Hiding webi report row in output context

Hello,
I wanted to know if there is a way to hide a webi report row. ( I am not interested in filtering at query level).
Now for example, say a query returns say
USA 800
UK 200
APAC 100
JAPAN 50
Now i want to hide the row with JAPAN in the report output context. I am wondering if this is possible using some formulae.
I am not interested in hiding data with say alerter and cell color, that will only create an empty row look when exported to PDF or Excel.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
Yes it is possible if you write down a formula in that column.
If "Country" = "JAPAN" then ""
This will show nothing in the column and thn you can set column property to hide if there is nothing.

Bashir Awan

When web reports returns no output

What happens when a web reports generates no output?
I have the case where the browser downloads a text file which has my reports server name.
(e.g. repserverxx.txt)
Please advise.

Since no one has responded and I've found a solution myself I shall post my findings:
If I set the DESTYPE to CACHE and the DESFORMAT to DELIMITED, the resulting data is displayed in the browser which can then be saved away to the local machine using FILE/SAVE from the menu bar. This is the best I can come up with. The users get what they want , it just means they can't run the report directly to a file from the parameter form, they have to preview the output then save.

Web report - Right click for context menu

I believe SAP switched the way (left mouse button to right one) to get web report context menu as of BW 3.5. I am looking for the official documentation for it. I could not find it in online help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b2/e50138fede083de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Does anyone knows where I can find it?
Thanks in advance.

I'm using Firefox 4.0.1 on Ubuntu 9.10 32 bit. Every time I can reproduce this bug, I'm able to revert it by killing the Adoble Flash process:
Example:
$ ps ax | grep libflashplayer.so
2072 ? Rl 0:05 /opt/firefox/plugin-container /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so -omnijar /opt/firefox/omni.jar 32533 true plugin
2229 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep libflashplayer.so
$ kill 2072
Plugin version: Shockwave Flash 10.2 r159
Hope this helps to find the cause.

Web report in PDF output differently with different parameter string delimiter.

Hi guys.
Thanks for the two reply to my previous question regarding matrix report.
I have another question,
I invoke a report in web browser, so I put
http://web-server/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe?server=aquarium+report=salmon.rdf+userid=salmon/fish@seaworld+desformat=PDF+destype=cache+paramform=no+p_fishid="123"+p_exp="01-JAN-2002"+p_exp2="01-APR-2002"
The above results an empty PDF report output, i.e., no data.
But if I do this,
http://web-server/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe?server=aquarium+report=salmon.rdf+userid=salmon/fish@seaworld+desformat=PDF+destype=cache+paramform=no+p_fishid='123'+p_exp='01-JAN-2002'+p_exp2='01-APR-2002'
Then the report will work.
The ONLY difference, is that my parameters values for the first (error) URL I uses " and for the second (successful) I uses ' to delimit it.
This only happens when DESFORMAT=PDF, I tried using Text or HTML, both worked fine with both string delimiters (" and ').
Help.

Hi, thanks for answering.
But if I use double quotes, no data is shown in the PDF. Just an empty report format. Is there any work around this?
I am using Oracle Report 6i running on Windows NT 4 and Oracle 8i database.

But when i am giving block filter i am getting only the distinct activity and Time not as required output.
Please help...

Hi Sathish,
I am not 100% clear on what you are trying to do but you should be able to use a max() or min() function on the datetime, since it appears you are trying to get the first one (in which case you should use min()).
Does that help?
Thanks

Schedule webi report to destination to Inbox AND send email notification

I'm writing a new process that will schedule a webi report. The output of the report needs to be delivered to multiple user's BO Inboxes AND an email notification (without the report attached) needs to be sent telling them that they have a new report to view in their Inbox. Trying to mimic how this is done via CMC Schedule - Notification and Destination tabs.
I can get it to deliver the report to the Inbox and I can get it to send an email seperately, but the problem I'm running into is that I can't get it to do both in the same process. Here is the code snippet that I've written. Any assistance would be appreciated.
// Retrieve the managed plugin
IInfoObjects managedInfoObjects = infoStore.query("Select SI_DEST_SCHEDULEOPTIONS, SI_PROGID From CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS Where SI_NAME = 'CrystalEnterprise.Managed'");
IInfoObject infoObject = (IInfoObject)managedInfoObjects.get(0);
IDestinationPlugin destinationPlugin = (IDestinationPlugin)infoObject;
IManaged managed = (IManaged)destinationPlugin;
// Set the destination to inbox
IManagedOptions managedOptions = (IManagedOptions)managed.getScheduleOptions();
managedOptions.setDestinationOption(IManagedOptions.CeDestinationOption.ceInbox);
managedOptions.setSendOption(IManagedOptions.CeManagedSendOption.ceCopy);
managedOptions.setIncludeInstance(true);
managedOptions.getDestinations().add(new Integer(ditUserID1));
managedOptions.getDestinations().add(new Integer(ditUserID2));
managedOptions.getDestinations().add(new Integer(ditUserID3));
scheduleInfo.getDestination().setFromPlugin(managed);
// Retrieve the smtp plugin. to send email notification
IInfoObjects smtpInfoObjects = infoStore.query("Select SI_DEST_SCHEDULEOPTIONS, SI_PROGID From CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS Where SI_PARENTID = 29 AND SI_NAME = 'CrystalEnterprise.Smtp'");
IInfoObject smtpInfoObject = (IInfoObject)smtpInfoObjects.get(0);
IDestinationPlugin smtpDestinationPlugin = (IDestinationPlugin)smtpInfoObject;
// Set to email notification on success
ISMTP smtp = (ISMTP)smtpDestinationPlugin;
ISMTPOptions smtpOptions = (ISMTPOptions)smtp.getScheduleOptions();
smtpOptions.setServerName("mailhost.XXXXX.net");
smtpOptions.setPort(25);
smtpOptions.setDomainName("XXXXX.com");
smtpOptions.setSenderAddress("XXXXX.com");
smtpOptions.setSubject("Indicative Data Update Reports");
smtpOptions.getToAddresses().add("XXXXX.com");
smtpOptions.setMessage("Test Message");
smtpOptions.setSMTPAuthenticationType(CeSMTPAuthentication.NONE);
scheduleInfo.getNotifications().getDestinationsOnFailure().add("New");
scheduleInfo.getDestination().setFromPlugin(smtp);
Edited by: Shannon Maret on Apr 21, 2009 7:02 PM

One thing to keep in mind is that "scheduling to SMTP" is different from "scheduling with email notification", and it looks like you're conflating the two. The ISchedulingInfo.getDestinations() is the access point for scheduling to SMTP and ISchedulingINfo.getNotifications() is the access point for scheduling with Notification.
> scheduleInfo.getNotifications().getDestinationsOnFailure().add("New");
You'd add the SI_PROGID of the SMTP Destination here, and work with the returned IDestination to set the destination parameters.

Ted Ueda

Hiding rows in Web report

I am currently hiding an entire row via ABAP classes using 'style="display:none"' however there is a thick gridline where the hiding row is. Has anyone encountered this before and is there a better way to hide rows? I have hidden columns using 'style="display:none"' and the report looks ok, but hiding rows this way leaves thick gridlines where the rows use to be.
mark

It seems the problem is the method for c_cell_td_extend will only hide the <TD>, but the <TR> will still exist, thus the gridline displaying in the report. does anyone know of a way to clear the <TR> as well for web templates?

Output mismatch between BEx query output and WebI Report output

Hi All,
I have a BEx query in which there are only characteristics placed in rows.
There are combinations of the values of the characteristics giving different records in the query output.
Date is one of the characterisctics in the query output.
There is an output mismatch between the query output and the WebI report output in the following case:
When there are 'Not Assigned' or '#' or blank values, there are additional entries(rows) in the WebI report, giving repeating or wrong entries in the Date field. This is incorrect data.
Is this because of the 'Not Assigned' or '#' or blank values of the Characteristics or is there any other reason?
How do I fix this?
Please helo me with this.
Thanks and Regards,
Srilakshmi B

Hi Rajesh,
I need to verify the WebI report output for records with # and 'Not assigned' values for the cHracteristics in the report.
So I cannot check the WebI report by hiding the # or Not assigned values.
The problem is that in the Query output the records are like these shown below:
Char1                    CHar2                          CHar3                       Date field
A                             B                                 C                                Date1
#(Not assgined)      #(Not assgined)      #(Not assgined)             No value
Where as the WebI report output is as below:
Char1                    CHar2                          CHar3                       Date field
A                             B                                 C                                Date1
#(Not assgined)      #(Not assgined)      #(Not assgined)            Date1
As shown here, there are wrong/repeating entries for the Date field in the WebI report output.
Please check this and let me know what could be the issue and how do I fix it.
Thanks and Regards,
Srilakshmi B

Repeating row texts when exporting web report to Excel

Dear all,
When exporting a web report (including a structure/hierarchy) to Excel (via the 'export to excel button), the row texts (e.g. balance sheet texts) appear twice (column A and B)in the Excel result.
When using the web context menu 'Export to Excel' this issue does not occur.
I am using a BW 3.5 system which has been upgraded to support pack 16.
I assume it is the combination of the structure and the 'export to excel' functionality that does not match up, because when I switch off the hierarchy functionality in the web report query properties, the export to excel does not give me any problems.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Arjan.

Did you write that software, COTS package called Medgate?
If not then ask that company for support. No one here would know how to fix it. They are using the CR RDC report engine.
Thank you
Don

We are using BI 7.0, release 701 and level 008. We are facing problem in WAD (web report output). When ever we do 'Select filter' for key figures and 'change the order' of key figures, it does not get reflected in new order. Though drag and drop of key figures is working.
Though same change order is working fine in Bex Analyser.
Kindly suggest some inputs.
Thanks.

Hi,
On Which Service Pack are you on?WAD has this feature of re arranging the keyfigures in BI 7.0 for SPS 14...

How to add A single row at the middle of the table in a Webi report

Hi,
I created a Webi report using Universe(Created universe using bex query).Now i have a requirement to display a row at the middle of a report. Can you please tell me ,how to add a sigle row at the middle of a Webi report.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Monika

Hi Monika,
It is not really possible to add a row (I assume you mean of unrelated data) to the middle of a table in a report. You can add a new table with a single row between two tables. For instance you could add a new one row table, or even single cells which are positioned relatively between two tables. Possibly a block on top of another. But this gets tricky.
Can you explain in more detail what you are trying to do?
Thanks

Hiding the blank cells in Webi report - BO 4.0

Hi,
I have created a webi report in which i have used different types of blocks
1) Form table
2) Verticle table
3) Horizontal table.
so now in real time there chances that some of the blocks will not have any data.(i.e it displays blank cell) in the report.
so now i have to hide only the blank cells and not the table headers.that means though the cells are blank i have to display headers.
what formatting changes i need to achieve this in Webi Report.
If anybody does this please let me know the step by step logic in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Naga Nanda Kishore.

Hi,
We cannot hide specifc cells in WebI, however we can choose to whether to display or not empty measure values and empty dimension value.
So you need to select the desired block-> Right Click and Select Format Table-> Uncheck Show rows with empty dimension values or Show rows with empty measure values whichever is required to be hidden.
Hope this helps.

Manpreet

How to make Management of row level restrictions easy for webi reports?

Hi all
Our BO Product version is 12.3.0.601 (BO 3.1)
We are applying row level security for webi reports at universe level...
Since Universes are more in Number we have to create same restrictions and apply it to the users lets take a restrictions on region....which is common across all universes.
So the problem lies with the management of restrictions created at universe level.
Can we have a setup in where we can centralized the restirctions at a place so that management would be easy ......???
Shall we have to import the roles(restrictions) from R/3 or BW or Database level...?
Then how we will restrict our report (webi) to a region?????
So basically webi reports should run with the restrictions lets say region....How we will achieve this?/
Thanks and Regards
Ritu Raj

Hi,
what is your Datasource?
If its SAP BW i would highly recommend you use the SAP Authentication in your BOE XI 3.1 So the users log into BOE with their SAP Username and Password and than the Data restriction of your BW takes place when the users run their Reports.
Informations on how to confiure the SAP Authentication you will find in the installation Guide of the SAP ITK.

-Seb.
