Financial reportin,Interactive reporting and web analysis

Hi,
Could anyone help me in what kind of reports exactly generates by the above 3 tools.How we will generate reports using financial reporting.i mean to say what process we will follow .
In a financial domain project , what we will do exactly with the above three tools.
I am quite interested to know as much info as i can on these 3 tools.
replies will be highly appreciated.

This is quite a big subject and you need to do more investigation, but as a starter for ten (these are high level views only)
Financial Reporting - is used to create high quality, high format reports - ideal for finance based use
Web Analysis - is used as a more interactive visual tool, with emphasis on exceptions/graphs and drilling etc
Interactive reporting - is one of the old Brio tools and is more of a BI reporting tool
There is a Query and Reporting forum at Hyperion Query and Reporting that might be useful to post on.
Hope this helps.

Unable to open reports and web analysis document in workspace

After installing reports and analysis 9.3.1, when I am trying to preview a test report on web or as a pdf preview I am getting these kind of errors.
<BR><BR>
Required application module analyzer.reportview is not configured. Please contact your administrator.
<BR><BR>
When I click OK on this it says communication error which says <BR><BR>
"http://hyprepdev.acml.com:19000/WebAnalysis/conf/AnalyzerConfig.xml?LOCALE_LANGUAGE=en <H1>SRVE0255E: A WebGroup/Virtual Host to handle /WebAnalysis/conf/AnalyzerConfig.xml has not been defined.</H1><BR><H3>SRVE0255E: A WebGroup/Virtual Host to handle hyprepdev.acml.com:19000 has not been defined.</H3><BR><I>IBM WebSphere Application Server</I>"
<BR><BR><BR><BR>
Similarly when I try to open as pdf preview I am getting the same error.<BR>
Kindly advice.

Try changing the idle connection timeout on your Web Intelligence Processing Server to 60 minutes (from the CMC).
If this doesn't work, please add a trace to the Web Intelligence Processing Server (add a -trace to the command line parameters of the server). and post the log for the relevant time period.

FR and Web Analysis reports will not run in workspace

I have configured both FR and Web Analysis and then re-configured workspace to pick them up. 'Reporting and Analysis shows up in my foundation metadata under workspace. All my related ports are enabled.
Database connection manager, import financial reporting reports, preferences financial reporting, tools/link to web analysis, do not appear in workspace.
get 'required application context analyzer is missing. please contact your adminstrator.' error when try to run a web analysis or financial reporting report from workspace.
Web analysis as a client with reports is working fine.
Financial reporting allows me to create a database connection, create a report, pdf preview from the client but web preview breaks with generic page not found error.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Hi,
You can use panel while creating reports and put all the graphs on it .
Panels color can be changed.
Thanks

Migrating HFR and Web Analysis Reports and Documents

Dear All,
Is there any way I can migrate HFR and Web Analysis Reports and Documents from test environments to production instead of re-creating reports?
Thanks,
ioGGo.

For HFR reports,
- If you want to do a bulk export, then choose File->Export & select multiple reports & save to a .zip file when prompted. In this case, reports' folder hierarchy is maintained the same as in source.
- If you want to do a selective export, select the folder(where your report is present) from the (left)navigation pane. Then choose File->Export, select the report & save to a .des file when prompted.
For WAS reports,
you may export each report definition from File -> Export. I believe- it'd let you save as .apt file.
However, for both type of reports, you need to ensure the respective database connection file(s) are already present before you import the reports/documents in your prod. environment.

Interactive reporting using web client in Hyperion Workspace

Hi all,
I was trying to create a new interactive report using following process:
1)Logon to Workspace using browser
2)File -> New -> document
3)select the option: "Create interactive reporting document"
4)Browse for .oce file
5)Click finish, once the .oce file is selected.
After these steps:
Initially I was getting message regarding checking web client status...
this was taking lots of time so I cancelled the process and restarted from step 1.
Now, after step 5, I am getting a file save option showing source of file as server of the Workspace.I am working on a local machine and accessing the workspace product through web browser.
If I save this file in local machine I don't get an option to open this file from workspace using :
File -> open -> document.
and alternatively if try to open this locally from the machine I don't have proper application on my local machine.
I am badly trapped in this viscious circle.... Kindly help.
Also, it will be gr8 if somebody could suggest some link for understanding the process of creating a new interactive report , using web client on workspace.
Thanks in advance..

Hi all,
I got to know that import and export option is available with "user->reports" and "file in report folder" respectively, when we go for Explore option.
So storing to local machine and retrieving it back is no more a problem.
But still I have hardly any idea as to how to start with interactive reporting in Workspace using web client.
If any of you come across any such tutorial on interactive reporting using web client on workspace please tell.
I come to know that Interactive reporting studio is available for interactive reporting purpose: any of you please tell me if "reporting and analysis client.." available on oracle edelivery is sufficient for interactive reporting studio or we need to install something specific for working with Interactive reporting studio.

Interactive Reports and PL/SQL Functions

Hi,
Am new to the interactive reports, and it appears to be I can only use a single SELECT statement to populate the report.
I need to convert some older reports to the new interactive reports, but these are populated using PL/SQL functions, as the WHERE clause is built up depending on the selection of items on the web page.
How can I replicate this with the new interactive reports? Have used CASE statements within a SELECT statement before, can I also use these in a WHERE clause as well?
Regards
Simon

To my knowledge, currently the only way to use Interactive Reports is on a static query. And unfortunately you can't use CASE statements in the WHERE clause of a query, only in the select list.
The way I would (and have) attacked this is to:
1. Write the base static query as the basis of the interactive report
2. Access the interactive report in while logged in as a developer
3. Build a filter (or set of filters) and save the report. You have the choice of saving it as a named report or as the default report.
This gives the user one to many filter sets they can use as a starting point and tweak, and gives them examples as to how they can and should use the interactive filtering.

Creatin crucial report in web analysis

Hi,Experts
Here is an interesting issue.we have Actual and Forecast data.
In generating the reports using web analysis for one crucial report.we have version number which is a memebr of version dimension.Based on the version number selected,it must show only the forecasted data and not the actuals data in the report.
How can we show to users in the web analysis reporting. Is there any approach to do at Cube level?
(Thing is that there should be a link between version and time)
Clear explenation: If we select particalar version number "v1003" ,the data must be displayed in the reports from current month to next 24 months,the before actuals must not be displayed.
Regards,
Vardhan..

Reports in Web Analysis most probably generate MDX queries which are sent to Essbase to fetch the results. I've never come across to something like MDX profiler for essbase as this could have been the only way to capture those queries.
Cheers,
Alp

The Top/Bottom functionality is available via the right click Analysis Tools option. To get to thisget out of design mode and view the report and then right click on the row/col that you want to perform the restriction on.
the Top/Bottom option is then available.

Interactive report in Web Dyn Pro

Hi.
How to do the Interactive Report in Web Dyn Pro Application.
In selection screen i give the VBELN data.
Based on VBELN i want display VBAK data First.
If i am double click on the Sales Document Number of VBAK then i want display the VBAP data.
Thank You.

Hi Krishna,
Try going through this [example here|http://****************/Tutorials/WebDynproABAP/Modalbox/page1.htm]. The application has 2 views created, one for input screen for entering customer number and other for displaying the sales order details for the chosen customer. The user enters a customer number on the main view & clicks on a button to fetch the data. The system then displays the corresponding sales orders of this customer in a pop up window. The user then selects 1 sales order from the popup window and presses on another button. It would then go back to the main view & display the corresponding sales items for the selected sales order number.

Uday

Workspace and Web Analysis - null folder automatically created

Hi.
We have recently installed BI+ service pack 9.3.1.3. Since that, we have been experiencing problems on Workspace and Web Analysis: in particular, a null folder is automatically created as users login to Web Analysis Studio.
Moreover, it is not possible to assign Web Analysis' shared preferences, because of that null folder. In fact, users' preferences always shows path to null folder: for example, Document Folder path points to /Users/null/Reports for every user logged in to Web Analysis Studio. By this way, it is not possible to save changes.
Looking at BIPLUS repository, I noticed that in HYA_DB_PREFS table, there is a record containing NULL value for field USERNAME. I was wondering whether this record normally exist in the table or it could be related to the problem that we are experiencing. Does anyone have similar record in his installed BI+ environment?
Thanks a lot in advance for help

Hi Andrea
Since the installation from service pack 9.3.1.3 we've new problems on Workspace and Web Analysis too.
Null folder ist automaticall created as users login to Web Analysis Studio
And it is not possible to save changes in Workspace Preferences, except I'm login as Administrator
Have you found a solution?
Thanks a lot.

Interactive report and ALV s in HR ABAP.

hi all,
can any one tell , how to do Interactive reporting and alv's in HR ABAP. with some example reports..

Hi Rao
Nothing changes for HR ABAP when it comes to ALV or Interactive Lists. Only the DATA fetching process is changed. To fetch HR data , you use Logical Database PNP or Clusters or just read a specific infotype using a method.
Here is a sample program for ALV 'BALVST02_GRID'. For interactive list , use this demo program
DEMO_LIST_INTERACTIVE_1. It is a series of Demo Programs which you can open in SE38.
Reward Points, if helpful.
