Format/justification problem in web reports
Hi ,
We are running the reports3.0 from forms5.0 using the run
product. The application is web enabled using the developer 2000
server.
The text in the report is Justifed ( Left and right
justification). If I run the reports with the destination type as
screen it is displaying with left and right justification. If the
Destination type is printer then the reports justification is not
correct( It is coming with no justification ).
The developer 2000 is 2.1 version and developer 2000 server is
also 2.1 version.
Any one of you has faced this problem.Please reply ASAP.
Thanks

There is no standard way to do it.
You can manually use javascripting to create custom hover boxes.
You will have to understand the way HTML generates (it has flat image and AREA maps which isolate the areas of flag image w/ coordinates). Then enhance the AREA maps to override the standard hover boxes.
If you know javascript very well then you can use even available javascript frameworks to get highly customizable hover boxes. But it will involve considerable effort.

After confiming scheduling job (loggin in with "administrator" user), status remains "pending" forever(using Infoview or CMC).
I tried different job recurrence a modalities (attachment formats, destination user etc).
I also try to add (-javaArgs "Xmx900m,Xincgc,server") wich is the SAP solution found on its portal but it does not work.
I use BO XI 3.1 in Windows 2003 server, after the install I reduced the maximum memory of Java in the tomcat 5.5.2 server from 1024 to 512 because the server never started with the initial size.
Please I need Help.
thanks in advance,
SamyHi,
Below SAP solution found found in BOB Forum.
I applied this solution and now everything works fine !!
I just add this -javaArgs "Xmx900m,Xincgc,server" in the command line of the server
Hope this helps:

How to format popup info in web reports
Hi Forum,
maybe it's quite easy, but I've no idea if or how I can format the popups
in web-reports, that come up if you hover a graph.
The current output is e.g.:
1/4 Figure-description category value
Is there a way to format the upcomming popup like the formatting you can do for series with $abs and $label?
Thanks in advance for any idea.

Formatting error while exporting webi report to excel
Hello,
I have a webi report which I have to export to excel . I have the header and the body both in the body of the report. I have the sections in the report and the report has about 40 coloumns. After converting to excel all the coloumns are being minimized automatically , I am having to manually expand each coloumn in excel to see the data.
I am using Busines Objects 3.1 sp3.
Can anyone please help!
ThanksHello,
Check the properties of the columns in Webi. If they are set to automatic width, this may be causing the problem.. Sections may also have something to do with it. Make a copy of the report and play with the things mentioned above, and see what results you get. This may point you to the problem.
Also look at the option in properties to export to excel where it considers format over data. It is an option in document properties if I remember correctly.

Problem in WEBI Report with PCM OLAP Universe (PCM MDX Connector)
We need to create reports in Web Intelligence from our PCM Models (Business Objects Profitability and Cost Management). We are able to create the olap universe using PCM MDX Connector and we have no problems creating the reports in webi. The problem is when we execute the report (run query): all the data from PCM model is loaded correctly (dimensions, levels, etc.), except the Measures. I mean, the values of all the measures are always zero (0). No matter the way we change the query (adding filters, adding or chopping dimensions, drilling levels, etc.) the value for every measure is zero.
We've checked the aggretation method of each measure in BO universe designer and are all correctly configured.
The model in PCM is calculated and even when we run the queries in PCM Model Builder tool directly to the model, the results are retrieved Ok and the measures have correct values (Revenue, lineitem values, etc.).
Any ideas of what is going on?Hi Henry… thanks for your answer…
The reports we are creating of PCM are not from BW universes, but PCM OLAP Universes. PCM have its own cube OLAP files, and BO universes for those OLAP models use the Business Objects PCM MDX Driver.
Nevertheless I will try to catch the MDX statement, as you suggest, and see if something is wrong with it.
The versions we have are: “Business Objects Enterprise 12.3 build 601” and “Business Objects Profitability and Cost Management (PCM) 7.5.11”
Thanks again.

I have resolved this, there are two ways to do it.

PROBLEMS WITH WEBI REPORTING FORM BW DATASOURCE
Hi Experts,
We need some help here !
I installed BOXI 3.1 with SAP Integration Kit, also Installed transports on SAP BW 7 following the installation guide, OS= Solaris 10 . We already put all the authorizations as the documentation says, and started to make a universe on a top a BEx Queries and directly on top Infocube, the universe is generated automatically OK ! , in both cases.
Then we export them and publish them OK, but here is the issue: When we try to create a simple report with no more than tow dimensions and one ratio, the report don´t data returns at all !
Could be an Autorizations issue ? Transports ? SAP Integration Kit Issue??
Thanks for your ideas !!
HugoHi Hugo,
can you provide the calculation the ratio you mentioned? I assume we are talking about a calculated figure on SAP BW or a formula added in the Query designer. If you have access to the individual components of the calculation in the universe, just try to build a simple report only with those and see if data are displayed.
Furthermore would be great to check what happens when you let the query run in the SAP BW query designer. Do you have at least on entry (dimension) in the Rows section and at least the ratio in the columns section there? Do get data displayed when you let the query run in BEx Analyser for the same parameter set that you are using in your WebI?
I also may be helpful to know which support package is currently installed on your SAP BI system.

Problem Exporting Webi report to Excel in Edit mode
I have posted this question on BOB forum [http://forumtopics.org/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=189429&sid=8539bfcc4dbbf782ba1a9950085373ed] and found no response so I am cross posting here.
I have two environments: Enterprise XI 3.1 SP2 and Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 FP3.6. On both instances when I open reports in web intelligence and try to export it to excel (using Save to my computer as Excel) I will get a "file download" dialog box asking me if I want to open, save or cancel. However when I am in Edit mode I get the same options to save/open only in the first instance(SP2), what I get in sp3 is a somewhat different "save docuemnt" dialog box (with a save as type all files not explicitly excel), doesnt allow users to open at all. I need your help to get the file download option to open/save when i export reports to excel in the second instance too. BTW it works fine for PDF export.
Thanks.Please check if matches this behavior and if the suggested solution works
[1467147 - Neither File Download dialog box is shown, nor error ERR_WIS_30271 occurs when saving the Web Intelligence document as Excel file in Java Report Panel after Binary Stream Maximum Size has been reached |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1467147]
Worth to have a look also to this KBA for higher SP levels
[1665049 - Save behavior is inconsistent in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI3.1 SP4 |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1665049]
PS: Just noticed also that there is a bug ADAPT01568649 for which the option for saving as Excel doesn't appear.
This is fixed in FP3.7
Thanks!

Hi all,
QUESTION 1: When we create queries in webi by selecting objects in the right hand side panel, there is a tab called "SQL" in the tool bar beside "Add Query" tab. So can anybody explain me exactly for what purpose this tab is there?
I am unable to find it as it is always disabled.
QUESTION 2: Can anybody explain me with example the use of merge dimensions?Hi
Q1 : Add Query is to add new data provider to your report, which can be on any Universe.
Q2: Merge Dimension - which is used to merge data from different data providers.
Ex: If you have two data providers ( Query 1 & Query 2) with One dimension (Year) and one measure ( Revenue) in both with data as below.
Query 1 data :
Year Revenue
2008 10000
Query 2 data :
Year Revenue
2009 20000
You can merge dimension 'year' and use the merged dimension feild in you report template to get both the rows.Like below.
Year Revenue
2008 10000
2009 20000

A strange problem of web report
When I browse a report on the webpage, I find once I click a field of the report, the browser will be frozen, I have to close the browser window since it has no response.
I also find it will appear if the report has many fields(ie, the number of columns >6).
why? I'm confused.Is it a HTML report, a JSP report, or a PDF report? If it's a PDF report, it's more likely to be a problem of Acrobat plug-in. In that case, you may want to reinstall/update your plugin and try again.

Text justification issue in crystal report
Hi,
I have MVC application with crystal report in it. I am exporting crystal report to PDF, everything except text justification (as we do in MS-Word) is not working. Even in crystal report viewer itself it's not working.
I have been trying since few days to solve text justification problem in CR. Well I have goggled a lot for this and found different available option to get the thing done. But that didn't solved my problem, I have read many replies on the crystal report discussion regarding the same but no result. I have tried four different versions of crystal report (13.0.5,13.0.6,13.0.9,13.0.13) as I found on the web that justify could work in these versions, but I was shocked when I didn't get anything useful.
For me it's like justify doesn't work in crystal report by any means. Can any one here tell me who has solved the text justification problem in crystal report. I have attached sample screen shot of word document where in I have specified my requirement of text justification.
Any positive reply would be highly appreciated.

Setting the HTML Web Reports encoding to UTF-8
Hi,
We have a problem with web reports (Reports6i with 9ias r1) showing some characters wrong(like the pound/yen symbols). The whole system (database and reports server) runs in UTF-8 characterset, but the web reports dont set any "ecoding=UTF-8" tags in the header section of the generated HTML .. so the users browser doesn't display the html correctly (unless he switches the browser from "Western European" to UTF-8 encoding himself).
Any way we can force this? i didn't found any way on setting the UTF-8 tag in the report?!
Cheers, StefanOK. I think I can answer your question. You can change the Apache settings into UTF8 of your Apache Web Server in which you deploy your reports.

Hi everybody.
I have a problem with web reports. In the web reports page I have a link with information about each report. The problem that Im having is that every time the user clicks on tthis link, it asks them for their password again. This link is in ppt form, and is in a server. The user enters their password whenever they access the reports page, and then they have to type it again to access those links. Does anybod know how to avoid this?? thank youNO. Dont hard code uid/pwd for this scenario. what you require is SSO2 to be enabled. What it does is, it will as for uid/pwd for the first time during the browser session. after that it will remember authentication information till the browser is closed. that means within the same browser session for each link click it wont ask you to authenticate.
how to enable.
go to transaction RZ10 (you may not have authorization - this is generally done by basis people)
and maintain the following profile parameters (instance)
login/accept_sso2_ticket = 1
login/create_sso2_ticket = 1
after this is done. the application server needs to be restarted. and then run bsp page system/sso2test.htm to check whether its configured properly.
Now try your application.
Do let us know how it goes.

Business Objects Webi Report looks at the wrong universe
Hi,
Problem: A Webi Report that is believed to be running off Universe A in Dev A Environment no longer works because for an unknown reason it is trying to run off Universe A (same name different version) in Dev B Environment where most of the objects do not exist.
Universe A has not been changed in either Environments. Reports were working yesterday but not today (reports were not changed too).
Any ideas what may have caused this? The only way we were able to find out that it was using the wrong universe was when we checked the Universe in the properties of the Query.
Many thanks.hi Saleem,
in the above senario, how can a WebI report automatically catch Bad Universe. (we cannot save 2 universes of same name in one folder). So how the above senario happned.
