Ext. data source and Tree component
Im using tree component and XMLConnector here.
as far as i can see results in my tree (when testing my
movie) it ouputs data thats loaded fom ext. XML file.
But the problem is that it publishes [type Function] in the
tree.
no actual xml nodes are visible, just bunch of [type
Function]
ive also searched for info / tutorial how to publish actual
xml data in the tree component but without any luck.
So what should i do and how ?
Solved
xml tags needed just a label with attributes

Data Source and Application Component
Dear Experts,
I am a beginner of BI and I create a Data Source but I forgot to create an "Application Component" beforehand.
Now I create an "Application Component" individually and trying to drug my "Data Source" to the "Application Component", but failed. It is said that a drug and drop will be ok but I found it is not working.
So my question is:
How to put the Data Source under the "Application Component" ?
Regards,
Sophie QueHi,
After assigning to new application component you need to replicate the application component in target system (BW).
Thanks,

BusinessObjects Explorer The creation of the data source object tree failed
Hi,
I'm trying to create a new information space in BusinessObjects Explorer 4.0. When I select the Universe I want to use and click "New" Information Space I get the following error.
Failed to retrieve the data source details.
The creation of the data source object tree failed.
I'm just using a local installation, BI Platform 4.0, Client Tools, and Explorer are all installed on my Windows 7 machine. It's intended to be a demo environment.
Any guidance would be appreciated!
JeffHi Jeff,
first of all BI4 Enterprise is not supported on Windows 7 and it may not work properly for various reasons.
But you can give this a try:
Update the command line parametres of each of the Explorer Services to use a different value for the connection server libraries
The changes are made to the command line of each of the Explorer services
- Master
- Exploration
- Indexing
- Search
Remove the following from the command line parameters of the existing Explorer services
-connectivity_dir "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer"
Example of the original Explorer Master server command line parameters:
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dosgi.configuration.area=configuration.BI40.ExplorerMasterServer1 -server -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dosgi.clean=true -Xmx1g -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20081125.jar -loggingPath "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0/logging/" -connectivity_dir "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer" -serverkind explorerMaster
And update the server command line parameters with the following:
"-Dbusinessobjects.connectivity.directory=C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer"
Example of an updated Explorer Master server command line parameters:
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dosgi.configuration.area=configuration.BI40.ExplorerMasterServer -server -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dosgi.clean=true -Xmx1g -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20081125.jar -loggingPath "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0/logging/" -Dbusinessobjects.connectivity.directory="C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer" -serverkind explorerMaster -
OWB 10g -- Can't Create Database Links for Data Source and Target
We installed OWB 10g server components on a Unix box running Oracle 10g (R2) database. The Designer Repository is in one instance. The Runtime Repository and the Target are in another instance. The OWB client component was installed on Windows XP. We create a data source module and a target module in OWB. The data source is on another Unix box running Oracle 9i (R2) database. We try to create database links for data source module and target module, respective. But when we created and tested the DB links, the DB links were failed.
For the database link of data source, we got the following error message:
Testing...
Failed.
SQL Exception
Repository Error:SQL Exception..
Class Name: CacheMediator.
Method Name: getDDEntryFromDB.
Repository Error Message: ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred
For the database link of target , we got the following error message:
Testing...
Failed.
API2215: Cannot create database link. Please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and the details on how to reproduce it.
Repository Error:SQL Exception..
Class Name: oracle.wh.ui.integrator.common.RepositoryUtils.
Method Name: createDBLink(String, String, String, String).
Method Name: -1.
Repository Error Message: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended.
However, we could connect to the two databases (data source and target) using the OWBs utility SQL Plus.
Please help us to solve this problem. Thank you.As I said prior the database link creation should work from within the OWB client (also in 10).
Regarding your issue when deploying, have you registered your target locations in the deployment manager and did you first deployed your target location's connector which points out to your source?
I myself had some problems with database link creations in the past and I can't remember exactly what they were but it had something to do with
- the use of abnormal characters in the database link name
- long domain name used in as names.default_domain in my sqlnet.ora file
What you can do is check the actual script created when deploying the database link so see if there's something strange and check if executing the created script manually works or not. -

Create two or more data sources and mapping to DSO
Hi,
I´m using SAP Netweaver BI 7.0.
If there are two or three data sources which have to be mapped to DSO which field from Data Sources has to be mapped to which field in DSO?
Is it possible to have only one DSO or should it be three DSOs because of the three Data Sources?
The thing is I have created one view out of three tables. For the view I have created one DSO. Everything worked fine. But now the requirements have changed because of currencies.
The view I have created is now mixing currencies because in the view is only one currency field, which is filled from the three tables. Two tables have different currencies and one table has one currency.
The one currency of the one table is important and should stay like it is.
I´m thinking about something like three different currency key fields in DSO which are mapped from data source. Also for every field of data source mapping with corresponding field in DSO.
Some hints? I have found articles in SDN about creating data sources and so on but they don´t help me in this matter.
Thank you in advance!Thank you guys for explaining! I´m new to SAP BW and trying to better understand.
I`ll try it also with the view. It sounds "easier".
But if I´m doing it with the 3 data sources, that means that for each currency field of the data source I will need an corresponding currency field in the DSO for mapping.
Is it possible to have 3 times the 0Currency field in the DSO and each data source currency field will be mapped to the DSO?
If that would work the 0Currency has to be contained in the key figures.
But if the 0Currency is contained in each key figure will the assignment of currency work correct?
+For example:+
Data Source1:
Turnover in Euro.
(All currency is in Euro)
Data Source2:
Profit in Dollar.
Profit in Euro.
Profit in Yen.
Profit in different currencies available.
Data Source3:
Sales in Dollar.
Sales in Euro.
Sales in Yen.
Sales in different currencies available.
For mapping from DataSources to DSO if it is possible to have 3 times 0Currency in DSO:
Data Source1 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Data Source2 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Data Source3 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Does it make sense? -
Create a ReportingServices data source and upload to a data connection library
I have installed reporting services 2012 in SharePoint 2013 integrated mode. I need to create a report data source and upload it to a data connection library using
C#.
As I know it uses the ReportingServices2010 class but I cannot explore a reporting server url.
There is a ReportingServices2010.asmx file in the 15 hive though.
Also it works fine when I manually set the data source.Hi,

Thanks,
RamHi Jayanthi Babu Peruri,
I tried to extract YEAR, MONTH, DAY separately and using
EDIT MASK written it.
Definitely there will be some STANDARD CONVERSION ROUTINE will be there. But no idea about it.
DATA : V_TS TYPE TIMESTAMP,
V_TS_T TYPE CHAR16,
V_YYYY TYPE CHAR04,
V_MM TYPE CHAR02,
V_DD TYPE CHAR02.
START-OF-SELECTION.
GET TIME STAMP FIELD V_TS.
V_TS_T = V_TS.
CONDENSE V_TS_T.
V_YYYY = V_TS_T.
V_MM = V_TS_T+4(2).
V_DD = V_TS_T+6(2).
V_TS_T(2) = V_MM.
V_TS_T+2(2) = V_DD.
V_TS_T+4(4) = V_YYYY.
SKIP 10.
WRITE : /10 V_TS," USING EDIT MASK '____-__-________'.
/10 V_YYYY,
/10 V_MM,
/10 V_DD,
/10 V_TS_T USING EDIT MASK '__-__-__________'.
If you want DATE alone, just declare the length of V_TS_T as 10.

i added 0AMOUNT in generic data source and in rsa3 i am seeing the data ..but i am not seeing any data in target table..
what would be the causeHi,
I guess you mean the target table in BW, correct?
First replicate your DSource in BW
Open your TRules. In tab Transfer structure/Datasource locate your field in the right pane (should be greyed, not blue); move it from to the left (to the transfer structure); reactivate and reload.
You should now see the field in your PSA table.
hope this helps...

The error below makes absolutely no sense! I'm using Enterprise Core...yet I'm being told I can't use remote data sources:
w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: i INFO: Catalog SQL Server Edition = EnterpriseCore

Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database." is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.;
Really? This totally contradicts the documentation found here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.110).aspx
That article says remote connections are completely supported.
ARGH! Why does this have to be so difficult to setup?!?Hi jeffoliver1000,
According to your description, you are using Enterprise Core edition and you are prompted that you can’t use remote data sources.
In your scenario, we neither ignore your point nor be doubt with what you say. But actually we have met the case before that even though the SQL Server engine is Enterprise but the reporting services is still standard. So I would recommend you to find the
actual edition of reporting services you are using. You can find Reporting Services starting SKU in the Reporting Service logs ( default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<instance name>\Reporting Services\LogFiles). For more information,
please refer to the similar thread below:

By the way, have you installed the other SQL Server edition before?

Create a data source and database tables using WSAD
Hi, guys:
the following is from a tutorial:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/techjournal/0306_wosnick/wosnick.html
"To create the data source and Cloudscape database tables automatically, right click on the HelloWorldServer in the Servers view, and select the Create tables and data sources menu item. A dialog will then display showing that the data source and database tables were created successfully (Figure 5)."
I am using WSAD 5.0 trial version. I cannot find Create tables and data sources menu item if I right click on the HelloWorldServer in the Servers view. I am wondering if this is because trial version does not have this feature?

Excel data source and the use of add command
HI, Looking for suggestions on how to work with multiple inputs that cannot be joined directly. Here's the background.
The Report currently reads in two different Ecel files and uses 3 SQL commands to query an Oracle Database. I need to join the 5 data sources and am having issues with the 2 excel files. In one file I need to be able to derive a field based on another column in the file In order to create the join condition to the SQL commands. I'd equate this to a case statement in SQL, but how goes one do that using the 'add command' feature? What is the syntax?
Next I would need to join (left outer) the two excel files using two fields from file A (a1, a2) and 3 fields from file B (b1,b2,b3), where a1=b1 and b2 <= a2 <= b3 when rows from A exist in B. If row A does not exist in B then we still want it in the report and available to left outer join to the 3 oractab data sources.
runtime is also a concern.
Any Suggestions?hi Elena,
in this case the use of subreports is not recommended. that's because you're exporting to excel and you need data in columns across the report. subreports will not, unfortunately, give you what you need.
this would bring you back to joining the datasources. what i would recommend is looking into using 'oracle database link' to link your oracle db to excel files. here's one article as an example but you may be able to find a better one. if you have questions on this please ask them on an oracle forum as the syntax that you need will be database specific.
a lot of databases have this type of technology which allows you to create a view to other data. sql server has 'linked servers', sap hana has 'smart data access'. essentially you are creating a non-materialized view to the external data. then this view is available on the main oracle server where you established this connection. this should be a lot easier than trying to bring a bunch of command objects together off independent datasources inside of crystal.
