Download Scheduler Reports

Hello Experts,
I have been executing queries in background (Pre-calculated web templates - Reporting Agent) for the users for several months, and downloading them to the PC using Download Scheduler application. For some testing purpose, I executed one of the queries in foreground (Ad-hoc) using BEx Analyzer to reconcile the Adhoc report with the downloaded report. I noticed that the size of the downloaded report was drastically huge compared to the Adhoc report. Can someone tell me what the issue is and how to minimize the size of the downloaded report?

Hi Tobias,
Thanks for your response.pls correct me if any thing wrong in my understanding.I feel that initiation will be taken by Reporting agent to generate appropriate web report with the help of control query and main query. Then resultant URL will be sent back to RA, where it is adding 001 to the "dataprovider name" and will push this files with 001 when the end user downloads.
Is it possible to add result of the control query to the dataprovider name at web template level dynamically. so that RA will generate final file as "dataprovidername_uk_001". So that user can easily identify which report belongs to which company.
If you have any specimen batch file. Can u plz send it to me.
Regards,
Ramesh

Now it´s working but the user still have some open points:
1 - The files are always overwriiten - it means that the data from the weeken can not be seen. There´s any parameter that can be setted that allow it to create different files each runtime?
2 - Is it need that the computer must alway be turn it on? If the file is saved on a shared file can be this problem avoided?

Reporting Agent and Download Scheduler

Hello All,
    I have an issue with the Reporting Agent and Download scheduler. I am on BW 3.5. I am not familiar with the setup myself (I inherited it), and I would like some basic information.
   Essentially it was working fine until we added some new settings. Now, the Download Scheduler freezes mid-run - just stops - and I am guessing this has to do with the new settings that were created (not by me - again, I just inherited all this).
   Any help, suggestions, links to white papers (Google was NOT helpful) anything at all on this ancient technology would be appreciated.
   Thanks.
Dave

Dynamic Variant in Download Scheduler

Dear All,
I am using BEx download Scheduler and reporting agent to schedule a report. The report asks for 2 input Values 0netduedate and 0calmonth. I give these 2 inputs in a variant and schedule the report.The Report gets run at the scheduled time everyday but it uses the same variant. I want the 0netduedate to reflect the current date. Currently although I use 0P_KEYDT (keyduedate) as variable for 0netduedate which is sy-datum , the report gets scheduled for the date I scheduled it on even the next day. The date doesn't change to the present date.Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem? Is it possible to make a variant with dynamic date input?
Regards,
Ratish

it's buried in there
this thread may help if you need to define custom variables
Re: CASH SALES
you'll see it under the variant attributes screen. i know people get reluctant to choose something from a grayed out field but you will be able to choose a selection variable and then the name of the variable
so for a date field you could choose say D and Previous Month

Download scheduler

Hello experts,
1. I created a web template
2. In report agent -I did a setting for the web template
3. I scheduled the setting in the package.

          data calculation
          Excel sheets
          HTML pages
Then I checked the preview, I got data in it.
5. I ran the package
6. i used download scheduler to create HTML pages and Excel workbooks

   I dont see any data in HTML pages as well Excel workbooks. BUt lot of them got created.
Please help me how to pre-calculate and created workbooks and html Pages.

meps

Hi!
check this note 510931
here is excerpt from this note.
"Files are displayed and downloaded, but the total file size is 0 KB (empty). This may be for various reasons.
One reason may be that no SAP Web Application Server has been configured or activated. Using note 543817, you can create a trace that contains the URLs that were called. Try to open these URLs manually in the Web Browser. If this does not work, this implies that there is a general configuration problem. The required settings for BW 3.0B or higher are contained in the implementation guide (transaction SPRO) under "SAP Reference IMG/BW Customizing Implementation Guide/Business Information Warehouse/Reporting-Relevant Settings /Web-Based Settings".
Another reason may be the missing configuration for document storage. For more information, see note 499480. After you apply this note, you must pre-calculate the HTML pages again. Note also the following point."
Hope it helps(.... please award points if it helps)

Download Scheduler authorization

Dear All,
Can anybody pls help me in this issue about download scheduler.
I have made a WAD report and I have attached a role to the package created.
When the person from that role tries to download it query fetches errror.
By my master id I can download it properly.
Is there any authorization issue, if yes what type of authorization should I provide to the id?

Hi:
I wouldn't work with that technology, it's kind of a "dead end", not further developed. I would use Information Broadcasting instead.

Download Scheduler in 3.5

Hello,
I'm wondering if there is a way to know when a scheduling package has been downloaded for the last time by means of Download Scheduler ?
And if it is possible to know how many times it has been downloaded ?
This question because I would like to know if Scheduling packages with Web templates are really used by users...
Thanks for any replies
AJ

Pankaj,
Even in 3.5 you still need to use precalculation server to download the report to your desktop, I don't think you can use broadcaster to download a report to desktop. Precalcuation server can still be used in 7.0 as well.
thanks.

URL accessed by the Download Scheduler

Hi all,
When i run the BEx Download scheduler for a package, a certain URL is accessed where the Web Templates are Stored. This is downloaded onto the PC.
The Problem here is the default URL string that is accessed by the Download scheduler is failing. Is there any solution such that we can get the Download scheduler to access the Web template through the IP address of that server. Kindly let know if there are any such settings or any other way to acheive it
Thanks in advance

Deepu,
The reporting agent template consistency check is successful with consistent results. And, I corrected the errors in the documents in RSRV. The files are downloading in to my desktop, but when i try to download them to the windows server i get the 1 KB files. When i open them this is what shows up....
<b>Forbidden
Access is denied because:
Access denied by the access control list.</b>
Does the server need to have the FTP and IIS installed in it to download? Because when i tried to download the same into my desktop and another PC over the LAN(both has FTP & IIS installed), its working fine.
I presume that this is more of a security issue outside SAP than an internal one.
Thanks for the quick replies, really apprecite it.

Scheduling Reports from Oracle package

Is it possible to schedule a report from withing a oracle package. I am using 10G
and need to schedule reports to be sent as email based on certain conditions.
thanks

Hello,
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_17/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_evnt.htm
Oracle® Application Server Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web
10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
B14048-02
17 Using Event-Driven Publishing
To address the requirement of automatic output, OracleAS Reports Services includes a scheduling mechanism that enables the invocation of reports on a scheduled basis without requiring additional user interaction. But this leaves one requirement unresolved: the ability to automatically run a report in response to an event in the database, such as the insertion of a record or the change of a value.
