Dynamic Template queries

Hi,
i have created a user defined dimension called "items", but somehow this dimension didn't automatically appear in my "freeze dimension setting" in the dynamic templates. and when i tried to manually input "items" at the next available row in "freeze dimension setting", the override effect doesn't seem to work.
any input on this?
cheers

I tested the template number 13, or the nested row expansion template in ApShell. I added a dimension called Items, and added 11 members. When I opened the template and went to the control panel the dimension is not in the list, so I added the dimension name and then entered my override value memebr of "Item1". The expansion had the correct data and worked.
What did not happen, wa sthat the current view bar did not change, it still shows "All_Items" as its member. This is correct, since the template does not control the current view bar. If I change the current view to "ITEM2", I still only have values related to "ITEM1" in the expansion. So, I am guessing that you expected the current view to change? Which it will not.
Just as a note for all who are interested, you may need to edit and add these dimensions in each wizard for each application and store them back to the repository for a complete wizard view. In version 7, we expect to release EVDRE wizards. The NetWeaver version has them as part of its ApShell and they are transferable to the Microsoft version.
Hope this helps.

Erratic Report Region Behavior with Dynamic SQL Queries

I'm running HTMLDB v 1.5.1.00.12 and I've noticed some odd behavior with report regions using dynamic SQL queries. Every so often, our testers will run a page containing a dynamic sql report region and get the following error, (despite the fact the query was working only moments ago and no other developer has touched it):
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
or sometimes
failed to parse SQL query:ORA-01403: no data found
The only solution I've found so far is to:
1) Make a copy of the failed report region.
2) Disable or delete the original failed report region.
The new copy of the report region runs without issue.
My search of the forums turned up the following two threads, but neither provided me with a clear explanation of the cause, and how to avoid it:
ORA-06502:PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Re: Import Export Error (ORA-06502)
The columns being returned are below the 4000 character limit, and the rows being returned are far less than 32k in size.
Could this have anything to do with the way HTMLDB is internally storing the PL/SQL used to generate the dynamic SQL Query? Is there any known issue related to this with that version of HTMLDB?
This problem occurs without any discernable pattern or consistency, making it hard to determine where I should focus my efforts in tracking down the cause.

Hi all,
My report seems to be behaving correctly once i set it to "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" :)
Cheers,
Joel

Error while opening the dynamic Template

Hi Experts,
While opening the Dynamic Templates in application in Sap Bpc it will give me an error: Description information is missing: contact your administrator. Please help me in this.

Hello,
Please try the following:
Clear the client cache if the problem is with a single client:
In BPC for Excel, click the eTools menu and select u2018Client Optionsu2019.
Click u2018Clear local application informationu2019.
Click u2018Refresh Dynamic Temnplatesu2019.
This will force the client machine to download the templates again.
Change the template version for the Application Set (AppSet) if the problem is with multiple clients:
Launch the BPC u2018Interface for the Webu2019.
Select u2018Administrationu2019.
Select u2018AppSet Parametersu2019.
Find the TEMPLATEVERSION parameter.
Increment the value by one. For example, if the value is .103, change the value to .104 and click the Update button.
This will force all of the client machines to download the templates again.
Manually download the files:
These files can be found in two locations.
Check the local machine for the files:
Check the local paths on the client machine to see if the needed files are there. The local paths for these files are:
My Documents\PC_NW\<domain>\<user>\AppInfo\<applicationset>\<Application>\eExcel\Reports\Wizard.
My Documents\PC_NW\<domain>\<user>\AppInfo\<applicationset>\<Application>\eExcel\Input Schedules\Wizard.
The files should be:
DESCRIPTION.TXT
IMAGE#.BMP
TEMPLATE#.XLT (where # is the specific number of the file).
If these files do not exist, they can be copied over from a working system. If all systems are giving this error, the files can be retrieved from NetWeaver.
To find the files in NetWeaver:
Run transaction UJFS.
Expand u2018webfoldersu2019.
Expand the Application Set (AppSet).
Expand the Application.
Expand u2018eexcelu2019.
Expand u2018reportsu2019.
Expand u2019wizardu2019.
The files located in this directory should also be located in My Documents\PC_NW\<domain>\<user>\AppInfo\<applicationset>\<Application>\eExcel\Reports\Wizard.
To download all of these files, right click the u2018wizardu2019 folder and select u2018Download All Documentsu2019.
Once the files are downloaded, unzip them into the local directory.
go back to u2018eexcelu2019 from Step 5.
Expand u2018input schedulesu2019.
Expand u2019wizardu2019.
The files located in this directory should also be located in My Documents\PC_NW\<domain>\<user>\AppInfo\<applicationset>\<Application>\eExcel\Input Schedules\Wizard.
Follow Steps 9-10.
If these files do not exist in NetWeaver, they may not have been transported properly. If this is the case, go to the source system and download the files and then right click the folder in NetWeaver and select u2018Upload Document from PCu2019 on the destination system.

Cannot copy a section in new "Pages 5." Miss "dynamic templates."

I loved being able to create a document with tables, graphics and other detailed material on a page that was its own "section." Then when I wanted to re-use it IN THAT SAME DOCUMENT, like an order form for example, I could copy it as many times as I liked in the same docuemnt, delete whatever parts were not needed in the copy and use it as a kind of "dynamic template."
How do you copy a whole page all at once with complex content in the New pages?

You can't really, other than to manually select all the content starting at the top of the page and paste elsewhere.
Working with pages as pages has been abandoned in Pages.
I'm sorry.

Cannot open a report I just saved via Save a Dynamic Template

Hi All,
I am on BPC 5.1 SP9, working in Office 2007.
The problem is happen sporadically, where I save a report using Save a Dynamic Template. Then try to open up the report I just saved, and the report does not open. Sometimes if I resave the report via Save Dynamic Templates, I can reopen up the report. If that does not work, I go back into Save Dynamic Template, and save it to a new name, and see if I can get the report to open.
The strange thing is I can save the report to my desktop, then go into BPC. Every time I open the report from my desktop it always runs.
Not sure if anyone has seen this before?

Does your template have an Excel 2007 4 digit extension?
There is a known issue with BPC 5.1 sp7 or higher service pack and Excel 2007 format extensions (SAP Note 1347243)
Files with Excel 2007 Extension such as XLSX and XLTX, (saved and opened repeatedly via eTool -> Save / Open Dynamic Templates menu) may have issues where the template will not open.
The problem does not exist with BPC 70M sp3 or higher.
The note also has a possible workaround; suggesting renaming the template on the File Share Server and then opening the re-named template via Open Dynamic Templates menu.
Hope this helps.

Dynamic template in EPM 10.0 version

Hi,
I am creating a dynamic template where the Employees and Cost centers are two dimensions. Under employee dimension, cost centers have been added as properties as shown below:
ID                                           Costcenter
ALLEMP
EMP001                                   2358
EMP002                                   2358
EMP003                                   2358
EMP004                                   2358
EMP005                                   2354
EMP006                                   2354
EMP007                                   2354
EMP008                                   2354
EMP009                                   2358
EMP010                                   2354
i have designed the Employees dimension members in row n time in column. While creating the template i can see the only 2354 employees. My requirement is if i change the context member from 2354 to 2358 then only those employees must appear which are shown under their respective properties. i have already checked filter because of which i can see only 2354 members but i want it to be dynamic and also that if i select 2354 then only 2354 members must appear and vice versa. It should not be static.
Please guide.
Thank you.
Rgds,
Poonam

There are two new functions in BPC 10 that will help:
EPMAxisOverride and EPMContextMember
Assuming you are using the first report on the sheet (default report), use the following:
Build the report, then on the same sheet as the report, enter the following formula (in any cell outside of the report):
=EPMAxisOverride("000",FALSE,"EMPLOYEE","CC='"&EPMContextMember("COSTCENTER")&"'")
Assuming your dimensions are named "EMPLOYEE" and "COSTCENTER". Also, assumes the cost center property on EMPLOYEE is named "CC".
Let me know if you have any trouble.

Dynamic template report zero suppression

Hi
I have a report which was developed using dynamic template and it works fine. When I configure the zero suppression for row ( yes in control ) yes, it suppress the rows with zero in first column. So it suppress the row which has some values in second column but zero in first row. It does not suppress the rows if the first column has values but second column has zero.What I want ? to suppress zero only when all the columns ( 2 in my case ) has zero values. I donu2019t see any other configuration option in control. Can some one guide me how to suppress zero only when all the columns in any row is zero.
Thanks in advance
SN

Hi SN,
If both columns are part of the EVDRE (included in the column range and pulled from the server) then this is not the correct behavior. What version of BPC are you on (7.0/7.5, and support pack)?
If the second column is not populated with data from the server, then this could happen, depending on how you have built your EVDRE.
Can you provide more detail about how the columns are populated?

To disable Dynamic templates in OTL

Hi,
There are 3 dynamic templates available in OTL viz. Project Assignments, Work Schedule & Last Period Timecard.
How can we disable these templates? I just need to use the Last Period Timecard, I want to disable the rest of the templates from the user.
I am unable to deactivate these timecards from the lookup HXC_DYNAMIC_TEMPLATES as the fields are protected against update.
Is there any other way? Please advise.
Thanks

I can suggest a number of options. But I have not tried this, so it may be that none of them give you what you want!
You could make the 'last timecard' the default template by using the preference Self Service Default Template Assigned by Sys Admin. You could combine this with removing the tempate functionality (i.e. having the choice displayed to the user) byusing the preference I previously mentioned. This combination might give you the desired effect.
Or, you could try setting the enabled flag to 'not enabled' on the lookup HXC DYNAMIC TEMPLATES. Although this is a 'system' lookup, you can update the flag from the 'back end'. I wouldn't recommend this as it wouldn't be supported, but it might be worth a try.
Or, you could look into the ViewObject which controls the way the list of values for templates is displayed in the LDT file for the timecard. You m,ay be able to control which values are displayed by amending this VO.
Let me know if any of these options work!
Regards
Tim

Dynamic templates

I would like to use Visio to create graphics templates - save as PDFs and use them in Illustrator for art assembly.
Example; say a template for a #10 envelope - This template would be dynamic inthat it would be
scalable to other envelope sizes like a #9, 6 3/4 and/or monarch simply by selecting either a row in Excel
that is named as that envelope style or another method you may know of. This I call a dynamic graphics template.
Rather that having a vast number of templates of varying configurations, window sizes and locations, flap sizes and styles
and so on I would have one dtnamic template that would be the master and has new requests come along for newer styles
I could simply ad this perameters to the spreadsheet and update it in Visio thus adding that new style to the master
Vision Dynamic working template. I look forward to your reply

Hi,
According to your description, I suppose that you want to list template sizes in Excel, when clicking different sizes, Visio can create dynamic templates automatically. If so, it is not accessible to achieve this goal.
It is alternative to create different sizes of templates and create hyperlinks in Excel. When clicking a row, it will skip to a Visio template.
Could you share more information about it? Or you can post a screenshot and upload it to OneDrive.

Dynamic templates for iWeb??

Is there somewhere I can go to get (buy, have designed) a 'dynamic' template designed for iWeb, that allows me to create as many pages as I want ... and THEN functions so that when I change something, a bit of text, in the original template ... ALL the pages built from that template change automatically all at once?
I do this all the time in Dreamweaver, and would like to be able to do the same in iWeb ... which I'm finding very attractive as a designer app.
Ben

Ben,
I know what you are asking for and I don't think it is available. The best person I can get you in contact with is Suzanne Boben over at 11 Mystics...

She's one of the early pioneers in customizing iWeb templates and she might be able to offer more insight into your situation. Good luck!
