Exporting Report Security from Workspace

We are in the process of upgrading to 11.1.2.1 and was wondering if there was any way to export the security we have on our financial reports in Production Workspace so we can then import that into the upgraded Test system. Thanks.

Hi,
This can be done by using the Life Cycle Management. Have a read of Migrating Native Directory (Security) section in the LCM admin guide:

BIP report security from Dashboard to Publisher is not working

Hi ,
I created a BIP report(.xdo) and placed it on Dashboard as a link . As admin , I can see the report . As a user , I am able to get into publisher but not able to see the report . Iam getting the below error message .
Error : Unauthorized Access: please contact the administrator.
I suspect that security model from Dashboard through BIP is not working . I tried searching the online resources but couldnt find right help .

Export report output from WAD to Workbok

Hi Friends,
I have a very strange requirement, we have our reports on WAD, but some user community in some country they want all this Output to be exported to a work book. I know we can export to an excel sheet, but exporting to a work book im not sure, never done that before.
Can someone please tell me if you have done this before, if yes please tell me how did you do.
Also what will be the disadvantages if we take this approch.
Regards
BN

Hello,
It would be very difficult to achieve and I believe it might be even next to impossible.
I agree with your requirements. So you can have the web reports as is and keep them running.
But for the specific user community create workbooks for the needed queries and publish them in a role which is assigned to this user community.
So the users have options now, if they want to run web reports they can but then if they want to have something done in workbook they can do that by running the workbook.

Export Report Authorization

Hello Security Experts,
One of our user cannot see the Export Report (either from pull down menu or on top of the screen) in GR55 report. I tried to look up missing objects, but I failed. SU53 run did not bring up anything - said all authorizations are available! I also compared another user (a higher profile), but could not find the object. I assigned the SAP-DATA-DOWNLOAD-AUTHORITY role, but did not help. Could someone please help with the right object?
Thank you.

SU53 display result of last authorization check. This is sometimes not sufficient. Have you tried authorization trace ST01 to check all authorization checks?
Cheers

Not able to export web analysis report to excel smart view from workspace

Not able to export web analysis report to excel smart view from workspace.
Error :Web launch operation has been cancelled.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issues

I realized that I can put a block in WebI and then I can pull that in excel alongside of static header, after putting the question.
My interest to know whether it is by design in XI 3.0 or it is an issue. But by the replies it seems to me like it is by design.
@Anis: I can't go for header as part of Body. Because this report is viewed in Web by many other users. I can't have separate report for Live office, it is a restriction for me. If I use the header in body, it wont look good I guess.

It's possible to do it but it requires using a script. You can't do it by using the built-in Export Form Data command.

Few Users are unable to open reports from workspace

Hi ,
Few users are nt able to open reports from workspace. Can anyone let em know what all privalleges we need to give for the users who want to open reports.
Thanks in Advance

In general if a user can see a report and cannot open, this should be related with the application security that the reports' grid is connecting.
If opening request from users are failing with an error, please paste the error here,
Sometimes reports may be open with blank pages or no data, make sure users have necessary access to data...easy way to check this, connect to application and try to retrieve data from application, Lets say your report grid is connecting to Essbase, try if you can retrieve same grid from essbase excel add-in.
Good Luck,
Ahmet

CR2008 Not enough memory while exporting reports from Crystal Reports 2008

I have recently upgraded our Crystal Reports version from Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 to Crystal Reports 2008.

Can someone help me resolve the issue.

The .rpt file size is 14MB with the Data Save option enabled, 12MB without Data Save. Presumably the 12MB file size is because of the 24bit PNG we have as our background.
The Designer executes the report in less than a second and we can scroll through all pages and see the image fields perfectly.
When we Export to PDF, the Designer takes a long time, eventually gets to the 77%, the 7th record and returns "Export report failed" followed by "Memory full". If we export only page 1 of the 3 pages, it also returns a Memory full error. However, when the same report is run with only 1 page, that page exports to PDF but with a ridiculously large size and export time.
The machine has 2GB of physical memory with an 8GB pagefile with Windows 2003 (latest everything). The process runs up to about 1GB before reporting the memory full error.
We've also tried a variety of other suggestions posted in the other thread with no success.
We're happy to provide the RPT file to the Report Team to diagnose the problem. Ultimately, we need to be able to produce a 15 page report with approximately 45 images.
Our preferred scenario is fixing problem 2. The CR Designer seems quite capable of rendering our report and printing it to our third party PDF printer in a timely manner with small size. However, the API reports memory full.
The API resides in a dedicated reporting web service with NO other code except for loading the report, setting parameters and printing. When executing, it uses up to about 1.1GB before reporting the error.
Are there any other suggestions for fixing what we have? Are there known problems with large images in reports? Do we need to lodge a formal support request?

Problem while exporting the data from a report to an excel file.

Hi SAP guru's,
I have a problem while exporting the data from a report to an excel file.
The problem is that after exporting, the excel file seems to have some irrelevant characters....I am checking this using SOST transaction..
Required text (Russian):
Операции по счету
№ документа     Тип документа     № учетной записи     Дата документа     Валюта     Сумма, вкл. НДС     Срок оплаты     Описание документа
Current Text :
   ? 5 @ 0 F 8 8 ? > A G 5 B C
!   4 > : C       "" 8 ? 4 > : C      !   C G 5 B = > 9 7 0 ? 8 A 8        0 B 0 4 > : C         0 ; N B 0      ! C <       ! @ > : > ? ; 0 B K        ? 8 A 0 = 8 5 4 > : C
Can you help me making configuration settings if any?
Regards,
Avinash Raju

Hi Avinash
To download such characteres you need to adjust code page to be used during export. You can review SAP note 73606 to identify which code page is required for this language
Best regards

HspRuntimeException while running the report from Workspace

Hi
When a user is trying to run a report from Workspace, it prompts teh following error:
Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check Planning log for detailscom.hyperion.planning.HspRuntimeException
The report contains 2 grids, 1 pointing to an ASO application, while second pointing to BSO planning application.
I checked in shared services, the user has the admin access to planning application which is used in the report.
I tried the following:
Checked access to planning application for the user
Restarted the planning application services
Where in logs will i be able to find details?
Can anyone suggest some solution?

Try option 1 then option2:
Please undertake changes in a test environment. Retest issue and if resolved migrate to other appropriate environments.
Option 1:
Verify NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT are at least 1000 & 1500 respectively.
To set NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT:
1. Open Essbase.cfg located in Essbase\Bin directory.
2. Add the following entries
NETDELAY 1000
NETRETRYCOUNT 1500
Restart Essbase agent (windows service)
Option 2:
Please backup the registry before making any manual modification.
1.) Open the Registry
2.) Navigate to Local Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters
3.) Add new DWORD Value named TcpTimedWaitDelay, right click and select Modify. Select decimal radio button, type in 30. (The default value of this parameter is 2 minutes. This is how long it will take for a TCP/IP port that was used by the network for a connection to be released and made available again. 30 sec is the minimum allowed by Microsoft)
4.) Add new DWORD Value named MaxUserPort, right click and select Modify. Select decimal radio button, type in 65534. ( The default value is 5000.
This determines the highest port number TCP can assign when an application requests an available user port from the system.
5.) Add new DWORD Value named MaxFreeTcbs, right click and select Modify.
Select decimal radio button, type in 6250. (The default value is 2000. This determines the number of TCP control blocks (TCBs) the system creates to support active connections. Because each connection requires a control block, this value determines how many active connections TCP can support simultaneously. If all control blocks are used and more connection requests arrive, TCP can prematurely release connections in the TIME_WAIT state in order to free a control block for a new connection.)
The above parameters need to be added to the registry on the Planning and Essbase servers. Reboot the servers after the parameters are added.

PDF Preview working intermittently from workspace for FR reports

We are facing a strange issue while running HFM reports from workspace and taking PDF Preview, the report runs fine but when going for the PDF preview we dont get it every time.

Background Colour Incorrect when exporting to PDF from Crystal Reports 2008

Hello All
When exporting to PDF from CR2008 the background colour of the crosstab is incorrectly displayed. The problem is as follows to create a crosstab with a grey header row and column details in white we have used the following trick.
Format Cross Tab Border Background is set to Silver.
Crosstab Expert Grand Total Background colour is set to white.
The result is a crosstab with header in grey and details in white.
This report displays correctly in CR2008, and exports as seen on screen to everything but PDF. When exporting to PDF the Crosstab is completely grey taking on only the Background colour of silver, and ignoring the Grand Total Background colour being set to white.
What is strange that when I print to PDF the format is also displayed exactly as required,
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Some additional details.
CR2008 version 12.3.1.683
Adobe Reader version 9.3.3
Windows XP Professional
Thanks
Phillip

If this is a big issue for you then please purchase a case and a Rep can duplicate and escalate to R&D.
As a work around export to Editable RTF and in Word 2007 you can get a PDF export plug-in and then export to PDF.
Thank you

Separate Reporting and Analysis from Workspace

In the prior releases we have dedicated a separate server for Financial Reporting modules (FR web, scheduler, print server, etc.). In 11.1.2.x, we have Hyperion Financial Reporting - Web Application and Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Framework - Web Application.
What is the difference between these two? If I want to dedicate a single host for only report generation/report viewing how, could I separate Framework and Web services apart from Workspace (which we want on a server with the rest of Foundation services (HSS/APS/EPMA/OHS/EAS, etc.). Currently I have Reporting and Analysis Framework and Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Framework - Web Application on one server and Financial Reporting - Web Application by itself on a second. Which service needs the most horsepower/resources when executing batches/books and/or the odd 'large report'? I think it was implied that the Web deployments can be on more than one server and one can load balance the two instances. But suppose I really want to isolate the report processing away from Foundation Services/ Is there a recommended way to do that?
Thanks in advance,
-Vince

John,
No, I don't believe it will remove the apps and I have to change the target for each of the three apps to remove them from EPMSever0, and ensure they are in new managed server(s).
That's what I had to do when I separated Planning. (That was your hint, thanks)
Hope my plan is fine. (Sure will be doing a cold backup)
Thanks

HFM icons,explore option and Financial Reporting option missing from Workspace 11.1.2.1

Hi,
We finished installing and configuring hyperion 11.1.2.1. We noticed unusual behavior in Workspace, All the HFM icons are missing from the menu , it is showing some hfm path. Explore option and financial reporting options are also missing from the Preferences and workspace. Can you please advice what could be causing this issue ?
Regards,
Andy

Hi Thanos,
Thanks for the reply. Actually i tried to login to HFM client but it says application not registered. So when i tried to register it from workspace, it gives error. I have already configured all the components but i didn't reconfigure Foundation web server after every component. Is it okay if i do it now when all the components are already configured ? Or do you suggest reconfiguring all the components again followed by Foundation web server ?
Also do you think it will help me get explore option in the workspace ?
Kindly advice. Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Andy

Viewing web analysis reports from workspace

Hi,
How do I publish web analysis report so it can be viewed from the user workspace?
Currently I can see only financial reports.
Thanks,
G

You should be able to see any of your Web Analysis studio created reports in the Workspace (in all of the System 9 versions). Can you as the report designer / admin not see them? Or just the end users? You will need to assign access for end users to be able to see any views.
Thanks, Tracy
