Error in display of Turkish Characters in BEx Report

Hi Experts,
I am facing an issue while running one of reports in BEx in place of Turkish Characters i am getting #.whereas same report if run over Web is giving Turkish characters showing "I" in place of #.
Please provide any pointers on this.
Thanks
Nilesh

As mentioned above - check the OSS notes - this problem is one of the main reasons for upgrading a BEx front end to 7 or moving to the web
However there is a workaround - you can broadcast queries in xls format and email them - this gets around the problem - but no user interaction is possible and you cannot format the xls (is you wanted to format the xls you would use the precalc service but this then would turn the characters back into #)

Turkish characters in Bex reports

Hello Experts,
I have a problem viewing Turkish characters in Bex reports. In place of Turkish characters I get some invaild characters. This problem is only with Bex reporting (Via excel).
Web reporting, RSRT (Bex) everywhere it is showing properly, only in Bex (via excel) I am having this problem.
I checked for OSS too, but not much help.
Any help is appriciated.
Thanks
VJ

Hello Green,
we have solved our problem. Actually we have written to SAP and they said that currently with Bex (EXCEL only) may not support all the characters. So they asked us to 1) install SAP GUI Patch version 44 logon as english and
2) Windows -> Start -> Control Panel -> Regional and Language Settings
Select Turkish on the first Drop Down Box, on the tab Regional Options as well as on the Advanced options. Then the specified characters as well as the English characters will display properly
This worked for us....
hope this helps

Unit of the Quantity field is displaying in internal format in Bex report

Hi Experts,
I have a BEx Query, in which i have quantity keyfigure added(Examble - Sales Quantity).
When i run the report for a selection the report displayes the unit for the quantity field in internal format.
Examble - instead of showing 10 CS (case), the report is shwing in 10 CV (internal format of unit CS is CV).
Also when i check the cube content, it has the unit updated into the cube as CS for that keyfigure.
Can any one let us know, how to dispaly the report output in external format.
Regards.

Hi Gopi,
The property in question is "calculated". This is a property of a context value attribute. So select the value attribute in the context to which your field is bound and view the properties. Set "calculated=true". It will generate the accessors.
In the setter method, add the following piece of code:
public void set<your attribute name>(IPrivate<your component>View.IContextElement element, java.lang.String value)
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#.00");
value = df.format(value).toString();

Turkish characters display '#'

Hi,
I am having a problem with the BEx Analyzer tool. I want to display Turkish characters correctly when running the report but I notice there is a '#' symbol for a specific turkish character (I with a dot on the top).
It's represented correctly in SAP BW when I view the master data text values. It is even displayed correctly when I execute the report via the web interface. The only problem is the BEx Analyzer tool.
Is this a regional setting for laptops? Does Microsoft have some support for BEx so that it can display all Turkish characters correctly? Does SAP have some additional language support for BEx Analyzer?

Hi,
will be displayed for Characteristcs when there is no data...if diplay properties of characteristic are set to 'key'.
if display propety is 'Text',then 'not assigned' will be displayed instead of #.
don't want to display # ?

Problem in displaying Thai fonts after migrating from Reports 2.5 to 6i

Hi,
We have recently migrated our reports from Reports 2.5 to 6i.
When we were using Reports 2.5, we could display The Thai Fonts correctly, but after migrating to 6i, the data retrieved from database is being displayed as junk characters.
In Reports 2.5 we had set a registry variable ORA_CHARSET_CONVERSION to NO_CHARSET_CONVERSION. We were using NLS_LANG as AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8IS08859P1 in 2.5.
If we change WE8IS08859P1 to US7ASCII for Reports 6i, the data retrieved from database is being displayed correctly in Thai fonts, but the labels become junk characters.
Do we need to do any special setup in 6i?
Nigam.

Hi All,
Whilst doing the migration (and god knows how long this will take) I need to document the log file of all functions and changes made. The manual states that there is a PLG file created however, I can't seem to find it. I'm running the conversion one by one and not in batch mode. Can someone help me locating the PLG log file.
Thanks

BW reports (BEx Reports) in Sneak preview ABAP version

Hi All,
Is it possible to display the BW data in BEx reports with help of Tr code RRMX in Sneak preview ABAP trail version.
When i try to run Trcode RRMX system says <b>Please install Excel as viewer.</b>.
Please let me know , how we can display data.
Regards.
Hari

Hi,
May be your SAP GUI, BW components are not installed. Reinstall SAP GUI and select BW checkbox during installation. Also you need to have ur excel macro setting (tools->macro->security) as either low or medium.
check this note: 160995-BEx Analyzer: Excel Add-ins interfere at the start.
If you are in 7.0, you need to unstall your front end and reinstall the 7.0 front end.
You may troubleshoot using below link

Hope it helps.

Reg: Turkish characters issue on BW 3.10 Bex level and RSRT

Hi,
We are facing the same problem with the turkish characters, Our system is BW 3.10 (3.30 Cont) and ECC 6.0. The turkish characters are displaying correctly at the table level, but not at the RSRT or the Bex level.
The turkish characters are displaying correctly at the table, RSRT and Bex level if we load the same record from the Non-unicode Prod system to the Non-unicode BW Dev system, but if we load from the unicode QA system the same record is not displaying correctly.
Has anybody got a solution for this issue
thanks
Kalyan

Hi,
Yes, we installed transport request, which came with Integration Kit in our BW System.
We are also facing another issue,
ISSUE 2:
We have another publication with oracle DataSource , where we need to publish report(personalized) for 200 users.
Even we configured dedicated processing server for that publication and setting maximum no of connection to 250, it is throwing error like maximum no of concurrent connection reached.
Previously it was working with just 50 connections.
Now we are running this report by setting max no of connection to 500, and doing service restart after each publication.
Otherwise next publication will throw same error again.
Guide me on this also.

Problems with Turkish characters not displaying correctly

A user is having problems with certain Turkish characters in particular fonts not displaying correctly (as shown below).
The two fonts (Gill Sans and Helvetica LT CondensedLight) are used for English language marketing material. Ideally, for continuity, the same font would be preferred for our Turkish language marketing material rather than changing it to a similar font.
Helvetica LT CondensedLight
Turkish character “ İ ” does not display correctly in either Word or InDesign.
Gill Sans
Turkish characters “ ş ” and “ ğ ” display correctly in Word but not InDesign.
My questions are:
1. For Gill Sans, why are the characters not displaying in InDesign but are in Word?
2. I've noticed here: http://www.webtype.com/font/gill-sans-family/#glyphs-tab that the required characters are available within the Gill Sans font. Is this because the font is newer and includes the additional characters? Would this work in InDesign?

One of the big differences between InDesign and Word is that Word will happily substitute glyphs without telling you. So, unless your installs of Word and of InDesign are using different versions of Gill Sans (which is possible, BTW) then your s-with-cedilla and your g-with-macron are actually not in Gill Sans but in some other font. I'm guessing Arial.
It's possible that you have more than one Gill Sans installed (e.g. one in your Document Fonts folder and another in your system fonts folder) that have different glyph complements. Gill Sans has been around a long time, and the version I have from the 90s has no Turkish support whatsoever.
As far as the capital-I-with-dot, you can check your glyph coverage in a variety of ways. In both InDesign and Word, you can open up a window that shows you all of the glyphs in a font. In InDesign, find it in Type -> Glyphs. In Word, it's called "Insert Symbol" and you can find it in Word 2010 by going to Insert -> Symbol -> More Symbols. I am guessing that the answer to this question is simply that your cut of Helvetica LT has no cap-I-with-dot. You'd need to pick a font that actually has support for Turkish. On WIndows, I use a very full-featured freebie called BabelMap to check font coverage. They have a Web version here:
http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/babelmap.html
but I personally prefer the downloadable .exe file.

PDF Output Not Displaying Turkish Characters

Hi,
We've configured BI 7.0 System with an Standalone Portal+BI Java System running both on SP11 Stack without problem.
For BI Web Reports, we're taking PDF Outputs and getting Turkish Character Problems. On the screen we can see everything correct, even Excel Export displays Turkish Characters without problem but PDF Export is wrong. I've checked the "<b>Note 1007116 - Form output in incorrect language</b>" but not sure whcih form to check? And also if this is the problem?
If anyone can help us, it'll be great

Hi Ade,
I tried all possible combinations of fetching the data. Writing a PL/SQL function and assigning the data to placeholder in before report trigger. Also, tried to use a query and then assign the data to placeholder through formula column. Directly assigining the database column on field without using placeholder.
While trying all the above options, I ensured that width is set to 4000 characters.
But all in vain. It works fine for 2000 characters but not able to print 4000 characters.

Bex report displays text Error in the result

Hello,
In my bex query result the text ERROR is displayed beside the value of a keyfigure.
I'm not able to figure why this appears and how to find the error.
Thanks.

This is due to the absense of unit/currency against the key figure in the info provider.
Maitain the currency/unit and then run the report. This should rectify the report error.

CR4Ev2 problem exporting to PDF containing Turkish characters

I know there are other threads with similar topics but I also know some people get irritated when people jump onto their threads with their own problems.
I am using CR4Ev2 and on my machine which I have installed Eclipse on I have no problems
exporting my reports to PDF, I have Turkish characters which display perfectly (they did not with
CR4Ev1 so thanks so much for that)
I have now exported my project as a WAR file and am trying to run it on another machine with the same
Tomcat and Java versions.
If I view the report via the CrystalReport Viewer the Turkish characters display with no hassel.
But if I try export the report to PDF all the Turksh characters now display as ?, (as they did in CR4Ev1)
Am I missing something, is there something that I am not including in my project that I need
when exporting the PDF.
I have installed Adobe Reader 9 on this new machine incase the Turkish langauge fonts were not in
my version 8, but still get funny ? characters, I even installed the Turksih version of Adobe 9 and still nothing. Is there some other files that I could have installed on my Eclipse machine that I have not installed
on the second machine.
I have tried both the following commands to export to PDF
CRJavaHelper.exportPDF(clientDoc, response, true);
and
CRJavaHelper.exportPDF(clientDoc, response, false);
both dont work.
I have also tried the following (which I used before with CR4Ev1)
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)clientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
writeToFileSystem(byteArrayInputStream, EXPORT_OUTPUT); // EXPORT_OUTPUT = "c:\test.pdf"
private void writeToFileSystem(ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream, String exportFile) throws Exception {
          //Use the Java I/O libraries to write the exported content to the file system.
          byte byteArray[] = new byte[byteArrayInputStream.available()];
          //Create a new file that will contain the exported result.
          File file = new File(exportFile);
          FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
          ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream(byteArrayInputStream.available());
          int x = byteArrayInputStream.read(byteArray, 0, byteArrayInputStream.available());
          byteArrayOutputStream.write(byteArray, 0, x);
          byteArrayOutputStream.writeTo(fileOutputStream);
          //Close streams.
          byteArrayInputStream.close();
          byteArrayOutputStream.close();
          fileOutputStream.close();
But that also does not work.
Please can someone tell me what they think I am missing.
Oh, another note with the CRJavaHelper.exportPDF(clientDoc, response, false); command
It does work but I do get the following error in my console (both the Eclipse machine and the new one).

Is this part of the problem or a seperate issue??
Thanks all for looking at this.
Darren

Ted,
I have double checked the Java version and infact reinstalled jdk6u7 (multilanguage version) just to be
100% sure, but that did not help.
ON my Eclipse machine the Fonts are as follows
Verdana(Embedded Subset)
     Type: TrueType
     Encoding: Built-In
but on the other machine it is different
Verdana
    Type: TrueType
    Encoding: Ansi
    Actual Font: Verdana
    Actual Font Type: TrueType
So that does appear to be the problem, but the question is what controls this?
As I said the project is exactly the same (same WAR file) so what I have done differently or what am I
missing in the new enviroment.
I set the "Text file encoding" for the whole project to UTF-8 before I exported the project (in Eclipse)
but that didnt help. I even set the properties of each report to UTF-8.
I am sure I am missing something simple.
The only other difference is Im running XP Pro on Eclipse machine but W2KSP4 on the other, but
surely that is not the issue.
Cheers
Darren

Error while opening BEx reports

Hello Gurus,
I got a problem with BEx reports. When I tried to open the BI reports in BEx Analyzer, its giving the following error.
"Characteristic 0TCKAKYFNM does not exist. Check authorizations"
I got this problem only with the Production server. All the rpeorts worked fine in DEV and QA servers.
When checked, there is no infoobject named "0TCKAKYFNM" exists in the system.
Also we have checked with Basis people for any authorization object with the name 0TCKAKYFNM but of no use.
We are using BI7.0
Any suggestions will be of great use.
Rgds
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
Check the 0TCAKYFNM objcet properties - i.e Display the Char and goto Tab - Business Explorer.
If the Authorization relevant filed is checked then by default your object can be used to provide data level authorizations.
If this object is included in your infoprovider then you need to provide the values or '*' in the analysis authorization object.
If you r not using any authhorizations, then plz uncheck the 'authorization relevant' checkbox in the object properties.
Regards,
Geeta
