Hide columns in a web report

Hi,
I am trying to hide the last 5 columns in my report (out of 15) just before the report is rendered. I need to have these 5 columns in my query as I have exceptions defined on them but want to hide them from users. Could you please let me know how I can achieve this in BI7.0 WAD?
Thanks,
Praveen

There are two different steps to be followed.
- First sort all your hidden fields in BEXQuery. Bring all of them either to top or bottom.
- Then In WAD, goto Analysis Item properties, enter 'data column from' and 'data column To values'
Lets say you have 4 hidden fileds then select 'data coumn from' = 4
This way, you can hide the columns in a WAD report.

Max number of columns in a Webi report

In a worst-case scenario test, I requested about 1700 columns in a Webi report, but only a little more than 300 appeared in the SQL; a TOAD request for the same 1700 columns was successful. Is there an upper limit for the number of objects that can appear in a Webi report? Is there a parameter that could increase the limit?

My eyes read the first half and my brian assumed the second half.
I dont think there is a limitaion on the number of objects that a WebI report can pull.
The only limitation I know of is the maximum number of column that you can display in the report panel; the max number is 100,000.
With the limit on the max number of column diplay in a WebI report can be translated into the max number of columns in the query panel.

Drill function implemented on Measure object column in the webi report

Post Author: madan kumar
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Hi,
I have a small issue in my project.(Maintenance Project)I created a measure object in the fact table of the existing universe and saved and exported to the repository. (Say Measure object is D where D = A-(B+C))I inserted the same object as a column between two measure objects columns of a existing WebI report.
The report has two hierarchies involved - each hierarchy has dimension objects involved.I have checked with the hierarchies to make sure that measure object is not involved.The scope of analysis is None for the query.Version is BO XI R2.
The issue is the Drill function is implemented on that particular new column.The drill function should be applicable only to the two dimension objects involved in the report.But this measure object column is also getting drilled once the Drill option is selected.I had to remove the drill optiion from the Measure object column.
Can anyone help me on this issue...
Thanks in advance...

Thanks for your reply. I did the date diff on the columns. It does not break into 3 different groups. I am using a function called previous on the date column. So the report is like this
    DATE                           Pervious (DATE)                 Date - Pervious(DATE)
01-01-2008 01:06              Null
01-01-2008 01:12              01-01-2008 01:06               :06
01-01-2008 01:18              01-01-2008 01:12               :06
01-01-2008 01:24              01-01-2008 01:18               :06
01-01-2008 01:30             01-01-2008 01:24              :06
01-01-2008 01:36             01-01-2008 01:30               :06
Basically we are breaking on the Date - Previous ( Date) column which does not work. I am not sure if there is a way to break this. I even tried it in Crystal REports XI and it does not work their either. Any help with this issue with be greatly appriciated.

How to disable drill option for one column in the WebI Report

Hi,
How to disable drill option in a column in WebI?
When the Drill option is enabled by default all the column in the report will have that enabled,
I ahve added Hierarchy in the Custom hierarhcy list in Universe.
I am using BOXI3.1 WebI Reports.
But I wanted only the hierarchy column to have that drill option enabled, rest all column should display text data.
PLease let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Cretae the variable at the report level (may be with the same definiton) and then use that variable in the table
to disable the drill. It will be displayed as normal text object.
Drill functionality is enabled only on the objetcs coming from the universe.

Rohit

Dynamic Drill Down Column wise in Webi Report

Hi All,
I need to have dynamic drill down functionality in my webi report.
For example
I have Columns;
Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Plant, No. of PO line (4 columns).
Drill down on Plant level.
When i click on plant a new column should be added in webi report.
Now my report should look like this;
Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Plant, Buyer, No. of PO line (5 columns)...(New column Buyer is added)
How to do this.
Please help me guys.
Thanks in advances!!!
Regards,
Gaurav Nayar

Hi,
What you want is possible as long as the table formatting you have helps.
What you can do is add a column to the table. Then use the following formulas
Formula in Column Name Cell:
=If(Drillfilters([Plant])="") Then "" Else Nameof([Buyer])
Formula in Column Values Cell:
=If(Drillfilters([Plant])="") Then "" Else ([Buyer])
Now, what I meant by "as long as your table formatting you have helps" is that, you need to change the border colors of the extra column to match with the report blank area, means the borders should be white in colour and the column width should be autofit and they wont be visible as they are white, once you drill on plants, the values come up.
So if your table has no border, that will be perfect.
Hope this helps.

Calculate number of columns dinamically in webi report

Hello,
I have the following problem.
I have to develop a report, that it has to show a table that their columns have to be data intervals, and their rows have to be diferent rates.
Example.
29/01/2011
30/01/2012
31/01/2013
01/02/2014
29/01/2012
30/01/2013
31/01/2014
23/03/2014
Capital
200
300
400
500
Amortization
20
10
30
30
Interest
2
2
5
4
Fees
0
0
0
0
The report has 3 prompts: Start Period Date, End Period Date and Periodicity
Where Start Period Date and End Period Date are the interval of dates
and Periodicity can be one of that values "Annual", "Semiannual", "Quarterly", "Monthly", "Weekly" and "Daily"
In the example table the promts are:
Start Period Date: 29/01/2011 (see it in the first column, first row)
End Period Date: 23/03/2014 (see it in the last column, second row)
Periodicity: "Annual"
The problem is how to calculate dinamically (in execution report time) the number of columns to show in the report and their intervals dates.
The facts view has the following structure (the BBDD is sql server):
View: loans_schedule
Columns:
loan_id --> id to another view named loans that contains all the credit operations.
reference --> id of one reference in the operation
maturity_date --> date
Capital --> rate
Amortization --> rate
Interest --> rate
Fees --> rate
Ex of view data (note that the report has to aggregate by maturity_date in the date intervals of the report table):
Loan_id
Reference
Maturity_date
Capital
Amortization
Interest
Fees

View: loans
loan_id --> link with loan_id of loans_schedule view
internal_reference --> id of the operation
reference --> 1 internal reference can have 1 or N references
Operation beginning date --> when operation starts
Operation end date --> when operation ends
The problem is how can generate dinamically the number of columns and agregate the rates into each column.
I have achieved to generate dinamically the number of columns by creating a table (isolated in the universe) that has a dimension and its values are a sequence the numbers (from 1 to 1000) and this let me to show dinamically the number of columns regarding the interval of dates introduced by the user through the report promts.
The problem is when I try to agreegate the rates information to show in the corresponding column...
I do the following formula:
     if maturity_date between (Column_Start_Date and Column_End_Date) then
          [Rate]
     else
          0
But this returns always 0, and I think that the cause is that the table that I use for calculating the columns are not linked with my facts view.
When I drag the "Maturity_Date" to the table that has the columns dinamically, Webi tells me that the objects are incompatible.
Can you help me?
Note: it is posible to add columns to the views if it helps to solve the problem.
Thanks
Pilar

Hi,
There are no direct oracle function that could be used to get the desired results.
However you could try using something like
SELECT COUNT( *)
FROM
(SELECT ROWNUM RNUM
FROM ALL_OBJECTS
WHERE ROWNUM <= TO_DATE('&1') - TO_DATE('&2') + 1
WHERE TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('&2') + RNUM - 1, 'DY') NOT IN('SAT', 'SUN');
Give the two date ranges that you want to look for with the highiest one first. i.e say for example - 01-FEB-2011 to 31-DEC-2010 would give the working days in JAN. However note that you might have to check for holidays related to that country/region (which could be added as a seperate table).
If you need to get an extra day in addition to the weekends, please give the dates accordingly
SQL> SELECT COUNT( *)
2 FROM
3 (SELECT ROWNUM RNUM
4 FROM ALL_OBJECTS
5 WHERE ROWNUM <= TO_DATE('01-FEB-2011') - TO_DATE('01-JAN-2011') + 1
6 )
7 WHERE TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01-JAN-2011') + RNUM - 1, 'DY') NOT IN('SAT', 'SUN');
COUNT(*)

Hide Column in Cross Tab Report

Hi guys,
I have an issue with the Cross Tab in CR2008.
I'm using 2 columns to calculate an other column, but these 2 columns should not be displayed in the report.
I tried to suppress the column but it still shows a white space.
I tried to change the column width, but it cant get it smaller then 0,113.
Can anyone tell me how to set the column width smaller using a formula or how to suppress the whole column.
Thanks in advance.
William

Hi William,
Instead of using all 3 columns in the crosstab, just drop your main columnn on.
In the Design window, not the Crosstab Experrt, right-click the summary field and select Format Field.
In the Common Tab, open the formula for Display String.
Now you can take the value of your summary using the CurrentFieldValue and make your total. You may need to summarize the supporting numbers to calculate properly but it should work here properly.
I've used this for things like running totals and repeating values between rows.
NOTE: This formula only returns a string so make sure you format your final value as a string.
Good luck,
Brian

Removing Columns in Web Reports

Hello Experts,
I would like to remove a column in a We report. I would like to remove the first column in a web report it should be this way by default. Is there any way to do this. Please do help me out....

Hi Sweatha,
you can try the following step:
In the specific properties of your table web item you can set the "Data Display from Value Column" to 2. This should work. But if you use any graphics this will have no effect to your graphics. Otherwise i would recommend to create a view in the Bex Analyzer and hide the column in the view. Then you can assign the view to your data provider.

Removing Scroll Bars in WEBI Report

Hi All,
I want to remove scroll bars from my WEBI reports. I have observed that even if you have only one column in the WEBI report, scroll bar still appears. Is this anything to do with page layout properties of WEBI where you can set minimum limit for horizontal records per page as 20? Can anybody please help me with this?
Thanks,
Shweta.

Hi,
We also wanted to have the same thing,we tried to reduce the size of the report and tried to change the page size.
We did everything to remove that scroll bar and did not achieve it, hence we loged a case with SAP BO and they said " this is how the tool is".
But they took it as the enhancement request dont know what is the status on that.

Hiding refresh button in Webi Report

Hello experts,
I would like to hide 'refresh' button on webi report in XI 3.1. One way to do this is using rights which I don't intend to use at this stage.
Do we have any other way out to do this task?
Many thanks in advance
Regards,
John

Options:
a) roll your own viewer/portal - probably the safest bet, although a bit unwieldy if Infoview works fine and you only want to make this specific change
b) make changes to Infoview's javascript files that render the toolbar buttons - entirely unsupported by SAP as well as a maintenance headache during upgrades
c) ...revisit your reasons for not being able to disable refresh of the report to users - surely there's a security matrix that satisfies your requirement. If there isn't (meaning that, for whatever reason you need these users to refresh against this content area in normal scenarios but want it disabled for this portion of your workflow) - then there are kludgy "work arounds" like adding/removing the user to/from a "no refresh" group you've created in the CMC, programmatically, when running the report(s)
good luck

Hide/Unhide Columns in WEBI Report output

We have a WEBI report which has 2 columns/measures to display the cost in EUR and USD. User would like to have the flexibility to filter the column so as to display USD or EUR cost column. Is it possible to hide/unhide column in WEBI. Can we have a input control on multiple measures so that user can dynamically select which measures they want to see on report.
Its possible in BEx Analyser using filter option on key figure. Is simillar functionality available in WEBI? We're on BO 3.1 XI. Is thre any other way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Milind

hi,
i think it is not possible to hide a column based on condition. but in webi 4.0 u have an option using which, u can hide/ show a table based on the user selection. in ur scenario, create two tables, one with value in USD and other in EU, super impose the table. then right onthe table and select "Format cell". in that u ll have a option to hide the table based on condition. select that and apply the condition.
see the follwoing url for more info : http://bihappyblog.com/2011/11/05/dynamic-visibility-in-webi/
thank u,

Web Report - Hide Repeated Values

My web report hides repeated values regardless of the query setting.
Is there any way to set a specific column to not hide repeated values? Using the table API?
Thanks!

dear Kenneth,
have you try to remove the check mark of properties 'suppress repeated text' in 'specific' section of your web item 'table' in web template ?
or you can give parameter SUPPRESS_REPETITION_TEXTS for web item 'table' with value blank
<param name='SUPPRESS_REPETITION_TEXTS' value=' '>
