members and other members test the customization.
PRODUCTION : is where the live data of the company is recorded.
A request will flow from Dev->Qual->Prod and not backwards.
1. Sandbox server: In the initial stages of any implementation project, You are given a sandbox server where you do all the configuration/customization as per the companies business process.
2. Development Server: - Once the BBP gets signed off, the configuration is done is development server and saved in workbench requests, to be transported to Production server.
3. Production Server: This is the last/ most refined client where the user will work after project GO LIVE. Any changes/ new development is done is development client and the request is transported to production.
These three are landscape of any Company. They organized their office in these three way. Developer develops the program in Development server and then transport it to test server. In testing server tester check/test the program and then transport it to Production Server. Later it will deploy to client from production server.
Presentaion Server- Where SAP GUI has.
Application Server - Where SAP Installed.
Database Server - Where Database installed.

Rajesh Banka
