Disable Web Intelligence Preferences in InfoView

Is it possible to disable web Intelligence preferences in InfoView?
We want that users only have the ability to change their password, and nothing else.
thanks in advance,
Diana

Hi -
It is possible to disable preferences completely. Once you disabled preferences then users will loose password change privileges as well. To disable preferences follow below steps. Thanks!
1) Log into CMC as admin
2) Go to Applications
3) Right click on InfoView Application and select user security.
4) Click on Assign Security
5) Click on Advanced tab
6) Click on  Add/Remove rights
7) Go to Application --> InfoView
8) Disable Change User's Preferences.
Regards,
Anesh B

  • Error: RWI 00223 when trying to view a Web Intelligence report in Infoview

    Hi,
    I have a problem when I try to view a webi report in infoview, I get the error message: "Could not get page number. (Error RWI 00223) (Error: INF)". It is possible to modify the report, and run the report from the development application.
    I am using BOXI release 2, SP 5 on a windows server. Tomcat. Java 1.5.
    I have tried to find an answer in the forums and have for instance tried to increase the heap size, it did not help. I have also read something about replacing jar files in the desktoplaunch folder in tomcat. Though, these files are not really covered by the ones found in ..\Business Objects\common\3.5\java\lib. So it does not feel like I can just replace them?
    Do you have any other ideas?
    Thanks in advance.
    BR, Emma

    Hi Emma,
    Thanks for the information.
    Could you please review the following solution and information.
    BusinessObjects XI Release 2 is deployed in a distributed environment. Only the WCA.NET component of BusinessObjects XI Release 2 is installed on the IIS server.
    When attempting to view or edit a Web Intelligence document in the Java Report Panel, a "WIJ2002" error occurs.
    This error does not occur when BusinessObjects XI Release 2 is fully installed on the IIS server.
    Cause
    The TraceLog.dll file is not installed when only the Web Component Adapter is installed on the IIS server.
    Resolution
    Copy the TraceLog.dll file from a full installation of BusinessObjects XI Release 2 to the computer that has only the WCA component installed.
    Background
    This error occurs when the Java applet attempts to send a POST request. The IIS error log files show an HTTP 500 error with POST request type on the cdzisapi.wis file.
    The detailed error message thrown by the Java applet in the browser is similar to the following:
    "http://excalibur:80/businessobjects/enterprise115/cdzisapi.wis? java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://excalibur:80/businessobjects/enterprise115/cdzisapi.wis at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin.net.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at com.businessobjects.wp.cpi.CPIConnection.postRequest(CPIConnection.java:440) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLViaHttp.loadScript(XMLViaHttp.java:144) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLViaHttp.initInstance(XMLViaHttp.java:971) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLSession.load(XMLSession.java:157) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLSession.load(XMLSession.java:45) at com.businessobjects.wp.om.OMSessionLoader.load(OMSessionLoader.java:29) at com.businessobjects.wp.tc.TCMain.initClient(TCMain.java:1431) at com.businessobjects.wp.tc.thread.InitAppletRunner.run(InitAppletRunner.java:81) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) at com.businessobjects.wp.cpi.CPIConnection.postRequest(CPIConnection.java:444) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLViaHttp.loadScript(XMLViaHttp.java:144) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLViaHttp.initInstance(XMLViaHttp.java:971) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLSession.load(XMLSession.java:157) at com.businessobjects.wp.xml.XMLSession.load(XMLSession.java:45) at com.businessobjects.wp.om.OMSessionLoader.load(OMSessionLoader.java:29) at com.businessobjects.wp.tc.TCMain.initClient(TCMain.java:1431) at com.businessobjects.wp.tc.thread.InitAppletRunner.run(InitAppletRunner.java:81) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Additional info:case 302675238 .

  • Error: WIS 10901 in Web Intelligence XI in infoview

    Hi, expert!
    Now I am facing a strange problem, all my webi reports against universe created using Infocube/Bex query (basically SAP data source) get a error message in infoview -A database error occured. The database error text is: A runtime exception has occured. (License key check failed. Check that you are licensed to access SAP data sources). (WIS 10901).  However  all those reports can run in webi rich client without any problem.
    Any clues whether this is a license issue or something else?
    Best regards!!
    Thanks

    It sounds to me that the license key for the integration Kit for SAP solutions has expired on your BO server. Make sure to renew it.

  • Logon failed error when launching Web Intelligence from InfoView

    After changing the Web Intelligence preferences in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0 Java InfoView to launch the desktop or rich client option, I get a "logon failed" error message. However, when I launch Web Intelligence Rich Client from 'Start > Programs >...' directly, the same logon information is successful. The logon is set to use Enterprise authentication which is the same logon information used to launch InfoView and Web Intelligence.
    Why does the logon fail when I launch Web Intelligence from InfoView?
    Edited by: Ana on Mar 31, 2009 3:43 PM

    I deleted the report completely and rebuilt it from scratch, and also added names for the data table and data set generated within the project and finally, success!
    Jason, thanks so much for your help which got me moving on this again.

  • Web Intelligence export to Excel misses some fields

    Hi,
    Our system is running BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 with SP3 (no fix packs).  The behavior I'm seeing is when exporting a particular Webi doc to Excel. 
    Here is some background info for the document I am attempting to export to Excel. The doc contains a section and the section has a crosstab including description header cells.  I have added an additional cell at the top of the section with section specific information in it- nothing that strange yet.  If my InfoView (Web Intelligence) preferences is set so that 'Select a priority for saving to MS Excel' is set to 'Prioritize easy data processing in Excel' then the exported document is missing the additional cell at the top of the section (all other data is fine).  If the setting is set to 'Prioritize the formatting of the documents' then the Excel export works perfectly.
    My question is why would this be?  The cell is just a simple dimension (string).  My only fear about changing this Excel setting is that there is a warning in the 'Business Objects XI 3.1 Release Notes' guide.  It states
    Large Web Intelligence documents should be saved to Excel format using the "Prioritize data processing" option". The generated Excel might not open if the document is large and saved with the "prioritize formatting" option.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    We are experiencing similar issue using BO 4 SP2 Patch 10 when exporting to Excel with setting 'Prioritize easy data processing in Excel'.  Exporting data worked after changing WEBI settings to 'Prioritize the formatting of the documents'
    Documentation regarding this option states following:
    "Under "Select a priority for saving to MS Excel", select the option that best fits your needs:
    u2022 If you want to display the data in a format that is similar to working in Web Intelligence, then
    choose Prioritize the formatting of the documents.
    u2022 If you want to display the data in a text format, then choose Prioritize easy data processing in
    Excel."
    If I understand this explanation correctly then both options should have extracted the same content to Excel. Difference should have been how the contents were formatted and should not have caused loss of information.
    I logged support ticket for this issue.

  • Can't create new Web Intelligence document

    My company is migrating server from BO 5.1.8 to BOXI R2. Migration was fine with the exception of a few issues.
    FIrst, no one has the ability to create a new Web Intelligence document in InfoView, not even administrator although permissions are there for Web Intelligence under the BusinessObjects Enterprise Applications on the main screen of the CMC.
    Second, when a user attempts to change the parameters for a report, by clicking on the "prompts" link, they are presented with a server error mentioning that the document cannot be opened since it was saved with "Write Reservation Password". Would this password need to be removed in BO 5.1.8 and then the migration redone or can this password be removed post migration?
    I appreciate any help or advice. I have three other things I am working on and need to get these things resolved.
    thanks

  • Not able to see Web Intelligence in Infoview

    Hi Experts!
    We are on SAP BI7 and BOXI 3.0  and have installed the Integration kit successfully.
    Everything seems to be fine as in , I was able to configure SAP authentication and am able to log into Infoview with my SAP credentials.
    But the problem is after I have built my universe, when I log into Infoview with my SAP credentials, I am unable to see the option 'Web Intelligence'  (ubder Documnet list -New) to create a WI document.
    But when I am logging in as Admintrator I can see that option.
    Can you please let me know what is it that I am missing?
    Is it a problem with some authorisation?My SAP BW system has been enabled to accept tickets.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Sreeranjani.

    hi,
    when you import SAP roles they become User groups in BusinessObjects Enterprise. By default a new User groups is ONLY part of the group Everyone which in a default installation does not have enough rights to create a Web Intelligence report. You need to assign the necessary rights on the BusinessObjects system to those user groups

  • Need help for publishing web intelligence document (universe) into InfoView

    Post Author: mirage
    CA Forum: Publishing
    Hello all,
    I need help for publishing web intelligence document (universe) into InfoView.
    can't find this information in Business Objects Designer's Guide and in Business Objects Administrator Guide.
    Can somebody give short instructions how can I do it?
    Regards, Slava

    If the change between the 2 types of data has to happen dynamically during run time them
    1. Use 2 dataproviders
         a. Current
         b. Historic
    2. Merge the 2 dimensions
    3. Use Webi variable to switch between the measure of the current and historic universe
    Ex  if [year] < 2010 then historic.[expense] else current.[expense]
    Hope this helps,

  • Infoview new web intelligence document problem

    I select a universe. Then the Data tab shows the universe. The universe is displayed just like I see it in Designer. I drag a class to the 'Result Objects' pane. I click 'Run Query'. I get a 'Web Intelligence' popup with the message 'Some objects are no longer available in the universe...' If I drag the individual objects, I get the same error. The universe contains 2 classes. The other class does not give any errors. Has anyone seen this bahavior?
    Bill

    Integrity Check showed errors. I fixed all but 2 of them. That was sufficient to fix the original problem.
    I do have a question about the Integrity Check Results. The universe consists of 2 tables (views, actually). They are not connected by any joins. The Integrity Check Results says both are 'not linked th anything'. Is that related to the absence of joins? Or is it something else?

  • Viewing Web Intelligence Documents Using Interactive Format

    When I go to the Advanced Rights screen in Central Management Console, this right is set to Granted:
    Enable interactive HTML viewing (if license permits)  
    When I log in to InfoView to set my Web Intelligence Documents Preferences, I do not see "Interactive" as an option under "Select a view format". 
    Do I need a special license to enable interactive HTML viewing?  We have the Premium version of BusinessObjects.

    Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:
    BI Platform
    That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all BOE queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Thank you for your understanding,

  • Error message in Web Intelligence:

    Dear Experts,
    At a client location we use Web Intelligence as a front end tool. We have build a new report on an existing universe, which worked very well for 2 days on dev. Today we got a error message when the data is refreshed in the WebI report (infoview). The error seems to be popping up at random. Please view the below error message:
    Error MDDataSetBW.GetCellData.
    Systemerror in application
    CL_RSR_MDX_BXML_FLATTENING and form GET_DIMENSION_MEMBERS-00- (WIS 10901)
    We use SSO authentication based on SAP user accunts.
    System details:
    Version of Business Objects?                          BO XI 3.1 FP2.4  
    Version of SAP Integration KIt?                         IK FP2.4                                                                         
    Version of your BW System?                           SAP NW 7.0 EhP.1 SR1                                                                               
    Version of SAP client?                                      SAP Gui Win7.10 (Comp 4)
    Your help is highly appreciated!
    Best regards,
    Wart van Hoek

    Hi Anil,
    thank you for the hint. Anyway I already checked if a Universe refresh was needed, but it didn't.
    My error is:
    Error MDDataSetBW.GetCellData.
    Systemerror in PROGRAM
    CL_RSR_MDX_BXML_FLATTENING and form GET_DIMENSION_MEMBERS-00- (WIS 10901)
    What I noticed is that it occours only if I access the report through SSO with a restricted user. Instead if I run it with a full authorization user, it works fine.
    Moreover running corresponding MDX on MDXTEST (with the restricted user) I get a void structure (only colum name but no rows). So think there is also a trouble in how authorization are assigned.
    So my main main doubt is why I get this error instead a "No authorization".
    Thank you in advance.
    Kind regards.
    Roberto.

  • WIH 00013 time out error while viewing a BO Web intelligence report

    Hi,
    I have a BO web intelligence report. While viewing the report i get WIH 00013 time out error. I have another report with everything same as this one except for one filter condition. That is working fine but former is giving me an error.
    I tried changing the timeout values to 120 minutes from 90 minutes in connection server setting but didn't work.
    Also when i run the same report by scheduling it in CMC and format as PDF, then it works fine. This error only comes when i try to view the report directly from infoview.
    Please let me know if there is any other way to resolve.
    Thanks!
