Document custom format changes for every report

HI Experts,
We have been developing no of reports for a day using WEBI Rich Client. In our reports we have few measures which are holding decimal values which are not displaying when user creates a new report as per standard number format there is no decimal values.
We select each column of that measures and create custom format as "#,###.##" and add it. But ! when user creates a new report, that created report doesn't have previously created custom format to display deciamal values.
Is there anyway that we can create custom format and make it permenent and as a default.
Regards,
Suresh

Amr's suggestion is right.
By the way ... if desired number format is not displayed when you use the option Object Format->Number check in Universe Designer menu Tools->Options Language and check Migration Forced checkbox.
Sometimes happens that there is no #,##0.00 format but #.##0,00 and that's because of the language used for the universe, I guess.

How do I close multiple files in Preview on OSX10.8 without having to click on "Revert Changes" for every file?

I opened, say, 100 PNG files that were saved in a landscape format. So I selected all files, typed Cmd+L (to rotate left), and then viewed them for a while. After I was finished, I tried to close all of them at once, but found I had to click on "Revert Changes" for every file?
In Snow Leopard, an option would come up allowing you to discard changes for ALL open files. Here, I cannot seem to find that option (if it even exists). Does anyone have an idea?

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ General ▹ Ask to keep changes when closing documents: Off

1099M - 2008 Legal changes for 1099 Reporting

Hello experts,
I have been using program RFW1099M via Sapscript form to generate the 1099M. Based on note 1279366 on 2008 legal changes for 1099 reporting, sap provided the 1099MISC form in Smartforms.
I don't use Smartforms. Is there any sap 1099M program provided using Smartforms ?
The sapscript form i currently have looks the same as the 2008 1099Misc. So I don't know why i have to use Smartforms. Pls let me know what you think ?
Thanks

Also can you put an outline or a box around the 6 lines of text that you input.
Thank you

Ottoman,
As Peter says, you can use a Table for this. You do not, however, need to enter two dates to fill with a series of dates. Dates are an exception to the general Fill rule. Just enter one, and fill down to get successive dates.
Other exception available:
a single cell is sufficient for every entries ending with a number :
president1
thief2
king3
behave this way.
Durations behave like numbers : two cells are required.

Can thresholds change for EWA-Report ??

Hi All,
Is it possible to change the thresholds for EWA report in solution manager??
Regards,
Neni

Hi,
The EWA/SLR adjusts its reported KPIs according to the product it
detects. See SAP Note 721643 for a list of KPIs/Products.
According to this, the SLR follows the EWA and stops collecting the
R/3 related KPIs. They will stay in the report until they run out of
the reported time frame of 12 months. There is no way to delete these
manually in an easy way without loosing all other KPI histories as well.
As reported in the note 721643, the missing KPI's cannot be collected
anymore.
Next level support have provided the following information about getting
this information:
There is something similar using the Central Performance History (CPH)
from CCMS. Customer could collect the Dialog Reponse Times per instance
but there is no node in CCMS for the complete System.
It is not exactly like KPIs, but it is the only possibility we can offer
you. I have attached a screenshot of and example so that you can check.
For details about setting up CPH wihtin SLR please see following note:
872569- Central Performance History and SL Reporting
Hope this helps.

Customizing a query for a report according to login user name

Hi, I am new to the portal, so I have a urgent question:
In my company we have local departments who are supposed to use
the same report but only with their own data.
I have a table with all users and their parameters (e.g.
username + deptno) and might be able to create a function which
gets the username (found that in one of the standard packages)
and retrieves the parameter from the database via SELECT. The
function should then return the parameter to be used where ever
needed.
Big question: How can I use this function in a SELECT-Statement
for my report? I guess it must be something like
SELECT * FROM -table or view- WHERE deptno = -schema.function-
Right? Does the function have to be part of a package?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Yours

the table or view is WWSEC_person this is where the users are..

Hyperlink format changed for all not only new links on page

Hi,
The button "Use for new links on page" (in German "Für neue Links auf Seite verwenden") on the inspector dialog (hyperlink -> Format) doesn't work. It changes the format of all existing links on the page! Can this be fixed please!
Thank you
Thomas

That seems to be the way that button works, right or wrong. However, send a bug report to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

i dont want to change in modelling side.. because.. this required format is needed only for some querys ...
so, can any one suggest me is there any chance to get the date format in the reporting side like this..(27-JAN-2007) ..
helpful answers will be appriciated..
Thanks

Hi Babu,
If the format is required in the Bex analyser then its system dependent setting .
Control panel - > Regional & language options -> Regional options -> Customize -> Date -> Short Date format -> DD-MMM-YYYY(Change) .
Do not forget to log off and re-login into bex,execute queries and see the output.
Hope that helps.

double post

Try putting
SRW.DO_SQL('alter session set NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS='', ''');
in the Before Report Trigger.
The setting might be reused for the next report if Reports is set to reuse the database connection.
To avoid this, I guess you change it back to default in the After Report Trigger.
Hope this helps!

Customizing ActiveX Viewer for Crystal Reports 2008

Here's the scenario.
We have reports designed in Crystal Reports 2008, that are deployed on Business Objects 3.1 Infoview. All reports have Parameters for users to choose. All reports are expected to refresh on open.Some are dynamic some are standard static ones. There is an application developed in JAVA that is rendering these reports using the ActiveX viewer.
The users are not comfortable with the way reports look in JAVA viewer. Hence the choices are either HTML viewer or ActiveX viewer.
The application achieves this by making OpenDoc call to the report and using
sViewer=actx
as one of the parameters. Here's the issue that we run into. When users land on the parameter screen, the parameter screen alone Pops Up in a new window. Once all the parameter values are entered and the users clicks OK, the window vanishes and actual report is rendered in the original window.
If we use HTML viewer by setting
sViewer=html
The report Parameter screen is rendered in the main window without popping up. However we do not wish to use HTML viewer because, some of the reports are linked to other reports with OpenDoc calls. i. e. Parent report calls child report with a OpenDoc call. In the HTML viewer, when you click on the link to child report, it opens in same window despite setting
sWindow=new
in that opendoc call. Thereby losing parent report and no way to navigate back to it. This problem does not happen in ActivX viewer.There it seems to obey the command to open in new window.
Lastly you can recreate all this behavior by setting your viewer preferences in Info View settings.
So, here's my questions.
1. Should I use the .Net viewer instead of ActiveX Viewer ? If so, where can I find Syntax for the same ?
2. Can someone point me to documentation on the ActiveX Viewer ? Specifically making it not to Pop Up the Parameter Screen ?
3. Should the Java application use a different method other than Open Doc to cal the reports ? If so where can I get the details ?
Apologies for the long post. I tried to anticipate most of the questions that may arise in your mind. Thanks in advance for the time invested.

Thank you Adam for the help.
I already have the Open Document document you mentioned. Can't seem to search for the KB article in Marketplace. No results found.
Just to clarify, I do not want to avoid the Parameter screen. Its the fact that it Pops Up in ActiveX viewer is the issue. The only thing I want in ActiveX viewer is to make that screen appear in main window just like HTML viewer.
I understand that there is no difference as far as opendoc is concerned between .Net or JAVA. I am looking for the SDK behind the viewers themselves.
To my third question, your answer is what I was looking for. But need a bit clarification.

> If you do not like the functionality that OpenDocument provides, you could use the SDK to view the reports, but you will likely run into the same issue as you are running into when using the html viewer. The only workaround for that is to set a property on the viewer object in the SDK but it will affect all hyperlinks in the report not just a single one.
By setting Property in SDK for the viewer Object, are you referring to Meta Tag encapsulation such as
<a href= http://infoview.server.com/Infoview/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=ABZR3Z&sIDType=CUID&&sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&sWindow=new>Report Title</a>
May be I didn't get your point with setting property. I know there is documentation on Viewer SDK. I just can't seem to find it. I hope it would answer the questions.

Persistent prompt date format changes when reopening report in Webi

Hi all
I have a PERISTENT prompt that asks for a date when you run the report. The format is "MM/dd/yyyy". I also have a variable that displays this value in the form:
=ToDate(UserResponse([Query 1];"Please enter date:");"MM/dd/yyyy")
When the report is run the prompt works and you select the date from the calendar and all works fine. You can refresh the report and keep the persistent date prompt value if you like. Great.
The problem comes when the report is saved and then reopened for modifying.
On my report I get #ERROR associated with the above variable. This is because the peristent value in the prompt has been "re-loaded" in the format "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a".
The only way I have found to resolve this is to refresh the report and reselect a date which makes the persistent prompt kind of useless if you close the report.
Any suggestions on solving this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sharon

Sharon,
The problem comes when the report is saved and then reopened for modifying.
When opening the report in something other than modify, does the problem also occur? I too have noticed different behavior with persistent date prompts and whether running in modify or Infoview modes. Most deployments do not give their users the ability to run a public report in modify mode (though, possibly they could copy it to their own Favorites and run it in modify mode there). So perhaps this "problem" is by design and is resolved by running the report in the more common Infoview mode?
Thanks,
John

Background changes for every button?

Hello, I am using encore 5.1 and I was wondering if it's possible to have the background change every time I go from one button to the next withtout actually changing menus?
I would like to do something like in the video I'm linking (watch only the first 10 seconds to get an idea of what I'm talking about). Granted, in the video, what's running is a program and not a dvd menu, but is something similar possible in encore?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKMu-bybpI0
I know I can make it so I go on a button, click enter, this brings me to a new menu with a new background, but I want to cut on the amount of menus. I like the idea of the background changing automatically without having to go to a new menu.
Thanks for your time and help!

When using dupe Menus and Auto Activate, I strongly recommend that one sketch out the flowchart first, and also think about using Button and Menu names, that relate directly to where they need to Link. With a bunch of Buttons, it can get involved pretty quickly. With a bit of planning, things will be much easier. I usually will layout my flowchart in Adobe Illustrator, and use the images of my Menus, in that image. It really helps me plan things. However, using AI might be overkill for some Projects, and a pencil and paper would do the job.
Good luck, and remember, if played on a computer, the effect will not be so fluid, as the user must click on the "original" Menu to get to the "dupe" Menu with the different background - just a limitation of Auto Activate on a computer. In a DVD player, it will be pretty seamless, and can look beautiful. I use this general technique to create what appear to be Sub-picture Highlights, that are really graphics.

Is there a 2GB file size limit on saving a custom format plugin for a custom file type?

I have resolved issues on reading files > 2GB. Now when I save files >2GB, I get a popup that states there is a 2GB limit for plugins.
I an using photoshop CS6 on a MAC OSX 10.9 with 16 GB RAM.
The custom file type is what should be selected when the Save As Dialogue is visible.
I looked for a setting in the Photoshop preferences for Files & setting to PSB, but did not see one.
I tried modifying values in the PiPL for formatmaxSize and PluginMaxSize, but the only values that the code will compile in with:
32767 & 2147483647.
I saw a posting in previous years that custom plugins were limited to 2 GB.

I would like to rephrase my question, now that I have worked a little more with my code.
Is there a 2GB limit per channel and 4GB limit for total file size for a custom photoshop format plugin?
