Export/Import to Excel in HFM (11.1.2.2.3)

Hi guys,
My client asked me if he could export a data grid, modify it and the import it to HFM again... I believe that could be done with previous releases, but not quite sure with versión 11.1.2.2.
Could you please confirm?
Thanks!
Jay

With 11.1.2.2 you can open a grid directly in SmartView and submit data if the security is set up to allow such. I believe a lot of the export items are no longer applicable as forms and grids can be opened directly.

MS Office Export/Import to Excel

Do we have standard API to implement export/import functionality for MS Excel 2007. I am not sure if JXL/HSSF or any other APIs have come up for this new version of excel.
Any thoughts?

Export/Import to Excel (including formulas)

Hi All,
I appreciate you looking into this post. I have a requirement to export to excel from a grid. I am able to export with no problem. the only issue I have is, is there a way that anyone has been able to import formulas to excel along with the data that is being imported.
Also, has anyone been able to import from Excel. I am not having any luck looking thru the SAPUI5 controls to accomplish this task. Any direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sergio

i think this is part of the answer.. this is to import csv -

Has any one came across this issue that I am facing now?
I have a form in HFM and I exported the form to Excel and the export works fine. but when I import the excel template into form, it was not successful. I have 250 rows in the template. I deleted 50 rows and tried to import and it worked fine . Is there any row limit on this?
Below here is the error message that I am getting

Make sure you honor the file extension requirements for 2007 docs and import the same as they are exported.

Workflow for exporting xml from Excel and importing into table in InDesign

Hello,
I have worked out how to get data from a .xlsx into a table in InDesign. However, the workflow is still a little clunky and I am looking for way to automate the process further. My current workflow is as follows (files can be download here: http://visual360.co.uk/xml.zip)
xml is exported from .xlsx by mapping the schema (see what_I_get.xml)
assign tags to table and individual cells in InDesign
This is the clunky bit: edit the what_I_get.xml to:
remove the indentation (this seems necessary as otherwise when I get to stage 4, all the imported text is also indented)
add tag for table in InDesign (p10_table)
add tags for individual cells (p10_c11 etc.)
import the produced what_I_want.xml in the structure panel of InDesign.
Can anyone point me in the direction of how to automate step 3 above?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Hi Mike,
Thanks very much for the reply. I am not at all familiar with XSL/XSLT. I have given it a quick google and it seems like it could be quite a steep learning curve to master. Maybe if I explain the whole context here, it may allow you to point me in the direction of a tutorial that provides a step by step approach to achieve my final goal. Alternatively, you may be able to suggest a whole new workflow.
I am in the process of updating this document: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/students/insessional/assets/documents/IS_Brochure_2014-15.pdf
The tables on pages 10-21 contain lots and lots of repeated information. We want the layout to in this format so that each group of students has all the information relevant to them on a single double spread. However, the challenge of using this approach is that it is very high maintenance to ensure the duplicated information is kept in sync - even using a copy / paste approach.
I was hoping to overcome this by using a single source of data (eg. a spreadsheet) which would then feed into the InDesign. This workflow seems to be overcomplicated by the apparent need to use xml as the "middle-man".
Ideally, I would like to press the export button in Excel and get this information into the the correct cells in the tables on pages 10-21 without a significant amount of manual labour - after all, my reasons for investigating an automated approach in the first place was to avoid the manual entering of data ie. the scope for error...
An alternative approach maybe to skip Excel altogether and just use .xml. However, I am not sure that this is possible as Indesign only seems to allow you to import each element once. Maybe you could correct me here...
I am happy to invest a certain amount of time in developing this approach as once it is in place, it will save a huge of proof-reading time year after year, especially as inconsistencies still persist despite our best efforts to weed them out.
If you could let me know your thoughts on this and maybe identify a tutorial that would help me, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks again!
Nick

Error message using SQL import and Export Wizard with Excel spread sheet

I am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet using the Import export wizard that is provided with SQL 2014.
Everything seems to set up OK but then when I go to do the transfer "error message" comes up saying:
External Table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft Jet Database Engine).
This is a spreadsheet and there is no database, that is why I want to import it into a database!! So the reference to JET is a tad disappointing.
So why the error and how do I fix the problem?
As there are over 100 variables in the spread sheet rows, it would be great to have this automatically create the database and populate the fields.
I am using SQL 2014 Express and Office Excel 2013.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this, and hopefully sheading some light on the issue.

Hi AWlcurrent,
When import a .xlsx file to SQL Server using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, you see a “External Table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft Jet Database Engine).” error message. This error message seems that the Microsoft JET Database Engine is
unable to handle something that is contained in the file.
So please make sure there is no unsupported content in the Excel file. Alternatively, we can use ‘Microsoft Excel’ as the Data Source, then Select ‘Microsoft Excel 2007’ as the Excel version to import the excel file.
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

How do I keep formatting while importing/exporting from/to excel using Numbers for Ipad

I have an excel file that I export to Numbers on my Ipad. The problem is I lose all of my formatting. I use a lot of linking cells in the excel version of the file. And even when I work on the Numbers version of the file and put in the pop up menus, I lose those when I export to excel. Is there any way to keep this formatting when exporting/importing?
Thanks for the help.

Migintosh, I hadn't thought of that, but turns out that is my problem. I seems when I place the file, indesign in automatically changing those values. Is there a way to force indesign keep those at 0 (or whatever value I want) as I place the text? Right now, what happens is I place the text and then have to select all and manually set the before and after to 0 since indesign decides to change the after spacing to 0.1389.

Web Form Import From Excel Error

Hi all,
I've an issue regarding the import from Excel function in HFM (9.3.1) web forms.
First of all I export in Excel a form, I input data in yellow cells and then I save the file (I don't change the file extencion that remains xls).
Finally I try to import the modified form by using Import from Excel function.
Once the system finish to load shows me a windows saying that "The data have been saved to the DB" (or something similar) but when I open the web form there are no data.
I've checked carefully the POV and it's the same and I'm using an administrative user.
What can I try to do to fix this issue?? Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance
Giacomo

We submitted a bug report about this in May, 2009.
Bug.7381401--- DATA'S NOT GETTING UPDATED AFTER IMPORT WDEF FROM EXCEL 2007.
After updating from 9.3.1 to 9.3.3, the issue has been resolved. I would assume the bug detail is unpublished, which is unfortunate as this info would pop up in a search of the Oracle Support KB and help out others with the same issue.

Issue while exporting report in Excel Format

Hello,
I am facing problem while exporting the report in Excel Format. After analysis, I think that it could be due to two reasons, either we are using wrong versions of Jars, or we are using wrong API. Here is the code, approaches and problems we are facing. Please help.
First approach we are using is:
// using basic API
import com.crystaldecisions.reports.sdk.ReportClientDocument;
// get client document from crystal report API and open the report by specifying the report name, with path
               ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
               reportClientDoc.open( reportPath, 0 );
               // give chance to extending classes to configure the report document by POJO or by sql parameter etc, just adding the parameters infromation using ParameterFieldController
               configureReportDocument( reportClientDoc, reportMetadata, reportData, reportContext );
               // get data source of crystal report
               Object reportSource = reportClientDoc.getReportSource();
               // export the data - we have also tried with MSExcel format
               ReportExportFormat exportFormat = ReportExportFormat.recordToMSExcel;
               LOGGER.debug( "exportFormat[" + exportFormat + "]" );
               ByteArrayInputStream byteArray = (ByteArrayInputStream) reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(
                         exportFormat );
Problem Faced: Specified Excel format is not supported.
Second Approach: We come to know that excel format is supported with new releases and with occa package.
Then we tried with import com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument; It ask to set the ReportServer. When we are trying to set the server as
               reportClientDoc.setReportAppServer(ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString);
Application is unable to find 'ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString' property. It seems like we are using some old jars. However we have downloaded the latest released jars for eclipse 2.
Please help for it. Issue is to export the report in excel format, which is currently working fine for PDF. If this problem is related to Jars, please suggest the path to download the latest jars. We also looking for the latest jars like rasapp and rascore etc. But these are not available with Crystal Report for Eclipse 2 release.
Waiting for urgent help. Thanks you..

Mohit

Problem while exporting data to Excel sheet.......

Hi
I have written the following code to export data to excel sheet...
data:
       conv_out TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_out_ce,
       content TYPE xstring.
data : itab_slsrl type table of znslsrlitm.
data: xml_out TYPE string.
Data:
Node_slsrl type ref to If_Wd_Context_Node,
Elem_slsrl type ref to If_Wd_Context_Element,
Stru_slsrl type ref to if_wd_context_element .
call transformation ('ID') source tab = itab_slsrl[] result xml xml_out.
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_IC_XML_STRING2XSTRING'
EXPORTING
INSTRING = xml_out
IMPORTING
OUTXSTRING = content.
conv_out = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create( encoding = 'UTF-8' ).
DATA: lv_filename TYPE string.
conv_out->convert( exporting data = xml_out IMPORTING buffer = content ).
cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response(
i_filename = 'Sales_order_release.xls'
i_content = content
i_mime_type = 'application/msexcel'
i_in_new_window = i_in_new_window
i_inplace = i_inplace ).
But when i am trying to export data to excel sheet i am getting
following error...
"Switch from current encode to specified encoding is not supported"
"<?xml version="1.0" encoding='utf-16"?>"
if i change encoding utf-8 to utf-16 in my code its giving dump..
"The conversion of certain code pages is not supported"
Did i miss any step...?
How to resolve this problem please help me....
Thanks & Regards
Sowmya.....

Hi Sowmya,
I do had a similar issue, but I avoided that problem temporarily by commenting the following code.
    l_conv_out = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create( encoding = 'UTF-8' ).
attach the first file
l_conv_out->convert( exporting data = l_xml_out IMPORTING buffer = l_content ).
Once this is done, you can export the data to Excel and open it and see too...But this is a temporary solution only. Implement this solution to get to understand more flaws of this.

Problems Exporting rpts to Excel!

Wannetta,
When the user filters the data and then exports it to excel; all of the original data is exported rather than the filtered data.
Can you describe the exact workflow in a bit more detail. Here is one "gotcha" to consider, which sounds suspicous to your case. If the user is using InfoView (not WebI), and he or she uses Export to Excel with CSV, then there is no consideration to what has been done in the report, the contents of what you see in the "Results Object" panel from the Edit Query view is what is sent over to the CSV file. Also, the order of the columns of data is according to what is specified in the "Results Object" panel. So, just a heads-up to consider if this is happening or not. Otherwise, please give us the workflow and the version of XI and client's versioin of Java on the workstation...
Thanks,
John

Missing data when exporting webi to excel (not 65536 limit problem)

Hi guys
I just meet a problem about webi that it will miss data when exporting webi to excel.
It's not about 65536 limitation, as my webi report do some aggregration and limitation and never beyond that limitation.
Also there are 2 tabs in my reports, if I split the 2 tabs into 2 separate reports and export them separately, then problem disappeared.
Any ideas on this?
