FDM Reports publishing empty contents

Hi All,
We upgraded FDM from 9 to 11.1.2.1 approximately two years back.
The testing was not conducted as the hole and later the issues are raising, Now the problem is No Reports are publishing with contents. Means report window opens with empty content. An additional information that I am able to see the RPX files in the report folder in the installed path. So they migrated the report artifacts also.
Please suggest me how to debug this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
KR

First of all, if they are all doing it, I'd be suspect that some type of configuration item is to blame. What happens if you make a new report?
To help narrow this down, here's what I'd do...
#1 - Go to Server and open Workbench client
#2 - Login / Open App
#3 - In the window pane on the left that Shows Adapters, Scripts, and Reports, click on Reports.
#4 - Find one of the reports in question
#5 - Double click on report which should open the Report Properties window
#6 - Click on the SQL Statement tab
#7 - Click on the Zoom button
#8 - Click on the Preview Data button
If no data here, there is EITHER some form of a communication issue between FDM/Reports and database. or there's no data....
Then I'd .....
#1 - Copy the SQL Statement
#2 - Connect to SQL Server and execute query against database to see if data is returned.
If data is found, there is a communication issue (physical or user access to tables) between FDM and your database, review database settings to confirm that settings look correct on FDM And confirm in the database that the user being used has access to the tables
being referenced...
If you did get data from the query, then I'd look more carefully at the report itself.
#1 - In reports panel on the left, right click on the report you are investigating and Design Report
#2 - Verify the report open in the designer correctly.
#3 - At the top of the report area are two tabs, Design and Preview. Click on Preview and it will then generate a report. Verify if this is working.
Depending on how that turns out, you might get more clues as to where to look next.

Scheduling of report publishing in Content Admin Workbench

Is it possible to schedule the publishing of Crystal Reports in the Content Adminstration Workbench? There is a "Scheduled Jobs" folder in the Operations pane but I can't figure out how to create a scheduled publishing job. I know I've seen this feature in earlier versions of the Integration Kit. Is it still available? If so, how do you set up a schedule?

Hi,
no it is not possible to schedule. The schedule jobs as to do with possible steps in the Content Workbench - also explained in the installation guide / user guide for the SAP Integration Kit.

I generate file (PDF, HTML, etc) the report is empty but I run in paper

Hi
I use oracle Report10g
When I generate file (PDF, HTML, etc) the report is empty but I run in paper design show data, the report in the paper design show many pages, when generate file show only the information of the margin in the main seccion and the body is empty,
Thanks

Thanks Daniel for pointing that out. Though you answer is helpful but I am not sure if that is what I would want to do.
The link you provide for csv says "For each report there's an _report.xdo file that contains the XML structure of the report... " It suggests I modify the .xdo file for each report. I currently have 16 reports.
Does it mean I modify the .xdo file for all 16 and what happens if someone creates a 17th report ?
Also, what if I run the same report using different input parameters will that change the xml structure for the report and therefore will need me to modify the .xdo again ? (I think it should not change the xml structure so the answer should be "NO" to that, unless I change the structure of the report).
Finally, the link you provide says after doing what it suggest "Now log back into BI publisher and select the report. You should now be able to see that CSV is now an option."
CSV should be an option where ? on what screen/page ? Maybe PDF is already an option for me that I cant see because I do not know where that option is.
I was hoping there would be something I could do on the xdo_metadata sheet (in the data constraints section or elsewhere) OR in BI Publisher itself as some property of the report.
I will try out what you suggest any ways.

FDM Report Engine - MS Office

I need to publish FDM report in default view - MS Excel Office in Web on the Check step (4th fish).
I changed in Workbench Report Properties parameter "Report Engine" from Active to MS Office i have an error while launching a report.
Maybe there are some extra settings or extra xml scripts which i need to do for success display reports with parameter in Report Engine - MS Office?
Waiting for your answers.
Thanks
El

The report engine must be set to "Active" for all of the reports to run successfully, this cannot be changed.
The report default publish type Can be changed in the "Web Settings"
Choose Administraiton > Web Settings
Set the Default Report Publish Type to WORD from the default setting of PDF and save.
If you would like users to change this in their settings check the "Enable Default Report Type Override" and then user can change this in user settings if they do not want it to be Word.

How to open Crystal Reports from Business Content Ext BW

Hi friends,
I have activated 0CR_FIAA_M20_Q0007 Crystal Reports from Business Content Ext BW and I have configurated BW_Publisher services in BW but I do´t see reports in /CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN.
I check RFC connection and it´s ok

Do I have to create special role with especial authorization?
How do I save this Crystal reports in a Rol?

XML Publisher Error with reports published in XML publisher

Hi All,
I am geting the following error with a report published using XML Publisher
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
The system cannot locate the resource specified. Error processing resource 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.d...
How can i Rectify this?

Hi Ark,
In order to generate a report using xml publisher. we need the following.
1. XML Data
2. Template file (RTF/PDF/..)
XML data will not be created by the template file.
We will be required to create XML data. One of the easiest way to create xml output is using the RDF. We can change the rdf output type in the concurrent program to XML.
Once the xml and the template is available, "XML Report Publisher" will be able to generate the output in the required format.
Thanks,

Problem calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports.
Basically, I'm trying to customise Dunning Letter program. The program which is submitted calls another program. I have customised the second program and added a call to a stored procedure which in turn calls XML Report Publisher.I have created a template and attached it to the second program as well.
The procedure code is as follows.
v_request_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST(application => 'AR'
,program => 'ARDLP_NON_SRS'
,description => 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'
,sub_request => FALSE
l_status := fnd_concurrent.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
( REQUEST_ID => v_request_id,
INTERVAL => 15,
MAX_WAIT => 180,
PHASE => l_phase,
STATUS => l_status_code,
DEV_PHASE => l_dev_phase,
DEV_STATUS => l_dev_status,
MESSAGE => l_message );
v_xml_req_id := FND_REQUEST.submit_request(application => 'XDO',
program => 'XDOREPPB',
          argument1 => v_request_id,
argument2 => 'FLS DE AR Dunning Letter Print - German',
argument3 => 603, -- changed 665 -- was 551,
argument4     => NULL,
argument5 => 'N',
argument6     => 'RTF',
          argument7     => 'PDF');
Now, there are two problems I'm facing...
1. when the second program('Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate') gets called it executes this procedure ... logically the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate' should get called twice ... second time from the procedure. Its getting called multiple times .. as many as 15 - 20 times.
2. The Xml Report Publisher program ultimately gets called but its erroring out with the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: No corresponding LOB data found :SELECT L.FILE_DATA FILE_DATA, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(L.FILE_DATA) FILE_LENGTH, L.LANGUAGE LANGUAGE, L.TERRITORY TERRITORY, B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY DEFAULT_TERRITORY,B.TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.START_DATE START_DATE, B.END_DATE END_DATE, B.TEMPLATE_STATUS TEMPLATE_STATUS, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.DS_APP_SHORT_NAME DS_APP_SHORT_NAME, B.DATA_SOURCE_CODE DATA_SOURCE_CODE, L.LOB_TYPE LOB_TYPE FROM XDO_LOBS L, XDO_TEMPLATES_B B WHERE (L.LOB_TYPE = 'TEMPLATE' OR L.LOB_TYPE = 'MLS_TEMPLATE') AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME= :1 AND L.LOB_CODE = :2 AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = B.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME AND L.LOB_CODE = B.TEMPLATE_CODE AND ( (L.LANGUAGE = :3 AND L.TERRITORY = :4 ) OR (L.LANGUAGE = :5 AND L.TERRITORY = :6) OR (L.LANGUAGE= B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE AND L.TERRITORY= B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY ) )
I have checked from database that the XDO_LOBS/ XDO_TEMPLATES_B table has corresponding registration data.
I don't know what's creating the problem.
If anyone has customised the Dunning Letter program before or having any idea about this problem, please help me out ..
Thanks

Overide XML Report Publisher renaming?

Anyone know if it is possible to prevent the XML Report Publisher report from renaming the concurrent request on completion. This makes it very difficult for users to understand what requests are, especially when they are automatically submitted from other concurrent programs.
For example in EBS 11.5.10+ I have a dunning letter custom where the standard "Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate" process submits the bursting program and 2 instances of XML Report Publisher, one for the printed dunning letters and one for the summary report. We could live with the bursting report name but both the XML Report Publisher instances complete with the same name! How is the user supposed to know what is what?
Cheers,
Dave

Glad someone else thinks so!
I can see the reason behind what it does and it's fine for manually submitted "XML Report Publisher" requests but when you get to submitting it from another concurrent program the renaming is a pain, especially if you are submitting multiple reports from the same request (e.g. detail and summary reports). Users just don't know what they are supposed to be looking at!
Hopefully Tim will pick it up but I suspect it will have to be a future fix rather than something we can change right now. Roll on a new release for EBS!
Cheers,
Dave

XML Report Publisher program is erroring out

Hi All,
I've customized the AR Customer Statements.
I've created a data definition as "ARXSGP" and uploded the sample_output.xml of Statement Generation Program to it. Also I've created a Data template as "ARXSGPO" and attached the data definition "ARXSGP" to it and uploaded the customized rtf file "XXHCC_CLE_F_ARCUSBALSL.rtf" and set the default output type to PDF.
As I donot wish to call the XML Report Publisher program manually every time when I Print the Statements through Print Documents-->Statements.
So I've done the below customization in ARXSGP.rdf file ie; Print Statements Report which is an Oracle Report.
I've added the below code in After Report trigger.

If I select PDF – comes out properly as PDF
If I select HTML – comes out properly as HTML
If I select RTF – comes out properly as RTF
But only If I select EXCEL – comes out properly as HTML
Does any one know what is this???
I badly need the EXCEL output from ‘XML Report Publisher’ because I have developed a template for a seeded process,
XML Report Publisher is the only way to get the output for these kind of Spawned reports.
Help will be highly appreciated!!!

XML Report Publisher - Blank Report Request Parameter

Hi
I have a custom template and custom data definition in Purchasing application. I ran PO Output For Communication and it generated the PDF. Now I want to do Bursting.
So, I assigned XML Report Publisher and XML Bursting (both out-of-box programs) to Purchasing responsibility. But when I try to run them, I don't see any values in Request ID LOV.
Please suggest what am I missing in there.
Thanks,
NewBie

NewBiePlease confirm that you have added those concurrent programs to the correct Request Group which is attached to the same responsibility.
From (System Administrator responsibility > Security > Responsibility > Define) query the responsibility name and get the Request Group. Then from (System Administrator responsibility > Security > Responsibility > Request), query the Request Group and add those concurrent programs.

SAP Netweaver Portal - Folder structure and report publishing strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working on a project in which we are publishing BW reports in SAP Netweaver Portal (prior to this, we were using SAP Bex Browser) organizing it by Department (workset, 2nd lvl of navigation), Business Processes (workset, 3rd lvl of navigation) and "iview types" (transactions, queries, dashboards and so on). On 1st level we have a workset simply called "Reports".
For each PFCG role we have on BW (ABAP Server), we created a portal role and defined which of the higher navigation tiers is visible to users (delta-linking the top level navigation worksets to the portal role and setting visible accordingly) and then we assigned Portal roles to the appropriated Group (PFCG role) so all users that have access to certain PFCG role can have access to the corresponding Portal role.
For example:
In BW (ABAP) we have a PFCG Role: Sales PMR Analysis - Administrator, which grants access to Sales Infoproviders, queries and data for PMR analysis. The user that have access to it, should be able to see:
|Reports|
|Sales Administration|
v PMR Analysis
> Web Queries
> Transactions
> Dashboards
> Workbooks
In Portal we create a workset that has: "Reports" and under it, all Departments (Sales Administration, Financial, Services, Human Resources and so on) set as "not visible". We create a Portal role called PMR Analysis and add the Report/Departments workset, set Sales Administration as visible and add worksets/folders named PMR Analysis, Web queries, Transactions, etc, and all the corresponding iviews under it.
If we assign this new Portal role to the Group of the corresponding PFCG role, the user will see exactly as the example from above.
Pros: The users have a clean view of the reports he/she has access.
Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist.
One of the options would be to grant visibility to ALL departments, business processes and iviews in Portal and let PFCG security roles control user access, but that might be confusing to have an overwhelming amount of links, making it hard to find what the user needs, specially during first access. Not to mention possible security breaches.
So, I'd like to know how other consultants are defining this kind of folder structure and report publishing strategy in Portal. Ideally we would like to be able to have:
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
I'd appreciate if you guys can share your experience on this.
Thanks in advance.

This is not a refutation: your BW developers/consultants should be able to write reports, which points you in case of insufficent backend rights. EP is not designed to be familiar with ABAP security concept and cant take any influence at it.

Yes, bad idea.
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
As you already wrote on your own, this would be not good
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
This is not covered by SAP, if you wanna provide that, develop it on your own.

Enable reporting of offensive content not working in sharepoint 2013 community site

i am trying to enable "Report to moderator option" in community site but when i checked option "Enable reporting of offensive content" in a community site settings and clicked Ok. I am getting an error "The file is not checked out.You
must first check out this document before making changes."
i am not sure why i am getting this error, the same thing works fine in other community site's i have created.
This community is a backup restore of another community site.
Is there any other way by which i can enable 'reporting of offensive content'.
Any pointer's to solve this will be helpful.

My emails are Blank! Empty content since 10.18am this morning...

Just want to second this - I woke up this morning to find some of my emails displaying blank/empty content...
It turns out that the blank emails are everything incoming since a certain time (10.18am). This was half way through my mail session - all before are fine. All after are not.
I can see everything in the header (Subject, to, from etc) but then there's nothing in the body.
Not in the main viewer window. Not in it's own viewer window. Not even when I locate the message on the hard drive and check it using quick look.
On the web, where I can also view the email (Network Solutions) everything is fine.
Any ideas?

I did it and it didn't work.
Should I restore the index file that I copied to my desktop or the Mail folder itself - it didn't seem to do any harm...it just didn't fix this stinking problem.
I just sent another test message. It still comes in fine on account #2, but account #1 still has the problem of the message being blank - incidentally, all message from this Forum are still blank but I can read it if I View/Message/Raw Source.
I'm off to bed now. Hopefully, you have another trick up your sleeve. I don't understand what is going on.
One more thing to note. I just now tried Entourage (which I stopped using since I wanted to be a tru Mac user). The messages show up with no send or subject. When I open them, it's like viewing it in the Raw Source from above.
